St. Stephen's Church Bazaar.

THE OPENING.

AT uoon procisoly, His Worship the Mayor entered the Baaaar, accompanied by liov. D. W. Runciinan, aad a fow minutes later ho formally opened it. Us spoke os follows :—Ladioa nnd gentlemen,—lt is un necessary that I should detain you at any length on the occasion of opeuing tliia bazaar. It is well known that undortakiu^s of this character have usually for their aim the reducing or wiping out of tlie debt on churches and public institutions, aud this one in no exception ti the rule. The ncnt and comfortablo church of St. Stephen's, Ponsonby, has cost, including the ground od whioh it stands, something like £1600, and of this, £600 has been paid, leaving in round numbers, a balance of £1000. The promoters of the bazaar confidently anti cipated that, by this nieanc, they will bo able to reduce that sum by a considerable amount. The in junction to " Owe no man anything" it will be admitted is applicable to and bind ing upon churches as well as private indivi duals, and it is a healthful .sign in both when tho being ia debt produces an uncom fortable feeling which leads to vigorous measures for tho purpose of getting riil of it. This form of effort is justifiable on many grounds, and particularly as affording an opportunity to many who find it incon venient or impossible to give money to render good assistance by substituting the cheerful nnd_ willing labour of their haftds. To the ladies, including thu numerous friends in Auckland and in the old country, who have given valuable contributions, must be rendered, in unsparing; measure! credit for-having produced, made up, nnd brought .together so large and' Varied A collection of choice, elegant, and use* ful articles r, a we now see before us. I think I '.nay say that, notwithstand ing, tho difficulty of valuing: ittariy things-, which, iv addition to the ma. tcrici'is, have bad a considerable, amount Ot labour bestowed upon thorn, the ladies h*v« made a genuine endeavour to affix reasonable prices, such as will provn fair to the purckaacr and yet lead to a erediUWu ' result. It now only requires tho generous public to patronise their efforts, and, iv securing these truly handsome articles, re coivo therewith tho satisfaction of knowing (hat they bavo assisted a good cause, and succeeded in lightening the cares and anxiety of the ladies by adding substanti ally to the weight of their cash-boxes. I havo now much pleasure in declaring St. Stephen's Bazaar formally open. This wi>" the only ceremony that took place.. ■ The bazaar inaugurated at noon to-day by His Worship tho Mayor (T. Peacock Esq.) is Huperitr in every respect to any bafcaar of previous years which have been' held in this city. The bazaar wa3 designed for the single purpose of aiding the fu,nds for clear ing off the balance of debt upon St Stephen's Presbyterian Church, Ponaonby. The Pori sonby ladies attached to Mr Runrsimao's church have been studhusly and systemati cally at work for 12 months past, in order that theic should bo no obstacle in the path of snecess. The handiwork oE the Pon sonby ladies, significant of persevering in dustry in the way of progress towards tho honorable attainment of a praiseworthy object, namely a free church, immediately strikes tho eyes of visitors on entering the bazaar from Queen-street. The Ponsonby ladies, few in number, have devoted all their spare time and more, in preparing for this high-clais bazaar. On looking ronnd thi visitor is a toniahed at tho almost incre dible collection of all kinds of fancy, useful, and artistic articles presented at the. shrine of St. Stephen, the patron saint of the church at Ponsonby. Along the ceilings wnl round about in snitable places ferns and such flowers ai the season affords arc tastefnily arranged. The farthermost room is under the charge of Mrs Rnncimnn, and is full of curios, elegant tablos.pa-lour goods, and ornaments of every conceivable kind, somo ef gre<tt value. Iv Mrs Kuociman's depart ment is a central table, nnd four others •apparently representing tho latitudes. Among the more valuable articles we ■noticed agipsy table in silk work, presented l>y Miss Morpetb ( a' fender stool, by.Mrs John Oxley, and a bracket and cushion by Mrs D. Oxlcy ; a case made of native wood, by Mr Norrie; a fine ottoman, very elegantly workcdjScnt to Mrs Kunciman by a lady-friend living in Melbourne. The Mi-sos McKenzie also contributed some valuables. Mrs Bain, of Whangarei, gave a splendid white crochet quilt, which was much 'admired ; also, a finely ornamented sofa blanket, by, Mrs Runciman. hi the inner compartment,'divided into two—one .for colonial ladies' work, and the other to work imported from the land of Bruce, beyond the shining Tweed—the great number of pictures, scrap books, toy 3, goods,.cuildreas' apparel, Colonial and Scottish, wa3 quite be wildering, and beyond the possibility of enumerating in a hasty and necessarily brief sketch. ' The articles from the ladies of Kov Mr Kuncimau's parish Iv Scotland —where he laboured for twelve years — contributed munificiontly to the StStephen's bazaar ; their contributions alone under the " Homo " invitation were estimated at £200 ill valne. The contents of the bazaar is i fairly estimated at £700, although some consider that £800 would be nearer the mark, while the church building debt is set down ;'t a thousand pounds, so that if the hope of the congregation should bo happily realised in the three days, tlije debty will be reduced to a small amount. We noticed one table loaded with Island; cariosities; all kinds of shelli, baskets of curions forms after the native mind, corals, modeljcaaoes.representationsofwildanima's, and imitations of the wonders of nature in her. uncultivated recesses in savage islands. These were presented by Captain John Mackenzie. Chronological trees, map?, and very interesting, scrap-books,'' were noticeable, some of the pictures in the latter being rare; A very handsome silk-(lowered cushion, declicatcly worked by a Pon sonby lady, was among the choicest ot the drawing-roam ornaments. A number of' valuable paintings were also exhibited ; some of them of considerable valne ; also, a onlendidly worked chair by Mr3 Stewart. Many citizens have contributed towards the snecess of the bazaar, and to their and other contributions we will attend in our next notice; merely mentioning that Mrs H. Somervill presides at the refreshment stall, and the upper floor is under the management of Mr Parsons, and to-night there will be amusement and some thing calculated to gratify the taste of, all who may be disposed for a pleasant hour, ''li.'-o'j.'.iV. •'.,•■ i i ■'.in ri lie ■-"• r.n • '<

Overland to England.

(By, a Wandering Aucklander.)

;'!!'[''.■." -.'''.• -■'-London;iAugusts. ■; UUKINO last Week a very interesting, exhi bition has been held: at the Horticultural1 Society's gardens by the British Bee Keepers Association, one Of their numbershewing the manner of driving bees, and other matters interesting to all bee-keepers. The Associ ation was formed in 1874rfor the purpose of assisting the cottager of England to acquire a knowledge of keeping bees profitably, and to send their honey to market in a better form, and they are.every year increasing the number ot prizes and the sphere of their labours. One cottager .who was ex hibiting has this year made £200 out of his honey. • I send you a catalogue, which gives a good idea of; the class of hives most in favour in England. THE ELECTRIC LIGHT. The electric light seoms to have mado no headway in England, but rather to have receded in the estimation of the public. I went to the Thames Embankment which is lighted by the Jablackoif Cimpany, but although the light is very fine it is most uncertain. Sometimes it is scarlet, some times violet, and then almost white; alto gether it flickers so much that it gives you tho idea that it will go out at the next change. The gas looks very, yellow com. pared to it; biit when you look at the lamps of Mr Guff, in Waterloo place, you feel that electric lighting is a long way from being an accomplished fact, THE WARM WEATHER. The weather has been very warm in Lon don for some time, and you really feel it to bo almost as oppressive as it is in Auckland in tho summer. Fashionable people are clearing out as fast as they can for iicotlaud aud the Continent, but, I am sorry to say, not many for Ireland. Thiugs are so un settled there that people don't care to g°- NEW ZEALAND BORROWING. "Truth" this week has a stinging article against the contiuued borrowing of New Zealand, which has caused a very uneasy feeling in the Money Market. Mr Labouchere, the editor, is a very well in- j formed man, and is regarded as quite an nuthority on money matters ; besides which he is now a member of Parliament. He compares New Zealand and Victoria a? being in pretty much the same position, but

£14,925,707, and imports £16,161,800, nnd her public debt lees than £20,000,000, whereas Now .Zealand has a debt of above £26,000,000, and counting all her inhabi tants—Chinese, half-castes, and persons on shipboard, only 414,412. Hor imports are £8,755,663, and exports Only £6,015,525. That New Zealand s revenue ordinary is £2,328,T53, nnd territorial £1,838,563, while the ordinary expenditure was £4,365,275. Ho says also that there is an exceedingly heavy dellcit, arid that Now Zea land will soon be in tho market, for another loan, although she has only just got £5,000,000, and he warns people against her. He concludes thus :" My cwn con- j viction is, that so soon as the public of Eng- i land become alive to the real condition of her finances, they will decline to lend her more money, and that not long after this eaiy mode' of balancing revenue utth ex penditure'is cut off, she will suspend pay ments," Of course, Ido not think she will suspend payments, but she must really cut do^vn her expenditure. That awful Government department takes a great .amount of money to keep it going. I Was selling some sharO3 on this market, and the broker told me he thought people Were beginning to look rather cool at New Zealand stocks, i f an investor wanted any thing there were rather too many stocks with New Zealand to their name, and that Labouchero's article would set tho ball rolling and many would inquire more diligently into the matter before they in invested iv her securities. CURRENT TOPICS. . The Duke of Manchester, President of the Colonial Institute, is going to pay a visit to the Australian coh>nies> and will, of course, go to Now Zealand. The Eastern question has assumed quite a new and an awkward phase. Turkoy refuses to comply with the mandate of the powers to 'cedo certain territory to Groece, and there is.to bea-groati naval demonstration consisting of two ironclads from each power, under tiie command, it is said, of a British Admiral, in order to compel Turkey, or rather to Coel'oo her to comply. But strange to say they aw* to go with unloaded guns, and just perform a naval promonade. To show what Turkey's idea of the promenade is, or rather in what a ludicrous light Bhc views tho affair, she has ordered four voascls of her own fleet to accompany those of European powers. But this Eastern business bangs like a pall over Europe. Turkey is preparing for war quietly, but in earnest. Mho has aout Ghazi Osniiui Pasha to see the fortilicatioos and is giving all the assistance she can to the Albanians. Everyone was surprised the other day to hear that the Sultan had appointed a German official to take supremo control of the financial affairs of his country, and that many other Germans were to follow. But tho affair has made the other Powers co dcaw their breath that BUmark, who is at the bottom of the whole affair, has apparently stopped any more going at present. A PARIS SENSATION. A good deal of excitement was caused in Paris the other day, when an American lady, who, it is said was very good looking, died very suddenly at the residence of Lady Pelbam Clinton. It appears that she was persuaded by an English nobleman, the Marquis of Anglesey, to"obtain adivorce from her husband. This she succeedod in doing, but when she received the news she became awarethat the nobleman had proved false, and parried instead an elegant woman, a widow, also an American, ilia lordship offered tho offended lady £600 a year, but this she indignantly refused, and went to live at the abore-mentioncd resi dence, whore a short time after she was found dead. Some gay it was suicide > others that it was brandy. Who can tell , It was decided as con j cation of tho brain.' The lady's name was Mrs Annie Whetmore, of N. V., aged about thirty years.

We, your peti tioners, think it may be broken in this instance ; also, gentlemen, that the £15 to 20 thousands you have to expend, your petitioners pray it to be spent in day labour by putting your bye-street, &c, in repairs, and opening others in good order in the city, and; to abolish the Public Baths for the present; and should there be any surplus from the £15 to 20 thousands to go towards erecting some factory for the purpose of giving employ to those who cannot use the pick and shovel. Gentlemen, the unemployed in tho city being heavy rentpayers, ask for the city work before those present employed thereon, who are living at cheaper rents outside the city boundaries, an.il also those who have property, can do without it better than those who have to pay city rents. We ask this as it being a rule in the mother country and other colonies, as well being as the majority of the unemployed dan Ram more at pick and shovel work than what we can at stone-breaking. Gentle men, we also ask that the Councillors have permission (as they have in other colonies) to bring (or recommend) a citizen that is worthy "of employ before His Worship the Mayor", and that His Worship, on the re commendation of the Councillor, that the Mayor give an order for employment, and that the officials whom are under the Coun cill's jurisdiction do have uo power of put ting any man or men on or oft the works if he should have committed any offence con trary to orders before bringing him or them before His Worship the Mayor to deal with him or otherwise accordingly.

The Alleged Discovery at Te Aroha.

GttAHAMSTOWN, this day.

Mr. A. Porter, who is iv charge of the prospocting party which recently met with Buch promising indications of tho prosenco of rich reofa of gold iv tho Arolm district, returned from Auckland yesterday, having sot ucccssary machinery in motion for acquiring a title to the locality of the liud. For the present, however, It is not wine to indicate the locality, bat when the rights and privileges of prospectors are sufficiently secured, we shall no doubt, be in position to proclaim more fully the nature of tho dis covery. In the meantime we can only enjoin patience and entertain a hope that the discovery will prove as profitable as is anticipated. Mr W. Carrick, who occupied tho posi tion of agent for tho Union Bank of Aus tralia at tho Thames for a number ot years, and recently relinquished his appointment, has accepted tho secretaryship of tho North Shore Forry Company, and left Thames yesterday to enter upon his new duties.

THE GOVERNMENT PRICE OF LAND.

SIB, —Would you allow mo through the columns of your paper, to call tho atten tiou of the public to what I think is the short-sightedness of the Government in regard to laud. First, tho high prico of tha Waimatc Plain's laud for sale next month ; ul«o allowing it to be sold by auction. It will be run up so high that the man of small means will not bo able to buy, or it he docs, it Will take all his capital to. buy the land, and he will not have any left for Improving his land, so he will keep the country front going ahead. Why cannot land be soh} cheap here the same as in Australia ? The poor man then would bb able to do something with his land; ho would then have goods to export, aud would want imported goods, and havo money to spend, nnd would do good in the country. Do you not think tbe country would do better by tho farmers doing well by getting their land cheaper than the country does now by the Govern ment getting a big price for the land ? Also in regard to the Waimate Lands—they only allow a man to apply for one deferred payment section; so if six happen to ap ply for one section, live have to go with out any, for they are not allowed to bid for any more. Why not sdll them the same as cosh section! ? Let a man bid for any he likes, and if ho can't get one lot him try for another. The Government are nlso going to charge the buyer one shilling in the uound on the increase, above tho up set price. I always thought the seller paid commission, not the buyer. I Know several people who have come here for land, and havo left again because they could not get laiid to suit them. The Govern ment have land already smveyed, but will not put it in the market, flow can you uxpect to go ahead if you will not sell your land? I wonder the mer chants and storekeepers do not stir them selves to get the country settled up, for it would do them a lot of good. I suppose some day there will be a Wake up. 1 wish somebody who thoroughly understands it would fake up the land question.—l remain, sir, yours truly, A STRANGER.
