Miscellaneous.

Biggar, member of Parliament for Cavan, Writes to the "Freeman's Journal," objecting to any member of the royal family, which is a foreign family to Ireland, opening the proposed Irish Industrial Ex hibition, and saying that Davitt or Parnell ought t» otiell the KxhiMtiCD, Archbishop Croke, oi CasUel, Rtiu Rev, Mr Cantwell have both subscribed to ami written energetically in favour of a national fund for the support of the imprisoned bus pects, Some remarkable prices were obtained at the Sunderland sale. A Latin Bible, being the first printed, with date 1462, realised §4,600; a copy sold in 1870 tetcbed £730; a fine Bible in vellum brought £ »5. There was a spirited competition for the superb collection ot Boccaccio's works, which reached far higher prices than was ex- Pected. _ ~, .... The "Freeman's Journal publishes a letter from Bishop McNulty of Meath, declaring if the Radical party does not compel Gladstone to reverse his policy and release the imprisoned " suspects," he must decide to renounce Irish support. The next general election, he says, will show the power of the recently completed Irish organisation. The experiment of the Marquis of London derry in entering into the retail coal trade of Lendon has been made, in the tew weeks of its trial, wonderfully successful. So great has been the demand for coals sup plied without the aid of a middle-man that the Marquis's agents have had to engage other steamers than his own to carry the coal demanded. It is by no means Ira possible that the sea, borne coal trade will be largely changed by the success of this experiment.

ALLEGED MURDER.

AN 01 HER NATIVE ARKESTED.

The native, Makairi to Papa, who was ar rested on the charge of murdering a native at Oxford, Waikato, on Boxing Day, was brought up at the Supreme Court today, bat owing to an informality referred to in our report, the prosecution was quashed. The prisoner was re-arrested this afternoon, and brought before the Police Court, when Messrs F. A. Whltaker and Browning applied j:o have the case remanded to Cambrsdge. Mr Williamson opposed, and His Worship said he would hear the case in Auckland if the Crown Prosecutor would guarantee the expenses of all necessary witnesses. The case was adjourned till tomorrow, iv order thatMrWilliaoason might have time to consult the Government. Another native named Peina te Kere, who was said to have taken part in the affray, has been arrested at the instance of prisoner's friends. He was brought up at the Court this afternoon, when Messrs Sheehan and Browning, who appeared for the prosecution, asked to have the caso remanded to Cambridge, Mr Brassey, for the defence, objected, and it was eventually allewed to stand over with the other till to-morrow. The Crown Prosecutor has, we believe, declined to undertake the prosecution in the latter cases.

CORRSPOND ENCE.

CHURCH MATTERS.

(To the Editor.)

Sir,—Your kindness in opening your columns for a grievance when the " Herald " declined, lays those who are aggrieved under an obligation to you. It was very unfair to dignify the All Saints' Church business with a leading article, and refuse to insert an explanation from those who were aspersed; and it was childish to affect to have discovered on Monday that what had been treated ns of such im portance on Saturday was only a parochial affair,

Bat there is another point, sir,—what a pity purely private matters, bucu as church meetings, should be reported as if they were of public concern. They are of only little concern except to the members of the particular church, and if they want to kno% what goes on let them attend the church meeting.

There never was and is not a church which is not liable to give wrong impressions and do more harm than good by making public its private routine business. The Baptists, Wesleyans and Presbyterians now and then have sensational scenes which they deplore for their cause and effect, but tiny keep them out ot print because they concern only their members; but Anglicans make them public.

Now, since the apostles bickered and strove about who should be the greatest, all public accounts of their own piivate meet ings have injured the cause of true religion, and I think that the Church authorities should exercise a wiser discretion as to what it were edifying that the world should know.

A Churciiman,

THE NEW MASTER OF THE AUCK LAND GRAMMAR SCHOOL.

(To the Editor.)

Sir, —It may be of considerable interest to parents sending their children to the Gram mar School, and to the authorities, to know from outside testimony that a wise choice has been made in the selection of a new Master, The mail of to-day brought me a letter from a nephew of mine who, up to the present time has been a pupil in the Manchester Grammar School, and as it will tell its own talo I make an extract :— "A former master of mine, Mr Bourne, M.A., from the Manchester Grammar School, has had an appointment to the Headmastership of a school in Auckland, and sailed last Thursday. My object in writing is to ask you, if you happen to have any interest in it, to give him what support you can. He is a capital master. I got on better with him than with any one else at the Grammar School, as he takes great pains with the boys. I saw him re ceive his M.A. degree in Oxford on Thurs* day, and he was to embark at Plymouth that evening. He had already bad a B.A. for several year*, and merely took a formal M.A,, as I suppose it will give him a better status, I did just tell him on Thursday I had an uncle in Auckland, but nothing more, as I was only able to see him for a minute." My nephew, who is 18 years of age, hag good reason to speak well of his master, as under his guidance has made very considerable progress. In 1880 he was gold medallist in his school, being the youngest boy ever achieving that distinc tion, and daring last year was Captain. His business at Oxford, where he saw his master take his degree, he shall explain in his own language, as the extract from his letter bears on another point of interest, viz., " The position the school has attained in other studies than classics." "My own business in Oxford was an examination for some scholarships at Balliol College, and I am glad to be able to tell you that they have awarded me one, so that I can now go into residence there. The scholarship is worth £80 for five years. Our school alto got the only science scholarship awarded at the same examination, and which we have now won three years consecutively," This scholarship he has won, and of which he speaks so modestly, my brother infoims me he came out first, and as it is considered the "blue ribbon" of the schools, he may fairly be considered the first boy of his year in all England. Mr Bourne will be made aware for the first time when he arrives here o! this distinction hia late Bchool earned. May it be tho presage of what under his direction the Auckland Grammar School will Boon attain.—l am, &c ,

DEATH IN THE CUP.

(To the Editor.)

Sir,—Yesterday evening a little girl went to a neighbour's house in Edinburgh street, Newton, and asked if Louisa could get out to play a little. "My dear child," replied the sorrowing mother, " Louisa will never play with you any more, as she died just a few minutes ago." The girl was heartbroken at the sudden death of her Elaymate, as sho had been romping with er jaat a few days previously. However, fever and death are never long absent from Kdinburgh-street, as well ns the next one to it, Gundry-strect. Surely there is some good reason for so many cases of fever in these two streets. Is it the open drainage, or is it bad water? It is said that at one time the night soil was deposited in that locality. If true, that of itself would be sufficient reason for so much fever. People cannot be too care ful in avoiding stinking drains or impure ■water. At the top of the next street, parallel with Edinburgh-street, water closets are daily running into the gutter, ouch practices should by no means he »»<wed, and the appalling number of fever caees that have been in the localities re- V«n °oßetionsl y demand investigation,—

COFFEE PALACE COMPANY.

MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS,

The first meeting of shareholders of the Auckland Coffee Palace Co. (Limited) was held this afternoon in the large room of the Insurance Buildings, Mr J. Newhlan (Chairman of Directors) presiding. About 30 shareholders were present* The Chairman explained that the meet ing had been called simply in order to com ply with the law which governed such corporate bodies. Only six months had elapsed since the Company was formed, and the business, therefore) was simply of a formal nature. But the directors had prepared an interim report, which the Secretary would read. The Secretary then read out the follow ing' report s— i

11 You are called together on this occasion in compliance with the articles of associa tion requiring the first meeting to be within six months of the formation of the com pany. Your directors have to report that they acquired the site at the bottom of Queen-street—the whole of three allot ments. They employed a first-class archi tect to draw up conditions and act as as sessor tor competitive designs for a building to cost about £10)000. The architects of Auckland, considering the terms too exact ing, declined to send in any designs. The directors then seriously considered what course to take, when Mr Stevenson, their assessor, tame forward and offered to pre* pare a set of plans embodying what, he con sidered, ought to be attempted on euch a splendid site. The directors en trusted the work to him. impressing on him to keep the cost, if possible, with in a sum of £12,000. After much careful and anxious consultation, a set of pinna were produced, which, for completeness of arrangement and beauty ot design, are all that can be desired. Tenders were invited for these, and the directors are sorry to re port that they to far exceed in amount the sum they contemplated, that they deter mined at once to lay the matter before the shareholders. During the period they were being tendered for, Mr Stevenson died, and they have thus been deprived of the services of a gentleman ot considerable ability in his profession at a most critical period of the undertaking. The directors have since appointed Messrs R, Reals and Son, who have undertaken to take up the plans of Mr Stevenson and carry them out. The prolonged absence of the Rev. S. W. Baker, from New Zealand rendered his seat on the Board according to the articles of association vacant. The directors then exercised their powers by electing Mr Henry Brett as a director to supply the vacancy. The directors who retire at this meeting, after a ballot taken, are Mr Joseph Newman and Mr Henry Brett, and being eligible, offer themselves for re-election. Mr John Waymouth also retires as auditor, and is eligible for re election. -Joseph Newman, Chairman.1'

Receipts :—Deposits on 7,806 shares at Is each, £300 6s; allotment on 6,913 t-hares at 2s each, £691 6s; call of 2s 6d on 4,331 shares, £841 7s 6d { amount borrowed at call, £500; advanced against shares, £76 2s 6d; due on mortgage, £500; Bank of New Zealand, £871 Is lOd; amount received for rents, £39 10s Bd. Total: £3,611 14s 6d. Expenditure :— Preliminary expenses of forming Com pany, £74 5s 5 leasehold property, £3,142 5s 3d; stationery account, £10 3s; architect's fees, £50; interest account, £46 6s 3d ; rent account, £283 15s; petty cash, £5. Total, £3,611 14s 6d.

Mr Newman, in moving tbe adoption of the report, stated the steps which the di rectors had taken for the acquisition of a site. Tbe purchase was such a good one that even were the Coffee Palace never erected it would email no loss to the shareholders. But he anticipated no such failure of their project. Since the Company was floated there had been a rise to the extent of 20 per cent, in wages and material,which had presented an unioreseen difficulty, and the death of Mr Stevenson had delayed them. They felt that £20,000 was too largo a sum to sink in the building,and they therefore sought the advice of the shareholders, but their confi dence in the ultimate success of the venture had not abated one jot. They should pro ceed steadily with it, and they would never have reason to repent their enter prise. Besides, such a building as they proposed erecting was a cogent necessity, and the institution would meet a clamant want. Immigrants and tourists expected such accommodation as the Coffee Palace was designed to supply, and the absence of it actually discouraged people from coming up here. It was a business concern ai well as a philanthropic echeme. The directors were convinced that if a suitable building were put up, the PaJace would assuredly prove a monetary success. They proposed to reduce the edifice by cutting off the left wing and the alteration of the Queen-street frontage. This would bring down the expected out lay to £13,000 or £14,000. Mr F. Larkins seconded the motion, after having been assured by the Chairman that £20,000 was not to be spent on the building, hut £14,000 upon the building and £6,000 in its furnishing. Mr Graves Aickin mentioned that the directors had no desire to see the capital in creased. . In answer to a shareholder, the Chair man said that about 10,000 shares had already been applied for. The motion was carried nem cod. On the motion of Mr G. Aickin, seconded by Mr Thos. Morrin, the retiring directors, Messrs Brett and .Newman, were re-elected.

Mr Geo. Fraser was appointed auditor. Mr Kcals then exhibited the original plans and indicated the proposed reductions. The Rev, S. W. Baker spoke in favour of the Mansard roof being done away with in favour of a plain roof, and of the doing away also with the top course ot bedrooms, leaving the building one of three storeys, which would mean a reduced coßt of £3,000 or £4,000. He therefore proposed that tho directors should be empowered to borrow what money was required to carry out tho plans with the alterations he had in dicated. Mr Close seconded the proposition. Mr Pierce also spoke in support of tho abolition of the mansard root, and the limiting of the height of the building to three storeys. He suggested that the plans should be referred back to the directors to make a further report upon. (®Upon the suggestion of Mr Brett, the Eev. S. W. Baker agreed to withdraw his proposition in favour of Mr Pierco's sug. eestion. , , „ Mr Geo. Hcmus then moved, and Mr Tho». Bubble (seconded, that the meeting should be adjourned till this day week, and that Mr Baker and Mr Pierce should bo asKed to consult with the directors in the meantime as to the report that should be prepared. , This proposition was earned, and the meeting then dissolved,

Sweet Sustenance. The superior nourishing properties of malted food, as reoommended by the great Liebig, is one of those faota that cannot be disputed. AICKIN'S INFANT FOOD is a local article FRESHLY PREPARED -with great care, according to the rocipo of Baron Liebig, from the best malted barley and wheat. The splendidly healthy and well-grown children reared on this food in Auckland have proved to a demonstration that flesh-forming and bone-making elements exist largely In this delicious nutriment. The undoubted advantage of having FRESH AND RKLIABLK article at a moderate cost must add con siderably to the large sale this excellent food has already commanded. ALL MOTHERS SHOULD GIVE IT A TRIAL.
