PARLIAMENTARY.

(FROM OUR SPECIAL REPORTER.)

THE HOiNOKAKIUM. fcCANDAL.

WKLIjI * G TON, this day. The following is the principal portion of Mr Reeves' evidence before a Select Committee re the honorarium transaction. In reply to the Chairman, Mr Reeves said:—"The facts are simply these : Last session 1 happened to be in the lobby of the House of Representatives, and certain hon. mem bers there were talking about the question of honorarium. It was about the time when the hon. Mr Seddon's bill was under consideration as to the abolition of honor, arium altogether, and hon. members talked about it and said they thought, they would get about a hundred guineas. I said, "Oh, no, I will guarantee £150." The hon. member of the Council said " I will take it." I said I would give a cheque there and then for the £150, but he said, " Oh, that is no matter." 'ihe understanding was that if over £150 was noted, I was to get the difference, and if not so much I was to make up. Mr Wood was one of the gentlemen. Ido not feel justified in mentioning the other gentleman's name unless insisted en by the Committee." On being pressed, Reeves said it was the Bon. R. Campbell, and that at the end of the seassion he received from Mr Campbell the amount in excess of the £150, namely, £30. The Hon. Mr Wilson: Was the arrangement carried out with Mr Wood 1 Mr REEVES : f o ; I intended writing a Dote to Mr Wood before the cud of the session. I thought no doubt he had lorgotten it. The other even ing, in the lobbies, it came up quite acci dentally. I think Mr Brown mentioned it. 1 regret very much that it came out, if any unpleasantness is likely to arise from it. Those are' the plain facts as far as I re member. . . n ■ Mr Wilson : Was there any payment of money at the time? • ; ', t , Mr Reeves : No. There was no pay; ment. I offered a cheque in each cane,.but they said it did not matter just then about that • ' Mr Wood cross-examined Mr Reeves at considerable length. In reply to the ques tion as to whether Mr Reeves had ever asked him (Mr Wood) for the money Mr Reeves'said pointedly : /.'I sometimes make bets with gentlemen ; I never dun a gentle man for a bet unless I thought ho had omitted altogether.'': ,■-,-■■■ : The Hon. Mr Mantbll: From-the manner in which you' say1 you .treated this, jou '.lead; the; committee .to imagine you considered it in the light of a bet. ••■•• m Mr Reeves : That was actually itr It was a guarantee almost in the light of ,a v bet '■ .

'■ c ■> -STONEWALLING. •--■' , The position is unaltered. The-Nelson members continue, and will continue stone walling;/with the tacit sympathy of Auck land members and others who dislike and, dread from various causes the ..Representa tion Bill and the great preponderance it will give to Otago and Canterbury in the future government of the colony and expenditure of futare;loans., Many, .both North and South1 object to certain clauses, such as single elfectorates with plurat votes, .but the main differences are between the" two islands! Theinevitableresult will be'the re-bTganisation. of parties based more on localities than principles. .The Heuseis rapidly bordering to this aspect of affairs. DIRECT STEAM COMMUNICATION. The following is the report of the' Joint Committee on a direct steam Service with <sreatßritain :—(1) That six ships/would be necessary for such service. (2) That such ships must be built specially for the New Zealand trade; of a draft .Of water which would enable them to enter the chief ports in the colony. They should be of at least 4000 tons register, and in every rer.pect of the highest class. They should, combine the -■ necessary re quirements for- the carriage of passengers, mails, and cargo, at' a seagoing speed of not less than 12J knots. (3) That,the probable capital which would be required for the efficient equipment of/ such a ser-. vice -wonld not exceed one million sterl ing, , (4) Thatj.the Government should be empowered to invite tenders and enter into' an agreement with,, 'any person or who: may be prepared to undertake such service. : That the. basis of such agreement should.be a guar antee on the part of; the' colony for not ex ceeding s^ven years; of a minimum rate ot interest, say 6 per cent. per. annum on the actual amount of the cost ,ofi the'steamers," provided such guarantee shall not "be ,uppn_ an amount exceeding one 'million,- and- that the: net annual earningsj'of the* service shall go towards the reduction of the payment of interest so guaranteed'provided alao.tha^n the' event, pf such..net earnings., being^in excess*Of the '6 per cent; guaranteed;'such excess. shall belong1 to the contractor reckoning'the net earning, not more than 10 per cent, shall be allowed lor deprecia tion. (6) In the event of contractors being; fpund, within the colony willing to under-, take the service on the aforementioned haßis-caeteris parikwi'-, a preference should be given to such.' (7) The Committee has obtained an accurate Return of the exports, and imports between- New Zealand anaV'the United-Kingdom direct during the past year. From' this it will-be. seen that 198 direct ships have been employed during the year, carryings,9o4 passengers' and: 229,199, tons; of cargo, r" % he estimated value, of the cargo, amounts to £8i533;552. Estimates have;als£ teen procured as to the probable-increase Of exports which will Result from the.succesaful application! of ±he,\neezing: processrites'1 estimated that 'at :least' 500!. tons rof,frozen;, meat will 'be shipped monthly.: It .further appears.in' evidence that., a considerable amount of merchandise is regularly finding its way/from Europe, te, New Zealand; by steamer to Melbourne,'which.it may fairly, be presumed would be shipped by; direct steamer were such a service' established.1 8. Taking the postal receipts into couside.v ration, and without speculating oh the ex tension ot our commerce, which is year by year developing itself more and more, the Committee is of opinion that, even at the outset, tne earnings of a well-cdnducted1 steam service are not likely to be such,,as; would materially reduce the sum payable, in respect of the colonial guarantee;.. as indicating. some of the collateral ad vantages which would result to the colony from the establishment of the service now in question, the Committee, would call special attention. ;to two statements ;whicn appear in the evidence of the ■ managing director of the Onion Steam Shipping Com pany to the effect that eaph.^,vessel outward would take two thou^ancTtorjfl of New.Zear. land coal, and .that the TV.esselsidisburse mehts in'the colony would be £3000 each trip (10) I-n as much from 18 months to 2 years from I date of contract must elapse, before the actual working of; the proposed service could be initiatedjtheXorarmtte^ would recommend that the Government, he authorised before the close of the1 present, session of Parliament to take the necessary .action in the matter.

RESIDENT MAGISTRATE'S COURT.—This Day.

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

Maclean v. Brown and Garlick (Property lax Case). Mr H. WiJliamson, Crown Solicitor, appeared for the plaintiff; and Mr Theo. Cooper for the defendants. A special sitting of the Court was held this morning, when His Worship delivered the following importaut judgment :— " In this case, the plaintiff, on behalf of the Crown, seeks to recover from defendants, 1 as Trustees in the assigned estate of R. J. Davidson, £7 4s 2d, being amount of Pro perty Tax payable by defendants—as such Trustees as aforesaid in respect of certain property of the said R. J. Davidson—on the Bth day of March, 1881, and the 22nd day of March, 1881; and also the further sum of i 14s sd, being ten per centum on the above amount payable by defendants as such Trustees as aforesaid.' To save time, defendants agreed to admit all formal matters which would have been necessary to establish plaintitt's right as against Davidson. In addition, plaintiff put iv a deed dated 20th December, 1880, whereby this Mr Davidson conveyed and assigned by general words, without any particular descriptions, 'all his real and personal estate' to defendants upon trust to ad : minister it for the benefit of his (Davidson's) creditors, and without any expressed resulting trust in his favor. It did not appear that the land (held under land transfer title)," in respect of wliich Davidson was assessed, had ever been vested in him. Plaintiff also put in a cOpy of the assessment roll, and, as showing a right to interest, and,as,a,preliminary to the right of action, proved that'he had on 23rd March last, poatediai notice* under Section 70, di're6ted to Davidson. Plaintiffs ought to charge de-, fendants with personal liability, on theories based on several sections of the Property Assessment Act, viz.,1 Section 19': 'Every Trustee shall be assessed separately, in respect, o£eyery:properity or trust which he represents, and shall be chargeable with the tax payable in respect thereof, in the same manuqr- as, if such property; "were his own.' Tfiw.iheery fails, because it was Davidson and ;not the defendant^ who was assessed,, apd.jth.^sji ctjon only to cases where,' property is outatandiug iv Trustees,' at the tlme.j of i-assessment;: Section 84: Every such person in whom any such .land shall be vestedi'-D'ya'lienatiou ordthef derivative title," after the date upon' which notice of the payment of the tax was given as herein after provided, shall be liable to the pay; meat of suchHax, jand the same shall bei £ : charge on the land affected thereby, and shall have priority over any incurnbrance ior interest created by the owner or any person interested therein, and in the event of the non-payment thereof, every person hereby made accountable, shall be deemed to be i.a/debtor to Her Majesty,.-in the amount of the" tax for which he is so made accountable. This theory fails because, as it does not appear that tbe.land was vested in Davidson, the'defendants could not derive title from him. Section 89 has no bearing on the case. In the event of failure in showing personal liability, plaintiff relied on the Debtors and Creditors Act, 1876. Sectiou 102, Sub-section 1. ' The trustee of the estate of any debtor shall, subject to ■the provisions of this Act, pay and apply the proceeds of debtors property in manner following: 1. In payment of all taxes, costs, charges, allowances, and expenses properly incurred by or payable by him in the execution of his,office under this Act.' Now', fthe" deed bf •December,' l§.Bo, either'brought the transaction within the operation of the Debtors and Creditors Act, or it did not,- In the former.event, there is :an end of" thei argument, for the word "debtor" is, by the interpretation clause, 'confined to "a debtor who shall come under the operation of this Act." In'the latter event it appears to me that plaintiffs proper, and indeed only, course is to prove his debt?, on doing which^the Court would in due course give him the advantage due to his'preferential claim, assuming, as I think he is entitled to do, that his claim is a "tax" within the section, notwithstanding that at the passing of the Debtors and Creditor's Act there were no Queen's taxes' accruing ,in the colony. I have not dis covered in the English Bankruptcy Acts anything expressly modifying the rights of Her Majesty in iespect of debts due to the Crown, yet in Deacon's Law of Bankruptcy 'the chapter on rates and taxes starts by saying "that if bankrupt's estate be in arrear for rates and taxes, the collector'or assessor seems the proper person to prove, land he ought at time of proof to produce his appointment that the Court may judge iof-its legality ;" while the English statutes |l2£and ]$ Victoria, o, 106, sec. 166; enacts tKat the Court out of estate shall' 'order payment of all; duties and assessed (taxes assessed on bankrupt. Further, .it is 'to benoticed that sub-Section 3, in the.Sec tion relied on, provides that it estate beun sufficientto meet all preferential debts, they shall, abate in equal proportions between themselves; but plaintiff proposes to-dis regard this, and acton-the principal of first 'come b.e'st served,1 by suing. It may, more over, turn out that defendants are not 'entitled to the monies in hand, which con stitute the ' so-called assets.' ' Plaintiff nonsuited."

: Mr.Theo.'iCppperjapplied ;for,:costs.rr-His ■Wofsnipf There isVrule thatno costs can be levied against Her Majesty! "I think this is a proper case for costs, and I will so state. I Mr Williamson said1 that he would for (ward iHifi Worship's" recom'metidafiori to the Government, and had- no doubt that they [would follow! same. OCo'sfo were fixed at j£3 2s; His Worshipideclining to make an order-lor-samef-but-recommending the: pay * bent by the Crow^.rrMr ,\Villiamson on behalf j>f the_CroWu'' aEpiiea_forJeaye to appeal," wßicF wasgrantea. i The Court then rose.

LEACTURE ON "CARLYLE."

At the meeting of St. Jamas' Mutual Improvement Asssocistion last evening, Mr J. L. Kiasella delivered an able critical and biographical lecture, on..'; Thomas, In a concise"'and interesting "style, the lecturer recounted the great man's career, pointed out the various steps in his ascent to notoriety and fame, and explained the preiudicesyagajnst whicn-he.had to fight, arid' the J'particular views "with which he identified himself. Carlyla was born in December, 1795, and was ol humble Scottish parentage. At the age of 15 he entered the University, and during his career there, extending over 14 years, he was associated with Duncan, Pla.yfair, Dr Thos. Brownjand other well-known men. In 1814 he. took charge of the Annau,school and 'in 1818 ne'made' his first literary effort in the form of an article on Montesquieu in Brew ster's Cyclopaedia followed-by an article on Montaigne. In 1823 appeared his articles 6a Schiller in the London Magazine, and about'the same .time,; hsputjlished a.trqpsla-: tiou of Goethe's " Wilhelm Meister." In 1826 he -married Miss... Jane - Welsh, a reputed descendent ot the reformer Jolin Knox.-M- After ■, ten-years of comparative literary"idleness,1 he contributed several, magazine articles«oon.v;Celebrated men of letters which in their turn, were succeeded ttjr ■ ' ''Sartor ■" Re'sartus." this remarkable work was coldly received in England, but in 5- America it achieved a triumphant ,success—being received with wonderful eagerness, 1 and read by all classes ■Vrith extraordinary avidity. From 1834 to 1837 Carlyle devoted himself to German literature/hut in the latter year appeared; what many considered his master-piece, and which, in some respects, might be styled a "book of books," viz., his •'French Revolution." It stood ab solutely alone. Inhere was nothing in the whole range of literature like it. It was difficult toEstimate the meaning and scope ot the: work. Carlyle himself had Spoken ot it as a series of phantasmagoria. During 1833 and' 1839, Carlyle delivered several cour^f lectures, and also pub •lished his work on Chartism, and about the lame time lectured ,on « Heroes andH wo- " After Enumerating the principal of Carlvle's works and their characteristics, Mr Kinsella proceeded Jo sum up his con clusions.
