HOUSEHOLDERS BEWARE!

There is a class of itinerant vendors in some parts of England who go about the country hawking cigars, tobacco, silks, and other goods, which they represent as having been smuggled, and as being therefore sold at a ruinous sacrifice. The transactions aie usually conducted with a great deal of sham mystery, by which simple-minded country folks are frequently deceived. It may not be generally known that two of this ingenious species are now going up and down in Auckland, and wandering to and fro in search of customers. They are both representatives of the .lost tribes, one having recently come over from Melbourne, while the other has been some time in Auckland. They have a quantity of damaged shoddy which they represent as bankrupt stock, but, as several unwary purchasers have found to their cost, it ismere shoddy of the most fragile description, but got up with a gloss to look like first-class goods. One " young man from the country" invested iv a suit of these the other day, and being anxious to make an impression on his inamorita, on his Avay home donned the clothes at once, and like Gilpin rode away light of heart. He had not pro ceeded many miles, however, before a certain disagreeable sensation in the region of the saddle caused him to dismount and inspect, when to his horror he found that that portion of his unmentionables which came' into contact with the saddle had nothing remaining save a few pieces of frayed out list. By the kindness of a friend he was enablod to change his costume and to proceed on his journey. This is only one of a number of similar incidents.

The Stabbing Case.—Further Particulars.

The ]ate hour at which this occurrence took place yesterday precluded our giving more than a few meagre particulars, which Aye now supplement with the full details. At about 3 o'olock yesterday afternoon, a woman in an excited state ran up to Con stable ttrathern, and informed him that a girl had stabbed a woman at the end of Wellesley-street West. The constable hastened to the house indicated, at the junction of Wellesley and Sales-streets, Freeman's Bay, "and there found Mrs Dogherty lying on a sofa, and bleeding profusely from a wound in the head. " Mrs Dogherty's daughter, on seeing the constable, made a rush towards the window, intending to escape, but in jumping out was intercepted by a woman', a neighbour, Avho held her fast until the,policeman arrested her. The facts as gathered by our reporter from Mrs Dogherty and the neighbours are as follow :—Mrs Dogherty, after dinner, went out, returning about 3 o'clock, when she found a girl named Samh Ann Home, well known to the police and the habitues of the Court, standing outside the house. Mrs Dogherty went inside, and found her daughter sitting at the table in the act ot taking her dinner. Mrs Dogherty said to her daughter " Why do you bring that bad girl about the house? Go and send her away at once ?" In reply the daughter used some disgusting epithets, and said the girl Home was better than Mrs Dogherty. Naturally wrath at the language used, the mother seized a hearth broom, and threatened to chastise the refractory girl, but the latter snatched up a table knife, and with more opprobrious language, threatened to stab her mother. Mrs Dogherty made a blow with the broom handle, with the object, as she represents, of knocking the knife out of the girl's hand, but the latter made a rush at her nourishing the knife. Mrs Dogherty retreated, and endeavoured to get behind the door, but was overtaken by her daughter, who stabbed her in the head, exclaiming: "Take that, you old ," Mrs Dogherty lustily roared " murder." escaped by the door, and ran up Wellesley-street, but fainted from loss of blood. Dr. Hooper was called in, and with the assistance of some men, carried the woman to her house. Sarah Ann Home, who gave information with the utmost reluctance, states that she was standing outside the gate waiting for the girl Dogherty to come out, when she saw Mrs Dogherty rush out, bleeding from a wound in the head.

The injuries inflicted by the knife consist of a deep cut on the left side of the head. The cut is semi-circular in shape, a good deal of blood has been lost, but the wound is not considered serious unless erysipelas set in. Fortunately the knife was blunted at the point and slightly bent, and the penetration was impeded by a quantity of hair, otherwise the wound would probably have proved fatal. The knife is in the possession of the police. The girl Dogherty was brought up at the Police Court this morning and remanded until Wednesday next.

POLICE COURT.—THIS DAY.

(Before A. Beethani, Esq., J.P., and J. Newman, Esq., J.P. INTOXICANTS. Mary Aim Gillim, a lady in widow's weeds, with a masculine type of counten ance, pleaded guilty to being drunk and disorderly. She was only having a row with her brother. Third offence within three months. Fined 20s and costs, or 48 hours, with five days' imprisonment for disorderly conduct. Elizabeth Di&drich, a lady with a red mantle and blue feather, pleaded guilty in cheerful tones to a second offence. Fined 20s and costs. William Still for a first offence was fined 10s and costs. TARCENY. Theodore McVicker was brought up on a charge of larceny. It appeared that the accused had departed without taking a last fond adieu of his friends at Kawakawa, and that subsequently to his departure certain articles were missed, some of which were found in his possession at Wairoa when arrested. The police telegraphed to Kawakawa, but the Sub-Inspector now stated that the evidence there against the prisoner was insufficient to warrant a remand. The prisoner was therefore discharged. The Stabbing Case. Elizabeth Dogherty, who appeared " like Niobe, all tears," was charged with having unlawfully and maliciously stabbed and wounded one Mary Dogherty, her maternal parent. The accused sobbed "*not guilty." Sub-Inspector Pardy stated that yesterday the girl was in a house with her mother, who reprimanded her for improper conduct. She used bad epithets in reply, rushed at her mother with a knife, and stabbed her in the head ; and if her mother had not run out of the house, would probably have slaughtered her in cold blood. Dr. Hooper had attended Mrs Dogherty, and certified that she was too ill to attend. The Bench : Is she in the hospital now ? Sub-Inspector Pardy : No, at her own house. I must ask for a remand until this day week. The Bench (to prisoner) : How old are you? Mr Pardy; Twenty; she must be twenty. Prisoner : No, I am just sixteen. Mr Pardy : She must be more than that. I have known her on the toAvn for six or seven years. . Kemanded for a week. —■-- FILIAL INGRATITUDE. A charge against William Kelly, of fail ing to contribute towards the support of his mother, who had rocked him to sleep, was adjourned until the Ist prox.; the accused, who is employed on the railway, promising to pay up arrears at the end of the month.

SUPREME COURT.— Yesterday.

CRIMINAL SITTINGS.

(Before His Honor, Mr Justice Gillies, and a common jury. Mr Thomas Rogers, foreman.)

ALLEDGED FRAUDULENT BANKRUPTCY.— THE CASE OF HENRY SOLOMON MEYERS.

The whole of the evidence was given in our issue last evening. Counsel on both sides addressed the jury. His Honor summed up the facts of the case. The jury retired at seven o'clock to con sider their verdict, but were unable unani mously to agree. His Honor sent several times to ascertain if there were a probability of agreement between them. The foreman expressed his doubts on the subject, and at half-past ten o'clock the jury were in the same undecided position. His Honor said he had no power to release them under the circumstances, and they were locked up for the night. The Court was then adjourned until half-past nine o'clock this morning. The defendant was ordered to re-enter into the recognisances for £1,000, with two sureties in £500 each, to appear on the 16th instant.

THIS DAY.

His Honor took his seat at half-past nine o'clock. ALLEGED FRAUDULENT BANKRUPTCY. The foreman of the jury informed the Court that they were unable to agree m their verdict. His Honor then discharged them, and adjourned the Court until half-past nine o'clock, when his Honor resumed his seat. A new jury was then called, but as the whole were challenged, with the exception of four,'.; His Honor said that the case must be adjourned for a week in order to summon fresh jurymen. _ Mr Brookfield said he had to inform the Court that two important documents m the case, which were entrusted to the jury for examination, were missing, and had not been returned to the Registrar of the Court. Mr Wilcocks said it was quite true. The foreman, Mr Prince, was then called upon to answer, and said they were placed in the cash book, in which, however, they were not found, but on shaking the bundle of documents they fell on the floor. Mr Rees, having made some remarks on empannelling another jury, His Honor said he had no power as in England of empau nclling a jury forthwith. Fourteen days' notice was necessary to obtain a jury here. The trial would have to be postponed until he sittings of Criminal Sessions in April next, but in order that no similar failure of justice shall take place, the Registrar of the Court would summon sixty persons to serve on the Jury instead of i tarty-six. Mr Rees applied for the formal discharge of the prisoner on certain grounds, but which the Court refused to grant, allowing the prisoner to enter into his own recognisances as before. OTHER CHARGES. Henry Solomon Meyers? was (then ar raigned upon several indictments, with concealing debts due to him with intent to defraud his creditors. (1.) In respect of the promissory note, £41 12s 6d, from P. H. Gibbons & Co. (the subject of the preceding enquiry). (2.) In respect of a cheque of £116 14s 6d, freni Ehrenfried and Co., brewers.! (3.) A promissory note for £137 Is lid, from Charles Burton. (4.) A promisfory note, or bill of exchange, for £150, from John Hanson, of Newton. Prisoner pleaded not guilty. Mr Brookfield appeared for the Crown, Mr Hesketh for the opposing creditors, and Mr Eees, instructed by Mr Devore, for the defence.

The names of the jurymen were called, and eleven unchallenged took their seats ; the twelf th juror was still wanting. Mr Brookfield suggested that the jurors now be called upon. Those who had been challenged should be examined in the wit. ness box.

His Honor said that could not be allowed. Their bias, if they had any, in favour or agaiust the accused must be otherwise shewn.

Mr Hugh Hogarth was challenged, and on being sworn, deposed that he was for merly in the employ of Messrs Lewis Bros., and felt that he was biased.

His' Honor excused Mr Hogarth from serving. The doors of the Court were then closed, and the sheriff (Colonel Hanltain) requested to select a qualified person to add to the jury from the crowd. A man was brought forward and sworn, but was challenged by defendant's coun scJL Mr Brookfield submitted that bis friend was too late in challenging the juror, as he was sworn. His Honor coincided with the latter opinion, and the new juror took his seat. The charges against the accused were then read over to the jury, and the case was opened at 12.20, by Mr Brookfield, who re marked upon the time that perhaps had not been wasted in selecting the jury, and he had to congratulate the Court and all con cerned in this tiial in having before them a respectable and intelligent jury, who, he had no doubt, would return an hones b and unbiassed verdict. Mr Brookfield having explained the particulars of the charges, Mr Kees spoke at some length, shewing that the indictment should be quashed or the prosecutor be compelled to elect on which count he will proceed. Mr Brookfield replied, and contended that the real offence in this case was the con cealment, and there was necessity to compel the prosecution to make such an election as that described by Mr Kees. A long argument followed. Henry P. Gibbons deposed that he was indebted to defendant in July last for jams and other goods, amounting to £41 and a few shillings, fer which he gave a promis sory note. This witness's evidence was a repetition of that given by him yesterday. Mr Rees was about to cross-examine the witness, but Mr Brookfield objected on the ground that it was irrelevant, as the charge was for concealment, and nothing to do with Stichbury in relation to the promissory note. , . T ,, . . , Mr Burton, confectioner, Louis Ehreniried, Lionel Phillips, John Hanson, Thomas Macffarlane, and Edwin Hesketh, were ex amined, and the case was proceeding when we went to press.

STEPHEN MASSETT AT THE NORTH SHORE.

Mk Massett amused the people of toe North Shore, last evening, in the Devonport Hall, with one of his intellectual and very amusing enter tainments, and which throughout was highly appreciated by the quietly disposed and natore loving inhabitants of that romantic suburb. Mr Massett sang several of his own poetic com positions, which we.c warmly received, and in troduced, among others, the pathetic story of the "Death of Poor Joe" from "Bleak House, which Mr Massett read to Mrs Dickens, the widow of the great novelist, at her request. This evening Mr Massett will give his fare well entertainment at the Choral Hall, for which a splendid programme has been provided, to he given under the patronage of His Honor Mr Justice GilHes, His Honor Judge Fento«, and Henry Brett, Esq., Mayor of Auckland. Ihe nroTamme of this evening will embrace a number of new pieces, some of which are intensely beautiful for chastity of thought and noetic imagery, while others inspire laughter on the comic side of humanity. We need only re%rto the " Two Stutterers ma railway car' "women's Rights Lecture,', and "Corns and Hpns" (The lecturer will introduce "Violet Byesi " and other of his original compositions, also "Bob Cratchit's Christmas dinner," from fhe famous Christmas Caro, James Smith's wlesque'of Enoch Arden, Irish reading, "The Sottows of a, Lecturer," from a lite-picture, and £S r^fipst his clever imitations of public s^akeTs singers, Ind actors. We trust the people will recognise Mr Massett s labours this evening by filling the Choral Hall.

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT. WELLINGTON, this day. TRESPASS.—IMPORTANT JUDG MENT. A question of considerable importance to the owners of dogs was decided by Mr Crawford, R.M., this morning, when delivering judgment in the case of Moore v. Grear. The case was heard a week ago, when it was shown that the plaintiff's dog worried some sheep owned by Mrs Nott, of Tara Flat. The defendant was employed to shoot the animal one night when he found it at large. He followed it on to plaintiff's land, and shot it. Mr Crawford reserved judgment for a Aveek, that he might look into the law on the subject. He now gave judgment for the defendant, holding that as the dog was proved to have worried Mrs Nott's sheep, the defendant as her agent was justified in killing it although the animal was not at the time upon Mrs Nott's ground. V nder any other ruling the Act would be practically inoperative, as, when a disturbed dog would naturally run for its home, it would give the owner of the sheep no chance to ghoot it. COMMISSION OF ARMED CONSTABULARY. The statement that Colonel Whitmore retires from the Ministry to take the Chief Commissionership of the Armed Constabu lary is totally unfounded. No successor to Colonel Moule will be appointed ; his duties will be discharged by Colonel Whitmore in his capacity of Defence Minister, but he will receive no salary or allowance.

DR. SOMERVILLE'S SERVICES.

EVANGELISTIC ADDRESS.

There was another large audience at the Theatre Royal last evening, the building being crowded. The proceedings were opened by the hymns " Whosoever Will" and "Waiting and watching forme " being sung by tha choir, under the leadership of Mr W. F. Somerville. Rev. VV". J. Williams engaged in prayer, and Rev. R. McKinney read a portion of the Scriptures. Before commencing his address, Dr Sornerville reque-ted the audience to offer inward prayer to God to be present with them on this occasion. He then began the discourse, selecting as his text the 19th verse of the 11th chapter of the Acts of the Apostles : " Now they which were scattered abroad upon the persecution that arose about Stephen, travelled as far as Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word unto none but unto the Jews only." The address was well delivered, and was exceedingly well illustrated by the rev. gentleman. At the conclusion the choir sang " Yet there is room." The benediction having been pronounced, the meeting ter~ minated. Aninquiry meeting was subsequently held, when between 100 and 200 persons were present. ]Jr Somerville stated that at the last meeting put of the 21 persons who had expressed their desire to become Christians, 16 had found consolation. Tha choir then sang the verses o£ the bea'ttitul hymn, "Almost Persuaded." Dr Someryille called upon all persons who wished to become Christians to stand up. Seventeen of the audience responded, and they were prayed for by a number of Christians amongst the audience, who also stood up. Dr Somerville then addressed the would-be Christians, and. prayer was again offered. Another meeting was held at the close, when only the 17 penitents and a number of Christian workers were present.

Opinion in Christchurch is strongly adverse to the action of the selection com mittee in determining to play fifteen only against the Australians. C. Frith has not yet recovered from his accident in Auck land, and it is doubtful whether he can play. Sweete is likewise absent. No doubt is felt that the Australians will win easily. The sites for three booths on the ground realised £124. There are no tickets required to admit a lady or lady and gentleman to the dress circle at Dr Somerville's services. A lady will be admitted by herself, but gentlemen cannot get admission except accompanying a lady. This is to correct an error that seems to be abroad that passes are required. Before the New Year holidays set in kind husbands are reminded they should treat their wives as well as them* selves to some new Clothes. A nice new Dress and Hat for the wife, and Clothing for children and self can be obtained at a very small cost at the City Hall ARCADE. You will find this is the right Establishment in which to lay out your cash.

A mixed fuel of coal and coke is invaluable for the ordinary purposes of heating, and still more for those cooking and raising steam, as it absorbs .he smoke or inflammable gases given off by coal during combustion, and renders the fire brighter,clearer, and hotter. This is much more apparent Avhere our local coals are used; indeed, owing to the rapidity of burning, some of these threaten to go out of consumption altogether. Coke supplies exactly that which these coals lack—body and resistance. Every householder should buy coals and coke at the same time, and, if convenient, mix them ; smaller bills and greater satisfaction will be the result The price of coke is advertised elsewhere— [A DVT.]
