WEDNESDAY, 27th SEPTEMBER, At 12 o'clock. NATIONAL MORTGAGE CO. have received instructions from Messrs Andrew Salton and James Matheson to sell as above their first class dairy herds, comprising : 35 Choice Cows, due to calve 1 September and October. The Auctioneers have every confidence m recommending the above to the attention of dairymen and others. The only reason for the sale is that their owners are giving up dairying. A deliberate attempt to wreck the second express train from Dunedin to Cbristohurch was made on Friday. Four sleepers were paced on the line, but fortunately the cowcatcher of the engine threw^ them clear. In connection wi h the Wallace County election, Mr F. J. iJyir announces m this issue that he will address the ratepayers of the Mararoa Riding m the Mossburn schoolhouse on Saturday, the 23rd inst., at 7.30 p.m. Mr J.C.Thomson, member for Wallace, informed an Orepuki deputation last week that, when he returned to Wellington, he would make representations to the Postmaster — General regarding the necessity for increased accommodation at the Orepuki Post Oftioe. The Wanpanui Herald, after going exhaustively into facts and figures, and digging up past history, has come to the conclusion that the local body has expended, on professional advice, a sum of over £100,000 on harbour improvements, and the port to-day is m a worse condition than it was before the works were carried out. At the quarterly meeting of the Invercargill Licensing Committee, held last Friday, Mr S. E. McCarthy, S.M., presiding, transI fers were granted of Descbler's Hotel from Horace Bastings to James Brokensha, and of the Railway Hotel from Arthur E. Otway to Florence M. Gibbs. ! The Bluff Harbour Board's new dredge, 11 Murihibu," is regularly working away deepening and extending the berthage accommodation at the wharf, and is doing excellent work. By an ingenious attachment to the gear, the depth to whion the excavator is working ia recorded on deck, and any inequalities are at once shown. Another estate has been purchased by the Government, viz., Mr H. White's property known as " Criskan," at Little River, Banks Peninsula. It comprises 2200 acres, and is eminently suitable for cutting up into small dairy fitrms, being capable of supporting a large number of families who cannot fail to do well if thoy are tolerably industrious.
