Mr H. H. Ltisk was the next speaker. Holding out the bills in his hand, he stigma ti'p'H 'he Abolition as a gross abortion He considered it was an illegal measure ; but th;o was a slight objection, as many illegal enact nents were passed. But it was not for t is r a«i>n thac he did not wish to see the Bills passed, it was because they ought not to jas i- f »hey could do so. (Cheers.) He tad declared himself in favour of abolition, but he was confident that, though the time had come, the tiun had not, nor the measures. (Rf i ewed cheers.) He should like to know "What tht- Cen'ral Government had done which tht- Piovincial system bad not done— » Voice : How about the railways ?

M l.usfe : The railways ! Are you safc's fi- d with the railways (no and laughter) What were the promises of the General Gov efement in inspect to the pound for each pound of <axation? Whose money were th«y gmuQ to make a virtue of givius* them. Why. their own. (Cheers) With Mr Dar, gaville the question seemed to be a personal one to psy off a spite against Sir George Grey (hear, he*r.) It was not so with himself. If he could see in the measures anything calculated to improve colonization and encourage settlement he would sup port them. In looking at the two bills they would see that there was one big bill and one little bill. The big bill wasn't worth a rush without the little bib, because there wa3 no money in it. } Voice: "It isn't like a lawyer's bill, then." (Laughter.) The speaker, in continuation, said the Government proposals were about to attempt a clean swoop of institutions under which they bad lived for over twenty years. Mr Dargaville : " Lingered," you mean. Mr Lusk said he thought Mr Dargaville didn't care about lingering : he always aeemed to jump too soon. (Laughter.) He was about to say that the Provincial system had developed many defects, but they were not to be remedied by measures which in the very free of them bore the impress of falsehood. Why their very supporters told them so: they said the Bills would enable them next year to t ke advantage of the South, and get possession of the Land Fund. After pointing out many of the deceptive fe-tnres of the bill, Mr Lusk said he could not see the great harm which, according to Mr Wrigley, would result from waiting six months. Mr Besder Wood, like himself, was not a Pro vineialist, and when he came back would no doubt give them his views of what should be done. Sir George Grey would do the same, and even his friend Mr Dargaville would have to do the same. (Laughter). But if he pinned his faith to such a rag he had better try-and find another constituency. (Cheers). They had no doubt seen telegraphic despatches in. the news papers, but he would tell these de spatches were carefully prepared by the Government, and had a purpose to serve. It was all very well to hold hole and corner meetings, and for men like Mr Dargaville to get up and speak all on ihe one side ; and besides, as Mr. Wrigley said, it was so vice for the pocket. (Laughter.) They mighc depend on it that all that was promised in the Government measures was either moonshine or their own already. (Cheers.) He was never so much ashamed of the Pro vincial Government as when they proposed a tax on kauri gum (laughter). It was rushed through the Council, and sent down to Wel lington as the act of the Council. When it came before the House, Mr Dargaville was the fin* man to ask the House n»t to press it o'h!Oh !) He was wise, but hi« wis dom cawa rather late. He had decided m the first place without thought, and he had done so in zhe present instance (cheers). The speaker concluded an eloquent speech by a reference to the pressing wois of tne_Pio vince He sat down among enthusiastic

anivUusie. . , .. Mr Hughes attempted to speak to the amendment but w*s not allowed a hearing. Mr W H. Kiss.ins? said he was not going into the provisions of tbe Bill, but called the attention of the meeting to the fact that the baa features of tbe Bill wonW be excised in comm-t'-ee. Mr Lusk some six months ago seconded a resolution at tbe Choral Hall m favour of the time having come for abolition. (Cries -So he said just now). Mr Kisshng s further remarks were not all favorably received. The road through Parnell which had been alluded to by Mr Lusk as the work of the troops was not made by them, but by the General Government, t Mr B. McDonald, in a humourous speech, likened the proceedings of the General Go vernment at Ohinemuri to the snmmary pro ceenings of General Grant in Ireland fafty years ago. Mr Dargaville rose to speak on some per sonal remarks which Mr Lusk had let drop, but the meeting would not hear him for a loug while. When silence was restored, Mr DargaviUe denied that he had any connection with tbe education tax, and explained his reasons for introducing and withdrawing the gum tax. . Mr Staines having made a few remarks, The Chairman read the resolution and the amendment. On the amendment being put to the meeting, about a dozen hands were held up in its favour. The original resolution was then put, and a regular forest of hands held up for it. The Chairman.declared Mr Staines motion carried by a large majority, an announcement which was received with tremendous ap- A vote of confidence in Mr Header Wood having been called for and responded to with peals of cheering, the meeting came to a close with'the usual vote of thanks to the Chairman.

The benefits the use of the medicines has conferred on several I have supplied it to, is really marvellous. Bead the following extracts of a few of the letters I have received acknowledging their efficacy, and judge for your selves :— " My daughter, who has been deaf for a number of years, Mr Hannaford's remedy has entirely cured — John Gbey, Confectioner, Queen-street. Auckland '.' "I have suffered from deafness nearly 12 years, and availed myself of the best medical experience in vain. I have tried Mr Hannaford's, of High-strt-et, remedy for nearly a month, and am nearly cured. Mr Hannaford, in my opinion, is .a benefactor to mankind.—Walteb Howe, Moore-Btreet, Auckland." "I am so satisfied of your remedy's curative pro perties from personal experience, that I have remitted yovi £5 lor a quantity to send to relatives of mine in Melbourne —J. Thompson, Oamaru, Otago." " My hearing is improving fast, so much so that I can hear my watnh tick at the bed's head. Send me another box of the various ingredients —Charles MoKeegan, Ghuznt-e-street, Wellington." "I have been under the care of that impostor Bosenthal, but derived no benefit from his treatment. After using Mr Hannaford's remedy for little more than a week, I find my hearing quite restored, so much so that I am quite annoyed at any of my frienda speaking ii a loud tone. — Andeew McMillan, Maketu, Bay of Plenty, Auckland." Letters addressed to Mr T. B. Hannafoed, High- Street, Auckland, will be promptly attended to.
