PETENGALE'S ESTATE.

[To the Editor.] " For the cause that Jacks as-istance. For the wrong that needs resistance." Sir _lthi"kthat ail right-minded men will sup port Mr R. J. «eltua in exposing the mystic circumstances of Petei. sale's estate. Itsaems to me that the estate has been thoroughly mis managed—by whom it is not for me to any ; but the report of the Parliament of New Zealand shows clearly that Mr Jfeltui has fallen a victim to keener men. I, for one, will subscribe my mite to fight his ri^ht to its bitter end. I appeal to the Hon. J. Sheehan, Minister of Justice, to see one of th<i sons of old colonists get his right. From what I had known personally of Mr Fetus, and what I am led to understand from others, his brains, and his purse—when ho had it —were always open to assist the poor and oppressed, I am of opinion tnat if the gentle man in question should take it into his head to a tale unfold, he could enlighten and let the light of day into the dark recesses of many chambers.—Yours. Sec, Jus-hob.

THE SHOW.

(To the Editor of the Star.)

Sib.—l listened with, much pleasure to the various speeches made at the Show dinner ; many of the remarks made on that festive oc casion were full of interest and instruction, whilst other 3 were, to my udad, auiusang in the extreme. One gentleman gravely proposed that the outlying settlers should give up their local shows, and bestow all their support on the Auckland one. The following facis will, I think, ba sufficient to prove to the public that the speaker had anything but an exalted opinion of the intelligence of the stud country settlers :—At Cambridge Sho w.heldafe w weeksago. there were gentlemen from the different provinces nidging btock, than whom better or more experienced judges cannot be found in the colony; and, even to the non-successful competitors, their awards gave garieral satisfaction. At Aucklaud, 021 the other hand, most of the judges had their reputation to make (some of them, by the way, made but a poor commencement), and their awards gave widely-expressed dissatisfaction. I repeat, sir, that with these facts before them, the public must view the proposed abolition of country thows as au absurdity. One of the cattle judges (?) said " any mistakes came from the heart, not the head;" and if all stories are true, he was not far wrong. In any case, the fact remains that exhibitors from the couutry will not bring their btock to Auckland next year unless they have some guarantee that com petent and impartial judges will be appointed, —lam, &c, Onlookek.

.[Mr John Wallace, in his remarks, specially excepted Cambridge from the districts which should give up their periodical shows.—BlD. HL&]

THEATRE ROYAL.

"LEAH, THE FORSAKEN."

The original Bateinan version of this great pathetic play was produced at the Theatre Royal last evening before a large audience. Thej character of Leab. the outcast, was im personated, for the 329 th time, by Mrs George Darrell. Her representation of the Jewish ■maiden was remarkably good, and won golden opinions from the audience. The curse scene, which is so often "murdered" by "stars of lesser magnitude," was magnificently pour tray ed; and the curse pronounced with grand and terrible effect. Mr3 Darrell possesses all the qualities necessary for ihe impersonation of Leah, and in her hands, therefore, it could not fail to bea great success. She was repeatedly ca'led before the curtain to receive the enthusiastic applause of the audience. Mr George Darrell appeared to great advantage in the character of Rudolph, and Mrs Walter Hill was very successful as Anna. TO-NIGHT.—"MAN AND WIFE." Wilkie Collin3' great specialty of man and wife is announced for presentation this evening, with Mrs Darrell in her original character of Annie Sylvester. The drama is a highly sensa tional one, and is possessed of much merit. Mr George Darrell will appear as Geoffrey Dela mayn, Mrs W. Hill as Hester Dethridge, and Mr J. B. Sfceele as Arnold Brinkworth. New and attractive scenery has been prepared in order to make the production a success. No doubt there will be a large attendance on this occasion. "Masks and Faces" is to be played on Tuesday evening.

MINING.

The mine manager of the Congress G.M.Co. reports: The Eureka Company have struck good gold on'or about 30 feet off our boundary. The show is a good one, equal to the Cor by at the first. The leader is running direct into our ground, and close to our present tunnel. We are sinking on the boundary, and expect to have the leader on hand in the course of eight or ten days. The Manager of the Bright Smile reports: —We are driving in the main level. There is a very good-looking leader in the face with plenty of mineral. 1 expect shortly to get some very rich gold, the ground looks well, and the gold prospects could not be better.

The first of the Rifle Association's prize filing is taking place to-day. The body of L"(T is not recovered, it is thought it was swept out to sea.

ASHBURTON, this day. THE AGRICULTURAL SHOW. The first show of the Ashburton Agricul-. tural and Pastoral Association is being held. Yesterday there were 208 entries.

During the forenoon the weather was terrific, with fierce hot winds and impenetrable thick clouds of dust.

THE PRIZE FOR TWINE.

(To the Editor.)

Sib.—Will you please lend your assistance in rectifying an error that occurred at the late Show, whereby a Mr Matthews got the credit of my manufactures, and so secured first prize. The inferior hanks which were stated as belong ing to m"c were the production of Mr Matthews. —I am, &c, A. Thunder, twine-maker.

ELLERSLIE CARRIAGE DRIVE.

It was stated some time ago that Mr Robert Graham was about to lay out a road at the back of the Ellerslie Hotel, leading threugh a portion of his estate at Remuera, so as to form a splendid carriage drive. We understand, however, that he has now so planned the carriage drive as to run right through the Ellerslie Gardens to the grand-stand, on the race-course opening up the Onehunga road via the Harp of Erin, and running through the race-course and gardens. This road, when completed, will be a great con venience to sportsmen ; and, forming a picturesque and easy drive, will probably be much used in fine weather. It has been proposed to call it the " The Ladies' Mile." The alteration will also render many valu able building sites available, which will doubtless be in demand. Altogether the proposal is one that reflects much credit on Mr. Graham's forethought and enterprise.

TEACHERS' ASSOCIATION.

The inaugural meeting of the Auckland School Teachers' Association was held this afternoon in City East school-room, and was largely attended. The inaugural ad dress delivered by Mr Worthington was excellent and practical in detail, and worthy of the cause of its advocacy. In the course of the address, the reader observed : "Of the necessity of a Teachers' Association I presume we all agree, or we would not be here this day. We, the teachers of this, provincial district, band ourselves together, not for the purpose of aggression, not even for defence, but in brotherly love and union ; because we are all members of a high and honorable profession, requiring mutual co operation and support." He proceeded to say that the Teachers' Association was in some sense a Republic, where, indeed, may be realised the ideal of a great nation, namely: Liberty, Equality, Fraternity; liberty of thought, speech, and action, bounded only by the higher dictates of a generous self-abnegation equality, which recognises the good of the whole rather than that of the individual ; the fraternity of a community united by the sympathies of a common aim, common duties, ami a common reward. The address referred to the capital library of the teachers, of which many largely availed themselves, especially the younger teachers. A vote of thanks was proposed by Mr Johnson, seconded by Mr Grant, and carried unanimously ; thanking Mr Worthington foi* his address.

The following gentlemen were then elected on the Committee;—Mr Sinclair, as secretary; Messrs Worthington, Coburn, Harrison, Bailey, Grant, Brabazon, Smith, Edwards, Stephens, Martin (James), French, and Johnson. The discussion of the rules was proceed ing as our reporter left.

SYMPATHY WITH CAPT. ANDREWS.

[Bir Telegraph.]

(From our own Correspondent.)* DUNEDIN, this day. A ■ local journal says:—There is a good deal of sympathy with Captain Andrew and his chief officer. The interests in volved are too gserious to leave any room for indulgence of personal feelings, and public opinion will endorse the verdict of the Court. Too much is sacrificed to qucik passages with the tacit sanction, and even encouragement of public. The way is being prepared for something before which the colony will some morning stand aghast. This high-pressure system is at fault, and so long as the shortest line between two points, even thoughit be fringed by breaker?, is demanded as a ship's proper course, peril will exist ; and it is but solely justice to fling a captain or a mate to the public now and then for them to worry him, when he has just by a hair's breadth passed the line which separates peril from this dubious path of safety."
