TENUI NOTES.

(By Our Own Correspondent.)

" Give a dog» bad name, and you may as well hang him," We have a very strange specimen of the oanine ordfir in our midst that would Jo credit to Fillis' circus, With ease it can, so some say, open and shut doors, and, (like tho man that swallowed stones and rattled them in his stomach without being inconvenienced in the least), swallow wholesale, tea and sugar, tins of kippered herring, whi^^^^^^^^^^^H gre'^^^^^^^^^H fall > witi^^^^^^^^^H bim^^^^^^^^^^^^H ' ) —— - 'Advance Tenui I Several weddings ; have recently been celebrated in Mas- ■ terton, and 'JVnui cannot be left be--1 hind, Two well known settlers,. Mr 1 Samuel Holes and Miss Caroline Burling, were married the other day. They say "it never rains but it i pours," who's next? A young lady happened to be transacting some busi- , ncßs in the Post Office at the time, \ and innocently asked how it (the 1 marriage) was donp, Her beau was ' outside, aud our registrar facetiously 1 told her to step outside, bring him in, ' and he would be happy to give her ut . practical lesson. Needless to say she was not on. ■ Mr Hog?, our representative, has stumped through his constituency giving bore and there an account of bis stewardship, but although bo condescended to call on a few of the electors in this district he did not think it worth while to address us publicly. Soiao of his supporters 1 think he haa treated them shabbily, whilst others think be has treated them handsomely by not inflicting upon them a re-liasb of what he has already said. Now the session is on we suppose ho will find his Parliamentary duties demand such rigid attention that bis voice will not be , heard amongst us until aftor the i session, He has a good number of followers in this district, but it depends entirely how they are treated by him that support is accorded at the right moment. He has not been requested to "grind any axe" for us, but still wo think ho might tell us what axes he has ground for others,
