General Stewart's Advance on Ghuzni.

LETTER FROM AN OFFICER.

CAPTAIN;jHUOH riSTE\VAET, of Katikati, has received a letter from Captain T. Vcrner ot the 62nd Begiment, 3rd Division of the KabuljField Force, an old friend of his, who is now engaged in active service iv Afghanistan. It describes the advance of Geueral Stewart's force sul sequent to the severe enjoyment at Ghuzui which has already been described inonr columns. Wo make the following extract: —We continued our march and two days after got into Ghuzni, which was given up without a struggle. The worst of the fight for us was after it, when we marched over the ground, where it happened many Ghazia, either wounded or pretended to be so, suddciuy started up und either fired at or cut at our luen, ot course these wretches had to be killed. I had a narrow escape from one old gentleman, but he was so badly wounded he could not shoot straight. A dozen women were found dead, some armed. They were killed by the shrapnel, which has no regard for sex. On our second day's halt lit Ghuzui we beard that some 5000 men were in two villages about 5 miles oil'wait ing to attack us going over the pass after Ghuzni, but old Stewart was determined to attack them, so two brigades under General Palliser went out at 3 a.m. on the 23rd. We got to the villages about 5,30, and began shelling them, which awoke our friends, and they began a hideous div of yelling and tom-toming. I was out as galloper to General Palliser. After shelling the villages for somo time it was agreed by Generals Palliser and Baxter that the loss of storming them would be too severe, so we retired to try and draw them out, but they would not come. General Stewart now came up with reinforcements aud we advanced again. I was with General Palliser with the cavalry and A-1j on tho right, then came the infantry in a long line of skirmishers, and on the left 94, and some horse cavalry. The mule battery was with tho skirmishers. We got on the flank of the right village, and after a little shelling the enemy bolted out in rear of their villages before the intautry could get up. We pursued them about 8 miles aud cut up.a good few. We had only two men killed and 17 wounded.- We killed about 500 of them. Their fire wa3 very bad as the bullets came in pretty thick at one time, but very seldom hit anyone. After this we went on peacably, and met General Koss some four days from Ghuzni. He had come out from Kabul and brought us supplies. General Stewart bade in farewell and went back with General Ross to Kabul to take command of the whole of northern Afghanistan. Wo turned to the right and came into tho Logar Valloy over a tremendously high and steep pass, where we had to make a road and let the guns down with ropes, which was successfully done. The Logar is a beautiful valloy full of fields and trees, and well-kept villages, with a river running through it, in which we caught no end of fish. We wandered about it. for some time, encamp 21bs.) McMaster (list. 21bs), and Cameron ing wherever we could get provisions. The Zermukts passed their nights pleasantly for some time firing into our camp 3, but never hit an anirral even. We heard their bullets going about and wondered where they went to; at last a piquet of the 60th made a dash out one night and killed 4 of them, since when the firing into camp is not followed up so keenly. We suddenly got orders to march to Kharasiab, 4 marches from where we were and 5 miles from Kabul; we stayed there 4 days,"and I twice rode into Cabul. I was at the Bala Hissar, and where the Resi dency was, Ayub Khan's palace, and General Daoud Shah's house, also where the great explosions took place. The city is larger than Kandahar, but not such good streets nor so clean, or rather a good deal dirtier. The shops are ibocter, and a great inducement to visit Kabul was that wo could get iced B and S, a thing wo had not tasted for months.

When wo left Kharasiab wo inarched back again to the Logar and are still there but in a different part of it. Our cavalry had a capital fight two days ago. Thoy camo across 1200 of the Zermukts, who used to fire into our camp, and chased them and cut up 200. -We had one officer badly wounded, and 5 men killed, and 25 wounded. We hear wo aro to be out of the country by October, and I am sure I hope so.

THE DEFEAT OF GENERAL BUR ROWS.-FURTHER PARTICULARS.

Respecting the disaster (o the force under General Burrow?, it was stated in a tele gram dated August 1, that it was reported from Kandahar that the main body of Ayub's troops crossed the Hclmand and were at Haidarabad on the east bank. fPartios of his cavalry were foraging about the conntry near our camp, 400 horaemen were met on the 22nd July by our cavalry reconnuissauce, aud forced to retreat. The IJritisU cavalry and were induced to follow the enemy's cavalry, and were thus led into an ambuscade. Ayub's army then a'tacked, and our troops suffered severely, the battle resulting in oar retirement on Kandahar, but Ayub's army also suffered much. The " Observer" says that "General I umroee must have with him in Kandahar some 8000 fi^htiug men, of whom perhaps uOOO are British. He is besieged by a force of many timea that number, with a lioide of sympathisers among the towns- People- The kind of inducement offered to tlio Herati radians was indicated in a message of the 2ml August:—" Ayub . Khan tells his troop* that the British have spout million of rupees in Kandahar, which, with all other property apd women, are at

their disposal ft rter they have driven out the English." It must be remembered, too, that between Ghuzni and Kabul there have been large gatherings of clansmen, under leaders more or less bent on giving trouble to the British ever since General Stewart passed on his victorious march northward. The most prominent political leader is Musa Khan, already referred to, but the chief General is Mahommed Jan, Yakub Khan's old leader, with his brother Asmatullah Khan. Co-operating more orjless with them are General Gholam Hyder (brother of Khoja Khan), Hashim and Padsha Khans, and then farther north is Mir Kutcba, the ruffianly rob ber who tried means of inactivity, slaughtered all his new relutionsasonexicans of occupy ing himself andjhis gang. Generals Hills, Baker, and Macphcrsou have inflicted punishment from time to time on some of these gatherings, but there can be no doubt that a very largo array of Ghazis and Ghilzais could be mustered around Ghnzni and marched to swell Ayub Khan's num bers. Wo surmise that this has been already done to somo extent under his nephew, Musa Khan.

A telegram from Allahabad on July 30 says:—"The catastropho to General Bur rows is over-rated. Nino officers arc safe ; seven others are seriously wounded ; three were killed. General Burrows' strength was 2,400 against 11,000. Two guno were lost."

Young Women's Institute.

A MOST interesting musical lecture was giveu last evening iv the large room of the Young Men's Christian Association in aid of the funds of the Young Women's Insti tute by Rev. Allen W. Webb, the mnsic and vocal illustrations by ladies who kindly volunteered their services. The subject of the lecture was " Frances Ridley Havergal : her Lite, her Poetry, aud her Songs." The room waa comfortably filled, mostly by ladies and young women of the Institute. Mr Webb commenced by remarking upon the deeds of brave-hearted and noble women who had been found in every walk of life, instancing Joan ot Arc and others who led armic3 or wielded the sceptre of power ; St. Theresa and St. Cecilia, eminent for the services which they rendered to religion by means of their pre-eminence in music ; St. Catherine of Bologna and Rosa Bonheur, distinguished by their proficiency in art; Madame Do Stael, George Eliot, Felicia Hcmans, Jfliza Cook, aud others whose honoured names were enshrined in history - and literature. The lecturer then pro ceeded to give a sketch of the brief lifu of Miss_ Havcrgal, whose father wa3 a man of musical culture aud a doctor of music in the University of Cambridge. Miss Haver gal eviuced a love for music and poetry at au early age, and iv 1850 she visited Ger many and the romantic valleys of Switzer land, where she won, by intense application, favourable and encouraging notices from German professors in the divine art. She studied Hebrew, and for a long time her favourite pursuit was to read the New Testament in the Greek language, in which she was assisted by her father. So perfect was she iv tho German language, that among her MSS. which she left be hind there were found twenty-four origi nal JiDglish and German poems. She also manifested the nicest philosophic discrimination in such poems as " Faith and Reason." As to her musical talent, she prepared the finest collection of ecclesias tical music extant. One of the most beautiful of the compositions, entitled "The Miuistry of Song," in which she advocated that the influence of song should be prac tically applied to secure some of the more important advantages deriv able from music of a high order. Miss Corbett then came forward and sang with exquisite taste and appreciative judg ment this beautiful composition, Miss Philson accompanying ou the pianoforte. Miss Havergal's musical progress was duly sketched, in connection with her active religious spirit and benevolent heart. Bee thoven and Mendelssohn attracted her rever ential attention, and her " musical vision " was described in her own poetical language. An exquisite chord appeared to strike upon her ears : this would undergo the most ex traordinary transmutations of tone and volume until at length her whole being would seem to be saturated with musical sounds. This was the account of a most extraordinary subjec tive condition, but the nariation was as extraordinary as the description itself, be cause a condition of great subjective tension is usually accompanied by feeble power of objective perception. Like Beethoven, Miss Havergal strove to divorce her mind from . everything low and worthless, and which was not in accordance with her elevated and sublime views and the purity of her life. She struggled and prayed to God for strength of will to foster her aspir ations after the ideally elevated and the beautiful in music and song, although her repose was fre quently troubled by tempting visions of happiness which could not be realised in her earthly sphere. Mis3,Philson then performed Beethoven's soul - thrilling " Moonlight Sonata," with powerful and pleasing effect, and Mr Webb recitdd Miss Havergal's poetic interpretation, both performances eliciting applause. Miss Havergal's reli gious impressions were minutely delineated to the period of her conversion, when she felt that Bhe possessed the blessing. Her " Songs of Grace and Slory," published in 1870, formed the choicest of her works, and they contained her spiritual experience, and were full of truth, grandeur of sentiment, and doctrinal treatment. Miss Hirst, at tbe request of the lecturer, sang "Be not we&ry," a sacred lyric of high merit, and which was given with peculiar sweetness and appreciation. Miss Havergal was described, not as a mere dreamer, but as aX active worker in the cause of Christianity, ns a true follower of Jesus, breathing through her beautiful human existence, the " Still, Sad Music of Humanity." A little book "All for Jesus," interested her greatly, and her song " From Glory unto Glory," was tbe rapt expression of a new religious exper ience. She believed in tho necessity and utility of honest labour. Her definition of true religion was trustful love in an all powerful Saviour, with a heart ready at all times for whatever work might seem to be demanded of her. Her labours among the Swiss peasantry, and among the poor in the little Welsh village where she spent her closing years, evidenced her innate desire to labour for the good of her kind. " Dis appointment" and her "Consecration Hymn," were rendered in their true spirit by Miss A. Maunsell ; and sub sequently, <; After," by Miss Hirst. Miss Maunsell also sang " When Thou Passest Through the Waters," one of the latest compositions of the poetess, the pathos of which was evidently appreciated by the apparently breathless auditory. The last hours of this gifted Christian melodist, who died May 28!h, 1879, was touchingly pictured by the lecturer, and with a general summary of her excellencies, and au exhortation to the young women to follow in Miss Havergal's footsteps, the lecture was brought to a close with the benediction.

A concert and dramatic entertaiument, i ■ aid of the City Band, is announced. The advertisement appears elsewhere.

Inter - Provincial Football Match.

AUCKLAND VERSUS WELLINGTON,

Although the ttoirj elapsing from the publication of the news that a Wellington Football Team was to visit Auckland until their arrival amongst us was rather short, it has proved sufficiently long for the diitiusion of a wide-spread iuterest in the expected contest. It haa been tho all absorbing topic of conversation for tho past week or ten days, and tho varying chances of tho respective teams have been canvassed and discussed with gradually deopeuing iuterest as the days sped rapidly away. The condition and capabilities of the visitors have been criti cised and contrasted with those of their local opponents, aud in fine, every little item of information bearing in tho remotest degree upon the kickists and their doings has been eagerly talked over aud commented upon. In tho public dining-rooms, at social gatherings, over the family tea-table, and across tho counter, tho common subject of paramount interest has been football. Tho peculiar terminology of the gamo him become familiarised even to the fair and luscious lips ot tho softer portion of humanity and tho singular skill of par ticular individuals at dribbling, passiug, lining up, punting, collaring, feuding, aud placo or drop kicking or their value in a scrimmage have . invari ably formed the prelude to a succession of fervent wishes for tho triumph of the local representatives. Tho fact is phat people of Auckland are possessed of an intense esprit do corps, and tho mnro an nouncement of an interprovincinl or inter civic contest is potent enough to arouse their feeling and engross their attention, no matter what the character of the projected struggle may be. The proof of this state ment has been afforded over aud oyor again. The strength of tho patriotic sentiment is a characteristic of tho place.

[Per " Star " Carrier Pkjkon.]

The weather is nil that could bo desired, It is simply magnificent. The sun shines out brightly from a nky dappled with n few light cloudlets, whilo the fervency of hia beams is pleasantly tempered by n refroniiing brcczo from the South-west. Tho ground is in admirable condition, while the moat effective means have been taken- to obtain fjr tho spectators an Uninterrupted view of the scene of combat, and at the same time to guard agaiust a possible intrusion within its precincts. Tho grouud measures 110 by 75yds., and its limits are indicated by flag-posts, while a stout rope extends around it a uniform distance beyond tho boundaries. Tho attendance of the public is fully com mensurate with the degree of interest which has been evinced in tho match during tho week, all Classen of the community being well represented. The ladies are conspicuous by their pre sence. The Engiueor and City Band, under the leadership of Mr Impey, is discoursing appropriate music, and everything wears a gala appearance. The arrangements for the match are known and seem to give mucb satisfaction. The touch and goal lines are marked in white, and are therefore easily discernible, while tho distinctive colours of tho team can be distinguished with equal facility, the Auckland fnien wearing blue and White and their adversaries in block. The match is to be divided into four spells of 274 minutes each, a breathing space of two minutes being allowed aftor each bout, while tho following altered mode of scoring has been determined on :—Goal from field, 4 points j goal from try, 5 points ; and try, 3 points; a goal kicked from a try only to count 5 points, the try not to be included. This is tho result of much consideration on the part of. tho players. The Wellington team set out in a-drag from the Star Hotel, shortly after 2 o'clock, and in Sbortland-strcct were met by the drag containing tbe Auckland men. Thence the two vehicles proceeded in company to the Domain, where their arrival [created some stir. Their names and positions arc as fol low : Auckland :—T. Hendersou (captain), Verity and J. Webster (full-backs), Arncil (three-quarter-back), Wood and Kiug (half backs), Carter and Lang (quarto-backs), T. Mackey, C. Burgess, Boale, Bindon. Croxston, Pilling, Thos. Henderson aud William Webster, Pilling took Grierson's place. Wellington :G. Campbell (cap tain), Whylio (full-back), A. Thomson aud Warbrick (half-backs), Davy (threc quartcr-backe), W. and J. Borry (quarter backs), Hicksou, J. Thomson, Roberts, Cameron, McMaster, Leckie, and Ronald son (forwards). Sharland nets ns umpire for Auckland and Wright for Wellington.

A few minutes after three o'clock Bimlon kicked oil' for Auckland. It was badly done, the ball spinning aloDg tliu ground. Berry received it, and started to run, but nas quickly met. A. Thompson then got it, and made a splendid run, almost reachiug the Auckland " 25," aud was grandly collared by King. Some quick passing then cneued, after which C. Burgess and Carter, working well together, carried the ball well beyond the half distance, -when Carter played it iuto touch. It was thrown in, and Wood at once pounced upon it. He essayed to kick, but was smartly collared, He passed it cleverly to King, who made a splendid iuu to the eastward side and well along the ground, gaining considerable distance. Several packed scrimmages then followed, iv most of which Wellington had a decided advantage. The ball having been dropped amougst our backs.^Verity and Webster simultaneously tried for it, aud bungled it badly to a scrimmage inside Auckland's 25.~ The ball was thenco worked by a series of scrimmages and short kicks to the western touch line, whence it was again taken by W. Berry to the centre. There a scrimmage was formed, a»id ou the ball emerging the Wellington forwards and notably, ltonaldson, and j. Thomson, con veyed it right up to the Auckland goal and through the posts. For an instant the chances seemed favourable for a try for Wellington, but C. Burgess averted the danger by falling on the ball at the critical moment, this being the first force down up to this staxe of the game. Verity kicked out with a high good drop, thus giving the forwards picnty of time to get up, so that Thomson's return was not a good one. Atter this Wellington in a series of scrimmages woiked the ball considerably past the centre of the ground, but Carter managed to get one of his noted runs, finishing with a long low punt, thereby saving much ground. Shortly afterwards J. Berry got a very good run, carrying the ball nearly to the western touch line, where he passed back to his brother, who though tunning a considerable distance, did not gain anything, as he went off straight across the ground. A hard bit of play, in which the Berrys were conspicuous, followed, and then A. Thomson had a flying drop at goal, but failed to score, the ball being touched down by Verity. Here the superior passing of Wellington was very noticable, the ball being passed through at least five or six hands before being held. At this junc ture the ball went into touch at the centre of the eastern touch-line, when time was called. A spell of 2 minutes ensued. Wellington kicked off and Auck land made a smart return. After a bit of rapid play, Warbrick got a ilying drop at goal from the half dis tance and sent the ball fairly between the posts makinglstscore— i points Verity kicked off, Auckland seeming de termined to regain the position. The ball was forced well up the ground, when, by a succession of short runs and rapid passing, Wellington carried it up to their oppo nent's 25 post, whence a good bit of forward play brought it to the centre of the ground. Here Davy secured a marked which Auckland disputed and the ball was backed off. Some steady scrimmages were now formed, nothing re markable occurring—the. ballj going in and out of touch on the eastern line. Wood gained considerable ground by a long punt into touch. On being again carried brought into play. J. Berry made a good run across the ground till hard profsod on the western touch line; he passed to A. Thomson, who dropped into touch. A good bit of play by the Auckland forwards drove the ball in a S.E. direction, when J. Thompson got a run. Using his strength to the utmost he Iforced his v/vy on, and was only stoppedjby the half-backs, Wood by a good punt recovering the lo3t ground. Auckland foiwards followed well up till they reached Wellington's 25, whence J. Berry managed one of the best runs of the day, fending remarkably well and running strong. The game is perhaps the fastest ever scon in Auckland. Wel lington here worked the ball well in front of the opposite* goal, out timed by a judicious drop, defeated their intention. Closely packed scrimmage.) be came the order of the time till Carter got another of his long punls, which was promptly returned by Warbriclc. The ba'l then went into touch, and half time was called. Bindon kicked off, and shortly after Berry obtained a mark from one of Wood's punts. Warbrick took place, but fulled. J. Thompson drove the ball back to.Verity, who, instead of kicking, tried to run, ond was at once collared—thus losing ;.r - und. A veryVfust bit of play by Wei cn^ton forwards took the ball to Auckland 1 •• 25."
