HAMILTON.
[From our own Correspondent.]
This day.
New Bridge. A rumour current, that the Engineer has recommended a site for the new bridge at The Narrows, a mile anl a-half from Hamilton, is causing some apprehension. The bridge there would, be useless, and out of the way of traffic, and a punt here would still be necessary. The natives of Kopua are selling considerable quantities of oats at 5s to 5s 6d. Ik An attempt to form a football club on the
basis of the Rugby Union is likely to sacceed.
The Revision Court sits at Ngaruawahia on thft 26th.
The Waikato S.N. Company is c eefcing a new goods-shed.
Eaiiway Complaints
There are great complaints of mis-manage-ment of the Mercer railway. Timber urgently needed here was pitched off a considerable distance from Mercer, and left rotting. The. passengers boast of being able to go through, either -way without paying. 'lhe guards are uncivil, and the whole railway officials, unequal to their sudden elevation, have lost their heads. A man at Te Rore purchased pigs for the Auckland market, but was disappointed by delay in transmission. The pigs are now dying.
