OPUNAKE.

JTROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.] December 8. — The arrival of the Murray on Sunday has sorted up several short lines. There was some littla delay in lightering owing to misunderstanding of arrangement, and the captnin received praise for the way he met the wishes of thoso on shore, when perhaps others in his place would have steauced away. A little cone and go of this kind would enable trade here to be put on a better footing, and it is to be hoped that those vessels which consider the interests of the port will receive the greatest encouragement. The dr3' weather seems to have set in properly now. The rivers and streams oti the coast are much drier this year than last at tbis time, but the feed is rejoicing in the suu which has been so long expected, and is therefore very abundant. The fern, however, B^erus to be making great growtli again, the stock having so much graes as not to care to tackle this stronger food. The success of the Opnuake Factory is stirring up the Cape settlers to renewed action in the matter of starting one at Pungarebu. A meeting will be held on Saturday week at Mcßoynolds' store, and it is to be hoped that there tha settlors will be able to agree to allow the factory to be placed in such a position as will £,ive the greatest benefit to the greatest number. There are now quite sufficient cows being milked to warrant a start in the district. The Oreti came in at 4 p.m. yesterday, and called for MrslD.O'Deaand family, and left at once. She caused some excitement, j as it was expected she was the Stella calling for the twenty A.C.'s who are told off for removal. An i.ecident occurred on the Waianaii bridge yesterda) r , by which a youth employed by Mr. Willan came to grief. It seems he was driving a load down thu approach to the bridge, when the horso Bwerved, and throw the boy out. His ankle was dislocated, and he was severely shaken, but "'Dr. Tucker" was able to do all necessary, and the boy went home this morning. Mr. Benson, of Wairarapa, is up here, doing all he can to get a drove of horses to take south. He starts to-day. So far he has accumulated a large number of horses, which will be a desirable addition to the animals elsewhere, while north of Opunake ihey can only be considered a nuisance. It can only be hoped he will realise as well from the trip as the settlers will from the absence of the wild stock ha removes.

Holloway's Pills and Ointment are ! remedies which should invariably be taken by travellers in search of health, pleasure or business. Many deleterious influences are constantly at work in foreign climep, tending to deteriorate the health ; these and the altered conditions of life will entail on those who travel the necessity of carefully attending to early symptoms of disease, and they will find the use of these remedies to be highly necessary, the action of the Pills being purifying and strengthening and of great service in cases of fever, ague, and all inflammatory diseases, whilst the Ointment is a sovereign cure in ccses otpiiee, bad legs, bad breasts, wounds and ulcers. Holloway's remedied do not deteriorate by change of climate. WISE Iolly.— "For ten >ears my wife was confined to her bed with such a complication of ailments that no doctor could tell what was the matter or cure her, and I used up a small fortune in humbug Btuff. Six months ago I saw an American flag with American Co's Hop Bitters en it, and I thought 1 would be a fool once more. I tried it, but my folly proved to be wisdom. Two bottles cured her, she is now &» well and strong as any man's wife, and it cost me only two dollars." — H. W. Detroit, Mich. Read Can't Pkeach Good.— No man can do a good job of work, preach a good sermon try a luwsuit welJ, ,doctor a patient, or write a good article when he feels miserable and dull, with sluggish brain and unstrung nervee, and none should mako the attempt in such a condition when it can be so easily and cheaply removed by a little American Co's Hop Bitters. Look for d 13 The worst forma of Fever, Prickly Heal, Smallpox, and Measleß rapidly cured by Lamplough's Pyretic Saline. "It saved my life, for the fever had obtained a strong bold on me."— C. Fitzgekald, porrespondent of Manchester Guardian, in Albania. Abundant medical testimony enclosed with each bottle. It is tho cure for Cholera and preventive of most diseases incident to Tropical and Colonial life. It allays thirst in a remarkable manner and cools and vitalises the blood. J. S.
