house, and took giddy and stumbled agains Mrs James saw his elbow go through the pane, but could not say whether or not it was wilfully done. His Worship said that the evidence r not show that it was a wilful and in all* £s act- and on prisoner's agreeing to p&- 01 the damage,1 the charge was withdraw a. A WINTER BLANKET. Frederick Willis was brought v L a charge of stealing a blanket on the 20th inst., the property of Alexander Drum mond, of Chancery Lane. Prisoner pleaded not guilty. Ue brought the blanket from the Waikato, it was a friends present. ~,.,.. Annie Burtenshaw deposed that sf . was step daughter to Mr Drummond, and was at present keeping his house. The prisoner had been a lodger, and on the night in question he went to the room for his trousers and shirt, and enclosed the blanket in his swag (blanket produced). She could swear that the blanket was the property of Drummond. The blanket, a coloured one, and full of holes, was held up to the gaze of the Court, and caused much laughter ; it was a mere rag. His Worship said if prisoner was punished he should be punished for not taking a better blanket.- Alexander Drummond was sworn, and deposed to buying the blanket of a Scotch pedlar twenty years ago; ho could not however, swear positively to the blanket, as he was not in the habit of making the beds. Constable MeGilp arrested, prisoner on the charge in the Auckland Hotel; he said he got the blanket from a friend at Pokeno. Prisoner : Yes, that is quite right, the blanket was given lo me by my friend, Patrick Fitzpatrick. His Worship said the evidence was in sufficient for a conviction, and the prisoner must be discharged. Mrs Burthenshaw,(in a loud 'voice) : And is Fred to stick to the blanket ? Sergeant Mulville put a consolatary hand upon her shoulder, and promised to see about it. Prisoner caught up the blanket with an air of triumph, and rushed out of the Court, and along High-street as fast ss he could. Mrs Burthenshaw heaved a long sigh, and Mr Drummond burst into a ringing laugh, in -which he was joined by Constable Mc- Gilp. - LUNACY. Himore Taura, a native, was charged with lunacy, and on the testimony of two medical gentlemen was committed to the Asylum. This was all the business.

CENTRAL RAILWAY STATION.

(To the Editor of the EVENING STAE.) Sib.—Permit me to suggest that a monthly public meeting be called, and an expression of opinion taken upon the site proper for a railway passenger terminus. This would keep the committee and sub-committee close up to what the people require, I submit this is anroper question. Such meeting should be held in [the evening, that all who are entitled to vote may have the opportunity. A friend of mine says the best route for the line would be: (Palmer's map) turn off at 8, Portland-street, foot of Parnell, running between the strand and Alten Road, passing under Waterloo Quadrant, close _by the Supreme Court, thence to Victoria-street East. This makes a very easy way.— Chaeles Atkin.

SUBURBAN RESIDENTS WAKE UP. (Per favour of Evening Stab.) Parnell and Ponsonby wake up. Remuera also attend. Monie'd men and millers want all they can get round them in Lower Queen-street. The railway terminus for all practicable purposes is in the right place. The travelling public want the accommodation, therefore, get a tramway from College Road,. Ponsonby, to Constitu tion Hill, Parnell, up Queen-street to the Market, 3d fare. It will answer two pur poses, enable you to reach the centre of the city and railway station at a low charge. Eventually the tramway will travel west to the Watchman, and east to Orakei, all round the sea shore, making all property more valuable.—Corns and Tender Feet.

Anglo-Australian Cricket and Rowing Notes.

(BY TELEGRAPH)

[FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT],

BUNEDIN, this day. AUSTRALIAN papers to hand shew that in the Surrey match, Midwinter scored 32 in the first and 15 in the second innings, or seven less than Shuter. In the ESland match the total scores were : Australians, 90 and 85; Elland, 25 and 70. On the 7th inst. telegrams weie received in Aus tralia from London, intimating that the Australians will play a return match with Marylebone on July 22nd, and with Nottingham County on August sth. Privately, Trickett has received no definite information of jiHiggins' intentions. He argues that as Higgins is the best man in England, he will prove a most formidable opponent. His hand is still bad, although the wound caused by removing the ]omt of the third finger of his left hand is healing well. Until it is perfectly healed and becomes strong, he thinks it would be unfair for anyone to challenge him to pull. Even when he has recovered the effect ol his injury, it is a question whether his rowing power will not be interfered with to some extent. He does not think the chance of success to be marred by his accident, sarious though it has been. He is very solicitous about the interests ot nis friends, and his principle desire appears to be to do honour to his country and justice to his backers. If Hiagins decides to come here at once, it will probably be five months before,'he can train and pull a match with Trickett. By that time Trickett s hand may be well; but, ii it should not be, he ■will not pull, whatever the consequences may be; for he dislikes accepting the chances of a failure.

NAPIER, this day. THE HERETAUNGA BUSINESS. _ The "Telegraph " says the last move in Maori litigation has been to register against the entire Heretaunga block including all sections in the township of Hastings. Ine memorials are by Karaitiana, Takamoana, and Waka Kawatina, against Gordon and others. We don't know the exact nature of the suits, but if they cannot attect purchasers for the value without a notice of irregularity attending the original sale, tne plaintiffs may possibly have exposed them selves to actions for damages by each of the Hastings purchasers.

TE AWAMUTU, this day. MR WHITAKER'S CANDIDATURE. There was a good attendance, in spite of thedownTanoffam.atMrß A. Whtaker's meeting with the electors last night.

Mr Oliver was questioned very hard last night, re the Proudfoot prosecution. He does not blame the Govarnnient for with drawing the prosecution, but says he would vote in favour of the trial of criminal cases being relegated to common juries only, as receut trials in Dupedin had not increased his confidence in the even-handed justice of special juries.

COROMANDEL, this clay. TOKATEA. —The manager's report dated June 21st to the directors, says : —ln the van level there is a great improvement in stope from No. 2 winze which has shown a little gold at every breaking-down for the week ; the country is getting a little easier along the roof of stope, which looks better for the ground over head ; there is an improvement in stone here also. It is much more mineralised, and appears more like the old run of gold than any of the previous stopes. No. 4 has carried a nice looking lode for the week, which has shewn a little gold when breaking down on several occasions. This stope will be in the required distance this week. I shall be commencing another stope on Saturday or Monday. I have 20 pounds of specimens from Fenton's tribute this week, which makes 56 pounds in company's box from there. Mr Geo.

Mr Warren, lately in charge for the Borough Council, bought them, giving £570, being an increase of £200 over last year.

WELLINGTON, this day. THE CHANCES OF DISSOLUTION

It is not the intention of the Government to ask tor a dissolution at the end of next session if they have a good working majority. Their argument is that it would be unconstitutional to put the country to the expense of a general election, unless the Government could not work easily, until the natural term ot the life of Parlia ment has expired ; consequently the re-dis tribution of the Representation Bill will not be introduced, but will be held ready framed, so that it may be brought iv should the Ministry feel any difficulty iv passing their main measures. If brought in and passed, and the House did not dissolve for two years, the representation would by that time be again very unequal ; so it will be held back until the eve of dissolution. DELAYED TELEGRAMS.

The system of delayed telegrams, about which! telegraphed to you some weeks ago, is now gazetted. The charge will be half the ordinary rates, telegrams beingdelivered by postmen at the ordinary delivery instead of by special messenger. A private telegram received here yester day from Hokitika states that Mr Seymour Thorne George has been well-received on the West Coast, and that his chances of success wear a very promising aspect, but that the Roman Catholic electors are going to poll to a man for Fitzgerald. PROPERTY AND INCOME TAX. The "Post" says certain journals favoru able to the present Ministry have thrown out some very strong hint 3 lately as to the desirability of including an income tax in the fixed programme of the Government for the coming session of Parliament ; and some of these have borne so much the aspect of attempts to feel the public pulse on this important question, that an impression has been gaining ground recently that they were inspired by the Government with this express object. We are assured, however, that an income tax does not form, and will not form any part of the Ministerial programme. The Government wiii be prepared to tax revenues of Joint Stock Companies, but that is regarded simply as a convenient and unobjectionable mode of levying what is m fact a property tax; such Companies justly bein" deemed to represent in a great measure so many reservoirs of the accumu lated wealth of the community. That a land tax will bo proposed and adopted by Parliament may be looked upon as practi cally certain. The precise form which the land tax will take is not yet finally decided, but in all probability it will bo imposed upon the actual market value of the land itself whether urban, suburban, or rural ; irrespective of its improvement by fencing, cultivation, or building. The reason for the adoption of this course is obvious. If landed property were taxed according to the extent to which it had been improved, such an impost miaht be regarded not unreason ably at a tax'upon industry, and as a die encouragement of improvement. By having a land tax on the natural or acquired value of the land itself—that is to say, en the price which it might be estimated to realise if sold without improvement—this draw back is escaped ; while at the same time it would pay its fair share according to the value it might have gained by surrounding improvements. Hence a land tax so regu lated would press much less heavily on the man who by improving his land adds to his rreneral wealth than on the wealthy absentee who allows his acres to lie idle, and who, by their increase in value from the improve ment of adjacent properties, reaps the benefit of his neighbours' industry.

UNDER WHICH KING?

(To the Editor of the Star.) Sir,—ln answer to " Under which King," I beg to inform "Querist" that the address in question is almost of a private nature. Not even German residents need sign unless the address is in accordance with their wish and taste. Only a few of the Germans in Auckland are naturalized; therefore, alone we had no other way of word ing the same. The Kngliah of the address is not a word for word translation. .And even if it were, whore is the harm 1 Naturalized or not, we feel ready at all times to do our duty to the land of our adoption. We simply wanted to prove to our relatives and people at home (for the Emperor may perhaps nover read our address) that we have emotions left in us, which at such episodes warm up for the country wo hsil ffroni and for a Sovereign under ' whoso reign, not alone our Fatherland reached fame worthy of it, but uuder which each of us re ceived an education and training to make a good citizen for any other country. Should ever, as suggested by " Querist,1' a war between Germany and Great Britain become a reality, ho ought to know that even were v/e void of all truo feelings to the land of our adoption, for our interest's sake alone, and also the new family ties which we have contracted, our loyalty must bo centred hero. To Germany bind us only the clearest recollections of the past. Finally, I only ask " Querist" hovy would ho havo worded an a-1 dress under similar circum stances to Her Gracious Majesty Queen Victoria, woro ho a resident of some other land 2 Or if ho came perchance from poor parentsin England, would ho, after becoming wealthy, over forget them or his native lands No, this would bo simply as ridiculous as his fear about our loyalty. —Yours, &c, H.B.

The Great Waitara Meeting.

[BY TELEGRAPH.]

(From our Special Correspondent.)

ARRIVAL OF SIR GEORGE GREY,

NEW PLYMOUTH, this day. The Hincmoa, bringing Sir George Grey and party for the Waitara meeting, arrived at 5 o'clock last evening. They left by special train for Waitara at 7 p.m. WAITARA, this afternoon. Sir George Grey with party arrived at Waitara last evening, but as yet no inter views have taken place between him and the natives. Everything is quiet here to day. Rewi, Te Whetere, Apia, and others are encamped in a whare on the north bank of the river, and receive visitors most cordially. Rewi is very reticent regarding the approaching meeting. He said there would be none on Monday, but if fine, probably the meeting would take place on Tuesday or Wednesday. Te Whetere asked your correspondent particularly regarding the number of natives ihat came with Sir George Grey from Wellington. They say about 200 are now in Waitara, but all have not yet come, many being still on their way. All here seem to be in good spirits, the inclement weather being the only drawback. The huts erected for the natives are not occupied by them. Tents have been sent for, and are daily expected. Waitara, 12.40 p.m. The s.s. Hauraki has just arrived. It was expected she would bring about 40 Waikato natives. A crowd of Europeans and Maoris met her at the wharf, when to no small disappointment it was found no natives were on board. Thereason for their non-arrival is not known. The morning train from New Plymouth brought in several visitors, most of whom, hearing that nothing was to be done to-day, returned to town.

(Per Press Agency.)

WAITARA, this day.

Sir George Grey, with Messrs Sheehan, Fisher, and staff arrived here at 7 p.m. yes terday by special train. The meeting will be poorly attended, not more than 300 natives being here at present ; the continu ation of wet weather being in a great meas ure prevcntative. The Government houses, built for the accommodation of the natives, are at present under water. Rewi remains at the pah on the east bank of the river, and is much annoyed at there being no proper accommodation for himself and followers. Terea Wanuaka strongly remonstrated with the civil conimissioa as to the suitabi lity of the present position, and suggested the advisability of building them on the bank of the river ; and had this been done all unpleasantness on this account would have been obviated. Every one is disap pointed, and there is a small attendance of natives. Forty tents have been telegraphed for, and are expected here by the noon train. A banqu is to be given to Sir George Grey on Monday. It has been raining for the last 24 hours, and a heavy storm is now breaking. THE MEEEING POSTPONED. The native meeting is postponed till Monday. Rewi has sent a congratulatory message to Sir Geo. Grey and the Hon. J. Sheehan, inviting them to a private inter view this afternoon.

MINING MEETINGS.

HaeboubView.—At the annual meeting of the above Company, held at Coromandel yesterday, Mr Woollams picsidiag, the following report was adopted : " The Directors have the honor to submit the following report and balance-sheet for the past year, euding May 31. The work carried on during the year was driving on the mullocky leader in the low level, and stopin" out on the same reef towards No. 4 level Fair prospects have been obtained, but no large patches struck, although from the promising nature of the ground ncii stone may be come upon at any moment. Over lewt. of picked stone was crushed sense time ago for a return of 220z., and the Mine Manager has 401bs. of specimens now in hand. Your Directors regret having to report the loss of between 50 and 60 tons of quarts through a landslip during the late Hoods." . ~ "A new level is being put in on the north-eastern boundary to cut McNeils leader, from which very good stone is beinc taken. The drive is now m over 60ft, and it is jjhoped another §30 feet will bring us to the leader, when it will be opened out upon and tested. It is also proposed to put in a drive to cut McLean's leader, from which <'ood prospects have been obtained. Your directors recommend that stopiug out on the mullocky leader be continued, as they have every reason to believe that they are in the immediate neighbourhood of a rich patch of gold. They also expect good results from the two new leaders now being prospected. AH the directors—namely, Messrs. F. Woollams, C. Ring, H. Brett, G. Harper, and W. Home—retire, but, being eligible, offer themselves for re election. Prom the balance-sheet we gather that the receipts for the year ending May 31st amounted to £536 16s, viz., calls, £732 17s; gold sold, £63 15s lid; tributes, £7 Is; cash balance from last year, £23 10s Id ; interest, rent of house, &c, £9 12s, The

expenditure! amounted to £899 11s 7d, which was incurred as follows, viz.: wages, £628 12s 6d ; lease, rent and manager's office, £74 10s lOd ; material, stone, &c, £195 83 3d. There was an overdraft of £62]557d.

The outgoing directors were re-elected.

Royal Oak.—Thetdirectors report, adopted at the annual meeting of the Royal Oak Company yesterday, was as follows :—" The directors again place before the sharaholders their ordinary annual report, accom panied by a statement of the Company's affairs made up for the year ending May 30th, 1878. During the early part of the year, 142 tons of quarts was obtained from the stopes in the upper workings, which yielded 2290Z5. 6dwts. I2grs. melted gold, value ,£6lB 16s 7d. As these stopes, however, neared the surface, the reef beame too poor to work, and had in consequence to be abandoned. In order to open up new blocks on the same reefs at a lower level, the No. 3 level has been pushed in with the utmost despatch; but, until an opening through to the upper workings be effected, and a current of air introduced, no works of any magnitnde can be accomplished. To complete this work, the directors have been compelled to make calls upon the shareholders; but they hope soon to be able to report more favourable prospects, gold having been seen by the manager in several parts of the reef while continujng the main drive. The appended report of the mining manager will give fuller details of the work done during the year, and the works for which there is immediate necessity. At this meeting, three of your directors retire from pffice-yviz., Messrs Buckland, Paterson, King—and, being eligible without notice, they offer themselves for re-election. You are also required to elect auditors for the current year.—F. Woolams, Chairman. From the balance-sheet we gather that the receipts for the year ending May 31st amounted to £1338 os 7d., viz:—Gold proceeds, £618 16s 76 ; calls, £715 los; interests, etc., 163 14s. The expenditure amounted to £2,221 3s Bd., of which wages and contract work absorbed £1376 19s iod. Bank overdraft from last statement, 8s 2d ; materials, surveys, groitnd rents, and miscellaneous, £551 3s; secretary's salary, etc., .£62 14s gd. Bank overdraft on May 31st, £883 3s id, The outgoing directors were re-elected.

We would remind our readers that the performance by Mr P. Doran's minstrels for the gbenefit of -widow Marlin. and orphans, will take place in the Theatre Royal this evening. The programme is a very attractive one, and should have the effect of drawing a good house. In addition to Mr Doran's troupe, Mr Angel, a gentleman of considerable local talent, a8 well as others, will give their services.
