THE KAIMAI GOLDFIELD VIA WAIKATO.

Wupn tVe Kaimai blcok vm opened to prospect ra by lion Fapaea and the otbtr owners, we published ap<rtion of Mr Halooinbe's report from tho bluo books to show that tha new goldfteld would be eaiily approachable from Waikato, tad serv* as a certaiu outlet for the sale of Waikato f»t cattle, and possibly of other VVaikato produce. Ilia matter is one of importance to the tettlers of this diilriofc fir, as Ins been recently very truly said, if Waikato centimes ta increase her aupply of fat cattle in the same ratio that the has done during the last two yeais, thus dutriot alone will •oon more than meet the requirements of the Auckland meat market. It is desirable, therefore, that such outlet! as the goldfields aff jrd for suth produce should be made available for our settlers. It is with this matter in view that we bave taade further enquiries into the practicability of the routejbetween Cambridge and Tauranga by way of Kaimai and Tupapi, or,, ra'har Kuranm— aud fijid that from Cambridge to Kuranui there is a very passable dray road. After leaving Hiniwera the road turuu up the Tliam s Valley by Ahirau and the M»ng«whero tt'eiin on to the Thames [ river, over* which there was abridge at the time of the war, but, which is now broken dov n. Some tweuty pounds, however, or less, would build a substantial i bridge ovtr the Things riVer at this | poiot, as tbe stream i« uot more than I fourteen feet uiou, rikl runn between •teep rocky bank*, wbieii, in our early days, on a good staple chaser, we sh uld , h»ve thought nothing of Uking. Fiom this creasing np to Kurniru there in a tolerably good droy road, nnd thenc* to Kaimai, a diatance of about nine milei tbrough bu«b, the only diflkn t portion, but, by ue njrnns an innurmountablo one, is that rising the range frm Kuianui, the bu»h bung most y fl»t table land, intersected by streamn. From Kaimai there i» vow a road constantly need by tbe natives for drays, which leads right into the Ttiuianga township. Such being the case, and oonndering the »cry small outlay that probably would he n> ceaia^y to nmlce tb« portion of the road panaable for drays through, the bush, between Kurar.ui and Kaimni, we would urge upon tbe Colonial Government the desirability of as soon as practicable undertaking the work. The winter is rapMly breaking, aud, when once the fine weather seta fairly wj, say in another month, we do not soe how a partyof the Armed C mstabulay could be better employed tian in making the required bridge ov-er the Thames rxvtr, and iv rendering (ho I inn track between Kuranui aud £a : tnai pra-tiuable for dr*y*. This done, wo should have another market for our Waikato produo« ) I and a considerable extent of valuable ' coiintr), much of it in the hands of the Government, would be.opened up for settlement..

Auckland Ai^Pcjaa Railway. — The tetilera of Te Awamutu b**e, it will be ■eon, met and urged upon the Government tho desirability of continuing the line a* speedily a«j-osaible to i\>e frontier. The funds p-oiosed by the Government to Ie vo'od, £lil,flOO, are, weui derstand, limply ■i.ffitieijt to coyer tb« cost for the entire dit-tance si yet uufiuinhed, between Kaipara and Pomu, and, artcmt euqiiiry made by one of our staff, when lately m Auckland, enables v*< to state that there la sufficient mtterial lyin^ idle in Aucklaud to furniuh tbe line right through.

PoLttBAKRB, Pull Dkvil.— The North Inland would meat public indebtedness by making the land fund Colonial revenue— the Middle Island bj imposing a lai d tax. Ont or other meant will hare soon to be retorted to. Tho " Lyttelton Timet," putting the question which shall it be, B»yt " Tho North contends for the former, we for the latter. To repudiate the Compact of 1856 on a mere technical ground, after the consideration-money for iti execution hn» been received and tpent by thoie now demanding it* violation, would be obriouslj to pave the way for the repudiation of any other liability of an; aeotion of the community, or of the State as a whole, which was a partj to tho agrecmont. But we fall back on the other alternative, and ask what there is of justice or expediency to prevent us from taxing oil the told lands of the colony in order to meet our liabilities ? The men who have most of all benefit ted by the expenditure on which we ure now called to pay interest bare been the landowners. The farmer, equatler, miner, merchant, artiz&n, and day laborer, have all worked for what they hare earned. At they hare been well paid for their work, let them t<ke their •hare if tho general taxation. But it it perfectly monstrous that mere gambling landowners, whose possession of land thov do not use, howerer sanctioned by any Parliament, it » robbery of the pbblic estate, should get off tcot free They ought to bo the very men to be first of all taxed, if only because they have received moat adrnntnge from the State, nnd contribute least in return. Sir Georgo Grey is eloquent on ' groat public wrongs.' If he hos a particle of patriotic sincerity, let him redress the ' great publio wrong ' of the tale to him of bit 10,000 acres of land, the wholo Island of Kuwait, for a mere fraotion of its value, by at lentt bringing forward a proposal for lifting off the titate burdens norn the shoulders of the working men,— wo use the word ' working men ' in itt widest sente, t!>o whole proletariat class,— and placing them wbsie they tbould be, on tho land gamblers of tho colony, who have managed to acquire that monstrous title, which ought never to have teen granted to any mortal man, an absolute freehold of land.

Tnen* 18 mint a blip txtixt the cur anothb lip, and solus our tmait riddle expounder, whoso f«at we recorded in our Utu« of the 26th ult found it, because he was not quite so smart at to use the wire instead ot the po«t. We jojfulty bluzoned bit supposed triumph over "Saturdaj Night," but hare now sorrowfully to tecord a miscarriage in the ve-y moment of Victory. No joy is unmixed ;no wino without fees ; no drunk without a head in the morning os big bi a "pizened" pup ;no gold without alloy. Perhaps it ain't healthy to ba too happy, nor wholesome to feel too gaod. The victory of our Pootballuts oyer the chivalry of the sunny South made vi as olieerful us Juno bugs and happy as the luscious ohm at nigh tide, and we fe'fc good, ah ! too good ; too elated t too proud and our fiery untamed steeds required a check.

In the hands of thb Philistines.— Mr Pyke, M.H.R.,;io the debate on tha Coroners Bill illustrated the abuse of the present system. He said " he knew a town in New Zealand where upon one occasion tha 'cue' was entirely to the haodi of a medical trinity Dr A was doctor at the hospital where the ' subject' died. Lt B was the Coroner, and Dr C w«s a profeisional friand. A killed the 1 subject,' B 'tat upon' him, and 0 con* I ducted the post mortem examiuotion." A Caoterburj journal, quoting ttieae rttnarka added :— " We o»n inform Mr Pyke that oatea of a similar nature often take place in Christcnurob, and that far greater illegal abominations are of not unfrequent ocourrauoe in this Province. I When the late Mr Graham died from tb* effects of » dose of chloroform, administered by two well known medical men, those two gentlemen were allowed by the Coroner to hold the post mortem examination, and the jury'u verdict was founded mainly on their evidence."

Auckland Aaßrcrji/nraix Snow. — It U gratifying to know that though the New Zealand Agrictltural Social y was unable to continue its operations successfully, a new Association lias taken its place.
