IN MELBOURNE.
rhis hurrying on for ever to and fro Sas lulled at last; the fever of tho I day knd noises of the city pass away, i.nd all this vanity and idle show that glares upon us everywhere we go las ceased till morn ; towards the beach I stray, Chinking how happier far are those who stay Dut in the bush, or where eea-breezes blow. [ wander on and reach the calm seashore, rippling waters softly lap the sand, \nd musing, think how useless is this strife. 3ow like to night and day is death and life, For all things yield to stilly night's command, \.nd at the last must yield for evermore. -H. L. Thompson, from "In the Bush Shade."
The orchards and raspberry gardens in he Riwaka district are (the Nelson Cojnist reports) looking -well, and give iromise of a plentiful yield both' of irge and small fruit. Some growers are omplaining that the grub is seriously ttacking the raspberry canes. The Commissioner of Crown Lands at Auckland reports that some very fine laret has been produced in the young • r ineyards of Hokianga.
