ECHUCA AND MOAMA STOCK REPORT.
Riverine Herald. Office Tuesday Evening.
The following mobs of stock havo crossed since
our last issue Juno 30—2,000 fat sheop, Kuther
ford. July 1—2,500 fat sheep, Peter's, Lachlan.
2,000 fat sheep, Sutherland, Lachlan. The late rains
hare brought up a fine spring of grass in the neigh
boring districts, and the lambing is generally pro
grossing in a moat satisfactory manner. From all
quarters we continue to receive most favorable ac
counts of the improved atate of tho country and the
condition of stock. Tho movement in Echuca for
the erection of a boiling-down establishment, appears
to have excited a strong spirit of rivalry on the part
of the inhabitants of Hay. They contend that their
position is much better than that of Echuca for such
purposes. Of this, of course, the squatters are the
best judges, and tho favorite site will soon make it
aelf known when operations have been once com
menced.
