f !■' 11 0 M OUR CORUES PON DEN T,] A nuicli needed jiieco of work is now being attended to on the River Bank-road. The culvert near the railway station which was damaged and partially stripped of gravel during the Isat high flood is being put in repair. Another matter which requires attention is the road from said culvert to the gate leading into the railway station. About three chains require forming and gravelling. Being level, the formation will cost very little, and the work if done would greatly benefit coaches and carriers.
(By Telegraph.)

Dr Wilkins was sent for, and promptly attended. The boy’s eyesight is believed not to be injured, though the whole of his face is burned from chin to forehead.
