FOOTBALL.

The crack jristoh of the season—viz., New ZeaJa-a mrsm The World—is being played at th* North Shore this afternoon. It is to herfgretted that two of the best players— Messrs. Dud er-and Dunnett—are unable to Way : the former owing to indisposition, and the latter through being detained at the Thames by the breakdown of the Hauraki. The lateness of the hour—three o'clock—at which the match begins precludes our giving anY account of it to-day, but we trust to be able to Of' proper justice to the contestants on Monday.

Vexatious Government Delays. Through vexatious Government delay the Te Pake block will be again cropped and occupied by natives instead of Europeans. The land having been paid for long ago makes thiß state of affairs inexcusable. As usual it is the fault of Wellington.

MEETING OF NEWTON RATEPAYERS.

A meeting of the ratepayer! of the Newton district was held last evening in Jeune's Ball of Progress, East-streeJ^ Newton, for the I purpose of considering matters of local importance. Mr J7&. Wilkes in the chair. Th« chairman complained of the condition of wvtral streets in the locality wlbich had been sadjy neglected by the! Board. He opposed the, designs of the O*W Council to'annex NetHon to the city.-4 °Tr Jeune believed the tnurteeß had done & j-it they could for the district, and ifp ley had erred in judgment, their «Motives were good.

W-fre '"^S^ 8^ is blbproVe of borrowing f*t) n in the loca hvy^Vx¥: -l^er^^s of opinion- that judicious borrowing, would be of*great ad vantage to the ratepayers.— Mr Cherry had ccme fearlessly foiward as one of the trustees and was prepared to answer any questions that might be put to him. "With regard to borrowing of money, the person who brought the question fppward should answer it. He must say that Mr Jeune had acted properly in calling the meeting together for discussing matters of local interest—Sergeant-Major Haslem expressed himself in favor of the trustees, who had done their part well, and had improved the district consi* derably j* the workjmost needed had been done in the district.—Mr. Wilkes said, in respect of the streets of Newton, that the ratepayers had petitioned the Board, but had been told by tbat body that they must put their hands in lleir pockets and do the work themselves. He named one street that had remained in a dangerous and unsafe con dition for six years ;j the street was in a most disgraceful state, and should receive prompt attention as:it was the entrance into the district.—After some further dis cussion, without any resolution being passed, the meeting closed with votes of thanks to Mr Jeune and the Chairman.

INQUEST THIS DAY.

An inquest was held this sfternoon at the Freeman's Bay Hotel, before T. M. Philson, Esq., M.D., on the body of Joseph Corea, sometimes called Siva, a seaman on board the cutter Rob Roy, who lost his life yes terday morning in the harboiir by drowning. Mr. George Campbell, foreman. Gerard. John Francis, a man of color,* deposed : I am a seaman on board the cutter Rob Roy, at present anchoredin the stream, off the fireweod wharf. Knew deceased ; bad known, him five months as a seaman on the Bob Roy and formerly of tbe Albion ; he was about forty years of age ; hs was from the Azores ; was a sober man. Last saw bim alive about five o'clock yesterday morning. He and I were the only persons on board. We had dropped anchor on the West ,side of the Breakwater. He told me to go below and tiprn in while he coiled the i oppe on I deck. In about ten minntes after laying down, I saw a schooner yassing the item of the Rob Roy, immediately went on|deck to see what vessel it was, fearing she mighr run foul of our dingey, which was {fastened to the stem floating. Iv. as surprised that I did not see deceased. In looking for him saw his pilot-coat on the companion ; hunted for him until ten minutes past bLx ; got into the dingy and searched round the Breakwater, but could not see him ; went on shore and told the Captain of the circum stance. .

Captain James McGarney and Sergeant Martin gave Bimilar evidence when the jury after a brief consultation returned a verdict of Found Drowned. -

ANOTHER CASE.

Another case, similar to that which ended fatally with Corea, occurred to-day, on the wharf. A man fell overboard under precisely similar cirpum stances, but, being a good swimmer, he swam to the watermen's stepal, and was rescued without injury beyond, a severe ducking. i
