The town also boasts of a steam and a wind flour-mill, a strong gaol, a bank, four chapels of various sizes; belonging to different sects of Dissenters. The church is situated at the north-western end of the town, and is much smaller than many of the chapels. Near it are many of the principal residences, amongst which the one belonging to the New Zealand Company's principal agent, standing in a nice green lawn, with a pretty garden at the back, reminds one of an English villa. The Lieut. -Gover...nor's house has also been bvalt here, as well as a new barrack. There are rather too many VALLEY OF THE HUTT. 173 public-houses for the size of the place, which were generally well filled, owing partly to the unfortunate disturbances hav- ing thrown so many people out of work, and driven in numbers of the out-settlers from their farms, for the protection the town afforded.
