THEATRE ROYAL.

QNB of the best homes of the season assemblodat tha Theatre Royal last even, ing; on the occasion of the production of "Foiled," an Australian-drama, by Mr Laako and Company. The interest of the play centres in a series of highly-exciting situations and scenic effecis. Paul Dauvera (Mr W. H. Leake), a squatter from the Barwon, after a lengthy seclusion in the busb, returns to the haunts of civilization, and visits an old fiiend of his father's, Andrew Scaradalo (Mr Harry Ssfton), a ictired squatter. Paul discovers that Ada Scaredalo (Miss Maggie.Knight), for whom, in dnys gone by, he had a soft place in his heart, is engaged to be married to bis own brother, Cecil Danvers (Mr Gerald Dillon) a swell of the Dun dreary type. Andrew Scaradale, before his marriage with Ada's mother, (Mrs Me- QoTVan), had contracted a matrimonial alliance with a beautiful ex-convict, Mag delen Ward, (Miss Jenny Watt Tanner who disgraces him and is supposed to have been drowned. In the first ucr, the woman arrives at the .Scarsdale mansion, in com pany with Philip Kaye alias Rutheven, (Mr .Arthur Elliot),and bis pal.Abel Crouch,(Mr Lachlan McGowan.) Kaye had been mar ried to Magdelen prior to her meeting old Scan dale, but pretends to be the villain's brother in the hope of ousting the legal wife. The meeting of the ex-squatter with the woman he had long supposed to be dead has so strong an effect on him that he drops dead. Cecil, believing a stain to rest en Ada, is released from his engagement, and she subsequently promises to marry Paul should he be successful in removing the blot on her name. Vice appears to be about to triumph, and the ex-convicts come prepared to take pesseaaion of the property, when Pan), through the agency of an old ex-overseer of a road gang (Mr J. J. Walsh) and his faithful black servant Hippai (Mr J. P. West), discovers the previous marriage of Rutheven to Magdelen. The villuia .attempts to murder tho woman by throwing her over a cliff,, but sho is rescued by Paul and Hippai, and she.having made a fall confession, ex pires. Phil finds that the game is, up, inveigles Paul to a saw-mill, »nd treacher ously stealing up behind him,binds him to a log which is being sawn, Just as there is every prospect* of his suffering a horrible death, Crouch, who has turned on his pal;: appears on the scene, and Rutheven is shot dead. This latter scene is very effective, the interior of a saw-mill with the machinery in motion being well represented. The rescue' of Magdelen from the ledge on the cliff is also a clever piece of dramatic representation. There.were a few hitches in the mechanical effects, but these will, no doubt, disappear is future appearances. Nearly all "the scenery is new, and we understand "that some of.,the most effective .pieces were painted by Mr Harry tseJton. They cer tainly do credit to his artistic skill. Mr Cole; the mechanist, also deserves a Word' of praise. From a spectacular point of riew, -ihe drama is the most ambitions attempt yet placed on -the Auck land stage, ana for this merit alone, is ; well worth seeing. The language is good and very natural, and many of the* characters afford scope for the representa tion of strong and subtle emotions. Of Mr Leake's acting we can speak in terms of the highest praiae; hit voice is wonderfully attractive, and his thorough comprehension of the requirements of every part he under takes, in sufficient to throw a charm into a very mediocre character. One great point in his favour i» that he is < never guilty. o£ thrusting himself into undue prominence— a fault common in ' stars' of much* 7 greater magnitude. Mr Arthur Elliott played the villain of the piece to perfection. It is a part which the author has endowed with all the bad qualities of a vicious and em bittered life, and it is, perhaps, impossible, in its representation, ty> over-do it. Mr Me- Gowan's Crouch was a capital piece of low comedy acting, the drunken scene appeal ing especially to the risible faculties. Miss' Jennie Watt Tanner excelled herself in the character of the penitent ex-convict. Her voice is a mirror of every passion she wishes to portray,' and She is in every sense of the word a true actress. Mr Gerald Dillon's Cecil Danvers is the weak point of the cast-—he knows his part well and talks. We will take the opportunity of referring to the other members of the company in some future notice.

Query: Can any man work SJ hours—s days in the weak—without encroaching on the 8 hours system? Mr Shatter spoke us a sensible man, knowing the value of labour. He felt thankful for the 8 hours Byatom. Mr Kean wanted something better. To my mind, if the working men in tin building trade are wise, they had better let wall alone—it will be the getting in o( the thin edge of the wedge to increase 'the hours of labour. Sooner or later, there wilt be any amount of agitation to increase the day's work to 81 hours, i his statement will Do questioned by some, but human nature is the sumo.

It the Government wanted to check tho enrolment of voters' namus, he thinks they hare adopted a good means ot doing so. NoKFOr.K-STHSKT No. 2 writes expressing the opinion that the preseut Ponsonby Board, con sidering the short time it has been in oflico, and itb limited funds.has done more for Spriußtanic than the last two boards together. He <;on olndea:'"l certainly think 'Fair Play'should give nil name, as it is nicely the ratepayers would take into consideration tbe advisability of making him Chairman ot tha next Board. In reference to the particular road (Wallace-street) that was picked over,l have only to say ths ratepayers of Ponsonby are the best Judge* of how they will have their roads made. This par ticular street that such a noise is made about, was done properly, and it is not sear to Mr Field's house, which 'Fair Play' well knows." Rsd TAPiisit.—"Now Chum" writes des cribing hu troubles in trying to flnd whether a certain bill of aale was registered. After extensive Inquiries he found that the Supremo Court was the proper plaoe to apply to. After dually discovering the offloe ht> was told:— •• There is two shillings to pay." He continues: "I tender the coin; no use—can't take that—you must not a 2s law court stamp.

It such is the case, I don c see how men can enjoy lite, because when thoy have done tholr worK at night, they mast, of neosssity, feel more fit for bod than to sit down to improve tholr minds, or enjoy the society of their families/ "Waitkmata Babies" replies to "Guar dian's " letter about the Northoote ferry service, the substance of bis rejoinder baing: "'Guar dian ' has evidently studied the art ot managing babies at small cost, and always takes care that their food shall not ba strong enouyh to enable them to throw of parental control. Keep ' them weak,' keep 'them down;' parental control is sweet and profitable so long as there ia any thing left o( the estate." There can be no doubt t :at the proper course for Northoote to adopt, it dissatisfied with tha present service, is to unite together and start a boat ot their own.

Why, what could tbe expanse possibly be—the amount of expense? Probably ten pounds per annnm; unless tbe object of the notification is to throw aMd water on the petition, it is hardly possible to imagine that ' such .a small outlay could affect tha question apart from the faot that the petitioners statad they were willing to help in that direction should it be required." Query *■ adds: It must be borne in mind a great portion of the coßt of the new building was a grant from the revenue of the colony. Our correspondent ooncludes, he has no doubt of the result if the honest convictions of the msjdrity are recorded, unbiassed by those who oppose such matter on what they term principle, the prlnoiple that believes in clubs for the wealthy open oh Snndays, but'nothing for the poorer or humbler classes. . • Bbown os Mosks.—"Fairness" replies to "Enquirer's" strictures nnder thin head."He. says that, haying attended Mr Brown's lectures, he " can state without fear of honest contradic tion (not the carping contradiction of a preju diced mind bent upon fault-finding, and who prevaricates and catches at straws in doing so), that Mr Brown is a deeply read theologian, and one who possesses considerable ability in im parting knowledge to others. Tbe proof of the pudding 'lies in tho eating, and, as a proof of this, nothing further. I think, need be ad vanced than the' fact that the Choral Ball is crowded Sunday night after Sunday night by mostly thinking men to heir him." He says of the reception of Mr Brown's explana tion on • Hnnday night :—" I was one of tho very large audience present, but tailed to notice in the slightest degree the incredulity spoken of by, ' Wnnulrer,'; but, on the contrary, I did notice' that those around me, by their close attention, expression, and attitude, evidenoed their more than satisfaction with" tho explanation given. For Instance, I heard dose to me audibly ejacu lated, .'He's tithe' 'Entuirer' must hare been wrapped in bis little mantle of conceit when he 'detected this 'manifest'incredulity' spoken of."

KAWAKAWA, Monday.

Mr. Hobbs, a candidate for Bay of Islands, addressed the electors hore on Saturday evening last. Mr T. P. Moody, J.P., occupied the chair. In the course of his remarks, Mr Hobbs returned thanks for the requisition he had received, and stated it elected, he would not be bound to any party. When he was returned for Franklin South, he admired the Grey policy, but he disagreed with the administration. He believed the present County system and that of Road Boards, with any amend ments that might be reauired to make the two operate harmoniously, to be the correct thing. He was in favour of the present system of education; the excluding of the Bible was the most judicious way of con forming ltd the wishes of all sects> He then addressed himself to the land question, and extolled Mr Firth, who though a large land owner, was thoroughly unselfish with his possessions. On the" land question he (the speaker), gavo Sir Geo. Grey credit for his views, and with him agreed that native land should not be monopolised by land sharks. The present Government and its policy was a credit to all concerned. They had not the squandering of public money, especially among the natives, as was the case during the Grey administration. He was in favour of Local Option, and believed in the Railway Construction Bill. At the conclusion of the address, a vote of con fidence was passed.
