MINERS' FRANCHISE. Mr O'Connor movedjthe second reading of the Miners' Franchise Extension Bill. Its object was to enable those in possession pf miners' rights to vote at Superintendeiils' elections. Mr Voc-1 would not oppose the second reading of the Bill.. It was desirable to affirm°the principle that miners should be empowered to vote for Superintendents. He hoped, however, that the Bill would then be withdrawn, as the question might be more effectually dealt with next session | under the intended Electoral Bill which it was pro posed to introduce. Mr Studholme moved that the Bill be read a second time that day six months. - ' Mr Wilson seconded the amendment. Mr White hoped the Bill would be passed this session. It was important that it should as Superintendental elections would occur before next session] Sir C. Wilson said if the Government in troduced manhood suffrage, what about the Maori race ? Would they be able to vote ? Mr Shepherd would give his vote in favour of the Bill. He was afraid it would not pass the Council. ,

Mr Harrison entirely dissented from the view that miners should have any special electoral rights notpossessed by other classes. AH this special legislation in regard to miners was objectionable. Had it not existed they would put themselves on the roll in the regular manner. He looked on the Bill as brought forward at a very objectionable period. There was the .Superintendental election of the province of• Nelson about to' come on. There would also be a Superinten dental election of the new province of West • land, and it was very objectionable to alter the law just at the present conjuncture. Mr Pyke thought the variety in 'the elec toral laws very objectionable; but as it existed lie would support the,_3ill, which would; pnly do justiceto the miners: v Mr O'Connor, in replying, said the Bill w&s introduced in accordance withgrecommenda tidns made by the G-oldfielcLs Committee, The question that the Bill be road a second tube was carried by 21 to 18.

'THE TIMBER FLOATAGE COM-

i MIITEE. .During, the short recess at 10.30 Messrs, Vojeel, Rolleston, and Sheehan met on the fiooi of the House as a committee to prepare reaao,na.f or. .rejecting the amendment of the CoTU-giljot. the .Timber Floatage Bill: Tie 'debate was overheard from the re porters'gallery. ; Messrs Rolleston and Sheehan had assigned reasons which Mr Vogel doggedly resisted. , The contest grew exceedingly warm and the i speakers adjourned to the Speaker's room.

I could not help reflecting that though people say Christian friendship, and masonic friendship are enduring, these cannot sur pass the "friendship formed in gambling hellS. ' V' "' " On, .the House resuming Mr Sheefian brought up the reasons, namely—that the House***considered it impolitic to sanction Buch exceptional as singling out Auokland as a province. . . ' ~ Mr Swanson objected to this as not#e_i bodying the views expressed by the House, which weie that the question of bringing the Act into force should be left to the Pros vincial Councils. Mr Rolleston supported the same view. , ••*«?* *./,'"■

Mr Vogel promised that # time were allowed* he would bring down a «__easure making the Superintendent act in the matter only with the Executive. He made another!* attempt to get the amendment sanctioned, but failed aiAid laiughtdi*. . Eventually the reasons were adopted. Some. other dodge will doubtless be tried.

WANTED KNOWN", that * MISS PENNAL has much' pleasure in in troducing to the public of Auckland the Most Useful Lock-stitch Sewing Machine ever yet Imported : ■ PRINCESS OF WALES. This admirable Machine is tho most perfect Lock stitch Machine yet invented. It is so simple that the most inexperienced can operate it without any previous instruction, while it is ircapablc of derange ment by ordinary use. The range of application is practically unlimited : anything that can bo worn or require stitching in a house can bo executed on this Machine. Tho tension rarely requires regulating. From muslin to dressed calico, woollen cloth, or even leather may be sewn without change of needle or cotton, or alteration of tension. The work is easily guided by one hand, while the other is employod in turning it. When fixed on a stand it can be cjperatud by hand or foot at pleasure, and it is then as efficient as the most costly treadle machine. Besides all kinds of domestic use, it can be applied to many varieties of manufacturing use, such as dress-making, jnantle making, stay-making, and tailoring. ENGLAND'S QUEEN. This remarkable Machine presents 'some entirely new features never before realised in a Sewing Machine, and making it more extensively useful and more varied in its application than any other Sewing Machine whatever?swhether hand or treadle. In its application to plain sewing of every kind it exactly .resembles the Princes- of Wales, but it it can bo instantly changed without stopping the Machine to herring-bone stitching and to overseamlng, This is effected by simply turning a screw, and the width and length* of the stitch are regulated at pleasure. Tho arrangement permits of the overseaining or, herring-boning of any fabric whatever, and will "be found of Immense value in the manufacture of children's clothing and in ornamental work. IJ _c wns where elasticity is required the stitch of this Machine is superior to every existing Machine. It is important to observe that all these jvdvantagos are obtained with the most perfect simplicity of const, ac tion. -ESrNote the address i-MISS PENNAL; Drossj Mantle-maker, and Machinist, West End Houhk, WAKEFiBi-.t) htheet. ,-■ Apprentice Wanted. __^^ THOS7 KOBINSON, Shoemaker, sincerely thanks those who assisted him at the late''fire, and no tine's his present address as Mahe _*-iiti,n's Buildings, Albert-street, where orders will meet with prompt attention.
