James Dempsey, described afc a contractor, appea'ved ia answer to a summons charging him with a breach of bye-law No. 6 in lay:jjg out a street, to wit, the continuation of "Wyadyard-street, and omitting during 'rffoe -wots, to take the necessary precautions jfor guarding against injury to persons pas sing along such street on the 30th. Mr Joy appeared for Mr Dempsey ; but as it appeared that the defendant had placed barriers round the dangerous places, and otherwise repaired matters, the case was withdrawn at the suggestion of the Resident Magistrate. A TERRIBLE LITTLE W( MAN".

Maria Lysatt, who did not betoken the ■expression of violence in her countenance, but who on the other harjd was most lamb -Tike in her appearance, was charged by a big strapping woman, named Ann Cu»imins, on tb.e 6th instant, with assaulting her. Ann Gummins deposed that Maria Lysatt •was continually tormenting her and on the day in question Maria pulled her by the hair of the head, smashed her kitchen win dow bit two of her ringers which were still Ted from the bite. She also hooted at her, and called her an "orful transporter." His Worship : What does that mean ? Prisoner : I don't know your Worship, unless it means that I came from Cork ? To prisoner : What have you to say to the charge ? Prisoner : Guilty !

His Worship : Are you a married woman? Prisoner: I am, your Worship, with a iusband and five little children. His Worship: Who will take care of them if you go to gaol ? Prisoner : I don't know, I'm sure. His Worship : Well, I must bind you over to keep the peace. Prosecutor : Oh Lord, and your Worship, she won't kape the pace, she won't, as soon as she gets out she'll down wi' me again^ till I shan't ha' a bit o' hair on mine head.

Prisoner was then ordered to find two sureties in £25 each to keep the peace for six months.

THE GOOD TEMPLAR CONTROVERSY.

(To the Editor of the Evening Stab.)

Sir, —I was extremely pained to perceive in last night's Star that you had permitted a letter to appear in your columns with the appended signature of 0. S. Ellis (whoever that party may fee). From the tone of that letter I should consider he would conduct me, rather to an " Infernal" than a Fra ternal Home; one thing I can assure that party if this meets his eye—that willingly I would not pace the same side of the street M himself. Had you, sir, turned up the Templar Standard of Saturday last, you would have found in its columns that I was formally^expelled from' the. Good Samaritan, and that expulsion was fully endorsed and «dopt'ed by the Fraternal Home and Eden Terrace Lodges, with a rider appended by Mr C' Atkin, of the Fraternal Home, "deploring fjuch talent should be prostituted, &o." I did "know* "years ago one O."S. Ellis, and if my memory does aot mislead me he died from the effects of the severe pedal appliances to his seat adininiatered by nearly every landlord in Auckland, for.loafing about their premises. I remember Mm, for in my drinking days I often reilected whether I might not descend downwards to his level in the seale1; of de gradation if I continued my tippling habits ; but that 0, S. Ellis, as I said before, must be dead, so your'correspondent csannot be the same man. The controversy on my part i 8 now closed. I thank you most^eartily, ttost sincerely for the manly way you have, spoken ont and defended me in my • exposure of the iniquitous proceedings of certain unworthy members .of the Order.—l am, &?., T- B- Hannajobd.-

Rewi said he could wait a year. A dance by the natives, and mounted constabulary going through drill, terminated t he proceedings.
