QUARTZ CRUSHING.

Some irontha ago Mr Thomas Russell im ported from England some improved ma chinery for quartz crushing. In consequence of the depression in mining affairs, it was never employed, and has been lying in a disjointed state in a shed of the old distillery in Stanley-efcreet. Within the last few days it has b< ?n put together, and those interested in such things may now, by paying a visit to the deserbd spirit factory, see one of the latest English inventions for crushing ore aDd quartz. The machine is really nothing more than a two-stamper battery, but ar ranged on such a principle that it does the work of an eight-stumper battery of the ordinary pattern. The engine differs in two important particulars from those in general use. In the first place, the stamping action is derived directly from the crank shaft, which, as it revolves alternately, lifts and sends down each of the stampers. This idea is so very simple that it hag no doubt oc curred to hundreds of persons before the inventor, but a difficulty has always stood in the way of its adoption, which was the danger of an unusually hard stone, or some unsmashable substance getting under the stampers, and causing the snapping of the crank or the shaft. The machine in question has this danger obviated by a clever con trivance which constitutes the beauty of the invention. Where the bearings from the crank are attached to the shaft or stamper rod, a cylinder encircles the latter enclosing a piston worked bodily into the shaft. There are two small holes in the cylinder above, and two more below the piston. It will thus be seen that the stampers, as they are lifted and sent down, are immediately moved by com pressed air in the cylinders, and thus a kind of buffer is provided for any sudden jar or obstruction such as has been instanced. The substitution of the direct motion for that of the ordinary lifting and dropping by the aid of projections on the crank shaft enables the machine to attain the rate of about 150 stamps per minute, instead of 60 which is the highest speed hitherto attainable. The com pressed. ai>-is also useful in heightening the force of each blow. The machins is interest ing in other respects, but our readers, who are so inclined, can go and examine it them selves. We may mention that thi3 Etyle of battery hai been used for the last two years on the tin mines of Cornwall.

MRS. MITCHELL'S CONCERT.

This lady's annual concert v.11). take placo this even ing in the Choral Bull at eight o'clock, and wo hope for the credit of the city in their recognition of rightly dirrcted vocal ta'.ent, th*t MS Mitchell will have a full memblag* Mrs Mitchell, as a singer of a high order, has we think somo claim upon the public for fcer oirnest action la endeavouring to stimulate a love of vocal music and the poetry of sweet song The programme of this evening's concert is excellent in detail, and sufficiently varied to gratify the most fastidious of listeners, Mv V E. Bice will accompany, and Mr Brow a will conduct the musical proceedings. The moat sublime pas : -es of Handell's "Messiah," will form the firat part, including " In the Beginning,1' and " God saw the Light.'7 with the fine air " With Verdure Clad,1' by Mrs Mltche"., and the grand soul subduJng chorus, " The Heavens are Telling/ ets. The brothers Hp-kerand other members of the Choral Society will tako part in the due rendeilng of those selection The second pail comprises the overture " Zanetta," Ludlow'a chaste composition, " O Bid your frUhfol Ai."el fly," by Miss .Kdger, of the Royal Academy of Music. A duet by Mrs Mitchell and Miss Maunsell : a humourous ballad by Mr Tole; a piano solo by Mra Woolley, the accom plished piapist ; the " Death of Nelson" by Mr Kkin ner, who wi'l be favorably remembered in connection with tno Goddard and Christian concerts, aud who is no mean foJ'ower of the celebrated John Braham, who sang this song as no other man of his time could sing it. The musicrl and well-arranged trio, " Th-j magic Wove Sea I," will be sung by Mrs Mitchell, and Messrs Tole and G. Harker. Miss Vau^han, the sweet vocalist of Parne.'l, will resist with "Out of the Depths," and a gentleman amateur will sing " Nil Desperandum," rid the lady for who3e benefit the concert has been organisd will sing the "Night ingale's Trill.'' Thoband also will play at the con clusion, the famous war-march from "Athalie." Hence it will be seen that the concert at the Choral Hall this evening will be worthy the occ?~ion, and form a g.aceful tribute to one whose pleasant muiic is as " famiHar as household words" to the music loving citizens of Auckland.

ARRIVAL OF THE VAVAU.

The schooner Vavau, Captain Schlutir, ar rived this morning from Tongatabu with a cargo of maize. She left Tongatabu on Saturday the 27th tilt,, and had fine weather for the first two days. On the 29th it came on to blow hard from the N.E., and subse quently from the SE, The vessel was hove to for 36 hours. A dead calm of 24 hours followed, during which the ves3el rolled heavily in the high ser i. A succession of S. and S.W. winds brought the Vavau to the Great Barrier on Tuesday morning. During Tuesday heavy S.W. winds prevented the ship making the port, and Wednes day was calm. The vessel brought up in Ragitoto Channel at twelve o'clock last night, and came up this morning, anchoring off the whaiJ at eleven o'clock. "From here Captain Schlutir purposes to return to Tongatabu. The visit of the Vavau is more interesting, inasmuch as she is the vessel which was orderrd by Messrs Goddeffron and Co , of Samoa, to be built in California at the same time as the firm ordered the Tongatabu to be built here, in Auckland, with a view, it was said at the time, to see which ship builders seat them the better craft. The two vessels are very different in point of size, so that it is some what difficult to compare them. While the Tongatabu registered 143 tons thejVavau only runs to 73 tons or just half the size. She was built by Mr Bendickson at Humbolt Bay. The Vavau'a dimensions ar ■> as follows: Length of keel, 82 feet; beam, 22 feet 6 inches; depth of hold, 7 feet 2 inches. She is built throughout of Oregon pine, and has a cabin above the deck, measuring about 12 feet square. Her stern ia eliptic and her lines though graceful are full and rounded with a very pretty shear. To compensate for her light draught of water she has a very deep keel of 34 inches, which enables her to stand very close to the wind when beating. This tapors away at the stem, a formation intended to facilitate her steering. It will be seen from these parti culars that the Vavau is broad and flat, while the Tongatabu is built with much greater depth in comparison with her beam, and with more rise of floor. Captain Schultir speaks very highly of the Vauvau's sailing powers. Her arrangement of canvas is very different to that of the Tongatabn. In the first place she carries masts which are three feet longer thaii those of the Auck land vessel, in spite of the difference in size. The main booms are about the same length, but as is the case with nearly all American vesaeis, the Vauvau's gaff is very much the shorter after making the requisite allowance. The Vavau carries a single topsail yard, while the Tongatabu has double topsail yards. Prom this it is evident that the Vavau carries the greater stretch of

CMTvog ,but very much less of it is carried aloft than in the English crafj. The_ Vavau also has a squave sail con taining .SCO yards of canvas very useful in running. The Vavau from her flat forma tion lakes only 21 tons of ballast to steady her, a less proportion than the Tongatabu. She is built with flat chain-plates, and clea sides, so as to enable Email craft to lord or unload alongside, while lying off and on at the Islands. No doujjt this vessel will bo carefully inspected while she h here. We may mention that her cost was dols 900 or£2,lGo, at which price she was certainly not a cheaper vessel than the Peerless, which was sold the other day for £2,075, or the Ton gatabu which cost slightly over £3000.
