THE IVLDKI]SAL ViRIUES or the WAIWERA am) EOTOKU A WATERS By DR. ECCLES. Lake House, Rotorua, ember 12,1880. I HAVE visited Wciwera (Hot Springs) also Lake Jiousf, Ohinemutu,and the Terrace Hotel, Tar-Rwcra, on a tour for the purpose of inveatigaiing the properties of tbe various Hot {springs. I bave in each case stayed at the Ho els owned by Mr R. Graham, and bave to thank him and his manaser for the great courtesy extended towards me. The Springs at the first two mentioned places, 1 feel confident, possess the Most Valuable Medicinal Qualities, while the Terraces (easily accessible from the last*mentioned place) are such that every person possessing the means ought to vis-it. The internal arrangements of the various Hotels have been made to meet the requirements of Invalids and Tourists, and this object has been fully fulfilled, A. LESLIE A.
