NAPIER,, this day, JOCKEY CLUB GRIEVANCE.

A monster petition is being got up praying the Government to cancel the recent order in Council appointing members of Jockey Clubs Committee members of the Domain Hoard for the old race-course reserve. For.years tho , reserve has been in the handa of the Jockey Club, ami not used for a public recreation ground. From this constitution the newly-created Board fear that tho town will lose what in other hands would be a valuable park.

Greatest indignation has been expressed at tho advice which actuated Government iv tho matter. Tho petition prays that tho reserve bo visited in the corporation. The Napior I 1 Herald " says the whole thing is a squabble between tho ltacing Clnb and the Jockey Club. The "Telegraph" contra-' dicta this statement, ami says the noxt elections for Napier -will hinge on this reward, which tho town has received for supporting Government.

WELLINGTON, this day. Tho boating season opens to-day. Upwards of SO fishing licenses were issued by the Acclimatisation Society. Tho ship Opawa brings ten singlo men, and 02 single women, all nominated by 22 persons. : , i

THE REDUCTIONS.

In order to disabuse the public mind that there is anything liko favoritism in making tho reductions among the inspectors and sub inspectors, Colonel Header, Commissioner of Constabulary, baa furnished me with an official return of the names and date of appointments of officers to whom notice has been sent, offering them the alternative cither ofacceptiaga reduction, or leaving the sei vice with compensation. The list is as follows : —

Inspectors : Moore, Ist July, 1873; Thomp son, Ist July, 1873 ; Fox, Ist July; 1873 ; Mallard. 23rd January, 1875; Kiely, 7th May, 1875; Feast, 28th June, 1575. Sub- Inspectors : Kenny, 9th June, ISG9 ; Bulleu, 14th March, 1870 ; O'Donnell, 10th Sept., 1872 ; Uoodall, 18th June, 1873 ; Pardy 17th November, 1875; Smith, Ist May," 1877. The return shows that length of service was only the consideration in deciding on' the reduction.

CHRISToaURCH, this day, THE STABBING CASE.

The- perjury c"8? againat \Vatt and Murphy has been adjourned till October 26.

Charles Johnston, the man who was. ac cused of stabbing the landlord's brother and night porter of the Whitehart Hotel, was committed for trial. There was a good deal of discrepancy in the evidence, the accused having apparently been in the hotel at halt-past 12 a.m., while the prosecuting evidence sought to show that the row took place about 11 o'clock, the time when the hotel'should be oloaed. The Magistrate commented on this, and hinted that a prose cution for perjury might very well arise out of it. Thopolico were instructed to watch the evidence given on the subject at the Supreme Court.

Some days ago a man named Pearse was shot in the knee while walking on the bank of the Avon. His position has now become en |>ro«irl»«o lUai ufs uupuaiuuus were mxm by the K.M. Three lads supposed to have been concerned in this miscellaneous shoot ing were arrested to-day, charged with in tent to do grievous bodily harm.

AN ANCIENT WALK.

PfiDESTRTAKISM "EXTRAORDINARY; —THE Greatest WAtk on Record. Bearing upoa the walking mauia, the fol lowing comes apropos : — • Brother Bell, of the Colored Bethel Con grcgatiou, a few nights since at a prayer rneetibg, took occasion, in the courre of an exhortation upon the duties of life, to fire a passing shot at the walking mania, now so prevalent, and developed some facts in rela tion to pedestrian feats, that seem hitherto to have escaped notice. Ife said ; "My beloved bredren and sisters, —Dar is one ting I'm bound to say to you befo' I close de exercises dis nite, dat is, don't you take no stock in dis here walkin' business. Let dem wite men and wimmin alone. Don't you spen' your money or your pre cious time nmnln' round after them ; and for the Lord's sake an' your own, don't you try to make fools of yourself by tryin' to do like wise.

CAUTION TO THE PUBLIC.

(To the Editor.)

Sib,—l think it ia high time the public were pat on their guard against a class of Yankee Bible-sellers, who are going about bouncing weak-minded womeu into paying £4, 10s for an inferior article with plagiarisms from English authors. The whole thing is a fraud, and cannot be too severely depre-' cated. They delude women into signing the order book by misrepresentations, tak ing precious good care not to go to their husbands, or when refused by the husbands they go to the wives. By this means silly women are over-persuaded to pay 90s for a Bible out of monies they ought to pay to their butchers, and it would do good if some man taught these gentlemen and the women too, that the written undertakings of the latter are invalid at law. A case has come under my notice where the wife said she was " compelled to sign the book, and the man went on like a madman."—lam, i&o-., X.Y.Z.
