Arrival of the Hylton Castle.

The fine barque Hylton Castle, under com mand of Captain Scott, made her appearance in our waters this morning, after a passage from land to land of 96 days. The barque would undoubtedly have made a much liner passage than she has but for her having been kept beating about in the chops of the Channel for eleven days. As all are aware, the Hylton Castle is the pioneer ship of the Auckland Freight Company—a company which, from its infancy, has met with difficulties and obstructions at every step, but which, nevertheless, it has been enabled to sur mount, giving promise of a bright future and favorable prospects in store. The Hylton Castle was. loaded- in London by the firm of Galbraith, Pembroke, Stringer and Co. She is a trim and smart looking barque of 548 tons register ; was built at Sunderland in 18G9, and is classed Al at Lloyds for fourteen years. She is owned by Messrs Briggs and Co., of Sunderland, her builders. She is built of teak, and is of remarkable strength. On previous voyages she has delivered her cargoes of tea in excellent con dition, not one package being soiled. This speaks well for a vessel engaged in traffic on the great ocean highway. There is no doubt that on opening her hatches it will be found that she retains her character as a sound and dry ship — a great recommendation with shippers, especially when they have been in the habit of receiving goods from a distance of 14,000 miles, which on arrival have had the appearance of having been conveyedinbaskets instead ot ships. The Hylton Castle brings no passengers, the Whole of her room being taken up with cargo. She left the E. I. Docks on the Ist. March ; was detained two days shipping powder, of which she brings a considerable quantity. Sailed from Deal 3rd March, and encountered strong westerly gales down the Channel, by which eleven days were lost in beating out. Took her start from Ushant on the 17th March. Had moderate t>reezes from S.E. to S.W. until picking up ihe N.E. trades, which was done in lat. 33-30 N., and long 29-30 West. These were carried as far down as lat. 3"10 N., from thence had light airs and calms down to 9.10 South lat. Failed to pick up any S.E trades, but experienced variable winds to 30 South lat., which changed to moderate variables from N.E. to N.W., until reaching th_ meridian of the Cape of Good Hope. This was passed on the Ist May. Strong breezes and variable winds from S.E. to N.W. and calm weather were encountered until sighting the Crouzets on the 17th May to the north ward. After then had a succession of strong gales from S.E., to E. which continued dur ing nine days. Then strong breezes from N.E. to N.W. to the meridian of the South Cape of Tasmania, which was rounded on the Bth June. The eastings •were run down in parallels of from 38° to 48°. the weather being warm com pared to the season of the year. Light easterly and N.E. winds were experi enced until the 23rd inst., on which day at 4 p.m Cape Maria Van Dieman was sighted. The North Cape was rounded on the same night. Had fine clear weather and S.W. winds down the coast. Arrived off Tiritiri at 5 o'clock last evening, and took in pilot at daybreak this morning. Anchored in the powder-ground at 9 o'clock. The Hylton Castle comes into port in a very clean con dition. On transhipping her powder into lighters she will come up harbour to discharge her. cargo. A freight is waiting for her, and she will load again tor London immediately on discharge, and it is expected that she will be enabled to clear outwards in less than three weeks. The vessel is consigned to the Auck land Freight Company, of which Mr Batgo iS agent. A list of her cargo appears under the heading of imports.

New South Wales and Queensland Govern ments have'finally declined the Suez proposals. Both agree for the California and Torres Straits services. The temporary service first begins next January. The Government having overridden the judgment of the Chief Court of Mines in the claims jumped at Stawell, both parties are expected to come to blows. Two hundred armed men are shepherding the claims to hold them against the jumpers. The position of the Government in this matter is critical. A Permissive Bill is to be introduced. Dr Muller has been re-appointed Govern ment Botanist, with a salary of £800. I The farmers are demanding assisted immi gration. , . .. Goodwin, ledgerkeeper in the Colonial Bank, pleaded guilty, to defrauding the Bank of £10, 700, and was sentenced to seven years hard labour on each count. In a great squatting property case, Degares v. McMullen, Inspector of the Union J3ank, a verdict was returned for the plaintiff. One thousand two hundred cases, a first shipment of Harrison's frozen meat, go by the ' Norfolk ' in July. Aparcel of Tasmanian hops is being shipped to India. The Hon. Mr Vogel's despatch to the Hon. Mr Francis in reference to the mail service is conficrential, and the contents are unknown. It is believed that it contains counter-pro- go from the Hon. Mr Francis t_*-he Hon. Mr Vogel this mail with refer ence to the Suez service. No concessions on the original proposals need be looked for

from Mr Francis. A want-of-confidence motion has been tabled against the Ministry and their mining policy. A sum will be placed on'the estimates subsidising the cable, and probably for free press messages. A motion has been tabled by a private member, a supporter of the Government, to this effect.

WAIOTAHI HIGHWAY BOABD V THE CALEDONIAN

COMPANY. This was a special case in which the Caledonian Company appealed from the de cision of the Resident Magistrate at the lhames, who gave judgment against the Company at the suit of Mr Dean, collector ot the Highway Board for highway rates claimed against their property. Mr Whitaker appeared for the Company and Mr MacCormick for the Board. At the hearing at the Thames before Mr Jackson Keddell, R. M., it was proved that the rate had been brought into force in the Waiotahi district, and all the provisions of. the Highways Act complied with. It was also proved that the appellants occupied buildings erected on property held under Crown grant, and that the Company had not appealed against the rate Evidence was also given for the Company to show that the land was not rateable, but was held under the Gold Mining Districts' Act, 1871. The Resident Magistrate over ruled the objection on the ground that it should have been taken by appeal against the rate, and not upon suit. The questions for the consideration of the Supreme Court were : Had the appellants a right to prove that the land was not rateable property ; and if they had that right, and only part of the property was land not liable to _.be rated, should the objection against that part of the rate have been sustained.

Mr Whitaker argued at length on behalf of the appellants. He maintained that if the property was not jjrateable, and the Board had exceeded their jurisdic tion in assessing it, it was competent for the person rated to resist the rate upon being sued, although he had not appealed against the rate. He said that although admittedly within the district, if the property were relieved from tho pay ment of taxes by law it was as much beyond the jurisdiction of trustees to make, or the Resident Magistrate to enforce such a rate against it, as if the land were in Auck land. It was for the trustees to see that they did not exceed their jurisdiction, and not for the person assessed, who might take his objection either by appeal or when sued. Counsel quoted several cases in support of his argument, chielly referring to actions of replevy arising out of the enforcement of poor rates in England on persons not liable. He then proceeded to show that the land which formed the subject of action was within the goldfield boundary, and was held under mining lease exempt from rates.
