SUPREME COURT.— Yesterday.

CRIMINAL SITTINGS.

(Before Hia Honor Mr Justice Gillies.) CATT-E-KILLIHG.

The charge of cattle-killing against Thomas O'Carroll was proceeded with after we went to press yesterday. Mr Hesketh; in addressing the jury, submitted that .the prisoner might easily bave mistaken the animal for a wild one, and shot it without any criminal intent. At a quarter to eight o'clock the jury brought in a verdict of " Not Guilty." In discharging the prisoner, His Honor said that had he been indicted for maliciously wounding cattle, the result of the trial wonld probably have been different.

THIS DAY.

(His Honor took his seat at 10 o'clock.) bap*. James Walker, Scotch, single, larourer, was arraigned upon an indictment charg ing him with having committed a rape upon Ellen E3die Peters. Prisoner pleaded not guilty. Mr Browning appeared for the defence. Mr John Grey was chosen foreman of the jury. Mr Williamson in his addresti to the jury, said that the committal of the offence was not denied, and the defence would be that the girl was a consenting party. Ellen Peters waa called, and deposed that she was the daughter of Walter Ran dall Peters, who resided on his farm near Miranda. She knew the prisoner in the box, and remembered something that hap pened on the night of February 19th of this year. The time was between 9 and 10 o'clock.' She was drc.sing a turkey in the kitchen, and had occasion to go outside. Sho was taking a pan of water, in which she had washed the turkey. It was too heavy for her, and she laid it on a packing case. While she was doing this, James came round the corner of the house, and caught her by the hands. After placing her on the box he committed the offence with which he was charged. Her father, five brothers, two sisters, and a storekeeper were inside the house, in bed. When prisoner came into the yard she did not suspect his intention. She struggled with the prisoner, but did not make any noise, because she wis afraid her father would whip her. Her sisters were younger than' herself. She was twelve years old lastl- December. After the offence she went to bed. Her father mar ried in March, and on June 6th she told her step-mother what had happened. What led her to telling was the fact that a Mr Parrel attempted to lift up her clothes. and she called her step-mother. She told of both offences at the same time. When the offence was committed by Walker, there was no women about the house she could tell. She was the oldest female there.

To Mr Browning: She used to speak to the prisoner. They all had meals at [th.;same .table. Prisoner had never kissed her, but had put his arm round her. He had indecently assaulted her prior to this night iv February. Since* then he had attempted to put his hand under her clothes. That was after her stepmother came. She did not tell her stepmother about this. The shopman, Tnrretl, slept in the I dining-room. He bad since died. She did not go into his room while he was in bed and ask him to cook onions. She asked that question in the kitchen before he went to bed. On the following Wednesday, she went to town, as her father was to be married,, While in town stayed at Mrs Suitor's and Mrs Le Roche's,but did not tell them anything. Walter Randall Peters deposed that the last witness was his daughter. She was twelve years old last September. Knew the prisoner, who had been a servant on his farm until the Bth of June this year. Cn that day witness charged him with the offence. He denied it, but subsequently asked if she was much hurt. He then, ad mitted having committed the offence, and offered to pay all expenses. The girl fre quently complained of pains subsequently. James Dalzell, a duly qualified medical practitioner, deposed that he examined the girl Ellen Peters on June 17th, and he was satisfied that she had had connection with a person of the male sex. William Walicer, constable in the Armed Constabulary, stationed at Mercer, deposed to having arrested the prisoner, James Walker, on the 9th June. He said, " What was done couldn't be undone," and that he would have to take the conse quence. '.;- This was the case for the prosecution, and counsel on both sides addressed.the' Court.

-The jury retired to consider their verdict, and returned at two o'clock with a verdict of"Not Guilty." i The prisoner was then discharged. " RAPE.

John Davis, Irish, ship's cook, widower, Roman Catholic, was arraigned upon an indictment charging him with having com mitted a rape upon Ellen Alice Messenger, a. girl under twelve years of age. ,'; Prisoner, a man of advanced years, with white hair, pleaded not guilty.

Mr Williamson stated the facts of the case. The offence was alleged to have taken place at Hamilton East. Ho would call the complainant. Ellen Alice Messenger deposed that she resided at Hamilton East. Knew the Wai kato Hotel. Was passing it on her way home from Sunday-school ou the day' when the prisoner committed the offence. A number of little girls were in company with her, and one of them asked her to go to the hotel with her for a drink of water. She did so, and going to the rear of the premises she saw the prisoner standing at the door of the scullery. She asked the prisoner for the water, and he gave her the glaBS and directed her to the tank. She went there, and having got the water, returned the glass. Prisoner asked her to come into. the scullery and-get some pudding.. She went in, and he locked the door. He then committed the offence. She tried to get away from him, but did not scream ont. She'was frightened. By the prisoner: You did not tell me to go out of the kitchen, as the master was coming; r When I went outride the other girls Were there. I did not see my sister in the kitchen. Saw Mr Gowan there.

;:To Mr Williamson: I went up to the scullery door with Sarah Ann Edwards. I went inside, and prisoner shut the door and locked it, To_His Honor : I told my mother and father of what the prisoner had done im mediately I got home. This was the second time prisoner had done that; sort of thing to me. The . first oc casion"" was on the previous Monday. No other person had ever done it to mr{ I did not tell my father and mother the first time.

Sarah Ann Edwards was then called. She lived in Hamilton Eaßt with her parents, and was twelve years of ago last birthday. Knew Alice Messenger and the prisoner at the bar. Remembered a Sunday afternoon in May on which she was going home from Sunday-school with Alice Messenger and other children. When they were passing the Waikato Hotel, Alice Messenger went to get a drink for a little girl. The cook asked Alice and witness to go in, and they did so. Prisoner subse quently, locked himself in the scullery with Alice, and witness went out of the yard. She returned immediately afterwards, and looked through the keyhole. She saw the prisoner and Alice. She then went to the window, and looking through saw Davis, the cook, wath clothes disarranged. He had hold of Alice round the waist.

THE EASTERN ASPECT OF THE ANGLICAN CHURCHES.

(To the Editor.)

Bib,—" Hymnbunkum" asks," Why it St. Sepul chre. Church so built that the people when worshipping kneel towards the East ?' He asks If '■ the genuflexions are intended a. homage to the rising sun, or as a tribute of respect to the birth-place of Christ!" Permit me to inform him that it is neither one nor tho other. The reason for it is to be found in the following petition in Solomon's prayer for Israel at the dedication of the temple. "If they (Israel) sin against thee and thou be angry with them, and deliver them over before their enemies, and they carry them away captives into a land far or near; yet if they bethink themselves in the land whither they are carried captive, and turn and pray unto thee in the land of their captivity, Baying, we have sinned, we have done amiss, and havedealt wiokedly. If they return unto The* with all their heart. . . . and pray to ward their land, which thou gayest unto their fathers, ana toward the city which thou hast chosen, and toward the house which I have built for thy name, then hear thou from the heavens their prayer and their snpplications^ind maintain their cause and forgive thy people. Israel did sin, they were cast ont ot their land, and now in Enelind, the land of their captivity, the National Churches are built with an -astern espeot in accordance with the spirit of Solo man. prayer. The Colonial Anglican Churohes a» a matter of oourse, follow the pattern set by t)u> mother country,—Yours, toe, ANOIW)-I§B4-S&,

NEW ZEALAND LOAN AND MERCANTILE AGENCY CO.

Thk annual local meeting of the New Zealand Loan and Mercantile Agency Co. was commenced at noon to-day, about 15 shareholders being present. The Hon James Williamson occupied the chair. He opened the proceedings with the following speech .'—Gentlemen—This meeting is more formal than anything else, the work usual on such occasions having been done, as you will find from the report, published in London in February, which is already Iv Shareholders bands. I simily rise to add what weight I can to what the Chairman put before that meeting respecting the prosperity of the country, and of this concern in par ticular. .. Our business is a very rapidly growing one. From Australia we have reports of the most promising nature. The business there is increasing very fast. But there is an old saw which says that " good wine needs no bush," and I think that it has a strong application in our case. .There is no doubt that the benefit which the shareholders derive is shared in by the people of the country. The Company con fers a very great boon upon the colony. It has enabled us to conduct our business with a greater amount of safety than we had the opportunity of doing before its establish ment, and it also largely reduces the cost. Mistakes, of course, will sometimes occur in spite of the best endeavours of the Com pany being used in the interests of its clients; but I think I may safely say that in our. case these mistakes are very few in number, perhaps fewer in tbe present cir cumstances than would be likely to occur if there were no such company to rely upon. I believe we have how got over the difticnlty created by the monetary panic of some two years ago, which was by the failure of the City of Glasgow Rank. A prosperous course is now before us. We have had assurances from all our managers, that busi ness generally ia much better. As I said at the outset this is quite a formal meeting, simply designed for the purpose of assembling the Colonial shareholders in order to lay before them the results of the past year's operations. That having been done the next business will be the election of two directors to fill the vacancies caused by the retirement of Messrs S. Browning and J. C. Firth, who, however, are eligible for re-election.

Upon the motion of Mr W. I. Taylor, seconded by Mr John Probert, Messrs S. Browning and J. C. Firth were accordingly re-elected directors.

Mr P. Comiskey proposed the appoint ment of Mr W. I. Taylor as Colonial Auditor. The motion was seconded by Mr G.-'P. Pierce, and agreed to.

Mr A. Boardman moved that a vote of thanks should be accorded the directors and officers of the Company. He was quite sure that they deserved such an acknow ledgment at the hands of the shareholders. The success which the Company had achieved had not been tbat of one half-year merely, but a success extending through a series of half-years. It had been continuous, bad seasons and good seasons alike. Much depended upon the wisdom of the directors in securing au active and efficient staff, and also upon the exertions of that staff. The Company had been of great benefit to the settlers, and likewise to a large number of the English people, whose money it had 'been the means of bringing out to the Colony. It had been a mutual benefit to the resident owners of property here and to the English capitalists, whose money it had so wisely expended, and they, therefore, must be as much gratified at the result of its transactions as we here. Mr Barton Ireland, iv seconding the reso lution, said he could bear testimony to the zeal and good management of the direotors and officers. He was pleased to have seen the Company arise from small beginnings to its present position -second to none in the colonies. It occupied the premier place as a Bhipper of colonial produce. There was no need of further comment. The motion was passed unanimously. The Chairman returned thanks for the directors. He had only to say that it had always been the endeavour of the Board to promote the interests of the shareholders, and such votes as the one just passed, would tend to encourage them in the pur suance of the course which had hitherto proved so prosperous. He thought tbe shareholders of the Company were fortu nate in having a directory which held such a large pecuniary interest in the concern. It was perhaps the best guarantee that could be given that the directors were not in office simply for the sake of premium or honorarium, but for the protection of their own interests, with which, of necessity, were bound up the interests of their fellow shareholders, as, in ad vancing the one, they promoted the other. That was the best guarantee that the shareholders of a Company of this kind, could have that the directors were using their best efforts for the satisfactory discharge of their duties. He felt convinced thatthe common interestswould be as faith fully attended to in the future as they could.be.

Mr F. Battley acknowledged the vote on behalf of the officers of the Company. He said that, having had an oppoitunity during the last few months of visiting every office in tho colony and Aus tralia, he could say that the Com pany had a most earnest and zealous staff, the members of which devoted them selves unceasingly to the interests of the shareholders. Ho felt sure that their efforts for the advancement of the Company's business would continue to be marked by the same energy and earnestness that marked them in the past. The reading of the rough minutes termin ated the business.

HYMNOLOGY.

(To the Editor.)

Sir.—" Hymnbunkum," (hereinafter oalled H,), ia still, figuratively speaking, all at sea Sculptures (finished work.) that bite (verb active), are not to be found in the hymn; they exist only in " H's" orude imagination. If he mv st have an explanation, here it la:—The word "sculpture" means, primarily, being derived from the Latin, the act of cutting; then by an easy transition, tbe out itself: so further, to, seoondly.a completed work from the ohlsel; and lastly, it denotes the art which gives rules for works of the kind in question. '• H.," I repeat, only knows one meaning, the second—his dic tionary supports the first, in which sense the word is used in the hymn. He is also foggy about "bite." Living creatures, with more or less teeth, bite. Acids are said to bite. Sarcasm is said to bite, Ihe driv ing wheels of a locomotive are said to bite the rails, parts of machinery and tackle are Bald to blie, certain materials used by dyera are called mordaunts, i.c„ biters, and so on ad lib. Etas H. ever felt a biting east wind in England or elsewhere J Let him ask a mason to give hi m a "sculpture" on the back ot his hand, and I think be will find "biting " to be not a bad teim with whioh' to qualify the act. " Many a blow and biting sculpture," The line is oompletely descriptive. The blow with a mallet on the ohlsel, oauslnga bltiog Incision on the Btone.is made aa it were Tiaible. Tho line sustains its part in the metaphor with porfeot acouraoy. It must not be lost Bight of that it is not so mnoh the preparing ofstones for a material building that ia being des cribed, as the allusion to the suffer ings and sharp discipline opposed upon living persons, who have thereby been: fitter) for a place in the Heavenly temple;—that temple is a Scriptural figure being the subiect of the hymn bb a whole. A " biting" sculptnre then is not, say, a gargoyle BUddenly animated, giving the adjacent moulding a "vioions" bite (the vice is supplied gratis by H.), bnt a ont of a biting or penetrating nature, directed and given by the workman, who thus strikes offthe portion he desires to remove.—(Oh, dear me I it's just like giving an object leßson in a district school.) —As to ohlsel work polishing stones, my former remarks are sufficient. To write to an editor, and to challenge all the World, is not necessary, because a small and utterly unimportant lapse ia detected in »he working ont of tho,minor branoh of a figure; though, if space allowed, I could by carrying the use of the idea of cutting down Into the atomic region dealt with in the final procesß of polishing a Btone, ahew that the word when need in its classical sense is not erroneous; but enough of H's trumpery criticism. Whether the word used is polished, or, say finished, it does not give the slightest hitch in the swing of the poetry or figure. It would be eaßy to produce from any hymn book, or the works of any poet, hun dreds or thonsandß of equally senselss oarpings. I am not quite sure If "H's" dosing question about the bearinga of S. Sepulchre's Church 1b addressed to me; in any case, I would remark, that if he will spend a year or two in thoroughly mastering all tho subjects which a full treat ment of bis question requires, he will then find the question sunerfluouE. Meanwhile, I observe that his geography is ns shaky as his philology —the congregation neither sit, stand, or kneel facing towardß Palestine ; and why the rising Bun should be more objectionable a thing to faoe than tho setting Bun, the Manukau Bar, or Tiri Lighthouse I really cannot see. The printer's errors in the Latin quoted do not affect the question.—l am, &c, . Auckland, sth June, As ." Other Man.'

HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY.

The annual meeting of the Auckland Hor ticultural Society was held this afternoon in the Museum Building, Princes-street, there being present:—Messrs McKechnie (in the chair), S. Morrin, T. Mocftarlane, C. B. Stone, J. Chambers, and Dr Pur chas. , , After the minutes had been con firmed, the Secretary (Mr Cheese man), submitted the report and bal ance-sheet. The former, amongst other things, regretted that the Spring Show took place at Ellerslie, in November, as the date was much too early, while the distance of the place from town, prevented many peo ple from sending exhibits. The pecuniary results had by no means been satisfactory as half of the proceeds had had to be handed over to the Agricultural Society. The Autumn exhibition having been specially arranged for fruit had proved an unqualified success so far as ihe exhibits were con cerned. Still, the patronage of the public had been but limited, the receipts for the two days not nearly reaching £24. The balance-sheet (including a balance from last year of £64 3s 7d) had amounted to £233. 15s 6d, of which the disbursements had ab sorbed £214 15s lOd, leaving a balance of £18 19s 8d in hand.
