that he was making the voyage to see i sea sickness miaht afford relief from tht *• internal complaint which had baffled th. Queensland doctors' Two days before the ship arrived at Auckland he saw McLauchlin, who complained that he obtained no relief, and feared he would not see Auckland. Next morning he saw McLauchKn, but missing him later, made enquiries, and was told he was all right and bei-ig attended to, but. the officials who made this statement were apparently referring to ano'her passenger, who was in the hospital. McLauchlin showed no signs of wandering in his mind. The Order-in-Council, authorising the acquisition of the Cheviot Hills estate for £260,220, is gazetted. The Railway Commissioners believe the estimate of the gross revenue for the year—viz., £1,140,000— will be exceeded. Three of the crew of H.M.S. Katoomba were admitted to hospital to-day, suffer ing from typhoid fever. Seaman John-, ston, belonging to the same vessel, who has been ailing some time, died to-day. He will be accorded a military funeral. Dr Haoon informs the " Post" that he has sent a letter to the Secretary of State for the colonies in reference to the Ah Ching case, asking for the appoint ment of an English Commission to enquire into the matter, as deceased was as alien. , So tenders have been received for the purchase of the Stella. The Colonial Secretary finds it would be impossible to remedy the grievances laid before him by the Brewers deputa tion until the law w a.nended, The question will consequently have to bn considered by the Cabinet. Dunedin, January 20. At the Police Court 10-day Catherine Clifford, said to be the wife of the Hon. >V. Clifford, formerly a runholder in Marlborrugh, was charged with stealing a diamond rinp valued at £15 and £11 in money, at Gn y nouth Accu ed ple:«lt d guiliy, *nd her solicitor mado an appeal to the bench pointing out that she had come to the colony to visit her parents, and when on the eve of leaving the colony phe succumbed to the temptation placed in her way. It was a fit case for the Probation Act, but if she were placed under probation she would have to remain in the colony which would be the worst thinj that could happen to her. lhe. bench convicted the accused and ordered her to come up for sentence when called on. [This has no reference to the Hon. G. H. Clifford.] Invjbkcargill, January JU. It is possible that proceedings will be taken by Captain Sundstroir, of the steamer Invercargill, against the witnesses at the iLqucst on the child Byrne, who deposed that Sundstrom dragged the woman Byrne by the feet and sheved her. On the appearance of Sundstrom's denial in the press that he used the woman roughly, these witnesses rfcjoined with a better in which they leaffirmed the truth of their evidence. In the Press Associa tion telegram re inquest, the agent regrets that it was stated that the witnesses deposed that Sundstrom pushed or "kicked" the woman. The word should have been *« shoved." The message was made up from a viva vocc statement; hence the error. A man named John Russel 1, who has been several times before the Police Court, was found dead in the Corporation Keserve this morning, with a bottle of laudanum by his eide, and his pipe in hw mouth. It is supposed to be a case ot suicide. _

LABOR London, January 20. A number of memoir* of the House of Commons will support Mr J. Lowther's amendment to the Address in-Peply, aimed at preventing the in flux of destitute aliens into Great Britain. The distress among the cotton opera tives is greater than it has ever been since the American war, and there ap pears to be no prospect of a settlement of the dispute between the masters and the men.

1 Lord Carrington, spoakmg at the East End, said the cessation of State aided emigration ts New South Wales must not be taken as evidence of un kindness to Great Britain. The Admiralty has intimated its ap ! proval of Lord Charles Scott's action ! while in charge of the Australian station. "The .Times" says the colonial powers, of retrenchment inspire politic scepticism, and are sometimes even associated with designs for new loans. Before colonial stocks are likely to re cover, the mischievous system of at tracting men from the country into the towns must be checked. ,

TO-DAY'S TELEGRAMS.

(PER PBESS ASSOCIATION,) Hnlclde tit X.jlt«lton. Lyttelton, January 21. Ac 6.30 this morning information was given to the police that a woman named Fanny Childs, seventy-three years, one of the oldest residents of Lyttelton, was found drowned in a concrete tank. She had been bed ridden a long time, with rheumatic and other complaints. Last night she waa very low in spirits, so one of har daughters slept with her. The daughter woke at four o'clock and missed her mother, roused her brother, and searched and fouud their mother's "body in the tank, which is three feet deep and full of water. The deceased's husband died about two years ago. They cele brated their golden wedding four years ago. Much sympathy is felt for the family, who are all grown up, the sons being nearly all in business in Lyttelton and much respected. - Tyiroyraplileal. Wellington, January 21. The report of the Baard of Manage ment of the Wellington Typographical Society for the past five months, states that trade has been fairly prosperous in Wellington, notwithstanding the influx of compositors from other towns in the colony and Australia, the Government Printing Office having absorbed most of them.

A Nagging Wife.

A FACT. A. speaker was holding forth on woman and he mide out that she was just a little angel on earth. In glowing words he pictured how patient she was in suffering, How courage jus in trouble, and how alto gether gentle, loving, and good she was under all circumstances, and closed his peroration by declaring that any man who laid his hand on a woman, save in_the act of kindness, was a monster. After tne lecture, a pale, haggard, woe-begone looking man shuffled up to the speaker and aaid, " Look here, mister; I've heard what you've been saying about woman ; all about how nice and a wrest she is, why, one would imagine that you believed all women were just blushing full blown roses; I 'guess you don't know my wifr. Well

she haint no Mooming rose. She's a daisy, a reg'lar daisy, wisy mister my wife is a nagger, and there is'nt an hour, wh jn she's awake, but th*t ehe's nagging someone. If it is'nt me, its the children, it is'nt the children, it's the cat. There is nothing that escapes her nagging tongue, and the only time any of us gels any rest is when she has nagged herself to sleep." How like the nerves of a man who drinks; they just nag, nag all the time, giving no rest until enough liquor has been taken to deaden all nervous sensibility, and the poor fellow goes off in that sodden, snoring, miserable state that is but the rattling skeleton of a healthy sleep. R. T. Booth's Golden Remedy No 1 puts an end to all this nagging of the' nerves by destroying all desire for liqiior. R. T. Booth's Golden Remedy No 2 is, the best Brain and Nerve Tonic on this earth. All chemists. I

Lost in the Bush.

One of Dunedin's oldest inhabitants, who is still hale and hearty, has owned one of the coiner sections in the city ever since the first sale of town land took place, soon after the foundation of the settlement. The original price was only £12 10s, but it is now worth at least £50,000. When the diggings rush took place a Melbourne merchant wanted to buy the section, and offered him £1000 for it. This seemed at the time a fabulous sum to the owner, who, however did not want to sell, "Gae awa' wi' ye mon" he said to the tempter, *' ye canna have come^ by your money honestly or ye wadnia be sac free wi' yer thousands."— Extract from the "Bulletin," June 28, 1890. Gentle reader, the above paragraph is reply instructive. You all have heard of the man who swopped his land in CJnllins Street, Melbourne, for a bottle of rum, because his land was " too far in the bush." Most of you know men, who to day are Wea'thy through their foresight in buying land and holding in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane, etc. After having read the above just think for a moment, does it not strike you that now is the time for you to buy land at Perth, the capital city of Western Aus trali», " ihe coming colony." It is now scarcely 18 months since responsible Government was granted, and the "Cinderella" of the ground has taken her position beside her sister colonies and will prove a formidable rivil. Business and villa site** may be purchased in Perth from £5 5s per lot, payable 10s monthly, no interest charged. Title, clear cer tificate. Plans and full particulars from P/Callighan, junr., 134 Swanson-street, corner of Little Collins t treet, Melbourne. N.B.— Every lot is guaranteed high, well drained, free from any defects, and per fect building land.
