From Dunedin we hear that quite a number of people are leaving for Home. Mr and Mrs Michie and family depart for England by the P. and O. steamer about the middle of April, and a party of friends leave by the Morayshire, including Miss Walker, who has been on a visit to her nephew, Mr G. Denniston. Miss Butterworth is also going. News has come that Dr. and Mrs Maunsell. who went Home a long time ago. intend staying there indefinitely. Miss Neill has gone to Melbourne, and Miss K. Stephenson to Sydney for a stay of some weeks, and Mr and Mrs James Mills have also gone to Sydney. Mrs Robert Neill gave an afternoon as a farewell to her friends prior to leaving for Melbourne, so that, in addition to those who have already gone aw*ay there will be quite a loss in social circles.
