James Soppett, of Wollesley-stivat, was charged with a breach of the Local Board of health on the information of ten resi dents in the neighbourhood setting forth that on the 14th of April, a certain building for boiling, burning, or crushing bouea, owned by the defendant, emitted offensive effluvia, injurious to health, and that the said defendant had not used the best prac tical means for preventing the noxious effluvia escaping from his bone boiling establishment, contrary to the form of the statute, etc.

The information was laid by tho Sanitary Inspector at the instigation of a number of residents in the neighbourhood of the buildings. Mr X llesketh appeared for the defen dant, and took exception to the informa tion as bad, as it disclosed two offences. Mr Theo. Cooper appeared for the prose cution.

His "Worship thought it was really only one offence. The lirst was a complaint, which was not altogether a charge. The certificates goes to the building. The real oll'euce was the trade or calling of the building, and to whether the effluvia was or was not offence. The person must be punished for the business not the building. Mr llesketh said he would plead not guilty.

Mr Cooper then explained the particulars of tho alleged breach of the Local Board of Health ; it was, therefore, for the Court to hear tho evidence, and to ascertain whether Mr Soppett had used the best principal means to prevent an effluvia issuing from hi 3 bone mill which might prove injuious to health, lie understood there was a case of typhus fever close to the mill, but he could not say that the effluvia had caused it.

Mr J. B. Russell said that the evideuce, if the case proceeded, would be couffectiiig, in fac, it was strong on both sides ; ou the side of Mr Soppet, it would be urged that the drainage wuh defective, which would altogether be denied by the Inspector, and it had been suggested that the case should bo adjourned for a fortnight, to give the corporation the opportunity of repairing it and putting a calvert at low water-mark. If tho corporation will agree to do this, Mr Soppet will carry out on his part, the sug gestions of the Inspector, Tho parties retired with the view to an arrangement.

Mr Hesketh said the sewer was in a shocking state, allowing the stagnant water to stand in holes ;ho would not of course oppose the adjournment. Tho case" was therefore adjourned until tho 17 inst. This was all the business.

CONVERSAZIONE AND EX HIBITION AT MUSEUM.

The couversazione and exhibition of curios, scientific and general, for which such elab orate preparations had been going on for niauy days previously at the Museum, was opened there last night. So far as the elements are concerned, the auspices were unfavourable, but notwithstanding this drawback the attendance of the public was large, and their satisfaction with the entertainment manifest. "Multurainparvo'' well expresses the state of the Museum, for the casual visitor on entering its precincts is confronted by such an assemblage of novel aud interesting objects that he teels quite bewildered, and is at a loss to know where to commence his round of inspection. The rooms on either side of the vestibulecon tuin exhibits of equal attractiveness. That on the right hand is set apart for the display of a number of excellent microscopes, which were courteously presided over by l)r Pur chas and Mr E. Bartley, while in the lett hand room are arrayed a choice aud numer ous assortment of photographs lent by various gentlemen, and a number of rare and costly MSS and black-letter books ob tained from Sir George Grey, K.C.B. Amongst these there is a Eonian Catholic Missal, superbly written in a large Gothic hand, and profusely illustrated with minia ture paintings and garnished with illumi nated initial letters andflowered borders. It was written in the XV. century for a Bishop of Besangon, and was purchased by its present owner for £80. Beside it are a copy of "The Golden Legend" (with characteristic woodcuts), printed by Wyn kvn de Worde, a facsimile of Chaucer's "Canterbury Tales " as printed by Caxton in 1493, " The Boke of Eneydos—compiled by Vyrgyle, translated and printed by Cax ton, 1490 " (bought at auction for £191), Pniodrus' translation ofyEspp's Fables(l66o), and a written Book of Heraldry. The last two works belong to the Institute. On entering the hall the first object that arrests the attention is a capitally mounted specimen of the voracious blue shark (carcharius brachyurus) and then imme diately behind it one encounters Mr A. .keischek's artistic arrangement of geological specimens. Two artilicial crags are raised in the centre of the ball, with a miniature ravine between them. The top of one bears an ibex and upon the highest point of the other a chamois is placed in the act of bounding, while from amidst the cunningly-devised ( thicket of the ravine the head of a deer peers out. Along the sides of the crags are grouped and arranged North American and New Zealand birds, a fox, an otter, etc. This is the biological department. Up stairs, the entire right - hand side cf the gallery is occupied with a, varied assemblage of African and South Sea Island curiosities, the former having been presented to the Museum by Mr J. T. Mackelvie, and the latter lent by Mr Kohn, Mr S. Coombe3 aui other gentlemen. They comprise weapons, industrial implements, calabashes, articles of clothing, ornamental and carved figures, mats and nick-nacks. In addition to these there are the ordinary exhibits of the Museum, which alone will well re-pay close and attentive ex amination. The scientific apparatus is located in the lecture-hall, and thanks to the clear and obliging explanations given r.v Mr J. A. Fond, Mr T. Peacock, Mr Percy Smith, and Mr Percy Smallfield it proved a Bource of great interest to the visi tors The collection consists of Reming ton's type-writer, (worked by Mr Buchanan) geodetical and trigonometrical survey in struments, heliograph, magnesium lamps, ( spectroscopes, thermo-electric pile, gonio meter, chemical balances, electric and galvanic batteries, induction coils, chem ical apparatus, aneroids, etc. The fine and powerful telescopes belonging to the Institute, Messrs E. Porter and Company, Mr O. H. Street, and Mr Stevenson were there also, but the overcast sky effectually precluded any astronomical observations from being made. Mr Ellis, who had taken up a stand close by the plaster-cast of Theseus, on the first floor, displayed the wonders of the electric pen, while Mr Sheath, assisted by Mr J. Carlow, attended to, and worked, for the edification of the curious, the elec tric fire-alarm contrivances, which the City Council have determined to bring into vo«ue. ■ A collection of kauri gum, contri buted by Mr Barber, is also deserving of notice. The mechanical appliances, fur nished by Messrs T. Herbert, Reynolds, <r. Bovd, Leighton, J. Howden, and Mr fl. Or. Wade, are situated on the basement iloor, and last night were driven by a two horse water engine, lent tor the occasion by Messr3 Price Brothers, of the Thames. In this department an hour may be most profitably and - enjoyably spent, ipr the operators of the different mach ines chow the greatest alacrity in ex plaining the multifarious processes of work ! which they superintend. Here may be seen a self-acting screw-cutting iron-turning lathe a wood-turning lathe, a lapidary s wheel, cutting, drilling, and polishing (greenstone), &c, a potter's throwing lathe, a mlmbering and paging machine, and a number of fret-work machines, &c. in Major Mair's office, which adjoins the Museum building, Mr Furbey had set up his telephonic apparatus. It nad been intended to communicate with Onehun^a, but some unexpected diffi culty' had interposed, and in order to prevent disappointment therefore, a, con nection was effected with the Auckland telegraph office when Mr Martin and Mr Corfiss by conversation and song exerted Hiomselves to amiae and entertain their Sors in Princes-street. The telephone was an especial feminine "weakness,' and Mr Furbey successfully managed to keep funnyisms and songs. The inspection of the curios in the Museum proper was asso ciated with the rendering of some pleasing Sections of instrumental musicby-ajand composed principally of ™Bti*nrff *£ Bartley-sfamily, while the evenings pro ceedings were brought to an agreeable ter mination with an exhibition by means o the oxy-hydrogen lantern of a number or entomologicafspecimenslentby the,U»te bring Philosophical Society. Mr Josian Martin was the lecturer. The conversaaone on the whole was a pronounced success and all those who assisted to make it so are

j thciefore deserving of cordial praise. Mr Cheesomau (pere) and Mr Cheesemau (Ills) were both untiring in their exertions to please and accommodate and consequently are entitled to special mention. The public will have another opportunity for visita tion on Saturday evening, when it is to be hoped the weather will be more propititous. From noon till 5 p.m., the Museum will be open for tho convenience of country visitors.

MR OLIVER AND HIS CON STITUENTS.

[BY TELEGRAPH—PRESS ASSOCIATION.]

DUNKDIN, Thursday.

Mr Omvrr addressed his constituents in I the Garrison Hall to-night. He said that although the Opposition wished to monopolise the title of Liberal.1;, he did not hesitate to say that he was a Liberal, and tbat ho found himself in perfect harmony with the Government, and with the Gov ernment party. The necessary inference from this was that there was no differeuce between the supporters of the Government and of the Opposition, or thac the Opposi- I tion comprised many who were pretenders Ito Liberalism. As an instance of , the make-believe character of some of the Liberalism which was professed, he mentioned that though it wasi part of the platform of the opposition during last election to favour triennial Parliaments, still whoa the measure was introduced, it was found that some of the Opposition I really detested it, and a prominent sup porter of Sir George Grey, when he saw, to his intense dismay, that the Bill would ' probably pass, called to a friend on the same side of the House who was supposed to have great inlluenco with the Maoris, " For heaven's sake, take those Maoris of yours to the other lobby, or else tho confounded thing will be passed." In regard to this measure, and several other matters, tho Government rather astonished the self-styled Liberals. Wuon first elected Sir George Grey's pro posals for reform were before the country, and when he pledged himselli to support them, he little thought that it would full to a Government of which he wuh a member to give effect to them. But such had in fact been the case. Sir George Grey having entirely failed, it had remained for the suc ceeding Government to have them placed r>n the Statute-book oE tho colony. New Zealand now had a franchise as liberal as any enjoyed by any country, but to com plete the sum of reform one or two other measures were necessary, and he hoped shortly to see thosq passed. Of tho prin ciples of the Redistribution of Seats Rill he approved, but he considered it would still leave the system of representation defective. He was strongly in favour of the adoption of the system of represeutationknown as Hare's system. It would, he thought, be better for the members of the Upper Chamber to' be elected by the call of the members of the House of Representatives than that they should either bo nominated by the Govern ment or elected by those who returned the members of the House of Representatives. Ingoing back over the twenty months dur ing which the present Ministry had been in ollice, he considered nothing had been more satisfactory than tho management of nativo affairs.' The reflections made by Major Atkiusou on the condition of the general finances of the colony when the Government took office, had caused a good deal of alarm, and the Government were accused of making matters appear worse than th(,y were, for the purpose of blacken ing the, reputation of their prede cessors. Major Atkinson announced that the deficiency would probably amount to over £800,000, and his gloomy forebodings were more than fulfilled, for up to the 31st of March, ISSO, the deficit amounted to £990,000. This deficit it was impossible to provide for out of ordinary revenue. That fact wa3 recognised by Parliament, and the Government was authorised to add one million sterling to the permanent debt to make up for the deficiency. The Govern ment recognised that there was not only need for severe retrenchment, but that additional sources of revenue should be obtained. The Customs duties were in creased. By this means the workinginan , was called upon to contribute more than formerly, and it became necessary to obtain a larger contribution from the propertied classes. This led to the imposition of the property tax. _ At the time of the last elections no question was more canvassed than the respective merits of a property and income tax. The general opinion of the country was decidedly in favour of all classes of property being taxed. In'his opinion a greater proportion of the revenue ought to be drawn from direct taxation, and the tariff ought to be simplified. The man of property ought to be called upon to pay for the protection afforded him, and tho more the property tho larger was the amount of protection he en joyed ; but if they taxed incomes, men would not pay proportionately to their wealth, for incomes were uncertain. In this colony almost everyone was pretty fully taxed, for if a man enjoyed a goad income, and saved it, it was taxed as pro perty, while if he spent it in extravagant living he was even a greater contributer to the revenue of the colony. The objection that the property tax would prevent money being brought into the colony, must be ac knowledged to be false, for the supply of money was now greater than it had been for years. A disposition had been dis played of late by tbe Opposition to deprive the Government of the credit of their retrenchment. He thought the Opposition were disappointed at the effect of tha re trenchment achieved by the Governm ent. First the Opposition had relied ' upon benefitting by the upopularity of the Government, but now observing that, the people recognised the benefit the Government had conferred on the colony, they said that retrenchment was forced by the Opposition, or at any rate by the House. The fact was that more than any other members, the members of the Ministry had insisted upon the necessity for economy and retrenchment. They had be?un practical retrenchment by omitting to draw one fifth of what they were entitled to. The Government proposed to reduce the estimates for salaries by £50,000, but the House had listened to similar promises many time and so insisted upon reducing salaries by a rigid 10 per cent, reduction. Had the House, instead of doing this, accepted the assurance of the Government, the Govern ment would have been able to effect re trenchment to the same extent with much less injury to the Service. The Govern ment had, however, succeeded in reducing the estimates for the current year by over £250,000, but the task had been difficult and exceedingly disagreeable. Ketreuch ment, in general terms, met with every one's approval, and many were content to see their neighbours reduced, but when they themselves or their friends were affected "by it, it appeared something extremely objectionable and improper. Regarding public works, he said that if the railway lines had been all well chosen, there would have been no need for such a check as the public works policy had recently encouutered, but lines had been constructed that could not pay ; trains were run more , frequently than was necessary, aud the tariff adopted in some instances was unne cessarily low. In one case where the car riage had been £6 per ton, the charge by rail until last October had been 17s 2d per ton, and on taking office he had, as soon as possible, lessened the, number of trains, so as to diminish the train mileage by over 170,000 miles a year. Station-masters were removed from ex tremely small stations ; the number of men employed was reduced ; one efficient de partment—a Commissioner's Department had been substituted for two inefficient ones, and one Accountant's Department had been instituted for both Islands. The scale of payment had been reduced, the goods tariff revised, and a system established ac cording to -which men would bo promoted in the service instead of being superseded by outsiders. He bad had under consideration a scheme for a general railway benelit society and a eytsem of colonial parcels de livery" Inquiries were being made with a view to adopting the American system^ of checking luggage, and attention was being given to the question of reducing passenger rates aDd establishing night trains between Christchurch and Dunedin. These matters were, however, now for his successor to de cide upon. Mr Oliver concluded by making an explanation of the reasons which had induced him to resign his portfolio. He entertained tho highest respect for and goodwill towards his late colleagues, but by the sudden loss of his business mauager, he found that he could not, as he had hitherto done, give his undivided attention to his official duties until fresh arrange ments were made. At the close of the meeting a vote of confidence was proposed and carried.

A young prince who had married a very old (and rich) woman exphined that no poor fellow, in a hurry to get a bank note cashed, ever took the trouble to look at the date of it.

Recently a fire broke out in the shipbuilding yard of Messrs J. and G. Thomson, nearly ton miles from Glasgow. It originated in the sawmills and spread to the joiners,' shop, a very large building, Bontaining machinery and valuable Bhop jittinga. The damage, which is estimated at £40,000, is covered by insurance.

JUDGMENT IN TARARUA CASE.

(Uv Telegraph.— Peeks association.)

THE CAI'TAIN BLAMED FOR

LOSS OF VESSEL,

} DUNEDIN, this day. The following is the Tararua judgment :— "That the wreck and loss of life was primarily caused through the failure of the master, Francis George Garrard, to ascertain at 4 a.m. on the 29th of April the correct position of his ship. An ample use of the lead would have told the dis tance off the shore. That course in which the Tararua steered from 1.30 a. in to 4 a.m.—a west south-west course— assuming, as the evidence entitles us to do, that the compass was magnetically correct, was an inshore course, and therefore im proper, espaciully as the heavy swell and ebb tide teuded to set the vessel on shore. That, in our opinion, the vessel at 4 a.m. had not run her distance, but was consider ably to the East of Slope Point, and at a comparatively speaking short distance from land. That at 4.25 a.m., when the second officer first called the attention of the captain to the noise of breakers, the vessel was off Slope Point, and in dangerous proximity thereto on a west course, but that the captain believed her to be oft" Waipapa Point. That when he altered his course from west to west by south half south, lie thought he was running in the direction of Toby Rock, and that the fear of running on that rock caused him to alter his course, in the short space of 20 degrees, back to west. That although it is to be regretted the second officer did no: exercise the power which he had to stop the engines if he found the ship in imminent danger, when for the second time he fancied he heard breakers we cannot come to the conclusion that his uotdoing so was a negligent omission. It was reasonable for him to suppose that the captain had ascertained the position of the ship at 4 a.m., and that the lapse of time from 4 a.m. to 5.15 a.m. was sufficient i£ tho ship was on her proper course to enable her to have passed all danger, and ho might hereby naturally be impressed with the idea that hearing breakers could be only fancy and took the action he did to report to the captain in terms of his orders. At the same time we are of opinion that leaving tho bridge at any time by an officer on deck wheu the ship is under way is fraught with extreme danger, and Captain Garrard's orders to his ollicors to call him personally, involving, as it did, leaving the bridge, were imprudent. That the immediate cause of the wreck and loss of life was the negligent failure of able seamen Westou to keep a proper look out. For we are impressed wilh the idea that had a proper look-out boen kept broken water muat have been observed some minutes before the vessel struck, and, in all probability, sufficient tune would have been afforded for the' danger to be, avoided. That after tho vessel struck aud filled, thereby becoming a total wreck, tha captain, in our opinion, com mitted an error ot judgment in not placing his passengers in boats, particularly as it was ebb tide, and tho time of tho morning most favourable to work boats on the coast of New Zealand. That the captain must have failed to have noted the proximity of the wreck to two boat harbours shown on the chart, one to tiic east and another to tho west, the latter of which we are of opinion was available. Thu Court was of opinion that the boats having been in existence before 1879 the Act and regulations were complied with so far as ii proper number aud character were concerned, as also the number ot life-buoys. Tho boats were fully equipped, with the exception of life-belto for the crew of the life boats as required by the. Act. According to the evidence, the boats would not have carried the whole number on board the vessel, but a large proportion. The Act and regulations do not contemplate that tho boats should carry all on board, however necessary it might appear under certain circumstances. Nor do they make any special provision for tho carrying of lifebelts for the use of passengers and crew. We cannot help stating, however, that many lives would have been saved had life-belts been available for passengers and crew in this case. We are of opinion that after the vessel struck, tho boats were almost uselessly employed. In reference to the management ot the boats by the officers in charge, we are of opinion loss of the Jirst officer's boat might have been avoided by more skilful management, but although censuring the first officer for his lack of skill, we are not disposed to say that the casualty which resulted therefrom was caused by his wrongful act or default. As to the second officer's boat, we can take no exception to tho way it was managed, but we are impressed with the idea that if the crew in that boat had been supplied with life belts, they would have incurred greater risk in tbe attempt to reach the vessel after the sea begaa to rise. From the evidence, we aro of opin ion that after twelve o'clock, noon, it became a difficult and dangerous task to render external aid to those on the wreck, but we cannot come to the conclusion that it became an impossibility to render any assistance, and we think that notwithstand ing tho nature of the telegrams making the intimation of the accident, aid should have been endeavoured to have been obtained on the first notice of the casualty from Inver cargfll or Bluff, the nearest ports to the wteck, the former being forty-two, and the latter twenty, miles distant, to give a chauce of assistance, of reaching the wreck before dark on the 29th. For no passenger vessel on rock can be considered in any other but a dangerous position. At the same time we admit every promptitude was used to send aid from Port Chalmers. We arc astonished at the fact that the officers ot the Tarariia were ignorant of the variations of tho compass, when it is considered that at any moment through an accident to the mascer in'command ot a steamer, tho duty might have devolved on one of them. We are not prepared, however, on account of the peculiar discipline on board disclosed by the evidence to say in what degree, if any this ignorance was attributable to their own neglect. The certificates of both officers are returned, and the following re commendations to the Government are made:—(l) Considering the number of vessels that have been stranded on or near Waipapa Point, about ten in number, necessity of light in the neigh bourhood to render navigation safe is urgent. (2) It should be made a regulation under the Shipping and Seaman's Act, 1877, that all passenger vessels trading iv New Zealand waters should carry life belts for the maximum number of passengers and crew such vessels are entitled to carry at sea. A_j,regulation should also be made compelling exercise in the management of boats at stated intervals.

In answer to a question, tho Court stated that as the captain was dead there wai no one against whom the order for costs could be made:

NEW NORTH SMOKE FERRY COMPANY.

A meeting ot gentlemen favourable to the formation of a new Ferry Co., was held in tbe Masonic Hotel, Dcvenport, last evening. The room in which the meeting was held was corwded, and apologies were received from several others who were unable to be present. Mr J. B. Kussell was called to the chair, and requested Mr Tanner, the convener of the meeting, to state the business for which they had been called together. Mr Tanner said he had been requeated by a number of the residents of Uevonport to call a meeting to initiate proceedings for tbe formation of a Ferry Company to ply between Auckland and Devonport—the principal features of which would be fast boats, cheap fares, and regular communica tion, and he considered such a service could be organised, and pay a handsome dividend to shareholders.

It was subsequently unanimously re-, solved, "' That this meeting is of opinion that it is desirable to organise a new Ferry Company, such Company to be called tha Devonport Steam Ferry Company, and to have a nominal capital of £10,000, in 10,000 shares of £1 each."

Resolved that a committee consisting of F. W. Alison, C. G. Quick, T. J. Harbutt, W. 11. Fcnton, Jno. Edson, and W. H. Heath be requested to obtain information and draw up a prospectus, and submit the same to an adjourned meeting to be held on Wednesday next, the Bth inst. A paper was then passed round, as a guarantee of good faith pledging the sub scribers to take shares in the projected company, which was signed by nearly all present, Mr Quick putting his name down f6r 1,000 shares. Mr Tanner was appointed Secretary pro. tern. of the new Company.

A vote of thanks to the Chairman brought the meeting to a close.

The following will represent the Selwyn F.U. in a frienuly match against the New Market to-morrow (Saturday) :—J. AVooller (captain), W. Speight, Mackie, Winch* c6mb, Brown, McConuell, Allison, Alder ton, Sergent, Edmund, and Croker. Emergency: 'C. Speight, O'Neill,, and Keatly.

FATAL, ACCIDENT AT RUA KAKA.

Mr Wm. McElkoy, brother of Mr T. MoElroy of Auckland, met with a serious accident last Monday at lluakaka, which has resulted iv his death. Mr Win. McElroy wus engaged on a contract for the con struction of ii road through the Ruakaka Block, half-way betweeu Whangarei Heads and Mongonni. At 10 o'clock on Monday morning he had two men employed felling a tree, whilu he was working a little distance oil". About ten minutes before the acci dent he examined the tree and returned to his work, thinking it would fall in tho other direction. The tree, liowuver, shortly after jerked over, and Mr McElroy seeing its dangerous position, attempted to run away. The ground was swampy, and his feet stuck: in the mud. In falling a short limb of tho tree broke oil'and fell upon his head, heeling him over into a ditch. When the tree itself fell it also struck the un fortunate man across the shoulders. He managed to scramble from underneath and the two meu coming to his assistance directly he was laid on the road to rest. He said he could walk homo, and Lis companions taking eacli an arm helped him along. They reached the tent, which was about a quarter of a-mile off, in this manner. On the way Mr McElroy told his wife, who was present, that his watch would be found in his waistcoat pocket lying on tho road. He also desired the men to return to their work. The sufferer was put in bed in an almost unconscious state. He lay quiet for about two hours, when ho commenced vomiting Mood, and at about 4 o'clock in the afternoon he died. The brother and brother-in-law ot the deceased upon receiving the sorrowful tidings, at once procured v coffin, and went to the scene. They brought the body up by the s.s. Argyle last evening, and it was interred in the Presbyterian cemetery this after noon. ' • Deceased leaves a wife and three children. He is supposed to have been possessed of some little meana, but has loft no will, his property therefore passing to his widow.
