RE BARQUE GLIMPSE.

(To the Editor.)

SIR,— Seeing tftat CAptain Norris has re orJe&ea1 the question iU to the seaworthiness of Ine,illtdted barque Glimpse, and seeing thai he condemns my report, also my actions, which I shall not attempt to refute, I would, in reply to his letter, just ask one question—"Can CaptainNorrisdeny telling a captain of the Glimpse to be careful how he let go his anchor, for fear of hauling the bows out of her 1" I may also say that his report in the " Sydney Morning Herald " does not agree with his letter in the " Herald "of this morning. But why, sir, stir up the matter further. What more damnable proof is required than that the vessel from sheer weakness collapsed ?— I am, &c, David Gouk.

OUTRAGES IN THE SOUTH SEAS.

ATTACK ON THE ATLANTIC.

FfiOM Sydney papers of November 12th, we have full particulars of the attack of the schooner Atlantic, intelligence cf which reached us by cable a few days since. The Sydney Morning "Herald" sayu: — "A plan had been concocted by the Bubiana natives, to attack and] it possible, take the Atlantic, in order to get a supply of skulls. At early morn the people came off in canoes, unarmed, their ostensible purpose being to trade. During the day canoes owned by the Kubiana people joined the others, taking concealed arms with them. The mate of the vessel, rendered suspicious by experience and the too frequent massacres which have taken place in the islands, took the precaution to see that the arms were all ready for any emergency, and was walk ing the deck, carrying a bayonet in his hand, pretending to clean it. Suddenly, as by instinct, he felt as if he was about to be attacked from behind, sprang aside, and the murder-dealing tomahawk, aimed to cleave bis skull, missed its mark, inflicting a com paratively slight wound on his shoulder. Quick as lightning, he plunged the bayonet through the body of his assailant. A geueral melee ensued on board, but, the crew being prepared, the natives found them selves overmatched and fled, having killed but one of the crew of the Atlantic —a black boy—who, on their side, shot a cumber oi the treacherous wretches during the short struggle fur life and death. The Miranda, on receipt of this information, proceeded to Jurio, calling on the way at the island of Bonongah, in order to secure the services as guide to Jurio of a well known friendly chief named " Sandy." The vessel stood off and on whilst an armed boat was sent, guided by Captain Cable of a regular trading schooner, in search of Sandy's village; arrived opposite which they entered into friendly conversation with four unarmed natives, who informed them that Sandy's village was close at hand, but he was absent. Whilst talking, two of the natives seized an ammunition pouch and some clothing off the bow scat and de camped, and simultaneously a number of others, armed with tomahawks, were ob served making down towards the boat. Captain Cable cried out, " To your rifles 1" on hearing which the. natives vanished like magic. A friendly chief, named Mingoe, offered to conduct the captain of the Miranda and his force to the villages of the culprits, a short distance off; and he was actually in the boat for the purpose when Captain Dawson, being informed that if the mau went, his life would certainly be eventually forfeited, put the man ashore with a good reward ; for, spite of the known danger he was incurring, he desired to go, saying he did not earn, " suppose they want to kill-emand meby-and by." Captain Cable offered and went in Mingoe's place, Everything was arranged for the" purpose of taking the Rubiana people oy sur prise. Two well-armed boats, accompanied by Captain Dawson, left the ship before she was anchored, and arrived ai the village jast after daylight; but even at that early hour the guilty natives, knowing what they deserved, had decamped, and nothing but empty villages were found. These were destroyed, and also ten large war canoes, the latter being for long the terror of the neighbouring islands—the people of Kubinia being notorious "skull-hunters." The Miranda returned the same day to Konon gab, arriving there at 4 p.m. An armed boat was sent on shore, Captain Cable going with the Lieutenant for the purpose of demanding restitution of property sto.len from the boat the day previous. They were met by a large number of well-armed natives who assumed a most menacing atti tude in the dry bed of a river studded with immense boulders, behind which they hid themselves whilst a parley was held, which resulted in the restoration of such clothes as were stolen and an ammunition pouch, from which, however, the contents had been taken. Upon the boat s crew re-embarkiDg to rejoin the vessel, the natives opened fire upon them, one bullet striking within six yards of the men, who immediately fol lowed the order to " fire," although pro bably with no other effect than saving themselves from further attack. Upon their return to the vessel, they found the friendly chief "Sandy," who had come off in his canoe to inform them that his village was within 300 or 400 yards of that of the natives who had robbed and fired upon the Miranda's boat. He waa quite fearless, and proudly showed an engraved plate which he had taken off a rifle, and which testified that it was made a present to him for having been the means of saving the lives of a shipwrecked crew, who but for him would have been killed and eaten. He said that he had " plenty talk along another man, big ship, plenty light em " if they continued to steal and murder. They only derided and laughed at the "big ship," as it had become a rule for a few shots to be fired over their heads or over their villages. After dark, three shells went thundering in the direction of the village, teaching the treacherous savages to count upon something next morning for having fired on the boat when peaceably returning. Next morning, at hair-past 6, a torce was landed, and the war canoes and village of the belligerent natives were destroyed, Sandy's village being carefully guarded from injury.

KAIPARA STEAMSHIP COM PANY.

The third annual meeting of the Kaipara Steamship Company wa3 held this after noon, Mr L. D. Nathanpresiding, when the following report was presented i—

"The direotora havfi mueil pleasure iii presenting the shareholders the annual balance-sheet, to 31st October, ,1881, which Also includes details of the interim balance sheet, adopted by them on the 7th July last. The directors have to report that, after writing oil' for extraordinary repairs to steamers, salary, claims, allowances, depre ciation, and miscellaneous charges, tbc sum ot £1,271 &s 6d, and for interest; £624 Hs 3d, there remains £1,281 9s 7d to the credit of profit and loas for the current year. The overdraft during the past year has been considerably reduced out of earnings, and the directors have recently obtained from the bank a reduction in interest of 2_ per cent.. od the account current. Your directors re gret their not having succeeded in disposing of any ot the steamers now laid up, although every effort has been exerted tor that pur pose, but they anticipate that the approach of summer, combined with the improved prosperity of this portion of the colony, will shortly enable your directors to place some of them. The two directors who retire are Mr E. Mitchel. eon and Mr C. Clark, who ate eligible for re-election without notice. Also an auditor for the year will have to be appointed. Mr John Waymouth offers himself for re election.'*

The Chairman moved nnd Mr Picklnen seconded the adoption of the report and balance sheet.

Mr Melville criticised tbo balance sheet, pointing out that the Bteamers earnings had only amounted to £270. It seemed to them that the Company should either sell out to some other combination or place in some profitable trade the boats at present lying idle. Mr F. Hull characterised the item "ac counts due on forfeited shares," as a fictitious asset, and he held that the total profit tor the year had only amounted to £216 6s Sd, while the manage ment of the Company had correspondently increased by £210. Besides this nothing had been written off for tne depreciation of the boats, In the face of these, and other things which he enumerated, he considered that neither tne report nor balance-sheet was satisfactory. The idle boats should be sold off, in order to reduce the very large overdraft

HARBOUR BOARD.

The ordinary fortnightly meeting of the Harbour Board was held this afternoon- There were present: Messrs F. E. Comp. ton (in the chair), Waddell, Thompson, Mc- Kenzie, Owen, McMillan, Stone, Aicken, Masetield,

.BOAT Shed.—Mr F. D. Fenton applied on behalf of the boys of the Auckland College and Grammar School tor permission to pv.t up a boat shod on the eeawall near Wynyard Pier.—The Chief Harbour-master reported that he had no objection to the erection of the shed, except that the reclama tion now going on within the intake might extend to the site applied for.—The applica tion was granted ou the condition that the shed should be removed again when neccessary. . Wharfage on Bottles.—Mr George Cozens, agent for Messrs Beetham and Co., wrote, stating that by the Stracathro wera imported 35 crates of empty bottles, of 12J tons measurement, and 4J tons weight. According to the former rule, the rate would ba 24s Gd, and by the latter 9s. He asked, therefore, that wharfage on bottles be paid according to weight. Agreed that no concession should be made.

Saving Life.—Mr D. E. Mcwonald, Engineer, reported that William Marshall, one of the workmen in his department, had very bravely saved a boy named Brown from being drowned. This was the third person he had rescued.—lt was agreed to apply for the Koyal Humane Society's medal for Mr Marshall.

Devonpobt Whaef.—Mr D. E. Mc- Donald, engineer, reported that the Devon port wharf was in a dilapidated state, the whole of the piles and framing of the super structure having perished. He recom mended the erection of a new wharf, at a cost of £650. No object would be gained by carrying it out 250 feet farther, owing to the shallowness of the water. The cost of widening the main portion of Victoria wharf, as shown on .the plaD, would be £620. Ample accommodation could be pro vided for three steamers at a cost of £380. Waiting-rooms could be erected on Victoria and Devonport wharves tor £280.—The Engineer's report was deferred, pending action at next meeting. Fence. —Mr J. B. Kussell wrpte in refer ence to a notice to fence herewith, stating that a cheaper fence than that required by law would suit him. He was willing to meet with the Engineer and arrange with him what was best.

Loan.—Mr E. F. Menzies, Napier, wrote as agent for an English financial firm, offering to lend any sum from £60,000, for Harbour Works.

Rates.—Notice from Mr Eller, request ing payment of £7 2s lid, rates due on Mr Stephen's allotment, Custom-house-street West.
