ADRESSES TO MEN AND WOMEN.

Yesterday afternoon Bishop Cowie delivered an excellent and instructive address to young women, in St. Sepul chre's school-room, Symonds- street, taking his text from St. Luke, chapter 10, being the account between Jesus and tho sisters, Mary and Martha, at Bethany. The dis course was specially interesting to young women, the Bishop showing the peculiar. ties of the sisters, and illustrating the .lXrences in their characters. Mary *S the contemplative side of the Christian woman, and Martha the active. Uoth desired to honour Christ when Ho ontered their humble home. Home! Young women could not be too careful to remember that their home was tho great sphero of their work for God Neglect of home by any young woman could never be justified, on any Chris tian principle, by activity abroad. Home was tho great sphere of young women's work, but there were cases, as they oil kiew, where a young woman was com pelled to spend a grcnt deal of her time away from home, in order to assist in sup porting the family. There was no higher Christian duty than that, ana when he said home was the proper sphere of a youug woman's duty, he did not cast the slightest reflection upon those who had to go out to work. In regard to religious life at homo, young women should bo careful to cherish the spirit of religion, not only for their own sakes, but because of their immense power for good, and their influence over young men In a home where the young women were without the fear of God there was very littlo chance of tho young men having any true religion in their hearts. The Bishop illustrated his theme by numerous examples from tbo lives and writings of noble women, and warned young women against becoming the slaves of fashion, and counselled them to study simplicity and modesty, which, he said, wore the great charms and attractions of young women. Away from home they should bo the salt of society, und should be careful to guard against improprieties in the conversation of their male triends. At the same hour the Kcv. A. Penny delivored an address to young men from the second epistle of Timothy, c. 2, v. 3, " Thou there fore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ," full of excellent advice to young men, and the same gentleman in the evening preached an instinctive sermon from Hebrews, c. 2, v. 17 and 18. To morrow (Suuday) evening, Mr Penny will preach at St. Sepulchre's on "Conquerors Through Christ," previously to leaving for the Islands by the Southern Cross.

THE LATE CAB ACCIDENT.

Coroner's inquest.

A CORONER'S enquiry was held at the Hospital to-day, into the circumstances at tending the death of Charles McLaughlin, who died on Thursday last, from the effects of a cab accident an the 22nd ultimo. Dr Goldsboro officiated as coroner, and Mr F. J. Clayton was chosen foreman. The contractors, Messrs Mason aud Archibald, were also present. After the jury had viewed the body, the following evidence was taken. F. r. Philson deposed that Charles Mc- Laughlin, aged 11 years, was brought to the District Hospital on Wednesday, March 22ud, at about 9 p.m., with divers injuries on the head and face, Baid to have been caused by the overturning of a cab on which he was riding. There was a lacerated wound four inches long, extending ob liquely downwards and outwards fiom tho roof of the nose to the lower part of the left cheek. Theleftcheek.bonewasfractured and detached. The left nasal bone, and much of orbital plate of the frontal bone, was comminuted so that on the removal of the loose frogments the jura mater covering the lower part of the left anterior lobe of tho brain was visible. A fracture of the frontal bone extended from the orbit up wards and inwards for several inches. There was alsom free bleeding from the right ear. The boy was in a very weak state from the shock, and Heeding, but was sensible and answered questions intelligibly. Ho said he had been thrown from the box of the cab amongst the horses' heels. The injuries must have been produced by violent colli sion with some hard body. His wounds were dressed, and for some days seemed to go on favourably, but in the course of a week symptoms of inflammation of the brain set in, convulsions ensued, and death took place on Thursday last about 1 p.m. The appearances after death corresponded with the above description. The fracture of the frontal bone was at least six inches long. There was no depression of the bone. The jura mater was extensively detached, and sloughy. The surface of the brain was uninjured, but overspread with matter. Herbert Brunton, the cab-driver, deposed that he resided in Brewers' Lane, off Cook- Street Auckland., He was acquainted with the deceased, Charles McLaughlin, whose nee was about 12 years. He was a school boy, and resided with his parent in Alexandra-street. On March 22nd witness was drivinp his cat) from the Rev. father Walter Macdonald's residence, in Chapel street, to the Queen-street |Wharf, The Rev. Fathers Macdonald and Gara val and Mr Darby, were inside the cab, and the boy McLaughlin was seated beside witness. Witness drove into West Queen-street, and was coming down the right hand side of that tnoroughfare. HetoSkthe right hand side because there was a drain in the centre. Suddenly his off-wheel came in contact with a heap ol earth, and turned the cab over. There would be two or three loads of clay in the heap referred to. Deceased liad got on the cab in Qaeen-street. He asked witness for a ride, and said he would hold the horses on the wharf. The accident threw witness to the other side of the street, and he was Bort of half stupid. He did not see the boy fall, and was not aware that he was injured until he (witness) got up aud caught the horses. Deceased had been taken away in the meantime. Witness then went and Informed the police of the occurrence. The accident occurred at about ten minutes to eight. The clergymen were going to a steamer. Witness was driving at the rate of six or seven miles an hour. Witness could not see the heap of clay ; there was no contractor's light on It, though there was a street lamp at the corner of West Queen and Albert-streets. Witness was perfectly sober at the time. At the time of the accident the boy wbb sitting quietly on the box. Witness was insensible for two or three minutes. Wit ness was not aware that the street was closed. He noticed blood on the wheel of the cab next day. He saw the boy after the accident, but had never been blamed by him as the cause of it. He believed de ceased had fallen between he wheel and the bottom of the trap. By the jury: Witness did not consider six or seven miles an hour too fast. He had hh "own lights. Was watching he drain side of the street. The heap of clay was fifteen or twenty yards from the street lamp. He was not aware of the existence o Pf the drain. The horses escaped the heap of earth. The distance from the sewer to the heap of earth was four or five feet. Auckland clay is usually of a light colour, but this was somewhat The evidence of Mrs Barbara Long bottom, who conveyed deceased to the Hospital, and Constable Ryan was taken. The Coroner having summed up, the iurv. after tno hours' consideration, returned the following verdict : - "That Char es McLaughlin came to his death accidentally by the upsetting of a cab on a heap of cloy in West Queen-street," to which the follow, ing rider was added :—" The police should, in future, see that all streets broken up by contractors for repairs Bhould be entirely closed for traffic."

Fears are entertained that the vessel has been lost. When the captain left he expressed is intention of going south. Will you kindly give directions that captains of steamers be requested to keep a look-out for wreckuge, as probably some of the crew may be cast ashore on the maiu land or adjacent island, and this Government will be glad if you will take such steps ns you can to solve the mystery of missing vessel. —(Signed) Colonial Treasurer, Sydney.
