Fined 20s and" costs, and to find sureties, himself in £50, and two others in £25 each, to keep the peace for six months. ALLEGED FELONY. Louisa MoKenzic, a respectable-looking person, was charged with stealing a gold ling and gold locket, value iA ss, the property or James Brooks, of the North Shore, on the 12th April and 3rd October of the'present year ; also, a blanket, value 10s on the 2Gth July, the property c: James Richmond : also a work-basket, value 3-. on the 30th October, the property of George Drown. ?!;• .hfeActb r.ppeaivd for the prisoner. Elizabeth brooks deposed that she knew jhe prisoner, mid on the U;.h. April luat, :.ihe ■went to Auckland, and left her linle girl in charge. She was away two hours. On re tunu:;gGJie ini-.-r.l her gold locket from the :naiiiCl-v)iec?, an:! rfie nevei saw it again until it v.'as shewn to her by Detective Grace. At the request of Mr Jlesketh, witnesses T.; I.ir liesketh : fcshe wus away from her home four months on ;i visit to the Yvainna. She had done sowing for Mrs LlcLCenzie frequently; but not since she lost her locket. 1 S!ie suspected that Miss MeKeime had taken the locket because no ono else had been in her houce during her absence. LI-::-,- Brooke ikmuhter of the preceding, <lc">":-.ed t'lal during her mother a absence -Jrfsoner came in, and wanted to see the ;•; Li-inacrtssar her mother was making. She fetched it out of the parlour, leaving Vis McKenziJ alone in the kitchen. The 7"<7ck'''t"w;'s on tiie shelf in the kitchen, and v.-Jicn her mother came home she missed it. To Mr Hesketh : She had a sister, but she w:i.~ at srhool at the time. There was no ono in the house beside herself. Detective Grace gave evidence. He heard that flic things had been lost-, and wont to prisoner's house on Thursday last, and told her that a ri-ig and locket had been lost by Mrs Brooks. She denied all know ledge of them. _ There was not a locket in the" family. Hor sister who, she said, was -.i-one to Onehunga, came in at tho moment wearing a locket which Mrs Brocks subsequently recognised es her own. Miss Roach said her sister (the prisoner) had given her the locket. Mrs McKenzie then said that her little boy had found the locket twelve months before, and that she had given it to her sister. The ring, which i was on prisoner's finger, war- also identified as Mrs Brooks' ring. Prisoner said her little boy found the ring on the beach. To Mr Hesketh : Prisoner seemed quite calm, even while he was searching the house. Ellen Roach, .sister to prisoner, deposed that she received the locket as a present from her sister. Constable Hogan described the meeting of Mr and Mrs McKenzie in the cell yester day. Her husband said he should employ counsel ; she said it would be use less for him to waste his money, for she should plead guilty. Mr Hesketh asked to examine the prisoner, but His "Worship said this could not be done in the present case. Mr Hesketh then addressed the Court for the prisoner. His Worship said that he could only come to one conclusion that prisoner took the locket with the intention of stealing it. The charge of stealing the blanket was next 'proceeded with. Jane Richmond, the wife of James Rich mond, deposed that she missed a blanket from her garden fence on the 20th July. The blanket produced was herproperty. It cost 10s when now, but that was before she was married. She knew the prisoner, and told her at the time of her loss. Mr Kesketh said the prisoner had taken the blanket, and owned that she was wrong in not returning it ; and according to Mr Hesketh's advice, she pleaded guilty. Sub-Inspector Partly said he would con sent to the other charge being dealt with summarily. Mr Hoskoth said the information should have been laid within six months' of the data when the alleged offences were com mitted, and it was not so laid, as the larceny of the ring and blanket were lost in Oct. 1576. His Worship said he was very sorry to sentence a person of prisoner's apparent respectability ; but however painful it might be. there was no other course open to Film. She had pleaded guilty to stealing the blanket, and on that alone he should pass sentence, which would bo two months' imprisonment with hard labour. Tins was all the business. ■>

COTTAGE GARDENING.

(To the Editor of the Evening Star.) sik —I see by the Evening Star of vyednrsday last' that it is to bs regretted that so few o£ our working cla^s do not cultivate their allotments. The reason of a great many nol doing so is not far to seek. Take three allotments, the centre cue belonging to a man wh© is fV.nd or flowers. and takcs'd'jjigkt in his garden. Sacn side of him they ksep fowls, (coats, aud sometimes a horse, and his thmgs are destroyed by one or the other, and the ma a with the garden gets dis gusted I knosv a cnsG nov,- in PomDilier-street, ?»oiisoiiby where the man had brought his garden to a high state of cultivation, and it was his intention to have competed in the forth coming Exhibition, but a person came to live by the side or' him who allowed his to cut the flowers off along three-parts of his fence, which had taken three years' labour and growth. After beir." spoken to about it, he allowed his horse to break down two nice young poplar trees, and so ha? SDoilt the whole effect of the rjarrlens, and has quite discouraged the man, and I am arraid it is tho case with many others ; whereas around London they vie and combine with each other in making their gardens the best. —I am, etc., A Working Man.

A SINGULAR SURGICAL OPERA TION.

\.T the Hull court, before Mr W. C. Beasley Recorder, Ambrose Culver, a ship's carpenter, brought an action to recover £S(K) damages from Messrs Hunt, FoAvler, Jack, and Co., for personal injuries — Mr Spurr represented the plaintut; Mr Wilberforce (instructed by Mr A. M. Jack son) the defendants.—Plaintiff, a married man was apprenticed to the defendants, and received 255. a week, having a previous knowledge of his business. On the 17th of march he was directed by Mr Hunt to assist at a crane. With the hcjp of a boy, he commenced to heave up several pitch pine planks of considerable length. When they had raised them some distance, they discovered that one end was fast to a pile of wood. Mr Hunt, seeing the difficulty, went to the crane, and having done something there, assisted in heaving The lower ends of the planks were released, and went into the air, but not beingproperlybalanced,the heavier ends swerved downwards, and struck plaintiff on the head and hands, crushing two of his finders. At the same time he felt some thing "ive way, and looking down, he saw a boneprotruding through his stocking, just over his boot top. On being taken to the In iirmarv heremainedthereseventydays, and durin* that time one linger was amputated and a°piece of flesh taken cut of his thigh. Defendants allowed him 15s. a week from the 17th March, 1576, until January 28th, lS77,and he was now a cripple and unable to follow his trade.—Mr Shorburn, house surgeon at the Hull General Infirmary, deposed that plaintiff would always be lame, the principal bone of the foot having been removed. " The surrounding soft parts were unable to recover from the injury they had sustained, and sloughed and Cnod. _ They were obliged to Take a portion of bkin trom another 'part of the body and transfer .it to the lav, surface. Eight pieces, each piece of the size of a pin s head, were so transplanted, and seven of them grew, so that the large resulting sore was healed. The cure was looked upon as a very satisfactory one. The treatment was a German discovery, and had only beea known about four years. The injury plaintiff had sustained was permanent. — After othur evidence, the defendants, acting under counsel's advice, consented to a formal verdict being entered for plaintiff r-dainages £50.

TELEGRAPHIC.

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDEXT.) GRAHAMSTOWM, this day. Sultan.—Thp Mine Manager of the .Sul tan Gold Mining Company reports favour ably of the mine. He says : " The reef lias been driven on 40 feet. This reef is 2ft Sin wide, the last 10ft increasing in size. A little gold can be got by crushing and wash ing the stone. It has been arranged to take out 1(3 ions of stone for a trial crushing. Those who have recently visited the < mine are of opinion that the Ene.getic reef is one of the best in the district, and should have a good show of gold in it." MOANATAIRI. Tiiis company cleaned up for the week this morning, and obtained 7240zs 15dwts. 401b3 specimens were crushed with the general stuiK " Tinker's Gully Tribute re;di. el ociwts from ten ton crushed. The Sharemarket is brisk. Moanatairis buoyant at £5 2s 6d to £5 ss, with an up ward tendency. Albumias sold well at 07s Gil. Kuranui Kills are steady at 13s Gd to l-5.-\ CALEDONIAN. The Manager is busily cm ployed talcing out another crushing, which will amount to about 45 tons. Twenty head of stampers of the Kuranui battery lias been engaged, and crushing will commence on Monday. A irsady 22 tons have boon, broken out from No. 2 "reef, which is five feet tiiick, and looks very well. No specimens have yet been obtained, but it is very probable that there will bo before all the stone is broken out. No. 1 reef in the upper level of the Otago sec tion is improving as it is driven towards the old Golden Calf boundary, whilst in the country is favourable for driving. Driving on the hanging wall of this reef is being pushed on as quickly as possible, as it is believed that a run of stone similar to that obtained from No. 2 reef will be met with, in which case more stampers can be employed at the battery as the output from No*. I and 2 reefs will be large. ALBURNIA. There is very little fresh news from this mine. Some nice-looking golden specimens were broken out from the drive at the bottom of the winze, on the Whan level, which is put in to intersect the old speci men lode. When retorting takes place only a fair yield is expected, as the show of amalgam looks well one part of the day and poor the other. The Queen of Beauty retorted [for 150 o^s. The stone was taken from the City of London section. The Piako return is not yet in. COROMANDEL, this day. TOKATEA. The Manager reports gold seen in the block between No 2 and 3 rises. The stopes between 4 and 5 rises shew a large quantity of base metal, leader in the stope going out from No. 5 shewing a little gold. The run of gold between G and 7 rises is not being worked upon at present. The tributers crushed and obtained forty live ounces. Royal Oak.—The manager reports from a Little and Good leader No. 2 block, a , little gold was seen occasionally, and some , pounds of picked stone and specimens obtained. There is no other particular change to note except the fact that the ground in the lower level is easier. UNION BEACH CRUSHING. The Union Beach specimen crushing is finished, and retorting going on. The Union Beach has 404 ounces from the specimens. Snowdeu's claim obtained IGO ounces from the crushing, averaging eight ounces T>er ton. CONGRATULATIONS TO SIRGEORGE GREY. A public meeting was held last night, congratulating Sir George ,Grey on the ac ceptance of office. A resolution was passed that an honour was conferred on the constituency by the Premiership being confided to him, and the meeting was unanimous in trusting a cordial support would ba given to his ministry, as the public knew he was not guided by any other motives than those for the good of the country generally. George McLeod, Esq., chairman, telegraphed the result of the meeting to Sir George Grey this morning. RUSSELL, this day. Arrivals : Ruby, Phconix, and Wanaka. The Wanaka sails as soon as coaled.

Judgment for £35 and costs. WELLINGTON, this day. Soa^y Seateaee £e» Arson. The third trial of Haggcrty for fire raising took place yesterday before a fresh jury and fresh judge (the Chief Justice). The jury were locked up from G till 9.30, when they were sent for by the judge. They still disagreed, and were again locked up. At midnight the judge sent for them again, when they agreed on a verdict of guilty, coupled with a recommendation to mercy. It is said the jurymen compromised matters on condition there was this recommenda tion at 10 this morning. The judge sentenced Haggerty to live years' penal servitude, saying it would have been more but for the recommendation of the jury. NAPIER, this day. HAWKE'S BAY AGRICULTURAL SOCIETIES DINNER. At the Agricultural Societies dinner at the Criterion Hotel, Messrs Stafford, Ernest Gray, Wrigley, Cox. Williamson, and Teschmaker, were among the guests. Colonel Whitmore was in the chair. In response to the toast of the Assembly, Mr Stafford rose and was received with tremendous applause. He said he had frequently responded for the House of Representative as the oldest continuing mem ber of 23 years' standing. He was in a sense the heavy father of the House, and was often troubled "by the doings of his offspring. Amoii" all the benefits of the Agricultural Society, the greatest was the bringing settlers from one part of the colony as fudges to co-operate with settlers in other parts. This tended to nationalise the people of New Zealand. This had been the chief aim of his (Mr Stafford's) legislative life. (Immense applause.) Air Wilkin, of Canterbury, responded to the toast of the Kindred Societies, and Mi- Ernest Gray to the Judges. He said there was a wonderful improvement in the show of merinos since last year, and progress also in Lincolns, though not so great. Mr 11. Miller, in replying, remarked that in the lastjfour years the Hawke's Bay clip had increased from 14,000 to 23,000 bales. Such increase wus hardly paralleled. Mr Cox, M.H.R., proposed the successful competitors. Mr J. T, Ford, of Christcliurch, in responding to the toast of the visitors, said the Lincoln ewe hoggets were the stronges class he had seen in a yard. Mr Teschmaker responded for the ladies, amid great applause. NELSON, this day. FATAL ACCIDENT. The body of a miner named Hop wood was found at Coiling wood, dreadfully crushed by a fall of earth. His arms and lc"S were broken, and splinters of timber driven through his back. He was working Jj lave and enthusiastic meeting of \ ohm tecr.3 ami citizens was held to present Cantiin Marshall with a testimonial and purse of sovereigns, previous to leaving Nelson,
