The Evening Star. TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1870.

The purposes to which the reserve of the Albert Barracks may be finally applied will give grounds for a good deal of strife, and it will require the utmost faithfulness on the part of those entrusted with the charge of the interests of the people to carefully guard the reserve from intrusion. An application has been made by the Trustees of the Auckland Grammar School, to have a portion allotted Co that institution, with the buildings thereon, for Grammar School purposes There can be no doubt that no more deserving and appropriate claim could be made for a section of the ground. The institution is one of common advantage. Its situation should be central, and the locality should be one, from its salubrity, conducive to the health of our youthful citi zens when engaged in the prosecu tion of their studies. All these con ditions are to a high degree satisfied in the Albert Barracks' reserve. And if it were resolved that those grounds should be cut up for various useful purposes, we should strongly recom mend that a goodly section should be given to the Auckland Grammar School. But if this claim is admitted, the door is open to any number of other applications, and the intention of converting this reserve into a public park may as well at once be aban doned. As this is the first application of the kind it should be carefully con sidered, not only in itself but in its consequences; and we trust that by those interested in the matter, and whose opinions will be taken into con sideration as to the final disposal of the reserve, a distinct and unequivocal determination will be expressed that no application of any kind having for its object the appropriation of any portion of the reserve to any other purpose than that of a public park will for a moment be entertained.

While attention is being directed to the removal of ihe offensive nuisance arising from the Queen-street sewer, it is to be re gretted that no consideration seems given totbepossibility of disinfecting the sewage and utilizing the deposit. We observe that the proposal has been made to the City Board ; but on the principle of omne ignotum ierribilc est, we presume that the proposal was too scientific in its aspect, and so dropped without receiving any consideration. There cannot be a doubt that this would be the only satisfactory means for the removal of the nuisance, and a total misapprehension exists as to the costliness of the appliances necessary for the purpose. The sewage may, as at present proposed, be carried out into deep water, but this is only a temporary alle viation of the evil ; for a large propor tion of the deposit will be ejected again on the beach, and the evil will be reproduced. The mechanism and chemicals necessary for turning the foetid sewage into limpid water, and fertilising compost, can be pro vided at a smaller cost than any effective means for carrying the stuff into the stream, and once completed, from the exceeding richness of the de out tl c works will be self-supporting. "We would recommend that previous to the under taking of any extensive means for the removal of the nuisance an estimate could bo obtained of the cost of this the only effective method of suppression.

It is with great satisfaction that we draw atlention to the telegraphic intelligence pub lished in another column. It will be seen that the star of Coromandel is evidently in the ascendant, and there are growing indica tions that the gold field will soon cause no in considerable excitement in mining circles.

On Thursday next an amateur performance will be given at the Prince of Wales Theatre, under distinguished patronage, in aid of the funds of the Auckland Rowing Club..

The transfer books of the Long Drive Gold Mining Company will be closed until noon to-morrow, when a dividend of £1 per share will be payable.

On Monday evening next, there will be a musical and literary entertainment, in the Catholic Institute, in aid of the funds.

Notice is given to shareholders of the Inverne.-s Gold Mining Company in arrears of theircalls that notici of forfeiture will bo given unless the calls are paid up forthwith.

An old lady receiving a letter she supposed was from one of her absent sons, requested a neighbor to read it. He acfordingly began to read i--" Dear mother," then pausing, as the writing was rather illegible. " It's from Johnny," exclaimed the old lady j he always stuttered." j

POLICE COURT —TUESDAY.

(Before J. O'Neill and E. Isaacs, Esqs., Justices.)

Breach op Distillation Act. —James Freiers and Irvine Armstrong were brought up, charged with a breach of the Distillation Act, 186S, clause 111, by having in their possession a still for distilling spirits, without having a license for using the same. Mr. Brock appeared for the prisoners, and asked for a remand till Thursday next, which was granted, bail being allowed, the prisoners on their own securities of £300 each, and two sureties of £150 each. Drunkenness.—Edwin Leathart, Joseph ; iiarper, and Robert Condrosswere each fined in the usual manner for this offence. Obtaining Goods Under False Pre tences, —John James Jackson was charged by Silvester Percy with having obtained from him goods to the value of 275. Silves ter Percy, sworn, stated that the prisoner came to his house, the Court-house Hotel, Grahamstown, on the 19th October, and re presented himself to be a partner with Mr. I)undas, of the United States Dining Rooms, and it was on this representation that I trusted him. On his leaving, he gave me an order on Mr. Dundas for the amount due to me. This order was afterwards dishonored. — Chirles Dundas was next called, and stated, I had no partners in my business in October last. The prisoner was in my employment as cook. He left about the 17th October.— (The Court here adjourned for a quarter of an hour.) —Mr. Dundas recalled and exam ined by Mr. Hesketh (who appeared for the prisoner) : I had no reason whatever to com plain of his honesty. If I could have seen the man at the time the order was presented I would have paid it for him.—This concluded the ease, and the Bench sentenced the prisoner to one month's imprisonment with hard labor.

The Little Wonder, at Coromandel, has completed the crushing of 35 tons, with the magnificent return of 406 ounces, exclusive of specimens which were put through last week. The total amount of gold obtained from the 85 tons crushed is 1560 ounces, one of the best returns ever known at the Thames. The Queen of Tiki has obtained 76 ounces from 45 tons of stone. The Royal Oak have declared a divi dend of £190 per share. The Harbour View will give a divi dend of £L 6on Saturday. The GTolden Belt crushing is going on, and looks well for a rich return. The Swedish Crown expect 150 ozs. from ten tons now going through. The Little and G-ood took out over 100 pounds weight of specimens last week. Very rich gold was struck in a reef at Upper Tararu, last evening, and du ring the morning twenty pouuds weight of specimens have been taken out. Point Russell. —104 ounces from 80 tons. Just in Time.—ll3 ounces from 71 tons. The Native Beach Claims have to go before the Supreme Court.

The Japanese Government, to prove its sympathy with the sufferers by the outrages in China, has (according to the Shanghai Courier) offered an immediate supply of armed troops to the Foreign Ministers to dis patch to China, pending the arrival of foreign troops, which they look upon as inevitable.

On Thursday next, the Blanche Minstrels will give a Negro enter'ainment, in the Music Hall, Symonds-strect, under the patronage of Sir George and Lady Powen. The proceeds will be for tho benefit, of the mother of the seaman belonging to the Blanche who lately fell overboard, in this harbour, and was drowned.

EXCITING CHASE AND CAP TURE.

A. race for liberty of a most exciting kind both for spectators and those imme diately engaged in it, occurred to-day from Chaneery^Btreet as the starting post, and after a considerable circuit ending in Chancery-street again, within the cool precincts of the watchhouse. It appears that a coat had been stolen from Mr. Asher's. Information was con veyed to the police that the coat had been sold at Mrs. Bourke's, in Chancery street, this morning, and subsequent in telligence was brought to the station that a man answering the description was selling shirts and trousers at Drummond's, in the same street. Sergeant Jeffrey and Detective Murphy proceeded to Drummond's, and finding the mar_> brought him to Bourke's, where he was at once identified as the man who had sold Asher's coat. This preliminary operation had scarcely been completed, when the man, who is named Carl Wel lams, a Swede, made a bolt through.the back door of Bourke's house, and by a narrow passage into Short land-street, with the two police officers close in pursuit. Away up tohorc land Crescent the hunt rushed fast and furious, when Wellams suddenly wheel ing made for the cliff over Fort and Custom House streets. With a bound between a swoop and a "whommle," the Swede went over the brink, at which the representatives of justice paused, in blank dismay. By aid of hands and knees and other portions of the person, the constables at length reached the world below, to find the fugitive ori the brink of the intake preparing for another plunge. Into the intake bounded the Swede, floundering through the mud, while law once more held back in respect for the new uniform, uunning round to intercept the Swede, Sergeant Jeffrey was discovered by him when emerging on the other side, and once more the tugitive dashed into the tide to make for the side he had left. But there Detective Murphy had secreted himself, and just a3 the man emerged he was caught and instantly handcuffed. But liberty was still sweet, and while being conducted towards the lock-up Wellams made another dash for freedom, and bracelets, and all, he plunged again into the intake. Fortune and the shackles were against him, and he was soon re captured and conveyed to the watchhouse, there to reflect on the thrilling events of the day. He will be brought up at the Police Court to*morrow.

SUPREME COURT.-VICE ADMIRALTY.

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 15

[Before His Honor Sir G. A. 'Arney, Knight, Chief Justice.]

His Honor sat this morning in Vice-Ad mii'alty jurisdiction.

A deduction from the gross amount (£1,167) of £101 Is. 4d. had been made for fees. The question of taxation of costs was re ferred to the Registrar. A sum of £.384* had been ordered to be paid to the salvors and promoters, the balance, £613 9s. 9d., subject to taxation and costs to the defendants, the own ers of the ship and cargo and the defendants. —Mr. Bennett, on behalf of the defendants, moved the Court that it order the payment of £613 9s. 9d. to the defendants' solicitor. The learned counsel read affidavits setting out the above facts in support of his application. His Honor made the order in terms of the application.

Whitaker for the defendant, —The case broke down in consequence of the non-production of certain books. A nonsuit was accepted by Mr. Lusk. The- costs amounted to £15 2s. Same v. Flying- Cloud.—The claim was for work of a similar nature. A nonsuit was abo accepted in this case, as the same diffi culty arose. This was all the business.

THE WAR.

YON MOLTKE ON THE FRENCH ARMY.

An interesting letter appears in the Salut Public of Lyons relative to the instruction which Prussian and French officers are re spectively obliged to possess. The writer says : —" M'Mahon is supposed to have adopted tactics which are not new—namely to act above all with his artillery, said to be formidable, and, to spare his men as much as possible. A'apoleon I, of whohl General de Moltke is only the pupil, never proceeded otherwise. He it Was who 'fiivst imagined the great con centration of troops by rapid marches. M. de Moltke, his greatest admirer, has • always manifested the greatest contempt for our strategy. I remember having heard quoted some of his very words addressed to a .trench officer on a mission to Berlin—' Do not talk to me of your military education in Africa if you never been there, so much the better; when you become a general you will be glad of it. The war you have been carrying on for forty years against the Arabs is a guerillerie of an inferior order. Never any skilful marches, no feints, no countermarches, rarely any sur prises. With that school you will do nothing more than form other schools like it. . The first great war will demonstrate your ineffi ciency, and were . not in the presence or a nian of your i. it, sir, I should not hesitate to laugh at yu.l' ignorance of the trade to which you devote yourselves. Amongst you —do not deny it—a pioneer is almost a ridiculous person; and in general the working man is one of mean intelligence* Here, on the contrary, the most conscientious studies are in the order of the day, and the lowest captain knows as much as your staff officers who are so brilliant in the ball-room. Have you even a superficial smattering of the elements of the military art on leaving your special schools ? I am 'tempted to doubt it. Come now,' continued General do Moltke, taking the other by the hand, ' I wager that you do nob know what is the most valuable piece of furniture for the chamber of an officer in garrison. Come with me.' So, saying, the old Prussian led his interlocutor Into a small bed-chamber suited to a sub-lieutenant; a small bed without curtains, three straw chairs, shelves of books from the floor to the roof, and in the middle of the room a black wooden board on an easel; the ground strewed with morsels of chalk. 'It is with this that we beat our adversaries every morning,' mur mured the old tactician, who was destined to give afterwards so severe a lesson to General Froissard, the professor of the Prince Imperial. ' And for drawing here is all we want,' and M. de Moltke exhibited some geographical maps. What a singular conversation, when one thinks that it. took place in March, 1870, for I copy it literally from a letter dated the 21st of that month. What may we not have to say about the lessons to be derived from it? We shall profit by them at a later period."

GERMAN TREACHERY IN PARIS.

Ihe Paris Journal narrates that "some days ago some chests -were seized, which were found to contain Uhlan uniforms. Yesterday the arms were found. The 30,000 or 40,000 Ger mans who inhabited Belleville and La Villette before the decree of expulsion was issued had been formed into Regiments. At a given moment, and concurrently with an attack by the besieging forces, we should have been taken in rear by false Uhlans, who would have charged upon us, and caused us to believe that the city had been entered either by a breach or through the sewers or catacombs. Some persons appointed for that purpose were to have called out' Treason,' and then our troops would haVe been assailed in front and rear." The police took possession of thirty-two trucks, all laden with arms and ammunition. Among these arms were chasse pots and needle guns bearing the Prussian eagle. It is said that cuirasses and lances were also found.' •

SINGULAR INCIDENT.

The San Francisco Co» rw/publishes a letter from the Gaulois, which states that at a place called " Jaumont" some Prussians having de stroyed the homes of four peasants by burning their houses and offering violence to their daughters, the men determined to have signal and awful revenge, which they obtained in the following manner. They offered themselves as guides to the Prussians, and led them to a place the Prussians thought impregnable, little knowing the awful doom that awaited them. The place where the Prussians had been led to was a mountainous district of the Garonne, with large excavations underneath, which the French had greatly enlarged, and supported with pillars. After the Prussians had en sconced themselves in their stronghold as they thought safely, one of the guides went and in formed Bazaine of their whereabouts. Pa zaine then attacked ther" in front, and Can robert in the rear with artillery, fired at the supports of the hill on which the Prus sians were. After an hour's firing, the sup ports gave way, and 20,000 Prussians were engulfed in this human tomb. Their cries were heard four days after, and it being im possible to extricate them, the Prussians had to employ Belgians, at teu francs a day, to fill up the cavern with sand, thus completing the most awful revenge ever heard of.

ENGLISH "INTERVENTION."

Literary men are at the seat of war in a new character, not that of special correspon dents, but as nurses to the wounded and sick. We ]oarn from the newspapers that Sir Charles Wentworth Dilke, M.P., propi-ietor of the Athenrcum, Mr. Auberon Herbert, M.P., and Mr. Winterbotham, M.P., have joined the Juanitas, and have been seen*; at Nancy with badges on their arms preparing for their work as brothers of charity. They travel with a train of hospital supplies under Count Golz, and with them arc eleven Sisters of Charity. They are stated to have had somo amusing adventures, to have been arrested by both sides, to have had odd lodgings and adventures, and to have passed in the Crown Prince's track over the recent battle-fields.

THE GUN OF THE FUTURE.

The 35-ton gun in course of manufacture at Woolwich, says the Globe, is now nearly finished. I. is being made entirely on. the Frazer principle, and will be a muzzle-loader. It is built up of five concentric rings, which are made as strong as it is possible to make them. Thecaibre of the bore will be 11$ inches, and the length of tlu gun. 16 feet. The weight of the projectile will be 7001b., and the powder charge will be 1201b.

J. Cosgrctve and Co. beg to inform the public that there is an entire revolution in dress, also in the -prices of goods. It is neces sary" it should be so, as Auckland is not in the flourishing position it was twelve months ago ; it is like cdl goldfield cities, suffering under a recovery, the working classes core more nu merous and money less plentiful. Therefore, the prices of drapery and clothing must come down to suit the times. The population must have clothing suitable Jor an almost tropical summer. J. Cosgrave and Go. have'met the crisis, they have broken downtlie mdnopoly of large profits that hvve reigned here for1 years past. They are determined the people shall be chid and that cheaply ; a great chance, was offered lately, the stock of a large importer, of drapery was in the market, a discount off' English cost was given, and J. Cosgrave,and\) Co. became the purchasers, hence our extensive.] and valuable sale of drapery takes place Thisv, Day. — [Advt.~\ \
