NELSON.
This day,
Pitiable tales having been received of the distress occasioned by the floods at Motueka, where many of the settlers have lost their all—horses, stock, crops, and in some cases the land itself, a public meeting was called by the Mayor for last night, which was well attended, the Bishops of Nelson and Melanesia, and Messrs Curtis and Sharp, M's.H.R., taking part in the proceedings ; a resolution of sympathy was passed, and a committee appointed to collect subscriptions : ninety pounds were paid in the room. •
