The Ashburton Guardian. Magna est Veritas et Prævalebit. MONDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1890. IMPERIAL PENNY POST.

In a recent article we noticed hope_ fully the endeavour of Mr Henniker Heaton, M.P., to move the Imperial Government in tbe direction of eetab-; lishing an Imperial penny post. It is satisfactory now to note that the matter has been taken up strenuously by the British press, and the ablest advocacy that the most brilliant pens of the day can give is being devoted to the cause. Ministers do not eeem to favour the movement, and are acting over again Its oldk attle which Rowland Hill had to fight when he first proposed the island penny post. Ministers harp on the prophecy of certain loss as the conse quence of the initiation of the scheme, and try to point out that tbe in crease of business will not by any means recoup what will be lost by the change, Oolonißts, however, know perfectly well | that if a penny would cover a letter Home, the increase in correspondence could scarcely be calculated, Out here, with the knowledge we possess of how much the Home correspondence would increase were the postage Home reduced to a. penny, ire have no patience with the opposition offered to the scheme. But we feel perfectly certain that it only wants a trial, not only to show the success of it, but to astonish the autho rities with the immensity of the* success, and as we said in our former article the astonishment will be in the fact that the scheme wtftaot tried along ago.

LOCAL AND GENERAL.

Sir Charles J. Napier said : " I once asked a dirty fellow, blaok as a chimney sweep, if a coal pit could be desoended without spoiling my clothes." "Lord bless you, I goes down ten times a day, and never minds my clothes," was the answer.

The " Napier Daily Telegraph " hints that Mr Ormond is played oat as a politician, and the time, has no* arrived for a change in the representation of Hawkes Bay. Mr Swan, the popular Mayor of Napier, is mentioned as the ooming man. "Wellington deteotives assert that the town is overrun with light-fingered genty, who avail themselves of the cheap fares to travel up and down the coast. Beoently a tourist waß eaßed of £25 by a oouple of spielers whose aquaintanoe he made on boird ship. Says the "Manawatu Times":—lt is remoured that Messrs Nelson Bros, have made overtures to the Longbourne Company to take over all the unallotted shares, on the under* standing that the management is entrusted to them. We give the rumonr for what it is worth, and will merely remark that in the event of suoh a proposal being acoeded to, the suooeGs of the affair as a company would ke assured*

Chinese labor in making itself felt even in Europe. Swedish watchmakers have until reoently controlled the principal markets of the world, but the Chinese have now gene into the business, and have oom-Dbnced by cutting down prices to a limit which cannot be reaohed even by the oheapest of European cheap labor. Chinese made matches are now being sold in Hamburg and other European ports at 27s 6d a oase less than the Swedish article.

A man named Pentz, lately postmaster at Heidelburg, South Africa, has lodged with tbe police at Barkley, an 80-oarat diamond of the finest quality, worth £2000. He said it was given to him fourteen years ago by a young lady to whom he was then engaged, and not knowing its value he kept it, It was only the other day that he discovered its worth, and in view of the stringency of the law on the possession of diamonds in South Africa he thought it prudent to lodge it with the polioe pending inquiries.

The pastnr* in Oamaru district is suffering severely for want of rain. A gentleman who has recently returned from a tour into the interior says that the oreeks on the Elephant Hill Station, whioh had never before, in the memory of the whites gone dry, are without a drop of water in them. Tbe grass is as tinder in many places, and the careless use of fire would be sufficient to set the whole country side in a blaze. The grain orops on the Tables are, however, looking splendid, and give promise of very large yields,

When tho Oathedal bell at Brsganza, the ancient residence of the Portuguese Royal family, waa tolling for the death of Queen Maria 11., mother of the late King Luiz 1., in 1853, it craoked. In 1861, when the Castle ensign was hoisted half -mast high at Braganza on the ocoasion of the death of King Pedro V, brother of the late King, it was torn to pieoes immediately by the storm. At the death of Eing Luiz I, last month the Oathedial bell again cracked, and the Castle ensign was again torn to shreds by tbe wind.

A letter, the envelope of which has been shown to the " Feilding Star," and whioh is addressed bb plainly as possible to " Birming ham, near Feilding," was posted at Maaterton on July 12th, 1889. Notwithstanding that'it only bore a twopenny stamp it arrived at Birmingham, England, on August 20th, and no doe IP charged for defioient postage. There it was opened, a,nd repoßted from Birminham to London on August 28th, In London it was stamped at tbe dead letter offioe on August 30th, and sont on to Wellington, again forwarded to Masterton, and reached the address at "Birmingham, near Feilding," recently. MrEnys, Castle Hill, having decided to Bend his wool by road, hired a traction engine and waggons at Christchuroh for the purpose. The engine made a most successful trip, although Porters Pass had to be negotitated. Anyone who has travelled the West Coast road knows what that means along suoh a narrow Bide outtiDg. The men in charge left Ghristohuroh on Monday, reaohed Mr Enjß* station early on Tuesday, and returned to town on Wednesday night with a load of nearly 100 bales of wool. Doubtless this mode of carriage will oome into more general use for the back stations, now that proof is given that the oost is about 33 per cent, less than by horse and rail.

The officiating ministers in New Zealand registered under The Marriage Aot, 1880, number 736. They are classified in the ■' Gazette " as follows :—Church of the Pro vinoe of New Zealand (commonly called the Church of England), 257; Presbyterian Church of New Zealand, 102; Boman Catholio Church, 119; Presbyterian Church of Otago and Southland, 76; Wesleyan Methodist Church, 89 ; Congregational Indapendentp, 16; Baptists, 16 ; Primitive Methodist Con nexion, 20 ; United Methodist Free Church.a, 12 ; Lutheran Ohuroh, 10; Hebrew Oongi-e- Rations, 6 ; Church of Christ, 5 ; Independent Wesleyan, 1; Brethern usually denominated Plymouth Brethern, 1: Bible Christians, 3; Salvation Army, 3. A striking revelation of the growing senti ment among American manufacturers in favor of free raw materials is stated by the New York oorreapondept of the " Daily News'' to have been made by the " Amerioam Wool Reporter," a weekly newspaper published in Boston. It sent to all the wool manufacturers in the oountry two petitions to Congress, one demanding free wool, the other ad valorem duties, requesting them to sign and return the petitions with an expression of their views. The result was that 521 merchants signed the free wool petition, and 196 the ad valorem duty. Commenting upon the result the "Wool Rsporter'? says:—"The astonishing features of this great list of names in favor of reduced duties on wool lie not only in the number, but the character of the signers. It has been many times asserted that the only manufacturers in favor of free wool were a few officers of large cor porations, the number of whom did not exceed ten. Oui list of signatures shows that the rank and file C l the Bmaller wanufac turefs are M willing to expt^ thm ?* I™™1 ™™ in regard to the wool duties as are too 6 .. leaders of trade." The real significance of 1 this revelation (remark-! the correspondent) lies in the fact that both Protection and Free trade advocates regard the duty on wool as the keystone of the Proteotion arob, saying openly that froe wool means the beginning of be end of the Protection ejstenk j , .

Mr A. Golledge, & phrenologist of repute from England, and a member of tha British Phrenological Association, who has reoently had an extensive practice) in Timaru, and brings with him tesiimonials from some of the leading men there, is announced to deliver a course of three leotures on the " Soience of Phrenology " in the Orange Hall, on Tuesday Thursday and Friday evenings'.

We learn from a thoroughly reliable source that Sir Harry Atkinson is not suffering from any organic disease, but from acute dyspepsia and severe nervous prostration, brought on by overwork and ceaseless worry. He needs long rest, and oannot be {himself again until he takes it. There has been a rumor generally current that be had cancer in the stomaoh. We are glad to be able to state, on what we regard as thoroughly reliable authority, that this rumour is wholly untrue. He is simply another victim, like his friend and predecessor in office, Sir John Hall, to too muoh work, and too muoh worry.

A rather disastrous fire ooourred at Ohertsey on Sunday morning. A four-roomed oottage belonging to Mr James Stringfellow, and at present tenanted by Mr John Straohan and family, took fire about eleven o'clock in the forenoon, and in the course of an hour was entirely consumed. With great difficulty and only by the strenuous exertions] of several willing neighbour the adjoining oottage, ocoupied by Mr John Ohilds, blaoksmith, was saved. Great sympathy is felt for Mr Straohan, who has lost a considerable portion of his household plenishings. The oottage itself was fully covered by insurance.

Mr Browning used, says the " World,' oooasionally to refer to the only oooasion on which he ever spoke to the Queen. Some years ago the late Dean of Westminster and Lady Augusta Stanley invited him, among others, to tea at the Deanery to meet the Queen, and a small and select party were present, Mr Garlyle being one. The company, as was befitting in the presence of their sovereign, were respectfully silent^ only join ing in the conversation- when adddreased. The Queen began to talk to Mr Oarlyle, and expressed her opinion on some matter from which he differed, and he, as usual, contra dicted her and silenced her, retaining hold of the conversation till the Queen rose to go. As the Queen left the room she stopped at the I door to apeak to Mr Browning and say good-bye remarking " What a very extraordinary man Mr Oarlyle is! Dobb he always talk like that? 1 never met him before." And Mr Browning was only able to assure her that it was his invariable custom

The quarterly meeting of the Dawn of Peace Lodge, 1.0. G.T., was held ia the Templar Hall on Thursday evening, the Lodge was opened in the usual form by P.O.T, Bro G. W. Andrews. Several candidates were pro posed for membership, and the general Lodge business having been disposed pf, the follow ing officers were initiated for the ensuing quarter by Bro J. W. Hardley, L.D. :—Bro G. W. Andrews, P.O.T. ; Bro W. Pearson, C.T.; Sister Leitob, V.T.; Sister 0. R. Andrews, Sec; Bro Booke, F.S.; Bro Andrews, T.; Sister Hoult, 0. ; Bro G. Soott, M.; Bw Hawkin?,! .G.; Bro T. Pauling, Sentinel, After the officers had been installed in their respective positions a hearty vote of thanks was aooorded to L.D. Bro Hardley for the able and efficient manner ia %7hioh he had installed the officers of the Lodge. Bro Hardley suitably responded. The O.T, elect thanked the Lodge for the honor they had oonferred npoD him by electing him on* opposed to the offioe of O.T*. He hoped that during his term of office the Lodge would continue to grow and prosper, and that the officers an I members alike would rally round and support him in his responsible position. The Lodge then went into harmony;

SANDER and SONS' EUCALYPTI EX TRACT.—In protection of the worldwide fame our manufacture has acquired all over the globe, we publish the following:—Hazard, M.D., Professor of General Pathology and Diseases of the Mind and Nervous System; says in an editorial published in the " Clinical Reoord:"—" We have examined half-a-dozen specimens of different manufactures; the preparation of Sander and Sons was the only one that proved to be reliable and correspond ing to scientific tests." Another conoootion called " Refined Extract of Eucalyptus " has made its appearance since. This product, stands, aooording to Dr Owen, foremost in causing injurious effects That gentleman sommunicates, at a meeting of the Medical Society of Victoria, that a child living at Fitzroy became most seriously indisposed through its use. In another oase a lady ttates on the strength of statutory declaration that she suffered cruelly from the effects of the same ooncootion. To guard the high reputation of our manufacture we feel warranted in exposing the above facts, and desire the publio to exeroise care and precau. tion when buying. SANDER and SONS — Advt. 7

The man in question, William Henry Parker^ arilvod In Bng bad two or three weeks previously, and had since baas busily engaged searching foehfawifo.

THE LABOR TROUBLES

(Per Prkss Association, ) London, Febraaip 7« Many additional docks and wharves are joining the Employers' Union. In view of the apprehensions of another strike, pressure is being applied to obtain the delivery of Australian wools sold at current auctions. The coalowners of the United King dom propose to federate and to limit labor to eight hours per day, To counterbalance the restriction of hours, the output will be decreased by thirty million tons per annum, and the price increased 5s per ton. The opinion in England is adverse to entertaining Emperor William's pro posed labor reforms. " . . t The dockers are negotiating to ascer tain whether the Unions will support a general strike. Dock owners are pre-; paring a scheme enabling them to con-' tribute to the sick and benefit fund of employees, London, February 8 , The stevedores and lightermen have refused help to the dockers, alleging that it is imprudent to coerce the employers when trade is slack, but they have agraed to co operate with them later on. The dockers are forbidding the loading of non-union carmen, and the blocking of Hay's goods except at Hay's wharf. It is rumored that the Conciliation Committee will mediate between Hay and the dockers to-day. Oliver's and the colonial wharves have locked out the laborers. ' The master lightermen have formed a. Union, and any member retaining a man refusing to navigate the barges will forfeit £200. All fear of a general strike is over. "The Times" asserts that the Emperor William of Germany and Prince Bismarck are in accord as to the proposed Conference on the labor question. The French Government enppcrt the Berne Convention. ' jßbklin, Febtu»ry 7^ The Emperor's. labor decree haa caused a prodigious sensation through* out Germany. The press: of all shades declare it will advance the well being of his subjects aud prove an additional safeguard to the throne. The decree was issued on the Emperor's own initiative.

Humours are about that- Bismarck was opposed to it, but the idea of any difference between the Kaiser and his Chancellor meets with; no credit. v ;

THE FEDERATION CONFERENCE.

PROSPECTS OF AN AGREEMENT

HEALTH OF SIR H. PARKES.

[PjBB PrESB ASSOOIATIOK.I

Melbottkse, F<?bra»ry 8.

The delegates to the Federation Conference were entertained by Lord Hopetoun at Government House last night. Milboubvx, February 9. Sir Henry Parkes' condition yester day was considered very serious, but the danger has now passed over.,, He is rapidly recovering, and hopes to be well enough to attend the Conference to-morrow. The prospect of thorough unanimity on federation are considered to be not quite so good as on Thursday. The stumbling block seems to be a desire of some, if not the majority, of the dele gates to establish a Customs Union with the least possible delay. Mr D. Gillies, Premier of Victoria, has not wavered in the slightest degree towards Sir H. Parkes' views, ar.l it is believed that the delegates iivm Souia Australia and Western Australia will not readily fall in with the views of either Mr Gillies or Sir H. Parkes. London, February 9 The Earl of Derby, writing to the newspapers, says that Australian Feder ation is eminently desirable, and the English people are unanimous; in the opinion that the colonies should be come members of a powerful and im portant State. Internal free trade is better than none whatever. The rela tions with the Colonial office will be easier when the majority decides. He instances Canada, where the obstacles were greater to contend against. The | success of Australian federation is as sured if local jealousies are overcome, ! which statesmen suppress and only ! politicans trade upon.

THE WEATHER.

The following ate tbd .ust-jorolgioal readings at Alford Station for the week ending February 9:h, 1890 :—

GREAT WRESTLING MATCH.

It It comforting to know that we still aave a British Champion of some kind luft to as. Recently, at the Royal Aqatrlum, Westminister, Tom CannoD, a native of Laooashice, qulokly showed hit superiority over hit Ftenoh rival, Eueeq' Biain, matched against him foe £200 h-bicU at the ••Sportsman" office. Only elijht minutes' wib spent over the enoouoter, at the end of which time Oanaon, who, however, had one narrow oacape, had planed down hit opponent. The style In whtoh the Englishman atid the^Ffenoh man wrestled la one to a very-large [extent nnfamtli* to athletes, la. this ooaatry, Here we have the Cumberland and Westmoreland, tho Devon and Corn wall, the Oitoh-as-Oatob Can, and the Lacoaahire, of which, perhaps,, the first and third modes are moat popular. It waa not until 1870 that the French, or, as it (s the fashion to oall It, the Grstob- Romansiyle, waa witnessed in England. Than Dnboli and Le Boeaf, two wrestlers from aorosa the water, threw down the challenge to the British- Champions, r .Wm. Jametou and Richard Wright;, The lattei weie beaten at the game which; • wai new to them, bat were easily vlatotioua in the Cumberland style. Aboat a fortnight ago M- Laoalssej brought with him to the Aquarium a troupe of wrestlers of; acknowledged ability, Including the renowned f Felix Bernard, who mat Tom Cannon In Paris. So confident waa M. Laoaiate at to the strength of hit combination that be forth with lodged a sum of £200 In the hands of the Editor of the " Sportamar," at the same time issuing a challenge to anyone In tho world. It; so happened that Tom Gannon, after w&nderfritgJor eight or nine years in foreign dimes, and returned home, and seeing the ohallenge peoaiply retponded, tie covered the £200 lyluß at the office, and attended in Fleet atreet of Friday for the purpose cf algtiag artioles. Everything waa at onoe amloably, settled;' the matoh bblng fixed at the Aquarium. Before " T)me " wasi.called TomOiqcop, who kppearnd wearing the' sosif representing the Championship of France and Amorloa, briefly addressed the andleooe, thanking them , for their kind recaption on hit return England, and offering to Wfentie aby mm brought for ward. Then the representative of the " Sportsrrian," who beld the watah, called " Tims," and the men faced eaoh other for ~ v ,. ••. .... , „

Cannon looked somewhat squatter than his opponent, and as usual fully half a mi.ute was upaht Jn skirmiahmg tonnd for an oponiag. The Englishman was tbe first to make a decisive mova, seizing his opponent by the back of the ueck, Bazio, however, quickly disentangled himself, and more tima was devoted to working for a? opening. Now the Frenchman goc behind Gannon and lifted him over, but the latter was very agi'e, and nerer looked in danger of boing floored- More skirmish mi; followed, but little time was wasted over this business, and act ling sarioasly down Basin got a good hold and pitched Oanoon orer, preasiug very hard on him to complete his defeat, Before both Gannon's shou'dnra touched he had again escaped, and some exciting ttruggling on the ground took place. First one and then the other in quick succession made a bridge to escape defeat, but at length Oannon secured Bazin in a grip-which would not be denied, and exerting his strength pinned trim down. After five seconds had elapsed the timekeeper indi oated tbe same to the referee, who declared Cannon the viotor. At the request of the Editor of tho Sportsman, Professor Atkio son, the' renowutd bono-eetter, president of the "Cumberland and Westmoreland Wrestling Society, acted as referee. Great cheering greeted Cannon's vlotory, the applause being renewed when Pro fessor Atkinson handed a cheque of £400 to Oannon.
