The Evening Star. THURSDAY, DECEMBER 8, 1870.

We are glad to see that the Povineial Coun cil haVeVefioghised the clitinw of the Mecha nics' Institute to a share of the public funds, and that, on the motion of Mr. P. AvThillifs. addresses have;been carried asking tlic Surer intendent to place a hundred pounds on the estimates for each of tlie two institutions, Auckland and the Thames. An entertainment of a very interesting character will be given this evening, at the Music Hall, in connection with Sfc. Sepul chre's. It consists of two parts ; the first being made up of songs, duets, glees, &c, and the second being entitled " Bob Sawyer's Supper Party, and how it ended." From the success tliat always attends the efforts of thosp engaged in getting up this entertainment we have no doubt it will be a great success. A parade of the Auckland Rifle Volunteers will take place this evening at. half-past sis o'clock. We understand it will be an open air drill if the members show up punctually. Ifc is time the Volunteers took advantago of these beautiful nights for their drill, instead of being constantly in their drill-shed. Another - hint we should like to throw out respecting the band, that.is its always being under the roof of the drill-shed instead of discoursing sweet music outside. We really think that the public ought to have an opportunity. at*, hearing what the. band.. can do. ■■ _ .' !r , j ;'.,. .aj. ,a. .. ~[(j A wedding of, a highly* novel/character is thus noticed'in the Now York Trilmnem qi 4th j / August:—"The great, hymeneal celebration which conrorted Miss Butler into Mrs. Gene ral Ames, has been quite thrown into the shade by a wedding winch was celebrated in | the Mammoth Cave of Kentucky a few days since. , The happy couple were .Miss Lena i Orenduff, of Breckerridge, and Mr. .jD.ljai-los 12.

The.twain were made one after being, reminded by the parson thpt ' though in the caverns of the earth, Were f till in the sight of Almighty God.'"

ARRIVAL OF THE 'GALATEA,' WITH HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS PRINCE ALFRED.

Though the arrival' of the Galatea in harbour this morning ha\s not been at tended with the excitement consequent on her first appearance in our waters, it will afford gratification to all our citizens to see that magnificent vessel once more lying; at anchor in the Waitemata, and to welcome to our city, though quietly, yet none the less cordially, her Koyal com mander. The Galatea, Captain H.E.H. the Duke of Edinburgh, arrived at five o'clock this morning, and brought up off Fort Britomart, outside the ship Aboulrir. She left Sydney on the. 16th November, encountering a heavy gale for two cUys after leaving. There was no dam age done, save in the loss of a few sails. During most of the pas sage to New Caledonia, she was under sail, and arrived at Noumea on the 26th ultimo, leaving the following day. Hav ing fine weather across, she made land last night, and arrived in harbour this morning as above. The officers on board are nearly all the same as when the Galatea was here before, the following only having left her and gone home : — Sub-Liutenants Halifax, Eyres, Manner ing, and iFelles ; also Mr. Gray, engi neer, Mr. Turner being in his place. The entry into our waters was made this morning, without any demonstration either on shore or aboard, and His iJoyal Highness quietly landed at nine o'clock, and proceeded to Government House, returning to his ship at eleven. As his visit this time is of a private character, and only in the capacity of cap tain of the Galatea, there will not, of course, be those festivities and demonstra tions that marled the first advent of a prince of the blood to these islands. But as his stay will be continued for a month from to-day, there cannot be a doubt that our citizens will find opportunity, for showing that genuine affection which is felt throughout all the dependencies of Hngland for every scion ot our Royal house. In a few days, as we understand, the Galatea will be thrown open to visitors, when doubtless thousands of our citizens will throng to see the beauty and methodical arrangement of everything on board this model of symmetry in naval architecture. Not the least curious of the sights aboard is the tame elephant, which has become domesticated, and quite a pet among the men.. The animal is really a beautiful specimen of his kind, and though his presence on board a fighting ship seems rather an incongruous thing, he seems to fell quite as much at home as in his native Cingalese jungles. After staying a month at Auckland the Galatea, with her Royal commander, will leave for the Falkland Islands.

THE SHIP TIMARU.

A ship, supposed to be theTimaru from Lon dbn.has been signalled during the morning out- Bide Tiritiri. As there is .but little wind, the vrsgel will scarcely reach the harbour this evening. The Tiinaru is 108 days out, and brings a number of passengers.

AUCKLAND REGATTA.

Thk committee of the Auckland Regatta met at the Club-room, Thames hotel, last evening —:G. Yon der Heyde, Esq., in the chair. The minutes of the previous meeting having been read -and confirmed, the secretary, Mr. M." Niccol, stated that he had received answers from his Excellency the Governor, and his Honor the Superintendent, accepting the offices of patron and vice-patron of the Club for the ensuing year. The name of Mr. Fletcher was added to the list of committeel men in the place of Mr. Chnmberlnin, re signed. Messis. Fletcher, Copland, and Captain Williams, were elected to draw up a programme, to be submitted at the next meet ing, and Captain Clayton was elected umpire, and Mr. Copland starter. The next meeting of the committee will be held on Tuesday evening ni'xt.

Highway Robbeey.—The jury which had been locked up all night in the case of Chas. Harris, tried yesterday, returned into Court. The foreman said they had been unable to coma, to a verdict.—They were discharged.— Mr. Brookfield asked that the prisoner might be detained ;i3 it was proposed to try Mm again i'or another offence. —The prisoner was accordingly remanded till Monday. EoBUKiiY IK A Stohe. —; John Coffee, described as a French polisher, was arraigned upon an indictment charging him with stealing from the store of Messrs. Samuel Cochrune, on the 24th of October, 40Clbs. of tobacco.—-Mr. Joy defended the prisoner.— The particulars of this case have already been published at preat length. Prisoner is said tobs respectably connected. Mr. Bushell, storeman, described the mauner'in winch he found the store.tho morning after tberobbery. He had secured the store the evening before. The doors inside were aj^ir; the iron bar which goe3 across them was standing up agaiust the wall. The prisoner had been occasionally employed by Coehrane & Son to polish furniture. The two cases of tobacco produced were in the elore the night before the robbery.—Detective James Murphy de posed, thut on the night in question he saw two'weli-known bad characters going in the direction of the store, and he followed them. He pushed the door of Cochrane's store. There appeared to be pome resistance behind it, He pushed it open and found the prisoner crouched behind tlio door. Prisoner said "It is my first offence, Mr. Murphy, and you have caught me." He said that two men were to have come for the tobacco.—This witness was cross-examined at great length with a Tiew to ascertain whether the detective officer had held out any inducement to the prisoner to acknowledge his guilt, but it amounted simply to this : the prisoner said, when discovered, "It is all up with me." The detective said the next thing to being innocent is to make atonement by giving the names of the parties who put prisoner up to the robbery. The witness told prisoner he had seen two men outside, and he knew what they were there for. The prisoner said he had been locked in the cellar.—Constable Carriga'n gave similar evidence. —Both the last witnesses said they never knew anything against the prisoner's character. —This concluded the evidence on behalf of the prosecution. —Mr, Joy, said he wonld call witnesses to character. —Mr. Halla day, furniture manufacturer, "said he knew the prisoner for several years. Prisoner had been for a long period in his service, and believed him always honest and trustworthy.— By Mr. Brookfield : Witness said the prisoner ancl his father was in his employment. Pri soner had not worked for him for- five years. Had not heard a great deal abont prisoner for the last five years. —William Robert Hay ward, upholsterer, gave the prisoner a good character. Prisoner had been in witness's employment off and on for the last two years and-ahalf. Witness always believed him to be honest. —Samuel Charles Smith, general dealer, knew the prisoner for the last five years. Prisoner was in witness's einploy mentoff and on up to last Saturday. Believed the prisoner was honeat. Was not aware whether his bail rendered him! Heard some thing of prisoner being taken into custody.

WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 7.

The Speaker took the chair at three o clock. Present —The Provincial Secretary, the Pro vincial Solicitor, the Gtoldfields Secretary, and W. J. Hurst (Executive) ; Messrs. Taylor, Douglas, Lundon, McLeod (J.), Sam, Freer, Swauson, Cadman, Kerr, Philips, Beyburn, Gordon, Creighton, Hill, Ellis, Stratford, and Boylan. GAOXER POSTEB. Dr. Sam brought up the final report of the Foster Petition Committee. The Committee consider that Sub-Inspector Bullen ex ceeded his authority, but allowed that some exercise of authority ' was ne cessary in the interest of ' discipline.' The management and general efficiency are equal to what they /were in- -the former years. There is an increase of force, but there does not appear to' be any increase of crime to j call for this increase. The police are paid direct from Wellington; the men are not in any way under the control of the Superin tendent, but under the sole command of Mr. Commisbioner Brannigan. Dr. Sam moved, " That the report be considered on Friday next."

The Goldfields Seceetaby. laid on the table the interim report of the Goldfields Discovery Reward Committee, "who f had agreed to a resolution that the reward was apportionable to those who had discovered gold which led to the, opening of the gold field, and that the claims of Walter William son and Smallman had not been duly consideredt

Dr. Nicholson hoped the minutes of evi dence would be laid on the table.

DISQTTLIEICATION,

Mr. Swajtsox moved, '' That in the opinion of this Council it is expedient that provision should be made by law to make vacant the seat in this Council of any member thereof other than a member of the Executive, who shall, while he holds a seat therein, accept any office of emolument or any contract under the Provincial Government, or under any Board constituted by an Act of this Council of which the Superintendent or any member of his Executive Council shall ba ex officio a' mem ber."

Dr. Nicholson said the effect of the resolu tion -would ■be that an incoming Executive must go to the country, to be elected. The resolution, moreover) would only touch Boards at present in existence, but not Boards which would afterwards be created.

After a few words from Mr. Ellis,, which did not reach the gallery,

Mr. Cabman said if the effect of the resolu tion -would be such, as the hon. member (Dr. NiekolSon) stated he would, rejoice. He thought it only just and right that members taking office should be sent to their *con stituents. > . , .•

Mr. McLeod thought it perfectly right; that members should be precluded from tak ing contracts. ■ . . . :..,'.;;. o , ,

Mr. Philips asked what would be the effect in case of the Harbour Board. It'Waa quite possible that a member of the Council would be a member of that Board. •■ ■ -.viJ;

Mir. Sheehan said the resolution applied I nob to members of the Bourd,- but to members I taking offices or contracts under the ILtrbdu'r^ or other Boards. If the Government could j gather the clear opinion of the Council, and' I could see their way, they would bring down! an Act. f

■'^.Captain Frekr said the object of the mister was to put an end to all kinds of 'jobneVy. ■■",' MrOi MlTonELii thought at first it extended onljvtp those who received salaries or money frofiiithe province, but even if the motion went as far as implied by the hon. member (i^r. Nicholson) he would still vote for it. iV^Mr. Swanson hoped,the spirit of the reso lution would be accepted and embodied in an Act.—The motion was agreed to.

THE WAR.

' Convents, public schools, the offices of large companies, maisons, and even the place of meeting of the former Senats, and the Privy Council, have been turned into temporary hospitals. Bazaiue is said to have;shot two of his captains, without the... ceremony of court martial, for refusing to obey orders* Prussia ,is prepared for a prolonged campaign, 100,000 ims being ordered for th*e army. The staff for besieging Paris has been appointed. It includes Colonel Bief, president of the Artillery Examination Boardß. * A number of chemists have been .sent to France! to disinfect systematically hospitals and battlefields. ... . ~

Among the material taken at Sedan were 10,000 .Chassepats and 80,000 cwt. of powder. French officers who are prisoners may live in one of twenty-one given cities^—Breslau, Bonn, Wiesbaden, Dtisseldorf, or Deutz— according to choice. They are to receive lodgings and pay as at home. Prussia is preparing for all contingencies. All the Landwehr officers are asked whether they would wish to enter the standing army. On September 14.a French officer was .shot for attempting flight. When the news of the., capture of Sedan arrived at Stockholm, the King's theatres were ordered to be closed for that evening. At Kamur a ' plot has been discovered amongst the French population Against the Prussian authorities, having for its object the seizure of the French guns and mitrailleuses captured on September 1 at Sedan, and not yet forwarded to Prussia. The town is declared in a state of siege. The gates are closed, and a search has been made, resulting in the discovery of 2,000 stand of arms. Reports of an equally serious nature are arriving from other towns and from the country, where it is said the peasants are rising and arming themselves. The Crown Prince has issued an eloquent proclamation to the German people to create a national fund for invalids.

There are no postage-stamps to be obtained: in Paris, since the Government refuse to issue any more bearing the Emperor's head. - A Prussian spy, was recently arrested at Porte-Maillot, near the fortifications, of which he was taking a' correct note, while he pre tended to be selling a cheap popular "Life of the Brave Gteneral Ulrich, the Defender of. Strasburg." He was giving change, when, by* inadvertence, he „ took out two gold 20 fr. pieces, which excited suspicion, and be was arrested. The Mobiles arrested_another spy, wearing female attire.

THE BOMBARDMENT OF BITSCHE.

' The siege of Bitsche was, taken in hand in the middle of August. On the 24th four 60-pounder mortars and five batteries of four 12-pounder breech-loaders each, commenced bombarding, the : fortress. On .the 4th of September there' was" a sortie ag~airist the besiegers, who consist of the"4th"Wurtemb<rg and two battalions of the Bth* Bavarian. The sortie iwas repeated;briithe 11th and 29th, in the direction of Freudenberg and Saspelsheidt. These attempts were . completely* repulsed, with small loss to either side. From the 11th to the 20th there was a severe-bombardment, which, dismounted several.cannon, destroyed about 120 houses and the caitle on,the fort. After firing 20,000 shot the besieging batteries became disabled, and .were removed' to Germersheil. The Wurtembergers were also withdrawn, the Bavarians being left for. the purpose of observing. On Friday, Saturday, and Monday, Sept. 30 and Oct. 1 and 2,' the garrisons made sorties, with cavalry and infantry protected, by tcannon, and destroyed batteries and farms.where the besiegew' out posts lay. The fort is a perpendicular rock, like Gibraltar,'2oo feet high, casemated, and nearly impregnable. The garrison consists of 2,000, men. The peasantry speak ' German, but there, is an intensely French sentiment amongst them.- - >»
