THE TROUBLE ON WAI MATE PLAINS.

(BY TELEGRAPH.—OWN CORRESPONDENT).

N RMANBY, thi? day. NO FRESH COMPLICATION.

There is no fresh complication, and hot sufficient grounds for the alarm already raised. The hesitation of the Government i in putting in force the powers invested in it by the West Coast Settlement Act, arises from a lack of men rather than disinclina tion. Arms ire not so much win ted as a body of men sufficient to arrest the large number of natives engaged in obstructive fencing. THE NATIVES WILL AGITATE, , BUT NOT FIGHT. Nothing is more certain than that no re sort to arms will eventuate, and yet. it is actually true that the present agitation will continue. None willing to invest in Taranaki lands need fear armed interference by the natives, but a security for the future relations of the two races will be continually sought by.Te Whiti and his followers. Not ' a native will arm, but this old agrarian ob struction.will continue.

MR HUNTER'S OPINION.—A * QUIETERFEELING PREVAILS,

HAWEKA, this day.

I have just been talking to Mr Hunter, Otakehn, upon whose lands the Maoris are ploughing. He. tells me many settlers blame him for not deciding to turn them off, but, as the Defence Minister threw, the responsibility on him of deciding which course was to be adopted, he thinks, under the circumstances, he did what was bjst,. Some other settlers of thb Plains have made private arrangements and ex changes with the natives, and both races appear quite satisfied. The rumours lately prevailing are now subsiding.

VOLUNTEERS FOR THE FRONT.

CHBISTCHURCH, this day.

The Christchureh Engineers, City Guards ond Yeomanry Cavalry have offered their service's to the Government, in the event of hostilities breaking out with Maories. Tbe total number of applicants for enlistment for the front was 220. Of these, 161 were chosen, and all turned up without exception in splendid form. Among the number were, I .am told, two medical men, one clergy man or ex-clergyman, one lawyer, and a number of clerks, accountants, and some ofthe pick of artisans. .They are a fine set of steady men, and not a sign of drink; was visible on one. A tew of them have means and only join lor adventure.

MOUNT ALBERT TOTAL AB STINENCE SOCIETY.

A very pleasant and profitable gathering took place last evening in the Mount Albert

Public Hall, - when tbe Temperance Society of the district held their usual monthly gathering. That this good cause is steadily gaining ground in this, locality is shown by the statement made by the secre tary, "that fully half, the residents have become members of the society," and are working zealously for the conversion of their neighbours, to the principles of total abstinence. This shows a very healthy state of the district in the good cause, and it is to be hoped that it will continue and not be nipped in the bud by the opening of a public-house in the district, as is contem plated. The officers of the society deserve " great credit for the excellent enter tainments that they work up for the pleasure of those who attend. The one last night was no exception, to its prede cessors for excellence. The Rev, Haselden in the chair. T. W. Astley made an excellent choir conductor and instrumenta list. The following programme was gone through :—Hymn "by cboir, and opening prayer by Bey. A. W. Webb; music by choir, " I'm Going to Enlist, Boys." This was very nicely rendered by the choir. Dialogue, by two young ladies,. Misses Braithwaite and Kemp, very well done; reading, by a promising youth, capitally done ;, musici choir; after which the Bey. A. "W. Webb gave an excellent address. He referred to the wines of the Bible,

and showed

how they differed from

tbe poisonous stuff sold for wine in these ' days. He also gave some heartstirring incidents of the wretchedness and misery caused by drunkenness, that had. come nnder his own observation. He finished bis address by giving some good sound ad vice to both old and young. Music by tbe choir. Another reading by George B.aith * waite was capitally delivered. Music by the choir, reading by Mr Charles Cooper, and song by a gentleman who was in very good voice. Mr Mather, in a humorous and excellent speech*, proposed a vote of thanks to the chairman, to tho Rev. A. W. Webb, cboir, readers, &c, and Mr Shatters, in a brief speech, seconded, when it was carried by acclamation, the Rev. A. W. Webb pro nouncing the benediction,

•Ten entires were present at the third annual horse parade in connection with the Auckland Agricultural and Pastoral As sociation, which took place at Ellerslie this afternoon.

We would again remind our readers of he course of lectures on nursing being deliv ered by Mrs Moore, under the auspices or the Young Women's Institute, on Saturday after noons. The second of the course was delivered h afternoon, the subject being " Ordinary De a. ofNursing."

BRITISH UNIFORMS.

(To the Editor.)

Slß,—Your correspondent "Q" says that Nahum ii, 3 v., has no remotest connection either with Israel or Britain. Now, it seems to me that it is only and entirely on account of Israel that the prophecy of Nahum is recorded. It is only ..where gentile nations come in contnet with Israel that their history is found worthy of being recorded in the pages Of Holy Writ.

To whom does the latter part of the 12th verse of the Ist chapter refer ? 1 will give the passage, putting my own interpretation in brackets: '.'Though I bave afflicted thee (Israel) I will afflict thee (Israel) no more. For now will I break his (the Assyrian) yoke from off thee (Israel), and will burst thy bonds in sunder." The bursting of Israel's bonds was the raison d'fitre, if one,, may use tho. expression, of the downfall of the kingdom of Assyria. The 15th verse mentions Jusiab. The 2nd verse of the 2nd chapter, which is the verse immediately preceding the disputed text, is as follows: " For the Lord hath turned away ■ the excellency (or pride) of Jacob, as the excellency (or pride) of Israel. For the emptiors have emptied them out and marred their vine branches." Then follows the statement that "the shield of his mighty men is made red, &c." Whose mighty men ? Surely not the men of the Medo-Babylonian army, for the context does not allow it'; they have never once prior to this been alluded to apparently. The "emptiers" must refer to the Assyrians themselves, as it was they that emptied out Israel. " His mighty men " must therefore be ap parently the Lord's mighty men, and the whole passage to the end of the 7th verso may possibly refer to an active part taken by the captive Israelite tribes, in the assault on Nineveh. However all this may be, I have much pleasure in agreeing with " Q " that the Anglo-Israel " theory "—he terms it, I term it "truth"—must bo miserably weak if it depended upon a very obscure passage such as Nahum ii., 3v., to support it, but allow mo to assure him it does not. It is only looked npon as a curious coin cidence tbat tbe Israelites (our ancestors) should have worn scarlet uniforms, and tbat we should have continued the same practice, —lam, &c, ANGLO-ISRAEL.

LIGHT AT KAIPARA HEADS.

A SHORT time ago a number of masters of vessols trading between Kaipara and Lyt> telton addressed a letter to the _ Lyttelton Times, "urging the necessity for a light at the entrance to Kaipara harbour. The follow ng letter appears iv the same paper, The matter is one of very great importance, and ought to receive early attention from the tho Government:—Sir,—Will you grant .me a small space in the columns of your widely-circulating paper, (to beg someone to raise their voice or do something in order to prevent, as far as human means can, this oft-recurring loss of life at Kaipara Heads. A large number of our vessels trade there regularly, and the masters agree in saying that it is one of the most dangerous bar harbours on the coast of New Zealand, and that a light there is urgently needed, so as to enable them to ascertain their position at night, aad in case of necessity to guide them over the bar. And yet, sir, no mention whatever is made in the Government reports lately issued of an Intended light for this perilous place. We have before us to-day a deplorable example of, the dangers to which vessels trading thither are liable—that of the Bona, and not one man left to tell the tale.

It is the thought of the poor bereaved wives, of the fatherless little ones, the deso late homes, which prompts me to write this letter, to pray .someone who has influence to exert themselves to get a light placed at Kaipara Heads, so as to lessen the dangers, and prevent similar disasters in the future. And, sir, 1 think that the having been the means of saving one home from desolation, to say nothing of the blessing of those who would be literally "ready to perish" but for that light, will be sufficient reward for such a one. By inserting this letter in an. early issue you will oblige.—lam, &c., a Sailor's Wifh,

Lyttelton, August 20.

MINING NEWS.

[Fbomßthe Coromandel Mail.]

DURING the week there has been unusual vigour displayed in iona fide mining opera tions, and there are also good results to chronicle. The striking ol gold Scotty's reef in the KAPANQA mine at the 300-f eot level is an important piece of news. This reef, where worked near the surface, yielded a large quantity of the precious metal } and as coarse gold shows freely in the stone broken out of the reef at a depth of 300 feet, it is reasonable to expect the Kapanga to revive once more, and shine with the brilliancy of former days. The old Tokatea has made a fair start again, and we learn that upwards of half a hundredweight of picked stone has been broken out of the low level, .together with good crushing stuff, gold still showing strong in the floor of the drive. There-is now every favourable indication of this level proving payable. The bat tery is at the mouth of the tunnel, and substantial tramways connecting with the battery penetrate into the very heart of the forest. There is a thousand feet of a splendid channel of country on the line of reef yet to be driven on, - and with gold in hand this mine presents to investors unusually good prospects of big returns. The Colonial had a good crushing, obtaining 140|ozs.- of melted gold from llj tons of stuff. The Ness-SIDE have been fortunate in striking rich gold in their low level, and banked over 301bs. of line specimens on Thursday last. ' There was great'competition for the Haebour View,, sold by the Warden. The bidding started at 255., and bids of sb. were given until £10 was reached, when the price rose rapidly by £10 bids, until £150 was reached, at which figure the mine was knocked down to Mr Woollams.

With plenty of good honest work, there is no doubt as to the future of this goldfield; and every miner who has the tme interests of tho field at heart will use his best endeavour to have tho ground worked energetically, and. frustrate any attempt to lock up ground for speculative purposes. The Bismarck have continued'getting good general stuff during the week from the stopes' in the low*level, some of the stone showing gold very freely. The bat tery is steadily at work. The contract to crrry in the intermediate level has been let, and the contractors have started work. Stanley.—Twenty pounds of picked stone were obtained during the week. Union Beach.—Daniels, the tributcr, working on a small leader, obtainee a little gold. , y. >*,-.• ADA.—Yigorons operations will at once be commenced on this ground. Tenders are invited for. driving a level, particulars of which may be obtained from the mine manager on the ground. During the week a lot of slabs and other mining timber were cut in readiness for various purposes. : The Maori Win got gold on the reef driven on from the Tiki ground. The con tractors are at work carrying in the low level. The managers house io not yet built, as the company could not get sawyers to cut the timber. , ■ * . ■ Josephine.—A new claim oh the Wha karoa Creek taken up by Downieand party have obtained very rich prospects of loose gold and small specimen stone.

At tie meeting of the French Literary Association this evening a comedietta by Alfred de Mflsset will be recited, the various.parts being taken by Mrs Geneial Stoddard, Miss Gruchy, Mr A. Villeval, and Messrs John and James Ansenne. A large attendance of members and visitors is expected.

The Supreme Court sat in banco this morning, Bis Honor Mr Justice Gillies presiding. The bnlk of the business con sisted of applications for orders of discharge from'bankruptcy. These were granted in the cases of William Gibbons Harp, Rudolph Prohlj George Canwell, and Lawrence Cosgrave ; but the certificates of Morris Evans and John Benwick were suspended for six months; and that of Boak and Watson, store keepers, for twelve monhts. Evans and jßenwick had kept their books impro perly, and the latter had also given a bill of sale just prior, to the declaration of bis insolvency, while Doat and Watson had. not., only kept- their books in a careless way, but according to their own shewing had been addicted to extrava gant living. In January last, they were £300 to the good, and [yet in July (when they filed) there was a deficit of £300. Mr Thorne appeared for the debtors and Mr Theodore Cooper for the opposing cred itors, Messrs Bargood and Co. Mr Thorne appeared for Evan3 and Mr Tyler for Renwiek. In Chappell and wife v. Fraser and Cleghom (motion for decree), It was decided to take the motion into the Court of Appeal. Mr Theo. Cooper dp- Deared for the plaintiff*, and Mr E. Hes keth for defendants,

The trustees of tbo Domain Cricket Ground have made arrangements tor tbe construction of seats at various spots within the enclosure, and a great conve nience will thus be afforded to the patrons of the various sports and games which take place on the ground. This will es pecially be the case with ladies, for whom, strangely euough,seats have nothitherto been provided. The contract has been»let to Mr Sam White, and it is intended tbat about SO seats shall ba constructed in positions which will afford grateful shelter from the rays of the sun, and at the same time enable tho occupants to exercise a good view, oi the proceedings on the ground. Within the last month, the trustees have also had the ground thoroughly rolled and top dressed" in preparation for the cricket season, which will be opened with several matches next Saturday.'
