[*7 BOM OUR OWN C HtKbSPONDKNT.] L October 31. A not. er detachment of the 18:h Rova'. Ir.sb passed ■down tha road on Wednesday. Troops on the march nvariablv take the short road through Drnry now which is "a proof of Hie desirab'aty of us being opened np for genera traffic. . - . , , j The last bat-h of the 18th Royal Irish passed down on Saturday, th v certainly do 10.-k * rough and ready let of fellows. un"l I only wish they had a fair chance Of displaying their valour. .'.,,. J reuret to see so tad'J uscfu! bmldinpa empty here, when f know such places are so much wanted elsewhere. But surely if the buildings cannot g.> to the people, the people may go to the buildings, and with vt ry great advantage in the case of immigrants. The Papakura Association hold a mc ting on Wednesday next, on the .-übject of to outsettlers, and I trust such meeting* > ill be held in every district.
