The Evening Star. WEDNESDA Y, MARCH 1, 1871.

A meeting of the creditors in the estate of Edward Thomas Snell, of Coromandel, was held yesterday, and for want of sufficient at tendance adjourned for a week. The liabilities are estimated at about £300

In another column we giro additional parti culars with reference to the accident to the CJio. It is satisfactory to observe that the Stormbird has been ordered round to Bligh Sound, the scene of the accident, to bring on His Excellency, so that in all probability the Luna's trip with the Southern Volunteers for the interprovincia't shooting match will not be interfered with. The Luna may now, there fore, at any time be expected. Wo understand that in reply to the letter from thSParnell Highway Board respecting the Brighton Bridge, as referred to by us in a previous issue, the Eemuera Board have intimated that if the two bridges over the- Slaughterhouse Creek as well as the Grammar. School Itoud- are made a permanent trust between the two Highway Boards they will be willing to join in the reconstruction of the Brighton Bridge.— Herald. On Sunday last, at eleven o'clock mass m' St. Patrick's cathedral, the Rev. John Golden was ordained priest by his Lordship the Most Eev. Dr. Croke, Bishop of Auckland. The reverend gentleman went through his prelimi nary course of studies at St. Coleman's college, Ferrnoy, under the surveillance of the above: distinguished "prelate, when president of that institution. His theological coui'se he after wards read, at St. Patrick's college, Carlow, where also he discharged with credit during two years the duties connected with the re sponsible office of Prefect of the lay depart ment.' His Lordship was assisted on the occasion by the Keys. M. D. O'Jlara, W. McDonald, and P. O'Reilly, a numerous con gregation being present. According to an nouncement previously made, the bishop preached an olegaut and impressive sermon at vespers, taking for bis text, "But if any man have not c.tre of his own, and especially those of his house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.".l "Epistle St. Paul to Timothy, c. 5 to 8. The Chinese division of human life is interesting. The age ,of ten is called the opening degree: 20, youth expired ; 30, strength and marriage; 40, officially apt; 5"", error knowing ; 60, cycle closing ; ■ 70, rare bird of ago; 80, rusty visage; 90, decayed ; 100, age's extremity. Flourens' division is more scientific : Ito 10 years, infancy; 10 to ' 20, adolescense ; 20 to 30, first youth ; 30 to 40, second youth; 40 to 45, first manhood; 55 to 70, second manhood ; 70 to 85, first old age; 85 to 100, second and last old age. Some few years ago, in a most unfrequented part of a northern country of England, ignorance, vice and wretchedness, reigned supreme-. A few benevolent persons, seeing the great immorality, and regretting it ex tremely, determined on building a church, in the hope that the people would become more 1 enlightened and humanised. The day before that on which the bishop of the diocese was to consecrate the church, the following con versation between two farm laborers, most ignorant men, was heard to take place :—" Oi say, Bill, what's a bishop ?" " Dun no," said Bill; " but un thing oi knows—moy biff clog 'ull pin him, whatever he is, that he "nil." From the Contemporary. Review we take the following :—"War is henceforth too horrible, too profligate, too-runioua a thing for the nations to carry on. The time is coming when peace must be enforced. It is idle for each people separately, large or small, to be arming to the j teeth? at tl|e> peril of } destruction. What/is' needed is a league of peace'umong the States, and th,e nation which dares to nitiate such a league will carry the bulk of tb^ civilised wprld|-witb, h.e£. That initiative bejpagcdvbf r^gbt^ "and,: as .it were.rijy jjjpf instinct ofUhe worldj &) "England". Alone, per haps, in all Europe,,she has no reason to covet one inch of territory not her own ; she de mands but to be respected; her fleet must almost of necessity rule the seas. Alone, in all Europe, she has; through the long i enjoy ment of freedom, learnt thoroughly the value of peace. >' / j ]\'i ()J ' j

ART UNION EXHIBITION.

The first exhibition by the Auckland Society of Artists was opened' to-day in the large'front room upstairs in the City Hall. As the catalogues of the paintings are not yet ready, we shall reserve a de tailed account of the Exhibition till an other occasion. There is a very numerous collection ; and though it,is not to be,ex pected that the eye that has been delighted with works:of art in collections among older and more matured communities will be altogether satisfied, —still, there are many really nice pictures, aud. the Exhi bition is thoroughly well worth a visit. Some of the landscapes especially will at tract much attention; and though we have taken but a rapid and cursory glance ac the works exhibited, we feel convinced that the-Exhibition will be generally re garded as creditable in the highest degree to the Society.

CRICKET.

A match will be played to-morrow be tween two elevens, wickets to be pitched at 10 o'clock. The following are vtHe names of those selected to play :— i f

CALEDONIAN DIVIDEND.

SUPREME COURT.— In Banco.

WEDNESDAY, MARCH 1. [Befoi'e His Honor Sir G. A. Arriey, Knight, Chief Justice.] The usnal weekly sitting in banco as held to-day. His Honor took his seat on the bench at 11 o'clock. LoHHINdON V. 0 ARTWBIG-HT.—Ml1. J. B. Russell,iDovdd the Court to dismiss the plaint in tho action, on the ground of non-proceeding, by the plaintiff. The writ was served on the Ist NovembeV,. 1869, and the defendant ap peared to the action on the 15th of Novem ber, but the pl.intiff had never taken any1 further ttep. - Gardner t. Greenway.—This was an ap plication \mder the Trustees of Wills A.ct to obtain-certain money ovA of Court. The trustees had paid the moneys into Court, and the present application was to obtain a portion of that money (£44012s 2d) viz., £110 3s OH. Mr. llesketh appeared for the plaintiff; Mr. Whitaker for the trustees. There was no question in, dispute, and it was arranged be tween counsel that no costs "should be asked. It:appeared that the questions involved had been alreadyl argued.on a previous occasion, when.tho eldest child participating under the will r,cathe of. age. > Another child, Rebecca, Louisa Gardner, now had come of age, hence tho application. Order made accordingly.

POLICE COURT.-Wednesday.

[Before H. Mi Jervis, Esq., J.P.] Drunkenness. —Four drunkards were punished iv the usual mauner, one forfeited bail, aud one was sent lo g;iol for seven days. VaqBANCT.—Ann Swift, as au habitual drunkard, was imprisoned for three months. Unlawfully Wounding. — Cross-charges of unlawfully wouuding and of assault be tween Andrew Mncready and Alexandpr Lyon were adjourned till Wednesday next, in con sequence of the illness of one of the parties.

The following matrimonial advertisement appeared in ' a journal of Rhenish Prussia : " The true friend of a Catholic lady who, from family circumstances, has remained unmarried up to her thirty-sixth year, calls attention to the lady in question. She combines with a handsome and youthful personal appearance, strong and blooming health and an admirably cultivated mind andheart. She belongs to a very good family, and possesses, besides, a capitul of 15,000 thalevs. For the 'moment she is without opportunities of forming for herself a suitable acquaintance. Gentlemen of answerable- age and character, possessed of secured means of existence, great solidity and high considerations, are therefore invited to ofl'er their hands in alliance on the prospect of a happy union. Belonging to tho Catholic confession is much wished for, but is not made a condition. Photographs indispensable."

In the .Brewers' Journal of May 15, appeared a list of the chemicals for the use of brewers : —Bisulphited isinglass, soluble isinglass, sulphate of lime, bisulphite of lime, Tupu lin, soluble dry precipitated iiinglass, Dub lin extra condition (forgiving a head to porter) ; Burton ' extra1' condition (for giving'-a head to ale), double hufciulin aroma, brewing Bae<:lmruni s neutralising salt, (tasteleis to restore sour ale), taste less beer finings, and' ale finings. Are all these- Sanctioned by the Board of Inland Revenue?^ The imprecations of Dr. Slop on Obadiah would be the meed of tho 80/ird, if they arc' Hot bolfed :' " Meledicti sint bibendo, esurieudoy sifiehdoj jejunando, ambukndo standd, ■;'.■ sadendo, jaceabo* operando, mingendo, caocando, et flobotomendo." Well what next ? - Permanganate of potash, by all that is wonderful! but upon a more careful inspection it appears that tho last com pound is intended to'sweeten the inside*, not of men, but' of fusty casks. Let us be thankful for siriall mercies ! — lktterfrofn E S. Gayley. On October 18 there was interred in Ponte fract Cemetery a pensioner named James M'Donald, who, had obtained the patriarchal age" of 100 years on October 1. Deceased had been blind for nearly four years, and was in receipt -of a pension of 2s per day. He wa3 with Lord Nelson at the battle of Trafalgar, and was also through the whole of the Penin sular war. He wore three medals, one of which had eleven bars. Several old pensioners followed the deceased to the grave. On the coffin was the following inscription :—" James M'Donald, died 16th October, 1870. Aged 100 years."

A letter ,from Borne reports :—There is a strong tEovenieht *' in the Sac red to secure on the death of Piu? IX. the election of "a-' foreigner to "the Pontifical • chair, as it ia .thought that an Italian Pope would be com pletely under the control df Ifuly. The pro ject is got up by the ultramontane party, in 'connection with' the Jesuits, who, in the absence of a prominent character among the existing foreign cardinals, are urging, the Pope to fill up the vacancies in the Sacred College. The three candidates1 pat forward for nomina tion are Dr. Manning, Archbishop of West minister ; Monsigrior Dechams, Archbishop ojf Malms; Monsiguor Lo Douchowski, Arch bishop of-Posen ; all of whom will be included in the next creation of cardinals. The Italian cardinals, as might be expected, are, as a body, opposed to the movement, and it is doubtful whether Cardinal Antonelli will por mit the distribution of the hats if he himself has any views on the tiara.— JS Tew York Herald.

The St. Pelersburgh correspondent of the Jrt<Zepsndanee: Beige, ,a< ..■well-ipformed but credulous 'paper, ■' says President Grant has offered^ the alliance of America,in the effort to cancel the Treaty of 1856, and hns'proini&ed to send the American Wavy to assist the Rus sian fleeti Jin /forcing the Darcjiinelles. The story is clearly apocryphal, as America does not interfere -in-European quarrels, and does hot want war ; with England, Mr. Pish having, in a public speech, repudiated General ButlecVwell-meant, attempt- to get up 'one. Any attempt to seize Canada, he said, would mean immediate; war; and as for the forma tion of the Dominion, England had always behaved with the greatest justjce. American affairs ai'e so oddly .managed that it is quite possible the Secretary of State does not want Butler in !the ; Cabinet, while the President does ; but in any case, General Grant is not going, without preparation, to send the small, squadron he has afloat to fight the British fleet. h The Continental Press seems to have an idea that because America' and England hare a lawsuit, for damages on liand all American officials are malicious maniacs. < '

BOARD OF EDUCATION.

*$he "Gentralf■Board of Education was |6 have-met ycsterclpv at 2 o'clock, in the Proving cial Council buildings. At that liorn- Mr. Philips and Dr. Nicholson were present; after 'a while Mr.'Philips, and soon after Mr. O'Korke, who had gone-to lhe : Superinten dent's .Office, having forgotten that the i3la.ee o*f meeting /was changed, arrived.: Dr. Nicholson and Mr. O'fiorko waited for more thjtn an hour, 1 wlien, as^no-other- member of tlie Board appeared, the'meeting,lapsed. . The Secretary had prepare 1 an elaborate analysis of the business, to be laid before the meeting. He had' also prepared a draft of rules and regulations, and a form of attendance roll, to submit to the Board; as well as a re turn of public schools in the Profince from the Central Board estimates in December, 1870. We append a copy of this return : — " Return of Public Schools in the Province of Auckland, receiving aid from the Central "Board of in December, 1870. " Number of public scb'ools in the province, mixed, 46. Number of teachers —Male, 36; female, 15. Total, 51. " Highest number of scholars on the books during the December quarter : —Boys, 849 ; girls, 647. Total, 1496.—Average attendance during that quarter :—Boys, 619 ; girls, 472. Total, 1091; Ages of the pupils—Under ten years of age : Boys, 593 ; girls, 371. Total, 864. Ten years and upwards : Boys, 356 ; girls, 276. Total, 632. " Numbers receiving instruction in the fol? lowing branches of education, viz : —Reading : Boys, 838 ; girls, 641; total, 1479. Writing: Boys, 717 j girls, 524; to'al, 1241. Arith metic: Boys, 706,; girls, 514; total, 1220. Grammar : Boys, 393 ; girls, 278 ; total, 671. Geography : Boys, 471 j girls, 315; total, 786.

On the walls of the room (the old Legis lative Council Chamber) three largo maps were hung, showing the schools aided by the Board now in operation, and those which have ceased to exist; also, indicating those places to whieu assistance has been promised by the Board, but where the schools have not yet been opened ; two large maps, showing the various provincial school reserves. There appears to be two classes of these reserves. One class includes the lands specified in the schedule to the Common Schools Act, 1861 ; and the other consists of certain lands reserved for the purpose of the Education Act, 1857, The Education Reserves Management Act, 1871, places both classes under the control of the Central Board of Education.

PRIMITIVE METHODIST CHAPEL.

Last evening the annual tea meeting in con- I nection with the Edwardes-street Primitive Methodist Chapel was held in the school-room adjoining. An excellent meal was provided, to which nearly two hundred persons sat down, and did ample justice. The tables were very prettily arranged with flowers, &c, and a number of decorations, in the shape of mottoes, &c, were hung up round the room, and did much to give the place a light and graceful appearance. i After tea the guests adjourned to the chapel, when Mr. Cheese: 'man was Toted to the chair ; and the public commenced with singing and ! prayer. The little chapel was quite 1 full, the principal attendants being ; the members 'of the congregation and their friends.r The chairman in the course of his opening remarks referred to the departure df the late pastor, the Rev. Mr. Dean, anl paid a well-merited compliment to the abilities of that gentleman, who, during the period,of his charge, had labored earnestly and zealously in the good cause ; and he was quite sure that it had been a source of regret to all con nected with the chapol that he bad been re moved to fill another sphere in which he would no doubt be equally useful. The members however- had much to bo thankful for, as Mr. Dean's place was filled by a. gentleman who was equally earnest for! the welfare of tho chapel. During the past year they had no reason to complain of any lukewarmneßs on tli© part ,of the congregation, which was both; large and constant in its attendance, and on.the whole the present year was ushered; in with great promise. In a financial point of view matters were equally satisfactory, and under all the circumstances the congre gation had great reason to congratulate themselves on their position. The meet ing was afterwards addressed by the Rev. Dr. Wallis, the Rev. T. Booker, the Rev. Mr. Watters, Mr. J. Allen, and others; between each speaker sacred pieces were pei'formed by the choir, and a very pleasant evening was spent. The sing ing of the doxology brought the proceedings to a close.

THE REVISION OF THE ENGLISH BIBLE.

TnE third session of the New'^A^ainenfc Com pany commenced on Tuesday, anct^vwas con tinued until Friday, 14th October, I!SJ^O, in clusive. The meeting took place, as onNjor mei1 occasions, in the Jerusalem Chambe^ Westminster. There was a full attendance* of the revisers, excepting the Bishop of Win chester, the chairman, j whoso place was filled by the Bishopof Gloucester and Bristol. The details of the revision, cannot, of course, be given; but it is understood that satisfactory pi'ogress was made, and an excellent feeling prevailed apiong the revisers.
