The Evening Star. MONDAY, MARCH 13, 1371.

Although on Saturday afternoon a little more interest was manifested in the proceedings at One-Tree Hill, it must be owned that the indifference that has been show a respecting the Colonial Bifle contest is in the highest degree discreditable to the people- of Auckland. It is generally admitted that there is less of public spirit in our city than in most other places ; and the impression conveyed to our Southern visitors will not tend to re move our provincial character;. During the last Colonial Kific match, in Otago. though the weather was most inclement, and even at times when the rain was descending heavily, several thousands were to be found on the scene of com petition, holding their ground man fully against the weather. Whereas, during the past week, an average of ( a dozen or two persons represented the Auckland public on the field, and of these nearly two-thirds were engaged in the sale of oranges and cigars, and ginger-pop. It is the same indiffer entism that falls like a wet blanket on every enterprise projected in the place, and everything out of the ordinary routine of the Auck-i land jog-trot. "Were it not for a kind of mental and physical laziness that seema endemic, the One-Tree Hill on such an occasion would be thronged. The loveliness of the scenery and of the weather would have combined with the impor tance of the contest, and an. impetus would have been given to the cause of volunteering. If the number of citizens at the rifle range during the past week may be taken as an indica tion of the interest felt in things mili tary, we would almost wish to see something happen to frighten our citizens and awake a proper sense of the importance of making an effort to I prepare for the defence of the country.

Agaln" and again from various districts complaints have come, regarding ne glect on tho part of the various sub enumerators, and if these complaints are not exaggerated, the census re turns must necessarily be somewhat defective. This ia the more to be regretted, as the province will need all the money to which it will be entitled as capitation allowance, in view of the public works required. We do not know if there is any way of making these sub-enumerators responsible for a neglect which will be felt in a tan gible form by the Provincial Treasury. As every omission of a name is a los 3 to the province of a couple of pounds for the first year, and an annual loss on the decreasing scale of the capitation allowances, until the next taking of the census, such errors are really deplorable, and if there is any way in which such culpable negli gence could be treated as a criminal offence, the officers of the law might employ themselves in its execution with great general satisfaction. But we we presume the sub-enumerators will expect payment for their work, we sincerely trust that every proved omission of a name from their returns will be charged to them according to the loss sustained by the province. Nothing could be more equitable. If those gentlemen undertook a certain duty, and if that duty has been neg lected, the pecuniary loss thereby sus tained by the province should be recouped from their commissions.

Ik connection, with the Slaughter-' house at Newmarket, we have inciden tally learned that some most scanda lous and disgusting revelations have come to light. We have heard enough to disturb the epigastric regions of any ordinary man for a week ; and though we do not desire the nausea of the community, we think the public should learn what it is they have occasionally eaten. It is said, "..When ignorance is bliss, :tis folly to -be wise" ; and if health, aud even life, were not endangered, we should act on the principle that " What the eye never saw the hearb should not grieve for." But if it is so that, like vul tures, we have been feeding on carrion, sanatory considerations demand our en lightenment.

Messrs. Lewis Brothers- -sOl hold an ox tensive sole of fruits, jams &c.j at the stores of Mr. H. S. Meyers, to-mon-ow. The fruit was received by tho Dancing "Ware from Hobarfc Town, and Kate from Sydney, and is in excellent condition. Tho sale commences at 10 o'clock. The schooner Tauranga an-ived here from Tauranga this morning. She brought on about 309 telegrams Cram the Sou Hi, received at Tauranga. The sixth anniversary service, in connection with St. James's Presbyterian Church, Wel lington-street, took place yesterday afternoon." The Rev. J. Cosh, of St. Andrew'a, conducted service in the morning ; the Rev. James Hill, from the Thames, preached in the evening. The attendance on. both occasions was very good, and collections were made at the close of each service. Tenders are required by the Provincial Q-o ---verament for certain works to be done on the Great North Boad. A meeting of the shareholders of the Coro mandel Gr,ld Mining Company is convened for Monday, 3rd of April. The p.s. Duke of Edinburgh will leave for Waugarei this day, at four o'clock p.m, having been detained on Saturday. It will be seen by advertisement that the annual meeting of the Ladies' Benevolent Society will take place to-morrow evening, in the large room of the Young Men's Christian Association, Albert-street. The chair will be taken by his Honor the Superintendent. Lady Bowen, the patroness of the Society, ha 3 signified her intention of being present. 1 The meeting will be addressed by the Bishop lof Auckland and several clergymen, aud other friends of the Society.

ACCIDENT ON THE ONEHUNGA ROAD.

A Satheh alarming accident occurred yesterday on the Onehunga Koad, but, we are happy to say, without very serious results. Three of the employes of the Auckland Hotel started yesterday after noon, about half-past three o'clock, in a buggy, for Onehunga. On nearing that township they were met by two horsemen galloping at a tremendous pace, who, passing on each side of the vehicle, frightened the horse and made him bolt. After proceeding some distance, notwith standing the efforts of the driver to pull in the horse, a wheel wrat orer a large stone, and the driver was flung to the road. Clinging ta the reins he was dragged for some distance, when ha was obliged to rel nquish his hold. One of the occu pants of the buggy, apparently in an effort to secure the reins, was thrown forward among the horse's feet, and the wheel went over her head and shoulder, hurting her rather severely, her head especially bciug severely cut. The third occupant of the buggy fortunately retained her seat, and the horse continuing his rapid pace, was at length brought up on ontering One hunga, by a number of men who barred his way. The sufferer was promptly and carefully attended by Dr. Tennent, and subsequently brought into Auckland, but has not been found to hare been danger ously injured. Her companions were more fnghtened than kit.

CYCLONE AT MAURITIUS.

On the -lth and sth of January a cyclone passed to the northward of tha island.*" Dur ing the consequent atmospheric disturbance a heavy rain fell at Mauritius. The quantity of rain that fell in the forty-eight hours varied from 30 inches in the highest parts of the island to 8 inches in the lowest. Many parts of the island were inundated by tha overflow ing of rivers and the torrents from the moun tains, but it does not appear that any damage was done. * I

We also ap pend the aggregate scoring in the prize-firing from the commencement till Saturday evening, from which some idea may be formed of the probable fiual result of the contest. STXTTT STJT.

AGGREGATE SCORES.

THIS DAY.

The fifth day of the Colonial Rifle thooting was not so favorably circumstanced in the matter of weather as the days preceding ; the weather, for the first time since the commence ment, being such as to somewhat operate against accurate shooting. The wind blew very strongly, but, fortunately, it was in the direction of the range. Skortly before ten o'clock the competitors had assembled, and the proceedings commenced, Colonel Harring ton being in command of the whole of the men, assisted by Majors Gordon and Tisdall, and Lieutenant Snell. Major Gordon was iv command of No. 1 squad ; Major Tisdall, of No. 2 ; Captain Derrom, of No. 3 ; and Major Coopei*, of itfo. 4. Lieutenant M. Connell, Ensign Mclutosh, and Ensign Kelly were in charge of the butts. The rapidity firing was resumed at 10 o'clock but was not concluded when our re porter left. The firing was going on very accurately, considering the wind, but so far as it had proceeded, at on* o'clock, Buchanan was still anead, his score of 89 hai not been approached by any of the others. Tory few people were on the ground, but the band of the Artillery was present, and in discoursing sweet music served to enliven the scene.

VOLUNTEER INTELLIGENCE.

These was yesterday morning a church parada of the Auckland and Southern Volunteers, when they attended St. Paul's Church at half- j past nine o'clock, and listened to a very elo quent sermon, delivered by the Bishop of Auckland. The Rifles and the Southern com petitors, together with the Cavalry, mustered at the Drill-shed before nine o'clock ; the Artil lery and Navals mustered at Fort Britomart. There was an excellent attendance of members —fully 300 men of the different forces being present, exclusive of the three bands and our visitors from the South. Colenel Harrington was in command, and Mnjora (Gordon and Tisdall and the whole of the officers of the forces were present. The men marched to church, headed by their bands, at half-past nine o'clock, when the service at once commenced. The prayers were read by the Key. C. M. Nelson, chaplain to the Bishop, and after singing the 100 th Psalm, His Lordship ad dressed the Volunteers present, taking for his text the character of Pontius Pilate, as depicted in the second lesson for the morn ing service. He showed that the fearful sin ! of Pilate arose solely from lack of moral courage, and enlarged upon the necessity of this virtue, without which no man could be a true Christian. The Bishop touched upon several matters which he considered hinged upon the exercise of moral courage, and urged upon his hearers the importance of earning and sustaining for themselves as a body a high moral character. He condemned the practice of " shouting," and the too preva lent custom of an expenditure beyond a man's means. Throughout the whole of big in teresting addre»s he was listened to atten tively, and the service was concluded soon after half-past ten o'clock. The men were then reformed in companies, and marched by fours along Symonds-street, through the barracks, and thence to their parade ground, the bands playing selections of martial music on the route, after which they were dismissed. A large number of persons were attracted to the vicinity of the church, and followed the Volunteers on the short march afterwards. A meeting of the Ball Committee was held on Saturday evening, at the Northern Club, when several names were added to the com mittee, and additional arrangements made in view of the forthcoming ball. A meeting of the ball committee will be held in the strangers'room «f the Northern Club afc half-past seven o'clock this evening.
