New Zealand's weather was mostly unsettled to-day, and u> not likely to take a definite turn for tho better during the next few nours. A southerly visitation — not a dreadful one — it expected to reach Wellington in the near future. There is an extraordinary feature about the tramway return* for last week-end. Saturday and Sunday's re--ceipts for 1910 were almost exactly equal to the receipt* for tho corresponding week-end of 1908. The actual figure* are :— Saturday, 2nd April, 1910, £494 5s 8d ; corresponding day, 1909, £491 8a 10id; difference, £2 16* 9Jd. Sunday, 3rd April, 1910, £224 6a lOd ; corretpondiuK day, 1909, £223 Os Old ; difference, £1 6» 9£d. On Sunday morning cars 441 adults were carried yesterday, while the late Sunday "specials," 9.60 ?.m. from Constable-street and 10 p.m. Rom Newtowii, carried 69 nnd 85 passengers respectively.
