ADDRESS TO MR ANDERSON, CITY SU VEYOR.

t«f following address to Mr Anderson, City «irvevor signed by 330 ratepayers, i 3 advertised iA*M* ; morning's "Herald." It Avas presented t, a meeting held in the Thistle Hotel, on Tuesday last, Mr Keane presiding. The matter i« referred to in our leading columns :— near Sir.—We, the undersigned Ratepayers of thp City of Auckland, having made ourselves nrmiainted through the public Press with the charges made against you by Mr Councillor Dickson, in your professional, capacity, desire io pvnress our approval of the decision arrived at by the City Council on May 17, disposing of the ° We consider you have replied to the various accusations in a fair and straightforward manner; and we cannot help believing that, from the exaggerated language used by Mr Dickson, he showed a stronger personal animus to yourself than a regard for the public good,— mere abusive assertions in reference to public servants being insufficient to satisfy the Rate- AYe liope the City Council will long enjoy the benefit of your services, feeling assured that you have done good in the past and will con tinue to do so in the future.

Serious Accident at Helensville.

A VERY serious accident occurred at Helens- A'ille yesterday morning to a carpenter named John Thoburn, in the the employ of Mr Cameron, contractor for laying on water to the station there. He Avas engaged about 10 o'clock in felling a puriri tree, from ■which he intended to make some house blocks, AA-hen it fIeAV out, and struck him a severe bIoAV on the thigh, fracturing his thigh bone in tAvo places. Dr Stewart attended the injured man, and desired to set the bone, but this he would not allow, preferring to come on to Auckland. The fractures on the thigh were very serious, one being just beneath the trunk and the other above the knee. Dr. Stewart accordingly made arrangements for his removal to Auckland, and he was brought down by the Lilly this morning, under the charge of Constable Naughton. At his own request Thoburn was conveyed to the hospital in Mr BroAvn's van, brit it is not likely that it Avill be possible to set the bone for several days, as the flesh has swollen to a considerable extent, and it will be necessary to reduce it by hot fomenta tions before this can be done. Thoburn is a • married man, and his Avife resides at Parnell. He is also a member of the Pioneer Lodge, N.1.0.0.P., and a number of the members of this Lodge, besides the surgeon (Dr. Bayntun), Avere waiting on the wharf to receive him, and sec to his com fort. The accident Avill have the effect of incapacitating Thoburn from business for some time to come, if not of rendering his leg useless altogether

THE LATE FATAL ACCIDENT.— FURTHER PARTICULARS.

In consequence of a report having reached Mr Sub-inspector Pardy that marks of violence had been observed on the body of the unfortunate man who was found dead on the Great South Road, Sergeant Greene was instructed to proceed to the Harp of Erin and examine the body. It appears from the information which ha 3 been communicated to the police that the name of deceased is not Burrows, as was at first reported, but Frederick Augustus George Arburrows. The only mark of violence found on the body was a discolouration of the skin about the waist and the small of the back, but it is thought that such discolouration might appear after death where there had been no actual injury duriug l'fe. There are no abrasions of the skin observable.

A. young man named Mossman, the son of a farmer residing near the Great South Road, states that he passed the deceased between the spot at which the latter was afterwards found dead and the Harp of Erin Hotel. Mossman was driving in the direction of Auckland a horse attached to a spring cart, and as it was dark, had lights on the vehicle. Arborrows was coming from the opposite direc tion, and going towards Otahuhu, but the deceased kept so close to his left side that Mossman had to pass on the wrong side of the road, and afterwards strongly re monstrated with Arburrows for not keeping more to his offside. Mrs Thorpe states that she saw the lights on Mossman's cart, so that Arburrows must have seen it in the dis tance, and. the danger of collision was thus removed. Mr Mossman and Mr Schofield, station clerk at Penrose, are im portant witnesses at the inquest, which is proceeding as we go to- press. Sergeant Greene is of opinion that the discolouration of the skin would not have been perceptible immediately after death.

CAMBPJDGE,

NATIVE LAND COURT.

At the sitting of the Court yesterday some 400 natives were present, and the utmost regularity prevailed, the various hapus having appointed special constables to keep order. Mr Williams applied to the Court to define the interests of 27 owners of the Mangawhero Block, which he had purchased. The Court awarded Mr Williams 5,223 out of the 6,18S acres, the remainder being awarded to the five other owners. The claimants to the Mauuga karetu Block applied to have the cases postponed, as they intend to claim separate blocks as surveyed. There was much contention between the Ngatiteoro, Nga terangi, and Ngatiwhaki as to the owner ship of the Hungahunga Block. 1229 acres, in the Te Aroha district. One gratifying feature of the meeting was the presence of Te Ngakau, TaAvhiao's Secretary and alter ego who thus for the first time^acknowledged the. jurisdiction of the Court. On previous occasions he has persistently ignored the Land Court, and refused to urge his claims. Owing to his absence at a former sitting his claim to certain lands, a portion of the Horahora Block and others was not pre ferred, and Te Ngakau now contends that his land was illegally awarded to only part owners. Yesterday, Te Ngakau addressed the Court at considerable length, and his speech shewed much ability. The Court is doing efficient work.

TIMARU,

BAIL AND LEG-BAIL.

Through the police not having first ob tained a warrant they failed to arrest Blythe, the commercial traveller at Dunedin, out on bail and awaiting trial, charged with embezzling monies belonging to the Albion Brewery Company. The police traced the absconder to the barquentine Annie Bow, getting ready to sail for Sydney. Before the boat reached the vessel, the absconder spied them, and took, flight to another boat, the Mendoza. On the arrival of the police officers on board that vessel, Blythe went down into the cabin, and did not come up again. One policeman went down, but was assaulted by Blythe and the crew, the latter wanting him to shew his warrant for the arrest. Shortly afterwards another boat with private people came off, and the police called on them in the Queen's name to assist. They refused, aud eventually the police returned ashore to get a paper Avar .rant to arrest Blythe, but before it could be obtained the vessel sailed for Sydney with the absconder aboard.

At the Temuka Police Court, Richard Bell, farmer, Geraldine, charged with sheep stealing, was committed to take his trial at the next sitting of the Supreme Court at Timaru.

THE LICENSED VICTUALLERS ASSOCIATION.

THE LICENSING QUESTION.

A special meeting of the Licensed Victuallers Association was held this after noon—Mr Keane, President, in the chair. Six members were present. The President said the meeting had been convened to consider the question of the further granting of licenses in Auckland. The general opinion of the Bench hud been that hotels were too numerous in Auckland, and on the strength of that, hotel-keepers had been induced to invest large _ sums. There was now an application pending for a license at the comer of Queen and Victoria-streets East, and it would he for the meeting to consider the question. Mr Rose presumed that Mr Keane had called this meeting ou his own mere notion and opinion withoutjjconsulting anyone. The chairman said the remark was out of order. .'-,'._ Mr Rose said he did not jbelieve that he was out of order. The President said he would be happy to receive any proposal, but he would object to personalities. _ Mr Campbell asked if the meeting had been j convened in accordance with the rules.« • ' • The President said the meeting had been called bn the requisition of four members, and it was for-the members to consider whether or not they would take actiou. Mr Mann said it was a question whether a man shoHld be put to large expense in

i fitting up a house, and then be liable to opposition being set up next door to him. They did not knoAv Avho might be next affected. There Avas no guarantee under the existing system that a man's property Avould not be sacrificed at any moment. ' He hoped the meeting Avould seriously and impartially discuss the question. After considerable discussion a motion moved by Mr Humphrey and seconded by Mr Hill Avas carried by C to 4, to the effect that the matter be left in the hands of the Licensing Bench, and that the Association take no steps. .

LIBERTY AND LIBERALITY-TRUE AND FALSE.

(To the Editor of tho STA".) Siß,—lam sorry that Mr Tyerman's letter did not appear soon enough for mo to reply, previous to his leaving for San Francisco. 1 whould have liked to say to him that I feel in no respect hurt by his letter, and that if the address I heard had been as harmless, 1 should not have declined to take the chair for him. ' But, when I heard him describe Christians generally as "sneaking into Heaven with blood-stained certiiicntea got from Jesus," and seeming to chuckle over the Idea of their "disappointment in finding no Jesus' bosom to repose on in Heaven," &0., I do not think that any person in Auckland, whoso opinion I need care about, will think me illiberal in not chooSing to be associated with any such treatment of. sacred matters. What Mr Tyerman is pleased to say about my doorine or teaching I can safely leave with those who are well able to form a judgment, as I shall not now do what I have so many times refused to do—become my own vindicator ; if my life and teaching need defending, they will not get it from me. But I should have liked to say to Mr T., that to influence 50 or 60, or 5 or 6, aye, even one mind towards a realisation of the power of ti-uth, is an immeasurably grander thing than to tickle tho sensibilities of as many thousands with rude jokes, and so win their meaningless applause. ... . .. ~, The reason of my now writing is that there ' arc ono or two points on which I should wish to remove any misunderstanding. Mr Tyorman says that others say that I sometimes ridicule opinions that I do not hold in religion, thou-.h, as he says, it may be unconsciously. There may bo some difference of opinion as to where ridicule begins and ends; bnt if I ever speak so as to bring anyone's sacred convictions into con tempt, I as utterly condemn it in myself as in Mr Tyerman. I imagine nearly all depends on the amount, the spirit, and the circumstances o? the ridicule Appropriately to shew the absurdty of that which is absurd is quite legiti mate. In commenting on Mr C. Bright's Frccthought Lectures some months back. I contended, and do again now. that prejudice and passion are ever greater hindrances than despotic authority to true freedom of thought. Nothing more stimulates these self-enslaving influences than ridicule at the cxponse of seriousness, which may account for thousands of lectures Mr Tyerman speaks of, since nothing is easier than to satisfy and please the thousands by a liberal appeal to the lowest parts of their nature. But in tho turmoil of feelings inevitably aroused by holding religion up to scorn, all that calmness, essential to an evenly balanced judgment, is swept clean away and to talk then of freedom of thought is en tirely to mistake what thinking means, and offer an insult both to the dignity of man and the nobleness of true life. By all means, let us have a free platform, which I will never cease, in my little measure, to maintain and defend. But I caunot forget that there are indefinable elements of goodness and purity, refinement and manly generosity, which do far more (being far more essential) to guard the stability of such a platform than any coarseness or rude ness can do to justify its existence Ho who knowingly off nd 9 against these higher laws is no friend to the progress of humanity, for tho sake of which alone is it worth while to maintain any sortof freedom. He who means by freedom a throwing off of the restraints of duty, especially duty imposed by the laws of our moral and spiritual nature, has assuredly mistaken for freedom a very undesirable licentiousness.— I am. &c, • „ - * „ SAMUEI- Edgkb.

DICKSON AND ANDERSON INQUIRY.

(To the Editor of the Star.)

Sir j I was very much surprised at the action of certain ratepayers signing an ad dress of sympathy to Mr Anderson, because a majority of one in the Council (tor I believed it was by 5 to 4 that it was carried) decided that the explanation he gave to the charges of Councillor Dickson were satisfactory. The majority being, to a large extent, composed of men whu Jmay justly be called the drones in the Council; some through ignorance of the localities, and others from want of interest in the ratepayers welfare, have never been upon the works complained of. If these kind of addresses are to be given to officers, when their conduct is criticised by the Council, we shall very soon find the Council going back to its eld condition, when the Mayor could say the Town Clerk and me are the Council.—A. Black.

THEATRE ROYAL.

Production of " Miss Multon."

The French adaptation of "Bast Ly.me," a drama called " Miss Multon," was produced at the theatre last night to a poor house. The play commences from the time the mother accepts the position of governess, :-r.d returns to the care of her children under the eye of her rival, and their stepmother. It is deeply inter esting, and affords great opportunities for emotional acting of the highest class. The situations are not, however, very striking, and the story might be compressed with advantage into three acts. Miss Firmin played the heroine i really grandly, in fact, we have never seen her to greater advantage. She was called before the curtain after every act, and applauded to the echo. Mr Jack, as the bluff English Doctor, had not much to do, but, as usual, forced a small part into prominence by fine acting. Mr Steele was the iniured husband, Maurice de J a Tour, and Mrs Hill his second wife. Both parts were satisfactorily pourtrayed. Miss May and a young "shaver," named Roberts, played the two children naturally. " Miss Multon " will bo repeated to-night.

A mixed fuel of coal aud coke is invaluable for the ordinary purposes of heating, and still more for those of cooking and raising steam, as it absorbs the smoke or inflammable gases given off by coal during combustion, and renders the tire brighter, clearer, and hotter. Every house holder should buy coals and coke at the same time, and, if convenient, mix them ; smaller bills and satisfaction will be the result.
