LATEST SOUTHERN TELEGRAMS.

DTJNEDTN.

(From our own Correspondent.) This day. The Typographical Society Attacks the Aucklaad "Star" Thefollowing effusion appeared in Saturday Dip fit's Dunedin Star : —" 1 trust in a spirit of justice to the Typographical Association, "which, through your telegraphic columns, las had its action grossly slandered and its intention purposely misrepresented by the Auckland Stab, you wM allow me, as re presenting the Society, to make the following reply :— "The Auckland Star has long been noted for its bitter hostility to craftsmen who assisted it to attain to its present posi tion (although that is not much), and appears to have devoted itself to the very laudable object of ruining what should rank as firs'. in the list of trades. It has by its con temptible meanness compelled most of the respectable printers of Auckland to go else where to obtain an honest livelihood, and not yet content, it seeks to poison the public mird against them by the publi cation, in other columns than its • own, of the basest slanders. The Star imagines, poor credulous thing, that the Otago Typographical association will send delegates to Auckland, to disseminate the doctrines of trade unionism. Heaven forbid ! The Bcum of the printing profession who vegetate in and around Auckland are beyond redemption, and their vitiated atmosphere would only contaminate a respectable class of printers who reside further South. Auck land alone has been regarded as the very sink of typographical iniquity by the trade, and is shunned by men as a fever den. It is such papers aB the Auckland Stak that disgrace the newspaper press of the present day. It is too mean to pay for ability either in the literary or mechanical departments. So in order to make it saleable it prostitutes its columns by the publication of the vilest slanders. Under the editorial 'we;'it blackens the reputation and ruins the character of some of New Zealand's best men, the latest instance being E. J. Wakefield. Writers in papers of this class are as cowardly as they are scurrilous ; as vindictive as they are contemptible, for they strike defenceless men with weapons which they know cannot be used against them. These are men who are often allowed to guide public opinion, and who vaunt themselves as leaders in the van of civilization and freedom ! O temporal 0 mores! That to allow such a state of things to exist. In conclusion, sir, I throw' back into the face of the Star, through your own correspondent, the false calumnies it has taken so much trouble to fabricate.—E. 6. Legeove, Secretary Otago Typographical Association."

WELLINGTON.

(From our own Correspondent.) This day.

The Times —that is the would-be colonial journal—in pure stress of subject matter of colonial importance, this morning dances a fandango upon the unfortunate Wellington correspondent of the Stab. Who is he, anyhow ? My private opinion is that he is "somewhat akin to that celebrated pantheonic character who ia commonly designated as three gentlemen in oae. What has he done? He insinuated or intimated that the colonial journal wanted a subsidy for publishing a daily precis of the present Hansard; and the Times is wrath at the statement. It says, and it has a fool for its client in this instance, the mode we recommended would be to furnish day by day a sufficiently full record of the previous night's proceedings, and this ac count would be at the continual service of various papers throughout the colony, who would then not have to wait weeks and to wade through a tedious Mansard to get at any important debate which they might wish to publish at tolerable extent. It is unnecessary to add that our suggestion evoked the usual local distortion and,mis statement which we and Wellington people are so much accustomed to as totally to dis regard, but we were scarcely prepared to find the Wellington correspondent of the Auck land Star telegraphing this distortion and thesemisstatements, with an addition, evoked from his own internal resources in the art of untruth, but so it was. In this corres pondent's telegrams we find our suggestion put as a proposition :— " That the Times should be subsidised to print reports prepared by reporters, part by the Government." We are anxious to characterise this by the briefest known word expressive of an untruth. What we did say, and what we repeat is this, that the Hansard as at present published is utterly useless to the colony ; that we have not the slightest intention of doing that which circumstances will not permit, namely, giving each morning au extended report of Parliamentary pro ceedings ; that such an extended report "would however be far more useful and cheaper than Hansard and its reportorial staff, and that if it be required it wil 1 have to be. paid for." After that I shrivel up like a withered flower, and feel mean at having case the faintest shadow of a doubt ©n the immaculate political character, the high toned morality, and the pure and unselfish patriotism of the New Zealand Times.

It says the Order of St. Michael and St. Georrs was originally invented to distinguish people for doing nothing in particular, and has recently been furbished up for colonial use, and being cheap and nasty, may be awarded to colo nists without apprehension, and in a quan tity that may atone 'for its deficiencies. It says Vogel long hankered after this flimsy distinction, and has perpetually pestered the Colonial Office. To get it, from first to last he has secured the services of journalistic touts and cliquers. The article concludes as follows: "There are some who will be disposed to think that if in future it should be necessary to send to England a public representative for the colony, it will be better represented by a man of education and a gentleman, than by a travelling tuft-hunter, with the tastes and habits of an itinerant showman ; and we do not hesitate to say that we should heartily agree with them " City Valuation. The total value of the city property this year is estimated at £150,620, which, with the usual rate of Is in the pound, will yield for general purposes £7531. The increase in the value of property during the past twelve months was £37,621.

AMUSEMENTS.

THE STSTKRS DTJVALLI,

The sisters Heloiae and Rosalie Duv&lli appeared on Saturday night at the Princw of Wales Theatre in their elegant entertainment, comprising dancing, singing, and comedietta. The fame of the sisters as brilliant danseuses had preceded them, and the fullest house we have seen in the theatre for a considerable time assembled to welcome them. The per formance was divided into two parts, the first being entitled " A Dream of Life," and the second—"The Shah of Persia." The pieces would appear to have been composed and arranged expressly for the performers. They are jeux d'esprit of the lightest possible character, in which the plot is subsidiary to a spicy dialogue, and the dialogue to the dancing. It is as danseuses that the Sisters Dnvalli came before the public and as dan seuses we must therefore criticise them. They are the best performers we have seen on the Auckland stage. In the first part, Miss Heloise1 achieved a triumph in her pas seul the Tarantella. Her motion is very poetry : every movement is attended by graceful ease, while she exhibits a suppleness of body and limb, which conld only be attained by a life training. Later on Miss Rosalie appeared, and as a Spanish youth went through a dance, accompanying it v ith the castanets, which was as signally perfect as her sister's performance. Both the ladies were loudly applauded. Then came a pas de deux in which, besides elasticity and elegance of motion, a large amount of artistic taste in posturing was exhibited on the part of both. In this Miss Rosalie gave evi dence of physical strength surprising in in one possessed of so slight a frame. The second piece gave opportunity for intro ducing a grand dance characteristique, in which the two sisters appeared to great advantage, and again called down the house. The singing, though not up to the standard of the dancing, was pleas ing, while the acting, and especially that of Rosalie, was piquant and clever. Messrs Coutts and Hall gave valuable assist ance in the histrionic and vocal departments. The first named is a capital comic actor, while the latter acts well and has an excel lent light basso voice. Some part songs brought in were executed with taste and precision. The orchestra discharged their indispensable duties in a manner which indicated great talent in the individual members. We would especially notice Mile. Terlecki as a brilliant pianiste. Ihe audience went away in high good humour. To-night the sisters appear with a change of programme. THE WHEELER AND DE GLOBIOTT TROTJPE. The Wheeler and Us Glorion troupe of minstrels and gymnasts were most success ful with their entertainment on Saturday evening. The programme was sufficiently varied to gratify the most fastidious of sight seers. Miss De Courcy sang a number of popular songs with exquisite taste, many of which were encored, and the Irish eccentri cities of Mr. Ben Wheeler were amusing in the extreme, and drew forth frequent signs of approval; Master Bennie, also, was per fectly at home in his well-studied represen tations of character. The brothers De Glorion, and the fairy form of Lo-Lo, were seen to advantage in their wonderful per formances over the heads of the people. The company will only remain in Auckland two more nights, so that citizens will only have two more opportunities of seeing a really good entertainment by a very clever troupe. An entirely new programme has been pre pared for this evening, which will include " Ireland and America," and the laughable comedietta, •• The Fellow That Looks Like Me." BENEFIT FOB MBS SEXTIE. The concert projected by Mr. P. .Koran and his friends, in favor of Mrs Sextie, will b« varied and interesting, and will take place on Thursday evening next, in the Lome street Ball. The entertainment will be under the patronage of the Oddfellows, the members of the Hibernian Society, and other bodies of citizens. DR. CARR. ■ Professor Carr, the celebrated lecturer on phrenology, mesmerism and kindred subjects, has had a prolonged tour in the South, and is on his return passage to this city, where he will resume his successful lectures on these topics upon which he has spent so much time and study.
