tion to support the Ministry, but within the last few days he had arrived at the conclusion that he could do so no longer. The Hon. Mr Bryce objected to any adjournment. He objected to constantly hearing of Mr Green’s conscience. It was trotted out on every occasion. The Bill involved the most important con stitutional question raised for years, and no other business should go on until it was settled. Mr Moss supported the adjournment. Colonel Trimble said the time had come for checking the Fabian policy of the Op position, and compelling them to take a decided stand on great measures. The leadership of the Opposition should be put up to tender. After a prolonged discussion the Bouse divided, with the following result:—Noes, 44; ayes, 40. Mr Montgomery expressed the opinion that the Legislative Council should be elected by the same constituents and on the same qualification as members of the Lower House, but elected for only five years. If there was then disagreement, he thought the two should meet, and if the two were then unable to agree, the Governor should bo enabled to dissolve both Chambers. After Sir Geo. Grey replied the House adjourned at 1.5.

New Shoeing Forge at Tinwald.— -It is notified elsewhere, that a new shoeing forge has been opened at Tinwald, oppo site Mr Jephson’s timber yards, where general blacksmith business will be car ried on in all its branches. Mr James Begg is the manager. The Ashbepton Magistracy. — The Timaru Herald of to-day says, in refer ence to the above :—We observe that there are great complaints at Ashburton about the scant attention given to the work of the Court there by the Resident Magis trate. It is urged, and not without rea son, that a flying visit once a week by the Resident Magistrate from Timaru, is not sufficient to keep pace with the amount of judicial business to be disposed of in a flourishing commercial town like Ashbur ton. Justices’ justice, it appears, is highly appreciated there, but the people feel they are getting rather too much of a good thing. The Justices, moreover, are unable to deal with much of the civil business, and thus the work accumulates, suitors and witnesses are put to great in convenience and loss, and, in many cases, serious injustice is the result. As far as wo can gather, no blame is attached to the Resident Magistrate; but it is held that he cannot do properly the work that has to be done, as long as he has to hold Courts in five different places, from twelve to eighty miles apart, and to spend < the greater part of his time in a railway carriage. The public of Ashburton have, , we think, a substantial grievance ; and the public of Timaru are by no means ] without an interest in it. The altogether unreasonadle demands that are made on the Resident Magistrate’s time and I energies by the existing arrangements, are telling heavily on the business of the Court here. We have far too much Justices’ justice, and yet the work re maining for the Resident Magistrate is not at all satisfactorily got through. It is a poor sort of economy to try to make one judicial officer do the work of two. Holloway’s Ointment and Pilis.—- Glad Tidings. Some constitutions have tendency to rheumatism, and are through the year home down by its protracted torture . Let such sufferers bathe the afflicted | parts with warm brine, and afterwards rub in this soothing Ointment. They will find it the best means of lessening their agony, and, - assisted by Holloway’s Pills, the surest way of ( overcoming their disease. More need not be * said than to request a few days’ trial of the safe and soothing treatment, by which the disease will ultimately be completely swept j away. Pains that would make a giant shudder ■ are assuaged without difficulty by Holloway’s easy and inexpensive remedies, which comfort by moderating the throbbing vessels and calm- ' ing the excited nerves.—Advt
