CARLYLE.
(from our own correspondent*)
Carlyle, Yesterday.
A continuous stream of cricketing nien has passed through here since Wednesday en route for Wanganui. Hawera will be numerously represented. Weather permitting the Australians should reach Wanganui from Nelson at 8 this morning, and the match will commence about 11. The fielding of the Twenty -two should be their best feature, and in batting they are moderately good, but in the bowling they will be weakest, Mr. F. Baily being • the only really dangerous man. The Rev. P. W. Fairclough, Wesleyan Minister, proceeds shortly to Invercargill to undertake the Wesleyan charge there. The erection of a new parsonage here was decided on some time ago, and at a meeting on Tuesday it was determined to proceed with the building at once. At the R. M. Court on Wednesday with closed doors, Louis, a German hawker of fruit &c. was charged before Captain Wray with committing rape on a child nine years of age. The Bench dismissed this charge, and a second, for indecent assault was gone into. The prisoner was committed to take his trial at the District Court, Patea, to be held in April.
