One vorv satisfactory feature in connection with the Welcome crushing is that the u;nUl on caj-.iy has been found to be worth L 3 78 Id per oz , the highest value as yet obtained from any portion of thib field. Mr J. C. Firth arrived nere from Matamata y- st^rday afternoon. lie insjucted the tiamwav and batteiy, leaving ajain tiy the launch Fairy to meet the Koutak.ui at Pa^roa, which proccedb to Auckland thia morning. AYe regret to say that - the very useful little rivei steamer, the s.s. Tui, the" property of E. F. Roche, Esq., was burnt to 'he water's edjj;e, and sunk on Thursday last at Ohineroa, In addition to this the punt to which she was moored was sot on fire, and also destroyed. The Tui left Te Aroha on Wednesday last with a general car^o for settlors, and inived at her destination safely. How the fire occurred we have no information, or was it known up to yesterday. Endeavours are beinir made to lift the boiler and machinery from the submersed hull, and theie is no doubt that this will be successfully a< eomplished. The destruction of the boat and punt will be a '.•rent inconvenience to settlers, but both A'ill no doubt be speedily replaced. Though the new Court House is neither a credit to its designer nor an ornament to to the township, it will Ue a prosit iinurovement on the present cmut acco'unidation, and the sooner it is ready the better. The Public lI aH it is true could 'm utilised in the mo-intitne. but it is miserably cold *md comfortle s and the wardens office is utterly unfitted in every icspcct for holdinu a court. On Tuc-di> the chimney smoked voilontly and in tider to avoid .suffocation tho backdoor •yah opened thereby, causing* a thorough drought ol" by no moans a dc-irablc kind Surely the Court lioiine .-should bo road) for next coiut.
