The Wainui water has reached town at last. It came through this morning without further casualty, but had not been turned on many hours before one of the old pipes in the Adelaide-road suddenly burst, but it is not of an important character. The water is very thick and muddy at present, but will have run itself clean in the course of a couple of days.
