A nnltli;- meeting, convened by Mr F. Pavltfc. wa* held in To Aroha Pnhlfa H.-iU on M.vdiy evening last, Mr P.

Term*, one penny on appHcatinn, two ponce on allotment, and balance if required, by culls not to exceed one penny per "hare per month. It was was revolver! on tho motion on Mr — seconded by Mr Mo-jqs Hotchrn, that u c»mpnnv, snc'i as proposed, bo formed. It was further resolved th.it tho provisional oornmittue previously appointed, remain in nfluuj tor the preKcnt to carry out neces-Mu-y Hinui?r»in.Mits. Wo are informed 0500shiiios h.tve already hwn allocated locally. The secretary of the company is Mr.Lmi's Mills. The treatment which To. Avoha has roccivc.l at th« han.lrt of trovem-mmi; as shown in the I'nblio Works statement; has croatcd in this nei«hhnnrh(«)d a ctrong feeling of diseoni tcjitmpnt. ' It vt-xa expected that at loiiflfc some portion, if not the whole, of tlm £500 promised by tho latn Government (an.l £or which the Domain Boar I was '.requested to send to Wellington a aohclnleof the works ifc propose.! to carry out) wonl I have been granted thh veav, but i he expectation has nor been roilisoi. This disappointment is all tho more keenly felt bocau-ie while To Aroha is left out in the cold a sum of £3000 has boon placed on the e^timatosiov hnpvovenvnts to tho biths an I fi-oan Is at Ruora.i, a phv-e which has alr&Hy had spent upon it mu*h more than i(,s duo shire of pnb ie money. On tho manifest; injustice which has been done to this district we have not spacj to di'ftto in this isavie, but wn purpose referring at length in our next; to this important subject. We may here montion that the Domvin ani Town Biawls have taken action in the matter, and havo mvlp such r«ipre*onfcation^ to tho member for the district, an I other members of tho House, a? will leal to tho claims of To Axoha receiving fair consideration by tho present Ministry.
