His Honor asked if Mr Pdddleis account Was included in a cheque bent to tb blank. Witness thought 'hat it might bye been. His Honor considered that tlii accused •was a bad bookkeeper, but he hadividently paid all the cheques iuto the bank,nistakis had been made, bufc the accouutthad not teen sufficiently investigated to fix tbe charge upon the prisoner. If Weson had appropriated cash, it must be proved, John O'Donntill deposed that he ealfc at the store in June and July, and hat made regular payments to Weaton, but he could mot speak as to dates, nor was he posiive as to the amounts.

William Eidler, publican of Mrcer, remembered paying his July account it 14s for goods, paid by chtque (produced) cited August 3rd could not swear that he pid it to Weston on that date.

Mr Itees then addressed the jury for the defence; and dwelt at some length onthe •confused state of the accounts, and that he evidence failed to establish the chargeof embezzlement against the prisoner.

The Piako Swamp Sale.—A Clear Loss of $520,000.

(To the Fdifcor of the Evknikg Ftak.) Sir,- There appears to be some doubb in the public mind as to whether any actual loss to the land reve aue was sustained by the surreptitious alienation of the Piako swamp. On this point I v &w venture to address you. In the beginniDcv of the year 1873 I made enquiiies abou',; this swamp, which resulted in a determination to endeavour to acquire ic. I found that, no Sl ] e o f public lands could legally be r Aa ,^ e without; a survey and public auction. I entered into negotiations (in February „ 1873), with other parties in Eaglan'j ) for the purpose of forming; an associ.' ,»tion to purchase, reclaim, and eect;e this 4and. I informed my fri^nls that it cou no t be got for less than five shillings V jT acre, and I was prepared to recommend 'giving seven shillings and sixpence rather than lose it. While my negotiations were still pending, I found to my astonishment that the swamp had been secretly disnosed of. Feeling safe in the certainty that if any other persons were in the market they would lave to compete with me at public; auction, I never thought of making my intentions mown in the proper quarter until my arrangements should be completed ; but if, "before this was done, the land had been auctioned in the usual manner, I would have given £20.000 cash for it, taking the risk myself of afterwards forming the reclamation association. It is clear, then, that a Joss of .£IO,OOO is capable of proof and a further jprobable loss of £10,000 more, as in open ■competition the gentleman who got the ;swamp for 2s 6d per acre, would most likely have made me pay the 7s 6d I was prepared to go to. We are so accustomed now to talk of public mnnev in sums of eigbt figures, that a loss of £20,000 seems a trifling matter ; and if that was all, and no principle was in volved, it might not assume so much im portance, but besides this actual less and the grave breach of law, a very large loss was made in the prospective value of the land, which, if retained until the completion of the railway, would have been worth at least £100^000. Not wishing to be mixed up in any political disputes, I have not hitherto made my individual grievance in the above matter known, and I only do so now out of a sense of fairness to those who, fighting against a powerful clique for the redress of great wroDgs ir.flicted on this part of the colony, are entitled to all the support and sympathy of the people. I enclose my address, and will at some future time, if the interests of the public require ifc, come for ward and verify the above statement —I <am, &c, Piako. Auckland, January 10, 1575.

HARBOUR BOARD.—This Day.

The fortnightly meeting of the Harbour Board was held in the Board office, Fort street, this afternoon. Present: Mr. J. C. Daldy (in tbe chair) and Messrs. Buchanan, McKenzie, Oosgrave, Brett, Niccol, and O. Mays. The minu:ea of last meeting were read and confirmed. Correspondence was received from Mr. Bigelow asking for a reduction in his rent. On the motion of Mr. Cosgrave the letter was referred to the Endowment Cammitte, with power to add. a letter from Messrs. Welsh and McCabe, asking for an extension of time for their con tract. Referred to the Works Committee. THE GRAVING DOCK. The report of Mr. Errington, in reference to the proposed dock at College Point, was read to the meeting. The report concluded with the following remarks : — Ist. That deep water can be reached at a short; distance from the bluff. 2ad. That the site is fairly sheltered. 3rd. That the foundat&ons are apparently good. 4th1 That ample earbh for filling reclama tions are hand. sth. That there is little possibility of the entrance silting up, or a necessity for dredging. 6th. That independent of other considera tions outside purely professional ones, it i« not my province to enter upon. I consider the sire, taking• it altoge.hf-r, is adapted to tbe construe ion of a first-el tss dock. I estimate the cost of a dock of the following dimensions, viz:—Length of floor of dock proper, 345 ft; length of dock to ou'er caisions ground 376 ft 7 in ; on coping. 408 ft 6 in ; width of emrance at coping, 55 ffc ; between coping inside, 80 ft; depth of water on sill, o.dir.ary springs, (9); depth to invert on floor of dock, 20ft; con structed in accordance witn the plans submitted to me, including wrought iron caision3 and all appliances complete for the sum of £120.000 ; ; but that modifications could be made in the instructions of details without interfering with tb* efficiency or stability of t he dock that would reduce the onet by about £25 000, or a to-a! say of £95 000, airi' tbe »eclamatinns of a suitable site for adjuncts at £25,000 to £30,000, according to the area of land re claimed.
