He eon dennmed the dilly-dallying .and shilly-shallying. —(]jhugh-er)—of Councillors a. ho had been olecjted or. distinct pledges to hang tip the Act He Compared the expression of public opinion at tho Ilate meetings to a tidal Avave, rolling froir& Newmarket to Parncll,. along Kybel* Pas 9' . until if. broke uoon Ponsonby. and Ii ':compared tbe attempts in the Council of .the . ' Vocat.es of the Act to the whirlpool of Corr_e.i-/r-kin, in the west of Scotland. They tried wo get appointments made, and to a. hirl the oobonents of the Act round and round until they w;ouldb_ smothered. (Cheers and laughter.) While-.he people unanimously condemned the Act, representatives in the Council supported it- It Avas aii attempt upon the rights of tho people, an example of pure despotism. A majority of tbe Council had transgr. ss'-d the law of the land by aating as if the Counties Aot Avere in operation. vpouncillcr Masefleld was enthusiastic in crying to' get an engineer. (Laughter.) The Council wanted a loan—they all liked money (laughter), and they authorised that precious -02.1 with Wrigtey's angel upon it. (Great. laughter.) The plough of the 19th century in the'seal was probably Mr Masefleld _ idea. (L.inghter.) In spite of all the lawyers in New Zealand he contended that the Act did not come into operation miles _ it were adopted by tho Council, and if the Act were not in force, th. Council bad landed itself in a difficulty by advor ti..ing,a_d other net*. Who would pay for that seal. (Laughter.) No doubt Mr Wrigley would pay for his own angel. (Roars of laughter.) .The speaker Avent on to adduce "financial and common-sense" arguments against the Act, The Ministry saw that a property tax was necessary, and they said, "Oh Aye aro clever people and they are all great fools and asses," (laughter), and they said, "Here is this splendid system of local self government, you are free people, take it, and tax yourselves, and be happy." (Laughter.) If the Act were adopted it Avould be the duty of the Council to levy a rate, in order to pay interest, but they would get enlarged powers of borrowing, and in five years the rate might bo .8 in the £. The £800 which Mr Masefleld estimated as the cost of the Council would be £800 too much. (Cheers.) The speaker shewed that the Act was virtually condemned by all sides of the House. He denounced the departure from the democratic Erinciple of allowing the people to elect the hairmen of Counties, and he said the success of the Road Boards was due to the annual election instead of their being elected for five years, like the County Councils (cheers). He condemned the power given to borrow upon the security of other people's property (cheers). Mr Tole had spoken so eloquently atTSTewmarket, that ho (Dr Wallis) could hardly resist the impulse to rush on the stage, and clasp that estimable young man in his arms (roars of laughter). He went' outside to control his feelings, and got drenchedßin the rain (renewed laughter). He condemned {the powers given to the Governor, which really meant the Ministry, by the Act. The motion for hanging up the Act had stood in his (Dr. Wallis') name since January 17th, and now Mr Maseiield came forward at the last moment t.o rob him of the credit of it. (Mr Staines : Shame ! shame !). Mr Masefleld had acted upon the Avhirlpool prin ciple, and now he came forward to steal his (Dr Wallis') honour from him. (A voice: Pistols and coffee ; roars of laughter and cheers). The speaker concluded as follows : ;It has been ray ambition to have the honour of hanging this Act, but Mr Masefleld has attempted to supplant me, and I hereby, in the presence of his con stituents, publicly constitute him the hangman of the Act, and here, sir, is the rope to hang it with. [Dr Wallis produced a halter from his coat-tail pocket, and flung it with a tragic air of defiance upon the floor, amidst roars of laughter mingled Avith deafening applause. In fact the doctor completely "brought doAvn the house"].

The quarrel between the Ohinemuri and Te Aroha is as far off settlement as ever.

Whether the challenge will be accepted or not remains to be seen, but it has not improved the tone of affairs a 6MORE NATIVE BOUNCE. The men working for the County Council in the formation of the line road between Hikutaia and Paeroa, have a lively time of it. The natives have been at them daily, bouncing and threatening, but they steadily persovered. Mr Aitken, County is up inspecting the works, and the natives hear in"- of his visit, sent two horsemen after him to°bring him to their Pali, that they might talk over matters with Mr Puckcy, Native Commissioner, but Mr Aitken refused to return. The native then said that if he had help he would patu (kill) theni? Aitken and his companion. He then rode back for his friends, and Mr Aitken made tracks for the camp of the road party.

MR DUXLOP, avlio Avas brought up from Samoa'a prisoner on board the Chary bdis, was set at liberty yesterday evening, both the Customs authorities and the police declining to indorse the summary proceed ings of Mr Liardet at Samoa, Dunlop may have been to blame for proceeding to sea without the master, but that is no reason why he should have been treated as if he had committed barratry. The injustice to Messrs McArthur and Co. in seizing the vessel and sending her back to Auckland with all her cargo is also very palpable.
