Mr Bees was aorry, but said it was un avoidable as the defendant was about going away. Mr George Fraser proved the facts as laid forth in the information. He said that when the defendant first absented him self he pleaded that he felt unwell in con • sequence of having been vaccinated. The agreement was then tendered as evidence ; but objected to by Mr Joy, as the agreement had been drawn up under the Master and Apprentices' Act, whereas these proceedings were taken under the Master and 4 Servants' Act. The docu ~~"^ment was also unstamped. .Ai After hearing the evidence and counsel the Court decided that there could be no doubt that the defendant was an appren tice ; his indentures declared him as such, but the information described him as a labourer. The Court could not con vict tinder these circumstances; the case must be dismissed. There was another charge against the accused of a similar nature which Mr Bees proposed to go on with, but Mr Joy urged that the same decision applied to that, and it was agreed to withdraw it ■with a view to take further proceedings in another form. The Court said it would be as well to explain to the prisoner that on a convic tion he would be liable to an imprison ment of three months with hard labour, and the Court would advise him to go back to his employment. He was then discharged. This concluded the business.

THE CITY HALL.

The London Star Comique Company will open this evening for a season at the City Hall. Mr Harry Rickards carries good cre dentials of his power to please, and is sure to be well welcomed in Auckland. He is de scribed as the greatest comic singer in the world, and has had the honor of appearing several times before the heir apparent to the British throne. Miss Carrie Rickards, as a very pleasing serio • comic singer, wil 1 also make her debut before an Auckland public to-night. The evening's amusement will be diversified by the tenor vocalism ol Mr Henry Hallam, and the best efforts of the deputy of Madame Sanderson, who un fortunately was forced to remain behind at Sydney through indisposition.

MR W. RYAN'S BENEFIT.

TjllS evening the popular comedian, Mr W. Ryan, will take a benefit at the Prince of Wales Theatre, and we trust that the play going portion of the public ■will show their appreciation of his services by giving him a bumper ' house. The " Miser's Doom," a sensational and romantic drama in two acts, containing some highly sensational tableaux, will be performed, in which Mr Rvan will take the leading character. This will be fol lowed by a musical interlude. Songs will be given by Mr Vragnizan, Mr Barry, Master Willie, and Edward Eyan, a lady amateur, and a duet by a lady and gentleman just arrived from England ; Irish jig in character by Mr Hooper and Mrs Ryan, and a sailor's hornpipe by Mr Williams. After this the great sensation act in the play of the " Octo roon" will be presented, to be succeeded by the farce of "Taming a Tiger," by three gentleman amateura. A distribution of prizes will conclude the rjerformance. Mr Ryan has always done his best to amuse the nublic, and is & most deserving actor. We hope to see a large attendance on the occasion of his efit to-night.

On Thursday last, says the Sydney Herald of the 31st ult., a deputation from the Presbytery of Sydney, consisting of the Rev. James Cosh, M.A., moderator, the Key B S Paterson, clerk, and Dr John Moon, elder, waited upon the Hon. the Postmaster-General, and presented a petition which had been agreed to by the Presbytery, praying that steps might be taken with a view of preventing the desecration of the Lord's day by the opening of the English mails, and by the departure of the mail steamer on Sabbath mornings. The deputation represented that a continuance of the present arrange ments would have a very demoralising effect upon the community. Mr Lloyd replied that steps had already been taken to moderate as much as possible the evils pointed out by preventing all unnecessary labour being performed on the Sabbath day, and that the Government had now under consideration the question of altering the time so as to avoid the depar ture of the mail steamer on Sundays. The deputation thanked the Postmaster- General for his courteous reception, and withdrew.

Sydney papers say that the Hero (s.) was released from quarantine on the morning of the 19th ult, after having been detained forty-two days. She was towed up to the wharf by the steam tug Goolwa, the band on board the Hero, belonging to Bachelder's Panorama, playing f See the conquering Hero comes," and "Johnny comes marching home again," alternately all the way up the harbour, A large number of people, friends of the passengers, were waiting on the wharf to welcome them after their long detention. The Hero left again for Melbourne the same after noon.

At a Sunday-school in Eipon, a teacher asked a little boy if he knew what the expression " sowing tares" meant. — Gourth I does," said he, pulling the seat of his trowsera round in front • ' there's a tear my ma sewed ; I teared it when I was sliding down hill."
