TELEGRAPHIC NEWS. A company is to ba formed lo work n promising coal find at Great Barrier Island. The Man swat n Radway Company propose supplying carriages with ihe electric Corbett, son of Major-General Corbett, and who himself held the Queen’s commission, died in Hamilton Hospital on Tuesday. , . As the result of the low prices for stock, butter, and fruit, numbers of the country settlers in Auckland are turning their attention to the mere extensive cultivation of breadstuff. It is stated that there is some dissatisfaction at the fact that Ihe tender accepted for the food supply at the Auckland Volunteer encampment is only at the rate of 9d per head, this sum being considered too low. , At a meeting of ladies interested in having a separate ward tor women in connection with the Dunedin hospital, after an address by Dr Batchelor, those present agreed lo collect a certain sum each, by which moans the necessary amount will, it is believed, ba speedily raised. In the case against Christie, sentenced at Oamaru to four months under the Bankruptcy Act, it appears that Judge Ward committed him to the common gaol at Oamaru, but, as there is no common gaol there, th® quashing of the conviction will probably follow in conformity with the ruling in Garvey’s case. Tee Quoi, who acted as interpreter at Auckland Police Court in a recent charge against Chinese for mutilating cattle, has reported to the police that on Saturday night a Chinaman made an attempt to stub him. Quoi has been frequently threatened since ho assisted the prosecution in the c iso mentioned. Hurricanes at Samoa.—March and April are hurricane months at Samoa, and there are records of disaster in years gone by which were bad enough, though not so teirible as that which occurred on the 16th ult. In his work, “ Coral Lands,” Mr Stonebewer Cooper says : — tc A blow may be looked for in January, but it often happens that a year passes without a gale of any severity. February is, as a rule tine, but a very severe ‘ blow ’ occurred in February of 1865, when a barque was wrecked in the harbour of Apia, and the Island of Manono laid almost bare, as the effect of the hurricane. March is considered the moat boisterous month in tba year, though there are frequent exceptions to the rule Iu 1850 a hurri-

cane occurred, and two ships and a schooner mere wrecked at Apia, and for fifteen years afterwards the - islands were entirely free from anything worse than strong gales. Sometimes these are very local. For instance, in January of 1870 a veritable cyclone passed over Tutuila, but did not touch the other islands.
