DUNEDIN.
November 11
At the Harbor Board meeting yesterday a lengthy report was read from tbe engineer. One of its most important features is a strong recommendation that, while dredging on the bar should be gone on with, a training wall should be begun in order to obtain sufficient depth of water. The engineer believes that £30,000 spent on such a wall would soon give a minimum depth of twenty-three feet.
The Sorento steamer left Newcastle last Wednesday for Wellington, where, and also at Lyttelton, she will take in cargo. At Dunedin, besides general cargo, she will take in 250 tons of frozen meat, of which 6000 carcasses are now ready. It is expected she will sail for England about tbe 6th of December.
