DUNEDIN.
Yesterday.
The proprietors of the "R.oslyn Woollen Mills, Messrs Ross and Glendinning, are thoroughly satisfied with the electric light which they have been using for some months. Work in the mill goes on continually all night long, so that the light has been thoroughly tested. The cost is much less than gas, but the steam motive power used for the spinning niaches is also used to generate the electricity. The big dredge is getting a thorough overhaul, and will tackle the bar agaiu at the first favorable opportunity. She has been dredging beside the wharves at Port Chalmers for some months. ;
This day. Arrived: Mennock, Captain Murray, 92 days from London.
