"I HOPE I DON'T INTRUDE?"

One of tho world's greatest poets has told us somewhere that " the proper study of man kind is man ;" and although I have been throughout an unusually long and eventful life a tfealotia student of the History and philosophy of human nature, I am now com pelled to admit with Socrates "that I have lived long enough only to know that t know nothing !" 1 fell into the foregoing reverie last evening while snugly ensconced in my high-backed leather-seated t arm-chair (a family heirloom), and perusing the graphic notes of your ."special" from' that hot-bed of bribery and corruption situated "somewhere in Cook's Straits." The sub ject matter of the letter was the important one of insular separation, and>l was gravely and attentively following the thread of the writer's argument, Until arriving at . the point where he mentions the Southern Volunteers in an insinuating sort of manner, human nature (not to mention philosophy) could stand it no longer, and throwing my self back intojthe arms of the ancestral maho gany I gave vent to my pent up feelings by roars oflaughter, in which I fancied I waa joined by the hissing embers oh the hearth and the purring of my old torn cat, "Pecksniff,"; who a] as, only imitating hi human betters, took advantage of hi master's temporary insanity to spring on to the writing table and ..describe a series of hieroglyphics with his paws (or claws) over tho still damp sheet of immortal M.S. Visions of Bombastes Furioso, Don Quixote, the Battle of Dorking,, and Jessie's Dream, flitted before my tickled fancy, and further on in my " mind's eye" I could seethe hoary-headed hero of a hundred rights, Sir jJohn Hayloft Brayhard, X.C.8., and M.G.A., of Goorka, Christchuroh, pro vince of Canterbury, attended by his trusty aide-de-camp, Captain Coster, of Monger, in the same province, and surrounded by a briJliaut stall' of shepherd kings, reviewing the Soixthern Army (of course all'willing volunteers) on the' plains of Canterbury. At the close of the manoeuvres the gallant veteran addressed the army in a stirring speech, during which he was imperfectly heard to say "that cer tain low radical newspapers in the North Island' had had the audacity to' compare the conflict into which they were about to enter, and out of which, after what he had witnessed that day, he was convinced they would victoriously emerge, —(three cheers from the ranks) —with the late civil war in tho United States. Nay, more, these journals had the effrontery to enter into details, and endeavour tp inflame the ignorant minds of their readers by point ing out that as in the-States the seat of Go vernment was situated.in the North, so here, in the event of hostilities, foreign powers would refuse tp'.recognise lisas belligerents ; nay, more, that they would brand us as rebels. (Strong language and other signs of emotion in the ranks.)' They continued the parallel still further by comparing the selfishness of we, possessors of the golden fleece, in depriving the North of its fair share .of our soil to the cruelty and' avarice of the Southern cotton planters in endeavouring to maintain slavery in their, social system. Arid what think" you, men, the gallant general added ma voice tremb 1 ling with suppressed emotion, these same low radical journals had the insolence to insinuate in conclusion nothing less than that, in the long run,, truth would surely triumph, and that as the North came out victorious from the American struggle, so the North of New Zealand would do likewise here!" (Com motion in tho ranks, during which the whole army instinctively fixed bayo nets, and the : officer's sword arms played with tho handles of their sheathed blades). After referring to the critical financial position of the country, and the current prices of wool, the gallant vete ran concluded as follows, amidst immense enthusiasm: —■

Oh I Heaven, he cried, my bleeding country save: Is there no hand on high to shield the brave ? Yet though destruction sweep those lovely plains, Rise, fellow-men, our counti/ yet;remains : By that dread name we wave the sword on high, And swear with her to live—with her to die.

With this I awoke to discover that I had merely been "wool-gathering;" that Peck-, sniff, contrary to the .generally•:accepted opinion of his; godfather's character, had neglected the advice of Dr. Watt, gone over to the arch enemy, and got ii^tp mischief far enough to overturn the inkstand on to my shepherd tarfcan inexpressibles, and- that the' time-piece, on .the side board (another, family heir-loom) was galloping, along into the middle of next week " at the rate of sixty minutes an hour!" . ; .,,-, ;'.. ~-,'■ .- ' '■">

FOR THE WRONG THAT NEEDS RESISTANCE.

(To the Editor of,the Evenihg Star.) i Sir,—l visited the bazaar last., night, and being persuaded by the ladies to part rather freely i—who could help it? —I must confess I would have returned home full of pleasant reflection^ and thoroughly satisfied ■. with everything that: took place had it not been for an affair that warrants strict inquiry. A gentleman of reputed respectability won a large eiieese. From the becoming Smile that let up his countenance a elbse observer could' see that the happy fellow Would n6t remain long in the hall, but would hie home, and make an attack on the arm full of good'things that luck presented him with.. More generous sentiments took possession of bis manly Jbpsom. He called his, friends around* him and inti-< mated that he would put the cheese up again, and present the_ committee with the proceeds. With pencil and book in hand he. went forth, sticking up gentlemen that he happened to know, and. making , pretty speeches of the most persuasive nature, embroidered with .hints that it was f6r the Church. He soon managed to make up the number, twenty-four, at- one shilling each. Drawing near ten o'clock the sub scribers gathered around the: lottery boxes to ace who the lucky individual •' would be. But lo! the benevolent gentleman had hooked: it, to the great surprise of all bystanders. In conclusion I may state that should this party, who is a knight of the yard-stick, and fills a good situation in a respectable house in town, hand over the'proceeds to the com mittee of the bazaar no more will ( be said about the matter. Should he not db so ,the . whole affair will* bo made public through tire columns of your valuable jourrikl.— YoMra, &c, Looker-ox.
