The Evening Star. MONDA Y, OCTOBER 3, 1870.

Now that Parliament has been prorogued preparatory to dissolution of the House of ' i epresentatives, it can scarcely be sail to bo premature if we suggest that it is time we began to consider who should be our future representatives. 'The pre sent lull doubtless precedes political storms, and though there is not a word from those who in their hearts have re solved on " wooing the sweet voices " of electors, when a few weeks elapse we shall have candidates " thick as leaves in " Vallambrosa." In order to nip vain ambition in tho bud, and prevent our being nauseated with the pretensions of the " lag rag and bobtail " which a general election invariably brings to the front, it is right that respectable names should at once be mentioned, so that the constituencies may have oppor tunity of fully canvassing qualifications, and have timely notice should proposed honors be declined. This city should have the most able and influential mem bers that it can possibly obtain, and with this object it is in the highest degree de sirable that an effort should be made to have the Colonial Treasurer as represen tative of one of the divisions of the city of Auckland. We say this the more freely from having somewhat bitterly criticised portions of the policy of the Ministry of which he is a member, Lut feeling that the scheme of colonization with which the Fox-eum-Vogel Ministry is identified, should cover a multitude of sins. * There are those in Auckland who question the wisdom of Mr. Vogel's fiscal policy, but there can scarcely be one who does not Hfimire the bold and fiarless spirit that cut the Gordian knot entangling ih< auestions in tbe San Francisco mail route. There are those who may feel towards him as a stranger and a Southern intruder, but we question if there is one taking an interest m public affairs that does not look on him as one of the most adva: ced and progressive iv the Australasian c-.lonies. Bold inconception, determined in execution, untrammelled by red tape, and point blank in thought aud action, he is one of those intended by na ture to infuse vigour into the babyhood ot a young empire. ' Mr. Vogel's return to the House is a colonial necessity, and in that House he will have a seat; but in the circumstances, consider ing the influence he exerts on le gislation, it is not difficult to see that it might be to the interest of Auckland to have all that influence in the hand of her own representative. It is an admitted maxim in representation that a cabinet minister should not repre.-ent a popular constituency. But the argument on which it rests is wholly in favour of the con stituency doing its utmost to obtain sum representative. For though the influence possessed by him might be, diverted to the prejudice of the general interest, it is supposed that his constituency is the gainer. This is certainly a selfish way of looking at the question, but all constituencies are selfish, and if Auckland will not have a live Minister of the Crown, other places will, and exactly for the aforesaid reason. Mr. Vogel is now iden tified in all his inter; sis with Auckland. Villi our prosperity he rises, by our ~)sses he falls. In so far he has quali iicatio'is desirable a- a representative; and whether iv office cs Colonial Trca surer, or in his place as a member on the floor of the House, he has .the talent to command attention, to serve the interests of his constituents, and to identify the place he represents with the foremost ranks in the most progressive movements of the country. We know that there are many holding these convictions, and we would strongly urge that a requisition to allow himself to be placed in nomination should be at, once prepared and presented to Mr. Vogel as the best recognition of intellectual ability and undoubted special services to the city of Auckland.

As will be seen from another column, Mr. D. K. Clarkson has removed from Lower Queen-street to High-street, opposite Low and Motion's. We are glad to learn that, as we anticipated, Air. Clarkson has found that the kind feelings which he had won for him self in Auckland when iv another department, of business have been continued to him in his new profession. We are confident that any commissions entrusted to him as a collector of rents and debts will be executed with fidelity and despatch, and that he will give the utmost satisfaction to those for whom he may have business to transact. In common with a general feeling, we wish Mr. Clarkson a very great success.

As a cartoon for the "Tomahawk," the " Motley," or whatever the publication next doing the fun^y business in Auckland, we recommend Air. Cunningham in the Police Court waiting for a magistrate. The figure of patient resignation, bending over the deposi tion book, with one eye watching through the windows west, the other peering through the windows south. " There goes a beak—nail him! Hallo! there's another—collar him ! " Constables around in dignity, reporter whistling, the public expectant, and lawyers maledicant. To the habitues of the hall of justice it would lack the charm of novelty, but to the outside world it would be strictly ex pressive of customs and forms of procedure now estabUshed in the Police Court.

It is satisfactory to know that the Kaipara trade will be re-opened by the s.s. St. Eilda, which vessel has been laid on to run between that inland sea and the Manuk.u. The benefit to the settlers in that fine district wilj be very great, and the regularity of communi-

Citkn once established will largely develope its latent resources. The St.-Kilda leaves Onehunga on her first trip on Saturday next, at noon. A funny kind of a sect called the " Truth ' se.'kcr." was formed yesterday. There is a book called, somebody "in search of a religion;" ' and we think the hero need not go further ' than Auckland. But there is a speciality in the new light that commends it to notice. Diogenes went about with a lighted candle in daylight looking for an honest man, and the members of the new sect will have as diffi cult a quest in Auckland. Truth is said to be at the bottom of a well, but wherever it i; we hope they will find it. In a fit of annoyance a good man once said that all men are liars, and we have heard it remarked that cool re flection might have confirmed this "jump" at a conclusion. We commend to the atten tion of the " Seekers" all newspaper corres pondents, reporters, and the whole tribe of newspaper writers. If truth is found among them, we recommend its being placed in the museum of the Polytechnic as a natural curiosity. We wish success to the " Seekers," and shall be glad to hes.r more of them. 'Ihere was a full house at the Prince of Wales Theatre on Saturday night last, and "Marie Stuart" was produced with marked success. The " Colleen Bawn," with Miss Evans as "Eily O'Connor," will be the play

this evening. One of the last Carandini concerts that, probably, Auckland will ever enjoy, is to be given in the City Hall this evening. The programme is a beautiful one, and every person that likes to hear the Carandinis sing, and who does not ? should come and enjoy the treat provided. There was a very good attendance at the Theatre Royal on Saturday night, and the " varieties" submitted, consisting of songs, dancing, aud gymnastics generally, were re ceived with much satisfaction. The entertain ment will be continued to-night. The monthly meet ng of the committee of the Mechanics' Institute will be held in the library of that institution to-night.

The English telegrams may be expected here on Thursday next by the s.s. Wonga Wonga from Sydney.

Major Ropata aud his followers, numbering about eighty of the Ngatiparoas, have re turned to their home 3. The schooner Colonist having them on board, and destined for Riparoa, was spoken by the Comerang in Poverty Bay.

A meeting of Volunteers resident in Ded wood will be held this evening, in the building at the rear of the Rev. Mr. Bree's residence, St. Mary's Road.

The regular monthly meeting of Lodge Ara, 348, 1.C., will be held in the lodge-room,

this evening.

CORRESPONDENCE

We are not responsible for our Correspondents' opinions.

To the Editor of the Evening- Star.,

Sib, —The General Assembly has closed probably on one of the most important sessions ever experienced in this colony. To the min isterial policy, assuming as it did at the out set somewhat gigantic proportions, we a"c in debted in a great measure to the Hon. Julius Vogel, now a citizen of Auckland. 'That gentleman has returned to the city of his adoption, and avoiding any criticism of his words, acts, or deeds, 1 may, nevertheless, be permitted to suggest that Air. Vogel is worthy of an ovation of no ordinary character. As Mr. Vogel's scheme of legislation has been so impartial having in all its bearings a ten dency in favour of the general colonial weal, especially towards the amelioration of the con lition of the industrious working classes, I most respectfully suggest the propriety of showing that gentleman some feelings of ap probation. lam no sycophant,; therefore, ad reftiendum, I would suggest that the people —not tbe upper eleven, nor the Editor of the Evening News —should without delay consti tute a Committee, elected from themselves, to frame a programme of entertainment suitable in every respect to the merits and abilities of Mr. Vogel. Whatever that entertainment might culminate in, no greater honor could bo conferred upon the Colonial Treasurer than by petitioning him to allow himself to be placed in nomination at the next election to repre sent Auckland proper. A' r. Vogel is now es sentially one of us, and. it is our interest as ivell as our duty to retain him, and to disallow any other provincial pretensions to secure his services in a political or social point of view. A Fbiend to Peogeess.

CITY BOARD MEETING.

THIS DAY.

The usual monthly meeting of the City Board was held jesterday afternoon at the office of the Board, Canada Buildings. Present: — Alessrs. P. A. Philips (Chairman), Sceats, Dtaines, Alacready, Hampton, George, Smart, Ukins. MINUTES. The minutes of the previous meeting were read. Mr. Staines drew attention to the fact fiat when he presented a petition last week in reference to Upper Queen-street, one of the membeis of the Board had hissed. He also objected to the way in which the Streets Committee met together and transacted busi ness. Mr. Staines thought the hissing was a breach of privilege. Mr. Grobg-e did not know the Board had any privileges. Mr. Sceats objected to the way in which the Streets Committee met together and transacted business.

Mr. Alacbeady, as one of the Streets Com mittee, said he did not think that that com mittee had acted properly in the matter of the water carts. He was not present himself on the occasion.

Mr. fcTAiNES said there was no Streets' Committee. " They were a clique on their own hook."

Air. Atkin thought if the members were to indulge in personal abuse the sooner the Board broke up the better. The statements that had been made were false. His own opinion was, that the Chairman was in fault. He had no wish himself to be called a hum bug. He had no wish to deprive the mem bers of their " noble rights." Air. Macready drew attention to the In spector of Nuisances, in reference to the case 3 of barbers' poles, sign-boards, &c, and de fended the conduct of Air. Young in the matter. The Herald had been very hard upon him, which he thought he had hardly deserved.

SPECIAL TELEGRAM

MAGNIFICENT RETURN

Geahamstown, 3 p.m The Shotover lodged this morning 1282 ozs. of gold with the Bank. There is another lot to come to-day. Caledonia looking well-

QUEENSLAND DIGGINGS.

(FBOM THE BRISBANE COURIEB, SEPT. 3.)

GLADSTONE.

Four men, in a hole thirty feet deep, took out £4400 worth of quartz, and crushed it with hand labor; both the quartz and gold are increasing going down. This is now abandoned for want of machinery.

The Gladstone Observer of the 18th instant sa y S . —" The news by lust night's mail from Kroouibit is eonflic'ing. Numbers of miners had left for Rockiiampton and Stony Creek ; but the Victorian hands still stick to their claims, waiting for the dry weather to enable them to sink. A story is told of a well known Calliope miner, who purchased a Kroombit claim for £1. Soon after he took possession he found a seven ounce nugget.

GYMPIE.

The Gympie Times of August 24, gives the following sumimry of mining news:—"We congratulate the community upon the large amount of gold forwarded to Maryborough yesterday —viz., 5996 ozs 16 dwts 7 grs, or within 3 ozs 3 dwts 17 grs of 6000 ozs. Of this quantity within 3603 ozs 7 dwts 12 grs were sent by the Joint Stock Bank, and 2193 ozs 8 dwts 19 grs by the Bank of New South Wales."

ROCKHAMPTON.

The latest intelligence from New Zealand Gully is satisfactory. We are informed on reliable authority that there are twelve claims of four men each in the gully, which are yielding from £8 to £14 per week per man. Our informant estimates that the ground at present, opened uo will give employment to about 3,0 men for two or three months. There are from 800 to 900 men on the ground, many of whom are engaged in prospecting, with every hope of success, as the country is very likely looking. We are requested to en n't ion miners intending to try their luck at the new rush that it is usslcss to go unless they are prepared for prospecting. There is a very large extent of t.uriferous country in the neighbourhood, but every inch of known pajable ground is taken up,

WESTERN CREEK.

The last rush of any consequence in this part of tho district was, about two mouths since, to Talbot Creek, a tributary of the Delaney, and the best nugget-producing locality yet discovered in this part of the country. It was here that, some five or cix months ago, two large pieces of 62 and 50 ozs were found, besides others from 18 ozs downwards; and more recently a nugget of 69 ozs was obtained, another of about the same weight, and within the last three weeks one of 39 ozs 15 dwts, another of 10 ozs 6 dwts, and several others from iozs upwards.

A meeting of the members of the Auckland Total Abstinence Society will bo held to morrow evening, at the Young Men's Christ-
