He left Southampton for Havre, where he joined the Paiiline, a sailing vessel bound for Valparaiso, with Moore and another passen ger. They put into Falmouth, and from thence he wrote a short letter to Lady Doughty. On the 19th June the Pau)ine arrived at Valparaiso. Afterjspending ten days at Valparaiso he left for Santiago, and returned to Valparaiso on the Cth July. He made a second excur sion to Santiago, returned, again joined the Pauline, sailed in her to Avica, where he arrived on 23rd August. He then went to Lima and Guayaquil, collected curiosities, returning to Lima in November, 1853. Moore, his valet, travelled with him part of these journies, and another servant, a Frenchman, Jules Berrot, from whom he bought a skeleton, which he sent to Mr Gos ford, with a paper describing it. On the 31st December, 1853, he was again at San tiago, where he had two portraits taken, which he described in a letter to Lady Doughty. On the 11th January, 1854, he left Santiago to cross the Cordilleras, and about the end of the month arrived at Bio Janeiro, where he engaged a passage in the Bella for New York. He wrote long and in teresting accounts of his travels to his friends in England, but in none of the letters does the word "MelipiJla" appear, nor does the name " Castro" appear. He alludes to his return to England in three years, as he had stated to Miss Doughty. The Bella, a vessel 300 to 400 tons|burden, was commanded by Capt. Birkett, bound for New York. Roger went on board and she sailed on the 20th April, 1854, he then being over twenty five years of age. His servant Jules BeTrot saw him safely on board. Captain Hoskins and Captain Oates also saw him.

The Proposals for Provincial

Borrowing

Passengers by the Luna

GS£ Strength of the Opposition

Movements of the Member for Eden.

(FROM OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT.)

The Ladybird returned from the wreck of the Rangitoto at eleven o'clock last night. The steamer was found to be in the same position, and portions of the decks and cargo were floating. Nothing was picked up, the visit being merely one of inspection before the auction. The steamer Napier went to the wreck last night and will return to-day. The sale has been post poned till Monday. The wreck is considered valueless.

The Luna has arrived bringing a delegate to oppose the National Bank charter, and the deputation in favour of boys, who (is it not wonderful) goes on to Dunedin to wait upon Creighton, who is not to leave there till wanted. Don't be excited about provincial borrow, ing. Auckland is to mortgage the mad-house, gaol, and black elephant. ■ The Opposition is not so disorganised as supposed. Apparently the present policy is badgering. The members have not all arrived. The plot will develop by-aud-bye, and I believ c a straggle is coming.

PARLIAMENTARY.

[by telegraph.] j HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Debate on the Provincial Councils' I Powers Bill. WELLINGTON. This clay. in the House, last night, in committee on the Provincial Councils' Powers Bill, Mr Gil'ies thought that all the objects soupht would be sained by a declaratory act defin ing the terra " Court of Civil or Criminal Judicature." The whole difficulty was due to the ambiguity the term. He g ave notice of amendment accordingly, and proposed reporting progress to take the Attorney- General's opinion on them. Mr Bunny moved an amendment to leave the provinces to deal with all matters outside those prohibited in the Constitution Act. Mr Fitzherbert condemned the Bill as the narrowest, most pettifogging, and technical Bill that could have been framed. It was evidently drawn by a subaltern, and, as the Government could make neither head nor tail of it, they bring it for the House to amend in Committee. Mr Vogel, after speaking in defence of the Bill, said that if the House and the Govern ment desired the same end he would not object to reporting progress, when, in the meantime, a better Bill for the purpose than the present might be framed. The reporter of the Post has been excluded from the House by the Speaker in conse quence of complaints by Mr Bathgate regard ing the inaccuracy of a certain report. The Speaker said, with reference to Mr Bathgate's complaint against the Evening Post report, that he had summoned the re porter to wait on him —the reporter flatly refused. He had also received a letter from the editor, accepting the responsibility of everything in the paper, and questioning the right to summon one of his staff. He wished to know what the House desired. Mr Vogel said the House would support the Speaker in checking habitual misrepresentation in re ports, but the present case was not such. The local papers gave very fair resumes of the proceedings, and the pre sent case was an error under peculiar circum stances, and was very excusable. Mr GilUes concurred with Mr Vogel, and said the acoustic properties of the House would excuse any mistakes. Mr Stafford said he had understood that the reporter did not flatly refuse, but pleaded engagements, and. offered to wait on the Speaker at any other time—a very different matter. Major Atkinson thought the Speaker was right, and the editor would probably have done the same. Mr Swanson thought it was hypocrisy in being so particular about what Wellington papers say and paying no attention to others. ". •'* ,'"""■ Mr O'Conor regretted that the whole cor respondence was not read, when the matter nrght look different. .... The Speaker, in a pet, said he understood the papers in future might make what misrep resentations they liked, and he was not to notice them. Mr Vogel objected to such an interpreta tion of what he said. Eventually the Speaker said he would pay no attention to complaints of reports except on motions that the Speaker do leave the chair. The Post-office Amendment Act, Wash dyke and Pleasaut Point Railway Act, and Bank Holidays Act were read a second time. The Canterbury Width of Tires and Can terbury Waste Lands Acts were committed. The Native Councils, Insolvency, Educa tion, and Miners' Franchise Bills were post poned. • A motion for a report by the General Manager re the Telegraph line from Maketu, Giaborne, and Napier was ordered. A committee was appointed to consider the Diseased Cattle Act. In the House, yesterday, in reply to Mr Sheehan, Mr Vogel said the Government had no intention of introducing a measure to amend the Mining Companies Act of last session. In reply to a question by Mr Johnston relative to the new tariff, Mr Vogel said that people were passing resolutions under a mistaken idea. The alteration in the tariff would lead to a decrease in the declared value of the imports, and consequently any estimate of the next year's revenue based on the supposition that the imports would be set down at the same value as in last returns must prove fallacious. There would be an increase of only £50,000 on the revenue next year. Mr Sheehan asked the Native Minister whether the Government proposed to afford the House an opportunity of discussing the Native policy. He said the policy was before the House in several bills ; and asked the Government why they did not bring down the whole of the native measures, and have a discussion on them on one day. The Premier said that the Government did not admit the necessity for discussion, and had therefore no intention of submitting the question to the House. Certain measures regarding native matters would be introduced shortly, and Mr Sheehan could then take action. The Cable Subsidy Bill evoked a bitter discussion. The bill passed through com mittee without amendment and was reported to the House.

The buildings in front of the City Hall will shortly reflect some of the more prominent features of such cities and towns as London, Liverpool, and Dublin, and compare favor ably with the older establishments of Lower Queen-street. The magnificent emporium of fashion, to be opened on Monday next by Messrs A. Linabury and Company, in the wholesale and retail drapery, hosiery, and outfitting business, is on a scale hitherto unsurpassed in this province, and will attord a variety of attractions for our fair Bisters. The paintings and decorations j of the new store are by Mr Brinsden, and the wood work is creditable to the builder.
