The second day's coursing in the match earae off on Saturday, and was attended by about fifty persons. In the morniog hares were very scarce and no run was obtained. In the afternoon Mr McLaughlin's pad docks, which he bud kindly placed at the disposal of the club, were gone over and hares wore more plentiful. Kaiser and Mus ket were the first pair to meet, but as Mus ket had gone lame since the last day, Kaiser ran a bye. Perfume and Black Harry were then placed on the slips, and after a very short but severe course Perfume won. Black Harry showed good speed and fought hard for the victory, but Perfume, by a clever kill, decided the course. Highland Boy and , Petronel were then put in the slips, and after one or two unsuccessful slips were sent away after a fine hare. Petronel, who had been run ning well through the match, was too much for the young dog who, though only thirteen months old, fought him bard for the course, and no doubt will be beard of in any future match, Pinfire and Lady Nelson were then slipped, but Pinfire proved superior to .the little slut, and won his course without giving her a show to get inside, Perfume then met Kaiser in the final round, mid after a long and hard worked course tho hare proved too much for both of them; the course was won by Perfume. Pinfire and Petronel then came together, and the excitement rose • high, as. b-ith dogs were fancied. For some time it was doubtful which would win, and both dogs' names were beard from all parts as each in succession took the lead, at length Petronel, with a grand spurt, succeeded in killing Just on the edge of the cover, win ning the course. Petronel and Perfume were then to'come together, but as it was nearly dark the owners decided to djvide, causing much disappointment to spectators, as .everyone expected'to see a hard-fought course for first place. The match resulted as follows:—Gillard's Petronel and Dcr van's Perfume divided Ist and 2nd stakes; Bnckland's Pinfire 3rd, Chermside's Kaiser 4th. The club is to be complimented on the success of its firat match, which has been carried out successfully, and to the satisfaction of everyone concerned.

SIR JULIUS VOGEL'S VISIT.

[BY TELEOKAPII.—PRESS ASSOCIATION.]

CHKISTCHUKCII, this day. The " Times" tbis mornirjg says tho ap proaching viait of Sir Julius Vogel to the colony has revived the rumours as to the piobability of his re-entering the political arena.

The same paper, referring to the West Coast railway, says Sir Julius Vogel ad vises that a syndicate of English capitalists are prepared to construct the railway if a small concession can be obtained from the Government, and that ho will .interview Ministers to ascertain whother that will bs conceded.

DENTON'S LECTURES.

Professor Denton delivered a lecture on "The Origin of Man" on Friday night in the lorno-strect Hall to a largo audience, whose clofe attention he maintained from beginning to close. Starting with some general remarks upon the universality of life and the count le=s diversities of form and condition in which it exists upon our planet, he went on to assail the doctrine of its miraculous origin. As science marched on, ho said, miracle retreated further and further within the congenial shade where superstition and ignorance work together, and there was every reason for believing that the time would soon arrive when kuowlcdge would be so generally diffused that no one would be found to deny the universal operation of natural laws. It was most reasonable to conclude that life must have come into existence originally by virtue of law, passing gradu ally by the continued operation of these natural laws, from its first simple forms ' into the varied conditions under which we saw it to-day. He firmly believed that there was a law of vitality, just as there was one of crystallisation, under which, by the influence "of heat and moisture, lite was produced without eggs or pro-existent germs, in which opinion he differed widely from Darwin, who held that all life had spruDg from ono common organic germ, into which the Creator breathed the breath ot life. To his mind, fully developed 'man might as well be carried across this bridge as the monad—the miracle might just as well have been performed for one as for the other. Scientific men were about equally divided as to tbis theory of tbe spontaneous genera tion of life, In favour of it there were Owen (the greatest British naturalist of the age), Haeckel (the most illustrious of all .European naturalists), and J. W. Draper (until his death a few months ago the highest physiological authority in America), and against it thero were Tyndali, Hnxley, and others. The laws by which this was effected were thoso of development of species, variation, tendency, hereditary transmission, modification and natural selection, and, having laid down this proposition, the lecturer went on to give Instances of the working of each. Hb did not believe, he went on to say, in tbe operation of what were described as blind laws, for laws were with him only the methods by which tho in-dwelling, infinite, and intelligent spirit worked.' People should be ashamed to propound such a miserable ttory as that of man having been in full growth and development made out of dußt and planted in a primeval garden, and hej ventured to say that 20 years hence every intelligent man and woman would be ashamed of it.. The lec turer went on to cite anatomy in proof of his theory of tho origin of man, by point ing out the similarity of the human form in general structure to the forms of the lower animals, and by showing how litttle difference there was between the human fcetus and dogs, fish, cows, etc., in the same rudimentary antenatal stage. An exhibition of disaolviog views followed.

Notwithstanding the very boisterous weather of Saturday evening, a compara tively large number of people assembled at the Lome-street Hall to hear the last lecture of Professor Denton's second coarse, the subject beiDg "The Future of this Planet and of Mau upon it." The lecturer commenced his discourse by remarking upon the strong disposition that man had ever had to peer into futurity, seeking in the past by such occult means as astrology, chiromancy, and necromancy to know what was to hefal him, and in the present age trying equally hard to discover effort.he said quite vain after all, when men tried the secrets of the future. Nor was the to forecast the future by the scientific teach ings of the past, and no part of science was moro reliable for these vaticinatory pur poses than geology. It taught ns that the planet was about 200 millions of years old, and that as man had not been more than a million years an inhabitant upon it, while many millions of years had been required for the development of the lower forms of life, he was but yet in his babyhood, and therefore almost incapable of com prehending bia glorious destiny. The earth had passed successively through the age of fishes, the ate of reptiles, the age of birds, and the age of beasts, and now the age of man was ap proaching. Gradually, but surely, every thing inimical to man's welfare on the globe would disappear from it. Weeds and poisonous plants would be eradicated, venomous reptiles, noxious insects, and ravenous beasts would be destroyed,and, by his increasing knowledge.man would be en abled even to master, orset at defiance the ele ment* themselves, In that good time, too, the use ot alcohol would cease, tobacco-smok ing be uuknown, and the use of such stimulants as tea and coffee be discon tinued. Millions of years must elapse be fore man attained his matntity, and even then his age would be far extending. The usual exhibition of views followed. Last night Profesaor Denton lectured on "Sin in the Light of Science," and tbis evening he delivers a geological lecture to school children in the Newton Athenaeum,

DR. WALL'S AND THE REV. MCKENZIE FRASER.

(To the Editor of the Stab.)

Sib, —With his characteristic slipperlness Dr Wallis endeavours to wriggle out of his false position. He thinks I was asleep, does he? I will now show him that I was wide awake to his blunders. For half-an hour he "havered away," as we say in Scotland, about the eccentricity of the earth's orbit and the precession of the equinoxes, letting his audience infer that the one was the cause of the other 1 Shades of Galileo and Newton, what a successor you have got 1 I challenge Dr, Wallis and his entire audience to assert that he said a single word on the true cause of the pre cession of the equinoxes—the circular movement of the poles. Had he done so, I should certainly never have propounded my question. Dr. Wallis asks, " Why I did not expose his ignorance before his audience instead of rushing into print to proclaim scornfully his ignorance of what every school-boy knows ? " My answer is that his somewhat petulant but posi tive answer, "There is no such motion; the theory has been abandoned," showed that diacnßsion on the subject was unwel pomp. And what was my entire question, but a protest against his doctrine 1 Had Dr. Wallis, without being "a learned astronomer," possessed a ',' know ledge probably not very much greater than my own," he would (1) have understood my question without'diflicnlty, however " con fused " the language in which he alleges it was couched; (2) he would in his lecture have referred the piecession of the equinoxes to its true cause, and not have left his audience to infer that, it arese from the " varying eccen tricity of the earth's orbit"; (3) he 'would not have ventured to state that every [schoolboy was acquainted with & subject on which well-educated men need not be ashamed to confess their ignorance ; (4) nor would he have written a reply, which he intended to be smart, but which he has only succeeded in making abusive. It reminds me ef the celebrated missive handed across the barrister's table, "No case; abuse plaintiff's counsel."—l am, See., T. McKenzie Peases.

THE FATAL FIRE IN DUNEDIN.

FURTHER PARTICULARS.

Heroic Struggle of Mrs Kitchener

to Save Her children

(BY TBLEOKAPH-OWN CORRESPONDENT.)

DUNEDIN, Saturday night. Later accounts say Mrs Kitchener oc cupied one bedroom with two daughters and the baby. She was awakened by a sensation of r-uffocation, and hearing the children coughing. She woke the children and went into the next room, and called her husband, with whom two of the boya were sleeping. She lifted the baby out of the cot, linked the arm of the eldeet girl iv her hand, and dragged the other girl by tho hand along the pas sage; she was met by the flames, and, at the stair-head, the eldest girl succumbed to the smoke and fell. The brave woman struggled on through the flames, still re taining hei hold on the other girl, till she reached the foot of ths stairs, where the flames raged terribly. A policeman now burst in the front door, and, seeing the child was dead, disengaged her from Mrs Kitchener, and the baby was thus got out the front door, not from the second story as before telegraphed, She is much burnt. Captain Kitchener managed to throw the eldest boys out at ths uppor window, falling into tho street, and tried to rescue the others, but the flames drove him back. He is fearfully bruised by the fall, and has sustained severe internal injuries. He has been delirious ever since, Mrs Kitchener, who retains all her faculties, thinks the firo originated from careleis use of colooial coal,

Dr Caughtrey, who was in attendance, at first despaired of the recovery of Capt. Kitchener, the wife, or baby.

CAPT. KITCHENER'S BIOGRAPHY.

Captain Kitchener served for many years in tho 41st Regiment, tho greater part in Jamaica, where he was maimed. In 1864, he was induced to come to Now Zealand to manage tho estate of his uncle, Colonel Kitchener, at Wnihomo, near Pulmerston, He relinquished tho management 4 years ago, when fortune frowned on him. Their circum stances became worse, and six months ago he opened a boarding establishment in the house where the firo occurred. As every article is destroyed and not insured, the fire renders them absolutely ponniless. General sympathy is expressed for tho un fortunate family. Tho scene at the recovery of tho bodies was heartrending.

DUNEDIN, Sunday.

Captain Kitchener rccovorrjd conscious ness on Saturday, and hopes of his recovery are now entertained. Mrs Kitchener and the baby are believed to be out of danger. A large sum was collected on Saturday for the assistance of the victims by the fire. Captain Kitchener and infant are danger ously ill. At the inquest a verdict of accidental death was returned. The jury expressed the opinion that Constable Dwyer was deserving of praise for his exer tions to save life.

* WELLINGTON, tbis day,

The Supreme Court Criminal Sessions commenced this morning before judge Richmond. His Honor, in charging the Grand Jury, said there wero only 6 cases on the present list, and he would bo able to con gratulate them on the shortness of the calendar, but, unfoitunatcly, it con tained one charge of a. brutal offence with a class which were only too familiar in this group of colonies, to which he need not further allude. The Legislature of this colony had seen fit to increase the severity of punish mont awarded to this class of offence beyond that which was in nse in England, though we had not, as yet, resorted to that in vogue in New South Wales, where it was punishable with death. He wished be could say that he thought the increase in the severity of the law bad been attended by a diminution in tho fre quency of the crime. He could not say that, this was so, however, for tho offence still continued far too frequent. His Honor added that these first days of Criminal Sessions,, he must confess, seemed to him like tho days < f sackcloth and ashes, in which they usually bad to deplore the prevalence of crime, and also, he might say, impptonco of mere law to suppress it.

Mr Superintendent Thomson leaves for the Thames this evening to enquire into the charges preferred by Detective Farrell against Sergeant O'Grady. So many of the hands of H.M.S. Nelson are ashore at the present time that the vessel was not able to coal to-day as was intended.
