The Evening Star. WEDNESDAY, MARCH 22, 1871.

Next to the total suppression of the traffic in intoxicating liquors, we think that even teetotallers would desire the purity of the drinks sup plied to those who still continue their use. "We can conceive it possible that a man might be actuated by such a diabolical spirit as to wish that'the liquor would burn up the intestinal arrangements of any one not subscrib ing to his extreme reforming doc trines. But all reasonable teetotal lers", and all sensible men, must desire .that the drinks dispensed in our hotels should be free from the dele ' terious substances that have peopled hospitals and lunatic asylums. In no way can this desirable object be so well attained.as by the liquor being manufactured under our own eyes, and by its purity being guaranteed, by the self-interest of the manufac g& turer ; who, from being surrounded by mm a public consuming his wares, would in ■ stantly damn his trade, and blight ■ ou future prospects, by allowing any f C, ti .tt

thing to proceed from his stores con taining deadly concoctions. It is on this account that we should, of all local manufactories, desire to see tho roughly established, a local distillery. Men will drink spirits, .whencesoever they may be derived, and irrespective of the duty of encouraging local in dustry, great social reasons impel us not to oppose,, as frenzied teetotallers woMd urge, but to encourage to the full extent of local demands, the es tablishment of a local distillery. With these views we cordially rejoice to learn the success that has attended Mr. Cawkwell's distillery, recently established in Official Bay. The prob lem, if ever there was a doubt about it, has been solved, as to the possi bility of producing excellent spirits in Auckland. The one single defect, common to the Crown. Distil lery with all other young distilleries, want of age in its production, is one that, like the fault ot youth in the human race, is repaired by time. But vre observe that steps are now in progress by which the establishment will be enabled to hold over its in quantity, and so permit no spirits but those that have been thoroughly matured by age to quit its vaults. In some continental countries this is ar ranged by the state; and, on the manufacturer placing his goods in bond, almost their total value in money is advanced to him at a merely nominal interest, so as to enable him to carry on his business to its fullest extent without compelling him to imme diatey place his wares in the mar ket. We are too enlightened and too much given to the " immu table principles" of fere trade for allowing such paternal fostering of local industry, and in the ab sence of such provision, we observe that the proprietors of our local dis tillery have taken the next best means for the attainment of the same end, in extending their capital by the issue of shares. There are various considera tions that make this procedure a wise one. A vast saving will be effected in purchasing grain, distillation can be completed on an extensive scale during favourable months—winter— and encouragement given to the inci pient beet-root sugar industry, by presenting to growers the prospect of converting their refuse products into rum. Taking into account this latter object, the production of rum, which is known in sugar-growing countries to be incomparably the most profit able operation '** o O » n <.->ti.« -nrUU the Bugor-«*ne, the distillery will immensely increase the prospects of its own success, and will serve an excellent purpose as an auxiliary to one of our most promising industries, the production of beet-root, and its manufacture into sugar. We have no doubt that success wi 1 attend the present movement for the incorporation of a company by the distribution of shares. These shares, we observe, have been fixed at a price that will place them within the reach of everyone; and thus the best guarantee is afforded for the success of any local institution, in the enlist ing the interest of a large body of the people in its prosperity.

"We are glad to see that no time is being lost in utilising the grant of the fcreneral Assembly to the various High way Boards. The first work under taken by the Parnell Board is es pecially of great public advantage, being one that will confer benefits not only on the residents in that sub urban district, but on the city and the country. We have just learned that a contract has been made with the Board by Messrs. Archard and Brown, for a sum of £440, the work to be done being the removal of a difficulty that has hitherto been a great obstacle to the progress of Parnell. The im provement commences at the Swan Inn, and includes the raising of the roadway from that point to the foot of the rise; the exten sion of the stone bridge and a very considerable cutting in the bend of the road ascending the hill. One of the most important improve ments is the erection of a stout wall of stone, three feet in thicknes, and six feet high, protecting the outside of the curve, and intended to remove the danger to horses and vehicles in de scending the hill of being hurled over the precipice. Altogether the im provement in the approaches to Par nell is one of very great importance, and we congratulate the Board on their spirited enterprise. We learn that to this work the City Board has contributed the sum of £80, which may be considered \to bear a fair pro portion to the amount of benefit to city interests in the proposed work.

The fine little steamer G-o-Ahead,- which is leaving for the South to-morrow, left the wharf at 1 o'clock to-day on a trial trip. Several, alteratidns and improvements have been" made during the past fortnight.

REPRESENTATIVE INSTITU TIONS.

With such an example set them by the City Commissioners, it is not surprising that our suburban municipalities should, in their small way, try to emulate our metropolitan civic Board. Yesterday evening the Highway Board of Parnell bad one of those scenes which We had almost come to believe to be ex clusively characteristic of Canada Build ings. It appears that certain persons had come in to the Board-room to hear the debates. The attention of the chairman was drawn to the circumstance of there being " stran gers in the house." On the chair man exercising the authority in him vested, by requesting strangers to with draw, one of the Board denounced his ruling, aad, in defiance, ordered strangers to remain. Another of the trustees here upon took on himself to carry out the chairman's ruling, and "pitchedinto"one of the " strangers," reducing him to a re cumbent position over a chair, at the same time charging him with a conspiracy against the rights and liberties of Parnell. As the " stranger" happens to be a stump orator of no meau magnitude in his own estimation, his offended dignity naturally resented such summary process; and as a consequence, on Friday next, in the Auckland Police Court, we shall "be treated to a fresh chapter on the cour tesies and amenities of representative institutions.

TRIP OP THE VOLUNTEERS.

The Southern riflemen who have been competing in the colonial shooting-match, were this afternoon treated to a trip in the Luna, to Sir George Grey's beautiful Island of Kawau. Ihe Volunteer band accompanied them from the Drill-shed to the wharf, playing as usual, " 'Tis long since last we met, and wo may not meet again ; I've struggled to forget, but the struggle is in vain." The fine old tune, though so familiar to Auckland streets, collected a great crowd, who thronged the wharf to do honour to the gallant Southerners. After being received at Hawaii with the hospitalities usually there dispensed, the Luna will steam away, during the night, to the Thames, where the challenge match with the Thames Yoluuteers will take place, to morrow or next day.

KEROSINE STORAGE.

We are glad to see the promptitude with which Messrs. Archard and Brown have met the necessities of the occasion, in the erection of the new kerosene store in Mechanics' Bay. The building, which is of concrete, will serve a secondary, but by no means unimportant purpose, in bringing before the public mind this i,ui «tj l. 'v* _^ j ~:. i and the rapidity with which the work lies been completed will present not the least important element among the advantages of concrete. The store, which is expected to be finished this week, will be capable of containing seven thousand cases of kero sinc; and will place at absolute defiance all the efforts of incendiaries, burglars, and all similar irregular members of society. One portion of the building will be alloca ted as a bonded store, so that the con venience afforded to the public will be very great. The public spirit of Messrs. Ar chard and Brown-deserves success.

We observe that the Artillery Band, in their march with the Southern Volunteers this afternoon, wore their new uniforms, which have been Tery tastefully manufac tured by Mr. James Camp, tailor, of Queen street.

A special meeting of the members of the pity Board was held at 11 o'clock this morn ing, when the accounts for the last month were ordered to be paid. No other business was transacted.

An incident occurred last evening in Queen street which shews the necessity of a more efficient system of police patrol in the city. A gentleman waiting home with his wife was addresseA in a most insolent manner by an individual partly intoxicated, who persisted in following them. Being anxious to aroid a quarrel, the gentleman thus addressed would have given the man in charge, but no police man could be got, so that when ifc was impassible to get rid of the man, and his abusive language was followed up by personal assault, there was no alternative but for the aggrieved party to administer a chastisement, which he did in such a fashion as to teach a salutary lesson to such ruffians not to presume on the absence of a policeman to indulge in gratuitous abuse.

To-morrow evening the Rev. C. H. Brojke will deliver an address at St. Sepulchre's Church. Subject: " Melanesia."

AMATEUR PERFORMANCE.

An amateur performance will be given to morrow evening, at the Theatre Royal, in aid of the funds of the Home for Destitute Children—a most deserting institution. The chief personages of the performance will be Messrs. Hewitt, Harris, and Bird, the cham pion pedestrians, assisted by Mr. Charles Hillsden, their agent. The performance will comprise the comedies of " The Rough Dia mond" and "Milky White," two excellent pieces. There will also be a musical melange, in the course of which Mr. \Frank Hewitt wilf sing some favourite baLLa rds;>*; Hherperformance will be under the patronage and in the pi'e sence of Lady Bowen, and we hope to see a good house on the'occasion.1 J;'» :,

AUCKLAND HEBREW SCHOOL.

The sixth anniversary of the above took place on Sundaj last, the 19th inst, at the syna gogue, Emily Place, there being present a large number of ladies and gentlemen and. the parents of the pupils. The place whioh the committee and • the pupils occupied was yery neatly decorated, with flWera, evergreens, and

several Hebrew phrases beautifully written in I large letters for the oceasiou. At 3 p.m. the | proceedings commenced with prayer. Master S. Keesing in a very inipressive manner delivered a beautiful prayer in Hebrew and English. The Chaibmak then addressed the meeting. "Ladies and G-entlemen, —In presiding at this the sixth annual examination of our Sab bath-school, allow me to congratulate you on the progress of the institution and the advance ment manifested by its pupils. I can per sonally speak of its many advantages and the good it baa done for our community. Being frequently present to watch the proceedings of the pupils, and assisting in their examination prior to this distribution of prizes, especially on the la3t occasion, which gave me much pleasure in witnessing the evident improve ment made in all the branches of Jewish education. To the grammar class especially I must allude, and say how much pleased I was to hear the ready responses made by all the pupils to the questions put to them. Having been myself a pupil in Mary School at home, where the branches of the Hebrew language have been imparted, I can safely say our school fully equals them, taking into con sideration the time of its existence. As a proof of what the school has produced, I must draw your attention to a piece of poetry, con sisting of nine verses, composed in Hebrew, and literally translated into English verse by Master Morris Kcesing, who only six months ago left this school, and now acts as one of our monitors. The Hebrew composition, aa also the English verse, I need scarcely tell you, is entirely the work of this young gentleman. I am sorry to report that a great want of assist | ance is felt in the school. The head-master has almost alone to bear the burden of the institution, and unless willing hands will volunteer to the service of education the school must retrograde. We have monitors taken from the advanced pupils, who assist the juveniles, and to whom the committee must' tender their thanks. The conduct of the pupils is, with one or two exceptions, all that could be wished, and we must impress upon parents the necessity of assisting the j committee and head-master in carrying out the duties and management of the school in an efficient manner. It is the intention of the committee, however, to be present more frequently during schools hours, and in case of any want of proper behaviour by any of the pupils to remove them at once, rather than the harmony of the school should be affected. The school 13 only fully attended on Saturdays and Sundays ; Scripture history is imparted on Sabbaths and Hebi'ew on Sundays, the consequence is the pupils only have about 40 lessons in each branch during the year. Taking this into consideration, and the small assist ance rendered to the head-master, we can confidently say the pupils have done wonders. If parents would send their children another day in the week besides, say Wednesday after noons, more time could be devoted to Hebrew studies, and of course a greater advancement made. The translation of the Holy Bible is imparted from the original Hebrew, and the principal pupils have gone through the first part; they can translate from tho original text into literal meaning the words of Holy Writ, and thus correct the many errors in the popu lar version. The endeavours of the head master hare been to teach the pupils the boys are able to conjugate rerbs and decline nouns, in fact, treat the grammar masterly, taking words from roots and i*endering their proper meaning. The thanka of the school committee are due to the head-master for the efficient and energetic manner in which he performed his arduous duties, and to whom parents and pupils must be forever grateful. Until his arrival the Hebrew language among the youthful children of our community was almost a dead letter. lam sorry to report that during the last year 22 of our best pupils have left the colony, thereby decreasing the number in the higher classes. In conclusion, let me beg of you to gire every encouragement to our efforts in aid of this useful institution, and parenta to impress upon their children the duties of obedience and attention to their master." Master M. Marks recited " Mah Touvoo," Hebrew and English, which was followed by the hymn " Adone Olome," chanted by all the pupils.

The following pretty recitations were then very proficiently and eloquently delivered: —English poetry, " The Holy Bible," by Miss A. Levy ; 114 th Psalm, Hebrew and Englishj Master E.. Elkin ; pro9e, Hebrew and English, "All Hannissim," J. P. A. Philips ; do., do., " Ahavas Oulom," J. I. Phillips; do., do.i ■' Rachime Now," Miss Juliet Marks; English poetry, " The Temple of Solomon," Master B. Elkin; do. do., " Jerusalem," Miss B. Davis; prose, Hebrew and English, "Yismach Mousha," Miss A. Marks ; poetry, Hebrew and English, "Salvation of Israel," Miss H. Keesing; part of the 32nd chapter of Deuteronomy, Hebrew and English, Miss A. G-oldwater. The distribution of prizes then took place. Master H. Keesing, Ist class, was awarded I with a very handsome prize for general know ledge in the Hebrew studies. 2nd class—lst prize, for translation and grammar, Master B. Elkin; 2nd prize, for translation and reading, Master S. Keesing; 2nd prize, for grammar, Master A. C. Gold water. 3rd class—lst prize, translation, Miss Juliet Marks; 2nd prize, do., Master R. Elkin. 4th class, Ist division —Ist prize, Hebrew reading, Master M. I Marks ; 2nd prize do., A. Asher. 2nd division —rlßt prize, Hebrew reading, Master Sydney Philips ; 2nd prize, do., Miss A. Levy. The Chairman gave an exhortation io his youDg friends in the following terms :— "Now the great event of the day being the distribution of prizes, allow me to impress upon my young friends, those especially who have been fortunate in gaining prizes, to still continue in their endeavours, not for the more sake of winning a prize, but of making them selves masters of their studies, more especially in; the knowledge of our holy, language, which will teach them the' duties they owe to their &od, their parents, and fellow men. To::the unsuccessful ones let me give a foV i words of encouragement, that is, to do what your playmates havejdone, and I am confident !of your future success. Before " Yigdol,"il have milch .pleasure in informing you that the Board of Management have provided some good things in the way of edibles, which I trust you will all enjoy." The hymn " Xigdol" was chanted by nil. The proceedings were brought to a conclu • sion by a hearty vote of; thanks to tho chairman; after which thttchildven >tere re galed with the best of cakes and other re freihments, and thus a very happy and pleasant afternoon was spent.

Hia Honor the Chief Justice sat in banco on Tuesday. There was a good deal of business brought before the Court. In the case of the. Hauraki Saw-mill v. Cochrane, judgment was given for the plaintiffs for £175 (calls). The most important case, however, was a motion for a rule to quash the conviction of the Justices in the case of the colliers of thl« Kawakawa mine. Mr. Whitaker appeared for the Justices ; Mr. Rees for the defendants, the colliers. ' It was stated by Mr. Rees that the Justices were anxious to inflict much less punishment; but the men wbulcl not have less than a month, so, as we presume, tp enable them to come before the higher court. Mr. Rees contended that the. powers con tended for by the other side were enormous. The learned counsel contended; that, thfe objections to the conviction ought to have great weight with the Court, for in such cases there was the strongest reason that every qualification, anthorifcy, and description of the information should be fully set out. His Honor, in a very luminous decision, ordered the conviction to be quashed. His Honor's judgment will be found in another column. In the case of Q-ilbert v. Gilbort (demurrer) His Honor deferred judgment. We understand that it is in contemplation to form an engineer corps in this city. Such a corps as this is usually considered "to be one of the most important branches of the Volun teer service, and we have often been sur prised that a move in this direction has /not been made long ago. Already some fifty names hare been given in by persons willing to join. We believe..that, the promoters of the movement will wait upon Major Gordon to-day on the subject. The News of the World says :—" The Hon. Julius Vogel, Colonial Treasurer and Post master General of : New Zealand, left Sf^n Francisco for Washington on the 13th mat. Through the courtesy of the Central Pacific Railroad Company, a special private bar was appropriated! for his use and that of: his suite."
