GRAHAMSTOWN.

(From our Own Correspondent.) This day. The goldfields traffic up the Waiotahi is likely to be stopped through want of a piece of road, the making of which would cost about £500. This morning the carters re fused to take timber up, and a number of tributers have quailz that cannot be brought down to the mills. The road is in the borough, but as tho Provincial Council did not vote any money they can do nothing. At the present time it is nearly £5.000 in debt. Nearly one hundred men Mall be thrown out of employment if nothing is done. , "The Advertiser, in reference to Tairua, says : "The people of the Thames will resent the sermon on morals from the Star. No doubt the Star is moved by a stern sense of justice and by a morality infinitely above anything which it thinks can exi_t on the Goldfields, but it is wrong and badly in formed. It says—" If those who claim prior discovery had applied, for a prospecting area, every man on the Goldfield would have cried out, 'Let each man have three, four, or five men's ground allotted to him ;' but they did not d® this, and made arrange ments to get prior information of when a cer tain proclamation was to be issued; and so secured thirty acres or eighty-eight men's ground. The Star talks about " rights deliberately bargained for and sanc tioned before the field was proclaimed. We ask why * did those who claim to be prospectors not bargain for a Prospectors' Claim ? What right had they to bargin for anything else. As for those who objected to a license been granted to the Tairua Gold Mining Company, we are not aware upon what grounds they object. AH we say, is let the matters in dispute be fairly tried. If the Government were to in terfere, and to supersede the law courts in every case in which they considered from an ex parte statement of the circumstances that those who had their ear and political in fluence had justice on their side, then there would be neither law nor justice in New Zealand."

They are now through the run of gold until they get another stope forward. The contractors here will be finished next pay - day. The contractors for the Excelsior drive have done their 200 feet and have stripped a small por tion of the leader in the face which they think is the Swedish Crown. If so the company will start men to work to make room for use. There is a nice leader in the All Nations drive. This drive is far enough for the winze to connect with the Excelsior level. A few pounds of specimens were ob tained from the Van level during the week. The City of Auckland. The City of Auckland manager reports for the fortnight, having taken out 247 lbs of specimens principelly from the stope going in from No. 1 pass, and a few pounds from the leading stopes, making alto gether 6591b9, which is expected to increase.

(From our own Correspondent.) This day, The "Guardian" in Terror.

The action of the Guardian in giving up Mr. Smith's name has excited great surprise. The general opinion here is that having determined on publishing the letter it should have stood by the writer, though the latter made no seciet of it. The letter was pub lished the morning after the Times published an exaggerated list of awards, and went on to say, " The Editor must have known that information was prematurely and dishonestly divulged.- This flagrant breach of decency in journalism is in keeping with what was done in the notorious Ward-Chapman case, in which the same journal did not scruple to publish what purported to be private telegrams sent by Judge Ward to Mr. Vogel, as afterwards turned out, has been obtained in discreditable manner by a certain member of the legal fraternity, who Was also subsequently discovered to have descended to the consummate baseness of h*ving spies to dog the footsteps of Judge Ward in private life. It is bad enough that there should be such persons in our midst as the individual whom Mr Hawkins felicitously described as the Judas Iscariot among arbi trators, and the legal gentleman above referred to, tut it is worse still that one of the leading journals should pander tppeurient curiosity by becoming the vehicle of publica tions involving gross and manifest breaches f flood faith;" Mr Macassey has sent letters to the judge, and every member of the legal Probably an effort will be made to get the Ward-Chapman commission evidence imblislied. . * wv, Mrs- Cyrus Haley. >f§yhty Bench yesterday sent Mrs Cyrus the Refuge. m , New Chums. arrivals named Welsh have been

A curious case was heard in the B.M Court yesterday morning. An iudignant father summoned a schoolmaster named Piikirgton for brutally caning his son—a lad about ten or twelve years old. There were several black and blue spots on the boy's back, but the evidence shewed that he was a rebellious young sub ject and deserved chastising. A great deal more was made out of the case than the circumstances warranted. The Bench thought the punishment a trifle too severe, but con sidered there had been much provocation, and inflicted a fine of only £1. Young Whitaker was for the defence. This is the second occasion he has pleaded here iv court; he is well up to his work.

This day. Intercolonial Mercantile Conferenc The Wellington Chamber of Commerce decided last night to decline to be repre sented at a conference of delegates from the various Chambers of Commerce in the Aus tralian Col Dnirs, as suggested by the Bris bane Chamber. The Chamber also discussed the question of harbour and port dues, and a committee was appointed to obtain informa tion as to the charges in other ports, and to bring those matters and increased wharf accommodation- under the notice of the proper authorities. The chairman, in' the course of his remarks, characterizeel the charges of the port as disgraceful. Captain Mclntyre said they might well be reduced one half. Another described the wharf accom modation as absurdedly insufficient.

CHRISTCHURCH.

[Per Press Telegram Agency.] Thursday, Aid to Municipalities.

One more attempt is to be made to get justice done to the municipalities by the Provincial Council. Mr Bluett will move that 100,000 acres of land and £20,000 be given as an endowmant for municipalities, the annual proceeds from the former to be distributed pro rata according to popula tion, and payment of the £20,000 to extend over three years, Very little hope of the motion being carried.

"FRA DIAVOLO."

This favorite burletto, containing parodies and ludicrous representations, was performed for the second time last evening'in.the Pon sonby Hall, and (despite the windiness of a blowy night) had the effect of drawing to gether a large and respectable audience. The drop-scene displayed a faitbful view of the west side of Windsor Castle, overlooking the English Thames. The inner scenery was no less beautiful in its representations of the woods and recks of brigandage. The burletta. is in heroic verse, not the composition of Lord Byron, but by Henry Byron, of Manchester, one of the most prolific writers of burlesque of the present age. Fra Diavolo was one of this writer's first pieces, and was presented first in 1858, at the, Strand Theatre. The members of the Pon sonby Dramatic Company have worked very hard week by week in order to make "Fra Diavolo" a complete success, and they deserve great credit. The piece is in five acts; the first represents the "Jolly Brigands" tavern, the staid host and the pretty Zeilina, the interesting barmaid who loves to praise her own good looks before the mirror, and professes a great deal of love for a love-sick captain. The second part shews the evil consequences of a strike among the brigands, but which is happily quelled by their spirited leader. The third part exhibits the Chamber of Zeilina, and the sleeping beauty reposing. The brigands are resolved to settle her, but their hearts fail them, and the deed is not done. The fourth part pictures a scene of domestic felicity between Lord and Lady Allcash. My lord, a venerable gentleman who takes the world as he finds it, is not very particular apparently whether my lady is pleased or not. The lady, how ever, performed her part admirably, and sang " Poor Mary Ann," in a most effective manner. The fifth part shows the tea gardens of the jolly brigands, with its songs, dialogue, and festive associations. The orchestra played a variety of selections between the parts, but in some of them it was evident that a little more practice would tend to greater proficiency. The songs, especially the "Simple Mountaineer," "I've Bighed and suffered longi" and the trio between three of the principal characters was ably rendered, and re-demanded by the audience. The two ladies who represented Lady Allcash and Zeilina were very success ful in their delineations, and received fre quent gratulations of the listeners. On the whole, the members of the Ponsonby Dramatic Club achieved a dramatic triumph hitherto unattained by any preceding amateur dramatic society in Auckland.

This Hall, the best situated of any in Auckland, and unsurpassed for its acoustic qualities, will be let for ten guineas per week, or two guineas for a single even ing. These low terms prove the proprietors are doing their share towards proving cheap amusement.—Umbrellas are necessary com panions on winter evenings, and Holloway and Garlick, having a very large stock, have resolved to clear them out at unheard-of prices, and have marked down : gents good silk umbrellas to 7s 6d, 9s lid, 12s 6d alpaca to 4s 6d, 6s 6d ; ladies' alpaca to 3s lid ; silks to 6s lid.

An entertainment was given in the Catholic Institute, Onehunga, last evening by the pupils of St. Mary's School. The entertain ment was all that could be desired, and re ceived the full approbation of all present. The following programme was selected for the occasion:—l)vet, " Flaut of the Fairies," by the Misses leahy, Donovan, Player, Bonner, and Grahame \ glee, "See our Oars," Ac., the full strength of the performers; recitation by Master Cullen was well rendered. A duett by the Misses Careys reflect great credit on children of such tender years. Beeit.tion, " Casablanca," by Master Leahy, was acknowledged by all present to be the gem of the first part of the pro gramme. Part second : Vocal duet, "Minute Gun at Sea," by Miss Fuller aud Master Cullen received loud reports of approba tion. Song and chorus, "Mill May," by the full strength of the company, shewed a good effect of well-trained voices. A drama, entitled the witch of Rosenburg. Countess of Bosenburg, Missleahy ; Lottie, the School Mistress, Miss Shale ; Frau Plumpess, Miss Flayers ; Courtess (con fidental Maid), Miss Fullers ; Frau H uckers, M iss Donavau; Frau Len nell, Mi.s Greenwood. This drama was well leceived, and reflects gnat credit on the performers, as also the Sisters of St, Mai'y's Convent, for the very able manner in which the children were trained. This brought one of the most pleasant evening's entertainment to a close that has been in Onehunga for a long time.

A Lunatic at Large

Intelligence was. received in town to-day that a man nam.d Arthur had gone away into the bu&h from Messrs Low and Motion's mill, and it was feared from his eccentric behaviour he would do himself an injury if left alone. It appears that the man referred to has been employed at the mill since last Saturday. He has not been long in the colony, and is addicted to drink. Yesterday morning he left his work and went away for the day into the bush. He stayed away all night, and re turned at six this morning in a dripping con dition, having evidently fallen into a creek or water-hole. He w.os in a moat excited state, and said he was condemned to be shot at 7 o'clock. Shortly before that time he went off again, and made for the ti-tree. A man named James rode into town and in formed the police, and a mounted constable has been sent out to search for the lunatic.
