Holdship we failed to set eyes. Mr King also appeared to rely on liis avowed princi ples which have appeared in black and white, and has not thought it worth while to take a trot out in order to show his form. Nor have we seen Mr Dargaville in the vicinity ; he, too, is confident of success. During the the day a brisk trade has been driven, the " k'rict cards of the race, "emanating from a well-known "mine host," giving colors, pedigree, and weight of each animal entered for the race. Amongst those who went up to recorcltheirvotes we observed the ex-candidate, who mechanically polled for his more fortu nate friends. As time wore on greater anxiety and excitement reigned, and the threatened rush was looked for at three o'clock, burt .no rash came. Great amuse meiit.gM} aused in the afternoon by the eniW*mr ' of a guardian of the peace to cond\ict a drunken man to the sta tion who had thrown himself down amongst the bystandei'S, and refused to proceed. To the astonishment of all, out i-ushed Mr GreenaAvay (the admitted richest man in New Zealand), and offered his as sistance, so that by the united efforts of the policeman and himself the Bacchanalian was safely lodged in durance vile. Betting was spirited during the day, but to give quota tions would be almost impossible, as different partizans appeared to put such absurd prices on their favorities. As an instance we might mention that a gentleman was about to take 400 to 1 in sovereigns from a well-known jeweller that the People's Champion would not be placed—when our reporter left. Towards four o'clock the bashfulness that was depicted in some of the candidates had worn off, and they were all to be found out side the booth speculating on their individual chances. By this time several hundred had assembled, and affairs began to wear a lively aspect. At four o'clock the doors closed, with an intimation that the result of the poll would not be declared until past five o'clock. There were, of course, one or two late-comers who lost their chance of voting. From close observation of the voting during the day we may mention that the most likely candidates are Messrs. Hurst, Dargaville, and Stephenson. The result will be given in a second edition.

"RIGG'S DIGEST OF METHODISM."

We have received and perused the second edition, just issued from the press, of "A Digest of the Laws and Regulations of the Australasian Wesleyan Connexion by the Rev. C. W. Rigg." To members and ad herents of the Wesleyan communion this work must be really invaluable ; Avhile, to those outside of Wesleyanism, but interested in the advancement of Christianity, it will be of exceeding interest to see here revealed the secret springs of a machinery that, perhaps, before all others in modern times, has been successful in bringing the Gospel into the homes of the masses of the people. Mr. Rigg's fitness for the authorship of such an exposition of Wesleyanism is guaranteed not only by his ability and character, but by the prominent position he occupies in connexion with that communion in the colony. Any thing that is to be known in the theory and the practical working of the Wesleyan organisation should be familiar to him, and he has produced a work which, as we see, has'not only won the very strongest eulogiums from the lights of Wesleyanism at home, and from the religious press, but is particularly valuable to the colony as being intended to throw special light on the working of Wesleyanism in the peculiar cir cumstance of our colonial life. The work contains a chapter on the community of Wesleyan Methodists, in which are explained the principles and ecclesiastical practices of the denomination. There are chapters on local courts, trustee meetings, Sunday Schools, circuit office-bearers, district meet ings, the conference, the ministers, the funds of Methodism and miscellaneous matters. Taken altogether the work contains almost everything that is to be known of Wesleyanism, and in a church where the laity are privileged to take such an important part we do not hesitate to say that the volume should be in the hands of every in dividual. The " Digest of Methodism" is an exceedingly neat and handsome little volume ; it has been printed by Mr Atkin, and is pub lished by Mr. Wayte.
