PRIXCES* .:"'-••,-■; Feoh a gentleman who returned yesterday after a vlit to the Hot Lakes via Tauranga, -, we learn that the road, considering the ( season of the year, is in.good condition.. 1 There is really nothing in the way of the - proposed visit of the young Princes to the , ilistrict, and to-let them go away without -, seeing these'wonders would be as foolish as -1 if they went to Egypt, without seeing the , Pyramids, or to Canada without- seeing . Niagara, That they werenot coddled by a tewlussy peoDle iv the cities of the neigh- ,; bouring colonies is proved by . "their indulgence in the sports characteristic ; of the colonies they were visiting, giving them'at the same time'a good - insight into colonial life. The follow-, ing account of a kangaroo^ hunt pot up for their amusement; in South Aus tralia is a sample of their entertainment at an up-country station in that colony:— " The princes were up betimes ori Tuesday morning, eager t» join in the day's sport, which it was arranged should take the form of a kangaroo bunt; and afteran early break fast preparations were at oricemade for start ing for the rendezvous, which was fixed at the Gilperi Paddock, about four miles back from the house. All the available saddle horses and traps on the station were brought up to the house for the accommodation of the party, which was composed as follows: Their Royal High nesses, Mr T. Bowman, Messrs E. and J. Bown (his nephews), the Kcv. J, N. Dalton, M.A., Lieutenant Jervois, Sub- Lieutenant Henderson; Messrs. J. L. Stirling and A., H. Landseer, M.P. s ; Messrs. S. Davenport, J.P., Sntton, and I'hring; Captain Wallis, of the Despatch ; Mr Green, Mr Bowman's town manager; Mr Petersen, the station overseer, and several other gentlemen. Mrs Davenport, Mrs Warland, and the Misses Bowman followed the sportsmen all day in a: buggy; and in the afternoon some of the neighbours rode over to j:be present at the hunt. The day was very line, and at 9 o'clock a start was made from the house, the Princes, accompanied by their, tutor, being driven to Gilpen paddock by their host. A num. ber ot aboriginals had already been dis patched to the scene of the day's operations to' beat up game,1 and as soon 'as the mounted members of the royal party had got away from the house they put spurs to' their horses and rode off to assist'in the beating, as the first portion of the day's programme : was to conrisist inoi-e of a battue' than a hunt "properly so called. The spot chosen by Mr Bow man in which to place the. Princes and the nther gentlemen with them having guns was near a scrubby corner'of the paddock towards which the beaters had been direc ted to head the kangaroos; and about 200 yurds away from one of the bush fences the party, counting about a dozen guns, was ar ranged in a line, with considerable intervals between each. The position was a good one in every respect,' and some of; the sportsmen could cover the corner where the kangaroos were, in the ' habit of jumping over the fencing into the adjoining paddock. "Their!Royal High-' riesses had nbPlorig to wait in ambush for the game to ■ come' Jalong.1 In a few minutes were heard the distant shouts of of the beaters, the cracking of their whips, and occasionally a pistol shot fired by sooie horseman in the' chase, and soon upon the scrubby top' of .the nearest rise, kangaroos In profusion Were seen-hopping towards_the' ambuscade. ■' On they cameV self-conscious of escape no'donbt; but the crack of Prince George's gun in frbnt at once dismayed-the lot,' 'and they rushed about hither and thither right among the gans," which made great havoc in their numbers. Prince George was the first to fire, but his brother' wasthe first to kill, though the animal was riot'a-very big one. Indeed,''" old men" of any size were scarce'all day. The line kept popping away af'the;'game 'for fully twenty minutes before all which had been raised were killed or got away, when' amove was'made into the next paddock,_where the same tactics 'were employed ai in the'first one, with even greater success, there being .more kills than before. ' The Princes were very fortunate in always beingclose to'the :game, and they proved themselves to be' good 'shots by;the amount -of execution they did. With the sport; in-the second paddock ' the battue as -an:' organised affair ceased,' though the guns "were employed ' occasionally after ■ luncheon, for which' the tablecloth- was "spread upon the bright green turf of a shady knoll. The' morning's exertions had" given all an excellentappetite, andluncheon arid the day's doings were discussed'together 'with considerable energy.;- In'the'afternoon the hunt [proper 'took place, the 'Princes'being mounted on 'two sturdy piebalds.' Every body; ladies ns woll as gentlemen, who.had' horses joined'in the chase, and Sport being plentiful and'some of the game very strong, there was a good s deal of hard. riding to :b'e dbne by'those who -wished to be' in at 'the finish. Several times the'calvacade, With the dogs in (full cry, swept dowri! a ilbng flat '"in-full sight of'r the' driving party,'add so j allowed', them to have a'very pretty-view'of "the hunt. The thick scruh impeded the riders con siderably at times, .and. the-existence ot \yombat holes in the ground, made .matters a little dangei!ous'for the' horsemen, but fortunately no accident happened on this shore. Prince George' looked like going off orice through his; [ horse Swerving suddenly, buthe got no further than its heck, and ' easily' regained his' saddle; X After having thbfoughlygood sport for a cd.uple'of hours' the Princes arid;their- party .turned.their, horses' - heads towards' home, and Were directed by a special messenger,to join Mr Bowman at,,a pit into which, half-a-dozen kangaroos had fallen in leaning over aience, and were 'amusing themselves'by j'oibing ,ih;i .general ,fight.'/';. Oat.:.of g^his'^hple, 'obe.t-iof. i ihei "best j runs7,of : the -day waß obtained,. A lull having taken-place in the scratching rriatch,: Mr; Stirling, with 'a. considerable amount.of^ pluck,', went into the pit for 'the purpose of releasing one of the TpHsohers and hunting it. Ot course he.irn 'mediately became the object of a few polite attentions in the way of kicks: andscratch ings frdm'th'eanimals—one'oldl man being very.','. particular ', in.;.' thid ,-, duty; but' .'tjie. i spectators above/; ( with the aid of poles, kept them1 from' ripping the' clothes' off-his backhand theri'perhaps rip^irig'him open'.'-.i Having,',iec,ured orie-niiddling-aized kangaroo -by:the: tailj Mr Stirling passed up: ,t6 the,, srirface,'" arid' came ...'out of; ;the. den,'! but, riot scathleas ; : 'likji. the prophet of old, for i he had received a'nasty 'scratch ori'the back of the hand, <Hyhich- 'trohbled'him.a good'deal at night.!'. On the party mountiiig, the kangaroo was let loose, "piit not a move would it make, except to wards the horsemen instead of from them. Presumably it had been thoroughly cbwed^ or exhausted with fighting iv the pit, and it was quite five-minutes before it ran off. The run was hut a short one, for the two dogsi:which were sentafter'it were- soon upon it and killedit, Another one.was hauled .up by.'the *';' tail ,put of the'1 hole,•'and this'....time.!there' was,' much! d?lay in gettiDg it- to scamper off.

A; third prisoner was then released;' and-hung fiire for a short tiirie, but after '; 'hopping about, among the hprses/ahdendeavouring.to. caress with its claws the wife of one of the station hands, it went off among the 'scrubhard pressed by Mr Stirling^ who had not gone 200 yards before his horse tumbled over a tussock of grass and sent.him, spinning'along the ground fully twenty feet, away.,. Fortu-, nately the turf was soft, arid Mr '''Stirling was soon mounted . again, none the worse for his tumble. A few more hunts took place on the way home arid a most enjoyable day's sport ended only' With the shadbws'of evening. Several "joeys" and young tdol atches—the native name for a small species of; kangaroo— were : caught alive, and' onewas presented to each Prince." '' A ballot-box stuffirig-detcc'ting;' contri vance is on. exhibition in the Chaniber'of Deputies in 'Paris; The invention consists of apiece of mechanism fixed to \ the box' it&jelf, by" which the corner of the card authorising the elector to vote is cut off by a species of miniature guillotine, which, with'eVcify descent', of the knife, autbmatl. eally setsaarti t indicator in 'motion,' shbwing • the exact number of; votes' .polled at any particular' ro'orn'ent;;' x The' corners cut off : fall into a'separate- compartment 'of \ the box, 'the' voting tickets into another'; "so that if ariy) dispute arise! it is. only neces sary to compare the number of corners with the figure shown on the iridica'tor arid,with the tickets, in,order:'to,verify the correct ness of the operation. •' - ','" j The editor of the "Northern Advocate '' opens out on the Goverhmentin !this style : *'We say subservient majority.
