THE MARKETS

(per pbess association.) Loitdon, Mcircb J3 The Bank rate of discount is four per cent. The South African Gold Trust has declared a dividend of ioo (?) per cent. Victoria is unwilling to raise two loans this year in the manner proposed when the announcement was first made, and will try to obtain the full amount in April, when money is expected to be cheaper. Frozen mutton and beef are un changed, but lamb has improved a farthing per lb. A syndicate provides the capital for extending the Australian wine impor ters' business. It is probable that freights by sailing vessels will be reduced by half-a-crown in a fortnight. (Received March 15, 0.5 p.tu.)

THE BIGGEST HOUSE IN THE WORLD.

The " Freibaus," situated in Wieden, a suburb of Vienna, is said to be the most spacious building on the globe. Withing its walls a whole city of human beings live and work, sleep and eat. It contains, in all, between 1200 and 1500 rooms, divided into upwards of 400 dwelling apartments of from four to six rooms each. This immense house has thirteen courtyards—five open and eight covered—»nd a large garden within its trails. A visitor to the building relates -thilt he once spent two hours in looking j for a man known to reside in the

house. Scarcely a trade, handiwork or v profession can be named which is not represented in the enormous house. Gold and silver workers, makers of fancy •rticles, lodging-house keepers, book binders, agents, tuners, hatters, officers, blacksmiths, joiners, tutors, scientific men, Government clerks, three bakers, eighteen tailors, twenty-nine shoemakers, and many other tradesmen live in it. The house has thirty-one staircases, and fronts on three streets and one square. In one day the postman's delivery has amounted to as many as 1000 pieces in this single but Titanic house. To address a letter to the house and to the person it is ■ intended for does not assure the sender that the person to whom it is addressed will ever receive it. In order to "make assurance doubly sure," all letters ad dressed to the "Freihaus" must be pro tided with both the Christian and sur name of the person for whom intended, the staircase, and number of the apart ment, otherwise it is apt to go astray as though addressed to a city unprovided frith directions »s to street or number. At the present time 2112 persons live in this immense building and pay an annual rental of over 100,000 florins.

DEBTOR VERSUS CREDITOR

(P3IB PRES3 ASSOCIATION.}

TiaURTX. Marcb 15 A curious case was submitted to a District Coort jury of four to-day- In August last W. | Ackroyd, a creditor of one 0. Bishop, in con cert with other creditors, set the machinery of : the Magistrate's Court at Temuka in motion, ''arid obtained successively, and within three houis, summonses immediately returnable at a special Court. At a prompt hearing, judg ment went for plaintiff by default. Judgment summons was immediately issued and heard,, and an ,order of commitment for six weeks made in defanlt of payment. The debtor re fujtdtopay and served the term, He now

claimed that the proceedings were wholly "legal, and the debtor though leaving the dis met was only going to Dunedin, and an action for false imprisonment was brought. A feature of the case was that before the judg ment summons was heard Bishop paid ;£6 to Ackroyd, but the latter said nothing of the payment in Court, and the term of commit ment was evidently measured by the amount of the claim. The jury assessed the damages at but the legality of the processes is yet to be argued. The celerity of the magisterial proceedings probably breaks the record in that line, the whole proceedings from the issue of the first summons to the commitment occupy ing only about three hours.

QORRUGATED TRON TOOOFING NEW AND IMPORTANT DISCOVERY. THE ACME CORRTGATED BATTEN. By using this newly-patented invention a perfect roof is secured. No leakage from nail holes; perfect stiff ness, unaffected by heaviest gales. Plumber hitherto looked upon as a curse, arwelcomed* as a blessing they may tramp about the rob ad libitum without doing the slightest injury- Special provision for carrying oS " sweat" or moisture, and also for ventilation. N© BUILDING HAVING IRON ROOFING SHOULD NOW BE ERECTED WITHOUT USING THE PATENT ACME BATTEN. As there is considerable saving by using less expensive nails in fixing than those required by the oJd method, the cost of using the Batten does not exceed 2s or 3s per square o roofing, or on a moderate-sized building £3, °s to £3 ios.
