RAILWAY STATION.

(To the Editor). SIR —It is to be hoped that the selfishness of one, two, or, it may be, three individuals will give way to common sense and the Dublic good, and instead of hankering after their own personal interests and offering obstruction to that already decided upon, -will as good citizens endeavour to promote the welfare of this community andthe entire province. It is not to look at the present requirements, but what may be m 50 years to. come, when we may have a trunk Hue south to "Wellington, and north to Bay of Islands, the first and oldest settlement in New Zealand. Had it not been for the shuffling of some of our mem bers and the undue inlluence and juggling of the South, we should have had some measure of justice done up. APP s mifht smile on heariii',' the Hon. Mr Halls remarks lately to Auckland people about self-reliance. Have they not been almost self-reliant as tar us paternal Governments were concerned ? Session after session only passed to inflict greater injustice on the province of Auckland, while our Customs revenue was coolly drafted awny to pay interest on Southern branches fiom almost nohere to nowhere, as you have plainly shown in Saturday's issue-worked at a ruinous cost to the colony. -I am, &c, Genus Maori.

THE DEAD FISH.

(To the Editor.) Sib,—ln re this question of the dead fish some years ago I used to walk pretty often from Giahamstown to Tapu Creek, and during the autumn months I have noticed large quantities of dead and dying fish cast upon the shore. I have also seen the same thin<* occur on the shores of the Mauukau, about this time of the year. These fish wore chiefly " barracouta," and I used to think tlii'.t they had come up on the shore to die of old age. Iv many instances the scales were nearly all scratched off them. It is quite possible that fish are liable to some yearly distemper, which has assumed unusual proportions this season. On one occasion, some years ago, enormous quauti des of shags died iv the Hauraki Gulf, then death may have had some connection with this dviuj; of the fish.—l am, &<5., J OBSEEyEK. . .»

LARRIKINISM AND STREET PREACHING.

(To the Editor.) Sir,—The outbreak of larrikinism that occurred on Sunday nightmerits the censure of all law abidiug citizens, and any eimilar disturbances should be sternly repressed by the police. The method adopted by the hoodlums in attempting to put a stop to what they consider a public nuisance—an. opinion, which by the by is shared, I be lieve, by the majority of respectable people is precisely the means moat calculated to increase it, Keligious notions of every kind thrive aud llourish by real or imaginary persecution. To ensure the permanence of any religious system, the only thing re quired is an attempt to forcibly repress it. To this Jaw Hepworth Dixon in his " New America" attributes the rapid and exten sive spread of Mormonism with all its absurdities, delusions, and frauds. The same result will inevitably occur with street preaching. The poor deluded zealots will imagine that they are per secuted because of hatred to the gospel and its principles, and their num bers will bo swelled by others equally desirous of purchasing a cheap martyr's crown. There was a time when one could take a pleasant walk on Sunday cveuings, after being released from church, along the wharf, but now alas ! that pro menade cannot be taken without running tlic gauntlet of street preachers at sundry corners, -who labour under the extraordinary impression that they are divinely commis sioned to station themselves at various street jnnctions, and sputter forth bad Eng lish, and worse theology to all who have fie misfortune to approach within range of their lungs. If street preaching be neces 6iry why should Sunday nipht be selected ? And why should the preaching begin only at eight o'clock, when the majority of those who are. walking about have already at teuded church? In a city'like Auckland where there is scarcely anyone who does not dwell within live minutes walk of tome place of woiship, street preaching is wholly unnecessary, and is calculated to do more hnrm than good. It is, I think, creditaul< alike to the common sense and good tastecf the Auckland clergy, that only one haß adopted the questionable practice. I hare sometimes wondered whether it was exactly Christian of this reverend gentleman to stand or be comfortably seated on bis rostrum perfectly secure from all danger of catching cold, while he used his influence every Sunday night to prevail en a number of silly girls to stand round him for more than an hour, oftentimes on ground co!d, damp, and muddy, and most assuredly thus laying the foundation tor future disease and excruciating pain. Though the girls are to be pitied, yet I think it will be fortunate for the next generation if these young women pay the penalty of their gross dis regard for the laws of health before they have the opportunity of becoming mothers. To my mind it seems utteily unchristian that a man should thus use his influence as a pastor for the purpose of giving a little fcblat to his street preaching. I don't believe that anything in Christ's teaching can be found to justify any person in thus wan tonly and unnecessarily exposing himself or hcrselt to tho iisk~posstbly 6f premature death but most certainly of disease —1 am, &c, Spectator.

THE SHIPWRIGHTS AND IRON WORKERS.

(To the Editor.) Sic, —Your correspondent, " Shipwright" is putting the cart before the horse when he says there were no ironship-buildfrs from 1851 to 1854. The Cuuard steamer Persia was built between these years, and there was hot a shipwright employed on' her at ironwork. Several of the luman line were built before that, and by the same class of men, also four of the 'Allan Hue before 1552, also by the ironworkers. John Scott, of Grcenock, was the first on the Clyde' to try the shipwrights. I believe he bnilt two ships, winch went to Liverpool, and were con demned, and had to be taken asunder and put up again by ironworkers at the masters expense. Ruin followed, no one wanting a good ship would send an order to the panic yard. The ship wrights drove the trade out of Dublin, and London. Money nnd Wigrarn gave np in despair, and now get their ships built else where. Now Mr Editor it is nonsense to art»ue with men who will insist that iron is wood and wood is iron, and because a ship is a ship no man should work at her but a shipwright. Apply the same line of argu in»nt to hon^o rirppntcrs. They have just as good a, right fo build tho house'whether the material is hick or stone. In conclusion I may inform " Shipwrights" that very few of tlieii cliws are emp'oyed nowon the Clyde. Tho masters had to part with them when tlic Steamship companies put their own Inspectors to look ;: ft or the work. 80 the Gunard, lino, lava two to every vessel— one a thoroughbred boilcrmaker, the other a , shipwright. The one has nothing to do with tlie other's work. The same with the lumen, Allan and other first class lines. As for armour plates there is not a single rivet in them—they are bolted to the wood inside, and the ship. Wrights when they put in the bolts, roll a piece of oakum round the heads ; a tine way to caulk iron. —I am &c, . leokwokker.

A very graphic incline of American life in San Francisco is given by Mr. Dixon. "Nc one," lie says, "is calJn. No man sits down to smoko the pijie of peace ; no day .seems long'enough for labour. All men and women aim at emphasis. An actoi rhuts, a preacher roars, a singer screams, fcmcli talk as suits a London dining-room sounds tame; such colours as beseem a London dancing-room look dull. The pulses of society beat too high for ordinary men and ordinary times. A storm comet beating overhead, a battle raging in our front. If we could live we need to be alert and prompt, A citizen bolts his dinner, gulps his whiskey, putts his cigarettes, and hurries off as though he heard a bugle call. He sits at table with A loaded pistol in his pocket ; he lingers his bowie-knife while asking a friend to drink. A life to be onvicd surely !". The skill of the Celestials in legerdemain is even exercised in their cookery, and at a recent Chinese banquet to Americans in San Francisco, somo very curious dishes were produced. Each guest, the San Fran cisco News Lettci tolls us, received an orange which appeared to be in its pristine condition, but, on being opened, contained five different kinds of jelly. No trace was visible of any cut in the orange to extract the pulp. Coloured eggs were also filled with jelly, nuts, meat, and sweets, in a similar manner. The interpreter, when asked for an explanation, declared, "Mcliran man'heap smart, why lie not
