A ROUGH RIDE.

MR BRISSENDEN OVERTURNED IN A BUGGY. A TRWELLEE from HelensviUe gives us the particular of an unusually severe journey Jcrfo-nicd yesterday by Mr Brissenden and rgentlexrin who has lately made some extensive land purchases in the Waikato. Havin- missed Captain Casey a parlia meutarV steamboat, which leaves tor River head daily, and being anxious to catch the Minnie Gasev, which leaves HelensviUe for the Wairoa on Tuesday morning at seven, a two-horse bu_y was hired from Messrs Mofliin and Smith, audit was decided to o-o through from Auckland. Mr J. Smith undertook to drive. The party were un aware of the fiict that the bridges and culverts between Auckland and Helens viUe are in a had state of repair. The Henderson's Mil! bridge is being rebuilt by a contractor, who announced some few days am) that the bridge was not open for traffic. On reaching this latter the trio found the planks not on the bridge, but finding a lot near, laid the same down, and were pro ceeding over this loose plankmg when the boards tilted over. Tiie horse got frightened and plunged about, the gentlemen jumped out. just as the buggy went over fallmg some 15 feet; Mr Brissenden got much S" sedby tie fall, several teeth having been knocked out. Mr Smith stuck to his horse well thoroughout, and was \erj much knocked, about. Wonderful to relate, no serious injury was done to the turnout, and the party undauntedly pursued their iournev. Mr Smith is well-known_ as a wood steeplechase rider, and on tins oc casion appears to have proved himselt a good steeplechase driver, as there were waterjumps and faggotjumps ; however 710 fuither accident took place until arrival at Waikaukau,where the buggy capsized at a culvert jump. The adventurers arrived at HelensviUe at about S o'clock this morning. Mr Brissenden was so exhausted by his accident and the rough journey as to be unable to get out of bed, consequently he did not go by the steamer. _ He had important business connected with native matters, which rendered his presence at the Wairoa almost imperative, but his shaken system requires a few day's rest.

RESCUE OF A PRISONER.

We understand that Inspector Thomson, A.C.. has to-day received a telegram from Sub-Inspector Bullen. of Grahamstown, reporting that while Sergeant Russell and Constable Gordon were yesterday _at Whaugamata, On the East Coast, effecting the arrest of' a Maori named Te Nahi, charged on warrant with horse-stealing, they wer<Trushed upon by about 30 other natives, who excuse the prisoners, (notwithstanding that the constables iired several shots to intimidate them ) One escaped into tho adjacent bush, the police, owing to tbe maltreatment they received, being unable to pursue them. We believe that Inspector Thomson has telegraphed to Wellington for instructions as to whether, under the circumstances, the offenders are to be fol lowed up, or further proceedings held over for a time.

OHINEMURI.

(From Our Own Correspondent.) WAITEKAUIII, Saturday.

Waitekauki.—On Thursdya morning a crack was discovered right across rlie flange of the water-wheel at the b.ittery. and consequently had to be repaired at cuce, which is a matter of no slight difficulty here, the necessary appliances being so hard to get. The waterwhcel, which wrighs just about fO tons, will have to be bodily lifted a height of r. inches, 10 enable the repairs to be eifected, and that would b* no slight matter to do eve:; at the Thames, but here the difficulty is far greater. The manager has sent to Grahamstown for the necessary gear, which is exoected ud at Wairoa on _turuay night. Ie it reaches there about that time, it -ill be taken straight out to the battery, and all hands put on to wo'-k on Sunday, so as, if possible, to get the oa fterv started u.i Mouday nignt, but I hardly exuect to see a s'art m-de till Tuesday night. At the mine tin- ma aager has been busy securing the stones and taking out crusmng dirt, and there will be an ample supply on hand by the time the battery sturts. It is nttl-j^oodattempt ing to give an estimate of trio value of the quartz being broken out, as the battery returns rave so often a eeivea all but a select few. It is about time the shareholders, woke to their own interests, and compelled the battery manager and directors lx> publish the amount of amalgam on lumd each week, and what it n-ould go on re:oiling. Idont know hosr you people in town lock at the last return, but there was a regular -.vail of. in ;ig_tion amongst holders of stock here when it was discovered that stone of such a, poor quality had been put through without any intimation to share holders. Welcome.—This Company has a large quan tity of stone out raady tor crushing, which tho manager estimates to be worth quite an ounce and half or two ounces to the ton. The S"k-act ing section of the tram was held on W ciiu'sday evening, and a couple of trucks sent down, everything going as smoothly as possible, if it had not been for the aooicent ut the battery, crushing would have started on Monaay. Ihe manager is employed developing the No. 4 lode, which is now over i feet 6 inches through : Of excellent quality, showing gold. YouSONewZealaNP.— Driving on tne leader in the low level is nroceeding with very encour aging results, i he leader having been now made into a fine body of si one three feet through ; and I am or opinion this is the long-lost, low level reef, surveyors and others to the contrary, not withstanding. . , The stone is of a very promising nature, and very similar in characteristics to the stone in the upper level. Driving is being done on the reef in both directions iv the upper level pre paratory to breaking out and stopbig in quantity. The noTb drive is on a splendid solid body ot quartz, full of minerals aud visible gold, which in this reef is a sure sign of stone of the best description ; the base minerals being so thick that the gold is rarely to be seen even m stone worth three or four ounces to the ton. Ihe reel in the south drive is very broken ot present, and not of such good quality as the other part, but an improvement will shortly take place, as the reef in the face is making together again, The manager is endeavouring to make a hard push to get a start crushing at the same time as the Welcome and Comstock, which should be some time next week. Comstock.—Three of the shareholders have, I understand, made satisfactory arrangements for the temporary use of 3 head of the Waite kauri battery, when it makes a fresh start.

THEATRE ROYAL.

Ax entirely new drama will be introduced at the Theatre Koyal on Thursday evening, entitled l"Tichborue; or, is he Butcher or Baronet?* The drama is in five acts and- seven scenes, and was suggested to the mind of the writer by the well-known Ticbborne case, which for a season was the talk of the town. Mr Charles Wheatleigh will represent the hero. Sir Roger, the young baronet in love with Emily f and Arthur Orton, the London butcher, also under the influence of the same fluctuating but tender passion. The old squire of tbe old boot and three-bottle day will be presented in the person of Mr Searle, whose old men are white-haired and venerable in their make-up. Mr Bolton will imitate the peculiarities of Roger's cousin. There will be scenes of digger life, and incidents thereof. The interesting character of the butlor Robinson, in the old Hampshire mansion, will receive justice at the hands of Mr Johu Hoyle. Ellen will oe ade quately drawn by Miss Tilly Andrews, full of grace and loveliness, as well as that of the widow by Miss Henderson. The whole cast includes nineteen characters, ''he scenery has been specially prepared by Mr Willis, and is in close keemng with the incidents of the drama.

COTTAGE GARDENING.

(To the Editor of the Evexikg Star.) Sin.—That was a prettily written letter by a

" Working Man" in your Saturday's impression anent "Cottage Gardening." Now, as there are only some five residents in Pompalier-street, it was a matter of little difficulty for the resi dents in and around that immediate locality to sheet it home to us as the aggressors._ Such being the case, we trust to your sense of justice to allow us- publicly to give our version of the matter. Mr Port (the parry referred to as having beea mit, red by. t "Working Man) has grouud divided from ours by a ie.nce, within which fence he has planted geraniums. Some of the flowers forced their way between the paliii^a into our side, and a goat belonging tons (the vandal) cropped them. Mr P had like wise planted two poplar trees equally as close to the fence, its branches overhanging it, and our horse, equal in vandalism to tho goat, banqueted on the succulent twigs. This (although the fault lay not with us) we deter mined should bo made good; wc therefore, at our own expense. leplaced them with new ones from the nursery of Messrs Mason Brothers. Having explained the true facts of the case, we beg to subscribe ourselves—yours very obedi ently. Tuff and Co., Butchers, per T. B. lituuiiiiura.

The meeting is convened to be held in the Academy of Music at half-past seven o'clock this evening. ■ MOANATAIRL A small reef is coming in the face o c the main tunnel, which looks very promising, although no gold is vissible to the naked eye. It is likeiy to prove of some value . as the country is favourable for gold-bearing stone. The sample lot from the reef in the tunnel crushed up to expectations-, averag ing 6jdwts. to the ton. The stopes through out the mine are turning out the usual quantity and quality ot stuff. Good pay able stone has been obtained from tho drive on the All Nations' leader. i The Queen of May Tribute (Primrose and party) crushed eight tons for a poor return of loz. 16dwts. SHAREMARKET.

A commission agent : here —Mr Luckie—was given the local i agency by Mr Mabin, travelling ■ agent ot the Phoenix Insurance Company. ' He got from him the security required, and introduced him as agent to ' some firms. For some unassigned reason, ! the Phoenix agent gave the local ag_cy to • another commission agent. Thereupon the j first person got considerably angry. He '< met the travelling agent in the street on I Thursday, and struck him. The agent ! laid an information at the police office" on : Saturday for assault, but afterwards with- ' drew it. Both parties again met on Satur- | day evening, when the supposed injured I individual went for his opponent, and con- i siderably bruised and damaged him. The I light occurred in Hastings-street, in broad ; daylight. They were, after a struggle, j separated. The (Phoenix agent scampered to the railway station, aud hurried up ; country. j

DUNEDIN, this clay. _as Stop of._apg _^aiast _ro"ftfifoet. Proudfoot's trial on a charge of rape excited great attention. Isabella Angus' examination aud cross-examination lasted till three o'clock. Her evidence was not shaken in any way. Jane Angus, mother of the last witness, repeated the evidence given in the Police Court, and added " I saw prisoner at our house on Tuesday last. He came to the door, and said he was Proudfoot, and wanted to see Bella ; I said he could not see Bella; he said he was not married, and would marry my daughter. I did not speak to him. He further said he was sorry for what he had done. That he had plenty of property and cows, and might keep her the rest of her days. I said ■'* no," and left him. James Angus said, " When I went home on Tuesday night, prisoner was standing inside my door. He said "good evening, Angus." I said "good evening," nod he called me aside and said he wanted to speak to me. He then explained about the affair, and said he was sorry for what he had done, he said " supposing I am not a married man,will you allow Isabella to marry me ?" I said I gthought he was a married man. He said he was not, and if I would consent he wonld be willing to have Bella comfortable. I told him that I could not do that. By Mr Smith : I never carried on negoti ations through Mr Joyce the solicitor or any one else with a view to entertaining a pro posal for marriage 'between my daughter and the prisoner. PRESENTATION.

The "Star" has received information that the whole question of the title of European purchase of confiscated land is about to be tested by an action of ejectment against the proprietor of a largo estate in Waikato. A Strange Story. Immigration Officer Allen sends the following extraordinary letter to the papers : —" I wish to bring before your serious consideration a very mysterious affair, viz. : Donald McLean, unmarried ; Angus McDonald, married; Donald Gillies, unmarried ; Donald Gillies, married; Mrs Malcolm McDonald, or Betty Scott, Alex ander Gillies, unmarried; Donald McDonald, married ; Ellen Gilliea, unmarried, all from St. Kilda; the abovenamed seven men and women went in the spring of 1563 in a boat for some commodity for their families to Harris, but of whom no traces could be found. It was then, and since, thought they were all drowned in crossing the channel, but it now turns out, by an account received of Donald McKinnioii, St. Kilda, who died of fever, at Transvaal Re public, South East Africa, that they were taken away by some bad captain of a ship, which met them in the bay, and had dis posed of them into different parts of the world. They bound themselves by oath they would never declare how they had been dealt with. McKinnon went to Dunedin in 1563, and some other acquaint ances of his came back in the same ship with him from Australia to' Transvaal. I hope you will examine your list of passen gers for the year 1563. "John Mackay. "St, Kilda Manse. '•'July 10th, 1877."

WELLINGTON, this day. Charge Against Mr Mackay. MrPJames Mackay was summoned at the Court this morning for assaulting and beat ing Mr Hislop, M. H. R. Mr Stout appeared for complainant, and Mr Buller for defen dant. Mr Mackay appeared within the bar. Mr Buller applied for an adjournment, on the ground that defendant's witnesses were not ready. He had not had time to procure their attendance. Mr Stout objected on the around of inconvenience. He referred to the paragraph in the " Times" giv ing a garbled account of the assault. He said this was evidently written at Mr Mackay's suggestion. Mr. Buller said the defendant would admit the^ assault. Mr Stout said complainant required him to be bound over to keep the peace in his own recognisances. Mi Buller said that was outside the record. After some argument, Mr Stout consented to an adjournment, on condition that Mr Mackay enter into his own recognisance to appear at eleven o'clock to-morrow. j ROTORUA, this day. ■ Considerable interest has been displayed i by the natives here re the no-confidence : motion.

Tonka, and Dr. Campbell. LETTERS. —A letter was read from the Under-secretary of tho Crown, stating in reply to a letter from the Board, that it is inexpedient to proclaim the lands north of Gisborne, as mentioned in the letter, at present ; and stating further that the lands will be opened as soon as possible. Arthur Utting's Estate.—A com munication was referred to from Messrs Russell and Devore requesting that a deed of assignment from Arthur Utting to John Brycrs might be registered in the olrice of tbe Board, with reference to his land in the Wairoa. Messrs Owen and Graham, on the other hand, asked that tbe deed might be cancelled, as Mr Utting, now a bankrupt, had never paid Is of the £165 on the land. On the motion of Mr Tonks, the Board decliue to register the transfer. GUM DIGGING. A communication was read from Mr It.

CHORAL SERVICE AT ST. PAUL'S.

The lift!i annual festival of the Auckland Diocesan Choral Association was held last evening at St. Paul's Cathedral Church. Some time before the commencement of the service the building in overy part was full of members of churches and visitors. Mr Swallow was the appointed organist of the evening, and Mr Joseph Brown master of the choir. The pro ceedings opened with the processional hymn, specially selected for the occasion : "Through the night of gloom and sorrow Onward go the pilgrim band, Singing songs of expectation, Marching to the Promised Land." This hymn was finely rendered, accompanied by the music of the organ in sweet harmony. As the choir gave force and meaning to the hymn, the Bishop of the diocese, the clergymen, and choristers pro ceeded slowly up the central nave towards the eastern window. The evening service was intoned by Rev. C. M. Nelson, with responses by the choir and choristers. The selected psalnas ; the Sth, 24th, and 29th, were chanted by the choir. The first lesson was read by Rev. Mr Walsh, of Tara naki ; and the second by Rev. C. E. Stuart. The Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis were given by voices in unison. The anthem was the opening passage ot Psalm 76, "In Jewry is God known. His name is great in Israel. At Salem is His tabernacle, and His dwelling in Sion," etc. The hymn preceding the sermon was most ap propriate :— " Pleasant are Thy courts above, In the land of light and love; Pleasant are Thy courts below. In this land of sin and woe." , The appointed preacher of the evening was the Rev. R. S. Hassard, of St. Mat, thew's, who selected hisjjtext from St.gJohn, c. 4. v. 24, " God is a spirit." The Rev. gentleman's discourse was intended to shew that spirit worship was the only real worship and alone acceptable to God. Music he regarded as the handmaid ofjj religion. In like-manner, of more or less importance all the other form and ceremonies associated with the worship of the Church of England were to be regarded, not as worship, but aids and helps. Mr Hassard spoke of the influ ences of music at some length, and offered some advice to choirs on the necessity of supporting vocal and instrumental music of the higherorder, closing with suitable lines from Edmond Waller on music and heart worship. Several other hymns were sung during the offertory, which realised £18 6's 7d, not a large sum, considering the number present. We cannot close this brief notice without touching upon the musical performances of Mr Swallow, which were excellent and praiseworthy. Without reflecting unkindly upon others, we must reiterate the generally expressed opinion of last evening. "We were not aware that the old organ had so much t music in it another remark was "it only required the hand of the master to bring

forth its buried harmonies." We need only add that the music was delightful, s and" the choir were fully equal to their • portion of the festival service.

HARBOUR BOARD.

He would move a motion to that effect. Captain Daldy said the Board had no business keeping up roads. It was not their province. i Captain McKenzie said the Board had undertaken to finish the road, and had never i done it. The motion was agreed to. i Mil. E. HADMLL. A letter from this gentleman was received, asking that the boiler of the steam dredge might be covered with his patent non conductor of heat composition.—The work was referred to the Works Committee.

He would re -1 commend that it be extended two months, and if further time was required he should expect extra, remuneration at the rate of £75 per month.—The extension of two months was agreed to. A Workshop eoe the Dock.—A dis cussion took place on the question of whether the dock should have a workshop, ] provided with proper tools. The matter ; was ultimately referred to the Works Com mittee. ! The Dock.—Mr Errington's fortnightly report on the progress made in the new dock was read.

THE EVENING STAK, TUESDAY. OCTOBER 16, 1877



Several mischievous boys fired one of : the finest trees on the slope of Barrack ■ Hill, near to the Northern Club, and ran away. The tree being very dry was specdly in flames, which were speedly extinguished by Mr Hudson, of Princes street, but not before the tree was literally scorched up and probably destroyed.
