OPUNAKE.
This day.
The Hon. Mrßryce arrived at Parib&ka on Wednesday evening, and here last night. This morning a deputation of Opunake citizens waited on him, and presented him with an address congratulary upon his successful opening of the King Country. Mr Bryce thanked the deputation, and took occasion to correct the mistake he made in telegraphing his remarks after his arrival at New Plymouth, stating the King Country might now be considered as opened up. What he did say was, and* he was careful to lay the distinction, that the King Country might be considered open for surveys, and for road and railway purposes, but with regard to other surveys he anticipated considerable delay. He again referred to the delays in taking sura veys of the Waikato, and said if that bad state of things continued there must be delays. ■
A deputation re local matters also waited on Mr Bryce, and three cheers were given for him as he left for Manaia.
