DEPARTURES.

The schooner Saxon, from Lyttelton, had a narrow escape of being seriously injured this morningl. She was being berthed along the Queen-street wharf, and as she was closing up, her anchor got foul of. the bobstay, running her head right" into the wharf, knocking a hole in it, and carrying away the most of her head gear. The captain, in his quick movements, saved her from greater harm. The damage, notwithstanding the risk, is comparatively trifling, and will be rectified very soon. The accident will not retard her coming alongside and discharging. Her cargo is: i cases bacon, (55 sacks bonedust, 3 tanks malt, 203 sacks wheat, and 569 sacks flour.

The barque, John Mathucs, arrived in har bour this morning from Boston, bringing a cargo of kerosene, and Yankee notions for Mr. N. W. Goodhue. The passage has occupied about 100 days.

The brig, Janet Stuart, dropped anchor in harbour this morning. She is from Melbourne, with a cargo of stone, for Messrs. Jones & Ware. The brig has made a good passage, but. brings no later news.

A cablegram reports the arrival at London of the Fernglen, and Wellington, from New Zea land.

The brigantinc Magellan Cloud arrived at the Bay of Islands yesterday. She has about 500 barrels of oil.including 11 funs sperm. Her cruise has been very successful, but would have been more so had not 100 hands been lost, owing to the masts not being strong enough.

TIIE holiday proceedings to-day remind us of the annually recurring duty of expressing loyalty and gushing admiration of England's royal family, and more particularly of Britain's coming King. One of 1 lie most curious characteristics of the order-loving Englishman is the amount of genuine enthusiasm which lie can, when required, evolve for the person of his Sovereign. His national pride is in no wise disturbed by {he reflection that scarcely a strain of British blood Hows in the veins of the chief person in the realm, and that in the royal person the fortunes of the British Empire are tinder as purely Teutonic sway as if directed by Emperor William. Our cousins from the" Fatherland, have, with Hue philosophy, shown a high appreciation of the excellent qualities of that patient milch cow, which British law and royal produc tiveness have placed in their way. And by residence in Great Britain and conformity to English modes of education and English manners and customs, they approximate as nearly to Englishmen as race will allow them. The nation on the whole is satisfied with its royal family, and although at times the groans of the taxpayers are heard, as on a recent occasion when two members of parlia ment staggered up to the Speaker's chair with a roll bearing thousands of signatures to a petition against another big marriage . dower, yet the people recognise that Great ' Britain has enjoyed good government ; under the House of Hanover. The choice of a foreign occupant of the throne has, more than any other circumstance, rendered possible the reduction of the kingly oilice to that of a mere puppet in the hands of the constitutional rulers of the nation—the representatives of the people. If wise enough to accept this position, the heirs of the House of Hanover may be the founders of a long and prosperous line of Kings. But we can hardly suppose that the tyranny and misrule which caused the nation to seek their Sovereigns abroad, wiJl be tolerated in a race of Kings possessing no great claim to national sympathy. We believe that under the progressive Monarchal Govern ment of the last twenty years, Republican ism in Britain lias not gained a following worthy the name, and it is well that this should be so. But the lessons of the last generation would have been.thrown away did we not perceive that Kings, like Presi dents, now only rule by the will ofa people extremely jealous of their liberties. We are not disloyal enough to suppose that the Prince of Wales, whose 35th birthday was celebrated to-day throughout that vast Empire on which the sun never sets, is unconscious of these truths, or that he would wish they were otherwise. Any misunderstanding on the subject, that may in his youthful innocence nave obtained possession of his mind, has been very rudely dissipated by the stern criticism of a press which, as "the reflex of public opinion, now wields an enormous influence in the moulding of the national destinies. Notwithstanding some shortcomings and peccadillos of a genuine English type, which have been the subject of public scandal and regret, the Prince of Wales is very popular with his future subjects. He possesses a full share of the bravery and sturdy manliness of his race, qualities which in the eyes of a true-born Englishman will cover a multitude of sins. He was born at Buckingham Palace, November 9th, 1841, received his early education under the Rev Henry M. Birch,' rector of Prestwich, Mr Gibhs,' Uarrister-at-Law, Hie Rev C. F. Tarver, and Mr H. W. Fisher, and having .studied fora session at Edinburgh, entered Christ Church, Oxford, where he attended the public lectures for a year, and after wards resided for three or four jfccrjns at Cambridge for the same purpose. II is Royal Highness spent most of the summer of iB6O in a visit to the United. States and Canada, where he was most en#wsi#6#.cnlly received, was in 1858 gazetted to a CoioH.ftJ.ey hi the Army, and joined the Camp at the Cniragh, in June 1861. Accompanied by Dean Stanley, the Prince travelled in the i East, and visited Jerusalem in 1862. His ! Royal Highness is a X, G., a General 'in the Army, and Colonel of. the 10th Hussars, and has the titles of Buk/3 of Cornwall (by which he took his seat in the House of Lords, fit February, 1863), in the Peerage of England, Duke of Hothsay, Baron of Renfrew, and Lord of the isj«s in Scotland, and Earl of Dublin and Garrick, in Ireland, and enjoys the patronage of 29 livings, chiefly as owner of the Duchy of Cornwall. His Royal Highness married March 10th, 1863, the Princess; Alexandra of Denmark. The Prince's last foreign tour was ill India last year.

Tlie business of the Police Court was post poned until •to-morrow morning. The charge sheet contained the names of four tippling women, denoted vagrants, a man charged with stealing sundry articles, and Katherme Jones, on warrant'for neglecting to assist in supporting her child in the Home for Destitute Children. Mr O'Rorke had an interview with the Minister of Public Works just before leav ing Wellington, and obtained a promise that the work of constructing the new goods wharf at Ouchunga will be undertaken with despatch, and that a sum of £14,000 will be forthcoming for the purpose.

In addition to the particulars which we published the other day respecting the im prisonment of Captain Le Visconte for em bezzlement, a Sydney cablegram states that he had once previously committed a similar offence, which was overlooked by Messrs Shaw, Savillo, and Co.

The Otago Convention.

SIR GEORGE GREY TO GO HOME.

84 HEPUK-SENTATIVES PRESENT,

MEMORIAL

TO RECALL THE

GOVERNOR.

(From our own correspondent)

DUN El) IN, Wednesday. [The following appeared, in a second edition last night.] The Convention opened at noon. There were eighty-four representatives present. Mr Macandre-vir'was received by all rising and cheering with the greatest enthusiasm, lie delivered a very long address, which was printed and circulated. He called on them to move for a separate and indepen dent colony for Otago which was received with prolonged applause. He referred warmly to the alliance with Auckland. Mr. Thomson of Clutha was elected Chairman and Mr. Burrowinan secretary.

The Convention adjourned till two, till the roll is made up. At two, notice of re solutions will be given, and an adjournment till seven made.

I have seen I lie copies of the resolution:-;. They embrace a petition to rec.ill the Governor, a memorandum to the Queen, separation into an independent Colony, and sending home Sir (Joorge Grey and Mr. Macandrew to present it, Also periodical meetings of the Convention. The greatest satisfaction is felt at the

resolutions.

The Convention is a maguiliconi success so far, and the utmost unanimity prevails.

LAST NIGHT'S SITTING.

GKEA T ENTH US [AS M!

PROFESSOI I MA(!GKK( iOIi DEFENDS

SIR GEORGE GREY.

(From our own Correspondent.)

DUNEDIN, this day

One hundred and eight members alto gether are present at the Convention, in cluding thirteen members or the Assembly, fifteen members of the Provincial Council, seven Mayors, the remainder Chairmen of Road Boards and School Coinnritees from every corner of the Province. Si'vcnty-four replies were received expressing inability to attend, and earnest sympathy with the objects ; and only twenty-two refusals, chiefly of rabid Abolitionists, who are ad mittedly not in sympathy with the districts n which they chance to be Chairmen.

The earnestness of the members has taken even the promoters by surprise. The Convention includes six prominent arrivals by the first ship-; to Otago, and a large number of the oldest settlers, who were the most prominent of all in'their determination of resistance.

The Convention sat till one this morning, and the two first resolutions were carried. The discussion was engaged in by nearly every member, chieily from the country, who all expressed in the strongest terms the determination in their several districts.

Some opposition was offered to the reso lution to recall the Governor, chieily by Justices of the Peace, but the anger against the Marquis of Norinanby was irrepressible, and the strongest language of denunciation was used.

The resolution was carried on the voices with a thrilling "Aye !"

WILD EXCITEMENT,

Great uproar was caused by Captain Wales stating that Sir George Grey was ma '• queer state of mind." The wildest excitement ensued, members springing to their feet, and gesticulating vehemently. I never witness so excited a boohooing, groaning, and hissing, Captain Wales making frantic efforts to explain that he meant nothing disrespectful ; only that Sir George Grey was carried away by enthu-

siasm

Every allusion to Sir George Grey was signal for n burst of prolonged cheering. I believe heis not half so popular in _ Auckland as here, could not describe the terms of enthusiasm in. which Sir George Grey was spoken uf by members from every part of the province, Professor Megrcgor made a magniJicent defence ol'Jiini. Sir George should be lucre instead of at Auckland where you do not half appreciate him. To the second resolution there was an amendment proposed for Separation of the tAvo Islands, instead of: making Otago an independent colony. Only one voice was given in its favor. The resolution as amended on the proposal of Mr Gillies was carried unanimously, reading- thus: — "That a Committee of three be appointed to draft a petition to Her Majesty, setting forth the limited and incqual character of the prasont representation of the people, and asking that the rights of the province of Otago, conferred on her by the Constitu tion Act, be preserved, if not attainable otherwise, by proclaiming her a seperate and Independent colony. That the sjiirl committee consists of Messrs Stout, Hobiu, cayl the Mover." _ . The Convention resumed this morning at eleven. The other resolutions are certain to be carried as the greatest niuaumity pjreyjjila, The success of the convention, has taken all the pucker oitfc ut the Centralists as the representation confessedly k from every corner of the province without exception, the refusals being far fewer than repre sented., and in almost all cases sent on grounds that the school committees were not political bodies. SYMPATHY FOR AUCKLAND.

Y,qii could not imagine the warm sym pathy expressed for Auckland in tlio -wrongs she (Suffered at tlio hands of the Central Government/ a»d the eutoiastic deter mination to stand by Auckland iv the struggle. . , . . Tno determination is clearly for an mclc-

Banner of Otago evoked wonderful en thusiasm. The old covenanting blood is boiling. DUNEDIN, 1 p.m. The petition to the Queen for the recall of the Governor was brought up and postponed till the evening witting. It is horribly strong.

THE HOME MISSION CARRIED.

1.30 p.m.

The third resolution, with modifications not altering its purport, was carried unani mously. The Convention discussed the fourth reso lution—for sending homo Sir George Grey and Mr Macandrow, every speaker warmly supporting it. On the suggestion of Mr Stout, the name of the Hon. Captain Frazer was added to those of Sir George Grey and Mr Macan drew.

Wonderfully warm references were made to Scottish history from Wallace down, wards*.

It has been observed that with the ex ception of ten or twelve the Convention consists wholly of Scotchmen, and cer tainly the thistle is shaken viciously. The resolution for sending a mission to England is just carried unanimously amid great applause. The attendance has been crowded both of members and the public, notwithstanding the holiday. A resolution in favour of the County system under the old ordinance lirst was passed without discussion. They then adjourned for dinner.

The Holiday.

TllK general holiday in honour of the Prince of Wales dawned upon the city, without any of the bustle and hurrying to and fro, which marks the ordinary week day. The milkmen's voices were almost the only sounds that were heard in the street, and at the shop-opening hour, no hands were seen in active moiion, taking c'own the shutters. The morning was not altogether promisingl, clouds were seen in the distance, some hanging apparently on the hills, and others close to the Waitemata. The sun shine occasionally shot through skyey-open ings, like a young maidens laugh, which was cheering and hopeful. The streets were comparatively silent ; the shops, banks and business offices mostly unopened. As the day went on and the sun had nearly reached his merdian, people were seen hurrying to and fro in holiday dress, prepared for an outing in the companionship of nature. The leading events of the day are the cattle show at Rcniuera, the Caledonian games at Ellerelic, ami the opening of the Sunday Scholars' Exhibition in the Drillshed. The particulars of these scenes will be noticed elsewhere. Several steamers started for such sylvan spots as the Kawau, and Woodside from the wharf, and those plying between Auckland and the districts of the North Shore, carried numbers of persons away from tlie confines of the city. Capt. Casey's steamer, the Anne Mi limn k, took about eighty excursionists to the Hot Springs and Kawau. A considerable nuni lier of persons were attracted, early this morning to the music of <h«

VOLUNTEKItS, who liiarclicd in excellent order to 1 lie Britomart Kailway Station. The companies included the Scottish, Artillery, llobson, ■mil Naval Companies, accompanied by (lie bandsbf fhu Artillery and Naval*. The men wen: under command ofCapt. Derroin, and looked exceedingly well, and proceeded by rail to Mercer, where they, no doubt have passed a happy "lay in prosecuting the promises of the programme. One of the events of the day will be the presentation of a gold ring and testimonial, by the members of the Artillery Company, made by Lieut Payne, jeweller, of Queen-street, to Captain .Burns. The address has been elegantly framed by Sub-Lieu tenant William Nome, and is wcll-woided and expressive of the esteem in which Captain Burns is held by the officers and men, and signed by Lieut. Payne, Sub- Lieut. Norrie. Battery-Sergeant Ansell, Sergeant Taylor, Corporal Long, and gunner Cameron, who were appointed the memorial committee on behalf of the company. To wards mid-day, a number of staid persons and you nil people visited the DOMAIN,

where the eider persons were interested in watching the sunny sports of childhood, while they enjoyed their lemonade and sandwiches in the shade of the trees. A cricket match was also in progress on the ground, between the married and single of The Auckland Cricket Club. The wickets were pitched shortly after ten o'clock, but the result, of the contest had not readied us on going to press. Besides the numerous pleasurer of the day, there will be a num ber of

AMUSEMENTS

for the appropriate closing of thelday. PANORAMA OF THE THAMES, a most interesting scries of scenes, which will be exhibited for the fourth time at the Theatre Royal of this city, with musical illustrations under the direction of Mr Ed ward Lewis, and explanatory observations by Mr Kennedy, of pc family of the Scot tish melodists.' Those persons wlici have not yet/witnessed the pictures of the Thames will have an opportunity of closing the day in noticing artistic reflections of English scenes consecrated by patriotism and genius. We notice that Mrs Cotterell (Miss Carandini) will sing several new songs this evening, and Mr Cotterell will perform some of his lightning charges from his popular enter tainment, "Masks and' Faces." We have several times referred at length to this mag nificent panorama of one of England's noblest rivers and some of its literary and characteristic associations, and need say no more at present;, than confidently recom mend the entertainment to the special notice, of our numerous readers. We may further point to the NEWMA RKET SORIEE

in connection with the Primitive Metliodist Cliuruli of the district, which will bo held tin's evening in Hie Newmarket Hall. A fceu-]Mirty will l)e fonnuil in the body of the lull at'luilf-IMWt live o'clock, iifter wliich the dioir will sin«j a mniihcr of hymns. K. Neal E«<|, or Kpsow Avill occupy the chair, and the principle speakers of the evening will be Rev. J. Dnmbell (New Plymouth) aaid liev Messrs Tinsley and Harris, of Auckltuid. The hull will be ornamented Avitli representative Hags, and decorated with ferns and flowers. Again, Lome-street Hall will be made lively by

WARD'S VARIETY TROUPE of melodists, performers, vocalists, and musicians, who will give a royal birthday night eiitfirtaiument in the said hall, The programme for the uccanion }« ipiusually attractive, including the names ot Messrs Sceats, Chapman, W. Doran, Hill, McLean, Mettam Brothers, Brown, Coleman, Hoggard, Heighton, and Ward. Mr Chapman will Ring an original song; Mr Ward will also give a new song. The whole will be of an entertaining character, and conclude with a quadrille party.

Auckland Cattle Show.

Tub iirst exhibition under the new regime was held in Mr Buckland's yards Remuora, to-day, where very excellent arrangements had "been made by the committee of management, Messrs A. Auckland, J. Banks, A. Anderson, W. McLaugblin, Every Mac lean, T. Morrin, J. May. T. Wallace, M. M. Taylor, (Treasurer), J. Bainbridge, J. Dilwor'th, and Win, Percival, (Secretary). Tlie perishable goods were placed under cover, and every preparation had been made to render the affair a success, the com mittee having worked most cordially and energetically throughout. The shew of hor.se stock was the largest and finest ever exhibited in the province. The five classes of entires, all found entries except one, entires foaled .since August 1, 1873. The first class comprised three splendid entires by imported stock. Amongst the roadsters, the Auckland Stock Importation Company's Young Per former, by Royal Oak, attracted general notice. Mares in foal or at foot, hacks, carriage horses, buggy horses, ponies, and other roadsters brought out a line list of entries. in draft stock, also, the entries were numerous. In cattle, the pedigree shorthorns comprised some of the finest stock to be found in the colony, and re flected great credit on the importers and brooders, Messrs T. and S. Morrin, 11. and E. McLean, L. B. Harris; and others, [n grade .shorthorns and Herefords, there was a very numerous and excellent list of exhibits. From an early hour in the morning the holiday seekers were wending their way to Mr Buckland's yards at Remnera. The ten o'clock train was crowded throughout, many being obliged to stand outside the carriages. Long before eleven o'clock there was a great throng of people <>n the ground, who scattered themselves over the place, inspecting and criticising the various ex liibits. The place was alive with, the gayest of bunting. Admirable arrangements had been made to separate the various divis ions of exhibits, and to enable them to be conveniently inspected. In the paddocks on the right, the slice]) dogs were being tried. Immediately inside the entrance to the yards in tlie right "hand side was the booth of Mr. Perkins of the Occidental, where the thirsty souls were refreshed during the day. Jm mudiately opposite in a lino piece of grass land the roadsters were inspected. Further on, along tlie cast side of the paddock, was Mr. Stacey's refreshment stall presided over by the well-known public caterer, Mr. ITavles. Then a long canviiss-covercd shed w it'll pigeons and poultry, dairy produce, and local industries ; then a splendid array of entries arranged in successive stalls, and at the south-eastern corner, tlie refreshment stall furnished by Mr Perkins, and a luncheon room, the charge of which had been entrusted to "Messrs Stacey and McEwin, of the City Bullet. On tlie western side of the paddock was a long oanvass-rovered shed, sheltering a great variety of canines of every imaginable breed, line] and size, and opposite there a lino of agricultural implements.

At the north cast, comer the pedigree Flerefords ;ui<l Shorthorns and grade Short horns were in stalls, the pedigree stock being under canvas. < >ppositethiH were the dairy cows, calves, and sheep exhibits. This makes the round of exhibits.

Too much praise cannot bo awarded to the sheep exhibits, both as to frame and quality of wool. En passant it may be asked how is it that no one lias ever plucked up en terprise enough to start a tweed factory to utilise our own wool resources, as has been done at Mosgiel with so much success '! The pedigree bulls were creditable to Auck land in every respect. The display of dairy produce was somewhat limited ; hut this is accounted for by the fact that this class of exhibit, has not hitherto been in vited on any considerable scale. Mr. Dennes exhibited a Patent Royal Washing and Wringing Machine, which is capable of washing the heaviest counterpanes, or half-a-dozen handkerchiefs, the whole pro cess occupying only three minutes. Mr. Dennes also exhibited a, series of sewing machines, including one called the New Motive, which works simply, and with re markable regularity. It is especially suit ablu for beginners. Another machine is Kngland's Queen, which can be adapted to various kinds of stitch. Mr. Webster's show of American harness was strong and serviceable. Mr. W. S. Jones' saddles, made for butchers' and other heavy work, with plated trees, the whole complete, with mounts, for £3 17s. (id., was much ad mired. The improved spring-cart harness, made expressly to the design of the exhi bitor, were also worthy of special remark. Messrs. John Wallace (Maii garei) and John Lamb (Riverhead), were the judges of dairy produce. Mr H. H. Smith, of the Auckland Ironworks, had a line display of wrought iron ranges, im proved side-ovens, made expressly for country settlers; portable smoke-consuming ovens, colonial ovens, patent chimney tops for remedying smokey chimneys, improved cottage ranges, and portable boilers, all locally made, and of the best material. Mr W. Rattray exhibited a splendid selection of various patterns of Mosgiel and Nelson tweeds, and sonic line Mosgiel blankets. Mr («•. Vause showed some excellent oil skins. Next, Mr John Lamb, of the woU known mills, exhibited a number of samples of cabin, saloon, and fancy biscuits, which did infinite credit to this business, which lias been 17 years established. The biscuits are evidently of the best material. Mr Bycroft also exhibited 18 samples of fancy, cabin, saloon, and navy biscuits. Mr J. Wenclal had a small variety of natural wine vinegar of an excellent kind, and much superior to the imported article. The white wine of last year's vintage, and the red wine, two years old, were pro nounced by competent judges equal to the very best imported colonial brands. Mr .i, McLeqd exhibited samples, of Wangarei lime, and a block uf mortar, niado from a mixture of scoria ash and VVangarei Heads stone lime, which is found to be eminently adapted for building purposes, and is cheaper than brick. The block on view was only a week old, but was as firm as the best English mixtures. The Hobson Band, under the able leadership of bandmaster McComish, discoursed most excellent music during the afternoon. The pair of uavnage horses shewn by Messrs J. M. Clark and T, Morrin were a splendid turn out, of silver mounted harness, and every thing in app*le pio order. The buggy exhibits wero al&i, f-uniarkajjly good. Mr Bercivai had a loud of responsibility during tlje day, b,ut acquitted himself to the satisfaction of everyone, In }mp.]emcnls. tljere was Qiily one exhibitor, and it was creditable Jn every branch. In the local industries, which wero a credit to the country, a first prize was awarded in each case.
