AN INSTRUCTIVE SPEECH.

In reply to the toast of his health at a banquet given to him m London on April 23rd, Sir John Pender, chairman of the Eastern Extension Telegrapk Company, made a very instructive speech, Hq said that it was little more than 21 years since scientific mea had declared submarine telegrapy to be practicable, and now some thing like 4C.mi'!ions sterling was invested m Bubmarine telegraph'c undertakings, while the vast commerce of the Brap're, involving no lees a sum than a thousand millions Burling per annum, was daily influenced and controlled by cable com munication. They had not yet girdled the world to tha letter because It would not pay, but if necessary they wore pre pared to do so tomorrow. Speaking of ♦he oolories, ha said telegraphy wns play ing an important part m their develop ment by quickening emigration. Prob.ibly nothing retarded emigration more than the feeling of regret at leaving the old home and the old country. But when Bmigrants know that, through the Preae, they would be able to ascertain what was going on at home, aud all about the o'd aur roundiDgs, while those left behind would know that they would be made acquainted, almost from day to day, if uot froji hour to hour, wiih what was taking place at tbe new homes of the emigrants, the surplus population of this country would brace themselves up to leave the Mother Country, and go to lands where they would have elbow room and a chance m life. That consideration waa of great importance to England at the present time, and of enor mous importance m the future, beniu?e such emigration would create an England abroad -a people that would always be loyal to the Old Country.

THE VACANT JUDGESHIP.

We do not at all like the appearance of matters m connection with the vacant Indgeship. What is the meaning of all "this delay on the part of the Govern ment? is the question m everybody's month, and so far as we can gather the answer is eminently unsatisfactory, being neither more nor less than that Minis ters are casting about for an excuse for overlooking the undoubted claims of Judge Ward, and setting him aside m favor of somebody else. From one end of the colony to the other the public and the press are unanimous m declaring that Judge Ward and no other Bhould be appointed, and it is perfectly astonishing t'jat Ministers should hesitate for a moment. But they are hesitating, and not only that, for if we are to believe what we read m the telegraphic news, there is a scheme afoot for conferring the Judgeship upon Mr Haggitt, whose only claim, if it be a claim, lies m the fact that he has been for Borne years Crown Prosecutor at Dunedin. But it is suggested that if Mr Haggitt be elevated to the Bench, the Government nrght offer the Crown Prosecutorship which is said to be worth £1600 a year, to another leading Dunedin solicitor m the hope that this would clear the field of a possible political rival. Sir .Robert Stout may know nothing at all about this neat little scheme. We sincerely hope he does not, but even though he be m entire ignorance of it, still it is quite possible that Ministers may have some such purpose m view. If they have proposed to themselves any such line of strategy as this, we earnestly trust that such an intention will be at once abandoned, and that the vacancy on the Bench will be filled up vithout any regard to possible political contingencies. -Ab to the fitness of Judge Ward to the office there can be no two opinions. He is courteous, thoroughly impartial both to counsel and clients, clear-headed, punctual m and attentive to his work, and, above all, patient to hear, prompt to decide, and firm m his opinions and decisions when given. He has acted as a Supreme Court Judge for nearly two years, and has given m that capacity the fullest eatisfaction, and we are of opinion that his permanent appointment would meet with the almost unanimous approval of the Bar and of the public. When it is added, to appointjMrHaggitt, or anyone else, must necessarily be to re-appoint Mr Ward as a District Judge at his former salary of £900 a year, which thus would involve so much additional cost to the colony, the attitude of the Government is simply inexplicable. The question of the appointment has, how ever, been raised m the House, and the Government have explained that they are waiting for the intelligence of the death of Mr Justice Johnston to be confirmed, and that the appointment of his successor will not be made till after the close of the session. Such delay is, we think, highly prejudicial to the high toned independence which belongs to position of a Judge on the bupreme Court Bench.

The " European Mail " of May 11 oontains the following :— " A report has been circulated that while a gang of men were engaged on May 5 m dismantling some premises m New Bond-street, a roll ot canvas was discovered •m the corner of a disused cellar, and this, npon examination, turned out to be the portrait of the Duchess of Devonshire, which which was cut out of its frame m May, 1876, and disappeared under mysterious circum- Btances. It will be remembered that Messrs Agnew purchased the picture at the Wynn- lilllia sale for £10,000, some three weeks before it was stolen. In reply to inquiries at Messrs Agaew's, at Scotland Yard, and else- where, no confirmation has been obtained of the 6tory of the recovery of the picture. Messrs Agnew state that the last they heard of the matter was about three or four years ago, when they received from America a oom- munication enclosing, m proof of the power of the writer to restore the missing painting, a pieoe of oanvas whioh purported to be a part of it. A book on South Africa, recently published, states that Kaffirs frequently bear very ourious names, such as " Sixpence," " Cape Smoke" (i.e., colonial brandy), and otherß which hardly bear repetition. Perhaps one of the most singular illustrations was given m the High Court some two or three years The write t says :— " A native named 'Brandy and Soda ' had been tried for murder and found guilty, if I recollect rightly, before Mr Justice Buchanan, the Judge President. Awful as is the sentence, and heartless as the man must be who can hear it pronounced unmoved, yet many, by no means devoid of humanity, for a moment Bmiled as the Judge, having assumed the black cap, thns addressed the prisoner :— Brandy and Soda, you have been found guilty by an impartial jury of tbe awful crime of wilful murder, upon the enormity of which it is unnecessary for me to dilate. • A life for a life *is the law for both the black man and the white, and there is no alternative left mo but to pronounce on you the sentence of death. The judgment of this Court is that you, Brandy and Soda, be hanged by the neck till you are dead, and may," eto. Keatikg's Cough Lozenges cures Cougha, Asthma, and Bronohitis.
