EXTRACTS FROM THE HERALD. The following are extracts from thi New Zealand Herald of November 16, 1380: Yesterday Mr. James McCosh Clark was nominated as a candidate for th« Mayoralty of Auckland by Messrs. W* Crowther and I). Goldie, and Mr. Clark, by address, has accepted the There is no probability of any opposition, and therefore when returned on Tuesday next Mr. Clark will be in a position, as Mayor of Auckland, to receive our new Governor and to do the honours on behalf of the citizens.
Messrs. Welles, Raynes, P. Campbell and other gentlemen, returned this morning from Te Aroha. They report that the find of gold in the prospectors' claim exceeds the published report in tlia Herald of Saturday, it being a perfect jeweller's shop. Five stores are going up, another butcher's shop, and other business places. It is said £SOO was offered for one prospector's interest and refused. The Parihaka survey will be completed before any definite steps are taken under the new commission. Yesterday telegrams from the Armed Constabulary camp reported that there had been no reappearance of the native fences since the completion of the Parihaka fence, which we mentioned a few days ago. No tela* grams have been received to-day.
