FROM CORRESPONDENTS.
Tattbanga, Monday.
■ Important intelligence reached here yesterday re the/Cambridge and Taupo road. Captain Turner's party have been forbidden to proceed with the survey, and there is great excitement. Maori notices have been posted, commencing at Te Niho o te Kiore, on the bridge across the Waikato, and along the intended line, cautioning surveyors. A great meeting of the tribes interested is to be held to day, at the Hauhau settlement, Te Whetu. Mr. John C. Young has left Botorua to be present. Mr. Mackay is blamed for not obtaining the consent of the rightful owners before permitting the survey party to proceed. Goeomandel, This'day.
The Eoyal Oak will have 115 ounces retorted gold from 250 lbs. specimens and picked stone crushed. The Union Beach are getting more good specimens, and the crushing is shaping well. Some 'fat contracts are to be let in the Bismarck and Pride of Tokatea companies.
