~ ml4 . d they decided to send a letter informing .Jr. Sterndale that unless he at once laid doAvn his arms and surrendered Aye Avould set fire to his house, and that if he came out Avith arms in his hands Aye would fire upon him. HE RESOLVES TO DIE FIGHTING. Mr. Sterndale sent a letter saying that he Avas determined not to be taken affve, and his Avifc added aP. S. to the letter that she was resolved to die Avith her husband. We then prepared to set fire to the thatch of the bouse. Rut before doing so Aye sent another letter to give the AA*ife a chance to escape, and Aye said that if he would not surrender Aye were prepared to carry out our threat. Mr Sterndale sent a reply, request ing us to wait until the f oUowing morning. We did so, and ceased Avatching the house, and retired to rest. SURRENDER OF THE FORT. On Tuesday, October 24th, Mr Herd, who had been left in charge by Mr Henderson when the latter Avent away in the Ryno, received a letter from Mr Sterndale offering to lay down his arms if guaranteed his liberty and freedom from insult until the Ryno sailed for Auckland. Mr Herd Avith the concurrence of the Europeans consented. In the afternoon Mr Herd went to the house Avith the Europeans on ,tlie island, as Mr Sterndale had ex pressed a wish that all the Europeans should be present to witness tbc surrender. From tbe statement of those present, I am led to believe that Mr Sterndale Avas very much excited, and used very violent lan guage. Nothing further Avas done until the arrival of the Ryno, on Nov. 3rd. It was then arranged that the Krienihilda should be placed in charge of the chief officer of the Ryno, and that I should come on to Auckland as a passenger. On NoAr. 6th took on board the Kriemhilda's cargo on the Ryno. On Nov. 7th sailed in the Ryno for Auckland. Passengers :Mr G. Henderson, Mr Herd, Capt. Medcalfe, Mr and Mrs Sterndale. CHARACTER OF THE ISLAND OF SUWARROAV. When the Ryno first went down there, it was an uninhabited island. There are about 70 cocoanut trees on it. Tbe principal island—Home Island —is about 140 acres in area. Messrs Henderson and Macfarlane sent a carpenter there to make up the pearl shell boxes. laa'us verymuclisiirprisedAvhen I found the carpenter making gun carraiges, and tbe timber for pearl shell boxes Avas lying untouched. A powder magazine bad been erected, and there were three cast-iron guns. When Mr Sterndale went in the Ryno, be took these guns Avith him. He had also signal rockets, and blue lights, to amuse the natives. Messrs Henderson and Macfarlane built a lighthouse on the island, and a large brick reservoir for Avater. They also built a coral Avharf, over 100 yards long. They sent materials for a tramway on tbe wharf, also a large crane. They had spent a great deal of money on the place. CAPTAIN FERNANDEZ' INTERVIEW AVITH MR. BARSTOW. I have applied for a Avarrant from Mr. Barstow on an information charging Mr. Sterndale Avith shooting at me, with intent to murder. This morning Mr. BarstOAV informed me be had no juris diction. Perhaps it is as Avell to knoAV this, so that henceforth, traders wiJ 1 know how to act in cases of emergency of this description. I presume, had this shot taken effect, there would have been no jurisdiction and my wife and six children would have been left to the tender mercies of the world without redress for the murder.

To the Editor of the STAR. Sir, —I have read tne above, and certify that it is correct in every particular. Thos. Fernandez.

Mr Sterndale Contemplates Pro ceedings Against Captain Fernandez.

We learn this afternoon that Mr Stem dale is much disappointed at the Auckland police |autl lorities refusing to grant the warrant against himself, asjhe felt perfectly confident of turning the tables against his accusers. He hoav contemplates initiating proceedings against Captain Fernandez and others, but the exact form the charges Avill take is not yet determined.

THE ANTIQUITY OF MAN.

Mr. WALLACE has been lecturing to the scientific bodies in England on the origin and antiquity of man. He said :"A feAV years ago, men of science had professed total io-norance as to the mode of origin of all liA^iug things : hoav they seemed to claim an almost complete knoAvledge of the whole progress of the universe, from the first speck of living protoplasm up to the highest development of the human intellect. As opposition often proved the best incentive to progress, he proposed to bring forward a feAV difficulties in the way of the theories of man's descent hoav commonly received. I The oldest known skulls—those of the En-is and Cro-Maijtion Caves-are quite as developed as those of civilized races ot the present clay. 2. Tbe oldest cave dwell ings contain a variety of tools, of carvings and drawings, which imply a state of civi lization much higher than that of modern sava-e races. 3. Professor Miyart has shown that man must have existed in something approaching to his. present form during the tertiary period, and that there is no bridging ot the gull between him and the ape. 4. I here is abundant evidence that, so far from there bavin"" been a gradual development of his intellect, our most distant glimpses of the past arc still of a world peopled as now with men, both civilized and savage Quoting herefrom an address by Mr. Albert Mott, at Liverpool, be carries his hearers to Easter Island in the Pacific, where arc hundreds of gigantic stone images, weighing from 4 to 100 tons, and well sculptured. Thence to North America, where are mounds and earthworks in the Mississippi valley, recently brought to light, overgrown with dense forests, 'thousands of years old, and showiim" enormous camps, vast sacred enclo sures sepulchral mounds containing met. J ornaments and sculptured stone pipes, and relics of animals modelled m relief on a col lossal scale. When. North America was first settled in by Europeans, the Indian tribes had no tradition of any preceding race ot higher civilization than themselves. Yet Aye hud that such a race existed—that they must have been populous, and have lived under some established government, there are signs that they practised agricul ture lar»eB~ as indeed they must have done to have" up ported a population capable ot executing such gigantic works in such pro fu -on ; for it fs°stated that the mounds and earthworks of various kinds m the State of Ohio alone amount to 11,000 or 12,000. Mr Wallace took as his third case the extraordinary precision of measurements in the Great Pyramid, and argued from the whole that "while ill material progress thero has been a, tolerably steady advance n an's intellectual and moral development reachec almost it highest level in a very mote past," and that "the course of -i J development has been far less simple -J. direct than has been hitherto supposed.

Suicide in the Domain.

THE MISSING MAN HORNE DIS COVERED HANGING TO A TREE.

ABOUT tAvo o'clock this afternoon, a little boy named Ernest Clifton Beale Avas sitting reading in the Domain bush, close to Messrs Mason s gardens, when he experienced in his nostrils a A Tery unpleasant smell. On getting up to ascertain the cause, ho found the dead body of a man hangiug from a branch of a tree about fifteen yards oft', the feet being only about six inches from the ground. He at once ran to the house of Constable Jackson and in formed that officer of what he had seen. Jackson repaired to the spot and at once identified the body as that of the mis sing man Mr Home, avlio has been absent from his house in- York-street, Parnell, since Friday last. He cut the corpse doAvn, and, as it Avas in a very advanced state of decomposition, a shell was procured, and in it the remains of the unfortunate man Avere conveyed to the dead house, Avhere they await the inquest, Avhich Avlil be held to-morrow. Mr Home Avas 75 years of age, and in a very iiupOA-erished state. fjThere is no doubt that the cause of the old man's committing suicide, Avas depression consequent on bis realizing the fact that be Avas beyond Avork, and had nothing to maintain himself in his declining years.

THE ENGLISH CRICKET MATCH.

A meeting of the Selection committee, in con nection with the aboA re match, was called for yesterday evening, but at the time appointed, only two gentlemen, Messrs. Yates and Dufaur Avere present. Mr. W. Robinson being at the Thames, could not well show up, but the reasons for the absence of Messrs. Rees and Lankham do not appear. We understand Mr Lankham sent Avord that he would agree to what was done by the others. The two gentlemen present pro ceeded to select thirty players, to whom notes should be sent requesting each to keep himself in practice, so as to be in trim to All a place in the Auckland team should ho be called upon to do so. We cannot compliment the Selection Committee upon their action up to the present, but trust they Avill wake up to the importance of tho work they have undertaken and discharge their duties with some vigour. The following are the names of those selected for practice :—G. R. Johnson, W. W . Robinson, R. J. Yates. W". F. Buckland. H. E. Cotton. Blackett, F. S. Dufaur, W- L. Rees, C. Gloeson, E. Willis, . .

SOME GERMAN PECULIARITIES.

(From the London Telegraph),

Many curious strata of the German character are are laid open to inquiring eye in these advertise ment sheets. One of the most remarkable is the German's fondness of publicity, Another is his insatiate passion for titular distinction. It may be that this proclivity is not inborn, but rather the outcome of the very hearty contempt tor idleness generally entertained in the Fatherland, Avhich feeling generates a requirement, as it Avere, that everybody should quite distinctly and unmistakeably be something and prove it. It is not too much to say that every German uses and is described by a titular predicate ot some sort; if he have no right to any coming to him through career, profession, or even trade, be calls himself "Rentier" or "Pnva tier" (foreign titles these, surely !), "Ritterguts besitzer," or Avhat not strange fungus-like desig nate. Thus, you read in the " Fan alien . ach richten," or family neAVS of each Berlin Journal, that Mr. Private-Person Sourherrmg betrothed, Avhile Mr. Knights-Estate-Owner Thumb is become a happy father. (I translate names as Avell as titles, litterally, throughout this letter, and guarantee their authenticity.) Men s titles, hereditary, official, or conventional, are in variably adopted by their Avivcs, and accompany the latter, as Avell as the former, doAvn to the very brink of the grave ; for they are recapitu lated Avith undeviating formality in the obituary announcements, also coming under the head of "Family News." Only the other day I read in tho "National Zeitung" an advertisement to the effect that "Widowed Mrs. Master Chimney sweep Growl, has softly gone to sleep in the Lord." ___

THEATRE ROYAL.

" Sir Simon Simple" met with a most satisfac tory reception last evening, at the Theatre Royal, from a numerous and intelligent com pany of citizens. All the characters ot the piece were distinct, and each member had a part to perform, not simple and inactive, but one which required effort, and ailbrded scope for the display of the actor's abilities. Mr. Lingard was the hero of the piece, and his-immense drollery and originality of style formed the crowning success of the piece. Mr. Hoiloway, as Murga troyd, played well and Avon deserved applause. Mr. Rede was Mould all over, from the crouch ing husband of a tyrant wife, to the tea-table loafer with the butterless crust. Miss Alice Duiming's work in the comedy Avas compar tivcly trifling, but such as it was gave evidence of the true artist, Mrs. Collier and Mr. Law rence also did Avell. The " Weavers,' as on the previous evening, concluded the entertainment. This evening is termed the "Ladies Grand Fashionable Night," and Avill open with a pretty one-act comedy, entitled. "My Wifes Lover,, and conclude with a nautical piece, iho Admi ral " The great attraction of to-night, however, will be tho famous Lingard sketches, with ac comnanving songs, as will be seen by advertise ment, and to Avhich Aye call the attention of our readers.

SOIREE AND CONCERT AT DEVON PORT HALL.

A soiree and concert, in aid of the funds ot the Devonport District School, was held last night in the Devonport Hall, and proved in the highest degree successful. The hall was gaily decorated for the occasion with flags, flowers, &c, and when the guests assem bled the scone was a very pretty one. At half past six proceedings were inaugurated by the company sitting down to a well-furnished tea, in providing which the ladies ot the district had been intrustriously liberal. We noticed the following, busy dispensing the fragrant essence, and othl'r good kings: Mesdames Bullock, Rates Bartlcy, Philcox, Niccol, M. Niccol, CMncron, Smith, and Misses Duder (2), and Isaacs At half past seven the tables, were cleared for the concert, but before the singing commenced, Mr. M. Niccol made a statement ot the circumstances which, had led to tiie entertainment being organised. A new school house had lately been built, which had cost £113 Of this sum the Board ot Education had contributed £120, and their .present Pu^ose was to raise the balance and Avipe off tbc debt Mr Niccol went at length into the condition oi their schools, and made a graceiul allusion to to liberality of Mr J. S. Macfarlane in dividing his honorarium among tho Waitemat.a school districts Ho referred to the probability of a drl. school being opened shortly, and concluded with an expression of thanks to the ladies who had liberal v provided Ihe good things for the tea The concert was then commenced, and the niwrramme gone through Avithout.a hitch.

Mr H Brett was encored for his rendering of the "Vilkvm Blacksmith," and "Peggy Dear', and Mr GradwoU received the same compliment for "The Charge of the Light Brigade. The (dees by Messrs Howden, Burnham, wiSrifr^on and Bartley, Avere highly appre ciated and were among" the best things ot the evenhig.

Mr. Graham said that he had seen Mr. Whitaker upon the subject, and the Go vernment was most anxious to close the present cemetery, and as soon as possible he would turn his attention to the matter. He a. is desirous that a cemetery company should performed, and it was for the meeting to consider Avhat. steps should be taken tOAvards the object in view. Mr James Russell then read a paper in reference to the proposed cemetery, Avith estimates of tbe probable cost of labor. thereon.'

The meeting Avas proceeding as our reporter left.

The biography of Mr John Wilson, the proprietor of Wilson's Hippodrome, has been written in the "Melbourne Herald." He is described as a man of prodigious energy, and yet fiill^of soft sentimentality. He will pick up a little child and kiss it just after he has blasphemed at a clumsy carpenter Avith horrid imprecations. The public have a right to knoAv where they can invest money to the best advan tage, and we confidently say at the City Hall Arcade. They do not profess to sell "under cost price," but Aye observe their moderate prices in every department secure this establishment a large and steady cash business. The Show Rooms, 166 feet long, contain the greatest variety of Carpets in NeAV Zealand.
