Immedia tely behind the reef a well-defined foot-wall came in, which has been.driven on about 15.feet, and continues, unbroken, having all the indications of the walls of the lode channel of country, and running about the same, course as shewn in the margin. The calculated position of the point we drove for is the left hand corner of the present face of the level, making a difference of on ly half the width of the drive between the approximate position and the channel that has been cut. I have instructed.tho con tractor to keep hard to the northern side of the level, so as to keep the channel in the drive without deviating from the course, and I'll make no alteration in the lines till circumstances warrant it

SETTLEMENT.

(To tho Editor.)

Sir,—Theie can bo but one sentiment in tho community at largo regarding the resolution of the Waste Lands Hoard in the disposal of the To Aroha block ; and every person who is capable or taking a liberal and intelligent view of the settlement mid prospects of this proviucu would read your remarks in yesterday's BTAU with a fueling of hopeful relief, trusting to a who re-con sideration of the matter. I should not desire to intrude a singlo word on your space to express the astonishment and regret I relt on reading the result of tho Board's discussion, were it not that a very strong impression remains on my mind of the inducements hold out to the most dosirablo classofsettlers byother countriesnowalmost absorbing the outflow of British emigration. Our Colonial Government seems to bo blind to the fact that the vast majority of that class we ought by all means to welcome to our shores are not able, or willing, to forogo the advantages held out by tho United States and Canada to tho agriculturist for tho supposed benefits of a home in a British commuuity and under British rule. To any ono who has seen the wide regions of America available for settlement, from the rich valleysof Old Virginia to tho prairies of the New States, and the fertile lands of the great^Pacific slope, it will appear to be a hiijh compliment indeed to our Colony and social institutions that a body of such intelligent and enterprising men should oho'oso their future homes in Now Zealand. X must be remembered that tho rule of settlement in the States in the first instance in, almost universally, the homestead prin ciple, under which the first applicant is en titled to 160 acres of laud, free and for ever, no matter what may be its quality or its vicinity. And this, too, may do land ready tor the plough, and which will yield abun dant crops for years, without tho costly pro -1 minarios of clearing and draining, or ap- I lying the lnovitablo bones. With admir t bio railroads permeating the nearest and r 3motdr region* of the country, with which c ur one-horse railways cannot as yet be com pared ; with an illimitable market and com paratively cheap labour, to say nothing about independence of "the proud man's con tumely," there may be temptations too strong to be resisted by the English, yeo man, with all his attachment to English institutions, which our cheese-paring policy does not tend to make less powerful to others than to tho thousands who aro land ing daily on the American continent, not withstanding the many drawbacks to settle ment in Canada and the United States. The consideration of the three or four thousand pounds on the price of .so largo a block of land as that proposed to be settled is too paltry and ridiculous to-be set against tho benefits accruing both to tho public revenuo and to the country, and especially to Auck land, trom tbo settlement of so many Eng -1 sh farmers at To Aroha, where men of their means and intelligence would soon achieve a degree of comfort and success Hiey could not hope for iv the Old Country, mid in a climate such as can rarely be on joyed in tho Fens of Lincolnshire.'— I am, &c, A. Murray McCallum. Takapuna, 6th October, 1880.

OHINEMUTU HOTEL LICENSE.

(To the Editor.)

illß, —At a meeting of tho Licensing Court for the Makctu district, held here on the 21th instant, Inspector Emerson objected to 4 license being granted to me on the grounds that 1 was a lono woman, and though qualified to keep a private boarding-house, was not suited to take the management ot a licensed house. This action on the part of the Inspector o£ Police appears to me a great piece of presumption. He knows full well that for many months I have been spending my time and money in endeavouring to ob tain my just rights to this hotel, and now at the eleventh hour he coolly steps in and vetoes my application for a license. The old residents of Taurang* are ■wel! aware that for sixteen years I was dng'dge'd in business in that township, and that during that period my character was unimpeaahablo. Inspector Emerson would be more ably executing his duty by assist ing tbo bailiff to enforce the seal of the Supreme Court with respect to this Hotel, than by raising frivolous objections of the character named.—Yours respectfully,

ANN KOBERTSON, OMhemutu, 28th Sept., 1880.

OUR PUBLIC CEMETERIES.

(To the Editor.)

Silt, —It was gratifying to me, as, no doubt, it was to all who read the charge delivered yesterday by His Honor Mr Justice Rich mond, to observe that he considered it hia duty to comment strongly on the pernicious habits 03 practised by a very large number of our youths. Amongst others I should like to draw your attention to the conduct of many of this class who are to be found Sunday after Sunday resorting to the above as a place of amusement. It is on such days that the mourners wend their steps to the sacred spot under which lies the sacred dust of a loved one departed : but rarely is it, sir, that such can thus be found without having the solemness of the surroundings marred by the foul language of those to whom I have referred. Only on Sunday lftst, as I stoodby the newly-made grave, was tins painful sight repeated, when a dozen of these unruly characters rushed from the street, and gave vent to the most irreverent language in speaking of the sacred dead. Sir, I ask, can no means be adopted by our police authorities for two or three hours on Sunday afternoons, when those who have friends at rest in the grave can resort thither without having; to listen to such unseemly language ? Trusting this matter will commend itself as worthy of attention through your valuable paper, and hoping such may lead to some action being taken to stay this torrent of iniquity, — I am. &&,

THE HEALTH OF COLONIAL YOUTH.

(To the Editor.)

Sir,—That the climate of the northern portion of New Zealand partakes far more of the relaxing than it does of the bracing and' invigorating, none will donbt. Yet; "With a fair share of outdoor life, how comes it that so largo a proportion of the youth Of both sexes exhibit,so little of that rosy robustness which ought to be ? Observation ■ will -notice that habits of life influence phy-' seal health for good or bad equally, if not greater than climate. Moderate evening hours,'-with early rising, as a means for pro moting and establishing good health, i 3 too well confirmed to admit ef any denial, yet, notwithstanding this sturdy fact, bo very, many young men, and young women too, are found-acting the exact reverse, and not uufrequenfly encouraged in this course by those older in years. If more robustness in youth .and manhood is desired, then the practice of some early morning exercise, joined with the banishment of late and mid rii>»ht>hburß, is indispensable. Would air the.tftie friends of youth but seek, (o qncoUraS?B the exchange of the midnight dissipating dance for early morning dut-door games or occupations, what beneficial results would quickly be seten. Our attention] was drawp to this vital matter, by observing a notice in the Stak a night or two since, of a school dancing ajsembly held in one of the suburbs under the Kguidance of a lady tutor, and this gathering departing to their homes at threo o'clock in the morning I Is this specimen to be named beneficial recreation? Would that friends of youth would give a little more consideration for their true well-being, and not thus sacrifice their future tor the present. When the very purest and most invigorating air of the whole day is en tirely lost, and the objectionable night atmosphere so frequently chosen instead, how can we look for youth to grow any thing besides comparatively weakly and slender. To be earnest and practical, there are at least a score of occupations or amuse ments well adapted to be beneficial' to health and character in the early morning, and among these may be mentioned, (male) cricket,* walking abroad, gardening ;; in general, handy manufacturing, bathing, boating, &c. ; (female) flower gardening, swings, croquet, music practise, cooking, &c'?jlfa robust population is desired, let colonists of all ages foster and encourage early <rising—with moderate evening houra —in their households ; but if weakly effe minacy is sought, let only the ; frivolous dance with its associated midnight hours be patronised, and the fruits of the same will follow.—l am &c,

At a ladies' seminary one of the teachers had just finished reading the thrilling story of "Daniel in'the Lion's Den" to the infant class, and had asked the stereotyped question " Who was Daniel-?" when a bright five-year-old stretched forth her hand to indicate she knew, and to the amazement of the" questioner lisped out "Dan Kelly.

SUPREME COURT.-YESTERDAY.

CEIMINAL SITTINdS.

(liefore His Honor Mr Justice Richmond.) ALMJOED HORSE-STEALING. WiKorotu,a Maori hoy,was charged with stealing at Opotiki a bay mare belonging to Watson Penny, of Whakatane. Ho pleaded not guilty. The .substance of tho evidence was that the animal in question had becu lent to a settler named Delauey, who placed her upon his run, whore the prisoner had also ajbay mare. The prosecutor's mare suddenly da appeared from the run, nnd was afterwards found in the possession of the prisoner.

Tho prisoner said that thero was a witness who could state the circumstances under which the horso was taken, but he had not been brought up to Auckland.

Mr Lichlield, who had acted as interpreter in the Court below, mentioned that the committing Magistrate (Mr Bush) had no menus of sending the witness to Auckland. The prisoner had borno a good character, and his connections wore influential people amongst their race.

His Honor, after stating that in some cases the Magistrate was justified in stretch ing his authority a little for the purpose of assisting witnesses for the defence to reach the place of trial, said that he would leave it for tho jury to say whether sufficient evi dence had been adduced to establish ihe prisoner's guilt—or whether he had simply mistaken the animals.

The jury, after a brief consultation, relumed a verdict of " Not guilty," uml the prisoner was forthwith discharged.

THIS DAY. RAPE.

Alexander Smith, a youth of 17 year*, convicted of a rope upon a little girl at Pon aouby, was brought up for sentence. His Honor, addroaaiug the prisoner : You said something that I did not hear clearly. You were crying so much about the state in which you had buou brought up. What was that?— Something abuut your father. Prisoner (tremulously): I havo no parents. His Honor : VVhoro do you come from ? Prisoner (crying): Wellington. His Honor : Were you born in Wel lington ?

Prisoner: No, Your Houor, I was born in Auckland.

ilia Honor: " I dare say you Lnivo boon accustomed to consider that the thiug you hava done was a very trifling matter, but 1 must tell you tlmt it is a thing which the law may punish even with iinpiison moat ioi life. I might legally send you to gaol for tho term of your natural life, bat after thiukiiig what I should do with you, I have determined that the beat thing for society is to make your puuishnicnt short and ulmrp. I think it better— not for you so much as tor society at large—that your imprisonment should be sharp and short. Therefore, I intend to give you a very short term of imprisonment. Tho sentence of tho Court is that you bo imprisoned and kept to hard labour for tho term of three mouths, in the common gaol of Auckland, nud that you bo twice pri vately whipped, and that each time you receivo twelve strokes from the instrument commonly called tbo cat-o'-nine tails. Jtto move tho prisoner." STEALING FItOM A DWiLLINO. Elizabeth Harris (17 years), and Cecilia Carroll (14 years), convicted of this oit'ence, were the.» brought up for sentence. His Honor :—Prisoners at the bar, —You have pleaded guilty to taking and stealing from a dwelliug-house property of very great value. It is an otteuce for which you might be sent for many years to gaol. But you are both mere children, i'hero has been nothing previously against you, so far as I know. It is your first offence—at least I hope it is; but at any rato it is the first which has brought you before this Court of Justice. lam going to give you a light punishmont, and in dealing it out I would hope that when you have received it you will come out of the gaol determined to behave yourselves better for the future. If you do not, but relapse into criminal practices, you may be sure that you will be found out. The reason which induces me to give you only a short im prisonment is that I think it better in tho public interests. If I send you to gaol for seven years you might be turned out con firmed thieves, bat a short sentence will give you opportunities for reformation which I hope you will not miss. \ ou, Carroll, are older than you look, and much more knowing! lam sure you knew better than to do the offence proved against you. It is from want of knowledge that you have acted.; Neither you nor you, .Elizabeth Harris, can urge such an excuse. If you were grown up, or had been con victed ot previous offences, I should be obliged to visit such an otfence as this with penal servitude; but under the circum stances I think it better for the public to send you to gaol for a short term, so that you may leave it with the determination not to go' in again, than to imprison you for a long time." His Honor then inflicted a sentence of six months' imprisonment with hard labour.

ALLEGED BREACH OF ABMS ACT. Jobn Sainsbury surrendered to bis bail, and was arraigned upon an indictment charging him with having on the 10th of March,' 1879, at Whangamata, in the Thames district, sold one pound of gun powder, ten pounds of shot, and one hun dred percussion caps without having a license under the Arms Acts to do no.

The accused pleaded not guilty. Mr E. Heaketh appeared to defend him. The Crown Prosecutor in opening the case said that the offence with which the prisoner was charged, though at first eight it might not appear to be of very great im portance, was really very serious in its character. The Act was passed shortly be fore the Maori war broke out in order to prevent arm's and ammunition from being supplied to natives at all, and it had been in force ever since. At one time a breach of its provisions was considered such a serious oifence that it was visited with nothing less than penal servitude for no shorter a term tlmii three years. Amendments have since been made, giving judges a larger discre tionary power in passing light sentences. The learned gentleman then proceeded to define the particular provision which the prisoner was charged with infringing. Sec tion 28 of the Act of 1860, he said, declared " that any who should' sell or dispose Of, with er without price, arms, ammunition, or warlike a tore, should be guilty of felony. Mr Brookfield then put in evidence a Go vernment gazette of 1861, containing a pro clamation by Governor Gore Brown, bring ing the Arms Act .of 1860 into operation throughout the colony, besides some other formal papers. Superintendent Thomson was the first witness called. He stated that he was a Licensing Ollicer under the Arms Act, 18G0, and then produced the notifications of bis appointment. He was first appointed in I^7o, and the appointment was' confirmed in 1873. There were only two other Licens ing Officers under the same Act in the pro viucial district, and they were stationed at Taurunga and Gisborne respectively. Sub- Inspector Bullen when at the Thames had acted in a similar capacity, but owing to his transterence to Tauraugii two years ago wit ness's powers bad beea extended over the .Thames district also. There used to be 'Licensing Officers at both Mongonui and' tno Bay of Islands, but they had recently been dispensed with, and not replaced by othora. All licenses, there fore, for the Thames and the North were issued by him. He had issued no license to'the'prisoner. Sergeant Edward Lewis, of the Thames Police force, and clerk to the Licensing Ollicer under the Arms Act for that district, stated that since the removal of Sub- Inspector Bulleu all applications tor licenses to sell arras, ammunition, etc., had been forwarded to Superintendent Thomson, A discussion arose at this stage between His Honor, the Crown Prosecutor, and Mr Hesketh as to whether it remained for the prosecutor to prove that the prisoner had no license, or for the prisoner to prove that he had the license.

His Honor said finally that he was disin clined to rule peremptorily upon the point, but would reserve it for consideration.

Hapuka, an aboriginal native who resides near Whangainatu, which is 20 miles from the Thames, was then examined. He swore that he bought gunpowder, shot, and per cussion caps from the prisoner at his store Whangamatu. He paid 25a for them. The ammunition was then produced and identi : tied, tie had previously bought ammunition at the same place. In answer to questions put by Mr Hcßketh, this witness said that he required the powder and shot for the shooting of pigeons. He did not know whether, when he and a Maori^friend were sojourning at the Thames, a native interpreter named Davis wrote out for them what he desired them to pay in Court.

Die witness was also asked if he o\ved the prisoner any money, and after fencing the question adroitly for some time, he at length answered it in the affirmative. Several times he objected to being queried on this matter, but on His Honor ruling that the questions were pro •per^ones he was obliged to submit. Ho was next asked whether he thought that if the piisocer left the district the debts would go with him, and to.this he replied that" when it is known that the money is owing then if will also be known what shall becoms of the debts. This cautious answer provoked

the Court to laughter. He was then questioned with retcrenco to tho sale ot a cow to the prisoner. At first he professed no remembrance of such a transaction, but when the receipt was produced it suddenly Hashed across his mind. The name upon the receipt was his, but he could not say whether he wrote it. He re commended the Court, however, to oompaio this signaturo with his own upon his deposi tions. Upon thia being done, the two signatures were found to be absolutely identical. He was shown them, when aftor carefully scrutinising them, he noncbalnntly ic marked that they were oxactly similar.

The examination of Martin Pahau, friend of the last witness, has "just becen com menced.

There are a number of other witnesses whose evidences will be taken at some length.

: It is thought that tho jury will bo locked up for the night. (Left sitting.)

WASTE LANDS BOARD.

A special meeting of the Wasto Lands Hoard was held nt 2 o'clock this afternoon. Present: D. A. Tolo (in the chair), Messrs Tonics, May, and Moat.

The chairman replied the object of the meeting, which was to enable them to consider certain proposals which had been sbggoated by dipt. Stoele in the terms and conditions proposed by the Snnd Board, for tho sale to Messrs Grant and Foster of 17,000 acres in tho To Arolia district and further to confer with Captain Stcclo, who was in attendance to give information* upon tho subject matter of tho proposals genorally. This oouho had been snggested at the last meeting as the best moans of bringing about h speedy settlement of tho whole question. The chairman then road a telegram which mid been addressed by tho lion. F. Whitaker to tho Minister of Lauds, mid which suggestion tho coufso indicated above In order to refresh their memories ho (tbo Chairman) would read tho terms and conditions which bad been anived at at tho previous meeting. lie also read v letter from Captuiu Steolo, embody ing tho alternative proposals on behalf of Mossrs. Grant and Foster, and ho concluded by suggesting that tho Board should go through tho conditions seriatim, which was agreed to. It was agreed bytbo Board that tlio matter of tho extinguishment of Mr Russell's title must bo left to tho Government. Tho chairman said ho understood tho Govern raent wcro taking Bteps to bring about a speedy aotllcment, and a letter from Mr Heskoth, as solicitor on behalf of Mr Rus sell, had been sent to tho Minister of Laurie, urging that somo distinct decision should be come to. Mr Hesketh had gono into tho details of tho question up to tho present hour. With regard to the acreage, tho Board proposed to sell 17,000 acres, which Captain Stollo asked to be increased to 17,900. In had been discovered by careful recent computations that the exact area wus 17,600 acres. Ho recommended that that bsuccoptcd as tho area, in order to prevent future disputes. . Iv referenco to the question of tlio prico per acre, the Board determined to accept Mr Percy Smith's valuation of 33s to 34s por acre, which CnptainSteeleaUo accepts.—Tho Board also agreed to tho following terms \— That a deposit payment of 5s por acre bo paid in London six months atter tbo execution of the ngreemont; 5' por ucro fix months after lirst. payment; third payment of 10s twelve months after ditto of second payment; tbo balance of purchaao money to be paid within twelve months of tho third payment. Captain Steele, ou behalf of Messrs Grant and Foster, egrets to introduce at least 225 adult cmigranta.

US With reference to the condition by the Board " that within six months after arrival of tho said emigrants, 45 families of settlers be settled on the land," it truußpircd that Captain Steclo had misunderstood this resolution, and he finally agreed to accept it on its original form. He also agreed to the acceptance of tho terms for tho erection of 45 dwelling houses on the land.

Clause 7 of the conditions was amended as follows :—" That each settler shall, unless with the consent of the Board, for a poriod of three years continue to reside on tlio land co selected."

Tho following conditions wore agreed to : —One fifth of tho laud bo occupied to be brought into cultivation before the expira tion of the said period (three years); culti vation to mean : Ist, breaking up and lay ing down the land in English or other cul tivated grass; or, 2nd, breaking up and plan ting or sowing root or other crops therein. Swamp and bush land as follows :—Drain and surface sowing, bush burning for surface sowing. This relates to swamp and bush. The other conditions were agreed to with several unimportant amendments.

THE NEW PREACHER.

He Introduces a Novel M..iTnoD of

Salvation.

Services were first hold in Calico Church last Sunday night. It had been announced that a new preacher would address the con gregation, and that a now method of pre senting Gospel facts would be adopted. The colored people wore very anxious to hear the new preacher. A now way of pro senting the Gospel excited curiosity. ,On Sunday night thehouse was well filled. The preacher waa rather late. Finally he came. All eyes were turned toward him. He was Jerry the ex-politican. Ascending the pulpit, the old man wiped the perspiration from his brow, and said, " Lot us pray." The congregation bowed low, and. the old man raised bin hands, and exclaimed: •' Lord de agent ob all light an 1 de destroyer ob all darkness, hah mussy on de sinners ob dc lan'. Take de lie outen de mouta ob de politicians, an'enable'your aarvant to dis charge, his 'sponaible duties. Amen." The preacher wiped his face again, land, after regarding his congregation fora few seconds said : "We'll omit do singin'. Dar hab been too much siagin' and too little action in dis worl'. De cricket sings and the beo labors, Dc cricket dies when winter comes, but de bee hab laid up de sweetmeats of pentance. Afore I enters detex',|it mayjnot be outen place to tell yer my 'sperience. I kin do it in a fow words. I foun'l was on de wrong road, and dat a man 'of J rny 'fluence cood do much. I quit politics, took out a license, an' am now a preacher. Now fur de tex'. 'He dot hb3! by de sword shall perish by de sword." De nalagous ob this is, he dat libs by de ballot-box mast perish by the ballot-box. De salvation of a man's soul, is wuth morn all do votes he can get, but the garden of 'ligiou hab growed up in the weeds. My mission is to pull iifr do weeds. I'ppsea tor make a reform.

Der Lord doari say I wish you would do anything, but says you's got ter do it. Firmness is religion. De rook of ages is made outen flint. Mr Johnson," said the preacher, addressing a sinner, "conle up ah put yer head on this bench. I's played kyards wid ycr, but you'se got ter reform. Come on, I tells yer ;is yer comin ?" |f "No, I isn't," said Mr Johnson. •• Den I'll fetch yer.

I doan wauter have no truck wid you man." •' Come up heah to this bencb or I'll drag yer dar. De gospel is roused. De time ob sal vntion is at han," " Turn me loose, I tell yor.

The two men began struggling and the wildest confusion prevailed. " Sing the old ' Tugboat of Zion,' " said the preacher, and the congregation obejed. Finally Mr Johnson was dragged to the bench. He ■was warned not to lift up his head ; and as a deacon was stationed over him with a club, he did not look up. "Go out and and 'pel 'em ter come in," said the preacher. De feast ob der Lord must be 'tended, boy," .exclaimed the preacher; put yer head on de board of "pentance. Go on, nr yer'll bo lame for a week.

The deacon sprang' forward and was on the eve of braining the sinner when ho announces his willingness to go.- Some fifteen or twenty were thus taken up and frightened by so determined an example, theother sinner meekly obeyed. Within an hour froriT the time preaching began seventy-five mourners were on the bench. Old Jerry stood in the midst ex horting.

looked up as if hunting for tho star. "Dv gospel car is rollin'. Sinners is comin' ter "pentatlce." A refractory mourner jumped up and attempted to run, but was promptly knocked down by one |of the deacons. The meeting lasted till nearly daylight, and the preacher left, highly satisfied with the resnlt. It is said other preachers are going to adopt thia method, and that a sweeping religious campaign will soon be instituted,—" Little Rock Gazette."
