POLICE COURT.—THIS DAY.

(Before J. E. Macdonald, Esq., R.M.) MARIA PRICE.

This person, against whoso name was recordedover2oconvictionsin the chronicles of the clerks of the Court, was again brought up on a charge of inebriety. Maiia pleaded guilty ; she had taken too much. Constable Dews found the young Woman kicking in y ictoria-street. Fined 5s and costs. JISHEUMEN. Johu Lomey, a fisherman, appeared iv answer to a charge ot committing a breach of tho Fish Protection Act 1577, by netting a large number ot fish, he not being licensed uuder the regulations of the said Act, on the 10th inst. Frank Barber was charged with a like offence uuder the same Act. Mr Tole appeared in defence, and pleaded not guilty. Sub-Inspector Pardy opened the ca3c, and said that as numerous complaints bad been made against persons in the habit of fishing without a license, nud these cases were brought for the purpose of preventing such acts.

Mr Tole said that tbo fishery in which defendants were charged with catching fish ought to have been stated. Sub-Inspector Pardy said it was in the Auckland district.

Mr Tole said it might, therefor**, be at the Thames.

His Worship said the whole of the waters of the district might be classed as one fishery; had these been divided into several fisheries, then defendant's case might be prejudiced by the seeming omis sion. The information might be altered from the indctiuite to thodefiuite article.

Mr Tole said it was too late to amend the information.

Sub-Inspector Pardy said it was but fair that defendants should take out a license like other fishermen, aB those persons who took out licenses weio dissatisfied at seeing others enjoying the aame liberty without expense. Mr Tole contended there had been no infraction of the law, as m offence had really been committed. Sub-Inspector Pardy said unfortunately the man who had complained had cleared out. He did not think it would be fair to separate the defendants, as they had been charged together. His Worship : You regard them as bro thers in adversity, I presume. Sub-Inspector Pardy -. Yea, your Worship. I hope, however, as the caso must break down, the act being unworkable, that defen dants will have the good sense to take out licenses.

His Worship said hu had his opinions on the matter, but there was no Dcccssity, under the circumstances, for giving expres sion to them.

Defendants were dismissed, ON THE LINE.

Samuel Boyes was charged with a breach of the Public Works Act, 1870, by trespas- Bing on the Mercer and Tc Awamulu rail way, near the Parnell tunnel, on the sth inst.

In this case the summons had not been served upon defendant. This was all the business,

One informal tender was also received. Mr Purcell's tender waa accepted, Messrs Larkins and White's deposits being retained till he should signify^his consent to perform tho work. Whahf at Ponsonby.—Mr Mascfield moved, "That the engineer be instructed to report the additional length to present plan and costs for wharf at Ponsonby, to give three feet depth of water at low water." He said that £200 was to have been ex pended in this direction, but that only gave a wharf with eighteen inchos ot water while nothing less than three feet of water would suit. The motion was carried.

Committees,—Captain McKenzie moved, "That all existing committees be dis charged ; that Messrs Masofield, Daldy, Brown, Waddel, Compton, Robinson, Thompson, and the mover be appointed as a Works and Endowment Committee ; that Messrs Stone, Eaton. Boylan, Morrin, Aickin, and the mover bo appointed a Fiuance 'Committee.—Agreed to. —The meet-ing was then adjonmed.

Judge Williams on Jurors' Troubles.

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)

DUNEDIN, this day. In an address to the Grand Jury' at Lawrence yesterday Mr Justice Williams expressed his regret that such a largo number of Grand and Petty Jurors had been summoned to try casos which could have been disposed of in the District Court if it were not for the technicality involved, and the defect in the law. The ease was that of Arthur O'Neill, fir fraudulent bankruptcy. The prisoner was found guilty on all the counts. Tho Judge deferred sentence, as doubtful whether the evidence taken before the trustee in bankruptcy was admissable. The prisoner was liberated on bail.

Burned to Death.

[PElii UNITED TEESS ASSOCIATION.]

HOKITIKA, this day. Constable Stephenson, stationed ut Kai ncri, reported thia morning tbe horrible death by burning of a woman named Mar garet Hutchinson, and her iufaut child four months old. The particulars are as follow : —" David Hutchinson stated to him tbat his • wife aud child bad been burned to death the night previous at their house, ou Tucker Flat, a abort distance from Kaiucri township. The constable visited the place, and found the remains of a body. Both legs and one one arm were burned away and the head partly consumed. No trace of the infant could bo found. The houso con sisted of two rooms only. At 11 o'clock last night David Hutchinson returned home from Knnieri, and found hia wife lying on a stretcher in the front room, and the baby in a cradle alongside tbe stretcher. No conversation took place between the husband and wife, and the former wont into the back room, where there were five chil dren asleep. He thon retired to rest, leav ing his wife and baby in tbe front room, in which room there was a little lire, and a lighted kerosene lamp on tho tabic. At abont 3 a.m. he was awakened by a glare oi light and smoke. He called to his wiio, but got no reply. He then rushed into tbe front room, aud found the roof and side walls all ablaze. He shook his wife, but she never attempted to move. He could not get to the front door, which was burn ing. He ran back to the bed-room, raised the window, and had barely time to put out the five children, who escaped. By that time he found it impossible to get iuto the front room. He and the neighbours en deavoured to put out the fire, but their efforts were unsuccessful. The house and contents were entirely consumed.

Mining News.

(From Our Own Correspondent.)

COROMANDEL, Monday. A NEW claim called the Union Jack has just come co the frout as a gold producer, during the last few days, situated ou the Tokatea range towards the Plutus Battery ; the same spur has been previously in occu pation of such claims as tbe City of Auck land, New Green Harp, Anchor, Quinton's, and such like ; hitherto, however, the work ings have been confined to stringers and droppers going to and from a big reef, which is known to carry its way through tbe country for a considerable distance, and which contained patches only of gold. The present proprietors, after prospecting among these for tbe past nine months, just but lately turned their attention to the big reef, and continued one of the old drives turtber ahead. Here they discovered the gold in tbe stone, some pieces, as much as a man can lift showing strong blotches of gold. There are but few miners on the field who have not inspected the reef during tbe past week, and the general opinion seems to run current that nothing has been discovered to equal this in Coromandel since the Tokatea reef was first found. A very large number of tons can be produced daily from the reef-suilicient to keep a battery at full play, and it only rests wi'h the proprietors of three different baitcries now idle, viz., the Bismarck, the Plutus, and the Nil Dcsperanduni, to shepherd and to foster the development of this claim should it require Buch aid.

Tokatsa.— The mining manager re ports -.—"The rock in No. 7 level being similar to what has been passed through ; at times hard boring and bad shooting, then changing for a few feet to fair working ground. The contractors have driven 13ft. during the week, cutting two small leaders, one about three inches, the other about one inch in thickness. Quartz stringers and small veins are becoming more frequent, as tlie level goes forward towards tho channel of country we arc driving for. Thodo's party of tributers crushed 1831 bs. of specimens on Tuesday for a yield of 94 ozs. of retorted gold. They continuo to break out stuff from the old stopes, intending to make up a parcel of 70 or SO tons for the uext crushing. Wells' and Dick's parties arc still prospecting on small leaders con taining a little gold, but too poor to pay. Horni brook is winzing on a leader from the right hand branch, carrying fair prospects. Knox is stoping with a view of picking up the rnn from Fcnton's old workings. Success G.M.Co's Claim.—The road is being put in order to enable this company to crush the stuff on hand at the Corby battery. When the weather takes up again the carters will commence operations. Success Gold Mining Company.—The following report from Mr Peter Held, mine manager, has been received at the office :— " I have finished the block ol ground of which I made mention in my last report; it was about 35 by 20, including the level. I did not fake out the second stope going north owing to the hardness o£ the ground, and the reef being pinched, this block did not tHrn out so well as I expected, although in places very good prospects were obtained. The No. 3 level has carried gold about 60ft. (very good in place) and I would suggest for your consideration the advisability of putting in the No. 4 level, which would fairly test tbat part of your mine whore the gold is, and where I would expect tho ground more regular, and there would be about 30ft. of backs obtained. There is about 12 tons ot quartz on hand ready for the battery, which I intend to get down this week if possible." Pkide of Tokatea.-McDonald and Bo.yers' tributes are turning out good stulf. Both crushings are likely to give handsome returns. Royal Oak.—McSweeney has a few pounds weight of specimens from his tri bute. The mine manager reports the stopes looking well, and the reef improving iv appearance, and thinks tl good patch may be come upon soon. INVERNESS. —This claim, adjoining the Pride of Tokatea, has about 200 pounds of good specimens on hand, and will commence crushing immediately.

THE TAILORS' STRIKE,

(To the Editor.)

Sir, —Allow me to direct your attention and that of the police authorities, to the persecution which some of my employes sullbr at the hands of. certain pcraona (which I will namo if necessary) who belong to tho Operative Tailors' Society. This society, to gain some selfish end, wish to compel those men to quit my employ, and because they havo sturdily refused to do so, and thereby countenance a move ment on the society's part which they do uot approve of as being unfair lo their owu iuterest as well as mine. Thoy arc subjected to gross insult by these mis creants belonging to the above society, who try to heap ridicule and otherwise molest them on tlie street to such an extent that one of them had to claim protection tho other evening of a policeman, while an other had to seek Batety iv llight. Thoy have perpetrated a still greater outrage on a man who had been in my employ, but being a member of this society he had very reluctantly to quit his situation. Being a comparative stranger, ho therefore thought we were iv tho power of this society, but after being idle for several weeks he came to seek re-employment, and upon being told ho would have to resign thia society first, he gladly decided to do so, alleging at the t,aiue time that their action was uncalled for, etc., aud that he could not afford to roniain idle on tho pittance they allowed him, to keep up a strike which ho i had no sympathy with, promising to como to work next morning. Hut the afternoon of the same day, his wife came to me in a pitiful state, begging me to excuso her husband on her account, as they had threat ened him if he quitted their society and came to work for mo they would mako the place too hot to hold him. She was therefore afraid that they would do him bodily harm. This poor man is therefore compelled, through fear of hia person and property, to remain idle, thereby ruining liis own prospects and that of a largo family. I bring those facta beforo you bo that those honest, hard-working men, whoso families aro depending ou their exertions, may havo the protection of the police authorities, nud not be subjected to tho insults of men who forget they are living iv a civilized community.—Trusting you will give this space iv your valuable journal.— I am, Sec, M.

NIGHT SOIL CONTRACT.

(To the Editor.)

Sir,—The proposod arrangement of the City Council in providing the wholo of the plant for tbe carryiug out of a coutract for the removal of night soil from the city, is virtually placiug a heavy, iudiioct tax upon tboso not requiring its use, or who already pay lor a water supply for this purpose, and to follow the Government method of placiug additional indirect " Custom's taxes " will be the more likely to escape criticism, or the consideration it is entitled to. The plunt will probably cost from £400 to £500, and on the piiuciple usually fol lowed of giving tenders to the lowest bid, will doubtless require to be entrusted to those who wilt uot bo very particular as to the usage it may receive, and entail con siderable cost tor repairs. Ttue a bond may be taken, but who shall be answcrablo for breakage being the result of accidents or otherwise. Haviug gouo to tho outlay of a plant, is thero any certainty that any great saving will bo cHedcd. At the pre sent time tha charge a are considered high, but I believe it is admitted that au un pleasant business is well and satisfactorily managed, and few if any complaints have reached the public cars. Tho fact thut a respectable person managed the work well and faithfully was a guarantee, so far as the previous contract went. Can wc be assured of aa much for the proposed new method of dealing with this matter? A man who is required to put his capital into plant, will find it worth his while to attend to his business nnd to endeavour to give satisfaction, even if he docs make some money out of tho investment ol bis capital in plant and capital, &c Shall wo be assured ot as much care and satisfactory disposal of the night soil of the city when "the contractors have all material found for them out ot tho rates? These are questions worthy of consideration ere the city becomes committed to a large expen diture.-Yours, K.W.M.

SECULARISM.

(To tho Editor.)

Sir,—The all-potent though unexpressed factor in the oft-recurring demndd for Bible reailing, &c., in our public schools is found iv the fact that parents, ministers, aud teachers arc powerless to stem the growing rulliinism ot youth reared on "Bible prin ciples," so-called. Weakly, rebelling against the discipline needful though pain ful to form tho character, the generality of men have no clearly defined principles of action for their own guidance, nor for the guidance of others. Hence, in a frantic effort to catch, however impotently, at any straw that otters a palliative to the con cieuce, a cowardly attempt is mado to get rid of personal responsibility by throwing it upon the magic power with which tho Bible still stands accredited ; utterly ignor ing the one eternal fact stamped iv unmis takable language upon all nature, and all revelation from beginning to end, viz., the tree is known by its fruit—the parent is responsible for the child; and farther, that good seed must be sown in good, i. c., pre pared soil, if it is to bear good fruit. In other words the child must bo won to a loving appreciation of the light and the true at 'home, or it will not be done at school, 'it is worse than useless to attempt to teach religion by rote, parrot fashion. Uh ill-starred child taught in such a way ! And'if not thus taught, is Christianity in dan. ger of dyingoutof the world ? Not in the very least. The Church may go; dissent may go, and but for their parade days the world would lose little perhaps. But high ahove all creeds and controversies lives tho Christ of history, aud he shall presently be " lifted up " if not by man, by woman. Eor the day is coming when our halls of legislature shall resound with the loved name of Christ, as woman, strong in his energising might, Bhall hold him up to tho admiration and imitation of men until they desire to become like him. Why should the wisest of men be banished from Buch au assembly ? It is just where he should be, enthroned on high. Yes, man shall have sense, if he will not have sentiment. He is human, and plastic in woman's hand, notwithstanding that he fancies he will not tolerate this, that, or the other form of dictation—doubting its possi bility simply because no master mind has as yet arisen to defy all precedent aud utter truth for the love of it. Give supremacy to the moral and intellectual nature over the animal—in woman especially—and she shall yet stand on thc.lloor.of the, House and wring the common heart of the nation like a sponge—wring tears of blood from it, though it would appear to have turned into " hard cast" almost. She sees, as man has failed to see (or licensed infamy had been impossible) that the indulgence of the pas sions is death to a condition of individual and national happiness and prosperity.

(To the Editor.)

Slß,—Bishop Cowie and a lot of reverend gentlemen are very anxious for the future ot the labouring classes. As one of the labour ing classes, 1 beg to thank them for their good intentions, and sincerely hope they will not succeed. The Church has for 1800 years had the education of the people in their bands, and the result is, up to the nineteenth century, two-thirds of English and Irish cannot read. Yet the same Churcli of all sects have taught savages in ten years to read, taking particular care that the ir reading should be useless to them, by first translating two, or at the most four books, ancient, of course, from English to a language that haa no writing. Savages always have the true pillar — a priest with a gibberish or temple—none but tbe elect enter; and mystery—every village has its own language. The "Tablet," edited by Bishop Moran, talks just the same as Bishop Cowie's crowd. The "Tablet" says Roman Catholics are not properly represented, but we don't intend to Bhow our hand till the time comes. Bishop Cowie's crowd may get half a loaf, aud in time will get the whole. Bishop Selwyn shifted his dear savages from Aucklaud, where they might be demoralized by associating with low whites, to Norfolk Island. I will just tell you how a miracle is manufactured. Last January I was lying at TongUonia and a woman bolted from her master, and came on board one dark night. Next morning her master came alongside and offered a pig first and run up to live. 1 told him white men did not buy or sell women. If she liked to go she might go, but if not stop. Well, there was every in dication of a hurricane ; in fact, there was a nurricaue blowing. We only got the squalls ; so a priest got yelliug and invocat ing all night to make a big wind to blow the ship ashore. Had the big wind come, on 1 the ship gone ashore, of course it would h ivo becu the priest.—l am, Sec, *■ The Lunatic.

WHANGAREI.

(From Our Own Correspondent.)

Even the weather was propitious, and tho consequence was a large number availed themselves of the treat provided for them. As a whole tho concert was tho beßt we have been privileged to hear for a long time. Miss Ruat, who appeared to be iv capital voice, Bang splendidly, and was very happy in her choice of songs. Mrs Cubitt, being very nervous, did not do herself justice. The glees and part songs by the choir were given with spirit, aud formed a pleasing chango iv tho pro gramme. Mr T. Ramsay, who had kindly come down from Auckland to assist, Mr McCready, a gentleman lately settled in Whangarei, and also the worthy con ductor, Mr C. Lee, each supplied hia quota, and each in turn were higlily applauded, as they woll deserved, whilo Mr G. C. Walker, who is a host in himself, created quite a furore by his song "The Girl in Regent's Paik," aud electrified the audience by his admirable caricatures of many of the young men of tho district, supposed to have replied to the advertisement of " Wanted, a Partner for Lifo," who, to their credit, be it said,;took it all in good pait, aud enjoyed the fun as well a3 the general public, even though some of the hits were pretty hard. Tne lady and gentlemen who constituted the band greatly contributed to the success of the concert by their ndmirablo eclectiona. The amouut reali-cd after the expenses were paid amounted to £16 la l_d, which was paid into the Bank of New Zealand on Friday morning, and a copy of the fol lowing letter was forwarded to the Rev.
