The Napier Telegraph, of the 16th instant, says that Mr. IS. Collins, of Waipawa, hag succeeded in renting from the Maoris the Kopua clearing in the Seventy-Mile Bush. The block contains about 1000 acres, more than two-thirds of which are free from timber. As Kopua is likely to be the terminus of the Hawke’s Bay railway for a considerable period, and as Mr. Collins purposes to erect a hotel near the station, his venture will probably prove highly remunerative. The salmon ova imported by the last San Francisco mail are being hatched out very successfully at the ponds on Mr. J. N. Williams’ estate, near Hastings, Hawke’s Bay.
