THE LATE BAZAAR

(To the Editor of the Evening Star.) Six?,—-I am instructed by the Manse Bazaar Committee to put . you in possession of the true facts of the case unworthily made public by a auspicious correspondent in your issue of Saturday., The article in question was never even seen by the gentleman against ■whom the insinuation was basely made ;' nor had it been won by him and put up again, as you say in your corrective notice in Monday's issue. All the connection th c gentleman had with the matter consisted in hia laudably aid ing to get the article disposed of, and as there was hot time to accomplish this on Friday night the transaction, as in many similar cases, was allowed to stand over till the fol lowing evening. Had your correspondent taken the trouble to enquire at any of the parties in charge of the bazaar he could easily have ' ascertained tho truth respecting any thing suspoisted as wifoig, and thus would hare avoided the sin of wantonly doing an Injustice to one who was in every way deser ving, of, differeni; treatment. The committee have felt themselves called upon to take this notice of the matter, not only on account of the unwarrantable character of your corres pondent's proceeding, but also because the gentleman on whom: he so wrongfully re flected had very generously rendered most efficient help during the whole time of the bazaar, and thathis services appeared to the committee the more praiseworthy that he is n6t' a; member of the Presbyterian Church.— I am, sir, yours very, truly (in name of the committee), D. Brugb, convener.

His' Honor now gave judgment on the preliminary question of the jurisdiction of the Court?, which was disputed by Mr J. B. Russell on behalf of the bankrupt. His' Hojor decided that the Court had ftueen-jto- order the distribution of the money of MON^he creditors in so far as the interest ■ A The looankrupt therein is concerned. The .?.■ wag extremely long, occupying WarlyjanEour in delivery. itaiJuhl au&tU .Me X. SMITHi' ; This case was postponed for a fortnight on tbt »pplio»tioa of Mr Wcuton,

I _• He WM. HENRY BABNETT. I Mr Weston appeared for the bankrupt. I There was no opposition. I The bankrupt was an hotel-keeper of j Tauranga. I On February Ist the liabilities amounted ,to £1,153 Bs, and the assets to £1430 17s 4d, j leaving an apparent surplus of £28G 9s 4d. I The receipts of bankrupt from February Ist \ to August sth amounted to £674 16d, whilo his expenses during that time were tho same. On August oth the liabilities un- I satisfied were £270 sd, while the value of the assets was £107 16a 9d, leaving a deficit ; of £102 3s Sd. J The bankrupt now applied for his dis | charge. j The Trustee's report was read. The bank , rupt presented himself for examination, but 1 no one appeared as examiner. I His Honor granted the discharge. Re MARTIN C. OLEARY. Mr Armstrong appeared for the bank | rupt, who was a contractor at Panmure. By i the abstract final statement of accounts tho liabilities on January 20 were £546 2s _.d, I and the assets, £61S Ss lOd. From January 1 20 to August 12 the bankrupt's receipts were £1011 10s, while the expenditure during the i same time was £1048 14s 7d. On August I 12 the liabilities were £759 12s lid, and the assets, £287 11s 3d, leaving a deficiency of £4/2 Is Bd. The bankrupt now came up for his final examination and discharge. There was no opposition, and the bankrupt received his discharge. Me THOMAS 31. MACHATTIE. This was an application by Mr Weston for the appointment of Mr Osmund Lewis as j trustee in lieu of Mr T. Macffarlano, who , was at present acting. The application was made under Section 7 of the Bankruptcy Act 1808. The application was granted. Th;s concluded the business.

CITY ELECTION.

The election of three members of the City Council has been proceeding during the day. Owing to the adoption of the ballot system of voting the progress of tho polling cannot bo known, and consequently there is not so much excitement as there would bo otherwise. Signs, however, have been plentiful throughout the day that something unusual was going on. Cabs flying about^ placarded in large letters with the names of the candidates', public-houses similarly deco rated, and knots of earnestly confabbing citizens under the verandahs and in the streets may be mentioned as some of these indications. Near the Mechanics' Institute, where the votes are taken, there is a crowd of eager persons who all seem very busy doing nothing. But wait ! There is a com motion. What is it all about ? About a dozen voters have just come up, and see what follows. Each man is button-holed by a canvasser for one of the six, or, rather, we should say five good men and true who are the can didates for the seats at the Civic Board. Many are the good intentions overthrown in the transit through that dangerous group. Hero and there may be seen flitting about in a mysterious manner one or other of the candidates themselves, and to watch their behaviour what remarkably nice men they all are. So civil, so kind, not a bit of pride about them. Shake hands with a coal heaver ! Why not, indeed ? He's as good a nianasl am. Quite right, Mr Candidate, and we hope you will always be as hard-working and honest in your new office (if you get it) as that coalheaver. Round about the loungers are discussing the merits of the different can didates and their chances of success : for alas the two things are not altogether identical. By what we hear it is probable that the Board will not be much altered, although Whitson is talked of as a dangerous man. We shall publish the result in a second edition.
