To night the " Star Chamber" will be reproduced. Theteameetingin connection with this schoo was held last evening, in the school-room, at which a large number of the young and old sat down to an excellent tea provided by the ladies of the High-street Church. After tea the Rev. J. Buller took the chair, and the meet ing was addressed by several of the ministers attending the District Meeting. The Secretary' (Mr. W. Thome) then read a long and interest ing report from which it appeared that the school was in an efficient state, both as regards teachers and management. The number of children on the books is 145, the attendance of the children being a great improvement on that of the preceding year. No deaths have occurred during the last two years. Tho am ount eucscribed by the children toward the.mission fund during the year was £6 3s 4dl . The library consists of 600 volumes of vauable. and interesting works, which is large ly patronised by the children. During the past, year a branch Sunday school has been opened in Barrack-street, at which upwards of forty children regularly attend. —The children of the school sang several hymns during the evening in a very creditable manner.

INQUESTS.

THE MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT AT THE NORTH SHORE.

An inquest was held yesterday at the house of Mr. Nicholson, Shoal Bay, before Dr.Philson, Coroner, and a jury, upon the body of Wil liam McFridge, aged three and a-half years, who ■ was drowned under circumstances as described in our yesterday's issue. The prin cipal witness was Mrs. Vaughan, who deposed that she saw the deceased fall off the plunk into the creek. Mrs,-Nicholson, the grandmother, who was a good swimmer, immediately jumped into the creek after the body, but did not succeed in saving his life. —After heirinn the evidence, the jury re turned a verdict of " Accidental Drowning."

The search for Mrs. Nicholson .was con tinued throughout yesterday, but without avail. It is very probable that the body was carried out into the harbour, in which case it may not be found for several days ; but, on the other hand, it is just possible that she may have swam safely ja shore, and may still turn up, although wo are afraid that is hardly likely.

ANOTHER CASE OF DROWNING.

An; inquest was held yesterday at the North' Shore, on the body of a man found washed upon the rocks. Henry Lloyd, Esq., J.P., and the Coroner, convened a jury, of which Mr. C. R. C. Smith was foreman. The body was in an advanced stage of decomposi tion, but was identified by Major Stoney, by the clothing, as that of the man Tom Williams, lost overboard from the cutter Asp in a gale of wind on the 4th instant. The jury ra turned a verdict of " Accidental Death."

WESLEYAN METHODIST DIS TRICT MEETING.

The annual district meeting of the Wesleyan ministers in the North of New Zealand com menced on Tuesday hist. Tlie sittings began in the High-street Church, and have been re j sumed daily in the Pitt-street school-room. The affairs of the Methodist Church in New Zealand,from Taranaki northward, are brought under review, "arid reports are prepared, and recommendations are submitted for the ap proval of the ensuing conference. As the business is all transacted in a conversational manner, and in answer to certain definite questions annually submitted, we can oniy present our readers with a condensed report of the proceedings. There were present, besides the Rev. J. .Buller (Chairman), the Rev. Messrs. Hobbs, Wallis, Warren, Buttle, Lawry, Bigg, Schnackenberg, Gittos, Rowse, Crump, Smith, Berry, Law, and Simmonds. The sittings liave been held daily from nine to one o'clock, ench Bitting beginning with sing ing, reading the Scriptures, and prayer.—lt was found, upon enquiry, that no ministci had died during the year, and that there were no cases for the exercise of discipline arising from the character, conduct, or teaching, of any minister present. The moral and doctrinal purity of the Methodist ministry is carefully guarded, by an annual enquiry on each of these points, in the case of every minister.—lt was decided that the name of Mr. Jaggar, together with those of Mpssrs. Hudson and Worker, be placed upon the list of the ministers duly authorised to solemnize marriages in connection with the Wesleyan Methodist Church in their respective districts. The two probationers—the Rev. Messrs. Law and Simmonds —preached trial sermons on Wednesday evening, in Che presence of minis ters deputed to hear them. They were ex amined in theology and general literature on i Thursday morning. As the usual four years' 1 term of "probation has not expired in either case, both remain on .trial for the present.— The Chairman stated to the meeting that he had received official intimation of the sailing for New Zealand of four Wesleyan ministere.

They left London in tne*City of Auckland, in the middle of September, and may be ex pected to arrive here next, month. One is for Auckland, another for Coromandel, and two for the South. ' The news of their coming was an occasion of joy, as the need for more laborers has long been deeply felt. —The fol io-wing list of ministers' stations for the en suing year is recommended for the adoption of Conference:—Auckland, the Revs. C. W. Eigg and J. Berry (Grafton Road), and one from England; supernumeraries, the Revd. J. Hobbs and H. H. Lawry; Thamesi, the Rev. J. Buller, and one from England for Coromandel; New Plymouth, Rev. J.

J. Cosgrave 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 ii not in the flourishing position it was twelve months ago ; it is like all goldfield cities, suffering tinder a recovery, the working classes are more nu merous and money less plentiful. Therefore, the price*, of drapery and clothing must come down to suit the times. The population must have clothing suitable for an almost tropical summer. J. Cosgrave and Co. have met the crisis, they have broken down the monopoly of large profits that have reigned here for years past. They are determined the people shall be clad and that cheaply ; a great chance icas offered lately, the stock of a large importer of drapery was in the market, a discount off English cost zoos given, and J. Cosgrave and Co. became the purchasers, hence our extensive and valuable sale of drapery takes place This Day. — \_AdvA]
