The French cruiser Protet will take her departure for Sydney at noon tomorrow. She Avill be docked for overhaul on arrival at Sydney. The following is Captain Edwin's Aveather forecast for 24 hours from 9 a.m. this day: "Heavy gale from between north and west and south-west, glass fall, tides good, sea heavy, expect rain." A carrier pigeon has been at the Koutu mill, Hokianga, for about a month, having a ring on each of its legs. One ring is marked with the initials P.C., and the figures 1902 over 298—3.
