TTrfs Afternoon.

THE TALK FLOWS ON.

WELLINGTON, 2 p.m.

' Two o'clock, and the talk still goes on. The scene is dreary in the extreme; sup porters of the Bill are divided into two watches, of twelve hours each, but it is difficult to keep a house. The Nelson men have done the bnlk of the talk during the day. The Chamber is covered with fragments of paper, and every things looks seedy. The floor has not been swept for three day. Ministers transact all official business in the House, not being able to get to the offices. The supporters of the Bill say they will insist on sitting all Sunday, as the Standing Orders do not prevent that. The gas is kept burning all day, and unless it is fed by the gas from Chamber below the cost will be enormous.

MINING NEWS.

Colon'iAl..— Since my last report we have driven 7ft. in the low level. The country passed through has been hard and bad to work. The leader has been pinched out during the week, but is now making again. We have now Bft. more to drive before com mencing to rise to connect with the winze. Winze leveb —We have driven 6ft. on the leader, with good prospects, having obtained about 12lbs. of specimens. The road to the mine is progressing but slowly, and will not be completed in less than a fortnight.— Gko, Stevens, August 3lst, 1881. Thrush.-Since my last report we have driven our level 24 feet, and I expect to meet with the colonial leader in about 6 feet more, which I expect to accomplish before the end of this week, unless the ground, gets very much harder. I have also done some prospecting on the surface, but have not met with anything of importance. I got a little loose gold in a leader running up the gully hetween the Hope and Colo nial leaders, and I intend to do some more work on this leader on the first opportunity. —HABBY Thodb, August 31st, 1881. Little Nell,—ln Dreaking down I got some very rich specimens, out of the leader to-day. The four men now employed are hard at work breaking down the leader.— S. Lawbie.

Home Rule. — Since my last report, 1 got the richest stones hitherto obtained from a leading oponing stope on the low level. I am still stoping back. The general stuff from the whole of the stopes continues good, showing blotches of gold. —J. KIKBY, August 31.

Maori Win G.M.C.—I beg to report the following ■works executed in this mine the last fortnight:—Bottom Level : I have driven twenty-eight (28) feet from the open set. The leader is small, but with a very promising indication for gold. I intend letting sixty feet (60) by contract next ■week, No. 1 Level: I have driven ten (10) feet; the reef 15 inches thick. In our last taking down I got some stone showing.nice coarse gold. lam also prospecting on the surface 60 feet from the boundary, towards the Tiki claim, and cut a leader 5 inches thick, showing good gold. I have started to intersect this leader in our own ground near where the gold was got on the other side of our boundary.—JOHN Blewett. BISMABCK.—There has been no change of of any consequence underground since my last report. The work Sat present is con fined wholly to the stopes, but in none of them has any discovery ■worth recording been made during the week. Gold is now and again visible, and in most of the faces the quartz looks sufficiently well to induce a belief that an improvement in the quality of the general crushing stuff will shortly take place. The stampers have been going on a parcel sent to the battery on Monday last, but the show on the plates so far is rather poor. In a former report I mentioned that sinking had been stopped in the winze at the south end of intermediate level. Payable stone was got in it to a depth of 25ft, at which the gold seemed to dip out to the end. There is every probability that a good block exists in that part of the mine, but to work it to advantage it will be necessary to put up a tise of about 70 feet from the low level to connect with the winze. I beg to recom mend a commencement of this work, to gether with tha extension of the inter mediate level to the Tokatea boundary at as early a date as possible, because the future prosperity of the mine is largely dependent on them.—J. A. Dobson, Manager, Sep tember Ist.

THE MEMBERS AND THE LAND LEAGUE.

(To the Editor.)

SjSi The remarks in a letter signed " .Elector," in reference to certain represen tatives, including the member for City East, having attended a public meeting in Wellington, seem to be conceived in so narrow a spirit, and conveying by implica tion so gross a mis-conception of the object of the meeting referred to, that a few remarks from another and it is hoped a more liberal point of view may not be deemed in admissable. "Elector"may or may not be satisfied with Mr Speight, but he is not justified in castiDg aspersions on his loyalty in his absence. He is evidently labouring under a confusion of ideas and as there may be others equally ignorantit maj be worth while to try to point out in what this confusion consists. Troubles in Ireland seem in his mind to be in separably associated with disaffsction to the Sovereign. This ia a mistake. Riots in England or Scotland, such as those which occurred at the .Reform Bill, and on other occasions, might he as justly put down to the same cause. This ja less likely when these disturbances are _of _ a purely agrarian origin. The agitation for the repeal of the Union may have had an element of diasatisfatioq in it, likewise Home Bule, although this has always (and with every justification) been strenuously denied. The Land League is more distinctly separated from any idea of dls loyalty than either of these. It is a move ment instigated and sustained wholly by that same sentiment, which induced many persons in these colonies of all nations to subscribe towards the famine relief fund, viz., to better "Wie condition and to save from future possible starvation and extinction a very large pro portion of the Irish peasantry. The con tusion that your correspondent seems to labour under apparently arise from affilia tory Fenianism on the Land League. They have no connection historically, they co exist nothing more. The Porteous Kiots in Edinburgh might as well have been ascribed to Jacobitism. Patriotism and loyalty ought to be united, the former, however, is a nobler quality than the latter, and for the same reason humanity is superior to both. It is the latter sen timent which . has induced our liberal representatives to attend a meeting to express sympathy for a people ground to the dust by acts of oppression— on organised systen of eviction — acts not perpetrated by the Sovereign. The Coercion Act has been forced on, the' Government by the acts of an over-ruling class, which has proved itself a disgrace to humanity, by its deliberate cold-blooded acts of cruelty. Legality is no justification for inhumanity such as turning helpless women _ and children out in the snow to die of cold and starvation. On the plea of legality, Shylock was justified, not only in demanding, but in cutting out his pound of flesh. To do otherwise than sympathise with a people exposed to endure such miseries as these heartless monsters of land lords, through their agents, have been inflicting, would or ought to be impossible. As for loyalty, it has nothing to do with it. To " Elector" and others I would merely say, a la Carlyle, " Clear your mind of cant." As for making electioneering capital out of such circum stances, it is the idea of a lunatic who must imagine City East to be an asylum.-r- Yours, &c,, SPBOTOK.

[FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT]. THAMES, this day. The Warden gave his decision this morn ing in the case of Eagan and party v. Green ville, in which judgment was reserved on a former occasion. He had already decided that as the tnbuters had not actually broken their agreement, Greenville's re entry was illegal, and therefore the; complainants had just rights for. claiming damages. To assess the amount of damage sustained was a much more difficult matter. He ultimately gave judgment for £13 10s, equivalent to the wages of six men for one week. The costs of the case amounted to £16 ss. NEW PLYMOUTH, this day. Telephonic communication between Egmont lighthouse and Pungarehu has just been completed. WELLINGTON, this day.

RESIDENT MAGISTRATE'S COURT.—This Day.

(Before J. E. Macdonald, Esq., F.M.)

The following cases were heard yester day afternoon after we went to /press : — McLbllan V. CLARKE.—CIaim, £38 10s.—Mr Dufaur for plaintiff, Mr Theo. Cooper for defendant.^-This was a claim for commission on a charter party, and the question raised was of some importance to the mercantile community. The evidence of the plaintiff, Mr E. E. Smith, Mr Batt, Mr Uordon, Joseph Craig, and Captain Clark was taken, and disclosed an intro duction by the plaintiff of the defendant to Mr Crai», who afterwards chartered the defendant's vessel, the East Lothian. The value of the charter was about £750. The plaintiff claimed 5 per cent, commission on the charter, alleging that he was entitled to it as a shipbroker.-Mr Cooper, on behalf of the defendant, stated that he would call no evidence, and mored for a nonsuit, on the ground that the plaintift had no cause of action. He contended that the mere introduction by an agent of one person to another did not entitle the agent to com mission when a contract had been entered into or a sale made between the parties. There was nothing more, he submitted, in this case. He quoted authorities to support that view.—Mr Dufawr replied, and con tended that his client had a right to the commission, because if he had not intro duced the parties the charter would not have been accepted. He also quoted authorities, —His Worship was not prepared

to decide without reviewing the oases quoted, and reserved judgment till next Court day. , Macffaelane v. Sheehan.—Claim, £22, goods supplied.—Mr S. Hesketh for plaintiff, Mr Theo* (Jooper for defendant.— This was a claim for goods supplied by the firm of R. Whitson and Son. The book debt of the firm had at the time of disolution been assigned to the plaintiff for collection of the firm's accounts. —Thomas Macffarlane proved the assignment and his capacity to sue.—Mr C. Walker, accountant to Whitson and Sons, gave evidence as to the supply of the goods and payment by the defendant.— Mr Cooper submitted that the plaintiff had not proved his case, and that there was no evidence before the Court on which the Court could ground a judgment.—Mr Hesketh replied.—His Worship agreed with Mr Cooper.and non-suited the plain tiff. Costs, £3 3s Od. The Court then rosei

The following telegram has been received at Coromandel from Mr Sheehan :—" Wel lington, August 30. J. Cadman, Coro mandel, — Government decline to alter boundaries or add third member on basis ot district. lam opposing bill in consequence, —J. Sheehan." A very pleasant social gathering of the teachers and some of the members of the Bible Classes of St. James' Sunday School, 1 was held last evening in the hall. Tea was provided at 6.30, and daring the remainder of the evening several selections of vocal and instrumental music were rendered, and a variety of social games indulged in. An interesting item in the programme was the presentation to Mrs McLean of a handsome volume, in recognition of her valuable ser vices as a teacher in the school, prior to her marriage. Uev. R. F. Macniccol made the presentation in a complimentary speech, and Mr M. McLean suitably responded. The gathering was a very sociable and thoroughly enjoyable one. - • Our oontemporary the " Herald," has erred sliKhtly In the Information having reference to the arrival at Sydney, of a schooner named the " Nautilus," after having 'experienced ter rible weather during a trip from the Islands thence. For the information of those who have friends In the German schooner of that name, ■which has twice visited this port, and where officers and men are bo well known here we have undertaken to make the oorreotion. An American trading sohooner named the Nan tills, experienced very boisterous weather on her passage from the Islands to Sydney, which fact was of course chronicled in the news papers at the latter port. Our contemporary, jumping to the conoluaion that the unfortunate vessel was our old friend the German schooner! presented the item, with a slight alteration to, its reader. The German eohooner Nautilus Is now on her way home, two months out from Sydney, and, therefore, could not possibly have been the vessel referred to.

" Set a thief to catch a thief," is an axiom of much astuteness, which has prob ably inspired a good many of the gendar merie appointments recently made by the Government ot Kastern Boumelia. It has its inconveniences, however, as the following in cident which occurred a short time ago near Novikoff serves to illustrate: A party of gen darmes sallied forth from that town in search of robbers, reported to be infesting the neighbourhood. In the course of their quest they came upon a respectable Turkish farmer jogging along homewards from the Novikou mar ket, where he had sold wool to the amount of some three hundred pounds. That he had the cash about him the gendarmes ap pear to have divined by some, strange in tuition, for these zealous fellows promptly surrounded him, cut him to pieces, divided his cold among them, and rode back in triumph to Novikoff, where they claimed to have done the State good service by destroying one of the most inveterate and dangerous brigands of the district. The murdered farmer's relatives have taken out proceedings against the gendarmerie in the ttoumelian Courts ; but it does not appea to be confidently expected in the province that their suit will lead to any alteration in the present character of that remarkable force.

The corruption of Russian officials is proverbial. The utter ignorance, the super lative indifference to public oponion and the extrfcvagence with which the affairs ot the Government is carried on in Russia would make a star-route swindler on navy-yard contractor in America turn green with envy over his own comparative insignificance as a practitioner in such matters. One of the latest samples of Russian management is the story of the Cathedral of Novochercousk, in the territory of the Don Cossacks. This abortive edifice, "in hand" for nearly three qu arters of a century, has just been con demned bytheimperialarehitectural survey ors to be pulled down and carted away. Millions have been squandered upon, the structure. It has been a chronic source of fortune to all the functionaries successively connected with its erection. In the year 1844, being then in a state approaching com pletion, it suddenly collapsed and crumbled to pieces. Ninteen years later, while under going the roofing process, it walls again fell in. Ever since that second catastrophe it has remained a total wreck—a mere heap of roms—until a few weeks ago the fiat went forth from St. Petersburg that what re. raained of it was to be leveled with the ground, at an estimated outlay of 70,000 roubles. Another was the abandonment of the partially built Cathedral of Our Saviour at Moscow, the site of which, after 2,000,000 of roubles had been expended upon vain efforts to lay its foundations, was '' accidentally discovered " to be a sandhill, intrinsically incapable of sustaining the a acred building's weight.
