estate was settled upon Mrs Overton for her separate use, and that if her husband had power to anticipate one year's rent, he had power to take twenty years' rent, and so deprive the wife of her rights ; he had no doubt it was a hardship on the defendants, but there were a great many hardships had to be endured in this world. The present case ranking among them, they would have their remedy against Mr Overton. He (his Worship), had no alternative but to give judgment for plaintiff.

COUNSELS' FEES.

he Editor of the Evening Star. Sic, —i*n your issue of Tuesday last you corrected a statement made the previous day respecting Mr J. B. Kussell having received £2 2s professional fee while Mr Joy could only obtain an order in a Tery similar case in the same Court for £1 Is. Your correction "was to the effect that "on enquiry you found that there was no scale of costs fixed, but that those allowed in the R.M. Court were taken as a, precedent." Now, sir, you will allow me to state that you are in error with regard to this matter, and that no precedent has been hitherto consistently followed either by tho Justices of the Peace or yet by his Worship the Mayor. It is indeed high time that the question of solicitors' fees in the Police Court should be determined, both in justice to the solicitors and to the clients whom they represent. There are no such anomalies to be met with in the Courts in the old country as are of so frequent occurrence in the Auckland Courts; and certainly you would not there hear of a defendant in an assault case having less to pay than the informant, though the assault should have been proved ; nor of a solicitor being allowed two guineas in city rates claims under £5 where another solicitor who supports a claim within a few shillings of £20 in the same Court is only allowed by the same magistrate £1 Is! —Yours, &c, JNe Cbde Masio.

To the Editor of the Evening Stab. Sic, —In your leader yesterday evening you Bay —" It seems apparent that by some of the Agents of the U.K.A. a •wholesale system of the most bare-faced forgery has been pursued !" We thank you for your plain spoken leader, not only for the portion we quote, but for the whole of it. We were two of the can vassers who canvassed a portion of the •üburbs for signatures ; we handed in our portion of the petition (with one thousand three hundred andseventy-six names) between nine and ten o'clock on the evening preceding the dey it was presented. We challenge any person to show us one forgery on our sheets, i.e., one name that is there without the authority of the person. We will conduct any person to the residence of any whose names appear on our sheets, or to a witness or witnesses who saw them sign the petition. The L.V.A. states that "no incossiderable number of children have been signed for." Our challenge extends to this portion also. If there are two or more names alike on our eheets we will take any person to as many different persons a9 the name appears different times. We will give our districts, so that those interested may the more easily search our sheets :—West side Grey street, ditto of Pitt street, along Beresford street, Day street, Howe street, Hepburn street, into Ponsonby road, east side of Ponsonby road from Hepburn street to Collingwood street, along Collingwood street to Wellington street, along Sheridan street down to Union street, and up to Pitt street, all the streets, &c, included in that radius; also, east side Princes and Symonds streets to Kyber Pass road, on towards Newmarket, Brighton, Conquest Place, Parnell, Mechanics' bay, Official bay, up to Princes street (east side), all the streets, &C, in that radius; these were our boundaries. We believe all the other col lectors will be able to explain any apparent irregularity in their sheets. There is a letter in to-day's Herald signed "E. O. Nichols, hon. sec." He appears to have forgotten to mention the difference between the sheets that were signed for presentation to the Q-eneral Assembly and those for presentation to the Justices of the Peace. The difference is this. The sheets for presentation to the J.P.'a have a double column of names on them, those for the GhA. have one column of names, the other being reserved for addresses. If, therefore, a mistake has beon made by inserting one of these sheets, the addresses will appear in another column ; but if there are duplicates with two columns of names ive hope that it may be traced to the guilty parties, and that they will be punished as they deserve.—Caleb Eobinsojt, Eamiira Le Koy.

THE PETITION TO THE LICENSING BENCH. To the Editor of the Evening Star. Sib, —In reference to that portion of the advertisement of the Licensed Victuallers' Association which ha 3 reference to certain names on sheet 7, and which are repeatod on sheet 10, I beg to Bfcate that as the Auckland Alliance simultaneously promoted two peti tions relative to the Liquor Traffic —one to the Bench of Magistrates and the other to the General _ Assembly— it is evident that an unintentional mistake has occurved in mis placing the duplicate sheet on the local petition instead of attaching it to that for the General Assembly. The only other points to which 1 will allude are the assertion that " no inconsiderable number of children" have signed the.Petition, and also that a few persons have signed twice. The first allegation is simply untrue, and that the latter may be correct, owing to some of the canvassers going, presumedly, beyond their allotted boundaries, but which fact was unknown to the Committee prior to tho presentation of the Petition, and which repetitions are to be regretted.—l am, E.
