WAVERLEY.
* fFBOM OUB OWN CORRESPONDENT.) The farmers about here are considerably - disappointed at the result of tbis year's lambing. It is estimated tbat tbe yield is 20 per cent, less tban last season. If tbe present mortality among sheep continues muoh longer, many will feel' tempted to return To agricultural pursuits, which have been abandoned during the last few years. . Saturday's "zephyr," whioh was ao« ( companied by a heavy downpour, has greatly inoonvenienoed the bush settlers f by rendering the roads impassable. A I great deal of damage has been done to the , wire fences in the bush districts by land* | slips. L Mrs. Jacomb's dancing class, which has i been in existence for tbe last few months, j dosed for tbe season on Tuesday night. There were about 75 couples present, all | appearing to thoroughly enjoy themselves, jr All arrangements were entrusted to Master f Fabian* and satisfactorily oarried out, the same young gentleman occasionally pre* , siding at the m'ano.
