The Evening Star. TUESDA Y, OCTOBER 4. 1870.

T' c proceedings to-day in the Newton .Aca demy did not evoke that interest which might have been anticipated from the number of names before the electors, and of those who had retired from the contest. It may be that the shadow of the ballot box has thrown its calming influence over the last of the elections under the old regime, and so, as far as New Zealand is concerned, the era of the bludgeon and the brickbat will have closed in peace. And yet the election now pending is very far from being void of importance as affecting the wellfare of the Newton elec torate, and the general interests of the province. We do not desire to say one word against the qualifications and possible future usefulness of any one of the candidates pro posed. They are, doubtless, every one good and worthy men, and all capable of becoming pillars of the State. But we would put it to the people of Newton—may there not be a danger of their interests being; very ma terially affected by the compulsory absence of Mr. Creighton from the hustings. It was of course generous and chivalrous for his opponents to propose and second this gentleman in his absence, but it cannot be supposed that they should have been so fully aware of his suitableness, or so forcibly ex pressed them as many of his supporters should have desired. We do not reflect on the intelli gence of the people of Newton, but it is invariably found that people are greatly in fluenced by the voice that has last had pos session of .he ear of the crowd, and if the electors of Newton are so far afflicted by the circumstance of Mr. Creighton's bsence through illness as to endanger his return, evil may result not only to the con stituency, but of the province. Whatever may be said of the other candidates, Mr. Creighton's absence from the Council would be a public loss ; and though we are con vinced that the centleman has friends and supporters enough in the district to place him at the head of the poll; there is just the possibility that want of effort, coupled with the absence of the candidate, may tend to his defeat. We would counsel our Newton friends to show by their votes that they appreciate intellect and influence, and to be guarded that the working of little petty cliques do not make them contemptible, deprive them of a member in whom they, can feel pride, who haß declined a much larger constituency for their sake, and who is cap , able of taking the foremost stand in the Pro" i jvincial Council. I

A most successful concert was given last night by the Carandini family at the City Hall. Mr. and Madame Winter with of course MrfSherwin and Mr. Small assisted, and the reception obtained showed that the people of Auckland will be loth to lose this charming company. At the Prince of Wales theatre last night the Colleen Bawn was excellently produced and received. To-night the play is Eaßt Lynne, in which Miss Evans appears as Lady Isabel.

We have been informed that at the meeting of the Naval Volunteers this evening, the prizes won last week will be distributed to the successful competitors.

The half-yearly tea meeting in connection with the congregation worshipping in the Music Hall, i^*ymonds-street, will take place on Thursday evening next. A soiree and concert, in connection with St. Mathias' Church, Pa mure, will take place to-morrow evening. A meeting of the shareholders of the Otago Gold Mining Company is advertised to take place on Monday next. The first monthly morning parade of the Auckland. Rifle "Volunteers tor the present season took place in the Albert Barracks yes terday morning. Considering the unfavourable state of the weather, there was a very good attendance, more than 100 rank and file bein^ on parade. Captain Tisdall was present, and the Volunteers were put through the usual evolutions.

The Kight Rev. the Bishop of Auc-'and was a passi-^er by the s.s. Airedale yesterday for We'-'-jg.^n. A mee'i'.n-; of the members of the Auckland I'otal Abstinence Society will be held this evening, at the Rooms of the Young Men's Christian Association.

The Bank of Australasia received by the p.s. Williams, from the Thames, last evening, 2755 ozs. of gold, the usual monthly ship ment.

A meeting of persons interested in the forma tion of a Caledonian Society was held last evening, at the Old House at Home Hotel, Hobson-street. There was not a very large attendance. Mr. J. C. McLecd was called to the chair, and he briefly stated the objec* for which the meeting was called. Considerable discussion took place as to whether a com mittee should be formed for the purpose of getting up a series of Caledonian games at the new year, or whether preliminary steps should be taken to form a Caledonian Society, which, on its part, could appoint a committee to get up the games. It was unanimously resolved to form a so ciety to be called the Auckland Caledonian Society, and those present at once put down their names as the first members. The meet ing then adjourned until next Monday even ing*, at the same time and place, when addi tional names will be enrolled and the society wil be at once set a going.

NEWTON ELECTION.

THIS DAY.

A meeting of the electors of the district of Newton was held to-day, at noon, at the hall of Newton Academy, for the purpose of nominating candidates for election to the Pro vincial Council. There was not a very nume rous representation of the constituency. Colonel Balneavis, as Returning O'Beer, occu pied the chair, and opened proceedings by reading the »rit of election. He then called upon the e'ectors to propose persons whon they might deem fit and proper to represent them in the Provincial Council, when,

Mr. Creighton was proposed by Mr, Shanaghan, and seconded by Mr. Chapman

Mr. W. Wrigg was proposed by Mr. Eastwood, and seconded by Mr. Sinclair. Mr. F. Cherry was proposed by Mr. Staines, and seconded by Mr. W lkes ; and Mr. Shanighan was proposed by Mr. Swanson, and seconded by Mr. Ch,»pman.

Owing to severe illness Mr. Creighton was unable to attend, but the other candidate nddressed the electors at considerable length, enunciating their views on subjects of general inteiest, and were su jected to the usual catechism, inte mingled with election "chaff."

On colling for a show of hands, Colonel Balneayis declared it to be in favour of Messrs. Slmnaghan and Cherry, and a poll was demanded on brbalf of Mr. Creighton. The Returning Officer announced that the poll would be taken to-morrow, >md that the election would be conducted in accordance with the old Act, in consequence of the writ being dated the Bth of September, and the new Act having reached Auckland on the 21st of the same month. The election will be therefore the last under the old arrange ments All future elections being decided by ballot. A vote of thanks was passed to the officer presiding, and the business, which did not seem to excite much interest, was brought quietly to a close.

CORRESPONDENCE.

We are not responsible for our Correspondents' opinions.

CORRECTION. To the Editor of the Eyening Star.

Sir, —[ shall feel obliged by your inserting a correction to the remarks said to have ema nated from Mr. Atkin at the City Board meet ing of yesterday. Mr. Staines, in taking ex ception to the action of the Streets Committee, charged Mr. Atkin with summoning those meetings, and concluding arrangements for water carts, &c. In reply, Mr. Atkin said it was not himself but the Chairman who summoned the meetings, and by whom the business to be discusse 1 was laid before them, and if any error occurred in concluding ar rangements for the water supply or any other business (which, however, he denied) it was then the fault of the Chairman, and not his. Your reporter merely says, ' His own ooinion was that the Chairman was in fault," without giving any of the subsequent discussion.—l am, &c, P. A. Philips, Chairman CitY Commissioners. October 4, 1870.

The Ladies Emancipation Society has offered a prize for the solution of the follow ing question in a serious way :—'•' How long does a widow mourn ?" The answer clearly is, " For a second."

MEETING OF CREDITORS.

A MEETING of creditors in the estate of Messrs. Harris and Laurie was held yesterday afternoon, at three o'clock. There were pre sent Messrs. Stewart, Burtt, J. S. Macfarlane, Bowman, C. A. Harris, Machattie, J. B. Russell (for Mr. Baker and Mr. S. H. Smith), Mr. A. J. Me Math (for Shaw, Saville and Co. and another), J. Roberton, Cruickshank, and several other creditors were represented by proxy. —Mr. Burtt said the principal busi ness "of the meeting was to enquire as to the non-payment of a bill of £1,500 and interest given by Craig. He had given that bill expecting to get some logs flown and cut up by the time it came due. But everythinsj had been done to thwart Mr. Craig, and try to ruin him, and he had therefore not'been able to pay it.—Mr. Hill asked the meeting, before proceeding further, to sanction the payment of the costs and sheriff's fees to Messrs. Bow man, who had agreed to withdraw an execu tion they had, on condition that those expenses were paid, in order that the mill might be sold. —Mr. Ma farlane said he recollected the arrangement, as also did the chairman. —Mr. Russell said it was the first intimation he had heard of the kind.—Mr. Harris said some parties had deceived Mr. Bowman in this matter. It was done with no other intention by some of the principal creditors, but the greater portion of the creditors knew nnthi- g about it. If this had been intended to be paid, the trustee had funds in hand to pay it. • —lhe matter dropped for a time.—Mr. Burtt said he had communicated -with the accountant in bankruptcy, telling him that the bill was dishonored, and asking what was to be done in the matter. The reply of the accountant was that a meeting had better be called, and let them decide what was beat to be done.—Mr. Machattie asked that the corres pondence and security should be pro duced. —Mr. Burtt said he had not brought the correspondence with him.— Mr. Macfarlane said all debts on the mill had been paid except this £1500. He had worked with Mr. Craig, and all would have been paid if it had not been for the action of Harris in thwarting Craig's work.—Mr. Machattie asked how many mortgages there were on the mill.—Mr. Burtt: Only one.— Mr. Machattie: Then take the mill and sell it.—Mr. Harris said Mr. Macfurlane's state ment was entirely untrue. He had done no thing to thwart Mr. Craig. The speaker went [ on to enumerate the property on which the trustee might have realized. He valued the property at £1900, and there had been pro- I erty cut up to the amount of £1600. —Mr. Bowman moved, " That Mr. Burtt, the trustee, be instructed to take steps to realize the amount of the bill and interest now due, and failing that to proceed to sell the

security."—Mr. Russell said the meeting ought to pass a vote of censure on the trustee, and if the estate had realized any loss by his negligence, he should be made to pay it- Mr. Macfarlane said the £TsuO would have been paid long ago if there had been no oppo sition and lawsuits.—Mr. J. B. Russell said he moved as amendment, " That previous to any steps being taken for selling the mill, the trustee, Mr. Burtt, shall produce the corres pondence between himself and the account ant in bankruptcy, and also the security he holds over the mill." —Mr. Machattie se conded the amendment.—Mr. Bowman said if there were any securities he would with draw his motion in favor of the amendment, but after some discussion he agreed to let it stand.—On examining the proxies, the Chair man declared that the proxy held by Mr. Harris being undera power of attorney wa< not a proxy under the Act. —The Chairman, on taking the votes, declared seven in favor of tbe amendment and twenty-nine in favor of the resolution. —'the resolution was therefore carried. —Mr. Machattie moved, " That the trustee be instructed to call anol her meeting and to produce an account of receipts and disbursements.—Mr. McMath seconded the motion, and it was carried.

After the proceedings of the meeting were terminated, several of those present remained behind and high words ensued which ended in a scuffle, the result of which was that in the melee Mr. C. A. Harris had his leg broken. The limb was bound up and a carriage was sent for and Mr. Harris con veyed home. During the course of the meet ing some rather personal remarks were in dulged in, but not to such an extent as it would appear took place after the proceedings of the meeting terminated, and which resulted in the above serious accident.

SEIZURE OF THE SCHOONER PERI.

The fore-and-aft schooner Peri, recently ar rived from the Islands, and which has been advertised to be sold by auction during the past week, was seized by the Customs authori ties yesterday afternoon, on a charge of smug gling.
