SCUFFLE BETWEEN T& WHiTI AND HIS KEEPER. On Paiurday last a struggle took place between To Wbitiand Tohu and Mr Ward, who is iv charge of these natives. It ap pears that a native belonging to the pa at Wakapuna, and who has fr. quontly visited the prophets, became very olfsnsive on his last vi.it, and consequently was told he could not be admitted again. On Saturday Te Whiti and Tohu informed Mr Ward that they intended visiting the pa, and on his ob jecting, they became abusive, an* declared they would go. Ultimately they left their residence, and on stepping into the public road they were ordered back by Mr Ward, and, not complying, tho latter obstructed their passage, and in the struggle Tohu was thrown. Te Wbiti navised returning, and they did so, but in the meantime Mr ward had despatched a messenger to Inspector Atcheson, who speedily arrived with an officer, and told Te Whiti that Mr Ward must be obeyed. Te Whiti expressed surprise at this exhibition of authority.^ He seemed somewhat sulky, and complained that his wife was kept away by Mr tsryce's foldiers. Yosteiday afternoonthe natives seemed more reconciled, it is rumoured that on Saturday Wi Parata had a trnp ready for To Whiti, and Tohu to take them to the native pa, which is distant twelre miles from their residence,

ST. PATRICK'S CATHEDRAL.

IRE solemn and impressive ceremony of tbe Renewal of Baptismal Vows took place on Sunday, September 24th, at St. Patrick's Cathedral. Tbe occasion selected was the feast of our Lady of Mercy, and, being the principal feast ot tho Sisters of Mercy is generally chosen by them tor tbis edifying ceremony. The children assembled iv tho scliool-ioom, and went in procession from there to the Cathedral, The Sodalities wear ingjtheirrespective insignia, and carryingap ptopriate banners, added not a Utile to tho beauty ot the ceremony. The Cathedral was densely crowded, not less than 110Q being present. Tho sisters were in charge of their pupils, and were ably assisted by the members of the Christian Doctrine Society in carrying out the programme. It was most gratifying to see so many of tho parents of the children present, to encour age by their presence the work of religion. After a hymn had been sung.Fnther O'Gara, 0.5.8., ascended the altar steps, and de livered n short but feiyont address to tho children. He told them it was a privilege and an honour for him to be present at such a sight. He thamced the very ruv. pastor for the pleasure of being invited to conduct such a solemn spectacle. He assured the children that it was a most solemn ,-ict they. wero about to per form, viz., to renew with their own lips the vows mado tor them at their baptism by their- sponsors. Be spoke also of tho importance of this great ceremony, and compared it to the vows made by religious orders. After having brought vividly be fore their minds tbo three acts which pre ceded and followed the sacrament, he in formed all present tbat bo had a pleasant task still to perform. He then congratulated the very Rev. Father Walter McDonald on the success of tbe ceremony. He assured all present that he felt Father Walter deserved infin ite credit for the orderly way in which everything waa conducted. He added that :it must be most gratifying to the Very ; Rev. Father to see that his labours and struggles had brought forth such good fruit. Looking around that sacred building he thought he might safely say that there was scarcely one who did not remember Rather Walter working his up-hill and difficult mission for years. His charily and generosity were well known, and consequently, tbey had every reason to be proud ot their Vety Rev. Pastor. He reminded them that gratitude was a virtue dear to Gcd. Let them remember then that tbey owed a debt of gratitude to Father Walter, which they could repay by praying to God for his welfare here and hereafter. Last, but not least, let them pray that God might spare him long to labour amongst us, and continue the good he had commenced with such abundant fruit to souls. Benediction of the most blessed Sacrament was then given by the Rev.FntheF O'Gara, assisted by Very Rev. Father itac donald and Rev. Father Mahonoy. AI iBS King ably presided at the harmonium. The cere« mony concluded by the return of the children in procession to their school.

THE FAMILY BEVERAGE.

Sin,—Having perused in a recent issue of your paper a leading articlo with regard to tea adul teration, I hope that you will bo ablo to find space for tho insertion of these remarks in de fenco of the cup that cheers, so far, at any rate, as concerns its production by tlio Indian grower and manufacturer, who, though not specially mentioned in your notice, still falls under the suspicion of being, with the "Heathen Chinee," an accomplice in palming off on a too confiding publio such compositions as willqw leaves, twice usod tea leaves, dried and re-milled, or foreign (other than tea) leaves, stems, and tea sweepings, held together in little nodules by starch, paßto, and pieces of brick, husk or nutshells, faced with plumbago to give it n black appearance, or eveu na described in the articlo under notloo as a Bort of paßte, rolled out thin and oat into j tho shape ot dried tea loaves. Instead ot the pure.unadultera ted leaf of tho tea plant. Having for somo years had practical exporlenoa of the cultivation and manufacture of tea, In the moßt fertllo toa growing district ot India, viz., Upper A.oam, and having myself sacked, or seen packed, many'millions of poundH of tea, 1 loel justified lv Baying that nover within my own experience, or tbat of any of the numerous planters of my acquaintance, has aslngle pound of Indian tea been adulterated. Iv fact I havo no hesitation in naylng that adulteration amongst Indian manufacturers Is a thing quite unknown. No doubt the grower In China is not accountable (or tbe adulteration, but in thit country tho grower as a rule doos not manufaotare his leaf into tea, but sends It to some oent al manufacturer in the district, who oan, of course, do with it as ho pleaseß. Most of -helirgo estates In India are tbe pro perties of Influential oompaMen, banks, so, ( aud aro managed bj gentlemen of lntugrity and j Bood position, Bpeotally selected and tent out) from Kngland far the purpose, and who go I through a regular oourjo of training on tho estates; tho remainder of tho gaidins are the I private properties ot Kuropoans of moans, a j very few only bolng in tho hands of wealthy natives, who regulate tholr factories on similar prlnolples to thoso ot tholr European neigh bours. The expuaso and labour inouired in adulterating bis to* would not compensate the grower in India for bo doing wore he inclined to try it, that already oxpended in tho cultivation of his eatato and in converting the green loaf Into tea being as great as ho oan. In most Instance, bear without having to work at a loss. Local labour In moat ot the growing distriot. Is either unobtainable or nnsuit- . able, hence the ooolles have to be im ported fiom othor districts at a groat expense, to work the gardens, and as a rule rstates ace short-handed, and require more labour than they are able to obtain or can afford to retain—a dlilloulty whloh baa not to be en countered in China, whero labour Is very ploatlfal. A further reason why the Induce ' ment Is lees to tho Indian than to the Chinese manufacturer to adulterate, is this : whoro-s In -

I hlna almost evory available foot of country Is nnder cultivation of oae sort or another air oad y, and consequently thore Ib so room to Increase extensively the quantity of tea mown In ordor to meet Increasing demand, in India, and par t'cularly in tbat part of ABBam north of the river Brahmapootra, we have va»t trtots of rioh alluvial land, oloihed with vlrjln forest and sultiblo for tea. whoro now the olopbant, Mirer, and deor roam la almost undlsputod vo. session, whioh only require an Inoreased demand for the Indian tea in order to be oleared and placed under cultivation. It ia noodle as to at n to that a taste for Indian tea U not universal even among those who nave once tried tt; Its aupetiorlty In point of strength and l\ ivour does not at once commend it in every oaso to those who have long been used to the artiole manufactured In China, The difference In the two teas is strongly nis-rkod, even in Assam, where tbe Chinese and India or ons plants are fre quently found growing Bide by Bide in a toa narden, the fo mer having been imported from India previous to the discovery of the latter, by the faot that the planter, whenever po. Bible, will eralioate the first and subatltuto for It a acod hybrid or Indigenous plant I have there fore little baaltst.on in saying, that when onoe tbe lea is better known, the public will giro their support to their own oonntryman, uiider whose supervision tbe Indian coolie makes a lenuice artiole. rather than to John Chinaman, for wlio.o .tricks no one Is responsible except himself; and, until they have done co, it will be premature to raiia an outcry for "a new beverage for onr breakfast tables, and a new tbeme for our panegs rice."—l am, Sec, Cha_

Amongst the recent admissions to the Hospital, is a yonng msn named Christian, a Norfolk Islander, and a great grand-son of Christian, one of the leaders ol the mutiny of tbo Bounty. The success of the Curates' Alliance (says the " Pall Mall Gnzette") in preventing the sale of advowsons by the simple if un seemly method of violently interrupting the proceedings has already beon imitated in another direction across the Channel, A French physiologist had been announced to give a public lecture, illustrated by experiments upon live animals, and when the time came was delighted to iind a largo audience, including many ladies. His feelings, however, soon "turned to bitter wrath " when, just as he was prepar ing his first experiment on a frog, one of these ladies sprang upon tbe platform and began protesting, in the manner of the curates, against the practice of vivisection. The lecturer on his part followed the example of the auctioneers, and politely deprecated the interference of " a clerical cabal;" but as French ladies can probably mako more noise even than young English curates, it is not surprising that £be lecturp bad been ahaftdonpd !f* amidst groat Cflnfflsion." There seemsto be do limit to tho developments of obstruc-

tion in these days; and our generation, too, may boast of having discovered "a pew mpthpd"—the iflethod of setting ques tions, pplitjcal, religious, or sejpptjfic, by strength of lung.
