NAPIER.
This day
A hotel at Wanstead was destroyed by fire yesterday at noon. The insurances on the stock and furniture are £250, and on the building £500* in the South British Co. Half of the latter was rein* sured in the National.
Mr Goodall, who is now engaged by the Board to design the harbour works, has discovered that the source of the travelling shingle is not in the rivers running into the bay, but that it comes from the cliffs leading towards Cape Kidnapper.
