MINING NEWS.

[FKOM THE "COROMAHDEL MAtt I']

IT is a matter for congratulation that this district U participating in the renewal of that prosperity which has demand on the Auckland mining world. The declaration of a dividend of 3a in the Prince Imperial at the Thames was succeeded by_a half crown dividend deciared in the Success, and though very few shares are held here, it is, nevertheless, a cause for satis faction that a local mine should at this period be' Come dividend paving, and there is every rcS,<on to bdpe that toe dividend declared by the Success is to be followed by many more, as the block of ground of 120 feet between the two levels is intact j the use is not yet through, and rich gold ha« been obtained in various ports showing the *un of gold to be of an gxteneive character. There has been much unfavourable criticism as to the way in which the progress of the work and discovery of the gold was made known (or not made known) to the general public. Whether any just cause of com plaint existed has yet to be proved, rrat one thing is certain, that Mr Reid, the mne manager, has done bis pjrt faithfully and efficiently, as far as the working of the mine is concerned. He had from the first ttudied the nature of the lode and the country it traversed, aud he is entitled to the credit of having dereloped this rich run of gold- The pwaent low level was earned through hard country a distance of over 400 feet, before the reef was intersected, and though only a comparatively small portion of it has been worked as yet, up wards of two thousand portnds' worth of gold has been obtained, and this has been the product of about half-a-dozen small parcels of specimens carried by the manager under his arm from the mine to the bank. One of these parcels weighing 781ba.. when treated at the bank gave 217 ounces of melted gold. We hope l>lr Keid will long continue his weekly trips irom the mine with the usual quantity of specimens in his little bag. . '< IONA.—O wing to a lot of mullock haviog got into the shaft some delay has been ex perienced in getticg the lift down to the bottom, but it was expected that all would be in wi iking order by the end of this week. Justin-Time.—The mansger has been wait>ngsome time for a pump ordered weeks ago from town, the non-anival of which has considerably retarded the progiess of affair?. Union Beach.- Several tenders were received and forwarded by the manager to the Board of Directors for the work of sink ing a winze from the bottom level. The result has not transpiied. Blue Pktbe.— The tributer cut the reef in .he Smithy or low level, and got a good show of loose gold from the first handful of stuff taken oat. KAPANOA.- Excsedingly rich atone was knocked out of Scotty's reef during thepast week. Bismarck.—The tributers started to stope from the winze, and the second shift broke out about 61bs. .of specimens and 201bs. of puked stone. Pkidk of Tokate a.—Kennedy andMac donald lodged 66 ounces retorted gold, the result of their crushing at the Curby battery. Hope.—The tributers are crushing a few tons of general dirt. Stafford and Party.—Sluicing opera tions in th« Matawai Creek were progress ing very satisfactorily up to the time of the last Hood, and a fair.start was made in washing; but the flood carried away the river bank just below the dam. Men ate now engaged erecting a permanent flume above the head race, which will be carried from the battery to the bend of the creek, a distance of about 180 feet. A new dam will then be built of bouldew and earth work, with the addition of a wooden chl vert which will les-en future danger from floods, When the fresh came this party had the last race sufficiently forward to get the bottom on to permanent wash, which, from appearanca was worth treating. Homeward Bound.— Work is being carried on as usual in this mine, hat it will be some time befoie regular stopiog can be started.

Daldy's Claim.—Operatioos have been re-commenced, aud a satisfactory show is reported on the stone coming out. Golden Butterfly.—Some very good stone has come to hand as work proceeded. MATAWAI. — Vaughan and Vizard are bagging stuff for a crushing at the new battery, which is ready for work, with the bcrdaos, which have yet to be pnt in posi tion.

Warrior.—bale is still prospecting with a fair show of gold. Little Nell.—The tributurs are going to utilise the new track at once, and are preparing for a oiushing of 50 tons. The road is just completed. Cakew's Application. — More slabs being required for sinkina the shaft sinking has ueen suspended while they are being procured from the bush. Advantage is being taken at the same time to provide timber for diiving when the shaft is deep enough. This claim j« likely to become a valuable property, being situated next the Just-in-Time and in direct line for Onion Beach reefs.

On the motion of MrNichol, it was agreed "That the pro* prietors and shareholders in the Hand of Friendship Licensed Holding present and represented do hereby form themselves into a compan vunder the Mining Coaipanies Act, 1872, with a capital of £15,000 in 15,000 shares ot £1 each, to be allotted iv 100 original shares."

V.M.C.A. - RECEPTION SOIREE.

A complimentary reception was given in the hall of the Young Men's Christian As sociation Rooms last night to the president of the iustitation (air F. Battley) on his re turn to Auckland trom a trip to England and Americ j. About 150 persons were pre sent. After the company had been regaled with tea, a meeting was held, over which Mr J. L. Wilson presided. The proceed ings having been opened with the usual devotional exercises, the chair man said they were met that night for the purpose of welcoming back the president of the association, and of hearing from him some account of similar societies in other parts of the world. Mr Battley was loved and respected by all, and he was sure they were all heartily glad to see him onca more in their midst. They had received many letters from him, which had beea perused with warm interest by a large number of readers. His personal narrative that evening would doubtless be listened to with no less avidity. fie (Mr Wilson) was glad to see representatives of so many denominations present. It was good to meet together and talk of brotherly love and union, but meet ings of this character were practical ex emplifications of tbe reality ot these senti ments, and they might, with advantage, be held more frequently. Every member of the association had a work to do, but he was convinced that to achieve true success, all efforts should be consecrated wholly to Christ. He felt daily more and more the need of this thorough consecration in all that was undertaken by Christiana, and especially in alt that was attempted by Christian Associations,

Mr Battley, on lisiog to speak, was greeted with applause. He said that in his presidency of the *oung Men's Coristiaa Association he resembled the comet which had recently appeared, Not that he consi dered himself a celestial "body of such ex traordinary brilliance, but that his course had beea juat as erratic, and people seemed to regard his appearance with interest. He was most happy to meet such a large num. her of his friends on his return to Auck i~' ,He had JU9t been Home, but although he had spent a most enjoyable tinio in KDgland he was glad once more to return to what he regarded as his real home, New Zealand. He bad ascer tained that during his absence the Auck land Young JVfcn's Christian Association had prospered. During his trip through Ameiioa he had paid particular attention to the associations there, and the first thing he noticed was that they did their work. They Becuied good tites, erected splendid buildings, and furnished and fitted them up in the most approved style. The i social element he found very strong 1 every effort being made to render the young men happy and comfortable ice association's building in New York was fitted up with a large number of bathrooms, and it_ had also an excellent gymnasium, for which no extra charge waa made. Ihe ladies were not neglected, for One Of the beat i-nnma in <(.» v,V;u. __-

to their use. Another feature in connection with the American societies Wa « the care they took in selecting general secretaries. Men of high cultu'e and neat attainments were found willing to devote themselves to the work, and they were iaken I in band and specially trained for the posi I tion, Then ihe association had separate organisations for work in different sDhero. cf labour. There were 800.000 railway - "' employdii In the United States, and there were 50 organisations to reach thin class the membership being confined to those connected with the railways. There were IS 500,000 Germans in the country, and there , were German branches to look after their welfare. There were 500,000 coloured men, 125,000 commercial travellers, and 60,010 college students, and for each of - these classes there were distinct orgaaisa. • tions whose sole duty it was to promote their welfare. There was a la'ga amount ■ of secular work done by the societies' - Classes for the study of French, German' ' writing, book-keeping, and phonography attracted large numbers of unconverted youog men, and brought them within the pale of Christian influence,: Missionary and evangelical v ot j^ • was also conducted in a systematic manner. The speaker then gaye various interestim? : de'ails of associations in Manchester • Leed?, London, Edinburgh, and Sail *S Fraficißco, and concluded by urging big' hearers to' devote themselyea more heartily to the work of the association.

Mr Larkin?, Mr and Mrs Phelps, and Mi l. Buddie also addressed the meeting which was at length closed by the BerTS! F. Mttcuicol pronouncing the benediction, •

JURIES VERSUS JUDGE.

(To the Editor.) Slßj Please give insertion to the subjoined ". opinion of Chief Justice E'le, 6ne of tlu.r^ ornaments of the English Bench, on the ;| relative merits of jurors and judges as « triers of issues of fact. I copy it from a3| Dublin paper of the 30th of September last. |I —Youis, &c, . • , During a discussion on the system of H trial by lury at the Social Science CongreH|a on.Friday week, Mr Hugh Browne readttb||| following opinion of judges given by Cbie||| Justice Erie:— l believ<that a] jary infill general, far more likely to come to a iigh||fi decision than a judge. The education of a 1 judge, so far as relates to deciding tacts, is I the education of a practising barrister im»||§ mersed ia a world of worlds and remove'ti}|| from acting on the commercial and agTi-,;| cultural facts which form the staple ofconv]|| test. Be is so accustomed to deny ; what he believes , true—to defendjß what he feels is wropg—to look||f for premise", not conclusions—that bo ■*. laces the sense of true and false—that is, . real and unreal. Then he knows netMoeS of the habits of thought, ot feeling, and'of || action of the middle and lower classes who I supply our litigants, witnesses, and'"; 4 prisoners,! and it is from barristers;tti«K| educated that judges are taken. Experience the judge certainly has, but ..:,theJj|| long experience often gives the judge ;,y prejudices which warp his judgment;^ In a case in which my client was a^s; field preacher the judge Bummed np I strongly agaimt me, and my client got ;. nothing. I afterwards found that thljjH judge had an almost insane hatred of-field.J|L' preachers. As for responsibility, a judge,^; being a permanent officer, especially a judgeg^ sitting alone, is more responsible to pufelifi ";^ opinion than any individual juryman wh<>;' is one of a body assembled only once; bat s] I believe that the feeling of moral respond^;; bility |!s much stronger in a jary- ■??,, man, to whom the situation is new, and, a whose attention is excited. Ibave.eeen;; dreadful carelessness in judges. Again, a-. judge is often under the influence of par ticular counsel; some he hates, tome be..;; likes, some he relies on, and some he tears. It is easy for a judge to be.imWtf, tial between plaintiff and defendant; it a difficult to be so between counsel tma caunsel. Even in civil cases, I prefer juries to judges. The indifference to real and unreal, to tight and wrong, wmofc' besets a barrister bred in the world p£ words rather than of facts, often follow! him to the Bench. Besides this, I havo known judges bred in the world of legal studieu who delighted in nothing so ranch is a strong decision. Now, a strong deci9ioa is a decision opposed to common sense ana common convenience. A great part of Uie law made by judges consists of strong deci sions ; and as one strong decision ia a m cedent for another a little stronger, the law at last, on some matters, becomes such a nuisance that equity interferes, or an Act 01 Parliament is passed to sweep the whole away." . ,

"THE ACCUSER OF THE BRETHREN."

(To the Editor.) Sib,—ln your last night's issue it wj» stated that Mr Thos. Spurgeon had thongß the floral cross question of sufficient impot-a tance to warrant him in denouncing utf| ".unholy alliance." It is now pretty nggl rally y known that the Bishop did not W| sent the cross at all, and hence the pitj■ ««$ this yonng preacher of peace and goodwill; should have abused his position and .bm*| sage to inflame an audience with arK founded charge. Mr Sporgeon would jot more gaod if. in the words of. St.' PM m would "Studyto be quiet and mind his oifß| business." The yonng gentleman is ratoer^ too ready-to accuse his fellow-Christian^ and even many of his own church are. grieved thereby.—l am, &c

To the Editor : Sir.—l think it a ««•'• pity that gentlemen should not be; B'lo?r^ to exchange the commonest civilities Wjfiijjl out somebody having a shot at them under ; ;, a " norn de pluffie." For instance, BusnoP Cowie sends our now Eoman Catnolw Bishop abonquet of flowers, which happenS»|| as it appears, to be in the form of a crosff, V| and this excites the indignation oj [l^ mM parties who don't seem to be aware tha^Wßi| are all the children of God, and so far as * have read, I don't see that the Everlasting God has forbidden ns to be courteous one.-i to another; in fact, I read that Hajii«|j bidden us to be so. Why don't these gentlemen sign their names, as I do &c, Wm. jBAKEE, Rocky Kook, JNcW North Eoad. • S -;S|

Acting upon the permission given him W the City Council,.the Chief Fojtomster ImJ had iron letter-receivers affixed to certain lamp-posts in the more outlying portions o». the city. They will prove of great coa venience to the public. .
