SETTLEBS FOR GRANT AND jfOSTER'S BLOCK.

jusr now New Zealand seems to be in great favour'amongst intending emigrants, and if Sir Francis Dillon Bell were only empowered to carry out a system of free or assisted emigration, we have no doubt that very many valuable additions would be made to the coltgfi, -"specially nmong.t the agricalturi.l element is there a desire to begin life afresh in New Zealand. Recently Messrs Miles Bros,, the agents of the Union Fire and Marine Insurance Company of New Zealand in London, have been advertising for farmers and farm labourers to settle on the To Aroha block of laud, which was selected by the Lincolnshire delegates, Messrs (.rant aud Foster, and who have made terms with the Colonial Government ior forming an English settlement there. The first party, as cur readers are well aware, armed m the colony last year. Messrs Miles Bros are commissioned to send oat another party of 150, and the applications bave been far in excess of tbe number required. lney wilfnot aU go out in tho same ng>£«* goodly number we hear, will sail I*the Essterhill on March 25. loose wno nave money to invest are offered tana, on easy termsi Of payment, at £2 to £3 per acre wane bona fide labourers and workmen will have a cottage and three acres of land provided for them, at a tent of £6 per annum, with the option of purchase at a nominal price. We do not, how ever, see that this is any very great draw, since there are several parts of Scotland where a labourer pays only from £1 to £2 a year for his cottage, and the same amount for each aore of land. But judging.from the letter which Mr Grant has receiyed from Mr Cox, who took out the lust party, it Is evident that tiiey are well pleased with Te Aruh. and their prospect**, and II it he true that tho rich swamp lland which abounds in tho district can bs turned into "splendid agricultural land, without any very great expenditure on the part of the settler, we may shortly expect to hear very encouraging accounts indeed of the progrcsa of the settle ment, which we understand is only forty two miles by road and seventy by-water Irom Grahamstown. In the fact that Messrs Grant and Foster have decided to settle in the colony themselves, the emi {.rants may see proof of the accuracy of the favourable reports which they have made on their retnrn home. Mr Grant, we hear, has bought in all 17,500 acres of land at To Aroha, besides exchanging his farm ot 2,000 acres in Lincolnshire with Mr looth, an old Australian, for an estate of 10,500 acres in Canterbury, with 12,000 sheep.

TRICKETT IN ENGLAND.

Trickett arrived in London on March Ist. He had a rough passage, his vessel being four days overdue. He seems to be in ex cellent health, and announces hi-welf as looking forward anxiously to the chancei of an encounter with Hanlan. On March 3rd the Canadian and the Australian met and talked matters over, and a match was made for £500 a-aicie, to come off in May on the Thames, Pen dragon, of the "Referee," says the history of sculling affords no parallel to the present engagement, and he is quite un equal to the task of remembering a man Who was matched for £500 a-side, sinipiy because he had been already beaten m the most unequivocal manner for less than half the money. " Anglo-Australian' writes: - Trickett has just gone into training, and, advarae comment notwithstanding, he says he means to win this time. I hear he is to, have a new boat, carefully adjusted to his weight and length of reach, and that he means to neglect nothing that may add to bis chance oi winning. He is in high spirits, and certainly looks in good form, so' that his supporters are not altogether despondent of his fl ucc<.sß. It may be added that Mr Lett, who knows more about Irickett and his prospects than perhaps any one in England, aDd who has made this present (natch, is exceedingly hopeful that .riokett will be able to wipe out his previous defeat. With the knowledge Mr Lett possesses, 1 hear that he thought himself justified in making a match for the large sum of £500 a-side, and he naturally trusts to the patriotism of his fellow, colonists to assist him ia making up this large stake. ORIGIN OF THE NAME OF DUNE DIN. With reference to the name of "Dune din " Mr William Chambers states in his interesting fifty years' reminiscences which appeared in the February part ot "Cham berVs Journal," that it was he who aug nested the name of Dnnedm for the town when the intention of its founders was to call it New Edinburgh. Mr Chambers pointed out that America was overrun with New This and New That (giving. New York, New Orleans, and other places as examples), and recommended them to fix upon Dunedin, the old Celtic name of the capital of Scotland, instead of New Edinburgh This advice was acted upon, and we think that the inhabitants when they find what a narrow escape was made from another "New" (New Zealand being quite enough) must feel gratelul to Mr William Cham bers. PROPOSED AMERICAN SUBSIDY TO AN.AUSTRALIAN SERVICE. Tho Bill for the establishment ot a new mail steamship service between America and England, and authorising the ap propriation of a sum of two million fife hundred thousand dollars for that purpose, haa been reported back to the- Honse of Representatives.

THE FATAL AFFRAY ON THE WEST COAST.

_mi>V&CB AT THE INQUEST.

(BY T__l-GRA-_..— TBXS6 ASSOCIATION.)

. MANUTAHU, this dny. AT the inquest on the body of the Maori, a nnmbiir of witnesses were examined yesterday. Several deposed to the foot that a blow with a blue gum about four feet long was struck by the landlord ot the hotel; The evidence is conflicting as to the Maori who was struck. One witness assettfl that two Maoris were struck, and the second Maori with the stick on his head, Tekuka is under examination this morning. The evidence of Europeans is also conflicting as to whether the de. ceased is the one wbo was struck by Gallagher with tho stick. The inquest continued till 11 P-m- last night, andWaß resumed this, morning, before Dr. Gibbs. The evidence is very voluminous. Still ' The doctor's evidence is to the effect that at the post mortem examination he found a large clot of blood between the skull and the covering of the brain. The clot extended along the whole ot the leftside of the skull, and was sufficient to cause death. The immediate cause of death was effiision of ' blood, on the brain. The' tolury waa such as would be caused by \ .ewe Wow from a^ heavy blunt instrument. I only examined the head.. B is net possible that the wound could have been caused by a kick from the horse^ 1 form this opinion from its situation, and the nature of the contusion. Tho injuries from a kick would be different A man might travel some distance after receiving finch a blow without showing that he had received a aevere injury. Such an injury Was hot likely to be caused by a fall from a horse at the plate where the body was found,

MEETING OF PARNELL BURGESSES.

THK £11,000 LOAN.

A pubmc meeting of the burgesses of ParneU for tho purpose of considering the proposal to borrow £U,OOO for the provision of a water supply and drainage system for the Parnell Borough, was held at the Parnell HaU last evening. Tbere were abont 250 persons present, His Worship the Mayor (K. Walker. Esq ) pre sided, and initiated the proceedings by read ing the advertisement convening the meeting, the Btatutory announcement concerning the loan, and the requisition from the ratepayer to himself requesting him to oall the meeting. He aaid the plans and all the necessary infor mation wore in tho hall, and Mr Boylan was preoared to give any information oa tho subieot in his power. Whatever might bs the result ot the discussion here to-night, a poll ot tbe ratepayers would decide the accept ance or otherwise of ;the proposals. He did not In tend to enter into the general utility of a water supply and drainage system ; tbe speakers foi-1 lowing him would no doubt do that. It was not the intention to utlll»e the drainage soheme as a means of oarrying off the solid matter and ex creta, bat for removing the household drainage which at present lay fostering ln the water tables, to the danger of the health of the dis triot! I

Mr McKenzie moved, " That having regard to the health end well-belpg of this borough, a loan of £6.000 ibe raised, to supply tho borough with a good and pure supply of water." He thought thore was very l'ttio doubt as to the desirability of this matter. This year they had had plenty of rain, and consequently there had been no soarclty of water. At other times; however, there was a scarcity. Thoro had been a good deal of sickneafl, whioh was traceable to the want ot water. The house drainage had depos ited itself ln varlons portions ot the borough, and they had no means of cleansing it effeotual ly. The time had come whon they wanted a pure supply of water, and that they mast go oat ot tho hnroush to obtain It. The sahemo was a very good one, and the amount of the Interest, Id in the £, was very light. It would not amouit to moro than the prioe of a glass of beer a weok. Home years ago a scheme had boon propounded, but It did not propose to supply the whole borough wlih wator which the present sohomo did. He re ferred to tbe nd vantages that would accrue to ths residents in the matter of' oheap firo In surance, and an improvement ln tho sanitary condition of tho borongb. In oonolusion he read a printed extract minutely describing the scheme. Mr Cousins seconded the motion. He said that of all the blessings man had in a civilised stat. the best was a plentiful supply of pure water. He urged tho acceptance of the proposal. He only hoped that tbe cruel scheme of drainage would not be used ln connection with the water supply, to pollute the uaroour. It the water waa to ba supplied, It should not be used for the purpose of oarrying excreta Into the harbour. Mr Abbott Bald he thooght they would be remiss in their duty as ratepayers if they did not take into their serious consideration this matter before arriving at a decision. They were told the sohemo would cost £6.000; but it ral-ht cost £9.(00 or oven £12,000. So far as he was concerned he did not want a water supply His water came direot from heaven, dear as crystal, cold as an ioe berg, and duty paid. He believed that the population of Parnell would very muoh increase during tho next few years; immigration of the right sort was fettlng ia, and there should bo means of providing for the wants of suoh a population as might be expeo ted. He related an anecdote of an Australian bishop, the moral of which was to provide receptacles and conservo the rain water.. It had been Bald that the introduction of the supply would effect a groat reduotion oa the insurance ot their houses. Ho thought they would neod to take a microscope to soe the reduction. He reminded them that ihey would bave to pay the rate whether tbey took tho water or not, and ratooimonded them to look before they leapt. The speaker tho'a proceeded to address himself to the drainage question, whon he was ruled out of Order by the chairman. Mr Abbott continued that the circular issued by the Council was misleading. Ho said thero was no fear of Arc, as during the many years of his residenoe lo Parnell nat a Single death had been occasioned by tire, and he was Bare tho destruction ot prooerty had not exoeoded £10,000. In oon olusion, be suggested that if they were to have the Bupply. double-barrelled mains be laid down, so that Seccombe oould pump beer Into tbo one aad water into tbe other, (Cheers and laughter.) Mr Strange read a long speech condemning the proposal. Its purport waa that It waa im possible to say that the engineers' estimates were adequate, and that onoe the work waa begun it would have to be completed what ever the cost. Tho health of the suburbs had been' prajudloially affected by the underground drainage of the oity, tho water of the harbour having been fouled and the atmos phere tainted. Mr Savage said ho thought tha Council might havo taken a poll before they went to the ex pense of engaging Mr Boylan's services. Ho thought tho preparation of tho scheme Bhould haxo ocen put up to public torder. If any of tho Councillors had been doing it for themselves thoy would have oalled for tenders, He had been in formed that the work could havo boen dose for £50 With reference to tho water supply, he might say that in ten years the property noar Seccombo'a well would bo all built on, and then they would bo purchasing sewage water from tho Messrs Seccombe at 3d p.-rIOOO gallons. If tijey wanted a supply they should got it from A ratepayer asked tho Engineer what would bo the cost of the wator supply. Mrßoylan said the estimate was £6,000, and the work could bo done for that amount. In answer to Mr Abbott, Mr Boylan said the engineers had made a series of experiments at the well. Thoy had worked a i-inch pump for two days and two nights with a reduction of four feet in the depth of water in tho well, and had not been able to reduce it more than that, During the time tho pumping had been going on 90 000 gallons per diem had been pumped. Mr Abbott osk-d what guaranteo had thoy that the spring could not be cut off? ' Mr Cousins spoko in support of the motion, showing the fallaoy of somo of Mr Abbotts Mr Fowler said I hat not one-half of the streets in Parnell appe_Ted m the sohedule. (This statement was questioned by the Chairman.) The Bpeakor then proo-odoa JO criticise the report adversely. Messrs Seccom_o would only derive about £160 per annum from tho water, At th*reqae--ot the Mayor, Mr Boylan read a list of the streets through whioh the service would be laid, with the cost ot eaoh seotion of tho work. Mr _mith recommended the rate oavers to have S-Gocomb-'s water if they knew what it would cost Asa preventive of flre the supply would beof Uttle use. Mr Boylan gave the pressure at various points In the borough. _.'■■_ ' ,_ Mr J, F. Olarko said that Mr Beooombs would, set about £1,3— por annum for the watersupply. He had been Informed )jy the Insurancei agents that if the supply weto Introduced the pre miums would be reduoed *5 per cent. Caotoin Thomas spoke ln support of the reaor lutton: ho had spoken to the Kngineer on the su-jeot, and had been assured that the supply would be ample for the wants of the borough; he said thot no practical objeotioßS had been raised to the proposal, and he wos surprised that Borne Of th- speakers shoul.d have treated his Worship. thelMMOr ot the Oounci, so badly. The chairman eauj.; Katepayars rated at _W a year, who would bave to nay 6. a year, woflld have the samo advaatages as those rated at £500. who contributed £12 7s 8d a year. The flgn.es woold convey tha whole meaning Of tho .resent question. He had caused to beoompiled from the Counoil books a table showing the amouata whioh ho.-eholders would contribute wr annum. 37 pe-io-s rated at £10 (gayjßs 9d a mil 11- roted at between. «l 6 and £20 Us 3d) X at between ~W and £30 0-s -dl.'M bstween £-0 and £-. MM. 78 between W and £100 (£2 6s »-), 2- between £160 ond £200 W MM-. U above £200 (£l2 7s 6d). Mr Abbott then moved as on amendment— "That it Is neither requisite, npcassary, nor de sirable to Introduoe _ water Supply into Par nell at the present juncture." He tben pro ceeded to "dress down" Cap- Thomaß. deny- Int. that any imputation had been oast on the M_yor and C-u.oil. Be spoke vigorously a.-in-tt the adoption of the scheme. Mr Cranweli seconded. Tse amendment was then ont as against tbe motion. 85 voting for It, 32 voted for the motion, ihe amendment consequently was declared "^Csnt.'Thomas then moved "That for the goo- health and well-being of the inhabitants of Parnell. a loan of £3,000 ba raised for the drolsage of this borough, ond that a rate of Sd In the fi be struck to meet the Interßßt and sinking fund." He gave a few details ef the soheme, saying there were four principal drains asd four outlets: noexoieto would be allowed pipes. He «aid that the burgesses were liable to a certain extent fat the deaths that recently ooourred in the borough. „ Mr Hood seconded, Mr Abbott, after a lengthy speeoh, moved, ".That in the opinion of this meeting; it is aot requisite to introduce a a> stem of drainage into the Borough of Parnellat the presentjunotnre. Mr Cranweli eeoonded. Mr Gulrd spoke In support of tho motion, saying that it was all very well lor Mr Abbott to oweot to the drainage bscauae he lived on the top of a hill, but he (the spe-ker) lived a« the bottom of a biU and got the 111 th ef those who lived on tho too. . . . Mr D.H.MoKenj-le and others Bpokein favour of the introduction of the dral-Oge system. The motion was oarrisd by 26 votes to 20. Tha customary compliment to tha Chairman terminated the prooes-lngs.
