Gladstone might do if he saw his party in extremes. DR. KENEALY. On Easter Monday, Dr. Kenealy got 20,000 idiots to go and listen to and cheer , hi*l" "pd Mr Onslow in Hyde Park. He « /speeches there about Orton and the Jsting subject of the trial, and all sorts of vain and ridiculou.3 resolutions were passed. The Orton movement has already begun to show signs of dying out, and the sooner the better for the lower orders of this country. As for Dr. Kenealy, Infancy he must be making his fortune out of the follies of his followers. NEW LONDON STREET. There is to be another grand new street made in London, connecting Fleet-street with the Thames Embankment. Those of your readers who know London, will remember what a crowded condition Fleet streefc is always in, and this new outlet will be an immense convenience. The purchase money of the land for this street is £170,000, and to this amount isto be added theexpense of removing old houses, &c, but the Metro politan Board of Works takes no thought of money in a case of this kind.

HAMILTON.

(FROM OT/K OWN COBRESPONDENT.) Last night. The result of the poll for the representa tion of Waipa in the Provincial Council ia as follows :— Morris. McMinn. Alexandra ... ... 1 25 Te Awamutu ... ... 7 36 Hamilton 38 5 Ngaruawahia ... ... 5 ... •... 30 Ohaupo... ... ... 13 2 Total 64 97 Morris's supporters did not care to come and vote after the unfair way the election has been conducted. Several came in long distances on Saturday, and would not come again. Major Mair has a deal to answer for. He upset the R.M. Court here yester day, and put everybody to expense. The adjournment of the poll was one of the most unwarrantable pieces of Government officia lism we have had for a long time past. However, there is "more to come yet."

(From Another Correspondent.) McMinn was the winning horse yesterday. He won by thirty-three votes. The Times published a netice last night showing the returns from every settlement.

ALEXANDRA.

[Per Press Telegram Aeency.] This day. Rewi at Alexandra.

Rewi, with about 30 followers, arrived here yesterday. Rewi is now walking about visiting stores, telegraph office, etc. This is without exception the greatest success of Sir D. McLean's administration. Rewi represents the extreme Haubau party, and if properly managed, this should end the great bugbear against the advance ment of the country. The native difficulty is virtually ended. Major Mair deserves great credit for so skilfully managing the most stubborn opponent of the Government, Rewi. Since the commencement hostili ties, until lately, he never having visited any European settlements as he is now doing.

POLICE COURT.-This Day.

[Before John Cosgrave, and C. O'Neil, Esquires, Justices.] PETER IN A I"JT.

Peter Johnstone, was picked up in Queen street by Constable Allen, supposed to be in a fit, but it was a fit of drunkenness. Prisoner expressed his regret; he had been drinking and fell down in consequence. Fined 5s and costs. A REDUCED LOLLY-MAN.

me George Hesford, aa elderly man, formerly fer a lollie-maker, was charged under the er- Vagrant Act with having no visible lawful 'he means of support. 3st Prisoner said the charge was true, but if ia- the Bench would give him his liberty he st. would be off like a pheasant. Mr Williams would get employment for him at once. Detectives Grace and Jeffrey gave an un favourable account of prisoner's general con .y. duct. He would not work, and was con ies stantly associating with thieves and bad tie characters. He was a good hand at lollie makiag, and might have had employment at Wellington, but would not go. Prisoner wished for the presence of Mr Charles Williams, who would clear his character from the vile imputations of the as detectives. of The Bench, then cent a constable for Mr w Williams, and prisoner was put back for a v. time. Mr Charles Williams, fire-kindler manufac turer, came forward and said that prisoner was a great drunkard, otherwise he was a useful man. He was about to recommend him to a friend at Eemuera. The Bench sentenced prisoner to th>. cc II months imprisonment. , c AGED MICHAEL. n Michael Burke, an elderly, man, was g, charged with using obscene language last } f night. j Prisoner pleaded not guilty. He was a c hard working man. n A long list was read out against prisoner, who said it was a mistake. He was not the Michael Btnke referred to : he had been a teetotaller four years, but unfortunately was tempted last night to take a wee drop to keep out the cold, and it flew to his head. Mr Broham said he had no doubt about the identity of prisoner, but he believed he i had been leading a steadier life of late. There 3 was a number of convictions against him. The Bench imposed a fine of 5a and costs. t DECEPTION. Michael Daveru, a boy of ten years, was * charged with obtaining a stick of tobacco, 1 value 6d. from Mr. Major, by false represen tations. 7 The mother of the boy stepped forward to 3 explain, she had paid for the tobacco, and * was very anxious for the boy's improvement; > she sent him to school regularly. The bench gave the parents of the child a I brief- lecture and discharged the boy. ' CHARGE OF LAKCEHY. Mary Ann Sweetman was again brought up on a charge of stealing the sum of £3 from the person of Mary Agnes Denby on the 3rd June. Mr. Laishley, for the prisoner, pleaded not i guilty. [ Mary Agnes Denby deposed that she met prisoner in a little shop on the . wharf, and after some conversation she * accompanied prisoner on an excursion in i quest of a situation. They went first to the Alexandra Hotel, where they had two pints ;of beer; they then went to Hackett'a Market Hotel and had two pints more; prisoner borrowed half-a crown. They then agreed to go for a trip to the North Shore and met with a male friend of prisoner, and had glasses of brandy hot; they then went to Mr. Richmond's, Trhere they lodged for the night. She should not have taken brandy, but she was cold and thought it would do her good. She got very sick, and prisoner was most attentive, and inspected her clothing, where, in her pocket, were deposited seven notes. Thejnext morning she missed three notes. She let the police know of her loss, when the prisoner offered her gold watch as a guarantee in the matter, and wanted t® go out and take something to drink, but she positively refused to take any more brandy and water. _ Cross-examined by Mr Laishley : Shie was very sick after the brandy. She was not topsicated, but could see distinctly. Mrs Sweetman. undressed her. Mr Bond came and searched the place, but the notes were not found. William Henry Parker, hotel-keeper, re membered the parties calling at his house, where they had brandy. The man had beer and paid for the lot. The prisoner subse quently called alone, and called for brandy .and lemonade, and he believed paid for the same with a pound note. Mr Broham said he would ask the Bench to discharge the prisoner, as Mr Parker could not swear positively to the money tendered in payment ; there was no direct j link therefore to fix the charge upon the prisoner. The Bench therefore discharged the prisoner, who burst into a flood of tears. KEEt A-HEAD. Robert Hill, was summoned to answer for a charge of leaving his horse's head on the wharf on the 31st May, and thus committing a breach of the Harbour Regulations. j

Mr J. B. Eussell appeared for the prose cution.

PROPOSED ANGLICAN CONFERENCE.

PARLIAMENTARY INQUIRY RTS NEW

ZEALAND LOANS.

The following additional items of English news appear in the Daily Times : — In the Upper House of Convocation, on the 16 th of April, the announcement was made by the Archbishop of Canterbury that their Lordships had decided to assent to another plan of Anglican conference in the year.lß77, and thai steps would be taken to obtain the attendance of the colonial bishops. Mr. James Barclay, M.P , has given notice that he would move in the House of Com mons, on the 20th of April, that it be an instruction to the Select Committee on Loans to Foreign States to enquire into the circumstances attending the issue in Great Britain of the New Zealand loans.

AUCKLAND LAND SOCIETY.

The annual general meeting of the Auckland Permanent Co-operative Building and Invest ment Society wa3 held las,t evening in the Young Men's Christian Association Rooms, Colonel Haultain in the chair. The business of the meeting having been introduced by the chairman, thesectetary read the third annual report of the society's operations during the past yeai\ The report was most satisfactory shewing that the business of the year had yielded a fair profit, the nett balance avail able for division being £1,438 7s Gd, which will add a bonus at the rate of 13 per cent, per annum to the capitalised accounts of those shares which are entitled to participate. It will be observed from the report that this society is growing, and which the subjoined facts in comparison will show : —For the year ending 31st of March 1573, the new shares issued numbered 3394, as against 1439 in 1873, and 2410 in 1574 ; the investors' subscriptions increased £9161 lla 7d in 1875 from £4809 13s 4d in 1874, and £2173 2s. 2d. in 1873 ; borrowers' re-pay ments increased in 1875 to £8585 153. Id. ; from £3077 3s srt in 1874 ; and £2G4 13s 3d in 1873 ; deposits received increased in 1875 to £12 IG4 7s, from £10,595 19s 5d in 1874, and £304 103 in 1873 ; the deposits returned wore : In 1875, £12,594 13s 4d, as against £4370 4s 7d in 1874; apd £30 in 1873 ; loans granted amounted to £15,655 in 1575, £16,930

in 1374, and £2940 ia 1873. The only ac count which does not here shew an advance upon the transactions of the preceding year is that of loans granted ; and in that case the falling off is merely apparent; for, as will be seen in the cash account, the amount paid on account of loans during the Lst year was £19,500, against £11,G90 for the previous year, arising from the fact that over £5000 of the sum paid was in satisfaction of loans authorised previously to 31st March, 1874. The number of shares issued from the foundation of the Society to 3kt of March, 1875, is 3G9 ; the number still remaining on the share register is 6001 ;J —namely, 4454J investing, and 1607J borrowed shares ; the number of shareholders being 577.— The Chairman expressed hi 3 satisfaction at the successful working of the Society, and thought their success iv a great measure \^a^ due to the labours of their energetic secre tary, whose salary, he was glad to notice, the committee had advanced. He moved the adoption of the report, which was seconded by Capt. Elliott and carried.- The following gentlemen were then elected to office for the comiDg year:—Colonel Haultain, President j Mr Thomas Macffar lane, Vice-President : Mr G. W. Owen, Treasurer ; Messrs Frederick Battley and 8.. C. Carr, auditors; Messrs Thomas Buddie, Francis Cherry, W. S. Cochrane, F. E. Compton, James Coupland, H. N. Garland, Joseph Potter, Thomas Thompson, Isaac Watts, committee.—Vote3 of thanks to the outgoing committee, the chairman, secretary, and trustees were duly given, and the meeting separated.

Inquest on the Body of Mr. J. C. Sextie.

An inquest was held this afternoon at the Suffolk Hotel, College Road, Ponsonby, before Dr. Philson (coroner) and a jury on the body of Mr. J. C. Sextie, who died suddenly at his residence on the morning of yesterday.

Mr William Hartshorn foreman

James Delaney, the first witness, deposed : I am a carter, residing at Mrs Baird's, Col lege Road, next to where deceased lived. Knew him only a fortnight. At a quarter to five yesterday morning, a rap came to his door. He was up and at the back of his house at the time. He was then requested by Mrs Baird to proceed with all haste to the next house, as young Mr Sextie said his father was dying. He went and found Mrs Sextie in her night-dress, sitting on a sofa beside the deceased, and holding his hand. He was lying on his back. I believed him to be dead; there was no breath. She then told me that her husband had come home under the influence of drink on the previous night with anothtr man. She wished me to go for a doctor. There was no one else present in the room, excepting the children. I went to Dr Hooper, who returned with me at once, and pro nounced the man to be dead. The doctor examined some papers lying near a cup, which had been drained. He said he was going to examine the papers to ascertain what they had contained. I saw deceased alive on the previous day in the yard attached to his house. I noticed nothing particular about him.

Margaret Sextie,. widow of deceased, de posed : I was married to John Charles Sextie in 1866. He came home from town on Mon day afternoon, and ate his dinner about five o'clock. He seemed quite lively, and took a hearty dinner of roast beef and vegetables and tea. He then went and laid on the sofa. He had been drinkingr, but took nothing of the kind, with his dinner. He laid down until eight o'clock. He then got up, brushed his clothes, and went out for a walk, but did not say where he was going to. He drank two glasses of beer before leaving the house. He had a cask in the house. He came home about midnight, and made a noise. I got up and opened the door and saw him lying on the verandah. I helped him into the houte; he wished me to let him alone. He then went to the beer cask and got half a glass of beer. I told him he had had enough. He told me to go to bed. Ho laid down on the sofa, would not go to bed. I tried to coax him up stairs, as it was very cold, but to no purpose. I left a candle in the room. I went out and he shut the door after me. saying, don't trouble me, I want to go to sleep. I fell asleep for some time, when I was awakened by a groaning noisa. I went to the room were he was lying, and spoke to him, but got no answer. I thought he was dying, and sent to the last witness to go for a doctor. I rubbed his limbs and shook him, but he did not speak*; he did not move, nor seem to notice me ; he did not appear to breathe ; his body was warm. [Left sitting.]
