TWENTY THOUSAND POUNDS LYING ON THE SEA BEACH FOE MONTHS.
That most valuable substance, ambergis, which has recently "been found near Kaipara in such large quantities by a Native. who, on hearing that the others had already, if not previously, seen the mischief that might easily have occurred, or, on the other hand, might have been overlooked, declined to negotiate, and for manj r years lay desolate, until a settler, hearing that a prohibition order had been granted, divided the whole thing and got away with the proceeds. There is very little sense in the foregoing paragraph, and there is about the same amount in the brain-boxes ; of those who smoke inferior cigarettes when they canget Indian Chief for the same price.
