Received during the last w.eok, 15; discharged, 14; total number of prisoners in the gaol on Saturday night, 8*- . ' From our correspondent at Waipon. we learn' that there is a report of a rush to the Manuherikia, about sixty miles to the northward, and that several miners have alreadv started from Waipori in that direction. . . . It will be remembered that there was a report of the discovery of gold at Black’s station, Manuherikia. some time ago, but that it was found that nothing payable had been struck and that the miners had knocked off and left the spot. It was in. the same neighbourhood, also, that Mr Reyman was! prospecting: the person who, it will he remembered, put forth a claim to have'discovered a new gold field some months ago. ... About 300: feet of the new ietty is completed and readv for use. The , work appears'to be of the most substantial character, and carefully constructed, and reflects great credit' upon the contractor*. "We are informed that in spite of/the inconvenience ©xnerienced on the old jetty, in respect to the employment of trucks on a tiemway, it is contemplated to adopt the same plan in ;the case of the. new wharf, although the ietty is amnlv wide enough to allow the dravs to load’at once at the vest’s side, with sufficient room for any traffic that may lie’expected to occur:" . .
