axo which he had held lirmly in his right hand all the time and made as if ho inten ded to strike Mr Melville on the head with it. Ho turned and ran quickly iv tho direction of tho back-door, and tho native pursued him all the way, witli the axe still uplifted ready to strike. Pausing for a moment, Mr Melville pushed some children who were playing* near the doar, iusido the house, and then loocked the door. lam firmly of opinion that tho object of Mr Molville in running away was to secure tho safety of the children. I was in the washouso when Mr Melville Game, but I went outside after the black fellow. When the door was closed, he turned round and made a rush at me. lie was several feet from me wheu he turned. He did not speak, nor did I, but when ho lifted tho axe over my head I screamed out. I did not turn round to run in the opposite direction, but merely raised my arms in order to ward off tho blow, which I felt sure would fall on my head. lie struck me with the axe, but I could not say positively whether it win on the head or the arm. I believe however that it was my arm that was struck, because the blow was such a heavy one that had it fallen on my head it must ceitiinly havo split the wkull open. I fell to the ground, and he struck mo several other strokes with the axe. I then sprang up and seized the handle on the weapon with both hand?. I had a good grasp of it, and tho native could not force it from me. Seeing this, he let go his hold, and ran over to the coal heap. There was a small tomahawk used for breaking coals lying there, and he picked this up and ran at me again. This was accomplished so quickly that I had no op portunity fii escaping. The native then struck me a severe blow on the arm with a tomahawk. All this had happened in a moment, and Mr Melville was not inside very long. Just then he came out of tho front door and called out -' ,Go into the house, Mrs Arnold, and I'll deal with him." I did not sco Mr Melville, hut he must have placed himielf between mo and the mur derer. I ran into tho dwelling-house and left them there. I did not even see what Mr Melville was armed with, and in fact that was the last I wit nessed ot tho struggle. Immediately after wards I ran out of the front door, and over to Appleby's, in order to give tho alarm. Mrs Appleby and a young man who was iv charge of a horse and cart returned with me. Mrs Melville, in the meantime, had gone to Webster's and given the alarm there. Ido not think the murderer was mud, and I am sure ho was not under the iuilnence of liquor. This concluded the statement, which was given by Mrs Arnold in a most clear and intelligent manner, notwithstand ing tho pain she was suffering.

MRS ARNOLD'S INJURIES. Immediately after the nativo had been secured, Mrs Arnold's injuries were bandaged to by Mra Melville, and sho was then taken to the Asylum in order to have them properly dressed. Thence she proceeded to the residence of Mr Sansome, her brother, in ordsrflthat she might receive necessary caie and attention. The injuries which she has received are of a most serious nature. Tho blow on her face caused a largo jiash on the middle of the forehead, imme diately above the nose. Uoth eyes were blackened, and tlie right one looks very much bruised. She sustained a heavy blow •with tho blunt end of the axe on the left shoulder, and her back consequently is very painful. She believe* that this blow was intended to smash her skull in, but she warded it off on to her ahoulder. Her left arm is very much hacked below tho elbow, and several pieces of fiesh have been cut out, but it is considered almost certain that the arm has not been broken. Mrs Arnold had not been visited by a medical man from yesterday morning up till the time of our reporter's visit. She desires us to express her thanks to Mr and Mrs Melville, Mr Stcne, and other friends who have been kind to her. We have also to thank Mr and Mrs Sansome for their conrtcsy to our representative.

THE INQUEST.

An inquisition into the circumstances under which Henry Louis Kces came by his death on the night of Monday or the morn ing of Tuesday last, vvtu commenced this afternoon at the Eden Vine Hotel before Dr Philson, district coroner, and a jury of four teen. The following gentlemen were empan welled :—Samuel AVilliam, John Herbert Barns, Frederick Lambournc, William Col well, tnoch Wood, Joseph Fletcher, Thomas Teasdale, Walter McLaren Davidson, Thomas Edmund Evans, George Daniels Jievan, Thomas Glover, Thomas Holmes, Jacob Prime, and Robert Stevenson.

Mr Stevenson was chosen foreman,

Sub-Inspector Pardy conducted the exam ination and Mr Tburston interpreted for the benefit of the prisoner, who was present.

After the customary oath had been ad ministered the jury viewed the body. It was turned off on its belly in order that the gaping wound might be fully perceived. The appearance which it presented was borriblc beyond description. The skull had been cleft open and the sides of the wound were fully two inches asunder.

John Watkinson, a youth employed as a labourer by Matthew Crawford, of the Kingsland Road, was the first witness. lie deposed: My master is a dairyman, and I live with him at his house. Yesterday morning I left home in company with my master after five o'clock, for the purpose of deliver ing the usual supplies of milk to the customers in town. We proceeded along the Kingsland Koad and thence into the New North Koad. As we were passing along the latter road, distant about a chain from Mr Patterson's gate, the horse shied, and, on looking for the cause, we saw what seemed to be a bundle of rags on the left or further side of the thoroughfare. The horse ran back some distance, and then we palled up. Got out of the cort to see what the object was. It proved to bo the body of a, man lying with its feet on the edge of the raised road way, and its trunk hanging face nnd belly downwards over the side. The head was bare, and a stream of blood had run thence to the lower ground. The hair was steeped in blood, and there were also pools of blood around it. I per ceived a duen gash on the back of the .'.eft ear. I did not touch the wound nor inter fere at all with the body. I left it there. My master did not get out of the cart. I did not see the wounded man's hat. I re mounted the cart, and came along with it until we met Sergeant Clark atthe Edinburgh Castle corner when we stopped, and in - formed him of the discovery. I have seen tho body which the jury have just viewed. I identify it as the same which I saw on the road yesterday morning. Tbo deceased was not known to mo, nor had I ever, so far as 1 can recollect, seen him before. I saw no marks of a scuffle upon the ground, it was hardly clear enough to wake any examination. The time was 5.15; day was just breaking. Life was extinct when I saw the body ; I am surd of that, but I can't say how long the man had been dead.

On being asked if he bad any questions to ask, the prisoner endeavoured to make a rambling statement. It was not translated, however.

Sergeant Andrew Clack deposed : I re member Tuesday morning, the 28|inst., when I met the last witness and his master near tbe Edinburgh Castle Hotel. Tho time was 5.20. They reported that a man was lying dead on the New North Road, and I proceeded thither at once. I found tho body in the position described by the last witness. I examined it. It was lying face downward, the head towards the fence and tbe feet pointing to the road The hands were under the trunk. There was a large quantity of coagulated blood, and it ex tended about three feet from tho body, besides covering a extent of ground about two feet wide. Tho skull was fractured extensively behind the left ear, and the brains were protruding. The gap in tho skull was about an inch and a half wide. At first I thought there was only one blow inilicted but since then I have come to the conclusion that there were two blows at least, but they must have struck tho same place. They must lmve been delivered from behind, most probably with a sharp axe, for the edges of the bone were very cleanly cut. There were no other injuries, an instrument similar to the one produced (an ordinary American axe head) would inflict such a wound. (The doctor here ex amined the axe head with a magnifying fibs*, and then stated that some grey hairs wcrb upon it. Mr Purdy confirmed this statement). The blade of the axe is sharp, and there aro dried blood and hair upon it. (The hair was here examined with the glass and compared with a lock cut Itom the head of the deceased). I cannot say whether or not' the blood upon tbe axe is human. The hair is dark in colour, and similar to the specimen taken trom the head of de ceased by Detective Jeffrey. I examined the road vo:y closely, for "the purpose of finding footprints denoting a scutlle, but the ground was hard. 1 could see none beyond a mark evidently made by the toe of de ceased in reeling to fall. Death, in my opinion, was instantaneous. The trunk of the body was warm, but the extremities were cold, the arms and legs being rigid. I think it is probable that six or seven hours must then have elapsed from the period of L-dcatfa TThft il f v i■ i tliafc

hours after death.] For some time after I reached tho body no one was with me, but afterwards Sub-Inspector Pardy and Detective Jell'rcy joined me. I searched the body, and found in the pockets a pipe, a piece of tobacco, n. penknife, and a handkerchief. I found his hat (produced) close by, with a clean cut about six inches long on the back of it. There is blood upon the hat. The cut is sullicieut to admit a considerable extent ot tho blade of the axe.

Having made these observations, I removed tho body to the Eden Vino Hotel, whera the jury havo seen it. I searched the vicinity, but found no implement. The axe was got elsewhere by Detective JellYcy. In the course of yesterday I believe deceased's wife and daughter identified tho body.

Emma Reos, 12 years of ago, was brought lin by her mother, both being deeply agitated. She deposed :—I am the daugh ter of the late Henry Louis Hoes and Martha Kees, and I resided with them at Moruiagside. I remember Monday night last. My mother was absent in Aucklund, and soon after we lit the candle, my father loft for the purpose of meeting her. He never came back, but my mother did. She arrived about a quarter of an hour after my father wnnt out. I have only seen the feet of the body, but I recognise it as that of my father. It was lying at the hotel then. After my mother came home I went along the road to see if I could sec father. I met a bliick man with an axe over his shoulder. Ho was baiefooted, and bad a white coat on. The prisoner is the man I think. He was not far from our honst., and he was walking slowly along. I did not notice whether he had a hat on nis head. When I saw him I ran back home, but I did not tell mother about what I had seen lest I should frighten her. The hat produced is my father's, but it was not cut when I saw it last. The pri soner had a long handled axe. The handle was like that produced. Tho witness gave her evidence very intelligently, though in a tearful manner.

In answer to a question from the coroner, Mrs Roes said that her Into husband's uge was 42 years.

Dr. J. H. Hooper deposed : I was not acquainted with the deceased, but at the request of the jury, I have tbu day made a post mortem examination of the body. He was a,man in the primo of life, and well nourished. I have discovered no marks of external violence? on the body beyond those on the ho.ul. The hair of the- scalp was covered with blood and dirr. There was a large scalp wouud about live iuches long on the top of the head to the left sido over the left temple and parietal bones communicat ing with a comminuted fracture ot the boue, producing a gap into which you could pass your index finger. It was about an inch in width and extended through the lura mater to the brain. Be hind the ear, on the same side, there was a second fearful gosh, into which three or four fingers could be passed. It was fully three inches wide, and perhaps four. It fractured the occipital and tenpanal bones crushing them into small piocc?. The brain was ex posed here to a large extent, and injured to the deptb of at least four inches. 'I he sub - stance of the- brain was lacerated. The edges of the bone are jagged, not cleanly cut. On removing the calvarium (top ot the skull), I found that the fracture ex tended to the base of the. skull iv various directions. The whole of the temporal bone seemed to bo completely loose, wnile several small pieces were press ing in upon the brain. There was a large clot of blood also at the base of the brain on the left .side, I found no other injuries besides these. There were no bruises to be seen on the body. At least three blows must, in my opinion, have been giveD. There were two dis tinct cuts, and it seema to be that tic third must have been delivered on the side ot the head, producing a depiession. The implement used must have been a sharp edged one. The axe produced woul 11 c sii Ilkient to do it. Death must havo been nearly instantaneous. The man could not have survived more thaa two or three minutes. The first blow I think was de livered from behind, and tbo others as he lay upon the ground, ro just as he was falling. The bands arc covered with blood and dirt but there arc no cuts about them. I did not notice any injury about the face. The cause of death was the fracture of the skull and the injuries to the brain. I stripped the body to the waist and found no other marks npon it. I believe the man to have been in perfect health. The clothing of deceased is not torn, but there id a great deal of blood on the sleeves of the coat.

William Koec licensed I am a carpenter, and reside in Claremont-street, off the Kyber Pass Koad. On Monday evening lant.ijnljout 9. 15., I waa [standing on the footpath just opposite the Edinburgh Castle Hotel, taking with me a friend who was sitting on the horse-trough. I noticed some body passing with a white coat or some thing white on, and the thought crossed my mind—" You must beprettycool, old man." for the night was cold and had a greatcoat buttoned up round my neck, The person was a black, and he Via barefooted. He wore a Scotch cap, but I did not notice whither he carried anything. He was slouching along. From tbc way in which the prisoner is diessed (guernsey serge trousers aud cap), I believe him to ba the man. He was crossing over to Mrs Giliil lan's comer when I saw him. He con tinned on in the direction of the New North Koad. I saw no more pf him that night.

Mr Holmes (a juryman) here wished to know if Mr Rose was certain this occurred befcre 10 o'clock, because at a quarter past that hour he saw a man in a light blouse and carrying some thing in his hand, walking along the roadjbotween Fairburn'a and Horbert'e. That niun made way for him to pass on his left band.

Frederick William E wing ton, a boy of about 15 years,, deposed: My father's name is Frederick George Ewington, and he is a land agent, residing in the Mount Ros kill road. I live with him. I have seen the spot where the deceased was killed. On Monday evening last I was going home with my mother betweea 9.15 and 9.30 o'clock, and we had to pass within 200 yards of the scene of the murder. We heard two blows and two groans, a groan followiiigeach blow. Wo were turning into the Mount Roskill Koad, and the sounds came from abont the place whero the body was after wards found. We went on home. There win a young lady and gentleman some dis tance behind us, but I don't know who they were.

(Left sitting.)

THE FUNERAL.

The funeral of the murdered man, Henry Louis Rccs, took place .it 3 o'clock this afternoon. The remains were conveyed to the Wcsleyaa cemetery in a hearse. Mrs Kces and her daughter followed at a distance on foot.

CHARACTER OF NEW HEBRIDES NATIVES.

The natives of the New HebiiiiS Group (from one of which the murderer comes— Apia) are recognised as one of the most treacherous races in the South Sea Island?, and many aro the accounts which reach us of their untrustworthy character and the atrocities perpetrated by them. The list of New Hebrides victims is a very long one, and it is only possible to enumerate a fow of the most recent instances in which these natives have, with but little or no provoca tion, ruthlessly killed and tortured ships' crews and other persona visiting the Group. Ono instance is recorded where two gentle meD, Messrs Bell and Scott, who were on a visit to tho New Hebrides, were much interested in the natives, and took a good deal of trouble in teaching them the use of different weapons. Not suspect ing their true character, one of the gentle men was explaining to a number of natives the use of a revolver which he carried, when one of them asked to look at it. Tho weapon was handed to the native, upon which he turned upon the two gentlemen and shot them one after the other. On more than one occasion it has been found necessary to despatch 1.1.M. warships to guc!l disturbances and punish murderers. At South-west Bay, in Sandwich or Vate, about thirty years ago a whaler was taken through the assistance of the Maori portion of her crew, who then amalgamated with the local natives. Some short time ago an attempt was made to introduce the cotton clearing and manufacture of cocoanut fibre industries, but th>s attempt proved fruitless, and after a very short exis tence came to grief—the first through the murders and deaths of the various cotton planters of Tanna and Sandwich, who were the only support of the mill; and the secoud through the inability to obtain enough cocoa-nuts, through the laziness of the natives. Its glories are now departed, and the machinery and stores which once existed are now gone, the old hands have either been killed or left for other fields of labour, and the stores are gradually being left to their original desolation. It has now almost become a recognised fact that nothing will ever civilize these natives. The best that anyone can do for them is to provide them with eatabjea, for they care but little about anything else. As for inspiring them with any religious belief, or creating artificial wants among them—the two certain means of civiliza tion-such is said to bo an impossibility. So long a? the missionary gives them freely, or at slight expense, their few requirements, no long will they tolerate his presence. They will not believe that there is any cs

them impossible to bridge over. While the missionary is among them they are very careful to hide their atrocious deeds, but directly his back is turned they commence openly their murders and cannibalism. The native who has just committed such horrible deeds iv our midst is a native of Apia, New Hebrides Group. Here a few yearn ago the natives seized the son and mate of a labour trading skipper, killing the rest of th-3 boats' crew on the beach in sight of the vessel. Nothing was done to the pri soners that night, but it is related by one who was there at the time that for several hours during the stillness of the night the agonised cries of the two unfortunate whites could be distinctly heard as they were tor tured before being cooked and eaten. And this iff only one of many atrocities of tho same nature chronicled as having been com mitted by the natives of the Api Island.

THE TREACHEROUS APIANS.

Ono of tho most recent and terrible out* rages perpetrated by the natives of these islands is that in which the schooner Daunt less was attacked, the mate murdered, and six men seriously wounded. Tho Daunt less left Levnka on the 15th of August, 1879, with 73 time-expired labourers for tho Solomon Islands. She had on board an Api boy, and on reaching that place he was lauded, and the boats' crow re turned to tho ship. After somo dis cussion on tho pan of tho captain and Government agent, it was decided to recruit a boat's crew at Apia. With this in view a boat returned to the shore, contain ing Mr Stewarrt Fraser, second mate, in charge, Mr Nicholl,| and a crew consisting of three Solomon Islanders. Tho natives spoke in a very friendly way, and Mr Nicholl was asked by them to go and sco tho place where two natives had been re cently shot by a Frenchman. This excited his curiosity, and tho boat was pulled along tho shore with all hands aboard, no one suspecting any treachery. They continued along the coast for some short dis tance, tho natives on shore follow. ing and keeping up a pleasant conversation. On arriving at the spot indicated, tho boat was grounded on the beach, none of its occupants quitting it. Suddenly about a hundred guns wcro iircd at the boat, killing Mr Fruscr, the second mate, tour bullets passiug through him. I'hc rest of tho crew, with the exception of a boy, were all more or less seriously wounded. The natives then made a rush for tiic boat with a view of capturing the occupants, but tho boat was pushed oil' from the shore by tho boy. This afforded Captain Jones, who had heard the firing from tho ship, an opportunity of sending a boat to their assistance, and took tho crew aboard. With the exception ot one shot fired by the Fiji boy, not a single firearm was discharged from either of the boats. The incentive to the outrage appears to be that some short timo previously, atrocities had been committed there by Rome Frenchmen, and tho Dauntlcsß having arrived within a short time of the occurrence, was no doubt viewed by the savages as a legitimate ob ject of revenge. Tho fact of tho vessel not being {manned by Frenchmen doei not appear to havo iv any way influenced tho Apians. They evidently regarded white men of any nationality as answerable for the death of their two countrymen, and accordingly male what they called repri sals on the first boat that offered. Tlnir treachery is the most prominent feature, and it behoves persons who have any deal ings with them in the way of business, or more particularly persons who admit them into dwelling houses as servants, to always keep an eyo on them. They arc never, to judge from all accounts, to bo trusted, and become unmanageable when they secure drink.

THE REVENUE IMPROVING.

CAREFUL investigations made by tho Go vernment into tho state of revenues during the current quarter demonstrate a marked and most satisfactory improvement, tho prospects for tho remainder of the year being highly encouraging. The customs have pulled up arrears mid gone ahead of tho estimate by twenty-three thousand already. Stamps ditto, and all sources of revenue give a prospect of being above the estimates by tho end of tho year excepting railways, but even thesn have picked up so much that it is calculated they will ba not more than £.15,000 short at tho end of tho year instead of £200,000, as was lirst feared ; while tho reductions now going on will probably more than counter balance any dclicicnc/. Jixtensivo reduc tions are still proceeding, and notice him been given to many ollicers to take effect from the Ist proximo.

AUCKLAND ROWING CLUB.

The annual meeting of the Auckland How ing Club was held iv the Wnitemata Hotel last evening. There was a largo attendance The following roport for tho year ending tho 30th inst. was read:—"lv presenting tho eleventh annual report, your committee regret that they arc unable to announce n satisfactory progress during the past season. Several races wcro arranged, but owing to tho apathy shown by members none of them ciime oil. Tho attendance at practice was below the average of tho past year, und several members liave been struck oil' the list on account of non-compliance with tho rules. The roll now consists of ssven honorary and twenty-Jive working members, but it is hoped that the fact of tho Inter colonial Regatta being held at Auckland will infuse uew spirit into rowing men, and add to the members of the Club. Owing to a want of entries the races at the last Auck land Annual Regatta fell through. The Club was represented at the late Ponsonby Regatta in both senior and junior races. In the former race the Club crew canio iv (hit, but wcro disqualified by the umpire, whose decision was accepted. The Club succeeded in winning the junior race, and tho prizes (silver cups) were awarded to the crew. The property now consists of two string-test four-oared gigs, three four-oared gigs, two pair-oar, and two sculling boats, sculls, shed, &0. The treasurer's report, which is attached, shows : Receipts, £62 ; expenditure, £46 12s lOd ; leaving a balance on hand of. £15 7s 2d. Assets, £206 7s 2d; liabilities, nil." The following otlicers were then elected fur the cnsuinii term :—President, Mr J. M. Clarke; Vice-President, Mr H. Urclt; captain, Mr Thos. Henderson, Jan.; trea surer, Mr James Dacro; secretary, Mr John Marshall. The three latter were re elected. Coirinittcc: Messrs A. Aickcn, Dr Oxley, 0. Dacro, W. Black, and G. W. Picice. It was decided that if possible the procession should be held on October IG, aud the captain was instructed to consult tho Ponsouby and North Shore Clubs as to whether the day was convenient for them. Those prescut thought it advisable to have a brass band in attendance on the occasion, but tho matter was not decided upon. It was uleo agreed that, if possible, a race for the five cups eivon by Mr Marshall bo ar ranged to take place after tho procession. Several new members were elected, and alter some other mutters ot minor import mice had been considered, the meeting passed a vote of thanks to the chairman, and separated.

I have always been accustomed to get wbit money I required from the shop. I sent on one occasion for £1 and on another for 10s, both of which sums wero forwarded, but I knew nothing about the business having been sold to Mr Cuthbcrteon, nor was I aware of any arrangement having been made for an allowance.
