The members of the Chamber of Commerce Jiave siiggested a memorial to improve the bankruptcy laws, ami express a hope . that important measures will not again be sacrificed to party politics.

SERIOUS ACCIDENT ON THE WAIKATO RAILWAY.

accident of a serious nature occurred yesterclay on the works of the Waikato railway to * man named Casshen. It ap pears that Casshen was employed on the railway, a short distance from Papakura bridge, -when a considerable quantity of earth fell upon the unfortimate man, j and nearly buried him. With much difficulty Casshen was taken out of the earth, when it was found that his collar-bone was broken, and that he was severely bruised. Dr. Goldsboro was immediately sent for, and having ren dered the necessary assistance had the man conveyed to the Provincial Hospital, where he now lies, ./

MEETING OF SHAREBROKERS.

THIS DAY. Ax ' extraordinary meeting of sharebrokers wais held this afternoon to consider the wor;k r ing of the new Stamp Act. Mr J. M. Lennox occupied the chair, and read the clause (25) of the Bill relating to Bharebrokers. - He, ,«Eged that the Act was unworkable and ,/very objectionable to charebrokers, especially in this clause,, in which it enacted that "no instrument of. sale or transfer of any. share or,shares shall be valid, either, at law or in equity, unless the name of the purchaser or transferee shall be inserted therein at the time of or. before the signing or execution of the instrument of sale or transfer. Mr Tonson Garlick proposed that a com mittee, consisting of Messrs Dv Moulin, Smith, Newman, Aitken, and the mover, be appointed to wait on Mr'-Vogel .on his arrival in Auckland and .confer with him in. relation to this clause m the Act. i The resolution was secoride'd by Mr Walker, .and carried unanimously. Mr Newman suggested that in case Mr' Vogel should be detained at Wellington a memorial should be drawn up'to the Govern ment urging that the clause of Act,being un-. workable, foe suspended, j,' .. This was agreed to by the meeting. | A motion^ was also agreed to that a tele gram be sent to the Colonial Treasurer in forming him of the resolution of the meeting, and requesting him to ask the Governor to suspend the operation of the Act pending the arrival of the memorial from ,;the licensed sharebrokers. .._ ■ ; t -,

Mr Garlick moved, '' That the Thames; Sharebrokers' Association be communicated ■within order that it may co>-operate with the Auckland brokers in the matter.

The Chairman th ought that the meeting ought to come to" some arrangement to carry out the Act as nearly in its integrity as possi ble in the meanwhile.

Some discussion took place concerning the high rate of transfer fep chargedJaj^fi|4^

companies.be waited on and requested to re duce the fee to one shilling. Opinions were divided on the subject. Ultimately, ■ Mr Tonson Garlick proposed that an asso ciation be formed the same as at Shortland, and the matters referred to stand in abey ance. ... This was agreed to. Other business of a formal nature having been settled the meeting separated.

RETURN OF THE PHŒBE DISABLED.

The s.s.. Phoebe left Onehunga yesterday afternoon for Taranaki and the South. At () p.m., before the vessel hail cleared the Manakau Heads, the holt of the connecting rod broke and carried away the top of the after cylinder, putting all the machinery out of gear and rendering the vessel helpless. Within ten minutes after the occurrence the captain and officers, with praiseworthy promptitude, had all sail hoisted, and made for a small bay off the Blow Hole, where they anchored at 7 o'clock for the night. At 5 a.m. this morning they disconnected the screw, and returned safely to Onehunga wharf. The passengers desire to express their thankfulness to the captain and officers" for their promptness and energy under difficulties. Had the steamer been outside the Heads it would have been impossible to have returned, and shows the necessity of at once erecting a telegraph to the Manukau Heads, so that similar accidents may be communicated and help afforded. The Wellington was lying at the Onehunga wharf yesterday ; but had the Phoebe have drifted out to sea for want of communication no assistance could have been rendered. ; .

The Presbyterian Church at Wangare was crowded on the recent occasion of Mr Brock's descriptive lecture on the Holy Land, which gave general satisfaction. We have great pleasure in stating, for the information and satisfaction of the share holders in the " Auckland and North Shore Steam Ferry Company (Limited)," that their new boat— the " Takapuha " — will be launched from Mr Niccol's yards, with all the honors, to-morro-\v evening, at live o'clock. We are also very glad to say that the Messrs Holmes have kindly laid on a boat at half-past four from Auckland, by which shareholders and others will be en abled to see the launch and return at six, at no increase on the usual fares. The ma chinery for the Takxipuna is coming" by the Coronet and is hourly expected. The steamer will be ready for work on her contract time (10th December), and she will be a beauty.

Like her husband, Lady Pee), who was one of the most beautiful women of her day, sprang directly from the " common people," her father, General Floyd, hav ing begun life as a private soldier, and subsequently risen gradually to the high grade in his profession, and a baronetcy, solely % by his own merit. Her ladyship was the model of a wife and a mother, aidmanaged, as none but a loving wife C«u i manage, those moody fits which an ove *rouf>ht b.-ain and an exquisite organ heA nervous system sometimes brought uOh the great statesman. Ido not allude fan© t1 any disturbance of the nsental fac\lti# , were strong and healthy to the last, but to the solitary attempts to sub ■due in to tranquillity the tortured nerves ancLbeating heart whijh might have been but recently, wounded by the taunts of implicable Opponents. I have been, told i that the late .Sir .Robert Pe< 1 has often ccme home from theliouse bf Commons at, perhaps, two o'clock in the morning, after having been excoriated by Disraeli and bruised by Bentinck, and has remained for twelve hour's Vh"nt up in his library a prey j to mental agony. At such a time no one durst venture to approach him, and it was Lady Peel herself who would quietly steal in, place some refreshment on the table, and then glide out as silently as she had entered, waiting patiently until the dreaded mood had passed away, and her | husband could listen to the words of con- / solation and of comfort which this most ' affectionate of wives was always ready to j pour into his ear. There never was in any rank of life a more attached or better I suited couple, and every one who knew anything about the family felt that when the one was so suddenly taken from i amongst us, the other would ; not long ; remain behind. The beautiful," accom plished, and virtuous Lady Peel, in short, died of a broken heart, the measure of.her sorrow for her illustrious husband being filled to overflowing by the subsequent loss of her heroic and world, famous son. Let us drop a tear over the graves of these two noble children of the ''com mon people," who, in their loves and in their lives, have so justified the noble lines of the poet- — , . "'Howe'er it-be, it seems to me, ; 'Tis only noble to be good, Kind hearts are more than coronets, . o .And simple faith than Norman blood." The boating men in Christchurch are getting up & bazaar and ball, in aid of the funds of the Canterbury and Heathcote rowing clubs. ; . A London letter to the New York Mail says ;t-" It is a genuine sign of Mr. Disraeli's popularity that the whole town was glad to read the contradiction of Lady Beaconfield's alarming illness. But if Her Ladyship has not been exactly ill she has nevertheless sustained ja .severe shock; Very .recently, when-on a. visit to'a friend, she felt a weakness sjn tb.9; arm, and on examining the. sensitive part, it was found that a vein, had' burst and that some loss of blood had already ensued This was all; butthe incident' Vas>of ; a: nature to justify apprehension, jandnto account, for the sinisier rumors, which speedily got into circulation; especially' when it is remembered that -fieri Lady-, ship is upwards of eighty years 6f ;j age,' and therefore^ fifteen or sixteen years older than, her husband. Mr. Disraeli's conjugal devotion is so, well known that little need, be said on that1 Subje-ct. A lady once congratulated him up:on. Ms : great affection for his wife. His;answer was as .trus; as it was delicately.,s^xpres sed :' I ought to be fond of:her, for!I owe everything to her.' XJoder any circum stances he is a man who,would have;made his.mar t k as:a politician and a autheir, but without his wife's, fortune he mjjgh't still have been struggling ; for a plajse jn the i second official rank of! (#e{, ■ Gonsertative party. f If all his.detractors say of him be trix , he has yet his qualities which render him far more attractive than many men of more "saintly renown, Very good men are sometimes very cruel or very canting, but Mr, Disraeli is not a "f +1-" 7-dfcii^i—lX""" i

1 The returns of the sales of the different sewing machines, during the year .1871, show the Singer machine to be by far the most popular of all in the market, the number sold bfting 181,260, but of a total of 610,194 of twenty-five different patterns. It appears, too, that the Chicago Belief Committee, which undertook to furnish sewing machines to persons needing - them, f supplied ; 2;427 , Singer machines against 517 of' all other kinds. This preference for the Singer machine is due to its intrinsic superiority, and seems likely to be maintained against all competition.— New York Sun.

PRICE—ONE SHILLING. REED & BRET T-'.S AUCKLAND ALMANAC HOUSEHOLD GUIDE, AND STRANGERS' VADE MEGUM Fob 1873. WE beg to intimate that we are engaged in the compilation of an Al?nanac for he Province of Auckland for the year 1873, which will be issued early in December of the present yeai\ Without reflecting on any previous productions in this special iield of iitcrature, wo believe that .we can I produce a work that will meet the wants of the residents in the city and i>rovince to an extent not yet j attained by any local Almanac. It is not our .wish to define the points on which our Almanac will base its claims to supersede other local Almanacs, but we feel confidence in iDromising that it will find its way into more households and offices, and more nearly attain to the correct ideal of a Provincial " Book " Almanac than anything of the kind that has yet been sub mitted to the public of Auckland. T\e information contained will be, extensive and carefully compiled, and the literary portion of the work will be executed in a manner that will satisfy the most fastidious, while our extensive and varied assort ment of new and ornamental type, and the advantages of our steam printing .machinery will enable us to produce a volume that for neatness and cheapness is not likely to be equalled in the district. We can therefore confidently recommend this Annual as affording the beat advuHisinrj medium.' Although the first year of issue'the numerous agencies and correspondents of the Evening Star 'will provide a medium for bringing the work immediately into contact with residents in :every part of the province, and, as far as maybe practicable, in other parts of the colony. ■ .i Mb. 11.
