to a proclamation which had been deci ded upon by the Government. The debate yesterday ought J to teach the Governor a salntary lesson. , Such lecturing and hectoring as this By the Government through their organ has been habitual recently, but it is expected it will have as little effect on his Excellency as it bad on the Legislative Counoil.

The Latest.

INTENTIONS OF THE MINISTRY.

This day, 3 p.m

I find, on reliable authority, that the Go vernment will make a firm stand j they con sider it -would make them contemptible to do otherwise. The same authority states the Governor must consent to swamp the Council or dismiss ministers. In the latter case that Mr Mantell will be sent for. It is probable that the course taken by the Government may be to pay the Council off by introducing a Property Tax Bill as a sub stitute for the Provincial Loans Bill, to pass it through the Lower House, and if rejected in the Council to dissolve the Lower House, and appeal to the country. If strengthened, again to pass tbe Bill in the Lower House, and make this the pretext for re-construct ing the Counoil.

As a question of strategy in order to secure a fresh lease of portfolios tbis is is considored a very able scheme, it being believed that the country is not so enthusiastic for provincial borrowing as if thejissue were adroitly Bhif ted and the Min istry appeared the champions for taxing the rich.

"RICHELIEU" AT THE PRINCE OF WALES THEATRE.

The fine historical play of Richelieu, from the pen of the late Lord Lytton, was intro duced to the Auckland public last evening upon the boards of the Prince of Wales Theatre. In order fully to-understand the plot of this splendid dramatic production it.is necessary to have a knowledge of the subject, or the force of the play is lessened. The author sketched the plan of Richelieu originally with the view of writing a novel, but as the subject had been caught up and maltreated in volumes of fiction by James, and other novelists, Bulwer gave it to the stage for the intellectual benefit of future' generations, and there it re mains a heritage for ever. The adminis tration of Cardinal Richelieu forms an epoch in the history of Prance, as well as in her relation with other continential countries, and as a key to the past life of. France Bulwer's play is useful to the student of European history. The people of Auckland after so long a slumber in the simple enjoy ment of the music of the piano, the ballad, and dance, almost invariably associated with our oft-recurring concerts —were hardly prepared for the sounding oratory and sublime march of the tragic muse. It is well, however, that our easy dreams should occasionally be broken by the thunders of eloquence, and the vibrating thoughts of the dramatic bards. As far as our sole remaining theatre would admit Richelieu was well brought forward last night. The scenery was as good as possibly could be expected under the circumstances. As an actor Mr Fairclough is one of the best we have ever witnessed in this colony ; he was more perfect in Richelieu than in Ham let, and probably he will shine to greater per fection in Othello. He appeared to have a very good conception of the character of Richelieu, and in the three last acts he was faultless. In the opening act we thought he was rather too tame in his utterances, and lowered his tone of voice too much at the close of the sentences, con sequently the finish of several fine passages were lost to the audience. Of course it is unfair to place Mr Fairclough on a par with such men as Kean and Brooke, and one or two others who successfullyl shone in the leading London theatres, as great actors possessed ample appliances and con veniences and stage associates, which were of immense advantage to them. Such ap pliances are not within reach of a tragedian in Auckland. We say, therefore, consider-, ing the-circumstances surrounding the tra gedian in this city, that Mr Fairclough was eminently successful as Cardinal Richelieu. Mr Hesford took the part of Baradas in a highly creditable manner, to the entire satis faction of the spectators. Mr Lachlan McGowan was excellent as Joseph, although we think that in other characters, where humour is necessary, he is more happy. Mr G. W. Collier delineated the character of De Mauprat with truth and characteristic finish. The peculiarities of Julie De Mauprat were pathetically and beautifully exhibited by Mrs Walter Hill, who sustained that delicate character throughout with her wonted self possession and grace. Miss Lizzie Bushe was equally successful in Francois, ex hibiting with airy lightness; and lively gait the activities of Francois. This young lady appears to have been moulded by nature for some such character as that which she repre sented, with her polished limbs and joyoua countenance. Mr Lyster, as Louis, lacked firmness and vigour; his acting otherwise was good, but his1 playing was passionless, and not in keeping with the character he professed to copy. The subordinate players do not call for special remark. As a whole the splendid play of Richelieu, which will be repeated to-night, must be pronounced suc cessful. There was a yery good attendance, and in more than one respect these dramatic representations should meet with deserved recognition] The selections of music, under the conductorship of Mr De Lias, were lively and appropriate.

SUPREME COURT.—This Day.

IN BANCO.

(Before His Honor Sir Geo. A. Araey, Kb, Chief Justice.) jri RE HENRY POPE. An adjournment of a fortnight was applied for by Mr Meyer, instructed by Mr Keatly, in this case in consequence of the bankrupt not having yet arrived in Auckland. - The application was granted. v-' J **■ RE DAVID UNDSAY. Deed of arrangement. Mr Rogan on behalf of the arranging debtor applied for a declaration of the com plete carrying out of the terms of the deed. Mr Rogan having shewn ; that the provi sions of the Act had been eo'mplied with his Honor granted the order. RE JOHN GARDNER HENDERSON. Mr Armstrong appeared for the bankrupt, and Mr Meyer for the Trustee. . Mr Armstrong applied for a further ad journment of the bankrupt's final examina tion for a fortnight. The statement at pre-' aent put in was defective, and required amendment, whUe.the Trustees' report was: not completed. The Chief Justice said he had no alterna«

tive but to agree to the adjournment. It was! then suggested by his Honor that in order to I save time the evidence given in the hank- j rupt's-examination on thel7 th August should j be read over, and with the consent of all parties be taken as having been given to-day. This was agreed to, and the evidence, was read over by the Judge from his notes. i ; An order on the prima facie evidence for inquiry was then granted by his Honor on the application of Mr Meyer. .... The order was. granted under the 14Gth section of the Bankruptcy Act, and set forth j that the bankrupt having made over the sum ' of £450 to Mr Sohultzeon behalf of his wife while in a state of insolvency, that amount should forthwith be brought into the estate and divided, among the creditors, . ; ....: ■ j

POLICE COURT.-This Day.

(Before Thomas Beckham,.Esq., E.M.) DRUNKENNESS.. George Nunn, Thomas Murray, and Mar garet Moore, described as a domestic servant, and who shed tears in the dock, were sever ally fined for-this offence. *.'V ''.'.' ASSAULT... ,=5 ■; '.. James Heaton, on remand, and Catherine Heaton, were charged with unlawfully and violently assaulting James Watson at Kaiku creek on the Gth inst., thereby doing him grevious bodily harm. ' Mr Brobam asked that this case, might be remanded for a week. Remanded accordingly. THE STONE THROWING CASE. John South, who has been several times remanded, was again brought up on the charge of assaultinganother boy named Thos. Murray, >. on the Bth instant, whereby the latter is in danger of losing his eyesight. ..,,' Mr Broham asked for a remand in this case as the. lad Murray was stil'. in a pre carious situation. Mr Joy, who appeared for the defence, objected to a remand. The boy was under fourteen years of age, and the act was j not of a malicious character as the boys were strangers to'each other. His Worship said the question as to whether or not it was a malicious act would be shewn in evidence. He would extend the bail until Monday next, when the Court would dispose of the case. . - :■ A NEGLECTFUL PARENT. William HaJliday was charged with re fusing -to contribute towards'tlie support of his three daughters-i-Sarah, Margaret, and Alice—now in. the Industrial School, he being in a position to render such assistance. The father, a respectable-looking man, pleaded guilty to the charge, but he had not hitherto been in that position. He was now working in the kitchen of an hotel. He belonged to the 57th regiment of tho lino, and was in receipt of a pension of Is 2d a day. His wage^ in the hotel were 17s Gd, and- his wife earned a little money. .His Worship thought the accused might very well spare his pension for the support of his children. He wished to have his children home.

Mr Broham said he should certainly object to the children being given up to accused, after all the trouble that had been taken with them. '::••'•'••• '■'

His Worship said that he could not inter fere in that matter. He had no power to release them altogether. He thought more over'that as the mother was guilty of habits of intemperance the children would escape the iufiuonce of a bad example. ; Halliday said he wished his children to bo retained in the Home on Protestant princi ples, as he was a Protestant.

The, Court, ordered him to pay seven shillings a week for the partial support of his children, which he agreed to pay into the hands of Mb Broham. i tkiv/.u i«< .; v h
