THE AUCKLAND MARKET-HOUSE.

LAYING OF THE FOUNDATION STONE.

THIS AFTERNOON,

The long-anticipated possession of a, Market hoiise in Auckland is at length on the eve of being enjoyed. Hope on tha subject has been so long deferred that citizens had almost ceased to look for its realization. The event however whioh has this afternoon taken place in the Market-square must revive the tope, and we are warranted in anticipating that ere a few months will have passed we shall have a Market-house, if not of the most imposing character, at least of a kind admirably suited to our requirements, afford inga centralpointtowhich supplyand demand in agricultural produce may converge, and which will unquestionably be regarded as a symbol and bond of xmion between town and a <x; >«^. The new Market-house, of which t^ *p stone was laid to-day, will be aXj^Aoly situated for the purposes intended. At the upper end of the main business Btreet of the city, at the point to which converge the principal entrances to the city, opposite the junction of Wakefield-street, Upper Queen-street, Grey-street, and Cook street, and bounded on the other sides by Albert-street and Wellesley-street,- this new institution could not find in Auckland another location presenting equal facilities for access; and if its management is only equal to its situation the new Market cannot fail to be productive of the utmost convenience and ad vantage to residents in both town andcountry. As is generally known, the structure to day commenced is not intended to be very ornate or extravagant in its pretensions. Its main object is shelter, and to afford the sim plest and most suitable means for exposing the produce intended to be sold. The build ing is to be formed pi corrugated iron on wooden framing, and is to be cruciform. Its length from Queen to Albert-streets will be 194 feet, and from Cook to Wellesley -streets 274 feet. The total width, of the building will be 51 feet, a roadway 25 feet in width running down the centre with stalls on each side twelve feet wide. The height of the main building will be 22 feet from the floor to the wall-plates. The building will con tain 48 stalls, each 12 feet square, exclusive of one-fourth of the whole Market-house, which is to be fitted up with tables for the sole use of country settlers. A handsome fountain will play in the centre of the build ing. A roadway for carts will run around the outside of the Market-house 35 feet wide, and the structure will be supported on 300' piles. Nothing could have been more beautiful and suitable than the weather for such a ceremony. At every entrance to the future market a line of flags merrily waving in the breeze gave picturesque animation to the scene. The citizens being freed from the cares of business by the anniversary of the birthday of His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, and having generally returned from the various scenes of pleasure-seeking, thronged in great numbers towards the Market square, and shortly after the hour fixed for the ceremony, half-past three, there was a very large crowd of interested spectators around the centre of operations. His Worship the Mayor arrived on the ground accompanied by his Honor the Superinten dent, Joseph May, Esq., Deputy-Superin tendent ; H. H. Lusk, Esq., Provincial Secretary; J. Sheehan, Esq., Goldfields Secretary ; Councillors Hobbs, Prime, T. Williams, J. Cosgrave. Messrs. Every McLean, Major Walmsley,* Messrs Bassett, -Bollard, Woodward, Robert son, John Wallace, James Wallace, R. Bent, and a number of country settlers. Messrs Mackay, • George, F. Brodie, Town Clerk ; Mr Anderson, City Surveyor ; and other officers of the Council. A grand stand had been erected for the ladies, and was- occupied by fair citizenesses, whose pretty animated faces, and brilliant dresses and tossing plumes and lively merry fascinating ways gave additional in terest and eclat to the day's event. There was a grand muster of our men-at arms, the Volunteers having marched in from the Review and formed into a square, re presenting the protecting care vouchsafed by Power to the arts of peace. The police force also mustered in number, and lent the favour of their countenance to the new temple of commerce. After due honor had been given' to the event by the inspiriting strains of martial music, and l all present had shaken themselves into place and assumed the attitude of solemnity becoming the occasion the contrac" tor presented a massive and neatly chased silver trowel to his Worship the Mayor, the manufacture of Mr Heinrich Kohn, of .Queen street, and in a few appropriate words re quested his Worship to perform the cere mony of laying the foundation stone of the- first Auckland Market-house. His Worship, addressing himself to the assembled crowd, thanked the contractor for the trowel, and expressed the pleasure he felt that during his term of Mayoralty he should have the welcome task of laying the founda tion stone of the long talked an* much required Market-house, and which he sincerely trusted would meet' all the views and wishes of the country settlers and townsfolk, and become a source of pleasure and mutual profit to both. The Corporation were desirous of doing all they could to cement the feeling which ought to exist between town and country, and he hoped the bringing of the producer and the consumer in closer and more profitable communication would tend to do so. His Worship then gave the par ticulars of the dimensions of the new Market; he also alluded to the idea many persons en tertained that the Market would not pay. He showed, however, the citizens were ear nest in their desire to help it, by willingly taxing themselves some hundreds per annum for many years. Whether it became a success or no, if it should be the first market that was not generally considered a succ^ss^, then he had gone through the preliminary stages because we had a Market many years since at the bottom of- Shortland-street, but which failed from many reasons which do not exist now. One great requirement was a poultry and game market, and the public would have the satisfaction of know ing that stringent regulations would be in existence to prevent unwholesome food from being sold, and that all goods sold by weight would have to be.certified to by the market keeper or his assistant. Water and draining would be well attended to, and it was satis " itory to know there was plenty of room to Mp Srease any accommodation that may be re <B^' ired, and the Corporation would be. glad li the country settlers would make sugges tions as to their requirements from time to time. In conclusion his Worship said from previous work the contractor had done for the Council he had every confidence he would finish the building in contract time, and trusted all present might be spared to re joice in the completion of a long required necessity. His Honor the Superintendent made a brief and appropriate speech congratulating his Worship on. the honor of the task just per formed. C.ieera were given for the Royal Family, Superintendent, Mayor, &c, the band playing appropriate music. Mr Philips, having received the implement of the craft, proceeded to spread the mortar in a manner reflecting the highest credit on his skill in that parti,

I outer department of human industry. But first he laid in the cavity, with all the solemnity befitting the occasion, a phial con taining records of the times, which will tell to a far off posterity the state of civilization to which our citizens, had attained. It con tained besides the coin current of the realm from the lowest minted up • through all varieties to a sovereign—also copies of i this morning's Daily Southern Cross, and j New Zealand Herald, last Saturday's J 'Evening Star, and this day's isstie of the same, i the outer page only being printed. There | was also contained a parchment scroll, very | beautifully written by Mi? Palmer, and having the following legend :—* " The Foundation Stone of the Auckland Market was laid by His Worship the Mayor, P. A. Philips, Esq., on Monday, the 11th of November, Anno Domini 1872. Tricesimo I Sexto, Victoria Hegince. Sir G. B. Bowen, X.C.8., Governor of the Colony ; T. B. Gillies, Esq., Superintendent of the Pro vince. '' The following are the names of the City Councillors in office at the time.: —Henry Isaacs, Esq. ; Richard Hobbs, Esq. ; F. L, Prime, Esq. ; Stannus Jones, Esq. ; Thos. Williams, Esq. ; John Cosgrave, Esq. ; W, J. Hurst, Esq. ; J. M. Dargaville, Esq. ; George Holdship, Esq. '' This Building is erected by the City Corporation at a cost of £3,500. " Architect, Wm. Anderson, City Sur veyor ; Contractor and Builder, M. Donaher. " (Signed) Phillip A.Philips, Mayor. " F. Bkodie, Town Clerk." After the bottle containing the articles indi cated had been placed in the cavity and closed in with cement, the covering-stone was lowered into its place and adjusted. His Worship gave the recognised and legiti mate knocks to discover that everything was right, and being convinced that there was no I flaw in either the material or the workman ship, officially declared that the foundation stone of the Auckland Market-house was well and truly laid. The ceremony in connection : with the living of the stone having been completed, a large company adjourned from labour to refreshment at the Oddfellows' Hall, where an elegant collation had been prepared under the superintendence of Mr. Canning and his staff. His Worship the Mayor ocdfcpied the chair, supported by His Honor the' Superintendent on*the right, and by Mr. Albyn Martin on the left. The two vice chairs were occupied by Mr. Yon der Heyde and Mr. Donaher, the contractor. A very large number sat down together, and "as we go to press the interesting pro ceedings are going on with great animation.

REED '& BRET T' S AUCKLAND ALMANAC HOUSEHOLD GUIDE, STRANGERS' "vADE MECUM Job 1873. WE beg to intimate that we are engaged in the compilation of an Almanac for the Province of Auckland for the year 1873, which will be issued early in December of the present year. Without reflecting on .any previous productions m this special field of literature,'we believe that we can produce a work that will meet the wants of the residents in the city and province to an extent not yet 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 promising that it will find its way into more households1 and offices, and»jniore 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 bur 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 best advertising 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 may be practicable, in other parts of the C°Mr H.
