J. ■ j, Brown, manager ofj tho Nireahu Dairy, ! Company, from the position of lute held ; by him has, says a correspondent, been i received with genuine regret throughout '■ the district.

Mr. Brown ! leaves the district with the suppliers' : good wishes for ever* success in his i iuture undertakings.
