OUTWARD SAN FRANCISCO MAIL.
WELLINGTON,
This day. Archdeacon Stock has returned from Melbourne specially to perfect the arrangements for the transit of Venus.
In consequence of the rapidly increasing trade upon the Foxton tramway, a deputation waited upon the Commissioner of Public Works, representing the necessity of converting the tramway into a lailvay as speedily as possible, and placing two or three locomotives on. It is understood that Mr Richardson has agreed to do so. The Ladybird sails early this afternoon for the North via Picton and Nelson, with the San Francisco mail. It is expected to reach, the Manukati in time to tranship to the Mikado at Auckland. A Gazette, notice intimates that the Hon. Mr Reynolds has charge of the administration of the Naval Training Schools Act.
