Telephonic Communication.— In answer to the Council's instructions to ob tain information on this subject Mr Louis A. Nathan wrote from London under date Aug. 12th, stating that he had gono into the matter thoroughly, having had two inter views with Captain Shaw, the Superiuten tendent of tho Metropolitan Fire Brigade, and one with Mr Henry Eaton, Superinten dent engineer of the Metropolitan District Post Office Telegraphs, who bus charge of and superintends for the Firo Brigade, their system of telephones and telegraphs Mr Nathan, in his letter, goes on to remark that the Council had not suggested any system which they would require, and as there were a great number of them, selec tion became difficult. In London some four or live systems wore being worked and the Fire Brigade try every new idea that comes out, and meets the approval of the telegraph authorities, but neither Captaiu Shaw nor Mr Baton would recommend any one system as perfect. The telephone had been found not to answer alone, as it could uot always he relied upon, and oo it was used side by side with the telegraph, but the telephone and electric alarm together did not work. He had decided to call upon Messrs Sierneu Bros., Mr Thomas Henley, and Sir Filston Bright, aud lay the Council's requirements before them, they being the beat people for the purpose, and their patents being in use. They would place their systems before Cap tain Shaw, who would decide which was the most suitable for Auckhiud. Mr G. S. Graham had rendered the writer valuable assistance in the matter, and after inspect ing the various plans would explain the different systems in use at London upon his return to Auckland in a few months' time.

The whole of tho new lamp heads procured with the last lot of lamp posts are now used up, aud we have been borrowing from tho Gas Compauy, who always keep half-a-dozea at their works, to be used iv case of emergency where old

lamps are unlit for further use. I would therefore recommend that one dozen new lamp heads be procured, as we do not know the day the ones at the gas works may run out, and there are also new ones beiug erected occasionally. Iv a very short time there will bo none on hand. (2). Some months ago I was recommended and was granted permission to lay down concrete blocks around the lire plugs, as the present stones are very loose and continually getting out of position. I find that under the present circumstances it would be useless to do "so, aa auy repaiis that are necessary to the plu^s require that the present stones he lifted to get ut the ball. This i am told by the turncock is the reault or the valve-boxes lieiug too small, so that the experiment with the concrete blocks cannot be tried unless a few new boxes ot the proper size are made for that purpose. (3) As plans aud specifications are now ready for the City Road Works, I would request the Council to definitely settle whether there is to be one or two paths iv the road. He stated that the road was 21ft wide, and with a path on each side of 3 feet G inches in width, a vehicle roadway of 14 feet more left. (4) Parties interested iv the formation of lower Union-street have agreed to the proposed improvement!) as it ia a very long street; he suggested that this portion be let iv one contract, leaving the upper portion to be dealt,with when the residents consent to have the work done. As it would take some time to prepare the kerbs, tenders might be called for them, and wheu prepared the balance of the works, iucluding the setting of the kerbs, could be let in a separate contract. The public would be put to an inconvenience by dealing with the works in this way.—lt was resolved to take the Surveyor's report, seriatim, and the following items were decided upon :—Re

1 amphcads—that tenders be called for 25 new ones ; re fireplugs—that the Sur veyor be allowed to experiment and make such repairs as he thought necessary ; re lower Union-street —that the money aa recommended be adopted. The report as a whole was then put to the meeting and adopted. Tenders.—The following tenders were received iv answer to advertisement for a supply of street name-plates and house liunibers with samples :—J. Fisher, £51 4s ; J. Henderson, £53 9s ; H. L. Houning, £62 10s. —Mr Aickeu said that neither of the samples sent in were according to specifica tions. He thought the lettering should have been enamellod and the plates properly baked. He would agree to accept Mr Henderson's tender if he would give some guarantee as to the durability for a stated period.—After some further discus sion Mr Henderson's tender was accepted.

Night-Carts.—Two tenders were sent in for the building of fivo night-soil carts—one from Messrs Cousins and Atkin for £325, and the other from Messrs Gee and Potter, which, however, was informal.—The tender of Messrs CouMns and Atkin was accepted.

Kerbing.—Tenders for 200 feet of 12in. kerbing were put in as follows : James Frays, £34 33 4d ; Alexander Archibald, £32"95; James Davidson, £36 Bs.—Archi bald's tender was accepted.

Mr S. Hesketh appeared for defendant, and pleaded guilty under certain circam stances. Sirkett was an intimate friend of the barman, and he called on the score of friendship, when the barman treated his friend. Unfortunately the constable went in at the time and aaw Sirkett drinking. Sub-Inspector Pardy said the statement was not quite correct; Mr Walter Sirkett was uot a particular friend of the barman ; he was a gentleman who had frequently been in the prisoner's dock for several offences; awd Constable Kist, knowing his general character, followed Sirkett, and detected him with a pint of beer. His Worship : Is Mr Sirkett the person who has frequently had lodgings in Mount iidcn? Sub-Inspector Pardy; ho xs, your Worship. His Worship: It appears that Mr Hamley was from home at the time, or he was sure he would not have welcomed such a man into his house. Fined 20s, costs 11s. SELLING PORTER WITHOUT A LICENSE. Samuel Cox was charged with supplying porter to Adolphus Deleware on the 23rd October, without a license to retail the samn.

Detective Jeffery had occasion to visit the house on Saturday in search of bad characters, when lie saw witness and another man drinking porter. Adolphus Deleware, a foreigner, deposed that he went into Cox's restaurant in Queen street on the aay in question. He called for a bottle of porter, which was supplied by Mr Cox, and for which he tendered 2g 6d in payment, and received 6d change. He was in company with his countryman Loredou.

To Mr Tyler : He was in the inner room, six or seven yards from the door. The place is divided into stalls. To Sub-luspector Pardy: He and his friend had a bottle previously, but did not know who paid for it.

Adolphe Loredon went with his friend to Cox's oyster saloon on the 23rd instant. Could not understand English. Mr Cunningham interpreted in tho French language, and elicited that he went to the place after dinner. Was very dry. Wanted some beer. Spoke to defendant, who took the money and went out of tho room, and brought in the bottles of beer. Believed he went into the kitchen for the beer.

To Mr Tyler : Did not know whether he went into the street. Did not follow him. Saw him go out by the doorway. Returned in five or six minutes. Did not see him return.

Detective Jeffcry deposed that on Satur day last he went to defendant's house and found certaiu persons there who were wanted. The witnesses were sitting at a table drinkintj porter. He was accom panied by constable Jones. He had pre viously beeu watching the houso for some time. He challenged Cox for supplying beer without a license. He replied that he had fetched the porter from outside. He told him he had done nothing of the sort, as he must have seen him. Cox then admitted that he sold a little porter but no spirits. He then found nine bottles in a little room at the back of the room in which the men were sitting. Tho brands were fictitious. Found four bottles of ale and five of porter. To Mr Tyler : He said ho got it from tho Thistle, subsequently hi said he got it in High-street. To Sub-Inspector Pardy : He said he got the beer from Bindon's store some days previously. Constable Jones corroborated.

Mr Tyler addressod tho Court in defenco, and called defendant.

Famuel Cox deposed that the men wanted a bottle of porter. He went out and bought one, but before placing it beforo the Frenchmen, he went to a back room tor a corkscrew, openeil tho bottle, and gave them sixpence in cbango, Ho then went ou opening oysters. Detective JelFroy and Constable Jones then came in and took a glass, handing it over to Jones. Mr Jeffrey then said, " Ginger, my lad, you must not sell porter in this way." Ho then stated the facts to Jeffrey, but he would not receivo tho truth, adding " I'vo been watching you," and then he searched tho house, and found bis atoro of alo und stout.

To Sub-Inspector Pardy : Ho went out quietly. Crossed ovor into High-street. Went to liindon's. Oot tho portor and returned with it. Called at tho butcher's and got 21 bs. of steak. Could not swear ho got it at Bindon's. It might havo been at Mr Hamley's. Had quite escaped his memory. Ilia mind wns upon tho steak. (Laughter.) Really cau't say whero I got the bottle. To Mr Tyler : I'vo quito forgotten tho place. Do not wish to screen tho seller. His Worship said defendant's momory was good in respect of tho corkscrew and tho eh mgc, but the beer had ovaporated.

Information was received yesterday of another discovery of auriferous quartz in the A-toha district. Mr O. D. Grant, received from a friend of his on the ground, a parcel containing about 30 lbs. weight of splendid looking stone, having bands of gold running through it. TLe stone was taken to the warden, who pronoudced it the most promising looking stone he had seen from the district. He made a note of the discovery, and the name of the discoverer. The stone was afterwards on view at Mr 1). R. Gellou's office, and attracted con. siderablc attention.

The prospector's Aroha quartz leader gave one pennyweight three grains from 95 pounds of stone. The assay value is £2 17s per ounce. This is very satisfactory, as no gold was seen in the stone, which was hungry looking.
