FRIDA V, SEPTEMBER 9, 1870.

At an emergency meeting of Lodge of SL Andrew held last night as a lodge of instruc. tion, a respected member of the brotherhood, Bro. Past Master Stevenson, was prepared for proceeding to the old country, in order to obtain for the newly enrolled members the diploma of the Grand Lodge of Scotland.

The promenade concert at the City Hall was, as usual, very well attended last night; and the performances of the popular Carandini family, of Mr. and Madame Winter, gave ex ceedingly great satisfaction.

The Prince of Wales Theatre last night showed a good house; " Ours, p ; Tale of the Crimean War," and " O'Callaghan on His Last Legs" being produced with excellent ef fect. To-night the programme will be re peated, and well deserves a crowded house.

At the monthly meeting of the Chamber of Commerce, there were present — Mr. T. Macffarlane (Chairman), Captains Daldy and Rattray, and Messrs. P. A. Philips, L. D. Nathan, R. Lusk, J. M. Clark, B. Tonks, J. M. Shera, Mason, J. Batger, and J. T. Garlick (Secretary). No business of importance waß formally transacted, but interesting conversa tion ensued on the information given by Mr. Macffarlane regarding the progress of various quertions before the Houses of Legislature.

We have learned that a passenger by one of the Thames boats yesterday was robbed of a purse containing over £10. As yet, we believe, no clue to the thieves has been discovered.

In the rooms of tho Young Men's Christian Association, to-night, the Rev. J. Buller will deliver a lecture on the subject, " Our Young Men."

G. Poole, as clerk and collector for the Waikomiti dis trict ; the calling of tenders for the gaol and hospital; and a list of mining leases granted, refused, withdrawn, or abandoned on the Thames goldfield.

The anniversary services will be held at the Baptist Church, Wellesley-street, on Sunday next, and the annual soiree will take place on the following Thursday. The third " conversazione," as it is termed, in connection with the Polytechnic Institu tion, will take place this evening.

What might have been a very serious acci dent occurred to-day, at the Hape Creek tramway, when a truck loaded with firewood ran off the line, and was smashed to pieces. It appears that a new break was put on the truck last night, and it was then taken up the line and loaded with firewood this morning, when the breaksman and another smarted it to come down the line. After traversing ash ,rt distance, the breaksman discovered that he had no control over the wagon, as the break did not act. He at once gave in formation to the other man, and desired him to jump off when he told him. In jump ing off he fell 01 the road, and his forehead was slightly cut. The breaksman went on a little fur her bef >re jumping off, and escaped uninjured ; but the truck, after travelling with tremendo s velocity for some distance down the incline, went off the rails, and was dashed to pieces, the wheels and axles were also broken. Singular to say, this is the second narrow escape the same breaksman has experienced. On a former occasion, by a similar accident, he sustained a fracture of the arm. This time, however, his increased ex perience saved him from further injury, by showing him the utter futility of remaining on the truck afcer he had lost control of it.— Thames Evening Mail.

In Lexington, Ky., while tho Synod was trying the Rev. Mr. Henry for having married the sister of his deceased wife, and Fatber C. was making an able speech against him ; and, in the midst of his argument, the offending brother appealed to him to answer if he had not himself, in Shelby County, uniied in marriage a couple within the prohibited de grees which he was now condemning. " Yes," said he, "I did, and I will tell you why : she was an old gal, and I thought it ivas herla=t chance!"

The usual weekly parade of the Auckland Rifle Volunteers was held last evening at the Drill-shed, Princes-street. There was a capital attendance, there b ing about a hundred and thirty men present, including a large number of officers. At tbe conclusion of the drill the force had a march out, headed by the band. The route taken was along Symonds-street, Karangahape Road, as far as the toll bar, and back again to the Drill-shed, where Captain Derrom, the officer in com mand, thanked the men for their good atten dance, and for their orderly conduct though out the march. They were then dismissed.

THE CALIFORNIAN MAIL.

The s.s. Wonga Wonga, with the English mails via San Francisco, is clue (according to contract time) to-morrow. This will allow 16 days for the passage each way, and 24 hours detention at Honolulu.

Charge op Embezzlement. —The charge of embezzlement against Francis Harris, late Sub-Treasurer of the Nelson Province, was partly heard on the 2nd instant. The infor mation set forth that the said Francis Harris did, within the period of six m-nths, last past, being then in the service of Oswell Curtis, Superintendent of the Province of Nelson, feloniously steal, take, and carry away the sum of £1231 3s. 2d., the moneys of the said Oswald Curtis, his mister.

The "Salisbury Open" Goldfield.

FORTY-TWO OUNCE 3 OF GOLD TO ONE MAN IN FIVE WEEKS.

In a late issue we gave a short account of a miner having brought in some gold from the neighbourhood of the Karamea after five weeks' work there. Since that was printed Mr. O'Brien, the miner in question, has fur nished us with further particulars, and from his account we form an opinion that the ap proaching summer will 3ee the development of a goldQeld of very promising aspect, with room for hundreds of men within a com paratively short distance on the western side of Nelson. Seven weeks ago Mr. O'Brien left Harding's store, on the Motueka river, with a swag of flour, bacon, &c, up wards of seventy pounds weight, directing his course for Salisbury's Open. He had procured some slight information of the place, and having been shown some gold from there, the appearance of which led him to infer that, very payable ground existed, he determined alono to make the journey and see for him self. The imperfectly defined track was very arduous travelling, through the hills and spurs which had to be surmounted, and in consequence of the snow which had to be passed through knee deep, on an uncertain track, and in which, in some cases, he would break through und sink in up to his armpits. The ground he worked is on the plain situated about ten miles on this side of the Karemea Bend, that ten miles nearer to Nelson, and he reached it after a day and a half's very difficult tramp from the place he started from. During his work here, by himself, and unconnected with any party, he w-.shed out forty-two ounces of gold; but the provisions he started with getting short, he was forced to commence his return journey, which was still more difficult and painful to him than the former, plunging through the snow having skinned his feet and legs, and reduced him to a

semi-crippled condition, having had to pass through at least nine miles of snow that co vered the track from the Open down to Flowers' Creek. Mr. O. Brien has been in several of the New Zeuland gold districts, and he says that he never saw better prospects generally for the miner, or the probability of more favorable ground, and ho firmly believes it will be found to be gold-bearing from Flower's Creek to Salisbury's Open, and possibly as far as up to the Bend. He urges the necessity for the Government to make a track, which will avoid the difficulties of Horsehoe Hill and Mount Arthur by taking it further towards Takaka way, which he be lieves to be perfectly practicable. Mr. O'Brien particularly urges those who are in clined to visit this ground not to do so at the present season, as it would be perfectly useless and ill-advised to think of trying this road for at least two months to come. After that time the snow will most probably have dis appeared sufficiently to allow the prospecting and. working of the ground to go on with some chance of success.— Nelson Colonist.

SUPREME COURT.—Criminal Sittings.

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 9.

[Before his Honor Sir G. A. Arney, Knight,

and common juries.] His Honor took his scat on the Bench at 10 o'clock.

MANSLAUGHTER,

Thomas Johnson was arraigned upon an in dictment, charging him with having killed George Wallace on the Bth of July last, at Grahamstown.

Mr. Brookfield prosecuted for the Crown

Mr. Rees defended the prisoner

William Read said that Wallace, the man now deceased, lived with him, and was sleep ing in his house in Davy-street on the night named in the indictment. The prisoner came there complaining that M rs. Read had let his dogs out. Mrs. Read was from home at the time. Prisoner got into a great pr.ssion. Witness begged him to be quiet, as there was a man asleep who had to go to work at twelve o'clock. Wallace was aroused by the noise, and called out " What is that noise about ?" The prisoner said, " Who the are you ?" Wallace went out to meet the prisoner. They grappled with each other, struggled for a time, and Wallace was thrown. Prisoner gave Wallace two or three heavy kicks. Witness told the prisoner he was a scoundrel for kicking the man on the ground. Wallace was carried into the house and laid on the sofa. He was sensible, but his legs were quite powerless—they fell like a piece of lead. Witness sent for Dr. Crusoe. Next day Wallace was taken to the hospital, where he died.

In cross-examination, the witness denied ever saying that he thought Johnson had kicked Wallace on the ground, but he was not certain. .Witness adhered to his statement that Johnson kicked Wallace sevei-jl times. He could not say how many times, in con sequence of the interference of Johnson's wife.

CORRESPONDENCE.

We a not responsible for our Correspondents opinions. To the Editor of the Evening Star. Sib, —The Son • -m Cross of this morning assumes that the Emperor Napoleon is alone in the wrong in the war with the Prussian King, together with Count Bismarck, and that he has commenced it on a shallow pre text. This is all very well as far as Napoleon is concerned, but one must remember that Prussia still less deserves English sympathies than France. The present war is a direct result of the iniquitous spoliation of Denmark six years ago. There was a " shallow pre text," if one likes. The Holsteiners wished for individual independence, and they were rewarded by being absorbed into the most despotical Government ia Europe, except Russia. If the editor 6f the Southern Cross is a Briton, I only wish that he had been in Germany at the time of the " Macdonald" affair, and more particu larly at the time of the Danish war—as I was —and heard and read the insults and sneers directed against the English, with which every farthing paper in the land was teeming, be cause the English papers mostly took the side of Denmark. These German papers at the same time were praising Napoleon, because, from motives of policy, he stood aloof from England. In so far as Napoleon deserved that praise, so far is he rightly served now. As for Prussia, I hope she will find, like-Aus tria did—though later in receiving the lesson than she —that whoever " sows the wind will reap the whirlwind." I hope, also, that the result of the war will be that Germany will acquire true freedom and true unity, in place of tbe sham of it which she enjoys in shape of the military despotism under King William and Count Bismarck, and that Denmark will have her just rights restored. —I am, &c, An English Sympathises with Denmabk.
