AUCKLAND INSTITUTE.

The members of this excellent Institute held their, usual monthly meeting last even ing in Princes-street, Mr Theophilus Heale in. the chair, who briefly introduced the business of the meeting. New Membek. —Mr D. Hean was unani mously elected a member. Valuable Donations. —The Chairman, having made some remurks upon the early history of the Institute, and the struggles of certain citizens to place it on a more satis factory and permanent business, said he had the pleaing duty of announcing to those pre sent that Mr Thomas Russell had caused to be transmitted to the Institute casts ol the finest gems of art of ancient Rome, the finest known to the world. Mr Heale then read a list of the works now on their way to Auck land, and which he hoped they would shortly see in the. Museum. Venus de Medici, Venus de Milo, Apollo Belvedere, Apollino, Laocoou, Discobalus (standing), Discobalus (throwing), Adorns, Oermauicus, Demosthenes, Plyphynmea, Euterpe, Young Bacchus, Antimous, Diana a la Biche, Gladiator (fighting), Gladiator (dying), Fawn (dancing), Ineseus, Hisses, Gariymedes, Supplicant Youth, Busts: Cresar, Juno, Homer, Socrates, Seneca, Ajax, Plato, Augustus, Clytie, Jupiter, Ariadne. The chairman added that on the former occasion, when Mr Gillies informed me that he would make us a present of £500, that announcement brought corres ponding munificent gifts of the like nature from others of our fellow-citizens. Already this gift of Mi Thomas Russell has had. just the same effect. Mr Russell's com munication was addressed to Dr' Campbell, and it occurred to him that these works would require some expense for their suit able erection. They would require pedestals, for instance, and he has offered to undertake the whole extent of placing them, without any cost whatever to the Institute. Mr Heale then lead a letter from Dr. Campbell respecting these magnificent presents, in which he said: "It has occured to me that the council of the Institute might favourably consider the proposal I now beg to submit—one which will meanwhile, I venture to hope, meet the requirements of those who are desirous of prosecuting art studies until a regular school of design shall have been called into existence. I would suggest that the council sanctions the free admission of all those who wish to draw from the Russell presen tation, and that permission be allowed to occupy such necessary space as may be re quired by the copyists. To secure to the youth of both sexes who may develop a taste for drawing, that guidence and instruc tion which is necessary at the hands of a master, I shall take upon myself the obli gation to provide one who shall give his services gratuitously to those who choose to avail of them, and under whose supervision all necessary regulations shall be carried out. As the incentive to many youthful students to prosecute their predilection for art is the knowledge that they can do so free of expense to themselves and un trammelled as to particular hours —the feel ing that they can take their portfolio and go to work at any time they have leisure and the spirit moves them, —I propose to place at the disposol of the . in structor for free distribution to the students when at work before the models such mater ials as are considered necessary. jThe long period during which the Museum is daily open, affords uuusual opportunity to the student of utilising a spare hour. It is my intention, if the Council falls in with my ■ proposal as now sketched, to place at the disposal of students, through the instructor a small collection of casts of minor sub jects, which will fiittiugly supplement the grand and imposing display of life sized statues which Avill shortly, through Mr Russell's liberality, render the hall of the Institute in itself a school of art." Mr Firth moved the following resolution : — "That the thanks of the members of the Institute be presented to Thomas Russell Esq., C.M.G, and Dr. Campbell, forthefr munificent and most appropriate donations ; of casts irom the gems of antique sculpture, propbsod to be presented by the former, and the generous and thoughtful appliances proposed to be provided by the latter, for utilising the gift to the public, and making it available for educational purposes." The motion was unanimously carried. Papers.—A paper written by Captain Brown, on the "Dascillidaj," was read; also a paper by the secretary, Mr Cheese man, on "Juncus Tennis," found in the Northern Wairoa. and a capital paper by Mr Adams on "High School for Girls." The discussion of these essays was post poned, owing to the lateness of the hour. Mr Wilson's paper on "The Rising Generation" was postponed for the same reason.

"THE SCHOOL MASTER ABROAD."

(TO-THE EDITOR:) SrK,—At public meetings it is a great point gained (even at the expense of a little trickery) to put into the chair a partisan, one all the better if he is not much troubled by conditions of 'selfrespect, but has cunning enough to know that sticks and heavy nailed shoes, vigorously applied to the floor, are flrst-rate settlers of any debateable matters, such have the usual results, or carried on the voices, "of who ?" Non-bur sesses, non - ratepayers, and of fun - seekers. Splendid new edition of economy, exemplified hi its native nudity. Sir, I have been particularly struck with the vehemence which is displayed by a person who has been summoned for not paying his rates, or has been compelled by the Inspector of Nuisances to be cleanly about his place. Some also avail themselves of the oppor tunity for letting off a squib of spite, because they cannot, will not, or do not know what is a fair day's work for a fair day's >pay. As a large employer of labour that fact frequently occurs, and the malignant disposition is invariably dis played at every opportunity they can seize on. Now Sir, who is to blame? Certainly not those who believing that they are doing the correct thing, do it, with all then- might, both by night as well as by day. The blame rests on those who use them as tools for then- own ends.— I am, &c—J. B. Strange.

A private letter has been received by Mr Bent (Minstrels) from Mr R. W. Kohler, whose name will be familiar to^ many, as connected with various entertainments in the musical line. Mr Kohler has now introduced a decided of instrumen tation, the cornet-a-piston, which he terms the last great musical wonder, or " Kohler's Ocarina." Mr Kohler describes the new invention as one of the most -wonderful wind instruments he ever saw; the tone is oeautiful, and he can play any quick tunes on it. .
