At the R.M. Court to-day, Mr Kirk, bootmaker, sued Mr James Brown, of Waverley, for three blankets and a picture. Kirk had sold his household effects to Brown about two years ago, but did not include these articles in the list. Defendant said he did include them, and produced a receipt in general terras. Judgment for defendant. A difficulty is caused at this seaport by the want of a resident Sheep Inspector to give a certificate for shipment of clean sheep. Mr Mackenzie is suspended from duty, pending his removal to another district, and the new inspector is not here yet, Mr Barker wanted to ship two rams to Nelson by the Patea steamer to-day, but could not do so for want of the special certificate. They have had to be sent to Wanganui (40 miles) for shipment, because Mr Grerse’s successor happens to be there on duty.

A telegram from Otautu states that the Nightcaps section of the Western railway will be ready for traffic next week. The line is ten miles and a-half in length.
