The Evening Echo. TUESDAY, DECEMBER 17, 1878.

The questions of irrigation for fertilizing purposes, and. of water-supply to towns and villages for domestic, sanitary, and fire-extinguishing purposes, are intimately connected, and yet at variance. In both cases, the water must be collected at the base of the mountain rangas, or at some point in each of the river-beds, where the supply of water —though/ varying in quan tity, according to circumstances —never entirely fails ; and such point] must in each case be at a height a§iove the level of the place to be supplied as will afford the necessary pressure for hydrants and upper-storey taps, and the fall re quired for irrigation. Wherever the domestic supply is not naturally filtered through gravel or sand, it will require artificial filtration. But the supply for irrigation requires to remain charged with the fertilizing ingredients—such as lime, and various earthy salts, which exist in the lower portions of the ranges. Pure water alone would not do much towards fertilizing the most stony and bare por tions of the plain. But water charged with earthy matter would deposit fertile soil among, and a-top, of the stones, whereon corn, grass, and other green crops, as well as trees, might then be grown, although the attempt would now perhaps be hopeless. Think of the immense quantity of fertilizing matter that is washed out to sea and wasted, along with a still larger quantity of lost water, by all the larger rivers of New Zealand, on every occasion of their being swollen so as to fill their beds from bank to bank, or overflow their banks, and cause vast damage to property, as well as danger to human life. If all the silt washed down by the Rakaia could be deposited in Lake Ellesmere by the river’s flood-waters and spread over the lake’s broad area, it would not be many years before that area would be reclaimed, and become very fertile, dry land. An outlet might be provided for the water when discharged of its valuable burden, as well as for the waters of the Selwyn, Halswell, Little River, and smaller tributaries of the lake. That pro '-’ss, applied to the flooded waters of phe TR'v dumber in England, has resulted in the reclamation of hundreds of thousands of acres on both sides cf its estuary. K is there called - warping.” The process is there rendered difficult and costly, by. the necessity of keeping putatide, which rises, if we remember aright, some twenty feet 01 so the reclaimed land being far below hieli-water mark, and the pure, fresh water being only discharged - at, or near, the lowest state of the tide. . On the coast outside the narrow strip of shingle between Lalrn Ellesmere and the sea, the rise of the tide is not more than five or six feet; and the reclaimed land would eventually rise above the level of high water, and thus be easily drained at little cost, compared with that at which the drainage of the lake in its present state, with the paltry result, qf reclaiming a small strip of land round its shores, pas been estimated. Probably, neither the drainage plan for which Mr. Hardy Johnston has furnished an estimate, nor the - warping” plan, which we have heard vaguely suggested as far more desirable, will be accomplished, or even attempted, during the present generation. But it is quite possible that, before many more years shall have expired, water and earthy which »QW go

to waste in the sea out of the mouths of many New Zealand rivers, may be utilized in a double way : The water, freed of ifcs valuable contents, to meet domestic and other wants in populous places now unre lieved ; the earth, to make barren tracts fertile, and to augment the area of land, on which the Divine command may be happily obeyed—-Be fruitful, multiply, and re plenish the land, and subdue it.” If the land were rendered sufficiently fruitful for the growth of forest trees, the climate itself would become more moist and genial to cultivation, and tlio supply of rain-water would be far greater than it now is. - ■ - -

We earnestly call the attention of states men, of patriots—-who really wish; to sae their adopted country improved—and of engineers—who wish . to achieve a great reputation, as well as a great fortune—to the twofold plan roughly indicated in the above remarks. Water-supply alone, although urgently needed, cannot compare with water-supply and irrigation combined. The extension of fertility to the greater portion of the plains, which are now almost barren, would add an afcnonnt of prosperity to the towns and villages, for which they might well be more thirsty than even fox pure water.

Wesleyan Bazaar. —This bazaar opened to-day at about three o’clock, in the Town Hall. There is a large stock of goods— both useful and ornamental —and a strong staff of fair traders to dispose of them. The bazaar opening so late in the day pre vents us from noticing it at any length, so that we simply mention it to our readers, with the hint that a crowd of visitors will ing to do business is the only desideratum of the fair stall-keepers to make the bazaar one that has fulfilled its mission, which, as the public know, is to raise aid to the building fund of the Wesleyan cause in this district. Tea will be obtain able at the hall from 4 to 6. Anniversary of Canterbury.—Yester day the anniversary of Canterbury was celebrated as a holiday all over the pro vincial district. Here most of the shops were closed, and the population went in for excursions in various directions. In Christchurch, the day was duly honored, and a variety of attractions were provided. A commemoration servjce was held in the Cathedral to celebrate the anniversary of the settlement, and to welcome the Pri mate on his return from the Lambeth Con ference. Temporary seats had been pro vided in the Cathedral, and every available space was occupied by worshippers. The united choirs of the Christchurch and suburban churches took part in the service. An address to the Primate was read by the Dean of Christchurch. There was a great Fire Brigade field-day, and nearly all the brigades from Dunedin northwards to Kaiapoi were represented. The Christ church men entertained the visitors to breakfast, and this over, sports were held in Hagley Park. These passed off in the usual way panel after dark tlie day’s doings finished with a sfdendid torchlight proces sion by the Fire Brigade, and a display of fireworks.

School Examination. —The school exa mination has been in progress all day. The examiners are the Rev. C. Fraser, Christchurch, and Dr. Macbean Stewart, Ashburton. The more advanced pupils have been taken in hand by Mr. Fraser, while the juniors have been undertaken by the doctor. The Rev. Mr. Elmslie wa3 expected to take part along with the Rev. Mr. Fraser, but was unable to be present, and Dr. Stewart at once under took the work himself in Mr. Elmslie’s place. There was an attendance of per haps 250 scholars to-day, who presented a very neat, tidy appearance. The work of examination will extend over to-mor row. It is no light matter in such a large school, but every assistance is being ren dered by the teachers, whose arrangements are of the most complete and satisfactory kind.

The Sports. —A meeting was held last night of those favorable to the getting up of sports for Boxing Day, and a committee was appointed to collect subscriptions, and draw up a programme, the latter to be submitted to another meeting to-night. Ashburton Racing Club.— A general meeting of the members will be held at the Road Board oflice on Wednesday evening, to receive the Treasurer’s finan cial report and balance-sheet.

I.O.G.T.—An advertisement in our issue of this evening states that members of the Independent Order of Good Temp lars, desirous of attending the special session of the Grand Lodge in Christchurch are to attend at the railway station on Wednesday evening (to-morrow) at 4.10 p.m. in order to leave by the 4.20. express.

Seafield Wesleyan Church.— On Sun day next services in . celobration - of this Church will be held, when sermons will be preached by the Rev. Mr. Marten and. Mr J. E. Buchanan. On Christmas Day a tea meeting will be held in the'new chapel, followed by a public meeting at which addresses will be given, and music supplied by the choir of the Ashburton church. Arrangements are being made for the conveyance of Ashburton friends. Death of a Gifsy Queen.— Matilda Stanley, Queen of the American Gipsies, died last February, and was recently buried at Drayton, Ohio, in the presence of 20,000 spectators. The body of the late queon had been embalmed in such a man ner as to retain the natural aspects of life. The body was placed in a vault, and each day the reigning king, Levi Stanley, or some member of the queen’s family visited the spot and strewed the body with choice flowers, A Clerical Mayor. —The ancient borough of Appleby, in Westmoreland, has just elected a clergyman as mayor, who has for some time been one of the aldermen of the borough. ’T'he Rev.

CRICKET.

Ashburton v. Seafield. -... A match was played between these clubs in Mr. Hay Smith’s paddock yesterday, and, after a well-contested game,’resulted in a victory for the Ashburton team The Seafield Club was represented by only seven players, and considerable' 'praise is due to them for the plucky and - creditable manner in which they opposed a full eleven. S. Saunders, winning the toss, elected to first occupy the debatable ground, and Denshire and the captain were the first to . appear. at the wickets, Buchanan and Westenra commencing the attack. In Buchanan’s second , over, .S. Saunders'put a bumpy one into' Westenra’s hands at short slip. E. Saunders fol lowed, and, with Denshire, rapidly brought up the score to 57, when the former fell a victim to a Yorker, having played a very useful and well-hit innings of 20. Den shire was in his very best form, and his 30 was obtained by the pretty cricket we have previously had occasion to notice. Of the others. Grant alone made any stand, car rying out his bat v ‘for a carefully-playpd 12. ■ : <

Ashburton . was first ‘ represented by Pearce and Buchanan. The former was well set, when he had the misfortune to play one of Field’s into his wicket. Wes tenra came in after six wickets had fallen for 35, and by dint of right-down slogging rapidly placed the score in a more satis factory condition. His 41 included seve ral nice hits, but was not obtained without some assistance from luck. Pratt put 11 on to the total when they were much required, and with practice this gentle man will take a higher rank amongst our cricketers.

Seafield commenced their second innings by sending Grant and S. Saunders to resist the attack of Buchanan and Pearce, and these players, by most patient cricket against the best bowling we have seen for some time, brought the score to 40 before they were separated. Grant was Go minutes at the wickets for his 12, and showed a very strong defence. Saunders soon followed, again placing one from the fast bowler into the short slip’s hands. None of the others contributed largely, the innings closing for G 7, leaving the local team 55 wanting to win, which they obtained with the loss of only three wickets. W. Harris played remarkably well for bis 20 not out, and Pearce was again to the fore with 18. The bowling of Westenra, Buchanan, and Pearce was good. Foolcs and Grant long-stopped, as usual, well, but if we except W. Harris and Westenra, we cannot speak highly of the fielding generally. The following are the scores :

FATAL RAILWAY ACCIDENT.

(From the Correspondent of The Press.) Invercargill, Monday.

A .fatal accident, through cattle straying on to the lines in consequence of their unfenced condition, occurred on Saturday, fifty-two miles from Invercargill, between Oteria and Pukerau. About a quarter after four in the afternoon, the contrac tor’s train, consisting of an engine and trucks, carrying several workmen, was going in the direction of Clinton. Just before reaching its destination, cattle were seen on the line, and the usual alarm was whistled. One animal attempted to cross the line. Steam was shut off, but the brute faced and rushed at the engine, and was caught by the cow catcher, which unfor tunately over rode the animal. The engine, after travelling about two chains, went off the line, ran along about thirty feet, and capsized over a six foot embankment. The truck nearest the engine turned completely oyer, partly burying the engine. The two next trucks toppled over on to the first, all the woodwork being smashed. Proud foot’s carpenter, John Mainland, was rid ing on the first truck and was nearly buried, a small portion only of his legs protruding. Death was instantaneous. John Hough, engine driver, was thrown off the engine, and his face severely scalded. Peter Oliver Webb, the fireman, had amiraculous escape. When the engine went over the bank, he was thrown off, and dragged for a distance, and finally buried by a portion of the ballast which was on the deceased man. He says lie must have been in sensible for a time owing to the shock and suffocating nature of the stuff enveloping him, but luckily he came to, and finding ail aperture.leading under the cowcatcher managed to escape. Nearly two chains of rails were displaced, the rails being twisted iiito all shapes. The workmen with the train commenced to clear the track after wards, assisted by a gang brought from Gore specially. The passengers from Dunedin by the up train to Invercargill were transferee! to the special, reaching their destination two and a half' hours late.

The Dr. replied that it was very good, and Rewi responded—“ I shall have the Europeans to work it.

THE CHURCH AND THE STAGE.

At the Church Congress recently held at Sheffield, the Rev. the' Earl of Mulgrave read a paper dealing chiefly with the relations of the Church to the stage, and with the necessity for dramatic reform. He said the theatre must be regarded as an important agent in' the education of the people. . The fact of its having become vicious was no argument whatever against what was in its own essence and highest forms good. Vice and buffoonery, the children of a depraved public taste,, might disgrace dramatic art, but the drama was not to be decried on that account.

A discussion followed, in which Mr, Smith, the Rev. W. Boyd Carpenter, and the Rev. G. Everard took part. The last named gentleman denounced the theatre iu strong terms, and said that either it must be given up or Christ must-be lost. The Bishop of Manchester, who was re ceived with loud applause, said that from the manner in which the subject had been discussed generally that morning, their Christianity seemed to him to have be coiue more human and more reasonable, and those were the . only Conditions on which it could be put forward as a work ingpporer to the world. Though he should be the last to., recommend that, Christianity should take for its standard the-world, and the actual instincts of nature with which it had to deal: and, though he could not deny, in faithfulness to the church, the principle of the de pravity of human nature, still he rejoiced to believe that the mark of the Divine image in which man was made was still more deeply impressed upon human nature, than the mark of the beast. For the moment his breath had been almost taken away by that tremendous utterance of one of the previous speakers, who said that either the theatre must be aban doned or Christ lost. He could not for a. moment endorse that sentiment. In his; opinion, the stage with us was very much what we made it. He had told a lady who had written to him on the sub ject of an objectionable ballet at a panto mine that if she would only influence all her friends, and persuade them to influence all whom they could influence, to stay away from the pantomine for one single week, he thought that the evil would be cured. It too often happened that they patronised the very things which in their more unctuous and professional moods they condemned. "What they had to deal with first was the hollowness of society on this matter. The heart of society was not sound on the question. They had no right, to condemn or declaim against the theatre until they had by some definite act of their own tried to amend-it. The disease that had been so loudly complained of that morning was not functional, but organic. The women could do a great deal of the work needed. If mothers would not allow in their homes anyone, however desirable in point of fortune, as matches for their daughters whom they knew to be men of corrupt lives ; if young women would not allow faßt and fashion able men to say to them • things they would hardly dare to say to a woman of i. the town ; if they would surround them selves with a fence with which modesty could always surround itself, a powerful., iufluence, almost immeasurable in its, con sequences, might be brought to bear upon the elevation of society; and he did not think the theatre would eyey purified till society we? ejeyatgd*
