A special correspondent from Gisborne telegraphs to the Balbj Telegraph a letter which appears in tbe Poverty Bay Herald this morning from Judge Kogan saying that the statement made by the Native Minister xa the House relative to the extensive pur chases made by J.

Contrary to expectation, and at the eleventh hour, Mr Morgan has been brought forward to contest the election with the Hon. Mr Fox, Mr Fox was proposed by Mr Watt, and seconded by Mr J. Dingan ; Mr Morgan by Mr A. C, Foaks and Mr John Howie. Mr Fox is likely to win, but it is hard to say, as electors 'think that something more posi tive should be known as to his willingness to stand.

LECTURE ON "VENICE."

The Key A, R, Tomlinson, of Onehunga, gave his ■promised lecture last evening on "Venice," at the Young Men's Christian Association rooms. Colonel Hinltfitn occupied the chair, and. prayer was offered by Dr Maunsell. The »cv lecturer visited Venice in 1872. but his description of it was ex tremely meagre, and son.c disappointment was naturally felt by those of the audience who were desirous of knowing somefchiag of the life of the Venice of to-dny. Mr Tomlinson gave a pretty des cription of his feelings on gliding alone: th« grand canal In a gondola by moonlight. The fine old palaces, satd the lecturer, have a dissipated appear ance by daylight, but by the silvry light of the moon, these defects are not seen, and the spectator is reminded of the gorgeous palaces described by the poet. The lecturer then gave a rapid sketch of the history of Venice from the period of its foundation ■when the tyrannies of Attila and his Huns were creeping over the Italian states, which caused many of the inhabitants of Verona, Padua, and other places to seek refuge in the islands upon which the city was built. The lecturer next traced the gradual rise of the city, and its merchant princes, and related the well-known story of the foseari family and their sufferings, which story was told with considerable power. At the closa of the 15th century, Italy was eaten np by feuds, and Venice stoid firm under the shelter of its republic, but which was ™ ore of arepublic in nama than In action. In the succeeding century, the power of Venice bsgan to decline, the people lost their polilical Influence; the council of ten bought the suffrages of the higher orders, and ruled as they willed, and, in after years, ■when Napoleon was carrying on his Italian campiagns, Venice was too weak to resist the encroachment of the Oorslcan tyrant, and consequently the beautiful city became the prey of -Austria, The lecturer, having plan end at the public buildings as shewn by Mr Crook in his fine views, expressed hi 3 belief that as long as the gnverning power of * state is animated by a spirit of self-sacriflce, that state will prosper, but when a set of place-hunters pet at the head of affairs, that prosperity will naturally decline and disapper. The lecture was illustrated by Mr Crook, who e-rhibitsd St. Mark's square, the Doge's palace, and other Venetian scenes. Thanks having befin given te the lectnrer, the chairman, Mr Crook, and Professnr Bntschkow, the chairman announced that the next lec'ure would h« delivered by Dr Kllis, the subject "Tennyson,'' in the course of which seve ral ladies and gentlemen would sing some of the poet's songs,

(ADVERTISEMENT.)

(To the Editor of the Star.) Sir, —Will you kindly insert this in your paper. Reply to " False Statements," pub lished in the Star, September 16th. Firstly, the man mentioned by Fitzgerald, that I assaulted, was trespassing on Mr Backland's land, at Tamaki, which I had charge of till Mir Buekland's lease expired, and done my duty satisfactory to my employer. Secondly, it has bsen a regular habit of Nicolson's to Bhoot pheasants on Sundays, which all the neighbours know. Mr Golan actually saw the man shoot a pheasant which dropped on his land on a Sunday. I reported the shoot ing on Sundays to the policeman at- Panmure previous to any assault case ; he came there one Sunday morning but saw nothing, the same afternoon shooting commenced again ; and on Anqust 7*h I positively state that I saw the lady or child, so called by Fitzgerald, carrying two pheasants and one water hen with Nicolson. Thirdly, Nicholson nor Fitzgerald ever saw me dressing scabby sheep. I have dressed their feet for foot rot, but T do not think either a baotman or a drill iastructor would know the difference between the two diseases. Fourthly, people that live iv glass houses should never throw stones about drunkenness, and knowing as Fitz gerald must do -what I have snen he should keep quiet.—l am, &c, J. A. Brain, late of West Tamaki.

NEWMARKET LITERARY INSTITUTE CONCERT.

Tub seoond concert oh behalf of the funds of the above Institution was given last eveniDg. There was a pood attendance, and a varied programme was carried out in excellent style, The Hall shewed an improvement since the first concert w«s held in its stage portion. A well painted scene, by Mr Thorn ton, covers the greater part of the back, while a new proscenium has been put up by the committee, the whole bavin? a good effect. Last night's entertain ment differed essentially in character from the one' previously given as instead of some 20 or 30 ladies assisting with their sweet voices in the vocal perfor mance, last night's dispensed with their services, and substituted! a variety of more masculine species of amii'ement for the audience, such as the dancing by Mr Fox, and the conundrums (original), one of the latter being especially liked— "Why is Sir Julius Fogel like a bald-headed man?" Bones, to whom the conundrum was propounded, didn't know, and gave it up, and amid touch laughter the answer was given— "Because he c»n't turn Grey." Other jokes produced a good snare of merriment. Of the concert part we can but give a brief outline. The overture was suc ceeded by the opening chorus. " Men of Harleoh," by Meisrs George, Morgan. Marks, Fox, and other gentlemen, members of the Glee Club, acting Christys. Mr Morgan next sang "Bell Mahono." and shortly afterwards at the r3quest of Mr Hesketh, who was suffering from a severe cold, took the latter gentleman's duty of singing the song " Tis for him that mother's weeping " Mr Morgan is a tower of strength in the singing line, and has on many former occasions had to do double duty, and does it well. Mr Fox gave in his appreciable style, " Gal that I c»lls mine "Mr Fred Marks gave in most excellent styl« the song " Little German Band," and so far gratified the fastidious taste of the audience as to gain the only encore of the fisst part of the concert. "Ringthe bell softly," was sung by Mr Pees George, who is a carefnl and accurate vocalist. The Minstrels rode out of the first part of the programme on " Brown's horse of San Francisco," fand carried the house with them. Part second opened with a well played selection by the band. Mr Fox next gave his wonderfnlghoe dance, and was fallowed by the Minstrels with "O, who will ocr the downs so free." Mr Howden gaye a recitation, " Tha Highwayman." The part songs followed— " Monks of St Bernard," Hardy Norsemen," "Integer Vitse," andr" Evening" gave great satUfacfon The " Larboard Watoh," by Messrs Howden and Morgan, was well rendered. Mr Howden sang throughout the concert in irreproachable style. Mr Hesketh has, f0 years taken an lactive and important part in the musical efforts of the district, and it would be well for that suburban world of entertainment if he could

get Hie assistance ol talent; Hkejthat of Messrs George, jworgan, Henderson, Marks, and otherß who livs Within a moderate distance of the Hall, and establish on a permanent footing <-ice Club. MrPor'sper fojm.nces were veiy popular, nnd give quite a feature in the entertainment. Mr "Wrtelev proposed th»nk* to the gentlemen who gave their services, which was earned unanimously.

THE NEW ATHENÆUM.

T&b meeting of the subscribers td the proposed AtheDsSam was held yesterday afternoon in the largo room of the New Zealand Insurance Company. The chairman, Mr Shera, read lettsro Of apology from several gentlemen who nould not be in attendance, and letters of protestation aeaiasi; the premium teing'given to " Fido." Cavtiin Burton was then called upon to spaihl, and in the opening part of his speech, said that t was desirable, as lie was about to leave for England at once, that some arrancemeots should be made for carryicg nut the propoted institution. Such an insti was greatly to be desired, as most person? admitted, in a growing city like Auckland. There svas a list of 750 subscribers, from the Marquis of Norrmnby down wards, there was also a provisional directory of in fluence. They had a capitai site, and substantial iGiindatibns, the cost of which was only £2000. and as soon as the plans were complete the members of the Mechanic's Institute would be prepared to amalgamate. They had decided to sell their property, and lend the proceeds of tbe sale to the Aihanseum, at a nominal rate of intt-reHt Tim Mechanic s Institute hid done a good work, but it sdiy had gone by The Masons of the city had not jet moved in the matter, but the promoters of the New Athenwum relied upon the Masons for their strongest support. The members of the Mechanic's Institute had siught tbe advice of Mr Whitaker on the matter of amalgamating with the Athsnceum, and Mr Whitaber was favouvable to the proposed amalgamation, but informed them that it would be necessary to get a bill through the honsa, before their object could be effected. The passing of the bill, Captain Burton thonght, could be easily accomplished, but not during the present session, owing to press of business at Wellington. He w uld suggfst that a sub committee of five or seven gentlemen should be appointed to carry out the object. Captain Hurrison and Mr Weston were willing to act in that capacity. Every thing in connection with the prrject had been .suc cessful as far us tbey had procetcbd, and he hoped it would, not be allowed to elapse during his absence in England, t.ut he feared it would, unless it was defin itely settled as to who were to act in his place. Dr Ellis_ moved, and Mr Cosgave seconded, " That the decision of the judges in the awarding of the premium for the plans of the bulWing ba approved by this meeting.'' Carried.SfAfier further discussion, inwhicb Mr G. S. Graham, Mr Pierce, and other gentlemen took part a vote of thanks ww passed to Captain Burton for his labours. Mr Graham stated that hew as ready to take up £200 worth of shares. It was also propos ed by Mr Oraham. and seconded by Mr F.J. Moss, and carried, "That Dr Camp bell, Dr Ellis. Col. HaulUin, and Mesrss J. M. Clark, J, Shera, G-. I. Pierce, and J. E. Pounds be appointed a sub-committee for the purpose named. Mr Cosgrave hoped that when Captain Burton should return to Auckland, he should find the Athenaum completed, and a service of plate waiting his accept ance. The meeting separated with votes of thanks to the press and the chairman.

MELBOURNE,

September IS

The disaster to the City of Melbourne with the loss of a number of valuable race horses, and the wreck of the Dandenong, with the los 3of 57 livas, have caused considerable sensation." All Nbopes of the Dandenong are now abandoned. For a time the hopes of those having relatives on board were kept up by rumours and hopes that the vessel had or would be able to safely reach the land, but when a portion of wreckage was found the last hope was abandoned. It speaks well for the discipline on board that all the women and children were first cared for, and that only one woman remained on the steamer, and that of her own free will as she Would not leave her invalid husband and child. Several of the passengers refused to trust the boats and some preferred to wait for the captain's boat, which was never launched, as the captain and all that remained on board went down never to be hearc* of more. Many were the sad scenes, but there appears to have been the greatest calmness on board, and an entire absence of confusion. It also speaks volumes for the men that the women and children were first attended to. The Captain of the barque Albert William is also entitled to considerable praise. A fund has been started and daily subscriptions are announced. In parliament the Education Bill ban been passed, and the Electoral Billis being consi dered in committee, and at present no amend ment of any inportauce have been accepted. At the theatre Mra Scott Siddons' enter tainment comes to a close this week, and Mr Edwin Adams, tragedain, opens. Wilson's Circus is also in preparation. The Markets are strengthening.
