The settlers in the Mount Vernon Estate, Ilawkes Bay, taken over a year or two ago by the State, have a grievance against their landlord. The Inspector has been round several times and served them with notices to clear Californian thistle, etc. They have worked hard to do so, yet on the Government sections lying along the river-bed Californian thistle, six or seven feet high, are flourishing, forming a thicket that no animal would venture to penetrate. Moreover the seed-heads being deat-ripe now, the prevailing high winds are scattering the seeds for miles around. Each time the river floods the seed is carried down, taking possession of some of the richest land on its thirty or forty miles course to the ocean. Subsidences of a serious character occurred recently at Backdykes, in the neighbourhood of Prestonpans, Haddingtonshire, and caused considerable alarm among the townspeople. One of the underground coal workings, with which the district abounds, subsided without any warning, and a number of houses were badly damaged, while a large wall collapsed. Rheumatic Sufferers.
