Unrelated news of the time......

TOWNSHIP OF GLENELG.—The plan of this valuable township has, we understand, been laid before the Governor and Resident Commissioner, and finally approved of by his Excellency. We shall publish in our next a copy of the plan. The Custom House is in the course of erection on the reserve made by the Governor for public buildings. A large square has been formed in the centre of the town, in which the proposed church is to be erected. Mrs. Gawler, at the request of the proprietary, has named the church St Peter's, and the square in which it is situated Torrens square. Messrs. Light, Finnis, and Co. deserve great credit for the very judicious manner in which they have laid out the town ; and if Colonel Light's plan for the erection of a jetty be carried through by the proprietors, as we have no doubt it will, Glenelg will certainly become, on its completion, the Port of Adelaide.—
