The amount of customs revenue collected to-day T on goodß for consumption amounted to £20413 a Bd. The number of bags of grain and produoe reoßlved at the Dunedin Railway stations to-day was bb follows:— Oata. Wheas. Barley. Bran. Potatoes. Total. 3147 ZOO 173 269 463 4553 There ia ju»t now a very encouraging run ou this 1 teason'a wheat around the diatrlct (eayß the Tuapeka Times) by grain buyers. Within the laat few days 80-'.eof the Bettlers have refused as muoh as 4a 3d per bushel and bags 5d for good quality wheat. The opinion has got abroad among the settlers that pricea for wheat will bofnro very long be eaßlly ob- 1 talnable at 5a a bushel, and they have in coniequenoe deoided to hold on for that figure.
