The football match which was arranged to take place to-day between Hamilton and Morrinsville and Te Aroha combined, has been postponed.

H. & Co. are now in the midst of their annual winter stockstaking sale, they aim high and are endeavouring to clear out the whole of their extensive and well-selected stock duriug this clearing sale.

There is no falling off in the extent of the mining operations at Mount Morgan. Tho April report shows that 900 men were employed by the company; that 7943 tons of crushing stuff were raised and 7354 tons treated ; and that the gold obtained amounted to 11,518 oz, which is about equivalent to the monthly output of the best Wit'watersrand properties. ;; In consequence of the large increase of ' business in the Coromandel and Thames. Warden’s Courts Mr H. Eyre Kenny found it impossable to be present at Te Aroha on. Friday, the day {appointed for., his visit. This was much to be regretted, as several important cases were to come before him, several of which were adjourned to be heard at Paeroa ongthe 'flth prox, while' others were delayed till the next court. If mining business continues as at present there is ample room Ho place another Warden in this Hauraki district; it is much too extensive to be worked by one man. .

We have received from Mr Thos. Hunte-, of Waharoa, a sample of potatoes new to this colony, viz., ‘Eindlay’s Teannie Deans.’ Mr Hunter says : They are equally good as an early, or main crop potato. As an early •potato they come fully 2 weeks earlier than any other kind I have grown, and as a main crop they are [perfect, this year they have yielded rather more than 16 tons per acre. They are- vigorous growers,’ scarcely a set missing, and of very good shape. The eyes are very shallow, so there is scarcely any waste in paring. Mr Findlay, the we 1 known Scotch potato expert,'considers they Are the best kind lhe has ever raised, and after growing them-two seasons T endorse his opinion. . There has always been a very keen running between the Te Aroha schoolboys and the Waiorongomai schoolboys (past and present). In the first match this season Te Aroha. themselves the better team'by 8 points to nil. The second match eventuated yesterday, in Mr G. Lipsey’s paddock. The Waiorongomai boys, who ranged between the biggest and smallest on the field, played with marked determination throughout the game, as also did Te Aroha. After a very friendly and well contested game Te Aroha left the field victorious by 9 points to 6. For Te Aroha, Bowden played with the precision of a senior, his two tries being the outcome of real good play. Lavery was behind, no forward on the field, his try being gained after a pretty .piece of play on the part of P. Maingay and Clough. Of the remainder of Te Aroha it is hard to particularize, as they one and all played sterling games. The 2 tries for Waiorongomai were gained by Burehill and Andrews, It was. after a splendid run that the latter obtained his score. For the Waiorongomai, the best were Hill, Stewart, Young and Andrews. The Waiorongomai boys have much to bn proud of on their display of football. Mr F. Woods ruled the youngsters, and gave every satisfaction to both sides alike, while Messrs Rennick and Lipsey looked after the line.
