He cordially approved of their policy in its integrity, and desired to roake them a strong <B**erament who would be able to bring dfcwa a bold policy. He would therefore move as an amendment that all the words after " that" be left out with a view of adding " that while this House is of opinion that whenever the necessities of the colony require further revenue, and direct taxation should be restored to, it is of opinion that the land tax should not be re sorted to whilst subsidies are paid out of the consolidated fund.

Mr McLean followed in a speech against

the land tax. If the Government would •withdraw that the Opposition would help them to pass the Electoral Bill. He said the Treasurers took money from loans to make up an apparent surplus revenue. He did not think they had treated Sir Julius Vogel well. There was an error in the estimates which would reduce the surplus by £25,000. He belived the statement misrepresented the iinacial condition of the country. He con demned the change in the tariff. If the grain duty were abolished, that on timber should go also. The squatters were injured by the railway policy because it made settlers crowd in on them ; they should not therefore be taxed. He opposed the tax on the Joint Stock Companies. He concluded by expressing a strong desire that the Ministry should remain in office another year, at the end of which they would occupy a very different position from the present.

When the House resumed at 10.45 Dr. Hodgkinson continued the debate, ex pressing approval of the Land Tax Bill, but declaring his intention to move an amead ment in . Committee to strike out the exemption on properties under £500. He advocated a reciprocal system, taxes being placed on those countries which imposed import duties on our own produce. He disapproved of so much of the general revenue of the colony being derived from land revenue. The system of subsidies was vicious. During the period imme diately preceding abolition the system degenerated into bribery.

Mr. J. !?. Macfarlane would vote against certain objectionable clauses of the Bill. He believed the ad valorem duties were as honestly collected as possible. It was a great libel upon the people ot the colony to say that frauds existed to any serious ex tent. Anyone making such an assertion must have very little acquaintance with business. If the beer duty became law, it would take more than half the proceeds to collect. It would be difficult to collect in Coast districts. He disapproved of the tax on flour.

Dr. Wallis said be would express his opinion with respect to the general financial policy of the Government. A great flourish of trumpets has beeu raade towards the close of last session about equalising the incidence of taxation, and adjusting the public burdens. He had expected great financial reforms, but the Government with one hand removed thousands of pouuds from the burdens of the country, while with the other they put on just as much more. He' saw three good points in the financial proposals of the Government. First, they announced themselves freetraders. Whilst there was a great leaning amongst young colonists towards protection, he was glad that the Government adopted the principle that the unearned increment belonged to the Government, which caused the in creased value of Jand. The tax laid the foundation of a new system of taxation, which will supersede the present system to a large extent. He approved of the tax on joint stock companies, which was the thin end of the wedge of an income tax. He strongly objected to the duty on beer. The Colonial treasurer talked of a free breakfast table, but proposed to accomplish this by taxing our dinner table. The House should consider whether beer was actually a luxury. He maintained that beer and tea were both luxuries, and necessaries. Tea in certain constitutions tended to foster heart disease, which more abounds in New Zealand than elsewhere. He could only account for it, that people took tea for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and supper. In Bellamy's they set a bad ex ample by taking tea at au ; -ta«r«f"<« «"^" night. Beer was more of tue naUire ot food than tea. From time immemorial certain nations used tea as a national beverage and others beer. He compared the mental and physical qualities of the Chinese and the English. If the Govern ment proceeded on the supposition that tea was necessary while beer was a luxury they were mistaken. The beer tax pressed heavily upon the poor man. The Govern ment would derive only l£d a gallon from beer, while consumers have to pay 4d or sd. By increasing the price of beer there was a tendency to drive people to the consumption of stronger and more dangerous stimulants. Of all stimulants beer was the most harm less, and nutritious. When the colonial credit was exhausted and reckless borrow ing stopped, the beer-barrel would be the moat useful source of revenue. It was no proof that the colonial revenue had increased because they borrowed millions and in flated the revenue. The policy of the Government should be to tax distillation instead ot the natural process of fermenta tion. The Government were encouraging Australian industries and discouraging colonial ones. He believed the Premier intended to treat all classes fairly instead Of fostering class interests. Tea and sugar would not sell cheaper because of the reduction ; the profits go into the pockets of the importers and merchants. The reduction on tea and sugar would amount to about £56,000, or equal tohalf a-crown per year per head, or in a family of five 2Jd per week. The reduction was no benefit to the working classes, while the tax on beer would press heavily. The Go vernment would throw away £96,000 amongst importers aud traders, while impos ing a tax of £120,000 on the working classes. On the whole he approved of the financial policy of the Government, but hoped it would be carried further. Their sincerest friends were displeased with them on account of their extravagance. Unless they abandoned their wasteful ways it would end in their ruin. Mr Gisborne moved an adjournment of the debate, and the House adjourned at a quarter to twelve.

THE OPPOSITION TACTICS,

The general belief is that Mr Wakefield was put up by Major Atkinson's party to speak last night. Mr Wakefield's amend ment was not negatived as supposed in the press gallery, but Major Atkinson cannot support the taking away of subsidies, but will move another amendment. A great number of ladies are expected to accompany members South, per Hinemoa. A lobby rumour says that before Mr McLean spoke last night he went over to Major Atkinson and asked him if he was going to make a speech, and Major Atkin son, who still suffers from a cough, declined intending to reserve himself for a great ora torical effort on finance. Mr McLean re plied : "Well, somebody must speak. "" Go ahead, then," said Atkinson, and Mr McLean threw himself into breach, and made a very careful speech, which, received great attention.

THIS AFTERNOON'S BUSINESS.

Mr Hobbs asks the Premier to-day whether he will lay before the House infor mation respecting the South Sea trade. Mr McMinn asks whether the Govern ment -will introduce a bill to amend tlie Protection of Animals Act, 1873, so as to enable settlers to protect their crops from the injuries inflicted by game. Mr Dignan asks the Government if it will give effect to the report of the Petitions Committee of last session on the petition of Colonel Macdonnell. Mr McMinn asks for depositions and correspondence in the Jolly scab case. Thirty-five orders for the day are oa the order paper. .

MAJOR ATKINSON'S SPEECH. The Land Tax Bill will probably come on for discussion early in the evening, when Major Atkinson will speak at cousiderabig tengtk.

CONGRATULATORY ADDRESS MEETING.

At a meeting i* Bpfereace to the eengrahilft tory address to , Lords Beaconsfield and Salisbury in the Mechanics' Institute yester day afternoon, the number of gentlemen increased te about eighty. Mr B. Tonks, in moving his resolution, said that a threatened European war had been happily averted by the firm attitude assumed by the British Government, of which Lord Beaconsfield arid the Marquis of Salisbury were the two most conspicuous members. It was scarcely possible to form an adequate idea of the war which might have occurred, but had been prevented by their skilful diplomacy. It should be a matter of indifference'whether the two eminent per sons to be congratulated were members of a Liberal, Conservative, or Radical Govern ment. —Mr Isaacs, in seconding, said the Earl of Beaconsfield and Marquis of Salis bury had maintained the honour and integ rity of the British Empire without the loss of a single life, and therefore all political opinions should be set aside in the matter. • Although rather late, they were only _doing their duty as British subjects. He deprecated any attempt to deal with such a resolution as political power,, and said that had Mr Gladstone been in office and rendered similar services he would have been equally deserving of public thanks and congratulations. Mr Peacock concurred in the propriety of offer ing congratulations to Earl Beaconsfield and the Marquis of Salisbury, and considered that they had conferred a blessing incal culable upon the people of the Empire by the firmness they displayed. But he believed the time was now gone by for such congratulations, andmovedan amendmentto that effect. Mr E. Carr considered that every lover of liberty and fair play ought to re joice at the success of the councils of Eng land, of which Earl Beaconsfield and the Marquis of Salisbury were such dis tinguished representatives. He thought that the meeting should have been called for the evening, but agreed that there was a fair representation of citizens present. Messrs Lamb and Hazard supported the resolution. The amendment w-s then put, and negatived ; and it was dcci ied by a very largemajority to adopt Mr Tonks' resolu tion, which was as follows : " That the citizens of Auckland deem it right, as British subjects, to congratulate Earl Beaconsfield and the Marquis of Salisbury on having carried to a successful issue the proceeding at the late Conference ; and that His Worship the Mayor be requested transmit the same."

DIVORCE SUIT AGAINST NELLY DALY.

At the Supreme Court yesterday, the case of Digby v. Digby, being a suit for divorce, applied for by the htnband, came on for hearing before a special jury. The peti tioner was represented by Mr Thomas Joynt; the respondent and the co-respon dent were unrepresented. The evidence went to show that ,the petitioner and re spondent were married in Adelaide in 1865, and that they subsequently removed to New Zealand, and settled in Christchurch in 1876. The respondent went to Adelaide ostensibly to visit her mother. Shortly after that the petitioner learned that she had become a member of Mr Wheatleigh's " Shaughraun " (Sompany, and that she had appeared on the stage in Sydney and other places under the name ot Nelly Daly. She afterwards played with Aucklan^ W^g*^ tohis ears "in March of the present year, as to the goings-on of his wife, that petitioner was induced to take the present proceedings on the ground of her adultery with a member of the Wheatleigh Company. The co-respondent is now acting with a Company on the East Coast, and the respondent is playing in Wellington. The evidence went to show that when in Dunedin, in March last, the co-respondent had been in the habit of being in the respondent's bedroom at a very early hour, and that undue familiarities had been known to pass between them. It was also proved that the respondent used to keep the money of the co-respondent and that on one occasion she told # him that she had paid for the boots aud shirt he was wearing. His Honor haviug summed up, the jury, without leaving the box, re turned a verdict for the petitioner on all the issues, affirming that the respondent had committed adultry with the co-respondent, as alleged in the petition, and that there was no evidence offered to support the plea of the respondent. His Honor then made a decree nisi, ..

A large number of teams and packers are loading preparatory^ to starting for the goldfields, and the prices for carriage are rapidly rising. The Sydney Working Men's Defence As sociation, at a recent meeting, at which 250 members were present, resolved to keep up the auti-Chinese agitation until Parliament moves in the matter. A monster petition is being prepared on the subject. < Mr Bailey, of this place, sends by Capt. Lake, of the yictoria, for the Sdyney Museum, a collection of weapons from a tribe at the head of the Laloki River, the furthest point reached in New Guinea. Now Zealand Bank shares are offered on the Sydney Exchange at £23 17a 6d j buyers at £23105. . • The number of gentlemen in New boutu Wales entrusted with the Commission of the Peace has been added to by the appointment by the Government of 319 new a^ti-conservative meeting. At the preliminary meeting of Liberal politicians to consider the advisability of holding a public meeting to approve of the policy pursued by the- Great English Liberals, Gladstone, Bright, and others, Mr S. Hague Smith was voted to the chair. A letter was read from < the Premier, Sir John Robertson, apologising for unavoidable absence, and promising to attend any monster public meeting in support of Liberal views. Sir Henry Parkes, Ex-Premier, who was present, said that—"haying sympathy with that portion of the nation which had won everything worth winning—and that, as Mr Jolm Stuart Mill said, against the stupidity of their gopponents—he could not allow the message to go home as it did as the voice of the country approving of Lord Beacons field's action. The matter was one of national interest. They had as much to do with it as the people in London had, and werebffected by every pro ceeding that affected the national honour. In any proceedings that were taken he hoped that a careful endeavour would be made to expel all extraneous matter. They did not require to abuse Lord Beacor<sfield ; all they had to do was to vindicate that party of liberal thought and action to which they owed so much. It was his opinion that Lord Beaconsfield would have involved England in war but for the Opposition he met with. He would gladly help to tell those liberal leaders that the address sent home did not represent the people of this colony." The following were appointed a sub-com mittee to draw up an address to Mr Gladstone, and to make arrangements for the meeting :—Sir Henry Parkes, Mr S. Hague-Smith; Mr Alderman O'Connor, M.L.A. ; Mr J. Boseby, M.L.A. ; Mr W. C. Browne, M.L.A.; Rev. Mr Woolnough, Rev. J. C. Kirby, Rev. J- A. Dowie, Messrs Alfred Allen, E. E. Waters, J. C.

Much ado is being made at the present time about the tax on Beer, and the cry is- Why tax the poor man any more." But without ais cuasing the proa, and cons, of the above tax, J. LEVY would call the attention of the Public of Auck- Snd-and especially the Working Classes-to the Great Reduction which he has made in the price of Men's, Boy's, and Youth 3 READY-MADE CLOTHING. . This great reduction on what ia realiy necessary for the Working Man's comfort, will more than recompense him for the tax on boor. Warm Clothing is a necessity ; Beer is a LUXURY. Be wise, therefore, ana nave necessities first, and if you have any spare Cash afterwards, then indulge in luxune3. J. LEVY does not intend in this advertiso ment to suy much, as the Parliamentary reports occupy so much space, but ho has no fear but the few remarks he has offered will cause men to think aright, and if they aro wise, they will lose no time in calling upon their old fnend.who assures them that he has in stock everything that 13 requisite for their requirement?. J.~LEVY Makes no apology for republishing his PRICE LIST again. It caused a sensation before, and will flo so again, especially as nearly all the lines have been reduced.
