We would upecially remind our readers that the population census is to be taken on the morning of Monday next, March 29th. It i« a matter of great importance that all householders and occupiers should pay particular attention to the printed rules On each form, anil give the enumerator and hub-enir v >oiatoi\s every possible assistance, so that the return may be aceunte. Any person without a form cm obtain one on applying to the sub-en n ineidtor for the district, or to Ml Warden Kenrick. Any one wilfully refusing to fill up, sign, or return the iorm, or who wilfully makes a false return, is liable to a heavy penalty. In our mining i\p<>it it will be se.-n that the! eimhinij ju«t tiuihhed foi tii ■ Wai«»ron^oiu u (j-.M.

The mine has nover had a I'.iir chance yet. Ohinemuri County Council invito tondors for making some O'i chiiins of Ngatimunga road, Waitea. Tenders close next Tuesday ; see advertisement. Notice of forfeiture of several licensed holding at Karangahake appears in tnis i^sue. Residents in the Cambridge district being anxious that the reefs to which atten | tion has been directed of Kite, and which | aie situated on Mr Brunskill's land (Maungakawa) should be well and systematically pmspected, have, we aie inionned tluougu Mr Tho*. Wells engaged the services ot Sir IT. Hormbrook, ot Tc Aiolia, a miner of great experience and skill, who is expected to start woik early next week. We hope (he Waitoa Road Bon id will liave something done before the wet weather sets in to the Te Kawana road, the outlet for the lower Waitoa settlers to Te Arolm, for if left as at present directly the weather bleaks it will be almost impassable. A biimll outlay, say of. £30 to £40 even, would pnt it in a lair condition. That portion of road from (lie flint railway crowing to a little bej'ond Mr [ Holden's farm, a distance of say a mile w ould be greatly improved if only 1 ploughed and harrowed ; whilst further on ior a distance of a quarter of a mile or so each side of the budge ciossmg the 1 main Government drain, tho thin crust of the road has bioken through in many places, and it is now ically dangerous to travel over. The drain on the upper side requires deepening (and plenty of fall is available, as the diain reieired to is fully 3ft above the level of the Government drain), and the ioad to be pioperly foimed. Tho Waitoa ltoad 13oaid,wSo have evei shown a desire to improve to the utmost extent available funds would admit of, the roads in the district under their charge, will, we feel sine, have tho much-needed work referred to carried out : at an early date. The contractors have made good pro- [ g-ress with the Karangnbake-Mackaytown road. Messrs Baines and party and Kelly and party, contractors tor the first and last sections, will probably have completed their portion in the oouise ot* another week. Messrs Marsh and Wilson, who have the middle section to carry out, havft met with some heavy still" cutting, und will certainly requiie an extension ot time, which will no doubt be #idnr«>d them, roi they will be able to cam but small wages at ,the work, from the low price at \i Inch it was taken. The polling for the £b'000 loan at 11amiltuii on Wednesday \\ us a complete success. Oi the 24u burgess.es 179 polled, 177 votes beui£ in lavom of the loan, one int'oiinal, and one against. On Tuesday last a little gill on a visit to Te Aroha with hei uncle, Mr Arkel), fiom Auckland, accidentally lell irom the lire escape at the lear of the Hot Spunks j iloiei, a distance of tweKe feet ; and alj though beverely shaken, yet wondeiiul to | sa} no bones weie , bioken, and she was j able to return to Auckland this week, ap- j patently but little the worse of her tumble. The contractors for all three sections of the Waitekauri road have stai ted woikj also the contractor ior Karangalmke Hill Track. The next half-yearly Katikati fair will be held on Eabter Monday at Mr Me Donnell's sale yards Uiatara. Particulars will appear in a future adveitisement. OliMieinuri Board of Works meet at Paeioa to-day, to select the most desirable site for a magazine for explosives. Application lias been made to the Te Aroha Licensing Bench by Mr John Lloyd, of the Cominexcial Hotel, Waiolongomai, lequef-ting that Ins license be cancelled fronr 10 p.m. Saturday 27th inst, in consequence of the hotel having been purchased by Air Ehrenfiied, brewer, from Mr Jagger, brewer, and Mr Ebreufried desires that it should be closed. The Thames correspondent of the Auckland Herald thus refers to Mr LaMonte's recent visit to le Aroha : — '• Mi LaMonte speaks in eulogistic teuns ot the Tui (Jreek, as containing a large percentage of almost self-fluxing ore." Next Frisco mail closes on Monday. We are informed that, the shareholders in the Champion Lode claims at Tui, have made arrangements with the proprietors of the New Ei a Battery, Woioiongomai, for the treatment of some 40 or 50 tons of ore at an early date. r Ihe proprietors of this battery have resolved upon erecting two roasting furnaces in connection therewith. Tho £5 to be raised by Waiorongomai residents towards cost of repairing 'the load near Jansen's was forwarded to *he County Clerk a week ago ; it is to be hoped no time will be lost in proceeding with the work. The Colonial Secretary arrived on a short visit to To Aroha this week. Thiough the enterprise of Mr Hudson (District Tiallic Manager), Te Aroha is to be favoured with anothei party of excursionists dui mg the coming week. The* special I lain will leave Auckland 'on Friday next at 2 p.m., and is timed to reach Te Aroha at 8.35 p.m., btaiting on the re-

turn journey at 4 p.m. on Sunday. Ffiros: first clasg, 20s; peuond class, 1.5s ; children 3 yo.iis of ago free. Although on tlio occasion of the ldHt excursion as many did not come an were expected, we hope ample preparations will bo made for arcoinmo dating fi large party of excursionists next week, and that a special effort vill be put foith to make them all comfortable, and their trip an enjoyable one. Do not (aught at that drunken man reeling through the streets. However ludicious the sight may be, just pause and think. Me is going home to Home tender heart that will throb with intense agony ; some doting mother perhaps, who will grieve over the downfall of him who wan once her sinless boy ■ or perhaps a fond wife whose heart will almost break witli grief as she vio vs the destruction of hoi idol : or it may be a loving sister, who will fc>hod bitter tears ovei the demanalion of her brothci, shorn of manliness and self-respect. As >oui eje follows the m-ebi-iatc! h uncertain footsteps, iccord a solemn vow in heaven that, while youi life endures, you will do all that within you lies to fuithor the cause of temperance. — Alliance Mews. The following tenders were received by Mr C. A. Comes for editing quartz from No 3 Champion Lod* to steamer landing; us might be leqnired: — P. Quinian (accepted) per ton, £1 5s ; Ilethciington and MoNight. £1 14s 6d ; M. O'Donoghuc, £2 | Corboy and Wallace, M2 : James ,Urr, £2 10a. Mr Livingstone will probably have corn pleted his contract in connection with the Te Aroha station grounds within the next couple of weeks j all the ballasting is completed, and but little remains to be be done, beyond forming the road on to Bridge street and a little swamp tilling at rear of goods shed. In another column we give some extracts iiom a repoit of a meeting held at Hamilton on Monday List in connection with the working of the Hospital and Chatitable Institutions Act in coimtiy districts, and some remaiks made at .same meeting with respect thereto by our meia- . ber, Mr WUyte. At the meeting- ot tlu I United Boaid held in Auckland on the [ previous Friday, a letter was read from the Premier's oiHco, stating that the Government would not indemnify the mem- | hers against any loas in the event of the Hoard being unable to entorce payment of the demand-) made on local bodies. The Board have levied a rate of one-fifteenth of a penny lor charitable aid, and onetwelfth of a penny for hospital pin poses. Mr L. Lake at same meeting g.ive notice of motion, " That the CouiH.es of Waipa, Waikato, and Raglan and the Borough of Ilannlt >n be eep irated from the Auckland Distnet for hospital and charitable aid purposes." Arrangements have been made by which in case ot any dig rdpancies between the Smoking Go's letuin and the pai ties dc-ir I h)j, to be ! 1 oie, uispuLe* can be icfeiied to .hi arbiti.itoi in do prison ol Mi Be"ne wil-s, the well-k.i -vn assayer to the i3<mk oi aow /'ealanc . i the Thames.
