SABBATH BREAKING.

(To the Editor of the STAR). c n > _i was much shocked this morning to ?ead in the " Herald" that the Waitcmata County Council met yesterday (Sunday), for transacting business and : regret that such an example of breaking the babbath should be set by the County Chairman. I

always thought Mr Mays reverenced the Lord's Day, but he appears to be selling his religion like everybody else is, m these wicked times.—Yours &c, SABBATARIAN. North Shove, Jnlv 23rd, 1877. CUKATIVE EFFECTS OF BATHS.

OUR MECHANICS' INSTITUTION.

(To the Editor of the Star)

s.r —The annual public meeting of the Me chanics' Institution will be held in the nail this niarht for the purpose of electing new office holders (librarian, secretary, treasurer, com mittee &c) It is well-known that the present office holders have done all they can to close the institution. I believe proposals were made to cause it to evaporate. The present sub scriber! the subscribers that wore, and those that promise to be, are desirous of having another librarian, secretary, treasurer, and comm e ittee.toai ie e P the institution as it used o be and unless a change be made, it win •i^uredly be very soon closed, or evaporated. OncemoreT would call the public attention to rtS£ that the office-holders have no power to accumulate debt on the P«™ Ke* *n* tution must be conveyed to the new office holders free of debt. If the mechanics of this city place no value upon their own Institution, who do they expect will? The mechanics are certainly not aware of the valuable property that belongs to them, and them only.-l am, &c, A Mechanic and Subscriber.

THEATRE ROYAL.

THE Theatre Royal was re-opened on Saturday evening by a company, mostly composed of local uerforniers. under the managemeni-oiJlr l«,°rn ton, who had prepared new scenery and eftects for the occasion. The first piece ot the evening was "Charming Polly," a little comedy of inno cent interest. "Lucky and TjnluckyDajs was a farce which went well wi'h the audience. The piece of ahe evening however, was the burlesque of " Aladdin, or the woiidertul scamp^ in which Miss Thornton represented the .hero Aladdin. Mr Thornton appeared as the sultan Mr Charles as the Vizier, Miss Jessie Raymond as Pekoe, Mr Hoyleas Magician, and Mr Harry ower as the loncinpr Widow Twankay. lJie performances throughout were fairly rendered, and with due allowance, were satisfactory to the audience-.. The orchestra was unuer tno direction of Professor Cope, whose violin selec tions were of the first order of merit. Ine same bill of fare will be repeated this evening.

KAKANGA HAPE ANNUAL MEETING.

To the Editor of the Evening Star. g u;i Permit me to offer a remark on the late annual meeting of ratepayers. First: A man who endeavours to defend the general interest, the public purse, against the wishes or interests of individuals, must necessarily otfend tne per sons disappointed. Mr Talbot's anger may.well bo excused, when he found lie had met with a man who nether by cajolery nor threats (tor he fied both) couid be induced to go beyond a cer tain point. Second: Mr Talbot's insinuations about the accounts, were only a ruse, as he could not find a single item ot unauthorised expenditure in tho year's accounts, unless it was the sums paid under order of Court: but he may be congratulated on his generalship, for having obtained the assistance of an ally who had no legal status in the meeting, (not being liable to pay rates during the current year) and having contrived to get himself and auy appointed scrutineers, and himself recorder or votes, he was undoubtedly master of the situation, and mv thanks are due to him for having relieved me from a great deal of labour and anxiety, the only recompense for which was tbe good opinion of a portion of the ratepayers, ana the approval of conscience.—Yours, F. Cherry.—Newton, 20th July, IST".

A POUND FOR ONEHUNGA.

To the Editor of the Evknixg S'i'An. Sir —On Monday next our newly elected Borbu"-li Councillors are about to put the finish ing stroke on the public pound bye-laws. Hitherto we have managed tolerably well with out this necessary evil, but I suppose to support the dignity oi a borough, we- must have a pound. In addition to erecting this, they are about to erect some bye-;aws which will have an oppressive tendency, and that are totally unnecessary, I mean tiiose m regard to cattle on tho green lanes—so called streets. In the summer they afford a goon feed for many a settler's horse and cow, and are or no 113" for anything else, and to prohibit this being done wonld baa great hardship. Thore arc only two Streets in Onelmnsa that ought to be kept freejfrom cattle—Princes-street and Queen-street In my opinion the best way to settle the matter weuld be to charge, say 10s per year tor horses and 53 for cows. Thi* would, return a tolerable revenue, and effectually get rid cr nveny animais in Onehunga at, A limit might also be put on the number owned by one person. There are plenty of men who would be glad to do it tor a small stipend. No cattle or horses to be out before 8 or after 5.—1 remain, Yours respectfully Ratepayer.

A DEAR CALF.

(To the Editor of the Evening STAB.) Sir. —During the present week, Messrs Hunter and Nolan sold a number of calves, nnd one calf in particular, which was sold for a ginuea. The fatted calf to which we refer was a Kay of Islands calf, bred and bora there, which has cost its owner at least £70 in coin and notes, and eight days imprisonment, but the inoffensive calf could not help it. An official, who had spent some years on a farm, avowed that the red and white calf, including bones, skin, and tail was worth at least 50s. The animal, when the breath of persecution was over, throve and got so fat, that his bones could not be counted ; he was sent forthwith to Auckland and fetched a ginuea, less Is, in the market. The purchaser was apparently .satisfied, took the calf away, and ere this, tfis body may have filled a number of veal pies, the calf was never conscious of the mental suffering, and heartburning which his innocent presence caused in his native district. The story is'1 a sorrowuil one, and may be re-veaied some day, but if not, the story will be long remembered both as a caution and example. The first owner 01 the calf had been long known, near the Xawakawa, as an industrous man of temperate habits who had brought up a large family, and had never been known, to commit an offence against law and order. But he, and his son, were hastily taken into custody on a charge of cattle stealing, and as hastily committed forgtrial. Fortunately however, for the credit of parties, no true bill was found, and no disclosures made. His Honor, Mr Justice Gillies, in his charge to the grand jury, on the 2d instant, said, the merely having in one's possession an animal that had been lost or bad strayed, does not of itself indicate any felonious intent ; it is not evidence of the person hav ing stolen it. There must be some further evidence, something to show the animus of the intention —the wilful intention to deprive the. owner of the property in it, before you can find a true bill for steal ing it.—Yours, etc., B.

MR STAFFORD'S SPEECH.

(To the Editor).

Rm, —I saw the reported speech, per heading, transcribed by the two Auckland newspapers, but noticed only the brief paragraph on that which Jaraps Wallis has called "the burning Question " —Separation. Seemingly Mr Edwar totattorcl does not discriminate. He said much °f union. Well, there are two or three sorts or kinds of unionism, which fact he totally failed lo observe. He is enamourcdof unionism ; and yet he is the very identical man—the very— who gave here currency to the 3trong and Sticking phrase, " The wretched past." And the "past " has always had this particular sort of unionism, and to" the uttermost extreme. The New Zealand nine separate parliaments under ope has been unexampled in the civilized world's history- And now he actually publishes that two parliamentary governments for these two diverse island places instead of his former ten, will not do. He wants union! Never was there a greater mistake in the employment of terms. He did notjudge it a violation of union ism to maintain ten separate and different Par liamentary Governments; no, but now he says to have two for the two instead of the ten w«uld be immical to unions. Very strange logic! Union, forsooth! Does he really desiderate the perpetuation of the cat and dog union of the "past"—of his own "wretched past?" Sir. all the way through, the argument has been that the only way to real and proper union between these numerous Sonth Sea Islands ie, for each, one and aX alike, to have uerfect internal separationist independency. I fear some did not attend to this argument. Of union there are several sorts, and, you know, sir, we were years ago forced on to the institution of divorse courts. In order to union, commercial, and other, there must necessarily, by necessity oli nature be perfect independency in Parliamentary Government between the two islands, complete separatees of Governmont, in order to union or to united undertakings and aft'ort. Anyhow, andeither wayit seemsmanifest that if Auckland remain much longer governmentally tied to the South Island she will get dragged down even lower yet. Union is strength, say they. Yes, but not the union of pugilists in deadly grip not ofthe kind or sort of "the wretched post."' The right sort of union specially requires a true and honourable basis,—l am, &c,, W. E. Sadler.

He followed the two home, and turned Parnell out of the house, and locked the woman in her bedroom. Powell went away, but re turned and got into the bedroom through the window.

THE MOANATAIRI.

The following is the manager's weekly report : —'' I have the honour to report as follows : 150 ft. levd. S.E. cross-cut is now extended 115 ft. 'from shaft, .and is in good working country ; on the East side the ground has the appearance of the slide being near at hand. North cross-cut is still in light ground, and show progress is being made. 80ft. level No, 1 winze is now sunk over the slide 35ft. The reef is 2hit. thick worth I ounce per ton, and promising for further improvement. No. 2 winze is down 36' ft. below 80ft level, leaving Bft. more to sink. Owing to the accumulation of gas in the bottom, this winze will be temporarily suspended, until the reef is intersected at 150 ft. level. During the fast few feet sunk, the reef has had a more encouraging appear ance, being 1 foot thick, and showing good colours of gold. In the drive west, No. 9 reef looks much improved for gold, otherwise there is no change. The intermediate stopes are look ing very well in the roof, and I have started a rise from the back 25ft to break through into Tunnel levol. This will give easy access for lining the workings below. There is nothing fresh to mention in any of the other stopos Tunnel level. — The cross-cut, 'South East from slide, is extended 5 feet, and in the last few feet the country has much improved aurferous quartz. The iron pipes for rock drill liave all been immersed in hot tar. and a con tract is let for fixing them through main tunnel. The construction of our rescrvour is proceeding satisfactory, and T hope to have the drill at work in a fortnight. 440 tons of quaitz and 2 cwt. of picked stone have been crushed during the last fort night, the returh from which is Gsoozs of gold. All the machinery is in good work ing order. — 11. COMKK."

INQUEST THIS DAY.

Ax inouevt was held at the Auckland Hotel, before Dr Philson, coroner, and a jury, on the body of a native female child named Hera Hocti, who was found dead in the possession of its mother, a native woman named Titijio, on Saturday evening in Chancery Lane.

Mr -John Codling was chosen foreman, and Mr Dufaur, solicitor, appeared to watch the proceedings on the part of the natives. Sergeant-Major Mason represented the police. Mr Dufaur said ho hud boon requested by the natives to asd for an adjournment until Thursday next, as the case might bo more serious than anticipated. Sergeant-Major Mason said he intended to ask for an adjournment in order to have a post mortem examination of the body, and the production of other evidence. ' The hearing of the. evidence was accord ingly adjournod.

The facts are these : On Saturday night, between 11 and 12 o'clock, a Maori and his wife, natives of Waihcke, who were residing in Chancery Lane, were in a state of drunkenness, especially tho woman. The husband, according to his statement, finding the child dead, went in search of a con stable. A little before midnight Sergeant Clarke saw tho woman standing against the Auckland Hotel, with what appeared to be a bundle under her arm. He questioned her, and found that the bundle contained the body «fa child about six months old. He took the woman to the station, and sent for Mr Brown, the Native Interpreter, and Dr. Hooper, both of whom promptly attended. Dr. Hooper examined tke body, but without a post mortem could not speak as to the cause ol death. It is conjeetrurcd that tho woman smothered the child, either accidentally or intentionally, in her lit of drunkenness.
