THEATRE ROYAL.

"Old BACHELOH3" wao performed on Saturday night to an excellent hou«e, and was most cordially received. An effectivo cast had been made, and the various mem bers of the company played with con siderable spirit. It will be remembered that the Liugards " ran " the comedy with much success on the occasion of their last visit to this city, and the performance of Saturday suffers in nowise by comparison. Mr Lingard played the part of Professor Spirt, the musical old bachelor, with a realish which had a most potent effect upon the risible faculties of the audience. In fact while he was on the stage he kept every one in a most delightful state of titillation. Mrs Lingard made a fascinating Millie Clair (the young widow), and Mr Craig, as her lover, ga»o a very effective support. Mr Overton presented an admirable impersonation of Judge Growler. Miss Adelle as Ada Hope, and Miss Huran asFanny Bush, also merrit favourable notice, as well as Miss Jessie Raymond for Mrs Mouse* Altogether the pioce worked very smoothly, and the audience were decidedly pleased. The historical drama entitled, " Heart and Crown," description of the career of Marie Stewart, up to the period of her flight from Scotland, is announced for to-night. The performance will be under the patronage of the Wellington Football Team.

Inter-Provincial Football Match.

The first portions of the following account of the above event appeared in our late editions on Saturday, but in order to give the report in consecutive order we t«-p«> duco it complete :—

The arrangements for the match aru known aftd aeehi to give mncb satisfaction. The touch and goal lines aro marked in white, and are therefore easily discernible, while the distinctive colours of tho team can be distinguished with equal facility, the Auckland men wearing blue and white and their adversaries black. The match is to be divided into four spells of 27J miuutes each, a breathing apace of two minutes being allowed after each bout, while the following altered mode of scoring has been determined on :—Goal from field, 4 points j goal from try, 5 points ; and try, 3 points ; v jjoal kicked from a try only to count 5 points, the try not to be included. This h tho result of much consideration ou the part of the player's. The Wellington team set out in a drag from the Star Hotel, shortly after 2 o'clock, and in Shortland-atrcct wero mot by the drug containing tho Auckland men. Thence the two vehicles proceeded in company to the Domain, where their arrival {created some stir. Their mimes aud positions are as fol low : Auckland :—T. Henderson (captain), Verity and J. Webster (full-backs), Arneil (three.quarter-back), Wood andßiug (half backs), Carter and Lang (quarto-backs), T. Macky, C. Burgess, Bcale, Biudon. Crox ston, Pilling, Thos. Henderson and William Webster (forwards.) Pilling took Grierson's place. Wellington :G. Campbell (cap tain), Wylio (full-back), A. Thomson and Warbrick (half-b.:cks), Davy (threo quarter-back), W. nnd J. Berry (quarter backs), Hicksou, J. Thomson, Koberts, Cameron, McMaster, Leckie, and Rocnld son. (forwards). Sbarlaud acts as umpire for Auckland and Wright for Wellington. A few minutes after three o'clock Bindon kicked off for Auckland It was badly done, the ball spinning along the ground. Berry received it, and started to run, but was quickly met. A. Thompson then got it, aud made n splendid run, almost reaching tho Auckland "25," and was grandly collared by King. Some quick passing then emmed, after which C. Uurgess and Carter, working well togothcr, carried tho ball woll boyond tho half distance, when Carter played ie into touch. It Was thrown in, and Wood at ouco pounced upon it. Ho essayed to kick, but waa smartly collared, He passed it cleverly to King, who mado a splendid run to the eastward side and well along tho groiiud, gaining considerable distance. Several packed scrimmages then followed, in most of which Wellington had a decided advantage. The ball having been dropped amongst our backs, Verity and Webster simultaneously tried for it, and bungled it badly to a scrimmage inside Auckland's 25. Tho ball was thence worked by a series of scrimmages aud short kicks to the western touch line, whence it was again taken by W. Berry to the centre. There a scrimmage was formed, aud on the ball emerging the Wellington forwards nnd notably, Ronaldson nnd J. Thomson, con voyed it right up to tho Auckland goal and through the posts. For an instant tho chances seemed favourable for a try for Wellington, but C. Burgess averted the danger by falling ou the ball at the critical moment, this being tho first force* down up to this sta^o of the game. Verity kicked out with a high good drop, thus giving the forwards plenty of time to get up, so that Thomson's return was not a good one. After this Wellington in a series of scrimmages woiked tho ball considerably past the centre of the ground, but Carter managed to get ouo 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 tho western touch line, where he passed baok 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 tho superior parsing 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 ot 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 Hying drop at goal from tho half dis tance and sent the ball fairly between the posts making Istscore —4 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 mark which Auckland disputed and the ball was hacked off. Some steady scrimmages were now formed, nothing re markable .occurring—the. ballj goiug in and out ot touch on tho eastern line. Wood gained considerable ground by a long punt into touch. On being again brought into play, J. Berry made a good run across the ground till hard pressed 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, where J. Thomson got a run. Using his strength to the utmost he forced hi 3 way on, and was only stopped by the half-backs, Wood by a good punt recovering the lost ground. Auckland fotwards followed well up till they rcauhed 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 seen in Auckland. Wel lington here worked the ball well in front of the opposite goal, but Arneil by a judicious drop, defeated their intention. Cloaely packed scrimmages be came the order of the time till Carter got another of his long punts, which was promptly returned by Warbrick. The ball 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 a "place," but failed. J. Thomson drove the ball back to Verity, who, instead of kicking, tried to run, nnd was at once collared—thus losing ground. A very fast bit of play by Wel lington forwards took the ball to Auckland "25."

Here desperate efforts were made by Wel lington to score, but Webster got a long drop, which Wylie smartly returned, the ball going behind the goal line, when Verity, instead of touching down, ran out, and was collared on the east touch line. The 1 ball was driven behind Auckland's goal. Verity brought it out, and Pilling following him well up, spoiled the retur.i. Auck land is now playing more uniteuly in tbe scrimmages, while Arneil is dribbling with decided effect. W. Webster here got a long dribble, carrying the ball well past the middle of the Hold, where it was kept some time, Lang makingj|himself conspicuous. Big Thomson continued to make displays of his great strength though Auckland doggedly held her ground. J. Berry and A. Thomson then both made excellent runs—the former being well collared by Carter, and the latter by Ring. Warbrick got a chance of a run, and passed all except Verity, who threw him. Berry then "knocked on" and the ball was called back, and after some fast pass ing and running by Wellington was again forced into Auckland's 25, whence Webster, by a good drop, drove to the contre of the field. It was then worked up the eastern touchline till time was called. Tilling and Davy amused themselves by waltzing on the greensward, while the others resorted to the water jug. The fourth and last bout was commencd by A. Thomson kick ing off from the south end. Arneil returned it dropping iuto touch. Some fast play ou Auckland's part took the ball into Welling ton's 25, where, on the ball coining out of a loosescrimmageßing.nearlysucccededinget. tingatry. Ho'was stopped, however, by A. Thomson, and inch by inch Wellington worked the ball back to the centre of the ground, where Roberts did some good drib bling. From Arncil's return J. Berry got a mark. Warbrick took a place, but kicked wide and Wood returned it. Macky, Arneil, and Bindon here carried the ball right on to the Wellington goal line, and Croxston nearly scored a try, but Thomson managed to touch it down. It was brought out by Wylie, and Verity's return was quick and good. Some clever play by the Auckland forwards again drove the leather into the Wellington 25. A long kick by J. Webster sent it behind, and Wylie, instead of touching down, ran out and dropped it along the touch line. Scrimmages were then formed in the centre of the ground, but some offside piay by W. Berry causod the baU to be brought back. After being hacked |off Wellington drove it gradually towards the Auckland goal, whence Ring, by good for ward play, carried it past the centre flag. There is a disposition on the part of the Wellington backs to play offside. After a good deal of spirited play on both sides, but without further scoring, "no side " was called when the ball was at the Wellington end. The game, therefore, resulted : Wellington 4 1 Auckland ... °

Both victors and vanquished wefe hfenrlily and lustily cheered a* they left the ground, and wh»n Some minutes afterwards they drove off in their drags, followed by ft motley procession of vehicle1?, the popular demonstrations Were renewed. The wearied kftkieta threw their tired and contused frames into the postures oifgrtsate&t Oase, and With undamped spirits ]oined bolster ously in the jovial songs which were started along the route from time to time, while a straggling throng of the youth of Auckland brought up the rear, nird filled up the inter missions With shouts, derisive remarks, and laugb/er,

THE BANQUET.

In the evening, tho rival teams and n large number of visitors banqnottod tit the Star Hotel. His Worship tho Mayor pre sided, supported on his right by Mr Henl dc»on (captain of the Auckland'team), and on his loft by Mr Campbell (captain of the Wellington team), whilo Mr J. E. Mac donald, Judge of the District Court, occupied tho vice-chair. After tho viands and sweets had been duly dismissed, and the customary loyal toasts fittingly honoured, His Worship gave the toast of the evening " Our Guests, the Wellington Football Team." Iv doing so he said the position which ho filled that evening was one of peculiar pleasure for two reasons: tho first was the desirability of affording every possible encouragement to manly outdoor sporta 5 and tho second the duty incumbent upon him as the representative of the citizens to do honour to tho Wellington Football Team. England had distinguished herself for an intense lovo for outdoor Bporta, and they exercised a very important influence on the national character. Whilo it was but natural that they should wish that victory had becu achieved by tho Auckland team that day, yet now that tho battle had been decided against them ho felt sure that they would accept their beating with a good grace (cheers), and display ft right feeling in giving credit to the victors. Ho might be pardoned for drawing a parallel between their defeat and the fate ot tho fabled bird, which when wounded hud its agony in creased on obsorving that tho arrow with which it was wounded was winged with a feather from ouo of its own plumes. (Cheers.) In this case, however, thoro was no bitterness, and, indeed, Auckland might congratulate itself on having lent Welling ton the gentleman who had brought on the defeat.

Tho struggle which many had witnessed that afternoon was typical of the combat of life, aud he hoped that in that wider sphere they would reach the goal of contentment aud happiness. He had much pleasure in coupliug with the toast the name of Cnptaiu Campbell. Band : " The Conquering Hero." Com pany : "Jolly Uood Fellows," and loud cheering. Mr Campbell, in responding, said ho was young to tho duties of Captain, H 0 had twico enjoyed the honor of sharing with the victors in matches against Auckland teams, and hoped this would not bo the last time. He could guarantee the Auckland men a good reception if they went to Wellington. Ho was pleased with tho city aud its scenery and with tho attention they had received, He concluded by giving " the Auckland Football Team, coupled with tho name of Captain Henderson." The toast was drunk with cheers.

Mr T, Henderson, in responding, said ho was sore in various ways—in his knees and hips physically, and mentally at having been captain of tho first Auckland football team who wore beaten on their own ground. He hoped, however, that if an Auckland team ever went South it would retrieve tho lost laurels. He considered it no diagraco to be beaten by such a team as their opponents, and he had no doubt but that the better team won. He trusted the Auckland team would take a lesson from the example of unity of action set them by their opponents. Mr Henderßon concluded by thanking the Wellington team for tho manner in which they had drunk the toast. Jtiuitl " There's a good time coining." The Vico-Chairman (Mr J. £. Mac donald), gave " The Umpires." Ho did not understand tho game himself, but said he folt an interest iv it.

Mr Wright, Wellington Umpire, res ponded. He trusted thoy had given satis faction, and with satisfaction could say that he had never seen a more gentlemanly game of footift 1 than on that day. Mr Sharland, Auckland Umpire, also ex pressed his satisfaction with the manner in which the gatno had been play od. Mr W. J. Hurst garo the toast of the "Mayor and City Council." In doing so, ho remarked thai there had been a maudlin sentiment shown to put down football, but accidents happened in the hunting as well as in the football field. No man had a bettor opportunity of knowing the ability of the Wellington team than he had. for when residing in Wel lington no saw them at play, and took notes, and observed the concert they showed, and their ability iv passing the ball. These things had won them tho vic tory that day; but ho was suro that the Wellington team would admit that thero was courage and pluck in Auckland which in tho battle of life would meet with its reward.

His Worship the Mayor responded. They had many advantages in Auckland for a great city, and he hoped that commercially and in beauty it would continue to advance. He might congratulate Auckland on the soundness of its financial position, and on its roads and footpaths. Councillors Aicken, Thomson, and Crow thcr also responded. The other toasts wero " The Press," pro posed by Councillor Aickin and responded to by the representatives present. " The Ladies," proposed by Mr Verity, and responded to by Mr Roberts. " The Host," proposed by Mr Ooates, and responded to by Mr Davidson. The remainder of the evening waa spent in conviviality.

THE FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY,

(To the Editor.)

Sib,—" Equation's " suggestions anent the improvements in the approaches to the Public Library are scarcely apropos. Why pander about the exterior of the building ? Auckland has not boasted of a free library hitherto, and now that the machine is set going let us rather seek to stock the library with good and useful books, and let the question of iinproTcmeut" in the building be a future one. It has been said by one of the old masters that we " should go into a library as to a hermitage" — and un doubtedly it is one of the beat hermitages the world has. There we can m»ko ourselves familiar with the great men of the past, and heed not the scoff of the fool or the hum drum of this stupid world. There we are safe. Men go to meetings and get hot and excited, perhaps, on the passing of this bill or the carrying of that proposal. The proper place lot them to go is a good library, and that will cool them down admirably. There they will find that these heats and passions of our time must have been before j and when they find that these things have been so often repeated they cease to feel the in fluence of fear, and go out quiet, calm, and tranquil. They see that the mad cries of party spirit, or the scorn of high and low, cannot enter that hermitage. The man who is fond of books is usually a man of lofty thought, of lofty opinions. There is no doubt but that half ths " gossip " and " scandal " of society would perish if ihe books that are rea.lly worth reading were but read. A long discourse is a sore trouble to many. It proves co us, as we readily learn, that "it is worse than a big book " —in the one case you can shut up the book, but in the other you cannot shut up the man.—Yours, &c, ECHEVIN.

SPIRITUALISM V. MESMERISM.

(To tbe Editor.)

Sik,— Those who have lately perused the papers will no doubt have boon surprised by the reports of many Beemtngly miraculous cures performed by Mr George Milner Stephen—curea affected by a force unknown to the majority of Englishmen. Some of our papers here have attributed these mar vellous cures to Bpiritualism, yot few are aware of the true nature of the means em ployed to bring them about. Let anyone read a little work entitled "Curative Mes merism," by Messrs Jackson and Davy, published about 1840, when mesmerism, so to speak, was iv its infancy, or the last volume of Miss Harriet Martineau's auto biography, and they will there find similar cases and similar cures effected by the same agency as employed by Mr George Milner Stephen, viz., mesmerism, or more correctly speaking, animal magnetism. What Is this mesmerism ? Many will ask who have not had opportunities of witnes sing or investigating its wonders. It is that animal electricity which every healthy;and strong man contains in his system in a greater or less degree, aud which in some (many more than are aware of it) is entirely under their control, and can with ease be diffused into the body of any one on whom they are desirous of operating. Every strong and healthy man who ia free from hereditary taint or weakness is capable of nfr>ct;ng s'tnilar cures to Mr Stephens, and ,t-f 'giving lioaitli aud strength to his loss fortuuate|fello rr creatures, Who could not,

with a little though^ recall to .their recol lections cures of thoSe every-day evils— todthache and headachß, by the application t»f another's hand to th 6 affected place! The fevered child is soothed by the band of its mother. Why, tuenj if these things (M be successfully treated, as they are, should wo not try to cure more serious diseases by the same agency ? In Mr Stephen wo havo an instance of one man doing so and astonishing the colonies by hia sitccertseß, Doafneßa caused by cold, ft blow, or the after effects of scarlet fever, or produced by any cause which does not destroy the structures of the oar, can easily be relieved by this Wonderful agency, causing in sOme daaos a complete cure, in others, serving tostrengthen tho affected organs, and considerably in creasing tho susceptibility of the car to sound, and seldom if ever failing to giv« relief. Hearing being restored almost instantaneously in some cases, cases re sulting from paralysis are almost infallibly relieved and often cured, also by this means. These are among the easiest cases which will gi»e way before a patient and undaunted perseverance. Anthony Mesmer, the discorerer of this great power in man, and from whom it takes its name, cured thousands of peopleof allkindsandconditious of diseasos in Paris. Never yet has anyone been so successful as the discoverer himself, and had it not been for his untimely death, Caused by the precipitation of liin carriage oVer an embankment, would undoubtedly have disclosed to the world more than isyot known of his valuable discovery. London at ouo time (if not now) supported by volun tary subscription a mesmeric hospital. Faris is well known for its clairvoyants, used an they are, by medical mon, to detect obscure disoaaos in their patients. Mr George Miluer Stephen attributes his powor to a divine gift identical with that given to tho Apostles in the old days. Aro not all tho gifts mon mttko use of for tlto benefits of their fellow creatures divino? Is not life a divine gift ? That mesmerism was known to tho ancients will, I think, ba acknow ledged by any who read the following extract from a work of tho Rev. Mr Townshcnd's, in nhich ho describes Rome of the stuccoa dug up from Pompoi. They wero taken from a temple, and were, as ho thinks, to instruct tbo people :—" They represented figures of tho met extending a diseased limb, and other figures wore repre souted bending over them with upraised hands—" iv similar positions to thoso which aro assumed by tho mesmerist iv making those passes well known as being indis pensiblo with success. Again, in an ancient play ouo of tho characters is mado to say, " Say, shall I stroke him with my bund till he sloop ?" Let anyone consider these two facts. What other conclusion can bo arrived at than that mesmerism was knownin thoso days, and later mado use of by an iguorant priesthood to advance themselves iv the oyos of a superstitious peasantry. Many fall into the common and grievous error of imagining that mesmerism is tho power of a stronger mind over a weaker. That tho suc cessful mesmerist must be a man of stroug determination and groat fixity of purpose is a fact; but that because he overcomes auother proves his to be tho stronger mind is not so. It is tho influouco of the active mind over tho passive, instances of which may bo daily met with. Neither is it always necessary for tho state of mesmeric coma to be induced to enablo the operator to successfully treat a patient. A person may submit his or her arm to the passes of an operator who, if successful, can prevent the subject from making any use of, or feeling any pain, iv a limb so operatod upon. In the same manner teeth may be painlessly extracted by purely local mesmerism. A good healthy mastiff ia one of the best physicians for a sickly child, whilo employment in and about a cow house will stay the ravages of consumption iv somo men, if not ontiroly disperse tho disease. In conclusion let mo state that tho so-called miraculous cures affected in Australia by Mr Milncr Stephen aro only repetitions of thousands of similar cases which have benu performed within tho hut fifty years. But for the in formation ot thoso who may be. prevailed upon to attempt curative mesmerism, lot them boar this in mind—that they must bo of a strong constitution and in the prime of life, or they may affect cures at the cost of tho destruction of their own health, and perhaps lifo itself.—l am, 11.

Bold Buccaneers.

REMINISCENCES OF THE SPANISH

MAIN,

ALONCI the Spanish Main and the coasts of Central and South America there still linger traditions of the buccaneers who aforelimes mado predatory raids in those regions, and in some localities crumbling ruins still stand as desolate monuments of their cruel handiwork. We have trust worthy accounts aUo of their ravages, wbich aro only too well authenticated by indisputable testimony. Voritable records exist of their fleets descending upon the coasts, sacking plantations, farms, churches and villages, and even levying tri bute upon considerable towns or devot ting them to plunder. Churches and cathe drals were their especial spoil, the riches of the Spanish • American religious houses and sacred edifices being very great. The votive offerings sometimes amount to a considerable treasure; the sacred vessels and the altar service aro often of silver and gold; the statues and images are decorated with rings, necklaces, and crowns of precious stones, and the shrines are also enriched with genie, A familiar illustration of this church wealth may be found in tho cathedral of the City of Mexico, where the altar rail is of solid silver. Another exists in tho cathedral of Fucbla, where the statue of Santa Guada lupo is adorned with necklace, earrings, and finger-rings of diamonds valued at §1,000,000, though this estimate is probably exaggerated. These riches presented temptations to the buccaneers which they yielded to with alacrity, and there most desperate ventures were in assaults upon some well-defended city where a wealthy cathedral was the chief prize. Tho buc caneers of history were subdued and their organizations died out about the cluhc of tho seventeenth century, but tradition continues their existence to a much later period. Their name was

A TERROR ON THE SPANISH MAIN until within comparatively a few years, and sporadic acts of piracy occurring from time to time were atill attributed to Morgan and his men. During the wars with Spain by which the South American States estab lished their independence, about 1821 to 1826, privateering was carried on quite ex tensively in such lawless fashion as to amount in effect to piracy, and the free booters of these wars were also called buc caneers and fillebusteros. Their exploits ate even less distinctly recorded in history han those of their original prototypes, and tradition probably confuses tne deeds of the later age with thoso of tho earlier, so that the legendary accounts of the modern buccaneers are clouded with mists of uncertainty oven more dense than usually hidos what nucleus of truth there may be in such relations. Among thoso accounts there is one that bears tanta lizing the marks of credibility, what though it tolls of tho conventional hidden treasure generally considered evidence of the apoch ryphal character of a legend. This account has been believed to bo at least partially tiue for many years on the western coast of Sourh America, and intelligent people who have looked into the matter have found im partial records verifying certain of the al leged incidents. The story may be summed up as follows : Somewhere about tho year 1823 three pirate vessels, under ono com mand, made a descent upon the northern coast of South America and ravaged the country within reach in true old buccaneer ing fashion, stripping the churches especially of great store of solid plate and precious stones, and laying towns under levy for im mense ransoms in money. They took their time about the work and did it up thoroughly, only leaving tho coast at last to intercept', a Spanish treasure ship, homeward bound from Mexico, FREIGHTED WITH SILVER. They overhauled this galleon in tho Carri bean sea and took possession of her bullion. They were not permitted to enjoy tho fruits of the evil labours, however, as news of their movements had reached tho British West Indian fleet and several men-of-war were sent out after them. Two of the pirate vessels were taken by the cruisers, but thu third, called the Edgecombe, escaped. This was the flagship of the marauding fleet and carried the spoils of the expedition. The Edgecombe was hard pressed, and a vigorous pursuit being organised against her, she fled southward, around Cape Horn, aud ran down the Pacific coast of South America. Here she con tinued her depredations, capturing, among other prizes, a treasure ship from Peru. Tidings of the Edgecombe and her piracies in the Pacific presently reached Panama, and again the ever-ready British frigate was dispatched in pursuit. The chase was a lone; one, and the pirates, finding them selves closely followed, after several narrow escapes, landed on a small, uninhabited island and buried the vast treasure gathered in their harvest of crime. Not long after this the Nemesis, under the red banner of St. George, overtook the outlaws off the coast of Costa Rica. Tho sur vivors of the horde were taken into Panama

and put td trial for their lives. One of the wretches) to save his own neck, betrayed his companions* and by the evidence of the traitdr the " Bdgecrjmbe" crew, tho last buccaneers probably that the Spanish Main will ever be troubled With, were convicted and hanged. Tho survivor will escape to meet a more dreadful fate. He perished miserably within a short time after the execution of his mates, and imagination Can readily picture the horrors of his lot, liko a whip of scorpions driving into the grttve.

Post-Sessional Speeches.

ME MACDdNALD AT GtlSßOflftE,

GISBORNE, this day. Mr Allan McDonald, m.H.R, uu= dressed his constituents on Friday night iv the Masonic ilall. Tile Mayor presided. Mr McDonald reviewed the work of tho session at considerable length. He regretted the Government had dropped all the native measures. He spoke in high terms of praise of His Honor Judge Fiuton for the pains he had taken, and the assiduity he had shown in endeavouring to havo really good measuies passed for deal ing with native land. Had Judgo Fenton's views been carried out, Mr Mac- Donald had no doubt but in a little while all tho land trouble and disputes along the East Coast would have ceased. He scvorcly condemned tho Laud Sales Bill as introduced, aud described the policy of the Government as tho worst yet enunciated. On the education question he was opposed to the preSout extravagant outlay incurred by the Country. Ho believed that persons who were able to pay for tho education of their children should bo compelled to do do. Ho would support, an In como aud Property Tax, was against taxing local industries,condemned the Government, especially tho Atiorncy-Generul, Mr Whitaker, for tho proposed Representation Bill, and bolioved. the question of redistri bution of scats would have to be decided by a Commission appointed for the purpose. The financial proposals of Major Atkinson were tho best that could possibly be brought forward, as it was well known that local subsidies wore to be abolished. After refer ring in ilattcring terms to the Premior and ono or two other members of the Govern ment, aud dwelling ou local matters for a while, atunanimous vote of confidence was passed iv Mr McDonald us a representative for East' Coast.

Professor Tyndall, in his last article, says that the emotions of man are older thau his understanding:, and that the poet who brightens, purifies, and exalts those emotions man claim a position in the world at least as high and well assumed as that of the man of science, because he ministers to different but eanally permanent needs of human uature. The man of science, he thinks, will be able to destroy the glory of the lilies of the field.
