CATTLE STEALING. - The charge of stealing a heifer belonging to Walter Chitty, which was preferred against Groves Vowles, lasted from two o'clock until nearly five yesterday afternoon. Tne defeuce was that the prisoner had taken the animal believing it to be one that he had purchased from a man named Coleman, and that there h id: been no concealment or lilonious intent on hia part.-The jury, s,fter a shoit conference, returned a verdict of "Not Guilty." ..

THIS DAY.

BlOAMY.—Kachel Volan, a stolid-looking woman, pleaded guilty to having, on the 18th February last, while knowing that her husband was living, manied one William Donlan. -She pleaded as an excuse that she was under the influence of drink at the time, and therefore quite unconscious of what she was doing. - William Donlan having being called, deposed that he had been cohabiting with the woman some time whan, on the 18th February, she suggested to him that they should go and get mamed. He replied " Very well; come along, and they at once went to the Registrar's office and had the knot tied. The prisoner was drunk at the time.-John Wayland, Registrar of births,deaths, and marriages for the Auckland district, deposed that he had married the last witness to the prisoner oa the' 18th Febru ary. Tho woman appeared to be slightly under the influence ot drink, but she was certainly conscious of all that she was doing,—Upon being challenged m the usual way, preparatory to sentence being pro nounced, tho prisoner said :-Your Honor —I was intoxicated at the time, and I did not know what I was doing, although the gentleman may have thought I did. I had been drinking weeks btfore that. I did not know what I had done, and when I was told of it the next day, I could scarcely believe it. I was regularly stupified with drink when the marriago took place, al thou^n Mr Wayland may not have noticed it upon mo.-Sentence was deferred until the other bigamy case has been heard. .AUiKQED Cattle-stealing.— Groves Vowles was arraigned upon an indictment, charging him with having on the 7th November driven off and taken away an ox bolon«ing to Isaac Coates. A second coffut charges him with haviog driven oil mid taken away a calf belonging to the same person,—The prisoner, who was de fended by Mr E.Cook, pleaded not guilty.- Isanc Coatcs, contractor and fanner, resid ing at Kirikiriroa, deposed as to missing the ox and calf mentioned in the indict ment, and subsequently finding them in tho possession of a man named Hinton, who had bought them from another man named Walter Cook, who in his turn had got them from Vowle3. The latter alleged that he had "bought them from a man named Coleman, who at least believed them to be thoso he had bought from Coleman. "Walter, Cook, settler, living on the Piako Road, near Hamilton, deposed that he bought the ox (a white steer) and calf from the prisoner at the Ohaupo sale on the Bth of November. Ho took them to H.nton's, and left them there, Hioton subsequently buying them He had not settled up with the prisoner, having told him that he would not pay until by the issue of the present cases ho saw whether tho cattle had been rightfully sold to him or not The case closed at 12.45, and the Court then adjourned for luncheon, till 1.45.— On resuming, Mr Hcsketh addressed the iurv for the defence. He finished speak in" at 2.4o.—His Honor then summed up. In" doing so, he expressed regret thaf, by an unfortunate inadvertence, some jarors, who had served in respect of the previous case against tte prisoner, had been included in the jury empannelled to try the present one. This being so, how ever, he had to remind such jurors that it waa their sworn duty to weigh nothing but what was given in evidence—that they had simply to deal with what had been laid be fore them that day. Ttey were not to allow their minds to be prejudiced by impu tations against the prisoner, arising out of the fact that theie were a number of other charges against him, and neither were they to be swayed or influenced by the knowledge that the prisoner had been acquitted of the charge in the previous case. He knew that all this involved a great mental effort, and it was not fgk that a jury should be placed in the posiißh of making it. Still, it had to be done. His Honor then went on to revise the evidence, shewing as he did so, that the defence rested upon the theory of a pur chase having been made from Coleman by the prisoner, for which there was no direct tsvidencc, (Left Sitting.)

BOARD OF EDUCATION.

A special meeting of this Board was beld at 11 o'clock to-day. There were present: Mr J. M. Clark (in the cbair), Messrs W. P. Moat, Prime, Luke, F. J. Moss, Dar gaville, Goldie, Laishley,

Election of Chatrman.—The chairman proposed that Mr W. P. Moat be elected chairman of the Board, and in doing so, referred to Mr Moat's lengthy connection with the Board, and pointed out that he had plenty of leisure, which would enable him to attend thoroughly to the duties of chair man. He (Mr Clark) had not been able to give so much time latterly as he could have wished to the work of the Board. —Mr Luke seconded. He thought they could not get a more suitable chair man. He had in the past devoted a great portion of his time to the work of the Board.—Mr Laishley proposed that the chairman be elected for one year only. He did so because he considered the election oi the chairman iov three years was contrary to the spirit ot the Education Act, and was also contrary to common sense. He showed that the constitution of the Board altered every year, and it was unfair not to give the new members a voice in the appointment of the chairman. In moving the resolution he had two or three remarks to make. He had the highest respect for Mr Clark, and these remark? would not be interpreted as reflecting on him. But in consequence of the very reason btated by Mr Clark in proposing Mr Moat, it must be apparent that for same time past the business of the Board had fallen into the hands of the officials—the secretary and thei napec tor. There had been much dissatisfaction outside. —Mr Da ga ville rose to a point of order. He said it was unbecoming on the part of Mr Laishley to animadvert on the chairmau and secretary.—MrLaihhley continued: It gave him great pleasure to support Mr M.-at, as that gentleman had the leisure to see that tho aduiinis'raiiou of tho affairs of the Board wai c:i ri-d on in an effective way. It was oat of the late chairman's power to give that time and attention, and a general feeling had arisen that tho ad ministration was being worked by tho officials, and mt by the chairman.—Mr Clark thought that Mr Laishley, before entering into the manner in which the officials discharged their duties, should have tabled a notice. It was scarcely fair to bring it in by a side-wind.—Mr Darga villo thought the Board would be acting more within th) compass of iti powers, by appointing the chairman for one year. Be seconded the amendment.— Vr Lnishley said there could be no doubt but that the chairmanship'had drifted into a three years' appointment. With the permission of the seconder, Mr Dargavllle, he would withdraw his amendment and move the following instead—" That the chairman be elected for one year on'y, and that Mr Moat bo elected chairman for the ensning year."—Mr L'argaville accepted the altera tion subject to the addition of the word "hereaf'er" after the words "chairman be " so that the proposal would not seem as meant to apply to Mr Moat—Mr Clark then withdrew hU nvotion, and Mr Laiehley agreed to divide hia motion into two parts. When carried it read as follows;—" That the appointment of chairman, hereafter, be for one year only, such election to take place on the first meeting in the month of April." (The time otthe election was fixed on tho suggestion of Mr Luke).—Mr Clark thsn moved the appointment of Mr Moat as Chairman, which was carried unani mously.—Mr Vargavillo, in moving a vote of thanks to Mr Clark for his services as chairman for nearly three years, said the position of chairman to the Board was by no means an enviable one. Mr Clark had done what he cousidcred to be his duty, without paying attention to popular preju dice, or popular clamour. He referred to the fact that there had not been the slightest trace ot unpleasantness in the Board under Mr Clark's regime.—Mr Moat (who had taken the chair after the carrying of the lasi resolution) in returning thanks for his elec tion, said he hoped t > give the Board some amount of satisfaction in the position, al though that would be a difficult matter, considering the high abilities of his predecessors since the introduction of the education system. He fully endorsed what Mr Dargavillfe had said about Mr Clark, than whom no one had done more to further tbe interests of education in this province. Be had much pleasure in second ing the motion.—The resolution was put and carried without dissent.—Mr Clark, in returning thanks, said it had been to him a labour of love, as he was a believer in tho present education system, and he believed it would do an immense amount of good in our adopted country. Election of Executive Committee. The next business was the election of an executive committee, to cousfot of four members and the chairman.-Mr Moes spoke against the constitution of the com mittee, saying tbat the other four members of the Board had nothing more to do than ratify the decisions of the committee, He felt himself a kind of extra hand.— Mr Dargaville said that tbe duties of the committee were of a deliberative character. They posted themselves up in the business to come before the Board, and wei c pre pared with definite proposals.—Mr Moss said he often felt that it was no nse coming to the Board's meetings The constitution of tbe Executive committee precluded difcussion on individual points, — Mr GoUli-3 suggested tha abolition of the Executive Committee, and that the Board should meet weekly. It was not right, an was now the case, that the letters received should not be read before the Board.—Mr laishley said it had struck him, as illustrating the defective organisa tion of the Board, that 190 letters had been read at one meeting. He moved, " That the Executive Committee consist of the Chairman and two members, and that their duties be now defined." The existence of an Executive Committee of five members created on imperium in imperio, and made the other members mere cyphers.—Mr Moss thought there should be no executive— that the Chairman should have all the power and all the responsibility. It ap peared to be presumption on the part of the Board to dispute the dictum of the executive. He seconded Mr Laishley's motion. —Mr Clark proposed that " The committee consist of tnree members with th? chaiiraan."—Mr Prime seconded the amendment, which was put to tbe meeting and lost.—Mr Goldle moved a further amendment to the effect that the committee be abolished, and that a weekly Board meeting beheld — The chair man expressed himself as opposed to weekly meetings. The fo-»er meetings they had the better, as it laft less time for nrrelling amongst themselves. —Mr <hley's proposition was eventually carried. —Mr Laishley then moved, " That two of the Executive Committee form a quorum, and they have power to see that all resolutions of the Board are carried out, and have power to act in all emergen cies and to examine correspondence and ac counts, and that it be their duty to report from time to time to this Board on any matter which in their opinion should be specially dealt with."—Carried.—The Chairman, with Messrs Luke and Prime, were then appointed to form the Executive Committee for the ensuing year. Grammar School Governor. —Mr Dar eavitl.e was unanimously elected a governor of the Auckland College and Grammar Sch6oL Inihaskmg the Board, Mr Dar aaville said he accepted the appointment as a token of their approval ot his action in the matter of the proposed boarding estab lishment. , . This terminated the business.
