i The penalty imposed on (lie owner and | master of the ketch ' Enterprise ' has startled many with its severity, and has created no small amount of sympathy with the sufferers. That the melancholy foundering of the ' Tuuranga' resulted from the breach of la.v for which they are j now punished is generally admitted ; and yet it seems a hard case, that owing to this accident they should be the scape goats for hundreds of similar offenders, against a ]rw hitherto regarded as a dead letter. Nothing will ever clear from a share ia the blame the authorities who have wilfully closed their eyes to the of fence, till the public was awe-stricken by the fearful catastrophe. Hundreds of small craft have for years been going in and out of our harbour, and crawling along our coasts, without any attempt hating been ever made by those charged with sue",, things to enquire if they had any lights, or any means of giving warn ing at night of their dangerous presence to approaching steamers. So little has this important matter been noticed that one of our principal merchants—himself the owner of vessels for many years—was positively unaware of such a rule being in existence. It is true it is the business , of every citizen to make himself acquainted with the Jaws of his country ; but surely, in a matter of such moment, as affecting the lives of all going on the sea, some means might have been taken to impress the necessity for proper lights, on the minds of those concerned. And surely they are culpable who, closing their eyes, to the offence, by impunity conveyed the r impression that such a regulation was non-existent, or if in existence, that it had grown obsolete, and its provisions would never be enforced. Hush it as we may, there is a profound conviction that there are others more responsible for this sad disaster than Mr. Hadfield and Cap tain Millis. It is impossible not to fee] pity for Mr. Hadfielcl losing his little all, and immured in prison walls; but it is equally impossible to feel that this is not a righteous judgment. A coal barge driving through the waters unseen is a moving reef. Against rocks and shoals, laid down on the chart, a steamer c;m guard ; but how provide against this un seen battering ram, carrying death with out a moment's warning into any thing that may cvoss ita path. It is due to public safety that the dangerous practice should be put down by the strong arm of the law, and if at any time, no occasion is so fitting as when public attention is awaked ani awestricken by one of the most terrible results of such neglect. The decision of the Bench is not to be attri buted to undue feeling for the loss of the ' Tauranga,' but to the reasonable demands of justice, and the claims of public safety ; and much as we pity Mr. Hadfield and Capt. Millis, we believe that public safety will benefit from the penalty which they are called to endure. But viewed in an other light the offence has a very serious aspect. It is true the offenders were not guilty of wilfully and deliberately killing the passengers and crew of the ' Tauranga,' but they wilfully did that illegal act which resulted in their death, if a man present a firearm at another, he may not intend evil, he may not even know that the in strument was loaded ; but he has done an illegal act, and if it result in the death of the other, the offender is guilty of man slaughter. And if the owner and master of the ' Enterprise' did an illegal act, and by the doin;* of it, caused however unin tentionally, the death of those on board the ' Tauranga,' the offence must be looked on as one that meet 3 not excess of punish ment in a brief imprisonment. Far be it from us to throw a sione at the fallen, or to say one word unkind of the suffering, and we should sincerely rejoice in the circumstances to learn that means had been taken to relieve the pressure of the penalty; but none the less do we assert that the decision of the Bench was lenient. It is to be hoped the lesson will be laid to heart. We hear there is a regular rush for ships' lamps ; and we trust that for all time to come, those whose business it is to see that vessels are provided with , lights before leaving the harbour will I remember the fate of the ' Taurangp,' the result of their carelessness. The memory of thit sad scene should hang like a cloud over the Custom-house; and the last shriek of despair that rung from the ill fated steamer as she plunged beneath the waves should be heard as a dying protest against official neglect.

The meeting to-day at the Mechanics' Institute, though perhaps called from groundless alarms, will be productive of godd. Mr. Philips is undoubtedly right m saying that it never was the intention of the Ministry to introduce the action of

differential duties to the destruction of our local manufactures. It would be such an act of insanity, after Victoria has made herself a most successful manufac turing country by a protective tariff, for New Zealand, without a manufacture or in dustry developed, to fling her ports open to Australian goods alone, for the special benefit of Australians and ruin of ourselves, that no politician would have the audacity to propose it. It is clear that the intention is to enable the Govern ment to find a market for our beer, by admitting the Australian wines duty five, on condition of our beer being received on similar terms in Australia. At the same time the meeting will be productive of good, for it has shown that our princi pal business men and citizens, as *,here represented, are thoroughly protectionist in their views. And it was fortunate, too, that the test was applied by the tomfoolery of the man Eastwood. This person is evidently unacquainted with the subject, and tbe manner.in which he screamed out his platitudes about the " poor man," who, of all, needs a protec tive policy, showed that he would do much to win the crown of political mar tyrdom. We rejoice in the result of the meeting, and to find that Auckland people are so pronounced on a fiscal policy that is tbe salvation of a young colony.

It is idle to try to draw attention to the magazine in, the Albert Barracks. It is only disaster that will ensure further safety. We should never have had our small coasters carrying lights but for some ■mch warning as the foundering of the Tauranga. And in all probability we shall have tons of gunpowder in the midst of the city till the city is shattered to pieces. Hundreds of citizens may be blown into eternity, and then ifc will be felt proper to blieh ive magazine elsewhere. Butwill there be blood on nobody's head? Nobody re sponsible for murdered and mangled fathers and mothers and children of Auck land? Nobody against whom popular indignation and vengeance xvill turn ? It is interesting, and it may be instruc tive to know that in Melbourne a standing reward is offered for the conviction of any master of a vessel found sailing without the prescribed and proper lights. Would it be too much to expect that we should learn a lesson from our neighbours ? or shall we allow the present spasmodic movement relating to ships' lights to ex haust itself, and ourselves to go again to slumber till another foundered ship arouses public indignation ? From a private letter received by a gen tleman here, we learn that Miss Anna Forde, the Australian nightingale, Miss Cassy Matthews, and Miss Jenny Nye, are now likely to leave Lyttelton for Auck land per s.s. Taranaki, which may be ex pected here in the early part of next week. We hear that Mr. Joseph Eayner will take his first and farewell benefit in Auckland on Friday evening next, at the Prince of Wales Theatre. 'I he fine play of " Pizarro" will be produced, and we trust to see Mr. Knyner's sterling abilities appreciated by a crowded house. THESE was another very good iittend ance at the Glassblowers' exhibition last night, in the new City Hall. A large number of presents aiv freely given to the visitors every evening, and with Madame Winter at the piano, a very enjoyable evening can now bo spent at the City Hall.

Being the second meeting, and no creditors appearing to prove their claims, the estate fell into the hands of the Provisional Trustee. In the estate of Daniel Grove, second meeting, J. Mowbray became trustee, and Messrs. F. Scherff and Beveridge were appointed- super visors. The treasurers of the Tauranga Relief Fund request all persons holding moneys and lists to forward the same not later than Friday morning.

THE RECIPROCITY BILL.

PUBLIC MEETING AT THE MECHANICS' INSTITUTE.

THIS DAY.

A public meeting of citizens convened by advertisement, was held this day, at noon, in the hall of the Mechanics' Institute, for the purpose of considering the Keciprocity Bill, now submitted to the Assembly. There was a, fair attendance considering the unsuit able hour selected. Mr. E. Isaacs occupied the chair, and commenced by reading the adver tisement and stating the objects of the meet ing. Mr. J. McCosn CiAHK moved the first resolution--" That this meeting viewa with alarm the bill now before the House of Kepre sentatives, entitled the Colonial Reciprocity Act which provides that the G-overnor-in Council may from time to time declare that any article whatever, when of the growth, produce, or the manufacture of the Australian colonies, or of one or more of them, is or is not admissable into New Zealand free from duties of Customs, fearing that under such and under the head manufactures, a treaty may be entered into injurious to the trade, and disastro as to the mn n ufactures of New Zealand." The speaker held that alarm was not raised too soon regarding the Bill, as when passed into law an expression of opinion on _ its action would be too late. If in its provisions manufactures were admitted into the colony from the neighr-ouring colonies, duty free, by a treaty of reciprocity, the result would be disastrous to local manufacturers. He showe d how, with the present duty, our woollen manufacturers had been able to hold their own, but that by the removal of this duty by reci procity, Melbourne, with its perfect machinery, would compete and beat us in our own markets.

The resolution was briefly seconded by Mr.W. Atiken, when Mr. Eastwood made a speech in opposition, in which the " hardworking man," " corruption," ipsy dixies, " burthens of people," &c, were heard above the din raised by the meeting—''shut-up," " that will do," " cut it short," " dry up," "what about the Literary Society" and " Kentish fire," —to repress his eloquence. The resolution was supported by Mr. Catee, who stated that he paid £40 per week in wages for labour which would be at once brought to a close by the removal of the duty by reciprocity.

Mr. D. GiiAHAJr in supporting the resolu tion was strongly protectionist in his argu ments.

Mr. Freer ako spoke in support of the re solution, which on being put to the meeting, was carried almost unanimously.

The second resolution was proposed by Mr. VV. Rattray, who showed how disastrous it would be to those employed in our manufac tures if Australian goods were admitted free by reciprocity. 'I he resolution read as follows : " That considerable progress has been made in New Zealand during the last few years in several branches of manufactures, amongst which may be mentionrd shirts and clothing, boots and shoes, saddlery and harness, soap and candles, carriages, furniture and tweed, and this meeting is of opinion that for some time to come those manufactures require at least that measure of protection which the pre sent, tariff affords, and believes that if such is withdrawn the result will be that the manu factures already in existence will be crippled, and some of them crushed, and that the establishment of new and similar industries will be prevented." The resolution was seconded by Mr. Tones, and oppo.-ed as before by Mr. Eastwood, and carried with three dissentients. Mr. Philips moved the third resolution, and supported it by a sensible speech, showing that apparently there was no intention on the part of the Ministry to do that which was feared by the promoters of the meeting, viz., the admission of general manufactured goods from Australia, but simply such exchanges as their wines for our beera. The re solution is was follows : —" That as the manufactures existing, or likely soon to be established in the Australian colo nies, are precisely those manufactures which arc carried on successfully, or could be established in New Zealand with the best prospects of success, it is the opinion of this meeting that tho interests of New Zealand are better promoted by encouraging such manufactures in New Zealand, than by sub jecting them to a competition which, at present, would be very unequal, and against which some of them would be unable to stand."

This teas seconded by Mr. Winks, and carried, with two dissentients.

The fourth resolution was moved by Mr. LtrsK and seconded by Mr. Cater, and carried. It read as follows : —" That, in the opinion of this meeting, the operation of the Act should be confined to articles the growth and produce of the Australian colonies, and even then to those articles only which are not and cannot be produced, in New Zealand."

On the motion of Mr. Shera, seconded by Mr. G. Lewis, the following resolution was passed;—" That copies of this resoluiion be sent to the Governor and the Superintendent of Auckland."

This resolution, to the same effect, was also carried on the motion of Mr. S. Vaile, se conded by Mr. Hampton : —" That a petition be presented to the Governor-in-Council praying that no duties may be remitted on articles of Australian manufacture except only such as are not or cannot at present be manufactured in New Zealand."

The meeting throughout was very decided in favour of the principle of the resolutions, and would have been a tame affair but for the interruptions of the man Eastwood, whose love of notoriety seems pretty strong. A vote of thanks to the Chairman closed the pro ceedings.

A sermon was preached on Sunday evening last, by the Eev. W. Davies, M.A., in the Albert-street Congregational Church, in reference to the late serious calamity of the s.s. Tauranga, when the collection for the evening—amounting to £19 4s—was made for the widows and orphans left destitute by this calamity. .Notice is given by the Chairman of the City Board, in reference to the re moval of dust from private premises by the carts of the Board.

A call of one shilling per scrip has been made in the (Sylvia Company, and a call of ten shillings per share has been made in the Tookey Quartz Mining Company.

This evidence was corroborated by J. Dean, residing next door, who stated that his family were unable to reside in the lower part of his house in consequence. Defendant was fined £1 and costs, or to be imprisoned 7 days. THREATENING- LANGUAGE. A charge against James Q-rant of having used threatening language to Eliza Smith was withdrawn. The Court then rose.
