WRECK OF THE ACTIVE.

-iVo Lives Lost. - Vargo Saved,

The Myrtle, which arrived this morning from tho Friendly Islands, brought news of tho total wreck of tho Auckland brigan tine Active outside Apia, .Samoa. Captain W. S. Lane, who kindly furnished us with all the information at his disposal, did not Call at Samoa, and therefore had not seen any of tho crow ot the unfortunate vessel. Tho Active was lowing Apia at tho time of the Occurrence, which was early in December and after getting outside, she drifted ashore during a calm. The passengers and crew wore nil saved, and no accidents to any of the people who were on board at tho timo bad been lopottod, Tho Active had on board at the time of the catastrophe all her original carj-o from Auckland, which was insured. Fortunately this was saved. The brigautino became a total wreck, and the hull wa< subsequently sold to Mr Lorenson for £30. The passenger* and crew had returned to Apia. Tho Active was a brigautine of 156 tons register. She was a comparatively new vessel, having been built at Whaugaroa in 1877 by Messrs Lane aud Brown. Sho made her maiden and several succeeding trips to Navigators and Friendly Islands, 111 charge of Captain Lane, and under charter to Messrs McArthur aud Co. of Auckland. The trade then increased to inch an extent, that the Myrtle was sent to tho Islands in her stead.' Tho Active made trips south and to Sydney, and she was then engaged by Messrs McArthur & Co., to perform tho portion of their trade which extends through the Friendly Islands, She bad made several tiips under command of Captain .Scott prior to the present unfoituuiUo one. She left Auckland in chargo of the same skipper on tho 19th October, with a general cargo and several passengers. Samoa was safely reached, but the catastrophe recorded above happened while the vessel was taking her departure for a cruise amongst the islands of the group. The Active was owned by Messrs'. Lane and Brown, shipbuilder! of Whangaroa aud Messrs. AY. McArthur and Co., merchants, of Auckland. The vessel was insured in thelNew Zealand OIUco for £750, and in the Union Olllcc for £350, making a total of £1100. This is considerably under her estimated value. Tho cargo, which was saved, was also insured.

Mr Cooper said the lino was made fa3t from the Loch Fleet to a buoy, and was carried away by tho steamer Tain o' Shunter, of which tho defendant U master.

MEETING AT PARIHAKA.

(FROM OUU OWN COKRESrONDENT.)

I'UNUAKBHU, tliisday. Tkk l'atibaka meeting iinislicd Yesterday, but the majority ara staying to harvest the wheat. The speeches were Bhort and of the ordinary kind. Te Whiti said that the generation of old did not accomplish n happy settlement on the lands they temporarily occupied, therefore they were continually in trouble, hko the present generation. Nothing was Riven as a permanency to tho Gentiles or Europeans, but a time was approaching for the regeneration of Israel; and that previous to the final settlement it was foretold of old that they should eat the sorrow even as the Maories were at present. This generation however, although small in numbers, poor and ignorant, w a great generation, because of the things they arc told of old that there should be a trouble orso larger than any that come before, and toe"quarrel they were now engaged in was nf more importance thao any that has °p receded ii W though 20,000 men an houmight have! fallen in previous fights. The great nations are in trouble, and ie lamenting because they cannot a way out of this trouble.

RIT UALISTIC INCIDENTS.

J he course of the Ritualistic struggle, says the " Christian. World," of December 2nd, lias presented bomc noteworthy aud significant iucidents during the pasi week. On Saturday another recalcitrant clergy man, the ilev. It. W. Euraight of Bordeslcy, near Birmingham, was consigned, to gaol. Notice having beeu given of the arrest, the proceedings were marked by a due regard 10 cllectiveness aud. even solemnity. Mr Knraight, when waited upon by the Sheriff's oilicer in his driwing-rooin, wus found duly arrayed in his cus&ock, aua attended by a cousiderale number of his friends. uutside a largo crowd had assembled, in consequence of a notice which had becu posted on a boaid near the church railings, as follows ;— " Your vicar will be arrested this afternoon at 1.30. Traiu leaves for Warwick Uaol at 2.4." Ihc hero of the hour, when arrested, read a formal protest " in the name of Uod aud of the Church of 'Enclllud" "Sa»ist bolu X interfered with " u u der tho authority pro ceeding from tho Court of L°ld l «•»"»> whose jurisdiction iv spiritual matters he declined to acknowledge. This was followed by a similar protest in tho nanio of tho churchwardens. The assembled crowd received the vicar with cheers, and with equal heartiness groaned at tho name of of the member of tho cougrogatiou whose action has led to Mr Enraight's arrest. At the churchyard-gate Mr JSnraifjttt addressed the crowd. In a somewhat vajjuo manner ho accounted for liih goiug to prison by quoting Mr Gladstone's remark, "'Hint wo Uhurolnnen have long boon sullcriiig from 11 gross violation of the truo constitutional aud legal order of things in Church matters, and therefore of our strict rights as English men.'' Mr Enraight assured his hearers that ho was now going to giiol, " becauho thousands of the English clergy and hun dreds of thousands of the laity had long ngrcod that they would not B'.autl this any longer." The Doxology was then sung by the crowd, aud tho martyr proceeded ou his way

THE UKV. T. P. DALE.

On Monday an application was made in tho Queen's Bench Division on behalf of the i;ev. T. Pclham Dale, in which it was contended that the proceedings against him, under the Public Worship Act, were technically " wrong from beginning to end." This contention, of course, afforded n| line opportunity for the lawyers, who occupied Monday and Tuesday with a variety of ingenious and elaborate argu ments", iv which very few lay readers will care to follow them. Tho conclusion, however, was that there was something in tho contention laised. The wholo matter is to como before the Courts again next week, and there seems to be every probability that tho decision against Mr Hale will bo quashed on technical grounds. Meantime, it is gratifying to know that Mr Dale's health has improved, and that he finds occupation, and, it is. to bo hoped, amusement, iv his prison-lciiuro iv writing and in paiutiug iv water-colours.

HISSING IN CIIUUCH,

St. Paul's Church, Lorrimoro - Bquaro, Walwortli, was long notorious, under its late vicar, tho llov. J. Going, for its Komish ritual. Mr Going having recently died, t\ie appointment of a successor has devolved iv duo course upon the Jiisliop of Ilochestor. The Bishop has accordingly appointed the Kcv. E. F Alexauder, for. merly his curate iv St. Paneras, for the la»l three years his resilient chaplain. On Buu day evening the Bishop preached in tho church at Lorrimore-Bquaie, his visit beiug intended to introduce, and to prepare the way tor, the new vicar. It cannot bs said, however, that the puc^I** was very satis factorily accomplish ) \ that tho events of the evening gave ii1 ~ . promise of a bar monious future. ~ Bishop announced, in the course of the serrice, that " whatever was illegal in the ritual of that Church, would have to be discontinued ;" and although he appears to have softened tho form of his statement as much us possible, and assured the people that he trusted that tho service, "iv its dignity and heartiness, its marked devoutness, and its elevating service of song," mightcoutinuo "as stirring and as impressive aa ever," it was evident at once that any curtailment of the ritual would-be mediately upon the announcement referred to, the entire congregation rose to their feet, and that there was a considerable amount of hissing on the one side and of groaning on the other. OuUide the church a lar"o mob had assembled, consisting it is said, chiclly ot roughs, by whom a ' de monstration " was made against the liishop. Th? windows of the Bishop's carriage were broken, and his lordship narrowly escaped personal injury.

[It will be seen from to-day s cablegram that botli tho Key. P. Dale and tho Kcv. Mr Euright, have been liberated trom gaol.]
