the public Court some of the unfortunate family relations, and this it is surmised had a very depressing effect upon Mrs Cross. The poison seems to have been in the house for a long while. None of the chemists '--recollect selling any oxalic acid to Mrs Croi a or anybody connected with her, but at flic same time it is known that Mrs Gilbej^T a milliner in Parnell, used to be in the hb •*$ °i sending acid to Mrs Cross to ■waigliT1' he last was sent about six months ago. It is supposed from this that the un fortunate woman must have kept some of the poisonous compound by her. The whole of the circumstances are of a peculiarly painful character, and the tragic event has created a deep sensation in the neighbour hood, where the deceased was well-known as a cheerful, industrious woman. Mrs Cross during the preceding day had shewn gre;it depression of spirits, and in answer to onquiries as to her health, stated that she thought life was all alike all worry and harass. On it being remarked to her that ill health led to a despondent view of things, she again replied that ill health or ii-ood health it was all alike, life was all worry and harass. On the Monday evening she looked very gloomy, and on her face were evident marks of sleepleness, and unmiV.akeable traces of extreme mental lllTCflt.

INQUEST ON THE HODY,

An inquest was held this afternoon at the Exchange Hotel, Parnell, on the body of Jane Cross, before Dr Philson, coroner, and a jury of fourteen. Sub-Inspector Pardy watched the enquiry on behalf of the police, and Mr Hesketh on behalf of the relatives of deceased.

The jury having viewed the body, the following witnesses were called. William Cross, husband of deceased, deposed : I am a grocer, doing business in Parnell. Deceased was my wife. Been married 20 years. Her age was 48. She was generally in good health. No family. She was working about the nouse in her usual way, that is, yesterday morning. ■ I was engaged in the shop, while she was preparing for dinner, up to clcvon o'clock in the forenoon. At that time Mrs Trust came in with the butter. I went into the kitchen, and told her the butter was come. She asked me to take it, as sha felt very low-spirited, and said she would go aud lie down. I never heard her use the expression before, but she was in the habit of lying down occasionally. She was subject to bilious attacks. I re turned to the shop after I had settled with Mrs Trust and served several customers, occupying about 20 minutes. I went up stairs and saw her lying on the floor, with her head on a pillow. She was very sick ; she was vomiting into the chamber. I asked her what was the matter, she replied "I am dying." Dying, I said, but she made no further reply. Her face had a livid appearance. I picked her xip and carried her into the next room, and laid her on to the bed in the position in which the jury have seen her. She was breathing feebly, and there was a slight noise in her throat. I put several questions to her, but she was unable to answer me. I did not give her anything. She ceased to vomit when I got, her into the bedroom. Dr. Ellis took possession of the utensil. A woman named Spencer came into the shop, nnd I asked her to go up-atairs as there was something wrong with Mrs Cross, and which he could not understand. "We went up together, and Mrs Spencer was with her when she died almost immediately after. She could not speak to Mrs Spencer. I sent for Dr Goldsbro', who was not at home. Dr Elli3 came abotit two hours after she died. I shewed him the utensil, and the tumbler, from which she must have drunk the stuff. It was on the wash-stand in the back room. The tumbler contained a small buantsty of clear liquid, without any crystals at bottom. I tasted it, and believed it was oxalic acid. I knew she had oxalic acid in the house, but I did not know where she kept it. She got it six months ago trom Mrs Gilbert, who usod it for cleaning bonnets. Mrs Gilbert sent it in to be weighed, and gave her a little for the purpose of cleaning the scales. I never saw it, nor did I know positively that she had it. She told me so. The contents of the washhand-basin was put into a bottle. (Produced.) Dr. Ellis examined it. I knew oxalic acid Avas poison, and had frequently warned her of its deadly nature. Deceasod never took Epsom salts to my knowledge; she took a seidlitz powder on Monday morning from the shop. I did not see her take any medicine on the day of her death ; I cannot account for her lowness of spirits, she was naturally of a cheerful disposition ; I never heard her threaten to make away with herself; I think she was in a sound state of mind. I believe she took poison, I have no doubt .about it, but I cannot say whether she took it wilfully or accidentally. We lived happily together, except on one occasion, two years ago ; it was a matter of unpleasantness with a person named Brown.

The intimation that the city shall give a public reception to the Governor we regard as a challenge and an insult. The Governor- has demeaned him

He has maligned and snubbed Mr Mac andrew, and Sir George Grey, and the whole party in which this people negativing the proposal to meet the neces sary expense for preparing the address, for which £25 was ultimately voted. 2£r Ho&gldßSQn on Vogel and Eees. Mr Hodgkinson, M.G.A., speaking at Riverton last night, said he considered that abolition Avas allowed at home by trickery and chickanery. He likened the Vogel ministry to patched breeches. They had been patched and patched till scarcely any of the original was left. He pronounced Vogel a political adventurer and SAvindler, and the last man for the Agent-Generalship billet, which Avas given to make room for other men, as when he returned from Eugland he had lost all power and confi dence in the House. The present Premier i was tricky and unfair, as evidenced in the | appointing of important committees, and pronounced Mr liees the ablest politician in the House, and the coming man. placed, and still place their trust, and iioav he has the audacity to invite this people to give him a public recognition and reception. We candidly own that avo regret this challenge. We had thought that political wounds might have been left to the healing hand of time, and if the Governor, avlio is the most offensive of all the partisans avlio have crushed and in sulted the people of Ota-go, Avas under the necessity of passing through these dis tricts, he would have passed in a quiet aud unostentatious manner, instead of inviting an expression of the estimation in which he is held. We have confidence in the City Council's good taste, and in their know ledge of what is due to their constituents, to reject this insult, which will have the effect, perhaps, of allaying public feeling, which no one doubts Avill be keenly excited at the barest thought of anything like a civic recognition or reception of the Marquis of Normanby. Could the Council be ill advised enough to contemplate exhibiting Dunedin as stultifying itself in the face of the whole colony, sincerely as avc regret necessity, Aye trust citizens in public meet ing promptly assembled, Avill again give expression to their feelings on the subject." The " News " last night lias a similar, but more strongly Avorded article. At the City Council meeting a motion was made to present a congratulatory address to the Governor, and the names to form the deputation being mentioned, one after another declined. The address was spoken of by Rome of the minority as toadyism, while others, Avhen the motion was carried by six to four, Avere desirous of

GOLD DISCOVERY.

It was in excavating for the approaches for the Outram bridge, that gold was dis covered. Froni a practical miner who remained on the ground for a couple of days, the " Times " learns that there are nearly 100 on the ground. The stuff washed out, averaged three or four grains to the dish, and the water being only about 100 or 150 yards away, an experienced miner could make 15s 18s or even £1 per day though a large number of people are on the ground, A rery little has been done in the way of testing. Thero being nothing to show that the wash dirt covers an extensive area, there is no present reason why a rush should set in ; so far as is known, the area of the wash dirt is limited. The discovery Avas made on the Government reserve, but the lead may extend into private ground. THE GLOUCESTER IMMIGRANTS.

ACCIDENT TO MR. LINABURY.

A skrious accident happened to Mr. Linabury, draper, last evening, and which was attended with serious results. About seven o'clock, Mr. Linabury got into his buggy at Mr. Quicks stables, and was preparing to drive home. Ihe horse had not proceeded more than a few paces along Victoria-street, when its feet slipped, the animal fell on its knees, and Mr. Linabury was cast heavily into the street. The horse imme diately regained its position, and rushed into the omnibus at the corner of the street, in conse qivnce of which collision the shafts were separated from the buggy, and the horse ran with the dangling shafts at a rapid pace along Queon-street to the wharf. A crowd of persons gathered round Mr. Linabury, and raised him from the ground, when it was found thathe was unconscious. He was at once carried to the shop of Mr. Welsman, chemist, and Constable Mc- Donald went with all possible speed for Dr. Hooper. Meanwhile Mr. Linabury recovered from his unconsciousness caused by the fall, and on being examined it was found that the bruises onhishoad and body were not so serious as at first supposed, and it is anticipated that by care and rest, Mr. Linabury will shortly be able to return to business. The horse was stopped at the wharf toll-house, aud led back to the stable.

DEVONPORT LODGE, 1.0. G.T.

A.N excellent open lodge entertainment was given by the Dovonpqrt Lodge of Good Temp lars, on Monday evening, on tho occasion of a visit from the Fraternal Home Lodge. Mr Tannor discharged the duties of manager in a most efficient manner. There w-as a very largo muster of members of the Order, besides visitors from Auckland and the neighbourhood. The programme commenced with a, reading from Bret Hart.c, by a gentleman who read most effectively. Mr Itiat then sang, " Tho A neliors Weighed" in capital stylo; Mrs Mont rosn sang, "Sweet Love, good night to thee," and " Birdie's Come," and was warmly applauded in each ; Mr Jamioson gavo a temperance reci tation, and saug tho "Village Blacksmith" in fino style ; Mrs Wright's songs, "Leaf by Leaf the Roses fade," and " Tho Vacant Chair," were given with much taste. After a stirring recita tion by Miss Knox, Mr McKcnzie sang " Widow McChrce," and gavo a recitation in broad Scotch, describing' the wonder of a canny chief of the land o' cakes at an intoxicated person,who looked " vera like a mon." Mrs Hirst recited, in thoroughly dramatic style, " Men of noble thought and mind," and was loudly ap plauded. A recitation on " Pawnbroker:!," a reading by Mr Bel). and a song, "Juanita," by another gentleman, were also excellently given. The gems of tho evening were an instrumental duet, by tho Misses Jlayles and an instrumental trio with readings by the Misses and Master Hayles. The 'entertainment, which was a 'great success, was brought to a conclusion by a few well-chosen remarks by Mr Tanner. The visitors from Auckland then -par took of refreshment kindly provided by Mrs Hirst.

NEW PITT-STREET WESLEYAN SCHOOL.

Tnr; service, to celebrate the opening of the new Pitt-street school, was held last, evening in Ilio room beneath the Church. The gathering at tho fceft was very numerous, and the choice things which appeared on the table disappeared at a rapid rate, Tt was Ion? past, seven o'clock before the public meeting could be arranged, owing to the difficulty of supplying so many visitors. At a suitable time Mr. R.Arthur w:is voted to the chair, and tho proceedings were opened by sing ing and prayor. The Chairman said ho would reserve his speech, which would be of a financial character. Mr. W- D. Buttle read a long report of Die trust proceedings fro»» tho year 1874, re garding tho present and other schools. The first speaker was Mr. F. Battlcy. who gave a short but telling speech (which seemed im promptu), mixing up with it. somo very interest ing anecdotes relative to Snbbath-school labours mi t successes. The Rev. Mr. Taylor was ex cellent in his appoal to the sympathies of the teachers, showing .what evil might be spared to huinanitv °y &x 0 conversion of one boy, and gave some accounts of boys and girls ho had known, who did wondrous tilings in working for Christ. The Chairman nnd Superintendent of the scholgave hispromised financial statementabo_ut the middle of the meeting. It contained in teresting ligures and statistics. The Rev Thos. Buddie spoke for a short time upon the advance ment of the age, and in particular, what was now being done for the young people in the Christian Avorld. Thero was nothing equal to it in the past history of Christianity—the books written, and the efforts put forth for tho well-being of our youth. The Rev Mr West brook gave some excellent advice to those at work in Sabbath-schools, and urged upon them to nee that a firm and sure foundation was laid, and then there was hope for future generations. The Rev Mr VVatkin is one of those essentials in a public meetin:;. He eschews tho sombre and the solemn, and keeps his hearers in excel lent humour. At the close, a vote of thanks was passed by acclamation to the ladies and .choir.

At present their livery stables in High-street were Hooded from the barrack hill in wet weather. The matter was referred to the Streets Com mittee to report upon. THE FIRKBULL A NUISANCE. Mr Oram, of the Prince Arthur Hotel, wrote asking that the flrebsll might be removed from opposite his house, where its rude peals frightened Mrs Oram, and encouraged tho com mission of nuisances.

brokors, requiring them to pay their license fees. The letter requested that the matter might be reconsidered. Councillor Cosgxavo did not think the notices should ever have been sent. He should move that the fees bo not enforced. Or. Isaacs said he did not see why tho brokers should not pay for their licenses any more than auctioneers, but ho thought £25 too much. After discussion, Cr. Cosgrave's motion was put, and was only supported by himself; all the other Councillors voted against it. Cr. Isaacs thought they should reduce the fee. It was explained that this was impossible. The Town Clerk was authorised to 'ay infor mations against brokers who refused to pay. [Left sitting].
