The Evening Star. FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1871.

A few days ago a leading article ap peared in our contemporary the Even ing News, being professedly the miners' account ot the difficulty between em floyers and employed at; the Bay of .-lands coal mines. As the article Was self admitted to be special plead ing, the bias seemed excusable. The case made out appeared, however, so Btrong—was wound up by such a burst of eloquent spread eagleism, about serfs in Siberia—that we have been at the pains to get correct information on the subject, and do not hesitate to express our indignation at the utterly

false and unfounded statements of our contemporary. What can prompt him to endeavour to pander to the low passions of the mob, and to ex cite animosity against employers we cannot conceive. It is not kind ness to the working men, for it would only tend to produce a state of things that will deter capital from beiug in vested in any enterprise. The cor rect view of what has been occurring at the Bay of Islauds is fully borne out by the depositions en oath taken at the Police Court, and is wholly dif ferent from the untruthful aspect pre sented by our contemporary. The miners had been earning, as stated, about nine shillings per day, and almost the whole of the Alteration in terms was in obliging them to use their own candles, as it was found the company's candles did not last one fourth the time during which the miner's own candles burn. The cause of this is intelligible. The finding of their own picks by the men was necessitated by similar causes, and the total reduction in wages being an average of about fourpence out of their nine shillings, was not such as to be felt very oppressively by the men. Notice of these three items of alteration was given to the meu ; and the manager asked them to say if they would slay on the terms, and, at the same time, told them that if they did not stay, they must of course give the usual fortnight's notice. Not one of them had the straightforwardness to say yes or no. That was not their game : and everyone that knows hu man nature can appreciate the tactics. The intention eridently was to stop work without any warning, and so embarrass the Company and com pel it to take them on at their own price. Mr. Williams asked every man separately, and with the exception of eight, who con sented to remain at the price, every miner preserved a sullen silence as by concert. They intentionally and deliberately gave the manager no grounds for believing that they meant to leave, and so demeaned themselves as to convey the impression that they would continue on the new terms. When the moment came for carrying their concerted action to effect, they struck.

On the new miners arriving from the Thames, the terms of the agreement were read over to them ; they were tod the others "were on strike; they thoroughly understood the terms, and stated they " did not mind the men on strike—that they came for work, aud work they would," and on this clear understanding signed the agreement All this has been sworn to ia the Police court. Butfrom the hourthey signedthe agreement they were never left alone, some of the old hands constantly stay ing with them. And on the following morning the miners took the new comers away in a body, hired boats, and took them down the river, paid their passages, and sent them off to Auckland, so stopping the works at the mine ; the men who were sent avraj giving as their reason that they " were afraid to go back, on account of the old hands." This was the state of things, and this is what an evilly disposed little contemporary would presume to defend. During the time that this was proceeding, the old miners were trying every means to stop any one from working, by march ing about in a body singing songs in the most insulting and defiant manner, and hurling contempt at the managers and company. Mr. Barstow, the Re sident Magistrate from Russell, vo luntarily offered to go up and try to bring them to see how foolishly tbey were acting, but they very rudely re fused to see him, at which we under stand he felt much hurt, as it was only out of kindness, and from knowing some of them personally, that he had offered to go. And this is the magisterial interference of which our pestilent contemporary endea vours- to make capital, as exceed ing tbe severity of Siberian ukaae. The men for some time past have been acting in the most unfair manner to the company. Some three months ago tenders were called for driving levels, when they all agreed to not lower the price then going, thus pre venting the work being done cheaply. And again, shortly before the strike they refused to work, only for eight hours in each twenty-four, and only at such times as . they them selves pleased, when, from the exigencies of such a work as mining it was manifest that it was necessary to adopt the hours to emergencies. Of course our eon temporary, in his new character of "The Working Men's ■Friend," would say that this was legi timate, and that the men should be the judges of their own work. But while conceding this, we assert that it is such conduct and such combination that deters capital from being em ployed. The coalmines have hitherto jbeen worked at no profit to the pro prietors, and their development is of

public interest. The manager, from bis distance from Auckland and the Thames, is to a large extent in the hands of these miners who consider they have a rested in terest in* the mines, and regard men coming from other places as in truders. The company have built most comfortable cottages for the miners, and let them to them at the merest nominal rent ; and not only have they paid what must be regarded as splendid wages, but in providing education, secular and religious, week day and Sunday, and in every way consulted their health and comfort, have placed the Kawakawa miners in circumstances that might be envied by working men in any part of the colonies. And now, when these fellows have waxed fat and kicked, and refuse to allow workmen from other districts to intrude on their preserves, the Evening News must back them up in their defiance of law and order; and for the sake of humour ing a few idle loafers who do not want to work, commends a conspiracy for shutting out working men from excel lent wages, and discourages the deve lopment of works that might be made the means of giving employment to many hundreds, and vastly benefiting the general interests of the province. We can hardly find words to express the indignation that should be felt at such conduct. The account given by the Evening News is garbled and untruth ful from first to last, and ouly tends to produce a spirit of dissatisfaction be tween labour and capital, which it is the duty of all well-wishers to the country to remove.

The case of the man Watts acquitted yester terday from the charge of " forging and uttering," aud to-day committed for trial on the charge of " obtaining goods by false pretences" brings to the surface the facilities afforded for the commission of crime in the readiness w.th which strange cheques are received. The document which passed in the commission of this offence was the most un gainly possible. The signature is an almost undecipherable scrawl. The body of tho cheque in which the amount is usually writ ten bears certain cabalistic figures huddled together in the most unbusiness like way ; and altogether the document has an aspect most deterrent, and yet we do not suppose that its acceptauce was anything remarkable, or contrary to the usages in the transaction of business. But it does seem passing strange, that while a storekeeper would perhaps refuse credit to a customer, he will permit him to hava valuablo goods, on the presenting a document known as a cheque of which neither the signature nor the signer, nor his banking account is known. This document is received on the word of the giver, so that really the goods are virtually sold on credit ; nor is there the smallest additional security given to the person parting with his goods. It may be supposed that greater legal responsibility is incurred by tho purchaser. But if be signer of the cheque have an account at the Bank on which the cheque is drawn, howerer over run, and however unnegotiable the document, there is no legal criminalty. So that a store keeper parting with his goods to a stranger on the faith of|an unknown cheque, incurs an amount of risk tbat might be supposed to be sufficient to induce great caution. And y t the case illustrated in the Police Court is one re peated every day, and traders within sight of the banks, merely because it may bo after office hours, are willing to bear the risk. Of course in so far it is their own concern, but looking at it in the light of public interest il cannot be denied that great temptations are pre sented thereby to the perpetration of crime ; and the means of rai.si-ig money or getting goods by valueless cheques is so simple that the wonder is that the offence of " forging and uttering" is not more frequent.

On the night of Tuesday Inst (says the Burrowa Advocate), Miss Ellen Sheedy when about retiring to rest at hrr parent's residence, Frogmore, observed on tho floor of her bed room what sue conceived to be one of those articles used by so many of the fair sex for the decoration and adornment of the hair. She stooped to pick up what had attracted her attention, but speedily discovered her unfortunate mistake, the supposed article being a brown snake, coiled up, but which, on being seized at once revealed its venomous nature, sting;ng tbe .unsuspecting, .young lady in the right baud, between the first and second fingers. Ou discovering the true nature of the unwelcome intruder, Miss Sheedy at once raised the alarm, and her parents and their son-in-law (Mr. Bourke) immediately pro ceeded to her sleeping chamber on hearing the outcry. She related what had happened, and Mr. BourUe promptly seized the injured hand, cut open with a penknife the affected part, and sucked the wound. Other measures were also adopted to relieve the pain of the suf ferer, whose arm begau to assume a dark color, and became swollen to very large proportions. The reptile that inflicted the wound was dis patched shortly after the occurrence, and on being measured was found to be nearly five in length. The young lady recovered with medical assistance.

The Ballarat Star reports a long speech of Mr. W. Clarke to the electors of Grenville, giving one passage of the address in the fol lowing form :—" He made these assertions to dissipate the slanderous reports that had been set abroad. 'Against slander there is no defence. (Loud laughter.) Hell cannot boast so foul a fiend, or man deplore so fell a foe. (Laughter.) It slabs wid a word, wid a wink —(laughter)—wid a nod, wid a shrug. It is a pestilence that walketh in darkness, which the most weary traveller cannot avoid ; it is th heart-searching dagger of the assassin. (Cheers.) To revile innocence is its delight, to destroy reputations is its chief object and aim.' " We Jearn that tbe candidate received a vote of con fidence.

i An emergency meeting of Lodge United Service, No. 421, 1.C., will be held thi» evening. . 7

RESIDENT MAGISTRATE'S COUR Friday.

[Before Thomas Beckham, Esq., B.M.] The usual sitting was held yesterday for the hearing of small debt cases. JITDG-i-ENT TOU PLAINTIFFS. —Nell V. W. Povd, claim, £2, cash lent; agreed to pay in a fortnight; A. Thorne v. H. Becker, claim, £7 10s. (former judgment unsatisfied) ; Gil lan v. Chapman, £7 (judgment debt unsatis fied), ordered to pay 2s. a week ; Skeat v. i Sinimonds, £G, rent; ordered to pay ten shd lings a week. Ft_i_._: v. CoKN—Alleged fraud.—Claim, £2 153 —Mr. Wynn said that this was a case in which tbe Court ought to inflict the bigbbst penalty known to the law. The defendant, it appeared, bought a watch off the plaintiff, tendering a cheque in payment, saying that he had tho money in the Bank of New Zea land. The plaintiff, however, ascertained that there was very great doubt about the defendant having money in the bank. The cheque was ultimately found to be worthless, as the defendant had no money there at all. — The plaintiff deposed to the facts, and said that the defendant never gave him any por tion of the debt. The defendant sub.equently said that it was bis wile who had the account at tho bank.—The defendant, with great •saueiness, for which he was rebuked by the Court, said he had offered the plait-tiff half-a-crown off the debt, and a pumpkin, which was also worth half a crown. He would have paid more, but the plaintiff behaved so badly and went to the Police Court to prosecute him criminally.—The Court: If bis statement be true, and there is no reason to doubt it, he would have been justified in prosecuting you criminally; you mu3t pay the money or go to pmon for two mouths.—Defendant: I will go to prison for fifty months before I'd pay the rogue a penny. —It transpired in the course of examination that the defendant went to Mr. James Bussell to ask for money to bury one of his children, but ho evidently forgot this cir cumstance when questioned by Mr. Wynn, for his answers were to the effect that he bad not lost any of his children.— * His Worship said *_c defendant had not im proved his position by his behaviour. — Humphrey v. Saville. —Claim, £6. —This was a claim for wastes. —Mr. Bussell appeared for the defendant. —The defence was that there was no indebtedness, that plaintiff boarded and lodged at the defendant's boarding house for several years " off and on," and that if there was any claim it was on the side of the defend ant.—The evidence was conflicting, and the plaintiff was nonsuited.

POLICE COURT.—Friday.

(Before H. Morrow and Or. M. Mitford, Esqs.,

Justices)

Drunkenness. —H. Swills and Elizabeth Kennedy were each fined ss. and costs, with the usual alternative. C. Duckingfield for feited bail.

Obtatni-vo Goods by False Pbetences.— William Watts, who was acquitted on the previous day of forging and uttering a cheque for £7 12.. 6d. to Combes and Johnston, pur porting to bearthe signature of E. J. Wilson, was now charged with obtaining by false pre tences the goods purchased and the money given in change for the document. The same evidence was a Iduced as on the previous day. Prisoner was committed for trial at the Supreme Court

Lunacy.—Two persons, proved to be of unsound mind, on the evidence of Drs. Bayn tun, Lee, and Hooper, were sent to the Luna tic Asylum.

CRICKET MATCH

A cricket match was yesterday played in the Albert Barracks, by the Peripatetics v. Strangers, in which (as will be seen by the -core below) the Strangers eot a most terrible handling from their opponents, who best them easily in one innings. I fees alone scored more in the first innings th in the whole of the Strangers put together scored it. their two. The efF ctive manner in which Bees and Mumford handled the willow was the theme of general admiration. Bownn's bowling certainly came very hard on the Strangers, whose wickets went down before it like snow before a fieice fire. The gamo was all one side, and consequently the interest of it was considerably diminished. We hope if there i. a return match that the parties will be a little more equally weighted.

CATHOLIC VIEW OF THE POPE'S POSITION.

According to Archbishop Spalding, who is the leading prelate of the Roman Catholic Church in America, Pope Piua IX. is in a much worse position than most men had supposed—or in other words, that tbe absorption of Rome by Italy is a far more important step than tho public generally had imagined. He maintains that the Holy Father "is a p isoner to all intents and purposes ;" that " the invasion of the Papal territory by King "Victor Emanuel transcends in guilt any outrage of the century;" that the plebiscite submitted to the- people was a sham and a farce ; and that " the Oecu menical Council would have lasted a year or so longer if it had not been for this treacherous invasion." There were, ho adds, forty im portant questions left untouched wh . the Council broke up. Why did it break up f beu ? Because, says this distinguished prelate, " the bishops had to fly for their lives," and •"' mur der at this moment stalks unchallenged through the streets of Rome." These are serious assertions to come from such a source.

They havo already 800 ounces on hand in addition to the 800 now being retorted. lhere is more to follow. Shares cannot be purchased this morning. The Inverness have had a crushing. One hundred and twenty tons yielded 69 ounces. The election at Coromandel passed off quietly. The returns were re ceived this morning, and are as fol low : O'Neill, 213; Swan, 28. Mr. O'Neill is therefore returned with a majority of 171.

A miner, named Edward Sullivan, met with a dangerous accident yester day, at Tapu. The stump of a tree fell on the back of his ne^k while he was working, injuring his spine. The poor fellow has been taken to the Hospital, aud no hopes are eutertained of his recovery.

ACCIDENTS.

Last evening a man named Israel, who lives in Freeman's Bay, went into the Clanricade Hotel at the corner of Wyndham and Albert streets, it is thought for the purpose of hav ing a sleep. The deep torpor into which he fell aroused suspicions, and Dr. Lee was sent for, who at once perceived that the man had taken a large dose of laudanum. The stomach pump was applied, and very soon Israel came round, when he admitted taking a quantity of laudanum, but he stated that he did so merely for the purpose of getting sleep, and with no intention of poisoning himself. He, however, took much too large a dose—about an ounce, —and had proper remedies hot been applied in time, his life would probably have paid the forfeit of bis rashness. Israel is a married man, with a large family, and there ia no reason to believe that he meditated self destruction, though his escape was a very narrow one.

Shortly before ten o'clock last evening, a man named Smith, who was standing near tbe edge of the wharf, fell o»er into the water. He at once made for tbe nearest object—the i rudder of a cutter—to which he clung most tenaciously, at the same time calling fur assistance with all his might. The «atsr-polico heard the cry, and Constable Oarrigan promptly went to'his assistance, and succeeded in rescuing him from his perilous position. Smith was very much exhausted, and had tbe assistance been delayed but-a few moments louger, he would in all proba bility have been sweft away from his hold and drowned. We have on previous occasions called attention to the necessity of having a chain guard along the wharf at night time, from pile to pile. Had this been done long ago, many lives that have been sacrified through men falling off the wharf at night, would probably have been saved. The cost of a light chain would bo but trifling, and something certainly ought tojbe done "in the matter.

A sitting in bankruptcy was held yeaterday before Laughlin O'Brien, *Esq., Registrar of the Supreme Court. Georgo Loverock, master of the schoouor Eagle, passed his last exami nation and was discharged. The case of W. P. Crawford and Henreicb Nees were ad journed for a week: those of Martin, Shad well Harney and Parker (opposed), were ad journed for a.fortnight, when they will be beard by the Chief Justice.

A MORMON LOVE TRAGEDY.

Miss Latjiia Claire, the beautiful daughter „<■ Professor Ignaz Claire, the astronooier _« . cording to the Utah Gospel, for some ti!f* been engaged to Mr. Alfred Vivian, tbe ™T writer, author of "Hell and Heaven-,- ! will yen have?" "Think and Bei» " Prayers for the Sinners," and other tract, which have given him quite a reputation • h„. for some reason or other it has been suspected 1 that there wos a coolness between the Still, Miss Claire loved him devotedly and tho preparations for the wedding were gob on. In the meanwhile a Mr. Jos. Morton fell desperately in love with Miss Claire and refused to be denied admittance to the house although Professor Claire had several time' ordered him cut. He, when treated thus 8 declared mysteriously that he knew certain secrets about Miss Claire, and if she did not marry him he would repeat them. Be de manded to see her alone. This »he finally con^ sented to, and, after a long interview aL departed, stating he would return the next day. To tbis she smiled and . saidy-"^-..». shall always be glad to see you." These word, were repeated by one of the servants to M r Vivian when be came t_at evening, and he' asked his affianced w hat they meant. She said •' JSothing." After a while he saidj "Do yon love this Morton?" Miss Claire laughed and said, "Don't be a fool, Alfred." "Thenyoa refuse^ to • answer ?" he said. She frowned " You know I love you," she answered 5 "and" if you ask me any more silly questions I ifou be angry." Mr. Vivian left shortly aft^r appearing much displeased. The next morn ing Mr. Morton came. The servants noticed that Miss Clairo was deadly pale, but she received him quite cordially. "You -must have some wine," she said "Of course," he replied, " with you." He took the glass and drank it. Shortly after he departed, "put be fore he walked three blocks he fell. to j the ground and was pinked up dead! Apost mortm examination rev'-aled that he had been poisoned Miss Claire was arrested. She sent for Vivian. "Do you believe me guilty?" j) le asked. "I. have nothing to say," he re plied j " I am and have been for a month engaged to be married to a gay iadj ia this city, and it is not right that T should be seen with you. The young lady uttered a piercing scream, " Oh ! Alfred,'1 she shrieked, " I did it for your sake. I loved you. __ c could have prevented our marriage. Oh, Alfred! do not desert me-save me! .are me!" Mr. Vivian tore himself away and would have quitted the cell, when Miss Claire placed herself with her back against the door. " Look," she Baid, and, before he could prevent it, she'had •: drawn a dagger, and, stabbing herself, she fell dying at his feet. " I forgive you—Hove, you," she murmured, and her eyes1 closed for1 ever.
