AQUATIC FESTIVALS.

NORTH SHORE REGATTA,

There is no description of sport lor which greater natural facilities arc afforded in this part of the colony, and which is better adapted to insure the health of our youth than aquatic competitions. Our harbour cannot be surpassed in New Zealand, and as previous events have shown our ship and boatbuilders are able to turn out vessels able to hold their own with most outsiders. Already we hold two annual regattas—one in connection with Ponsonby, the other pertaining to the city of Auckland —which up to the present have been eminently suc cessful, and have attracted considerable interest from year to year. Therefore, we have much pleasure in announcing that the North Shore residents—always remarked for their interest in rowing and sailing, and for the assistance both pecuniary and other wise which they lend on such occasions have held a conference and decided to have a Kesatta in connection with their own dis trict on November 9th next. The meeting, Which took place in the Masonic Hotel, Devonport, last evening, was numerously attended,and presided over by Mr J. M. Stark. Unanimity was, the feature of the assemblage, and the result of a long and interest ing discussion was the adoption of the following programme:—(l) Race for cutters; (2) yachts and -fishing boats, 5 tons and under; (3) open sailing boats, over 20 feet; (4) open sailing boats over 20 feet; (5) open sailing boats, under 16 feet; (6) four-.oared gunwale gig race, for nil-comers; (7) four oared pig race for bond fide amateurs; (8) "junior four-oared race ; (9) dingy race, (10) tub race; (11) greasy pole. It was decided that the first event be open to all vessels which may bs classed as bona tide cutters, with no restriction to measurement, yachts being, of course, ex cluded. The three open boat races will certainly attract a large number of com petitors and should all prove interesting contests. In the larger of the three events no restriction will be placed on boats measuring over 24 feet, which arrangement will iio away with the possibility of a few good boats over that measurement being disqualified. The yacht race will probably be the best ' contest ot its kind yet engaged in. Several new boats are building, and several old "cracks "are coming forward, notably the Lala, Jessie Logan, Daisy, City of Naples, and Toy, while Logan's new yacht may try conclusions with old favourites should she be in sailing trim by that time. . The " greasy pole " is a new introduction in this class of sports, the object being to provide a little amusement on the end of the wharf for the special benefit of those persons who prefer to remain on shore. The prize for climbing the pole will most likely be a fat goose, which will be placed on top, to be secured by the climber. The question of providing a flag-ship was discussed at some length. A suggestion was made that the Noith Head be utilised for this purpose, but did not find general favour, a general opinion being expressed that a local steamer shonld be secured and placed midway between the wharf and the Heads. The course over which the sailing races will be run will be somewhat as follows :—From the flag-boat round a buoy moored off the lighthouse; thence round the training schooner; round Daphne's buoy; round bnoy of Calliope, or O'Neil's Point; and back to flagship; twice round. -Should the weather prove southerly and stormy, the rowing races will take place off Cheltenham beach, which .spot is most admirably suited for such contests, and the beach affords a fine view of the races, ■which fact will duly be taken advantage of by residents and visitors. Altogether, the North Shore. Regatta onght to prove a great success. At the meeting last night upwards of £20 were subscribed towards the purchase of prizes, and we hear the young ladies of the district are already busily engaged in working suitable designs in flags, caps, &c, to be presented as trophies to the successful com petitors. Haste will have to be evidenced in all movements, for when the early date is considered it is plain that there is no time to be lost in making arrangements, to carry out the Regatta in proper style. A number of gentlemen were elected to office, as follows : —President, Judge J. E. Mac donald; vice-president, Mr J. B. Russell; treasurer, Mr JR. M. Stark; secretary, Mr C. C. Dacre; committee, Messrs R. M. Stark, C. Dacre, J. Dader, Allison Brothers, Swinnerton, W. Buchanan, Fenton, M. Niccol, Edward Burgess, Charles Bailey, H. Pitts, George Quick, Duder Brothers, T. Brassey, and Booth.

POLICE COURT-This day.

(Before R. C. Barstow, Esq., E.M.)

DRDNKK^rNKgB. — Thomas Welsh and John Nelson were flnad for having been drunk yeßter day. —> John Roche, on remand, was charged -with having been drunk in High-atreet on the 20: li. _ He pleaded guilty, and was fined 5s and COBt9» Babrow NnisANOß.—John Keenan, a fish hawker, was charged with a breach of the city bye laws by allowing a barrow to remain on the carriage road in Queen-street, whereby the said carriage road was obstructed on September 2ith. —Defendant pleaded guilty.—Sergeant Gamble said on Saturday night the man was drinking in the Anchor Hotel. He left the barrow on the roadway and refused to more it. Several people had nasty falls over it. Servant Clarke and Constable Bowman remonstrated with him, but he would not remove the barrow.— Fined 6i and 7s oasts. City Katbs.—William Wilson was charged with falling to pay the amount of £1, city rates, —Mr Tneo. Cooper appeared for the defendant, * and submitted that the form was not a correct one. There were no provisions in th Munici pal Corporations Aot, 1876, for. the recovery of rates,-only regarding how they, should be levied. The Katinjr Aot, 1876, repealed all previous provMons for the recovery of rates. Consequently there was no power to recover debts for rates in a summary manner. Ihe proper manner for recovery of rates was througlfa debt action in tbo Resident Magis trate's Court, and not by a quußi-criminal actioD. Although these proceedings would have been • regular under the Act of 1867, they were Irregular under the Aot of 1876. - The Council should follow the example of the Road Boards and County Councils by suing for arrears of 'raxes through the Resident Magistrate's Court. Some time ago the Council was advised by their solicitors that they bad no authority by Act for bringing these cases,—Mr Phillips said he had not anticipated tbe raising of this ob jection, and he' would therefore ■ ask for an adjournment of the case. —An adjournment till Tuesday was agreed to.—A further case against Mrs Ca-sldy was also ad journed till Tuesday, pending tbe settlement of the point raised. *. •

Father Time is- pictured as an old bald headed gentleman, but he manages toskip arorind quite lively all the same in spite of being handicapped by agricultural imple ments. •

Tliey were touching up their toilets preparatory to the afternoon promenade. "Cicely, my dear, do yon think I need any more colour in my face ?" " That depends. If you only want a delicate blush, you have it just right. Bat if yon want your com plexion to match your hair, put on a little more vermillion." Do-you suppose they walked together that afternoon 2 Mot any.

MINING NEWS.

MINE MANAGERS' REPORTS.

Tiernan's Freehold G.M. Co. -I found new leador yesterday. I have obtained about Slbs of stone from it, showing good blotches of gold. It is 6 inches thick and in good sandstone country. The main drive in the lower level is in 48 feet. The reef is much improved in size and appearance. It is 18 inches thick and well defined, but shows lo gold yet. On the South side of guliy 1 have driven the 12 ieet reef 18 inches. I have seen a few colours in the stone. I havo all ready, waiting for the carter to take the stuff to the miII.—JAMES Murray.— Tiki, September 28.

Southern (Jross. —Stopins is still being continued on specimen leader. A few pounds of picked stone have come to hand from here during the last week, and leader looks very promising. I have had the winze we broke into on No. 1 reef sunk down a distance of 30 feet, but tbe reef at this depth is pinched up very small, and not seeing any gold in the stone in sinking this dapth, I thought it best to discontinue sinking for the present. I have now commenced to open out on reef from winze, and hope to have better success iv driving and stopiug on it. lam also driving on a leader in the hanging of No. 1 reef of battery level. The leader looks well in places, but have seen no gold in it yet. I had a trial lot put through from above battery level, whore cross reef functioned with another leader, but the stuff from here was rather poor. There is ou hand at pre-ent Slbs. picked stone, 4 loads of quartz, and 17ozs. 3dwts. amalgam from G loads of quartz that was crushed after retorting on the 17th insf—JAMES COUTTS.— Grahamstown, September 27th.

Barrett's G.M. Co. Road Level.— This drive is in 87 feet. In my last report I informed you that I had cat a crops leader, but I -find it is part of the main leader that has taken a sudden jump into the hanging ■wall, after driviug on it for 8 feet, ha 9 turned at right angles, and is now running parallel with the drive. After I get the drive timbered up I intend to follow this branch.' It is about 8 inches thick, and carries likely-looking stono for gold. I cut a leader on the surface last Thursday 25 teetfrom your upper boundary. I obtained 6 or Slbs. of poor picked stone, and some fair crushing dirt from this leader on Friday, leaving a little gold showing in the face. I have done no work on it since, ihe wet weather having put a stop to out side work. I intend to continue trenching ou it for a few feet to prove its course. I will then start a drive to intersect it. The leader is about 2 inches thick, but 1 expect it will open out, as I believe it to be the same reef that the JYLatawai Company are at present driving on, which averages Synches in width. The cour.-eof this leader appears to be N.N.E. and S.S.W. with a westerly dip. This course will take it nearly through the centre of your ground.—C. H. Bennett.—Tiki, September 27.

THE COLOUR OP THE UNIFORM OF THE BRITISH SOLDIER DE SCRIBED IN PROPHECY.

(To the Editor.)

SlK,—Your local In .this evening's paper on the Bubject of General Burnaby's scheme for repopulatiog Palestine closes with a pneer at the assertion made by one of the Gene ral's correspondents-that the colour of the uniform of the British soldier is described in prophecy. ■ The grounds for this asser. tion will be found in the second r chapter cf the Prophet Nahum, and runs &% follows : "The shield of His (l.e-f the Lords) miEbty men is made red, the valiant men are in scarlet." Now if words mean any thins? and above quotation is to be taken as it is written, "valiant men in scarlet" can hardly be taken, to imply anything else than "soldiers clothed in scarlet uniforms." So tar as I am aware the Britibh soldier is the only soldier thus clothed, and if, as is clear I think from the context, Israel's soldiers are the ones referred to in the passage quoted, then, either Israel's soldiers and British soldiers are synonymous terms, and the British are Israel; or Israel of the future with her scarlet clad soldiers will yet appear on the scene, usurp the position among the nations . now held by great Britain, and force the latter to serve her or perish. As a patriotic Englishman, I cannot even

imagine such an alternative-. As an Anglo^ Israelite, I am convinced that the alterna tive will never be forced upon us.—l am, & Cij Anglo-Israel.

WELLINGTON, this day. IT was suddenly decided this afternoon, tbat Mr Hall should not go South in tho Hinemoa with his family, but starts with Major Atkinson in the Stella for Opunake as soon as ever she can get up steam.

No explanation is given except that they want ta consult Mr Holies ton, and it is positively stated that nothing new has transpired in native affairs.

SERIOUS OUTRAGE BY NATIVES.

OK the 20th instant a native named Abraham, accompanied by a party of others, went to a paddock at Eangiuru, near Maketu, where Mr Vcrcoe's men were engaged planting potatoes, and stopped them in their work, carrying the potatoes away with them to the other side of the river, where they left them. This occurred "in the morning, and in the afternoon the natives again returned and destroyed a considerable quantity ot fencing, after which they left the place for good. The damage done by the natives is estimated at £200. Although the action of the natives appears alarming, it is not thought any serious results will follow, and it is hoped that through the intervention, of Mr' H. W. Brabant tho matter will be easily arranged.—" B. P. Times."
