PARLIAMENTARY.

(FROM OUR SPECIAL REPORTED.-)

WELLINGTON, this day. FIERCE ATTACK ON MR SHEEHAN. The " Chronicle," which fills the role of the Opposition organ iv Wellington, to ni»ht fiercely attacks Mr Shechan for his absence. It says :" He went up like a rocket and came down like a stick. He seemed utterly incapable of rising to the Hi<rnitv of a Minister of the Crown, and conducted himself while in office in the aamc happY-go-lucky style that belonged to him as a private individual. His reputa tion if not that of Sardanapalus, certainly brought no credit to the Cabinet—in which he held one of the most important offices— or to the party,one of whose leaders ho'was. The most flagrant accusations have been levelled at his administration, and he has not shown his face to the House. Leave of absence haa beon granted him on various pretexts, though hia duty to himself, his party, and tho country from which he draws two hundred guineas a-year alike demand his prose-ice. The last heard of him was present at a Maori wedding. Nero fiddled while Rome burned. Wc presume that the ex-Minister would rather enjoy the sight of Maori haka than help to save the coun try that has done to much for him, and used to be proud of him." This article, appearing in the Opposition organ, excited much surprise. THE COST OF THE LOANS. In reply to Mr Thomson, the Treasurer said the item £14,030 on tho estimates for -barges and expenses under the New Zea land "Stock Act, was a vote of last year not raid and therefore repeated. The par ticiilirs comprised stamp duty, commission to Bank of Englaud.aud expenses of raising. CIVIL SERVICE APPOINTMENTS. In reply to Mr Tole, as to whether the Government will ollbr Civil Service appoint ments as prizes to students in New Zealand University, Mr Kolles ton replied that the Government believe tho subject worthy of careful consideration, but it bad not yet assumed practical shape. The Government would be glad when the question arises to give any encouragement to political teaching iv the University, and Schools aud Mines surveying and engineering. RATES ON CROWN LAND. In reply to Mr Pyke.the Treasurer said the Government would pay rates on all land, whether agricultural or pastoral, and land coveted with bush it fit for occupation, hut snow-coveted mountains would be ex cluded from the schedules of the Bill on the subject. SALE OF WAIMATE PLAINS. In reply to Major Harris,Mr Ro . .BSTON said orders had beengiveu to proceed with the survey of some portion of Waimate Plains, and it is hoped the blocks will be open for sale at an early date. BOTTLE LICENSES. In reply to Mr Stewart, Mr Dick said before the Licensing Bill was brought down the question of bottle licenses would be carefully considered, and if it was thought inexpedient to include such license it might he done. But the Government did not see any reason to alter the decision they had already come to. £SOO THROWN AWAY. Mr Stevens asked whether £800 had been paid to the solicitor in the " Waka Maori" case more than he was entitled

to. Mb Dick stated he had misinformed the House in the answer he gave yesterday. He had since cone more fully into the matter, and found that £800 had been paid to plaintiffs solicitor in the " Waka Maori" case which ought not to have been paid. Mr Bell, plaintiffs solicitor, rendered a bill of costs tor £2246 14s lid which was taxed down to £1821 12s 7d, in addition to damages awarded, £500 interest at 8 pei cent., £38 13s 2d. Total £2360 5s Id. That was the amount-of penalty payable. Mr Bell rendered to his client, Mr Russell, a further bill of costs for £968 14s. In this bill the solicitor included the £415 taxed off his bill of £2,246-fecs to Mr Barton, £252 ; to Mr Bell, £210; and other charges. Mr Shec han, ou the 13th September, 1877, directed that £168 Is 4d be deducted, and £800 be paid. His answer therefore would be that the colony had paid £800 more to plaintiff's solicitor iv tbe "Waka Maori" case than ought to have been paid, aud that it was done by the authority of Mr Sheeban. In reply to Mr Stevens, the Premier said the matter will be sent to the Public Accounts' Committee for inciuirY.

AUCKLAND PETITIONS. In reply to the question from the Peti tions' Committee, relative to Gadd's peti tion, Mr Dick stated that the Government had taken all the action they intended in the matter, and would forward all corres pondence on the subject to the Committee for their recommendation.

The Petitions' Committee also considered the petitiuu ut Henry Ntcoii, re patent slip, which ho alleged had been obstructed by tho Harbour Board. This body, however, threw the blame on the Road Board, who denied ajjy responsibility. The Committee postponed the further consideration of the .question, but later on Mr Swanson received a telegram from Mr Nicoll, stating that he (had beeu obstructed by the Itailway and •Road Board.

William Halliday's petition, presented by Mr Speight, complains of the illegal deten tien of his three girls by the manager of the Industrial Home, Auckland.

DISINTEGB VTION OF KING PARTY

Judge Fenton and Mr Swanson's plan of returning portions of the confiscated land at Onewhero, in Waikato, to parties of Kingites, in order to. induce them to settle und detach themselves from the Kingities is producing most beft'efieia! reiults. Petitions for similar concessions are coming from other sections of the Kingites, and if fostered by Government will rapidly disin tegrate the King party. Mr Rolleston and Judge Feuton favour the proposal. Proba bly a recommendation will be made by the Native Affairs Committee to the House.

MAJOR ATKINSON'S REPLY. Majob AtkinsoN's speech, last night, was considered a very able reply to the Op position criticism. Mr Macandrew shewed extreme restle3suess and annoyance as one damaging fact after another against the late Government was calmly stated, and the statement that tbe Grey Government had spent over fourteen millions and left three paillions liabilities caused a profound sensa tion, more especially aa the figures are vouched for by the Secretary to the Treasury and Audit. It was thought Major Atkinsou's speech would have ended the debate, but Mr DeLaatour moved the adjournment, and will to-day attempt to furnish a reply. THE COST OF THE DEBATE. Mr Seddon said one good thing in his speech yesterday, namely, that in the Want of Confidence Debate thirty persons spoke making fifty-two yards of matter in "Hansard," costing £2,000, which would make three miles of road, or twelve miles of track, or pay the honorariums of ten mem bers of the House. mr Mclean on "the four." Mr McLean, at the conclusion of his speech, defended the conduct of the Auck land Four who went over to the Govern ment last session. He said a great deal of contumely had been cast ou them, and it was only justice to them that the House should recognise that their action was fully, vindicated by the subsequent disclosures Md financial precipices on which thecolonv |rtood. All sides of the House were now ► unanimous that they deserved credit for saving the colony from financial ruin,-and ihe time was not remote when the colony would thank them for the action they took. ABSENT MEMBERS. As shewing the flagging interest in the debate, there were fifteen pairs last night— that is, thirty members spared themselves the infliction of small hours. Sir George Grey i 3 ill, and has not attended the House for two days. BAD LOCAL WORKMAWSHIF. Mr Bareon yesterday fired the last shot that has taken effect at tlie report of the Civil Service Commissioners. He asked the I government in reference to the passage in tne report if the wagons built by the con tractor in Dunedin were delivered at Lbnstchwsln at the end ot inst year in a r?. tll«Bdfc3cribed by a witness: Some t'" ™w mk.oi dis .racctully bad woi k ■•■arjrtup ao<ra>K.iniber, The timber was NMtbark: was put in instead * u^bar .^vWpiuT, were not properly XVToWd Afctlom frames Wd up 71$ **lLf!,« flooring boards, ' '• ir\ iht- 81 X *^«* ii*) The name of ■'.ti'^ .itne l • rfomtftV yAS<»»B- (2.)

has sent in his reply to the charges made by the Commissioners.' It is a complete and triumphant vindication of tho charges made against him. Ho has money in Davidson's which ho would have been glad to get out for speculative purposes long ago. All the work Davidson has done is what was obtained by oublic tender, and Mr Conyers' answer will" be laid on the table of the House to-morrow. It will be remembered what the Commissioners have shewn about the reduction of the cost of working rail ways in Auckland from 94 to 68 per cent. The whole thing is utterly untrue. The man referred to is named Lowe. H e had no more to do with the reduction than the Governor. The plan of reduction had been arranged months before Lowe was heard of. Mr (Macdonald, tho stationmaster in Aucklaud, had moro work to do than he could manage, and Lowe was put on to assist him. lie happened to be thus employed when the reduction took place, and had no more to do with its Coming into force than the stoker. He, however, claimed the kudos, and the Commissioners wore foolish enough to give it him. He fell out with Macdonald, and had to leave.

In reference to the question put by Mr Barron, quoted iv this message, it may be stated that the allegations about the wagons were made by Allison Smith, the locomotive engineer at Christchurch, and the Commissioners deserve to have this said in their favour. They inquired care fully from him whether he was certain of the statements he made, and that he read over the evidence aud signed it. It now bears his signature on the table of the House. Mr Blair, Chief Engineer, supplied tho information to the Government this day, denying the allegations made by Smith.

WASTE LANDS COMMITTEE,

The effect of the recommendation of the Surveyor-General in his evidence, eudorscd by the Waste Lands Committee, is that under the Laud Act the allotments of peti tioners should be withdrawn from the operation ot the deterred payments system and improvements valued, and the former put up to auction, any purchaser or occu pier having to pay the valuation of improve incuts they think necessary. This would enable those who have made improvements to obtain advances on them by way of mort gage to enable them to purchase freehold.

THE LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL,

Racing again occupied a largo part of the Council's time yesterday, Colonel Brett vigorously attacking tho turf. He would oppose all racecourse bills in tho interests ot the risiug generation. PAYMENT OF MEMBERS.

Mr Seddon has given notice of a bill to settle the payment of members by Act.

TH .CHINESE. Mr Hutchinson gave notice of the intro auction of au anti-Chinese bill.

THE WANT-OF-CONFIDENCE DEBATE.

Mr Seddon continued this debate, and spoke till the dinner adjournment. When the House re-assembled at half past seven, Mr Seddon resumed his speech, which added two or three yards more to the length of " Hansard" report, aud nearly a hundred pounds to expenses of the country, according to his own calcula tion of thirty pounds for every hour Parlia ment sits. He charged the present Trea surer with having depreciated the value of the five million loan debentures by his alarming financial statement, a telegraphic account of which appeared in the " London Times." Ho expounded the novel idea that the country would never prosper until the General Government was abolished and tho entire control handed over to local bodies. [N.B. —He is Chair man of the Westland County Council.] He described the beer tax as a most crush ing impost. He was not at all surprised that the tax should have been protested against. The Bill on the table proposea to raise the general license fee to £40, and he contended it was not possible that one branch of industry could bear such a cnuh iug impost. He asked the Government to reduce it at least one-half. He hoped both sides would support the Government in the firm manner in which they had grasped the Native affairs. He hoped they would soon see the Waimate Plains open for settlement. If companies were found with sufficient capital to lease the railways, he would like to see tham leased. It was a well ascer tained fact that these works never were a3 economically worked by the Government as by private enterprise. He believed they would do much bettor without the Govern ment at all, and the head of departments be responsible direct to the members of this House. The fact was they aped at too much. Party politico was tho curso of the State and the colony, and he hoped the day would come Avheu it would all bo swept away. It was not right that they should carry out retrenchment in such a way as to bring the administration to a stop. Min isters should be called upon to make the reduction gradually, and compensation should be paid in cases involving particular hardships. At the conclusion of the speech, which occupied nearly tour hours, and added about SO yarda to the previous fifty two, he said he would probably refrain from voting.

(PEE UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATION).

Major Atkinson's Reply.

Major Atkinson said the Government was bound to reply to the many accusations made against them. It seemed to him that tho proposals of the House was to discuss the financial proposals of the Government rather than discuss the shortcomings of the Govern ment. He would, therefore, proceed to review the position of the colony from 1870, dividing the period from 1870 to 1875, and from 1877 to 1879, when the member for the , Thames was ejected from office. He blamed , the difficulty up to 1877 to the fact that tlie provinces had not been abolished from 1875 . They took thoir votes in large sums, the i Government being left to spend those as they liked. In 1875 all standing vote 3 wore re pealed, and since then, to 1877, the House had absolute knowledge of all thatwas going on. In 1877, when he left office, it was stated that there was a deficit. He bad prepared by the secretary to the Treasurer, and audited, a a statement which would show that in Sep tember there was in the Treasury a sum of £919,000. The liabilities were £989,000 so that would have left the colouy some £70,000 to the bad, had it been wound up at that time. But of £276,000 for land purchase, only to the present £98,000 had been paid, so that in reality when the late Government took office there was a sum of £100,000 in the Treasury. Out of £332,000 of Treasury Bills issued, £282,000 had been paid directly to the provinces. That was the full extent to which he had committed the Colony to Treasury Bills. Itwas exceed ingly fortunate, considering the state in which the provinces were, that more of these Bills wero not issued. When Mr Macandrew took ■ office there was ample means in hand to meet all liabilities. Then we voted him two and-a-half millions for general works. At the cud of that year he had to his credit about two millions for public works. The truth was, the hon. member got more than he asked for. He asked for four millions : one million to take up the loan of 1876, £500,000 for provincial liabilities, £833,000 for Treasury Bills, and £300,000 to repay to Public Works Fund. They relieved him of the last two items, and showed him that £300,000 was enough for the provincial lia bilities. The House would see then that they had actually given him more than he asked for. That of itself proved that he was not embarrassed, as he had attempted to mako out. They were then told that the country was in such a flourishing condition that fresh taxation was not necessary. These facts showed that their prosperity was absolutely complete at the time. That was their verdict, after they had time to examine into the maladministration of the vile Continuous Government. That was in the year 1878, and he had demon strated that everything was at that date in a satisfactory state. It was evident that the responsibility for their present condition date from that year. They proposed to rely upon an enormous land fund. They based their estimated expenditure on a land revenue of two millions. The Minister for Public Works proposed to borrow thrca millions to complete his scheme. The fact was that he got five millions, and he left them to say how far the scheme was com pleted. When the member for the Thames left nffioo, h»lpft in the Treasury a suia of! £81,000, against which ho left liabilities, i including deficiency bills of three-and-a-half millions. They had actually during their term of office received in hard ca-tli | £11,243,000, and they left* as he had staid, j liability or three-tt nd-s-half millions. The** \ were the men that asked to replace them in i tho administration. Ho would HWfJfily detailed particular.? of what he had said, and •" '•he jjtember for Port Chalmers nrwyt bo would eak j .".aid as- jtlwo ' ■ >t. J

Tho Oppodtion"wS obH«Sd to swallow this without the least considera turn, in order to provide the interest which had been provided for before. That was the position the hon. member left them in It would be borne in mind that these gentlem en had been crying out about maladminis tration and extravagance. Who, then, was responsible for the present state of affairs ? It was not the scheme of 1870, or the Go' vcrnmeiit of 1877, as they left money to meet all their liabilities He (Major Atkin son) was not to blame, as he left' sufficient money to meet all liabilities he had in curred. Nor were the people of New Zea-' land to blame, for the moment their voice could be heard thoy ejected tho.e gentle men from oihee. It was now narrowed to a small compass The persons responsible were :Mr Ballance, who persuaded the people that they had the means they did not possess. Tho member for Port Chal mers was to blame for having manufactured a paper on the Land Fund,, and entered into engagements accordingly; and lastly aud most of all, the responsibility mainly rested with the member for the Thames as ho was the head of this Government who had undertaken to introduce thrift and economy into the Government, and he permitted all these thiu«s to go on. In fact, it went on by his authority when a word from him would, have put a stop to it. He referred to the Royal Commissions. They had appointed these Commissions iv order that information might be obtained with which to effect the reforms required. Last session was a long one, and they did not prorogue till Christmas, aud they had to meet again in May. They had not time to gather information. That was a complete answer to those who objected ,that they had not done more than others had done. He could have shown a deficit for the year 1878-9 of £261,000 had he takeu in all items. He was entitled to do this if he wanted to make a case against his opponents. That was an answer to those who complained that he had made things worse than they really were. It was uufortuuate that the local finance scheme should bo discussed before they knew what it was, Tim Bill would be down in a few days, when he would be prepared to discuss the proposal. The talk about repudiation in connection with the abolition of sub sidies was absurd. Either they had to abolish the subsidies, pay them out of the loan, or impose fresh taxes to pay them. That was the spirit in which he invited them to approach the subject. What he proposed was to make expenditure and revenue for the fprthcoming year square with each other by carrying forward £225,000 liabilities. They must bear in mind that they would next year have to provide £100,000 additional for interest; in round numbers they would have to provide next year an additional sum of £350,000. The most ardent retrenchers had not attempted to reduce the expenditure more than £250,000, so that £10,000 would still remain to be provided. For that case thoy would see that fresh taxation was absolutely neces sary. The Government proposed to deal with the matter by retrenchment, the pro perty tax, the tax on beer, increase of Customs Duties. Parties 'in tho House differed as to the mode in which the tax should be levied on property, and the amount of the beer tax. The Government recognised the importance of retrenchment, but this could only be accomplished by dismissing unnecessary officers, reducing salaries, and reducing the convenience of the public. Little saving could be made this year in dismissals, as the officers dismissed would have to be compensated. If they were to do anything applicable, it would have to be done by reducing the public conveniences and the salaries payable to officers. He would tell them what had beon done already in that direction. Takius the expenditure on ten of the principle clauses for IS7B-9, the expenditure was £1,675,000. Ou that expenditure they proposed a reduction of £105,000 this year. They had not their report of the Civil Service Commission, nor did they know that the House would sup port them iv that direction. Now, that they did know it, when they went into com- mittee each Minister would be prepared to say what further reductions could be made iv his Department. They were iv earnest to reduce the expenditure within reasonable limits. They had been accused of imposing crushing taxatiou. lie pointed out that over the estimate of revenues from 1878-9, as made by tho late Government, all they proposed in the shape of taxation would have been proposed. Tuey had gone some length in that direction, if reports were true. It was stated they had prepared an Income Tax Bill, and an increase of the land tax to 2d an acre. That was a lively prospect for the country. He denied that the proporty tax would go down to the working men. The statement was absurd. Working men were not alone dependent ou their wages. Many of them were to a certain extent men who had properties, consequently they had a very great say in the regulating of wages. He had not been able to understand what was meant by a property and income tax, as spoken of. He held they should never touch the man him self as long as his property was sufficient for the purpose. That was the real distinc tion between a property tax and the income tax. The latter was far. more inquisitorial and difficult of collection than tho former. Had the member for Christchurch consulted the Act he would have found he was not entitled to give the assessors the informa tion he mentioned in Lis speech. But then the whole ot the information related to real property, and that information could have been got by anybody who took the trouble to consult the public register. They had been told the property tax would drive away capital aud prevent improvements. The fact was that English capital was coming into the colony very largely, and so far as he could hear, none of the monetary institutions of the colony had the slightest fear of the tax. Any capitalist afraid of the tax was better out of tho colony than in it. He could not believe his own ears when he was told the tax would atop improvement. Say the land owner had £1000 iv bank. He would havo to pay less if he expended it in fencing, &c, than if he left it undisturbed in the bank. In fact, the tax gave a direct premium for improvement Then, they were told it would aflect the springs of industry. He was told that was machinery, but he under, stood that it was the bone and sinew and brain power of the colony. Well, that was not taxed. Machinery was simply the result of accumulated capital, not the springs of industry. That was simply pro tection. One man invested £1000 in land, and another his £1000 in machinery. The ono was protected from taxation, while the other was subjected to it. He now came to the question of exemption. He thought some exemptions were fair enough. Pro perty, to make man comfortable, should be left before the State taxed it. To make other exemptions, such as machinery, would be to break the principle, although he had yielded very unwillingly to it. He hoped the property tax valuation would be generally accepted by the local bodies, and if this were done, the cost of the property tax would be very small to the country. He condemned the land tax as a most vicious one, and tho idea of its reach ing the unearned .increment was fallacious. The Government/if they remained in office, would next year bring in a Bill to prohibit, entail, and regulate the bequeathal of land, as they felt that the acquisition of large landed estates in families would be most injurious to the Colony. They had no sympathy, however, with the attempt to burst up large estates by a land tax. He had adopted the beer tax most unwillingly. He did not think it would yield more than ho estimated from the experience of the fifty nine days it was in force last year. So far as their present experience was. it '~■: .:.'.; as if it would yfci ! £-10,000 less than he had estimated. The estimated Cuslonw duties were £500,000 les3 than actually recbived last year, They had in- I creased the duties with regrot, and would j reduce them whenever they could, but ha 5 2 »-n. im- .-:Ys;v _>.-osjw-ct »f bring able to ib this. The Houso should now audress themselves to reducing the estimates unuer | the lead of the Government. They should ; tbon see how much taxatiou was neces sary to balance the account. They should limit 'Public Works expenditure to works ■"'•" "ated.' .ib render thai. already; t\.s>? -*■.': '■ -yl-tc and-profitable. ' .Id be very gradual " *he loan

the House should refuse to pass more than a very few absolutely necessary Bills, aud thcu, as soon as possible, set the Govern ment free to commence in earnest the work of reform. There was no need for panic ; but with care, thrift, and attention, New Zealand could, without much difficulty, meet all her engagements. The local bodies and the people generally must learn to practise the virtue of self-denial. He believed they were willing to do this ; and if the Government succeeded iv inculcating this lesson they would feel their works had not been in vain.

Mr DeLautour moved the adjournment of the debate, and the House rose at mid night.

The Finance and General Purposes Com mittee of the City Council held a meeting yesterday afternoon for the purpose of considering the question of site for the proposed Town Hall. The following were present:—His Worship the Mayor (in the chair), Messrs Aickin, Fleming, Waddel, Goldie, Nathan, Buchanan, Offer, Crowther, and Thompson. The petition presented by Mr Buchanan at a previous meeting in favour of the site at the junction of Grey and Queen streets, was then read. It pointed out the necessity that ex isted for having the Town Hall and Public Library in a conspicuous position. The petition bore the signatures ot 276 ratepayers. The report of the Library Committee was also road. It stated that the following proposed sites had engaged the attention of the Committee :—(1) The Queen-street entrance of the market, with a view to Town Hall being erected over the market; (2) Theatre buildings, corner of Vic toria and Queen-streets; (3) corner of Short land and Queen-streets (prospectively); (4) junction of Queenand Grey-streets, (5) Vic toria-street East; (6) junction of Coburg and Wellesley-streets; (7) Police Court buildings The committee recommended the site at the junction ot Coburg and Wellesley-streets as the most suitable one,—Mr Buchanan said tho Grey and Queen-street site was a splen did one, and, although it was said to be small, yet it would be sufficient for require ments for a considerable time.—Mr Goldie agreed with these remarks, and said he was not prepared to support a large experidi- I tnro for fancy building .—Mr Thompson j also supported thia silo, and singly op posed ttio Wcllesley and Coburg-sireels one. | The right-of-way between the Army and Wavy Hotel and tho cite might !•■■■ taken in, 1 and: additional space thus afforded.—Mr Waddel advocated a postponement of the question, and moved a resolution to that! effect. They had not tlio money now to j build the bail, nor were they likely to have i any.—M* Fleming supported the'petition., and wes in favour ol au immediate settlement of the question. Be understood \ that a porf.iou of tbe }«.w<w<l Joan was for a,Town Hall.—Mr." !« •"• ' ol the matter " - ■ . ther waf " settle-*

following resolution.moved by Mr Thompson and seconded by Mr Oiler, was agreed to :— "That the further consideration of this question be postponed till next meeting of the Finance and General Purposes Com mittee, meantime the surveyor be instructed to take the necessary measurements and draft jlans of proposed buildings, with a view to giving the committee more definite information as to the numbers of persons a building on the Queen and Grey streets site could le made to accommodate.

PORT ALBERT R.M. COURT.

Thursday, June 24,

(Before W. Whitehorn, R.M.)

J. 1 Buckton v. Albertland South Dis trict Joard. —Claim, £20, compensation for allegcl breach of contract, and £18 for extrui; total claim, £3S.—From the evi dence! it appeared that plaintiff held a con tract to build two bridges on a newly formfl road, between Port Albert and Wellford. Sometime after plaintiff had comnenced the work the Board requested him not to proceed with tho work until certan negotiations between the Rodney Couity Cmncil and the Board were settled. The plahtiff, who is a member of the Coun',y Council, consented, and delayed the work He now claimed compen sation 10l the delay. The defendants' disputed tie claim on the ground that plain tiff had sutaincd no loss iv delaying the work, audi hat he, being a Councillor and aware of le reasons for delaying tho work, ought noto have made any claim for com pensation ■■ also, that the sum of £18 for extras wasxeessive. A number of witnes ses gave eideuce. -The Bench gave jud« ment for jaintiff for £10 and costs.

Buchana v. George Eyre.—claim £26, damages ad loss sustained in consequence of tho defudaut takiug, as alleged, a steer belonging to plaintiff off the run.— This is ie third time the defendant has beei before the same Court. In the firscase the defendant was charged with stealg this steer, and the case was dismissed, Then the police undertook to " work up case," aud succeeded in getting Mr Eyre anmitted for trial at the Supreme Court las April, but he was acquitted. Now, plariff having failed in proceeding criminallybrings a civil action to recover damages i steer, and loss of timo, &c, in connectiowith the said criminal proceed ings.— T .Bench considered the plaintifit was actinjn a vindictive spirit, and gave judgmentfor defendant with costs.- The platiff said "he might as well go ) Howick as come here for justice," id made other remarks reflect ing on he Court.—The Magistrate said he .Mild commit him to prison for contempt he did not withdraw his re marks, a: on reflection, the plaintiff preferred ologisiug to taking a trip to town for month. Mr Eyro generously gave the pntiffa sum of money equal to the worth the steer after the Court had decided ins (Mr Eyre's) favour. Mr Fitzrald summoned several Maoris for trespasaud damages. In each case judgment ,s given against the Maories. W. Braury v. F. J. Utting.—Claim, £11.—Judient for plaintiff with costs, to be paid thin a month.--Correspon dent.

Mining News.

KuranHill United Co.—Under date 30th Junehe mine-manager (Mr J. W. Walker) -ties as follows :—" Just a Hue to say we irted hauling last night at 6 p.m., and itinue. We will probably be cleaned upd_ ready to begin breaking" No. 1 lode omViday evening or Saturday. Tho counton the hanging-wall is full of quartz andorc veins, and, as far as can be judged, thode is stronger tlie further we go uorchwt No change elsewhere."

The JatHenry Vincent, the English lecturer, or related to a correspondent of the "Tor'imes" that he was driving with John ight when the news of Abra ham Lincoi death was told them by a a mau whiopped their carriage by "the wayside fdiat purpose. Neither of the two Engliscn spoke a word in response. They drovn in utter silence; and bye and bye -vu each looked up at the other's fache eyes of both were full of tears.

The PriiConsort had no wish to die, but he (lidit care for living. Not long before his ai illness, iv speaking to the Queen, heid, "I do not cling to life. You do :; I set no store by it. If I knew that se I love were well cared tor, I should buite ready to die to-morrow." In the sammversation ho added; " I am sure, if I hi severe illness, I should give up at once should not struggle for life. I have no tcity of life."

—SIIAKBSPEARE AMENDED. To tho Editor). Sir, —I havo desire to enter into a paper war with Jo.Brame, or into a discussion with a man o has so little regard for the truth, but Ik as a favour a short space to allow nio contradict some of the phrenetic staieuts make in his parting words on Saday last. He says: " Let us begin at i beginning. On a certain date Messrs light and Jenkins came to our ollice." _ 1 would make out that we wore searching city for some honest paper. He mustknoiiid remember that the visit to his ollice re Scial columns was not flic beginning. llirely has not forgotten his proposal to me-rst verbally, and then Lis written one, an subscription iist, trying to raise the w. to purchase a plant to start an hopcstnjperancejpaper (and put him in business, He surely has forgotten his next proposr*. me to get the Order to support his hon paper. Now, why did John come to nicxccpt it was that I was "treasurer to t!Order?" But when he found that we hjneither the money or the authority to us ,r any such purpose, lie volunteered to £ the space free till tbe Grand Lodge m^and, knowing the mau we were dealinjvith, we took the pre caution to ge the agreement in writing, which how admits to be correct, becauso he cannoelp if. And the feeble attempt he now kes to put some other meaning of a moror mental obligation is so child-like thatfe is disposed to pity his innocence and tmplicity when he imagined that tb world or even the Templars had reaed that high moral standard of disiirested soli-sacrificing liberality to whiclib had attained. Be cause they are nor,iey are dishonest and are sent to Limbo. The next move of our disinterested friennnd benefactor is to levy blackmail on. concerned, then start a new order. "hat being no better ' milker' than the Id," he joins the dis honourable lot fi gives his patting words. Pity theyave so much that is garbled and . arpei and so little that is true. One examph He says his price per ■column is 10s—4 cumns makes £2 per week. From Jun7th to January !>th, 7 months, or 30 wets at £2 -£6 O. This is placed under John'siagnilier, and bendd it is £150.
