The Engineer's Report on Southern Rrllways.

WELLINGTON,

This day,

Tbe report of the Engincer-in-chicf on railways estimates the revenue from the ITelson and Foxhill railway at eight thousand and tho working expenses at seven thousand. The traffic on the J-'ne he states will almost depend entirely on timber. £2,110 are expected from passen gers. He considers it quite hopeb ito look for the worV;ugexi :rsrn of the Kaiapoi and Eyreton Eailway, which -w.'ll not be lc~s than from two to t>**ee thousand a year. The Pacecourse and South Bridge Rail way will pay a dividend in addition to working expenses. The Eakaia and Ashbur ton line runs through poor shingly soil, unfit for cultivation. He estimates that the Oa maru and Coleridge di stri cts wdl yield a pas - senger revenue of £3(73, and freight £14C3, which is equal to the working expenses of the Ashburton and Timaru railway. It wi'l also open a district containing IC-,000 acres of cultivated land. It is estimated that the revenue will reach £4.3,000 a-year, and the expenditure £28,000, leaving a net revenue'of £15,0 1 3. The Waitaki and Moeraki railway passes through one of the be-t districts of the Middle iFland, 60,000 acres of which are under cultivation. The Engineer est;'mates the revenue _t £17,(7 \ and the working expenses at £14,000. '..he Tokomairio ?nd Lawrence Ea:iway he expects wi'l yield an annual profit of £B,C »; its working ex penses will be £10,000, and its revenue £18, C )0. The Winton to Kingston Ptail way will yield a'net profit of £7,5 Cl, and the estimated receipt £20,500. The|j Brunner coal mine railway working expenses are estimated at £4000, and it would require the production of 2.3,000 tons of cop! a year to pay working expenses. The re port of the Noiih Island ra ;iways . w?'l soon be published. ' Yesterday. The Native Minister promised to report on native affairs on the East Coast early. The following bi"s were read a first time : —Joint Stock Companies' Amendment, Municipal Corporations, Waterworks (;i re ply to Mr Murray, Mr Bathgate said the latter bill did not interfere -with the lights of the third parties), Distilct Couus Amend ment, Assaults on Constables, 'Goldm^D!*, Prisons, and Insolvency.

_$ Hauhaus Determined to Fight

GRAHAMSTOWN

This day.

The Ohinemuri correspondent of the Thames Advertiser says, that the King natives mean fighting, but want the Govern ment to commence operations. They are only waiting to see the result of Sullivan's murder, and if that is not sufficient to cause the Government to act within a certain time they will .repeat the do_e. He asserts that the state of affairs is bound to end in war, and that delay is making the natives think that we are afraid. When Paora Tuhaere visited the King, he was told to take Purukutu to Auckland and hang him, whereon he replied, " His body I will leave, but his likeness I have got, and I will take it to Auckland." Purukutu was sitting at the head of an armed company.

A CONVERTED PRIZE FIGHTER.

great; prayer meeting in whiteoiiapel. On Sunday evening, March 13, the People's Mission Hall, Whitochapel, was densely crowded by some 3,0< ') persons assemble! to hear Bendigo, thefamous prize-lighter and ex champion of England, preach, or, in Fs own words, "Fight for the Gospel." It had been previously renounced that Bendigo had been converted some six weeks or so ago by Richard Weaver, the collier, and another Bevivab'st iwm-d Dupe. Long before the doors were opened they were besieged by a large crowd of respectable persons, but is was impossible to admit rll, and many had to go away. At the commencement of the service Bendigo took his place on a long railed-off platform with his friends—Pdchard Weaver and Dupe—and some eighteen or twenty other Revivalists as advanced as themselves, and who from time to time im provised little sermons, burst into hymns set to the music of comic songs, or volunteered information as to the way their own conver sion had been brought about. A number of prizefighters were scattered throughout the audience, evidently watching their old friend. Bendigo with great curiosity. The greatest religious fervour and excitement prevailed throughout the evening, people asking each other with great interest, " Which is Bendi go ?" "0, that's him," wp- occasionally the reply, "That elderly gentleman w*th the spectacles, and dressed in black." "What, that quiet old chap the famous Bendigo ? — Well !" I fter preliminaiy prayer, Bichard Weaver read from the Bible the stoiy of the Prodigal Son, which he ex plained, " was not a Ye, which it would he if it were a parable," and applied; it, phrase by phrase, to. "dear Brother Bendy," who. rlternately sat or stood beside him. When he came-to the part, "He was dead, and is alive," Mr Dupe jumped up aid, taking Bendigo, by the hand, led off i hymn, the sole buiihen of'which was, "He is alive aga^n," Bendigo joining in with great fervour. Mr Weaver, proceeding with his application of the text to Bendigo's con version, said that the latter had been fight iug for the devil 02 years, and he would now fight on the other side. Bendigo told the audi ence that he would—said Bendigo, " Yes, I will fight heart and soul for Christ. Amen !" "He always went in for winning," said Mr Dupe, "when he was on the devil's side, but he would now go in and .win for God." "Amen, " said Bendigo* Mr Weaver said that when Bendigo's conversion became known people said„ " He would knock them all ofl' the platform," but they ' were not afraid of him. The greatest blackguard in Leicester was said to have offered £5 to get Bendy to his public-house as a "draw," and Messrs Weaver and Dupe waited on him ("And I was with you," interrupted Bendigo), and asked him if it was true. But the poor man was better than he was thought to be, and he said, "No ; God bless Bendigo, I hope he will stick to you and be saved." Some roughs were present with bull-dogs under their aims, so to do good the three converted' ones gave out a hymn, and everybody knelt down and had a most i uteres tinglprayer meeting. Everybody cried* out with emotion, " God bless Bendigo." I 'Bendigo himself, a stout, strorig-bui't man, with a squarely-shaped head, and. massive under jaw, but with spectacles on nose, dress of sober black, gold watch chain, and greyish growth of whiskers, looking placid enough, stood up to speak. No one, had they known who he was, Would have suspected that they were look ing oh the doughty prize-fighter' whose brawny fist, holding that book of gentle hymns of peace, had so often dealt smash ing blows on the faces made after God's own image. Many a bold- man has the bolder Bendy compelled to cry " a' gb," many a fierce fight has he figured in and of .many a bloody battle stoood the brunt for the glory of Nott'ngham's gentle lambs. And well .he fought for his patrons, although his tactics were of a kind ca"ed" shifty.'.' 'Tis true he used to drop without a blow, but then, in the words of one of his greatest supporters, i "He were a good man to put your money on ; he'd always pull it off right." And there he stood, ready to pull off the new fight in ' which he had so suddenly engaged. He preached with great zeal, but with, little finish. Some one in the congregation crying out "Speakup," Mr Weaver replied, "You would not speak up if you had all your teeth knocked out as Bendy has." Bendigo stated that he had been champion of the world, and now he meant to be a cham pion of Christ. Everybody in. bis old age ought to go to his Maker, " which is Christ amen !" He had carried away from London two belts and four cups, and he got a big gold watch elsewhere, which he produced and opened out so that the congregation might see it; but now he was "going in for a oroM j—amen." Such is a fair sample of his discourse, or discour_es, for there were severa 1 made off and on during the eveniDg ; It was announced that a deputation would shoitly wait on Jem Ward to interview him, and get bim to fo"ow Bendigo's example. " Prize-fighters," said Mr Weaver, " are the best men out if we can get them to fight for Christ."
