LECTURE OK "MICHAEL ANGELO," BY DR. ELLIS.

Oxe of the mo?t interesting lectures of the winter sea i:>n of the Younjj Men's Christian Association was delivered last evening by Dr. Ellis. Rev. Thos. Buddie- ojfered prayer. The subject was "The Life and Times of Tvlic-hael Augelo." The Bishop of Auckland ocupied the chair, and. with a few complimentary remarks, introduced the lecturer. Ilis Lordship was a little late, for which he apologised, expressing the pleasure he felt at beiDg present to hear Dr. ElK3—a frent'eman v ,-ho was always ready to aid orery object-, in Auckland worthy of en couragement. The lecturer, on rising, was greeted with a round of applause. He com menced Iris lecture with a splendid description of t-he city of Florence, where the great sculptor spent his early days; picturing in glowing lanfciia-no its surrounding hilis. its villas peeping from sunny slopes, through soft green foliage, with the beautil'ui City of Flowers below. The architectural grandeur, churches, temples, gardens., and rivers in connection with the tfreut names of Italy wro sketched in[a pleasing manner, closing with the poofs lines :— " Of nil the fairest cities of the- earth, Norio are so fair as Florence." Michael Angelo wa.<s bocn in U7L at Chinpi, and illcA in Home in 1533, having lived nearly ninoty •mar. Iliu early days were spent in K/'x-c/K,'-, Flo descended from an ancient family in t'UHCuny, but no mention is made ofhis mother teyr/fld that Of LJIO mother of Btiohael Angelo.

i A number ot fatts in connection w'th hi- I r.rogcss in the art were related i also his n>st maetuis with Lorenzo de Medioi. a happy evei -t towards the development ot£ his wonderfi 1 cenius as an firtisr. The lectur^cnext revi-wcu the condition or the people, aua spoke of the ' revival of learning, when new light and new mode- of thought shone uponT.aly , aperiod of enlightenment acior.g the masses, when art. like fr.e li;Lt of Hearen. shone upon the "jn-t and the unjast:" and singular to state, the lar.es upon which the new light shone were farthest removed from cirilisation. This period wa3 followed by an ago of vice and imaioraiity, a"<l ir, the r.-idst of the sensual hie o£ Florence. v.hiist Saroaarola thundered and declaimed against popular Tices and oppression. Mieha-1 Angelo lired and bniit up that s.^ienaid hfr, which has attracted the admiration of the good and jrreat in all subsequent arc-s. Aa accouLt of the t arhin;.-'-, sutierings, and martvrdoru of Saxonaro'a was giTen. He be came* a monk because of the wretchedness of the world around him. He saw vice everywhere triumphant, and virtue in the dust. Ho re solved to preach in the cathedral of Florence for ei^ht years, and move the peoples if possible. by his voice to repentance : and this ie?olTr, In respect or" time, was singularly prephctic. Angeio's relations with Ju io= II and the Mauso leum were vividly the ceiling of tbe Sistine chapel, and the superb and highly frescoes of iiaphael -tviiich. to his credit be it said, were purchased by Charles I, preserved by Oliver Cromwell, and placea in Wols-y's palace at Hampton Court. (Cheers). The dc-spica.ble character of Canar Borgia was fully exhibited. and the great Itaiians of the period \Yeresucc£Ss -fully reviewed, %vith apt quotations from ilacaulajr and other writers. Auceio's p'&tonic | atfection'for the sympathising widow. Vittoria I Coiour-a. was narrated, shewing that Michael j Angelo was a "divine lover,' as well as an ad- I miracle ar-isfc end poet. The leetnre throughout ! was or a highly intellectual character, closing j with the last years aud death Of the great artist, I and a fine p-eroration on the event.; of the pre- I sent century. leading to a free and united Italy. During the interval of the lecture the Misses MaunselL. Miss Vaughan. and Mr Gradwell gave Italian songs and a duet, Mrs Kilis pre siding at the pianoforte. The whole closed with votes of thanks.

TOKATEA

The annual meeting of the Tokatea Com pauv was lield to-day. Mr Woollams was in the chair, and regretted that one who had worked so hard for the Company as Mr Coupland was not there. The eighth annual report read, stated: "A reference to the plan of the Company's works will shew their advancement during the y?ar. Eighteen hundred and twenty ton? of quartz crushed during the year h;M yielded 1,970 ozs. 14dwts. 6 grs. "of melted gold, being at the rate of about 1 or.. 1 dwt. 15 grs. per ton. The ground acquired on the western side of the Company's original lease has proved itself a valuable acquisi tion, a new run of gold having been dis covered as the drive progressed, which is now being operated upon from the No. 7 rise. The removal of the Company's battery to a position convenient io the van, or No. 6 aud the Xo. 7 levels, has materi ally reduced the cost of delivering quartz from the mins. That from the No. 6 level ia now delivered at about 6d per ton ; and when No 7 level is opened up, quartz will be discharged directly into the battery paddock. The honorarium voted at last annual meeting has been paid to your Directors, and they recoainiend the appro priation of a similar amount for the current 3'ear, viz., £200. The Directors who retire at this meeting are Messrs. Woollams,
