In committee the East Coast Land Bill was further considered. Mr Moss moved, "That progress be re ported," which the Government eventually agreed to, and the motion was carried. LEASEHOLDERS' QUALIFICATION, On the motiou to. report on the Lease holders' Qualification Bill, Mr Hall said this was not the place for the limitation, uindo ot the suggestion of Sir.G. Grey. He moved the re-committal of the Bill for the purpose of reconsidering the amendment. He added that on the division being called, a number of members who desired to vote on the question did not hear the Bill. Sir G. Grey objected to the re-committal, contending that no valid grounds had been stated by the Premier. Ultimately the Bill was re-committed, and Mr Saunders proposed that the clause be altered from two to three votes. I Mr Hall said that, practically speaking, what was being contested* was very little, j He did not believe that more than thirty { men would exercise more than the proposed : number of votes. He would be glad to take time to consider the suggestion ot Mr Saun ders, and with that view he would agree to an adjournment till to-morrow. Mr Saunders felt it honourable on the part of the Government to make the offer they had done. Had they been so minded they might have dropped the Bill alto- , gether. He tuought the suggestion of the j Premier should be acceded to. . j Tlie motiou for reporting progress was agreed to on the voices. The House rose at 1.25 a. m.

BILLS,

The Education Reserve Act Amendment, Supreme Couit Procedure, and West Coast Settlement Reserves Bills were read a second time in committee. .

FIFTEEN MONTHS SUPPLY.

Major Atkinson askqd leave to, intro duce the Public Revenues Amendment Bill. ; - Mr Montgomery objected to the Bill on the grotind that, supplies for a. period of fifteen months was, under the Circumstances, too long. It was of the. utmost importance . that the, new Parliament should be called together as early as possible. . Mr Ballance advocated a similar view, insisting that it was of the utmost im portance Parliament should be called again not later tban the middle of April. A great question of policy was embodied in the ap proaching elections, and it WJ3 constitu tional that an opportunity should be given at the earliest possible moment, to see who has. trot the confidence of the country. Major ATKINSON said he understood the calling togetheroi Parliament was a question of convenience tor members, and that the middle of May or June had been decided on as the most convenient period of the year. He knew of no great question of policy at issue. In fact he could not see how members on the other side would be able to manu facture an election cry.

Mr Montgomery said that on going into Committee of Supplies, it was his intention of moving that, in the opinion of this House, the general elections should take place not later than the month of November, and that Parliament should meet not later than the 15th April. He would prefer Parliament meeting iv January or February, but_ he found that those were most inconvenient months for meeting. April, however, would obviate hat difficulty. The Government asked for roe months' supplies beyond the 31st March, and it was most important they should be prevented from carrying on too Idng after the elections. To put himself right with the forms of the House, he moved to report progress. Major Atkinson said it was evident enough that the motion would create a lengthened discussion. He would, there lore, table notice of motion, bringing the Bill in tho ordinary way for Monday. Mr Montgomery said that he wouid prefer seeing the debate taken to-night. At all events, if it was delayed till Monday he ioped the Government would not give facilities for members leaving until the question was decided. The question for leave to introduce the Bill on Monday was then put and carried.

DECIDED SELLS. —HOW A DETECTIVE WAS TAKEN IN.

A great forgery having been committed, whereby a bank was robbed of thirty thous. and pounds, the culprit succeeded in get« ting safely out of England, and escaped to the Argentine Republic, where there was no extradition treaty. He was believed to have taken the whole of his plunder with him, a3 his . wife — who was nar rowly watched — certainly held no portion of it, and no letter ad dressed to him had passed through the post-office; so a private detective of great reputation was employed by the bank authorities to go out fo the riger Plate, and endeavour either to recover the money or to lure the forger into a posi tion where he might be captured. The detective was an educated man, and well fitted to carry out the role he assumed— that of Major R , travelling for his health, and intending to pay a short visit to Buenos Ayres, before proceeding to Valparaiso and Peru. Un limited powers, official and unofficial, were conferred upon him; he was supplied with letters of introduction to the leadins people in the Republic; and of course there was to be no question of expense. Thus furnished he set off. On arrival at Buenos Ayres he discovered that his man had gone some leagues up country. Follow ing up the track, he found him liying iv apparent great poverty, employed as a shepherd by an English " estanciero," to whom the would-be Major R——■ happened to have a letter of introduction. Iv this way he had no difficulty in making ac quaintance with his intended prey— gradaully and casually, to avert suspicion. One day, he asked him openly whether his position in life had not been very different from that in which he found him, as his speech and manners were those of a gentlemen; and after a little hesi tation the shepherd confessed that such was the case—presently telling a plausible talc of misfortunes in business, &c. Professing pity for him, tho kind-hearted major lent him money, and took him backinto the city,where he entertained him at one of the best hotels as his gues*', having mentioned to him con fidentially that he wished to invest a con siderable sum inland out there, and promis ing to instal him as manager of the estate. All this time the thief was supposed to be carrying the money hidden about his person; and it was to devise some strategy tor ob taining this with certainty and safety, that the detective postponed the denouement of the plot so long. At length, when he had excluded every other possible place of con cealment.and seemed to have won the man's entire confidence, he went to the captain of the British man-of-war lying there, and re vealed himself in his own character—for nibody,till then.had the least inkling of tho truth—and together they arranged a very nice ' little trap. The officers of the gum boat were to give a grand picnic, fol lowed by a dance on board ; and all the bpst people in Buenos Ayres were invited— Major R and his friend among the rest. The "friend" was delighted at the prospect, and drew largely on the major for the wherewithal to present a befitting splendour of appearance on the eventful day. As they strolled down to the wharf.together arm-in arm, you may be sure that Major R—-'s heart beat __;_ -with the triumph already in his grasp—one of the cleverest captures ever planned by an emissary ot Scotland - yard. Hiring a boat, they soon arrived alongside the man-of-war,where tbe poop was already crowded with ladies. "Jump up, "said the major, as the gangway ladder was lowered; "we're just in time." "Well, no, Mr G ,» returned the forger, calling the detective by his real name; " I don't think I'll go on board; but I'll stay here in the boat and listen to the music, while you go up and dance." If the officer did not feel sold at that moment no man ever did. The '.bestOf it was the audacious robber had not one penny of his booty with him, and was -uch too wary to trust the post. Both he and his wife—who joined him soon after.

wards—were obliged to work for theifbfead until tho arrival of-their governess—who bad never been -suspected ot complicity—with the whole sum. But how he discovered his adversary was never known.

In the mines during the week very little payable work has been accomplished. Some tribute-, parties, gold has assisted to swell the returns, but the principal mines have not yielded very payable results. The sharemarket, therefore, has been quiet, few people being inclined to speculate. Some attention has beeu attached to mines in the upper country, but even the excitement existing last week has abated considerably. The Smile of Fortune, Owharoa, has Yielded 5260z5. of gold from the late retort ing. A crushing from the Queen of Beauty mine, at the Thames, has given Messrs Connolly and party a little over an ounce to the load. i In the Old Golden Calf somo fair speci men? have come to hand ; and in the Cale donian some nice dabs of gold have shown in the reef when breaking down. .

SALE OF THE STEAMER SOUTHERN CROSS.

TJie Union Company Enter The Fiji Trade.

The proposal to form a powerful steamship company in Auckland has stirred up the Union Steam Shipping Company to enter the Fiji trade—the last trade that remains to Auckland. They closed to-day with the Auckland Steamship Company for the pur chase of the Southern Cross with the good will of her trade and subsidy from the Gov ernment of £2500 a-year. The steamer had been offered to the new Auckland Company, but they hesitated to accepi her, as she is altogether unsuited to the and a strong demand has been made in Fiji for a better steamer. The step taken by the Union Company should stimulate the Auckland people to enter on the new enterprise with greater enthu siasm, and make the subscription of the capital a patriotic movement among com mercial men. A first-class steamer, built specially for the Pacific trade, should he obtained without loss of time, and from the feeling already existing against the Southern Cross, there can be little doubt that tbe Auckland Company will have no cause to regret the short delay necessary to commence operations ia first-class style. The jealousy of the Union Company against any steam ship enterprise projected in Auckland is re markably displayed in their present pur. chase.

THE FENCING ON THE PLAINS.

(BY TELEGRAPH.-PRESS ASSOCIATION.)

NEW PLYMOUTH, this day. The natives do not appear to be acting under any definite instructions from Te Whiti in the matter of erecting fences, and consequently they have made no determined stand against the Constabulary. They will probably desist from offering further obstruction to the Constabulary until tho Parihaka meeting is over, which commences to-day. It has beeu noticed that natives have not proceeded to Pari haka this month in their customary fashion, viz., with bullock drays well-loaded with provisions, but the majority of them have travelled on foot. This shows the Maoris are getting hard up, and cannot make the customary piesents.

FRENCH INTERFERENCE IN THE SOUTH PACIFIC.

(From a Correspondent.)

EAROTONGA, August 27. This island was visited on the 10th July last by the French steam sloop-of-war Hugon, carrying six guns and a compliment of 150 officers and men.in command of Cap tain Mdward. The captain interviewed the principal authorities of the island (by whom he was hospitably received), and also the resident missionary, the Rev. W. W. Gill, and some of the European traders.—At a meeting that was held at the Queen's Falace, sHuarua, the captain, through his interpreter (a Tahitian), urged the natives to be industrious and to collect their pro duce, and to ship it to Tahiti, instead of disposing of it to the local traders. The native authorities replied that they were perfectly satisfied wiih the existing state of trade, and wished for no French inter ference; that their flag had been formally recognised by a British man-of-war, aud that they hoped and expected that, if neces sary, England would protect them.—lt is very evident that the French intend, if pos sible to get a footing in the Hei vey and Cook Groups (as they have already in the Society Islands, to the detriment of the present traders'), as this same vessel has already visited Mangaia, Atua, and the other prin cipal islands, making overtures to the natives, but so far without any great suc cess. Considering that the bulk of the business ia this group, and extending to the Society Islands, and north to the line.is being c inducted almost entirely by firms and vessels doing business with and trading to and from Auckland, about 14 of the best Auckland boats being em« ployed iv it, besides other small craft, it would be a great pity if the Frenjh were able to step in and secure a monopoly of the business. The exports from the group and adjacent islands have been roughly esti mated at £150,000 per annum for the past twelve months, tbe hulk of which goes to Auckland, and an equivalent amount of merchandize is , imported. Tho native authorities have sent a memorial to his Ex cellency the Governor of New Zealand on the subject, and it is the general wish of both whites andnatiyes that the group shall remainunder its present form of Government # andbe protected by the English Government, I may add that a British Vice-Consul was appointed some years back, but through some informality the appointment has never been confirmed although several applica tions for the same have beeu made, conse quently the British residents on the Island have no one to apply to for redress ia the event of any trouble arising,-We observe by last English mail that Mr C. E. Good roan has been appointed H.B. Majesty s Consul for the Hervey Islands, to reside at RarotoDga. ._

A minimum penalty of £200 is imposed for entering goods not entitled to drawback, or for entcrine* at a higher rate than allowed.

THE PROPOSED STEAMSHIP COM PANY.

(To the Editor.) Sir,—"Sell preservation is the first law of nature," and that the protection and promo tion of the commerce of this port is the first duty of every businessman is equally true. Therefore I rejoice that a Steamship Com pany strong enough to do our own trade, and render grasping opposition impossible, is about to be floated. It was only when Auckland's "one little ewe lamb" — the Fiji trade was about to be absorbed by the voracious Southern Octopus,—the Union Steamship Company, that we wakened up to the fact that we would soon have none of this valuable and growing trade lelt to us. Will Auckland commercial men shew the right spirit in this matter, and come earnestly to the front, or will they allow tne energetic Dnnedinites to appropriate everything? They have already appropriated mote than their share of colonial lands and public works • they have had an undue proportion of immigration, with the recent exceess of representation, and now they would ttep in and seize every steamer in our port with the trade they have made. I regret very much that Auckland is afflicted with a few individuals in our"* midst who will attribute unworthy and ulterior motives to the promoters of almost every enterprise that is projected. They will not admit the possibility of purity of purpose or patriotism. In this instance, the tongue of envy and maliciousness says that the chief object of forming this new Com pany is to sell the s.s. Southern Cross. Pshaw 1 let them go into facts and seek further information. Why, the individual directors of the A.S.S. Co., have put down their names in the new Company for double the amount of their interests iv the Com pany that owns the Southern Cross, How much better we would be it wc could only expatriate or cs'racise a few ot our "wet blankets" who are only happy when they are depreciating the place they live in, and vilifying any citizen who is more enterprising than another! I hope every well-wisher of our splendid province will stamp out this spirit loss, stolid malignity, and that a loyal ' assistance will be given to the few who are working for the weal of the Commonwealth ;as well as their own. I hope, sir, that this '" big enterprise " will be launched on the high tide of prosperity, regardless of foes within and foes without. —Yours, &c,
