INQUESTS.

At the irquest held by the acting coroner, Mr W. Morgan, J.P., at Methven, on the body of the late Samuel P. Tierney, the jury, of whom Mr G, H. Baker was chosen foreman, returned a verdiot in accordance with the medical testimony, that the oause of death was chronic congestion of the lungs, accelerated by the excessive use of alcoholic liquor. Mr R. Alcorn, J.P., aobing coroner, held an inquest at Mrs Sootb's house, Havelock street, yesterday morning, on the body of the female infanb child of Alice Soobt. The most important evidence waß that of the medical attendant, Dr. Hngh Hunter, who said that he saw the body on Thursday morn ing. Made an external examination of it, and came to the conclusion that death had resulted from suffocation; This might easily have been caused by the child being held too tightly to the mother's breaat. If the month , and nostrils were cleeed for half a minute that would be sufficiently long to cause death. The body was that of a fu!ly developed, Btrong, and healthy child. Had not made a post mortem examination, as he was satisfied that the cause of death was suffocation. The jury returned a verdict in accordance with the medical testimony— that deceased was accidentally suffocated.

Druids' Social and Ball.

On Thursday night a most successful social and ball was held in the Orange Hall. The entertainment was given by the Ashburton Lodge of Druid*, a committee of which had been busy for some time arranging matters ia connection with the entertainment. The hall was uncomfortably crowded with Druids and their friends. At eight o'clock, the hall being then full, the fctage curtaiu rose, and revealed both lodges of Druids, in druidical robes, n Qged iv a circle around the Druids' fLe. The opening musical ceremony of ihe order having been gone through, the bal was opened, Mr« Scrint, and Meesra William McOausland, Dunoin Leitch, Past District President Pearson, and B:o H. Stepheßßon supplying the music. At a later period of the evening, Worthy Arch-Druid Higgins, thanked ail for their attendance, and pointed out the many advantages to be'derived from joining the friendly societies, the Druids in particular. He showed that, having once joined a friendly society, when help was needed, it was freely given, without) having even the suspicion of charity attached. The social benefits derived were great, and anyone who fully entered into the spirit, atid carried out the precepts, of these friendly societies would find himself well fitted to assume any position in life. The young men and young women of these colonies had much greater advantages and opportunities than their fathers and mothers ha 1 in the Old Country, an 1 these joined to the advantages to be gained from friendly societies, placed opportunities within their reach of im proving their positions in life. Brother Pick ford referred to the recent forma tion of a ladies' Druid lodge in Ashbur ton, and spoke in terms of piai«e of all who had helped to bring that lodge to the catis fuctory position it now held. He pointed out the advantages of joining this ladies' lodge, and urged all young women to join. During the evening songs were giveu by Sister Gobbe, and by Messrs Brooking, Higgins, Chalmers, Jamieson, Pearson, and Pickford; Mies Taylor gave two well executed recitations. During the night Mr Marsden brought his gramophone into use, and its performances created much interest and amusement. A hearty vote of thanks was passed to Mr Mareden for bis kindness in supplying the eutertainment. Dancing and games of various kinds, special tables for the latter being provided, were kept going until about two o'clock, when a mcsl success ful entertainment broke up.

LORD BRASSEY'S "NAVAL ANNUAL."

Serious Aspersion on His Lordship

United Press Association—By Klec&rlo Telegraph—Copyright

London, July 28 General Sir George Willis, speaking to the Primrose League at Bourne mouth, said he was unable to under stand the Government permitting the issue of Lord Brassey's " Naval annual." The publication was most detrimental to the British Navy, as it revealed secrete, and contained a statement regarding weak points at Portsmouth. These were unknown to himself as an official and must have been concocted He alleged it was a breach of futh on the part of Lord Brassey when Secretary of the Admiralty. Mr J. Hogan, M.P. for Tipperary, has given notice to ask Mr Goschen if the aspersions are justified. I

Awarded diploma at the Amsterdam Exhibition, 1883. Acknowledged by Medical Clinics and Universities all over the Globe. There are imitations of Eucalypti Extract in the market, products of simple distillation forming crude resinous oils. In order that these crude oils may not be taken, OUR PURE VOLATILE EUCALYPTI EXTRACT, which is recognised by the medical division of the Prussian Government to be of perfectly pure origin, as per information forwarded to us through the Consul at Melbourne, March 2, 1878, we bate :-- It is proved by tests by the Medical Clinic of the Universities at Bonn and Greifswald, Prussia, and reported by Dr. Sohulz,Professor of Parmacology, at Bon, and Professor Dr; Mossier, Director sf the Medical Clinicß at Greifswald, that only products that are saturated with oxygen a.id freed of aoids, resinous and other substanoes, adherent to primary distillation, will develope the sanative qualities proper to the plant All crude oils, or so called Eucalypti Extraots are to be classed according to the named authorities, among the turpenirinee, which abandoned long since as an internal medicament. These crude oils, or so called Eucalypti Extracts, are discernible ;— I By their deficiency in pungent odour— which our product, the only genuine Eucalypti Extract develops mosb freely through its surplus oxygen. By their alcoholic thin and mobile appear ance being reduced in specifio density through tae presence al acids. By their taste, the result of the contracting tendency of resins and tennates.
