CO RRESPONDENCE.

MR TROLLOPE. (To the Editor of the EVENING Star.) Sir, —I was rather surprised, and very much amused, this morning upon reading in the Baity Son/Item Cross the report of the banquet given to Mr A. Trollope, and especially so as no " chiel " was among the company taking notes. It appears strange that the Press of Auckland should have been over-looked upon this occasion. Not one of the public journals was represented at the banquet, and the great novelist's speech in consequence was incorrectly reported; dressed uji and furnished probably by a " 'prentice, hand." I have been told that it emanated from the obliging waiter who gave so much satisfaction at the table. But whether such be the truth or not, I think, sir, that the Press should have been represented at a banquet given to our distinguished visitor, whose profession, as a man of letters, places him very near to us. —Yours, &c, John Plum.

COURTS OF LAW AND JUSTICE IN AUCKLAND.

(To the Editor of the Evening Stab.) Sir,—The unsatisfactory administration of justice in the Courts of this province has been frequently brought under the n< >tice of the Governments, and again last week in the House of Assembly at Wellington the sub ject was most forcibly and truthfully nrged, especially as regards the opinions of the natives, who declare that the Courts were made to take their lands. The blame for such a disastrous state of affairs has been generally attributed to imperfect legislation, or to badly drawn up Acts of Parliament; but while admitting that there never was in any British community such just grounds for complaining of the frequent miscarriage of justice ill the Courts, 1 feel sure that there never was a greater fallacy than that of wholly blaming the Legislature as the cause. It is quite true that much mischief has been done by unprincipled lawyers taking ad vantage of Acts of Parliament passed in. the early days of the colony for the protection of natives, and for these Acts of Parliament the -Legismuuc 10 v*, i-~ Warned, but for years past nothing lias been clearer to ivy mind than that to certain lawyers who un fortunately arrived in Auckland, and have made it the scene of their unscrupulous operations, nearly all the evils complained of can be traced. In fact I believe that there are in Auckland some members of the legal profession quite as dangerous to its well being as weve the most venal members of the notorious New York "Tammany Ring" to the prosperity of that city. A moderate amount of enquiry will establish that melancholy fact, and will also show that in most of the discreditable cases which have inflicted so great an amount of injustice on innocent individuals, these very lawyers have invariably appeared on the side of dishonesty ; and further, that in the getting up or manag ing these diabolical cases the active agency of these lawyers or their Pakeha-Maori clerks or accomplices will be made manifest. It is not therefore surprising that the natives assert that the Courts have been made merely to deprive them of their lands ; for there is no denying the fact that legal harpies have induced the natives to rush into Court with cases which have ended in the lawyers' costs absorbing the entire value of the lands. The unfortunate native has also been made use of by professional knaves, who, in too many in stances, have gained causes through native evidence, which had been falsely taught the natives as truth, and which he had been induced to give in Court. It is really dis tressing to know that there are men in our midst, wearing the garb of an honourable profession, who are ever on the look-out to assist and encourage the most nefarious pro ceedings, and till these men are got rid of there can be no hope for the security of property in Auckland. Surely some steps should be taken by the public to break up the "Auckland Legal Tammany King."—l am, &c, A Victim.

POLICE COURT.

THIS DAY. (Before. Messrs T. Ritchie and G. M. Mit ' ford, Justices of the Peace.) DRUNKENNESS. One drunkard was fined five shillings and costs, and Margaret Condron, a very old offender, charged under the Vagrancy Act with habitual drunkenness, pleaded hard for forgiveness, as she said she was a poor lone woman, and if their Worships would only let her off her husband and children would sup port her. She obstinately refused to plead, and the case was proved against her, the old dame groaning and wailing all the time. Inspector Brohani informed the Court that it was useless being lenient, she having been repeatedly before the Court since 1859. The Court sentenced her to three months' hard labour. William Soloman, better known as Te Kooti, pleaded not guilty to having been drunk and disorderly. The charge was proved and he was lined five shillings and costs. Ellis Jones was similarly charged, also with aß&o.ialting police Constable Hutchenson while in tnj execution of his duty. inspector Broham described the prisoner as '' one of those wretched loafers who infest the town." The prisoner objected to the term. Fined twenty shillings and cost for the first offence, and sentenced to one month's im prisonment with hard labour for the assault on the constable. THE ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE. John Connell was again brought up charged with endeavouring to kill and murder him self. He was discharged on a suitable ad monition being administered. ASSAULTS. John Brady was charged with assaulting his wife Mary. The case was withdrawn. Richard Sandall, butcher, Wakefield-street, was charged with violently assaulting Michael Skerry by striking him on the head with a butcher's knife,

Mr Bennett prosecuted, and Mr Joy defended.

The complainant deposed to tho assault, Which appeared from his evidence to have been quite unprovoked. Witnesses were called pro and con; A cross-summons was then heard, and Sandall contradicted the other's statement, but admitted that he "lethim have it." Hp persisted in repeating in Court certain strong words alleged to have been made use of until reproved. He also conducted himself im pertinently towards counsel.

The Court dismissed both cases This concluded the business.

Last night a ball was given in a public room in Hobson-street to a select company including several of the elite of the city. The occasion was the anticipated departure of one of the company by tho Nebraska, and a large number of friends aud asso ciates assembled to do honour to the occasion. Space does not permit our giving a detailed account of the costumes of the company, which in many cases were severely simple in accordance with the well known apothegm " Nature unadorned is adorned the most." In fact it seems the ball was intended to be en deshabille, and accordingly the ladies did not dress for the occasion, many of the gentlemen having in a similar manner acquiesced in tho spirit of the evening. In fact there was a total avoidance of anything1 that ; could be interpreted as. mere convention alism, and perfect abandon characterised the proceedings. Several gentlemen, after having joined in the complimentary i banquet to the literary celebrity now1* leaving our shores under the genial influences of the club-room, joined the ball, and contributed greatly to the, enjoj'ments of the occasion. We have been furnished with the names of all the ladies and gentlemen present, together wiih a minute description of their several

costumes on the occasion, but as the ball was intended to be private we refrain publishing the particulars. Dancing, alternating with various other amuse ments, was kept up till an advanced hour of the morning, but the enjoyments were ruddy interrupted by the simultaneous entrance of two detectives by two separate doors, which was followed by the precipi tate flight in all directions of the fair demseuses and their companions. This unexpected event brought the proceedings to an abrubt conclusion.

" Man wants but little here below, nor wants that little long," is a libel ; man wants everything he can see, or hear ov, and never is willing to let go of hiz grab. Whenever you find a man who thoroughly satisfied with what he haz got, yu will find either an ideot, or one who haz tried hard to get some more and couldn't do it. The older a man grows the more wantful he bekums ;as hiz hold on life slackens hiz pinch en a dollar grows grippy.—[Josh Billings.

Mosgiel Tweeds, of Otago manufacture, are now in" demand in the London market. They area decided novelty, and excellent quality ; and yet at a distance of l,(i<iO miles from the place twhere they are produced, and from the people whose interest and i>rofit it is to prefer the home production to the imported article, their excellence is discerned and appreciated before we uraiu,. "■"-"« nassiny notion oil the child of our own industry. Truly a Prophet hath no nonoi l.i i,: o own country : but it is not " colonial" to " sneeze at" a profit. The time lias come when the nether extremities of every New Zealand man and boy should bo clothed in stuff of the home production. Samuel Coombes has just received a parcel of the above Tweeds from tin; manufactory, and not only hopes that they will be extensively" sought for, but expects every public spirited man to " go in " for at least one pair of Mosgiel Tweed Trousers.
