UNION COMPANY'S NEW STEAMERS.

(BY TELEGRAPH, —OWN CORBESPONDBNT.)

DUNEDIN, this day. THE Union Steamship Company have on thoir way out or under construction ten new vessels, five of which are intended for the intercolonial and coastal trade. They aro all of the same dimensions, viz., 285 feot in length, 36 foet in width, and 25 <feet iv depth, or a trifle larger than i_o Rotoranhana. The first .of them-the Manipouri —is now duo at Melbourne, and is to be followed by the Wnirarapa, Haouroto, Waitara, and Tarawcra. The Manipouri will replace tho Albion, and the Wairarapa the Rotorua, wbich is to^be em "ployed exclusively on tbo coast.' -he Waitara and Tarawera replace the Ringa rooma and Arawata, which are to bo utilised as extra boats during summer,and as reliev ing boats in winter. The Haouroto, wbich has a carrying capacity of 2000 tons, is to be employed in the Sydney trade, and Jtho smaller boats are to be used on tbe coast for general cargo purposes. One of the new steamers will bo called an express boat, and she will bo employed on the run from Lyt telton to Wellington.Tarnnakito Onehunga, and back, thus iorming a round trip. She is of smaller size than the Hawea, will steam fifteen knots, have accommodation for 100 saloon passengers, and is expected to make the trip each way in 3-1 hours steaming. Tho Hero at once replaces the Taiaroa in the Fiji trade, for which a special steamer is being built.

THE OPERA.—"PATIENCE."

Williamson's Royal Opera Company at tracted another large and fashionable audience on Saturday evening, on the occa sion of the fifth presentation here of the aesthetic opera "Patience." The opening scene, introducing "the twenty love-sick maidens," was rapturously received by tho audience, and mado a favourable impression, which was well maintained throughout the whole opera. The very oppropriato music was charmingly tendered, while the several melodious airs •occurring in progress of the piece were sung in a manner which cosld not prove other tban acceptable to the most critical listener. The fino scenery, pretty faces, and elegant 'costumes of the lady performers, set off by admirably conceived attitude, c/liere items in themselves woll worthy of ad- Tfßiration, while the dragoons, "all fleshly men of full habit," also presented an effec tive appearance. Signor Riccardi, is tbe Colonel, received tho first ovation at con-' elusion of the song "When first I put put the uniform on," after which the dragoons departed angrily, leaving the audience in the gayest of humours, and in tho proper mood to appre-. . date Bunthorno's recitative and song

immediaUly following, the result being tbat the fleshly poet waa compelled|to again recite the way to ehloe in the high aesthetic I line. The entry of Patience wns a sign for ronewed applause, nnd the dialogue between her and Bunthorno apparently led to in creased interest. The declaration of tbe poet, that he would not pnbliah his own composition, entitlod, " Heart Foam," created much laughter, while Patience's innocence regarding "lovo," and hew such could come from anyone bnt a relation, was very nicely displayed. The opera went on thus gaily, the applause being frequent and genuine until the first act drop. The discovery of Jane in the opening of tho second part called for loud applause, whioh waa cheerfully contributed. As she left tho stage, sighing because of the probable trouble which might arise, because, as she .ung, " still more corpalent groff I in the coming by and . by," she was presented with several floral tributes from the dress drcle. Grosvenor, followed by the maidens ;u their "all consuming rays," was a very ioveablo presentation. Ho was rewarded with a recall, and for tho second time that evening told the love-sick ones of the magnet and the churn. Patience, in tbe ballad''Love is a plaintive song," proved Intensely pathetic, and had to take her sor rowful departuro onco oftener than arranged by the composer. Again, in the duet be tween Bunthorno and Jane, the audience was worked to a pitch of enthusiasm, and several other bouquets were grace fully forwarded at the conclusion of the selection. The duet was specially appre ciated, as shown by two consecutive recalls, while thence until the curtain' dropped, the greatest attention was displayed by tbe audience. '' Patience " will again be pre sented this evening, and, judging from public manifestation of appreciation, for many subsequent nights.

PARLIAMENTARY.

[Fbom our Spkciai, Rei.o_.te..]

WELLINGTON, this day. Rj-FERR'tNa to Sir George Grey's speech in tho Honse on Friday night, the "Post" says : " The talk of the lobbies to-day is Sir George Grey's strong speech of last night in favour of the present Government's , native policy. The universal question is : ' V. hat docs it portend ?' and to this con.' nundrum nobody seems prepared with an answer," Arrival of the Stella. j The Stella made its fastest run—being ' only' sixteen hours between Taranaki and j Wellington wharf, averaging 10 miles per hour. Judges Fenton and Munro landed at NeW Plymouth, to bold the Mokau Lands Court. The court will be beld at Waitara, no building being available at Mokau. It is not known positively whether Te Wetero will appear, but most probably he will. Sir Wm. Fox, a passenger from Auck land, also landed at Taranaki. jttdae Ma'cdonald. Mr Macdonald, of Auckland, District Judge, is still hard at work on the Judica ture Bill, the drafting of which was entrusted to him by tho Judges composing the Judicature Commission. The bill will provide for a complete alteration of thu judicialsystem of the colony,making radical changes in the local courts. The bill is now nearly out of tho printers' hands, and will be brought down to tho House directly. Chairmanship of Committees. The " New Zealand Times' states on authority to day that the Government havo no intentionof withdrawing Mr Hurst's cahdi daturc for the chairmanship of committees. Notwithstanding the emphatic denial of tho "Now Zealand Times" thiß .horning, I have reason to belieVe that Mr Hurst will be withdrawn as a candidate! for the Chair manship of Committees; Mr DeLautour's namo Is freely mentioned now as a probable Candidate. A rlimour is afloat that Mr Hurst will himself withdraw on being proposed by the Government. The "Tiraos" also says Sir Goorpc Grey's speech supportiog Mr Bryce iv bis native policy will havo the moat important influence upon tho entire current of tbo present session of Parliament. It is evi dently the intention of Ministerialists to make the utmost of such au unqualified ap. proval, coming from tho quarter where Ministerial measures usually rccoivo very rough hoaidliug.

THE LATEST.

Mr Hurst's chance of olection is depen. dent .a two or three votes, and opinion is divided whether tho Government will be able to carry him through, hut most authori ties on the subject declare his defeat inevitable, Negotiations wore opened up with the object ol getting the Opposition to withdraw Thompson, upon the Govern ment withdrawing Hurst, nnd both nominating J. Evans Brown, ot Canter bury. Theso, however, fell through, Macandrew feeling confident of defeating the Government. He had secured a largo number ot promises on Thompson before his arrival in Wellington, The Government therefore determined to go on with Hurst's candidature, a withdrawal being a virtual dof .nt with probably worse rc.ults on their party tban would attend an actual defeat iv the House, They are still hopeful of success. The Seat of Government, ■ The proposal to remove the seat of Government trom Wellington to Christ church has assumed definite aad serious form, ifstimates have been mado of the cost requisite for the buildings at Christ church, and it is believed if tho loan is floated, a determined effort will be made to secure appropriation. Failing that, a motioutohold the next session of Parliament thero without removing tho Government oilices will undoubtedly be tabled. Otago and Canterbury members alone, if united, are able to carry the proposal which is urged by many of them because they would be able to visit tbeir homes every week during sessions. What attitude the Auck land Members will take towards the scheme is not yet apparent, but tho move ment in its present shape appears to be part of a scheme to concentrate all power and authority in tbe South island, while Macandrew probably regards it as a step towards separation. Wellington people are now seriously alarmed, and not without good cause, because a collapse then following tho withdrawal of the central Go vernment expenditure would bo most disastrous to all landed and business in terests. Auckland Harbour Bill, The Auckland Harbour Beard Empower ing Bill will bo taken into consideration by the Local Bill Committee on Wednesday next.

VERY LATEST.

The Governmont are.in an undoubted minority of two.or three on the question of Chairmanship of Committees, owing co tho Otago Ministerialists having pledged them selves to vote for Thompson. There is just a chance that by some members absenting themselves a tic may be seenred, but tho defeat of Hurst is most probable. It is not made a Ministerial question, otherwise tho Government whips declare they could carry tbe election easily. Tho adoption of Hurst's candiaature Is shrewdly attributed to the advocacy of another prominent Auckland member, who was associated with the member for Waitemata on a memorable occasion. The original intention of the Cabinet wis to have accepted Thompson, bnt being dis suaded trom tbat course, tho whips thought Hurst's chances were better tban Hamlin's. In this they were utterly mistaken, tho general opinion being that if Hamlin bad been put forward in the beginning, and stuck to, he would have got in easily.

The Volunteer and Military Land Scrip Commission which eat at Auckland will conclude its labours this week. It has investigated over fifteen hundred claims, of which four per cent have been allowed, and those will receive about ten per cent of what tbey claim. Grants will be mado in scrip, exercisable at public land sales Tbe departure of IL M.S. Kelson, wbich was expected to-morrow, has been delayed three weeks. This probably means that Sir A. Gordon is not going so soon as he intended.

FOOTBALL.

New Zjaland t. The World

The above match, wbich has hitherto been looked upon as almost a certainty for tbe No. 3 team, was played on the Domain cricket ground on Saturday afternoon, and resulted, contrary to all expectations, in The World winning by one try—2 points to nil. Tho game was one of the beat, and certainly tho fasteat game ever witnessed in Auckland —scrimmages, being almost entirely dispensed with, thereby giving back players plenty of work. The play of Arneil, Ryan, O'Connor, Stewart, and Coleman, for the World (the three latter showing great improvement on laat season) was really excellent; and Henderson, Carter, Davy, and Macky, for New Zea land, showed good form, and played gamely throughout. The third match eventuates on July Ist, when tbe result may be reversed. The club matchoi begin next Saturday, namely, Ponsonby v. Auck land, on the Domain Cricket Ground; and, Grafton v. North Shore, on the North Shore Ground, and they will, no doubt, be closely contested.

At the Waikomiti licensing polling on Fridayit was decided to increase publicans, licenses. The mail steamer City of Sydney from San Francisco had not been signalled up to a late hour this afternoon. She may now be hourly expected. A large barque of abont 1100 or 1200 tons, apparently bound for this port, was sighted by the master of the Gazelle to the westward of tho Tbreo KiDgs about a week ago. Tho following notice of motion bas been lodged at the City Council Chambers by Cr Crowther :—"That the Surveyor be instructed to give an estimate of the cost of levelling and asphalting the footpath from tbe Railway Station to the junction of I'ort and Customhouae-str-ots." Tbi poll of Arch Hill ratepayers on the licensing question has gone against the in crease of lie; nses of any description. The numbers were : Against increase of publi cans1 licenses, 60; for, 19. Against New Zealand wine licensee, 58; for 14. Against accommodation houses, 57 j for 15. Against jjottle licenses, 57; for 13,

THE SCHOOLS OF AUCK LAND.

We are in receipt of an early copy of tho i report of Mr X, J. Sullivan on the State ' I schools of this Provincial district for the i year ended 31st December last.

Referring to the question of scholarships the inspector says : In connection with the question of the age of pupils, comes the question of the ago of candidates for scholarships. The present regulation on tbis < point is, tbat candidate, for district scholarships; must not be Ices than twelve, nor more than seventeen years of age. I do not attach much weight to the objection that it is not fair to the younger can didates to make them contend at equal weights, so to speak, with the older ones. Scholarships and the like are not intended for the benefit of individual.. The coil-try) with an enlightened selfish uesi, enables them to be founded, in order that she may select for further education those most likely to do the State some ser vice. Of course it is not possible to con trive a perfect machinery for this end, Tbat adopted by the Auckland Board has, in my view, acted well. I was asked before the Koyal Commission on Education ln 1879, as to whether it might not be advan tageous to make a distinction between boys uuder sixteen and boys under fourteen. My answer was : "I donbt it very much. If all boys were equal in intellect and had tho same surroundings and asso ciations, a distinction might be made, As things must be, ago is but one .lenient." Another objection is that lt is found very inconvenient in tho secondary - schools to have boys of fifteen beginning I classics and mathematics, and further that , tho boys themselves are placed at a great > disadvantage by beginning late. Our ox- , pcrience in Auckland does not be_P out this last objection. It is well-known that the district scholarship boys have come well to j the front at tho Grammar School, and tbat , many of them bave gained open scholar- , sbips. I am inclined to think tbat tho '. first-named objection bas bern over- , rated, as what I have .just stated ', will, to somo extent, bear out. To ; return to tho last objection, I am awaro , tbat a good deal may he said iv favour of . the idea tbat boys lor Secondary Schools • should he caught young. lam not pre- • pared to admit that this is to be looked on j as indisputable; if, howevor, we admit its , truth in a general way, it by no meahs foi- , lows that it Is justifiable lorn ake very young . boys fight their way through competitive ( examination into these schaols. I really . cannot think that it is required at this < time of day to show how deadly such a process must be on children of say eleven, ' Everyone should be able to figure tbat to himself. Unfortunately we arc not ltft to . j__y on theory alone in this matter. We . have a wido experience, too, to nam and I to guide. To come to a particular expert- . encc. A gentleman, whose recent lamented ' death causes a serious loss to Education ia ( this colony, described to me tbo sort of i young boys who won scholarships in the . district with which ho was connected. Small, sharp, precocious boys, Nvith bad physical development; no weight of brain, < and no fnture in them. He was of opinion, and I entirely agreo with ( him, that public money spent in - turning out such au article ( is worse than lost. It must be borne in mind that the mischief done by early com petition is not confied tt tbe unfortunate competitors, the viru. infects the school aud . the district. Under what 1 may call the j comparatively healthy system pursued hero, I am satisfied that as a rule tho moot pre raising boys have gained tho scholarships. , Some of tho best have gained them at fifteen, after trying for twe years bofore. I j myself agree with those who think that It . is no benefit to a boy to begin the study * of classics and mathematics before twelve, i However that may be I am con-1, vinced that it would be moat injurious ' to the publio primary school system to i permit competition for scholarships by , children uuder twelve. I do not see so ' much objection to reducing the upper limit ! of ages, say to boys under iiftcen. The vital point to be considered is the healthy and successful education of the great body of tho people. If the secondary schools cannot make their arrangements to contri- . bute to tbis end, some other mode of dis posing of the winners of scholarships must be devised. I fully rccogoisi the im portance of secondary and higher schools and the University in the structure of national education. That structure has its foundation in the primary school, and it behoves us to build] tbe foundation strong. , Another item of Interest in the report was a suggestion tbat no children nnder 7 years old should be admitted. In dealing with tho matter Mr O'Sullivan says:—The children would be very much benefitted. It will be seen in tbo education reports from the Southern districts of New Zealand whore the Standard system has Veen in operation for some years that tho averago age at which pupils pass tho first standard is about 9| years. Nothing but barm can come to children from being kept stewing iv schools for tho first two of these four years. To shut np a child in a school at five is to arrest his physical growth and his intellectual growth. Just at this time he mast requires freedom and fresh air. Just at this timo his observing powers are developing rapidly, nnd should havo free scope. The report contains many excellent suggestions, and is well worth careful study.

It Is gratify ing to those having friends interred to feel that this degrading practlco has boen largely cbroked by the respected sexton, Mr Walker, who capeololly ir on the alert on Sunday after iioo' a '0 see that those who resort to the above, conduct tnem.elvea ln a manner becoming the .urroundlnEE. But whilst tbo above named gentleman has spared no effort In exeoutlng the duties which fall to his lot, In showing the greatest consideration to all alike, and endeavouring to keep paths, Sco, in good order; yet lt would appear that hia efforts are to prove futile until another nulaanoe has been removed. I had occasion to pass from Grafton Road to Symonds-street early on tho morning of the 24'h inst-, and found tbe paths almost impaeßablo, a number ot cows having oome down bnt a ihort time bsforo.

TOWN HALL SITE.

(To the Editor.)

Sib,—When you say in your leading articlo of to-night, that the reserve at the foot of Grey- Btreet is the centre of the city, you moan geogra phically, o£ course It is not, and never can bo, the business centre. Tho junction of Victoria and Queen-streets is nearer to tho centre, and thero we have a site preferable in many ways to tho foot of Grey-street. I refer to tho eastern termination of Victoria-street East. Tho pre sent embankment would have to be put back, the cost of which would be trifling com pared to buying £8000 worth of land, as the earth would be purchased for tho railway reclamation. The building put on the level of Coburg-atreet. and facing to Queen .treat, would looa grand and imposing, while it would be in reach of evoryono, and yet beyond the Bound of rumbling vehicles. I do not know whether this site has been proposed before, or what difficulties there may be In the way, but think it worthy of the consideration of our City Fathers.—l am, &c, A Citizen. Auckland, May 26th, 1882. (To the Editor.) SaC—l see by your paper that the question of a site for the Town Hall is, at last, receiving the attention of the City Counoil, and notwithstand ing the grave Importance of the subject, some are seeking to advance their private interests by suggesting sites that have absolutely not ono point to recommend them. In this matter, at all events, there should be no stinting and flint skinning, and it will be an everlasting Wot on Auckland if, without refer ence to cost, the vory best site is not chosen for an undertaking of this important character. Of those sites whioh, aa yet, have been under discussion, there cannot be a question, with

unprejudiced minds, that the. site at the junp tion of Grey and Queen-Streets is far the beat; but it may be, there aro bettor positions than th.t Inthefc.wn, ahd If ao.at whatever coat, the best one oURht unheaitatlngly to be secured for the munioipal buildings. If the position -.uovo-montioncd is chosen, of courae tho site muat be increased by taking in " The Artny and Navy" and other buildings; and sufficient ground must now be acquired for any enlarge ments or.additional buildings that may be re quired, consequent upon iho increase of this city, which ought to become the principal one in New Zealand. It is perfectly absurd to imagine, for one moment, that £20,000 will go half way towards providing tho city of Auck land with the accommodation required for all her officers, who, together with the library and other kindred institutions, should find a homi together; and, my experience tells me, that if the ground Is planned and laid out judiciously, there will be no difficulty In getting an ample return for tho capit.lre quired for tho undertaking; for where the Town Hall is, provided always it ia in the beat position, there will tho people be anxious to gather together, and shops, &c, will let at in creased rentß. Auckland, above all cities, can not afford to loso this chance of distinction for with all her advantages, and they are many, sho is far behind both Christchurch and Duno din in her buildings; some excuse maybe urged for Wellington's hage match boxes, on account of her liability to tho earth's vagaries, but Auckland has no excuse of this kind, and really ought to awako to tho position Nature has evidently designed hor to -LU.—Youm &c„ Veritas.

Wreck of a German Barque and Loss of Life.

By tho arrival of the Taiaroa to day, we have files to tho 30th inst. Tho "Times" gives the following additional particulars of the recent hurricane :—" By tho arrirnl of tho ketch Patience, from Tonga, fuller par. ticalara are to hand of the severe hurricane which has devastated a portion of that group. Captain Castles reports that tho hurricane occurred on tho 25th as previously noted, but that it was Va ran and not ToMgatabu which experienced its full violence. Tho barquo lost at the former port was the Don Guillemo, Captain Johanson, who, with all bis olficcis and six scamca, was drowned when tho vossel Went down. Fivo boys we.o saved. Tho wreck now lies in thirty fathoms of waters. The hur ricane was accompanied by a tidal wavo, fifteen feet high, which swept over the island, and did terrible damage. The samo Wave destroyed tne storehouses of Messrs McArthur and Co., ot Auckland, which, at the timo, contained over 300 tons of copra, awaiting shipment. All the houses of native and many of European construction, wero carried away, cocoanut trees wero snapped off like pipe stems, and tho island presents a scene of widespread desolation The John Wesley, Captain Lancaster, from Sydney, left Vavau for Habai with 25 pas scngeri, most of whom woro Europeans, about tiro hours beforo the hurricane began. »She had a, fearfully rough passage, and hud three of bor boats smashed to pieces at tho davits, but reachod her port without moro Berious damage, Tho hurricane is said to have been the worst ever experienced in tbat *r»up. Toigatabu escaped altogether, and Capt. Castles reports that neither at Wallis Island or Futuna was any uausual disturbance noticeable.

Tbe schooner Wairiki, from Auckland, arrived on tho 7th.

The achooner Threo Cheers, fourteen days out from Auckland via Tonga, arrived on the 7th May. The schoonor Coronet, from Auckland, arrived on Suaday last. After discharging her cargo, sho will proceed to tho island of Apimama, where she will bo delivered to the chief of that island, who has just com pleted the payment fer her in copra. Tho "Fiji Times" says :—««At Tongata. bou all the, churches bave been destroyed, 2,000 houses have been levelled, stores and copra house with contents (that happen to bo aear tho sea) have been completely swept away. A schooner has been carried inland, and a Gorman barque,. tho Cassalis (?), fonndored,"

The concert announced to be given at tho Public Hall, Mount Albert, on Thursday next, has been postponed until Friday, in consequence of the " May Queen" per formance being fixed for Thursday. Fruit figured largely amongst the cargo of the Taiaroa, which arrived from Lovuka to-day. She brought 1,578 bunches bananas, 91 cases pines, 20 bags cocoanuta, 11 casei frnit, 22 hides. _. bales cotton, 4 bags wool, . bundles skins, 225 bags maize, 19 bags peanuts. The presiding Justices at the Police Court to-day deserve credit for the manner in which they viewed the offences of assault and wanton destruction of property com mitted by certain " larrikins " against an unoffending Chinaman. The occurrence took place on .Queen's Birthday, when, without the slightest provocation, a number of boys attacked the Celestial, calling hira opprobrious names, pelting him with sionc.. and destroying a quanrity of vegetables in his gardeu. Though an attempt was made to prove an alibi in the case of some of the accused, the Bench found two of them guilty, tbo ringleader, O'Halloran, being sent to prison for the term of fourteen days, without the option of a fine, while another was fined 20s, with costs. The sosts in one case amount to £6 lis. The youths concerned will no doubt feel the sentence to be a very salutary lesson to them ; while it ought also to have a gocd effect in deterring other thoughtless and wild youths from breaking the law. The Justices, Me.srs Cosgrave and Maitelli, ex pressed regret that the first outbreak of larrikinism which had como beforo the_n should have been directed against a peace ful'and industrious class in the community; and we are certain their remarks will be concurred in by all peace-loving members of the community,
