THE R.M.S.S. GRANADA.

The Granada arrived at Kandavu on the 30 h ul to. Ilut is iiva days id'ter tho Lit? of Ban Kiaucisco left for Auckland. For exactly the Fame ltsrgth of tima the < ity was lying idle in our waters, and the puzzla is still unsolved -What induced the Sydney agents to give her instructions to leave Kandavu so earlj? It was known at the time the City left Sydney that the Granada h>d left 'Frisco ou the 9th uito, and why Mr Hail or anyone else should suppose she would mike the run to the Fijis under twenty dayj we are at a loss to imagine, more especially as it was Captain Cavarly's first crip, for which a little extsa time is usually allowed. However, the mischief is aone, and it is no use crying ov r npilt milk, only the mistake has put our mercuants to great inconvemi-nce. The following appears in the Sydney Morning Herald of the 7th instant;—" The Granada arrived on Satur day night from San Francisco via Honolulu and Kandavu, hiving mado a splendid passage ot 21 dajs 1 houra. duly disch *rgin,r the European and American mails within an hour.

NOTICE TO CORRESPONDENTS.

The Evening Star. WITH WHICH ARE INCORPORATED The Evening news, The Morning News and The Echo.

MONDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1876

For the cause that lacks assistance, For the wrong that needs resistance, For the (uture in the distance,

And the (rood that we can do.

The antagonism of the Cross to Auckland's welfare, whenever the laches of the General Government are involved, could not, perhaps, receive more striking illustration than that furnished in the leading article published by our contemporary fco-day. The Superinten dent of Wellington, as our readers are aware, when applied to by the unemployed of the Thames for assistance to leava this province, honorably refused to benefit Wellington at the expense of Auckland, knowing, as he must have done, that ample work might be found for the men here, if the General Gov vernment afforded the assistance which might reasonably be expected. Ifi appears, however, that Messrs McKerdy and Oakes hold a large contract in the province of Wel lington from the General Government, and have written to Dr Pollen expressing their willingness to provide twelve months' labour for the unemployed miners. The letter is at onco telegraphed,

we suppose by the Government, to the Cross, and that journal remarks: —

" It is Bomewhafc singular to find that in the face cf such a demand for labour at good wages in Wellington, as is here shown, the Superintendent of that Province should have given the applicants from the Thames no en couragement and no hope of work in Wel lington. Evidently proper inquiry had not been made, as the letter we have quoted shows. Here, however, is a solution of the present Thames difficulty. That it is a satis factory solution may, in a sense, be ad mitted."

The Cross then proceeds at some length to condemn tho coEducSi of the Super rintendent, and sue pests that the con tractors should eha:ter a steamer to remove the 300 or 400 men they require. A more outrageous proposal coming from an Auckland journal was probably never propounded. If given effect to, and full well our contemporary knows it, the Thames goldfields will be irretrievably ruined, and an injury done the province which years will not retrieve. The depres sion at the Thames has been caused by manifestly temporary causes, and if instead of grasping the goldh'ekls revenue and other monies clue to the province, the General Government bad made thi3 money available for the carrying out of necessary works, thus affording employment for surplus labour until work in the mines is resumed, there would have been no need to invoke the assistance of Wellington contractors. We are assured that the Government have re solved upon the commencement of the Kai-

para railway extension us soon an plans are ready, and if so, by placing one section of it in hand at once the present distress would be alleviated. If the merchants of Auckland are alive to their interests, diey will not allow a proposal having as its object the wholesale depopulation of the province to go unchallenged.

We learn that a gentleman in the city has received tha following telegram from the Colonial Secie'ary relative to the commence ment of tlie Kaipara railway: •- "Mr. Ivichardson ia South, but he left instructions to advertise for tenders as soon as specifi cations were ready, which cannot be done till early in April."

The following telegram was received to day from tbe manager of the Bullion claim, Tapu :- Six tons cm hed from slida yielded 2nz3. melted gold. Six tons from H;»lf Moon 24ozs. melted gold. Last ton that was bioken out on Friday crushed splendidly. Hard Cash leader not expected to be cut for about a fortnight.

By the Hero, writes our Sydney correspon dent, you will have a burlesque company, the principal of whom is Mips Lydia Howarde, the best burlesque actress and singer in the colonies. Miss iJowarde is an accomplished vocalist, and has that peculiar vervre. as the French call it, that renders all her perform ances piqnante. With her is Mdlle. Solango Navaro, a young lady of French extraction, and a charming vocalist. They have made arrangements to secure a full company of burlesque and opera boufi'e people, and ought to make a good tour through New Zealand.

Sir,—l think I can point out an evil that exists in bringing to justice offenders against the city by-laws. Pome time since a number of licensed, drivers were hauled up, and were fined 2* (M and costs, namely: line, 2a Cd; solicitor, 10s Orl ; court costs, la 6d ; sum mons, 4s- in all ]9s 6tf, I ask in the name of justice why the ten and sixpence is allowed. Is the Town Clerk not able to con duct such cases without the aid of a learned lawyer? Mr Broham, Mr Pardy, and even out-di<triofc'policemen are able to conduct the police business well. Can anyone see vh; t is to hinder the Town Clerk from conducting such cases as the above ? The men who fall victims to 'these by-laws are mostly poor and ill-able to afford tonjmd sixpence, which there is no occasion for. In all cities I have been in, the town clerk has to conduct such cases.—l am, etc., Jt'STTCE.

A meeting of creditors in the'estate of John Hayes was held on Saturday in Mr Macffarlnne's offices ; liabilities £700, assets £25. Mr Dufaur appeared for the bankrupt. Mr Macffarlane was appointed trustee, and it was resolved that liquidation take place in accordance with the Act.

The operative painters of Auckland will hold a trade meeting this evening in the Carlton Academy, Hobson-street, for the purposes of enrolling members and the gene ral business of the Society.

Sir George Grey, X.C.8., will delivers lecture on Friday evening next, in sid of the Young Men's Christian Association and Total Abstinence Society, in the Choral Hall, on the "Australian Colonies and New Zea land."

On Wednesday next,. Messrs^ Tonks and Co. will offer for sale afc their mart, a number of valuable allotments in<Kyber Pass and Mount Eden road.

Mr G. W. Binney will sell at the Corn Exchange to-morrow, the fine library of Mr Stannua Jones, consisting of works of the greatest writers of the age on poetry, philo sophy, history, science and physics.

The inquiries made by the Sydney Cricket Association since the return of the New South Wales eleven have proved the truth of the story that an attempt was made to bribe some of the members of the eleven to prevent New South wales from winning in one in nings. The attempt was made by some one who had bet money on the game, and who declared that he would lose £500 if the game was won by Sydney in a single innings. If there are many more such exposures as this, cricket will soon acquire as bad a reputation as racing.

The funeral of Mrs. E. D. Davies, the lamented partner of Mr. E. D. Davies, the unrivaled ventriloquist, was largely attended on Saturday afternoon by friends, citizens and professionals, several carriages draped in mourning followed. The body of the deceased lady was laid in the Catholic Cemetry, and the burial service impressively performed by Rev. Father Simpson.

The Hon. Charles John Taylor, one of the largest land-owners in Tamaki West, leaves Auckland with Mrs Taylor and family, by the City of San Francisco, for an eighteen months' stay in England.

Now, we cannot conceal from ourselves (says the Otago Times) that all the usually respeeted signs of the commercial horizon warn us of tempestuous weather.

A Wesleyan missionary in the island of Ceylon recently bought an idol temple and the grove in which it stood, as well as the idol itself. Having completed the purchase from the Brahmin owner, the missionary put the idol into his coat pocket, and walked away instead of dropping dead as the horri fied worshippers expected to see him do. It happened to be the god Vyravan, who is the guardian of the other gods, and the seizure of his image, removal of his temple and grove, and the erection of a school on the sacred spot, has created an unusual stir among the people. Seven panes of glass have been broken in the Baptu-t Sunday-school building, Pon sonby. The mischief has, no doubt, been accomplished by the larrikins with which the Western suburb is infested, and it may be salutary to remind these youths that their wilful destruction of property has rendered them liable to imprisonment. Information has been lodged with the police, and we trust that their efforts will result in bringing the authors of the outrage to justice.

Miss Eastmanmakes this knock-down argu ment against war:—"The expense of the Geneva arbitration was about one-third enough to plate one man-o'-war."

We are indebted to Mr. William Wright, of Poneonby, for a copy of the Tonga Times, a publication issued in the new kingdom established by King George in the Friendly Islands. A letter received by Mr. Wright from his brother states that trade hasrecived a great impetus in the island. Carpenters and other mechanics are in demand at high wages, and buildings of a substantial character are being run up. The Key. Mr. Baker, Wesleyan missionary, is the real mover in these reforms, and the Constitution has been framed so as to preserve the native rule by rendering it impossible to sell the fee simple of the soil, although power is granted to lease. The Times shews that already a Government Bank and Industrial School have been established.

In a paragraph which appeared a few days ago, we anticipated a crush of shipping after the Jate period of inaction on the wharf. It seems that it has already arrived. Only a few days ago there was scarcely a large vessel alongside our quays or jetties ; now we have so many in harbour than although the barques Marathon and Thomas Brown are stilj in the stream, no berth could this morning h- found for the Hero which has brought ova- English Mail, and although she has "mi board much perishable caigo ami a valuable consignment of horses, .she jss obliged to be off at anchor til! t!i« morninjr. Captain Logan'is, naturally enough, so.vy much pnfc out at the neufiSisity whicli keeps aim away from the wharf. It is certainly hard lines, for the Hero ia nob a boat at all uncertain in her movements, but on the contrary generally makes her appear ance to the very hour. She ought on 'ihis account alone to have some special prepar ation, made for her arrival. Whether on the present occasion by any arrangement a berth could have been reserved for her is a question which we leave unanswered.

From statements published in Russian papers, it appears that the Russian Empire was visited in the month of August wi'.h no less than 2022 conflagrations of a more or less serious character, causing damage to the value of £1.800,000. 'Two hundred and forty of these fires were occasioned by lightning, GGT> by negligence, 377 by irc«ndiarism ; the others were of unknown origin, bur, it is be lieved many wet c caused by incendiaries.

A little girl, the daughter of Mr. Jolin O'Donnell, Taranaki, whilst lifting a kettle of water from off the fire, accidentally set light to her clothe 0, which so burnt her as to result in death, It appenrß that the wife of Mr. O'Donnell left the child, who is between seven and eight years of age, in change of the house with instructions to have the kettle boiling on her return. About; five o'clock the girl wss in the act of taking the kettle oil', when her clothes caught fire. .She im mediately ran to the pump to pet water, but failing to pnt out the Jlames. then ran to the nearest neighbour, who lives about two chains distant, hf.r clothes being all on fire and dropping off in pieces.

"We have been holding over from day to day " Notes on the Chess Match, Auckland v. Duncdin, which will, we hope, appear io to-morrow',s issue.

Someone on Saturday night gave Mr l>aacs, one of the mpney-fakers at Blondin's, ton shillings which he did not receive the change for. The amount will be handed over on application to Mr Isaacs.

We learn that a cheque for £20 to be applied to charitable purposes, has been for warded to Major Green by Chevalier Blondin.

Mr Joseph Bennett, formerly of Auckland, appears to have been the mover in the stop page of the manager of the Marionette Company reported by telegraph n, few days ago. The Dunedin JSvening News thus re ports the occurrence: "Tho arrival of the celebrated "Marionettes" from Melbourne by tho Omeo to day without their head and manager in an event whereto hangs a tale. It appears that the institution had come out under engagement to Mr Bennett, theatrical manager of Sydney, to play throughout the Australian colonies. The company had per formed in various places, and had gono down to Tasmania, and on the return from Hobart town to Melbourne, Mr McDonoiU'h. not desiring to go off to Queensland, made an arrangement to close the engagement by squaring the matter for a certain sum which was duly paid and all made right. Just prior to the hour announced for the starting of the Omuo from Melbourne for New Zealand by which vessel Mr McDonough and his company with all the appurtenances thereof were intending passem'f.rH, guided by some sudden impulse whereof we know not the reason, Mr Josf-ph Bennett, brother to the theatrical mannger, had a warrant taken out and had Mr McDonough. arrested for felony, to wife for having stolen certain bills and posters. On search warrant, the whole pro perties of the company were ransacked, and the steamer detained for an hour and a half. Meanwhile the search produced no results, and none of the articles wera found. On this Mr Bennett said to Mr McDonough, "As I have found nothing yon can go now." "Oh no," said Mr McDonough, "I go for you now." He accordingly sent forward his company instructing them not to stop at lnvercnrgill as originally intended, but to go on to Dunedin and there remain without playing till the arrival of the manager. Meantime Mr McDonough "goes for" Mr Bennett in an action for hnavy damages for what peems a most extraordinary proceeding. The Company and their remarkable equip ment are now in Dunedin, and from what we have heard, the entertainment they have in waiting is the most extraordinary and fascin ating that has ever appeared in the Australa sian colonies."

At the District Court this morning, before Judge Fenton, tbe several cases set down for hearing were settled, out of Court with the exception of two, viz., those of Delias v. Holmes Bros., claim, £100 damages, and Messrs Isaacs v. James Underhill, claim, £21 10a goods, which were ..adjourned, until next Court-day.

The£departure of the City of San Francisco with the English' Mail is fixed for twelve o'clock to-night. The closing time for the mails at the Post-office is eleven o'clock.

A sale of superior chromo-lithographs, steel engravings, etc., including copies of old masters, is announced for Wednesday next by Messrs E. and H. Isaacs. The shipment is of a much better class than is usually met with, and is well worthy of inspection.

The English Mail

The s.s. Hero which arrived this morning from Sydney, was, as generally anticipated, the bearer of the English Mail which left San Francisco in the Granada on the 9th January, and was taken on to Sydney in consequence of the ill-judged haste with which the City of Francisco was hurried on from Kandavu to Auckland. The Granada arrived at Sydney on the sth ims!;. The Hero brings the English Mail for the whole colony. The Southern portion will be dis patched to its destination by the Union Co's boat, which leaves the Manukau to-morrow/

SAILING ACCIDENT.

Yestekday afternoon two young men en gaged a boat at Hilditch's, and went out for a sail down the harbour. When close to the anchorage of bhe yachts Daphne and Secret, the occupants tried to gibe her, but while they were engaged in the attempt, a puff of wind capsized the little craft, throwing the young fellows into the water. Both were enabled to get on the overturned boat, and in that helpless condition were floating down the harbour when they/were espied from Judge's Bay by Mr

Queenan, carter to Arnold, Hines and Co., and aMr Hood. Mr Swainßon who resides at the Bay, also saw the accident, and directed the two men just mentioned to where one of his boats lay. They immedia tely jumped in, and putting off as quickly as possible, gained the shipwrecked waifs and took them on board. They did not evince any great gratitude to their deliverers, and with regard to themselves only gave the in formation that they were from the South. The boat? was .subsequently secured by Mr Hilditch. '

POLICE COURT.—This Day.

(Before 11. C. Barstow, Esq., it.M.)

ANTI-TEMPLARS. Six drunkards wore brought up to-.Uy, To answer for their lolly ; Five giddy men wlio'd gone astray— And poor old Iciah Molly.

SENTENCE"*OF THE WAINWBIGHTS

The mention of crime, writes a London -^ correßpondent, recalls the case of the Wain- '"¥}■ wrk'hfs, whose trial had not been concluded ..'"^ when the last Brindisi trail went out. On the following Wednpsday I happened to pass the cud of the Old Bailey and was met by a crowd surging down Hib narrow thorough fare with the verdict just delivered upon their lips. " Death and seven years," ciied some; others, more at length, "One to death, seven years the other," adding, " They ought to hang 'em both." The defence offered for Henry Wainwright was absurd. It was that Harriet Lane had committed suicide. " But how," asked the Lord Chief Juatice, "could that possibly be?" Her throat was cut and three bullets had been fired into the back of her head. Granting she cut her throat, how could she do the rest; or supposing she could fire thrice in the way described, how could she then cur. her thioat ? Besides suicides are not accustomed to bury themselves, as was the case here. The solemn asseveration made by Henry Wainwright before sentence was pro nounced, has shaken the faith of some in his , guilt, and. a rumour is abroad that Thomaa was the actual murderer. But even if he were, none the less does Henry deserve to be hanged, for Thomas could only have done the deed for him as his tool and instrument, and with him the greater guilt would still remain. The execution is fixed for next Tues day, and will fo>m a sad incident in Christ- ' mas week, though now that executions are in "\ private, the tcandal to public morals that; used to be incurred is happily avoided.—The directors of the City and County Bank (one of them an M,P), who have been examined at the Mansion House on the charge of km- . irjg a false prospectus, report, and balance sheet of that company, have, afterseveral remand?, been fully committed for tiial. London, December 21i:t.—Henry Wain wright convicted of the murder os Harriet Lane in White Chapel road, this city, was , hung at Newgate to-day. Just before he was pinioned he handed the Governor of the prison a written statement, which he desired made pubic. In this paper he acknowledges the justice of the sentence, though he does not explicitly admit that he murdered the young woman. A DIABOLICAL PLOT. Another vessel of the sams line as the wrecked ste;nitr Deutchland, tbeMosel, was leaving Bremerhavcn a day or two ago, when an explosion took place of dynamite, causiDg the death of iiffcy or sixty people, who had come to see fiiends off by the steamer. It is said that this dynamite was to bave been shipped on the Mosel, and a train laid for its explosion by a passenger who was to disem bark at Southampton and thare with his confederates the profib from heavy insurances effected upon the vessel. A diabolical plot , (if true), and OLe assgned to an American named Thomas ! The dynamite devil, Thomassen, purchased the nitroglycerine which he used in America. He attributed the premature ex plosion to the cold, as dyuauite is inflam mable when frozen. The chest seems to have been roughly handled by the carrier, who threw it; from a waggon, thereby causiDg the frozen crystals to explode. New York, January 4. —The police to-day received information that a wooden box of a mysterious character had been found in the storeroom of the White Star steamers. The box had been brought from Liverpool on the steamer Celtic, which left on the 14th October, and arrived here on the 24th. The day before she sailed, Thomas sen, who caused the disaster on the steamer ' Mosel, and who eßgaged passage on the Celtic, brought the box on board, and representing that it contained 30,000 dollars in gold, endeavoured to effect an insurance on its. The officers of the steamer refused to insure it without inspec tion, and it was placed in the specie-room. Tfiomassen came as passenger on the Celtic; On arrival he informed the Custom House Inspector that it contained cartridges for his * own use. It was placed in the storeroom on the whaif, and remained uncalled for. To-day it was examined. The box is tweuty inches long, ten inches wide, and c-nphteen inches deep and lined with steel. It contained a smaller box, with two bags of back shot. There were also two other bags cf bird-shot, some old papers, and a few oiled canvas bags. The bags were marked " Walker Palker and Co., London." There was no address on the box. It was further ascertained that Tbomassen took a room &t tne Sixth Avenue Ho* el, on the 24th October, and remained tnere three days, and it is sup-' posed sailed directly for Europe, his project for destroying the Celtic having failed. SINGULAR DEATH. Mrs Childerf, wife of the late first Lord of the Admiralty, was found dead the other; day, having inhaled chloroform to excess. She got out of bed to take a pr escribed dose; when the heat of her hand or of the bed caused the contents of the bottle to expand, the glass stopper to be ejected, and she died in consequence. With a common cork the accident cculd not have happened. MASSACRE OF EGYPTIANS. The Wezer Zeitung of Bremen of December S contains the following account of the cap ■ ture and massacre of a detatchment of.; Kgyptian troops by the Abyssinians, briefly reported some time ago by cable :—We have had news from Abyssinia of an expedition of about two thousand men sent by the Khedive, under command of General Aren drop, a Dane, to subjugate the Abyssinians. They were drawn into ambush and nearly every man slaughtered. General Arendrop, and many other officers were literally hacked to pieces, their heads stuck on spears before the Abyssinians' tents and their bodies sent to the wild beasts. Mackillap Pasha is said to be alive and a prisoner. Of Colonel Routb, the American, nothing is known, and only one officer, Schweizar, escaped. An expedi tion comprising 12,000 men, infantry, cavalry, and artillery, is to be sent out from Cairo without delay, and will be joined by every American officer in the Egyptian service, including General Stone. THE POPE AND THE TURKISH INSURRECTION. The Grand Vizier recently requested the Pope to use his good offices with the Catho lic insurgents in Herzegovina with a view to peace. The Pope has, accordingly, instruc- i ted the Cardinal Franchi to inquire into the condition of affairs there. The Vatican will take no action until the reports of Catholic prelates in Herzegovina are received. Ne gotiations between the Vatican and Spain, in relation to the Concordat, have been sus pended, until after the election of the Cortes. The Times' Vienna correspondent writes that the Greek Metropolitan of Mostar, fol- ':■ lowing the example of his Catholic colleague, has issued a pastoral letter, in which he up braided the clergy for fomenting the insur- v rection, and requiring them to leave their evil ways, and return to their duties, on pain .' j of severe punishment according to his apos tolical power. The Sultan is spending all .; his valuable money in hastily arming his forces on sea and land. Ships and cannon have been ordered. A conspiracy against the ChristiansinTurkey has been discovered, and thirty-six Turks implicated have been ar rested. STFAMSHIP SUNK AND LOSS OF LIFE. . .;..,.„■.
