AUCKLAND.
This day.
Mir Evans, Superintendent of Railways New South: Wales, who arrived recently in Auckland on leave, and visits the south to inspect its tramways and on private business, took his departure for Wellington last night by the Aravrata. It-is possible that should Sir Henry Parkes consent and Evans' time and inclination permit, Government may avail themselves of his presence to obtain a report from him as to the management of our railways.
Evidence before R.C. Baritow Esq., 8.M., is being taken this morning at the Industrial Home enquiry.
