POLICE COURT.—THIS DAY.

(Before Thomas Beckham, Esq., R.M.) DRUNKENNESS. William Lowrie, John Smith, and Michael Fitzgerald were charged with this offence, and subjected each to ten shillings fine or the usual imprisonment. LARCENY. John Pattman, a rough-looking man, was charged with stealing a black silk dress, value £5, the property of William Orr, on or about the Gth January. Sergeant-Major Pardy said that there was not sufficient evidence in this case to convict the prisoner, who was a neighbour of the prosecutor. The charge appeared to have been brought more out of ill-feeling than otherwise. His Worship in dismissing the accused ad vised him to keep out of bad company, which he promised to do. MARINES AND SAILORS. John Gray and William Dickens were charged under the Malicious Injury to Property Act with breaking one pane of glass" in the Auckland Savings' Bank, the property of the Bank trustees, value £2 15s. His Worship enquired if they were pre pared to pay the damage they had done ? Dickens replied that he supposed they must pay it or go to prison. His Worship could not understand how they could get themselves in such a disgrace ful condition.

Prisoners said they came on shore on pur pose to get drunk and have a row. The prisoners were dismissed upon pay ment of the damage and costs. Samuel Winchorne, a seaman, was charged with being drunk, and using indecent lan guage yesterday afternoon in Queen-street. The prisoner pleaded guilty, and said that he was handled very roughly by the con stable.

His Worship gave the man some good advice, and said he was disposed to deal leniently with them. He was happy to say that it was very seldom that a man-o'-war's man was brought into Court for misconduct. This prisoner was fined 20s and costs.

A GROAN FROM THE GULLY.

Dear Mr. Editor, this trifling lay, Would scarce, I apprehend, be worth its room. If such your judgment also, then, I pray, Let the waste-basket be at once its doom. The Evening Star, the dread of rogue and bully, Can't touch those tiny tj^ants of our gully. Good folks who dwell on elevations, lie thankful for your loftier stations, And with a brother in the vale Have 'sympathy, while I bewail Our woes entomological. (If that word puzzles you, my boy, Your dictionary's aid employ ; Or else apply to Mr Moss, The Education office bo~s.) The unwearied flies, from day to day, Sting sharply, and incessant play. At sunset these retire to rest, But then begins a direr pest. Soon as the evening shades prevp'l, Mosquitoes in their turn assail, And nightly in the fevered ear .Resound their buzzings close and clear. Persistent as the man of fate "Wno teases for the highway rate, And soon will come upon our backs For household education tax, These worst co^ectors for the;r food Demand a tribute of ou- blood ; While such the venom of the race, That, lightly touching hand or face, They leave a poison in the place. To bear these plagues without complaint Would tax the patience of a saint.

THE DISTRIBUTION OF PRIZES.

Auckland Hebrew School,

(To the Editor of the Evening Star.) Dear Sir, —I have been patiently waiting for a promised letter to your valuable journal; but as [none has yetjput in an appearance I have taken it upon myself to bring under your notice the unfairness connected with the distribution of the Auckland Hebrew School prizes, which took place on Sunday last, at the Synagogue, Emily Place. It appears, as can be proved, that a great number of the prizes were awarded by favour to "boys" who really acknowledge them selves that they did not deserve them, and particularly those who deserved honour were not put on the prize list at all ; nevertheless, what I want to aim at (which was remarked by nearly every one present on the occasion) why a certain young lady who came forward and recited a piece most creditably did not get the prize which she ought to have received. A gentleman kindly sent to the committee of the School "as a present" a very handsome work-box, to be presented to "a lady pupil;" but it appears the valuable prize was awarded (to the litter laughter and astonishment of the audience) to a " little boy," with a pro mise by the chairman to be changed next morning for a desk ; but as the gentleman has kept to his express wish —that the prize was to be awarded to a young lady, and not to a boy—l give him great credit; sc do most of those ladies and gentlemen who were present at the examination. On account of the unfairness caused on the part of the young lady I hear a gentleman has purchased a valuable prize, to be presented specially to her, which will be handed over at an early date. Nearly every person who visited the Synagogue on Sunday last came away satis fied with the recitation part of the examina tion, but not the prizes. A great deal of dissatisfaction has been caused on the part of the examination, but not the prizes. A great deal of dissatisfaction has been caused on the part of the committee. However, from circumstances, I believe that the "dis tribution of prizes" of the Auckland Hebrew School pupils, which took place last Sunday, to be the most unsatisfactory that has ever taken place in this city, and I, as well as many others, trust it will be the last of the kind. Apologising for trespassing so much on your valuable space, I am, &c, Visitor.

EXCELSIOR MINSTRELS.

(To the Editor of the Evening Star. ) Sir, —I have read Mr Armstrong's letter, which appeared in your paper last Thursday, in wh%h he in very bad taste attempts to screen himself by throwing out insinuations agatnst ourselves, and wishes to know what became of moneys received by us from* charitable entertainments. As figures speak for themselves below I submit a statement : —Benefit for Mrs. Wayte and J. Taylor, £30 ; ditto to Mrs Cazaly, £25 14s ; Mrs Sinden £18.—P. Doran, Manager Excelsior Ministrels.
