SUPREME COURT.-THIS DAY.

IN BAMCO,

(Before His Honor Mr. Justice Gillies.) PLUMLBT V. HAMERTON AMD ANOTIIBE —(Argument on Demurrer).—Mr E. Hes kethfor plaintiff in support of domuri er ;■ Mr Thoo. Cooper for defendant. —In .this j matter, argued last Court day, His Bonor, in delivering judgment, said:-This is an action brought by a person claiming to be righttully entitled to a certain piece of i land against the defondsnt Hamerloo, and j the District Land Registrar of Auckland, ; praying for declaration of plaintiffs title j and for an injunction against tVe defendant , Harncrton proceeding with an application j to have a certificate issued in his favour as owner of the said land under the land Transfer A«t, 1870, and against the Uis trict Land Registrar issuing such certificate. The facts aro somewhat peculiar. The ' plaintiff alleges, and it is admitted, that a ' predecessor in title—one Chandler—had ;a good legal title to the land in question. The plaintiff further alleges, and it is admitted for the purposes of this demurrer, that one Simpson bought from Chandler,—that in pursuance of such purchase Simpson entered into, and continued in and retained actual and exclusive possession of the land until the plaintiff under purchase from an inter mediate vendee entered into'and thence continued in and retained similar actnal and cxduiive possession 5 that Chandler died before actually executing a convey ance ef the laud—for which instructions had been given—to Simpson. These facts discloßb an apparently good equitable title. ton the part'ofthe plaintiff, as against Chandler's legal repWfiritatlves. * The1 de

claratioa further alleges that the defendant Ilamerton applied under the land Transfer Act for a certificate of title to the same land in his favour, and that the plaintiff lodged a cavent, netwithstanding which the defendant was proceeding with his ap plication, and that tbe liegistrar would, unless restrained, issue to the defendant a certificate of title. The plaintiff, there fore, prays a declaration of his title, and an injunction against the defendant from proceeding with his application, and against the Registrar from issuing a certificate of title. His Honor went on. to say that the defendant had entered four pleas, two of which formed the subject of the preaent demurrer. The first one was that the defendant (without alleging any title) made ( an application to have a certificate of title under the Land Transfer Act of 1870 issued to him for the land ; that the necessary investigations were made, and notices issued by the Land Transfer Department; that no cav«at was lodged within tbe time limited for that pur pose, and that thereupon he became entitled to be registered as owner. In sup port of the first proposition, the words of suction 24 of the Land Transfer Act were relied on, tho argument turning upon whether the word "shall," occurring in that section, nvuit be read a.% imperative in its meaning, or simply permissive. Hi* Honor was of opinion that the former was the true interpretation, but that which it was imperative on the Registrar to do under this section was not forthwith te issue a certificate of title, but o»ly to tako the further steps necessary to bring the land under the provisions of the Act. He did not think that the applicant obtained a title to the land under tbe Act until tbe actual title to the certificate. What he did obtain was a right to call upon the Registrar to proceed with the necessary steps for obtaining a titlo unless meanwhile restrained by com potent authority—suca as an injunc tion of the Court, and it was tbis that the plaintiff [now sought. As to a further point taken on behalf of the defendant that the plaintiff was bound to lay a foundation for obtaining an injunction by entering a caveat within the time limited, His Honor considered that there was nothing in the Act compelling a plaintiff to lodge a caveat before bringing his action. The second plea demurred to was as follows :—(2) That in mnking the application for the certificate of title he (tho defendant) was acting as public trustee under the Public Trast Act Amendment Act, 1873, having been ap pointed Administrator of Chandler's estate as such trustee, and that under sec. 30 of that Act no action oould be brought against him without leave of this Court. His Honor was of opinion that the defen dant failed to bring himself within the pro visions of section 30 of the above-mentionea Act, as ho hud not alleged that he had managed the real estate of Chandler, or that the application for the certificate of title wa« an act done by him in the course cf such minagement. But, even if ho had io alleged, thia action was not brought for anything he had done in the coarse of such management, viz., the application to bring tho land under the Act. it having been brought to provent his doing another act, viz., the obtaining of a certificate ot title, his intention to de which' had been niani. festod by his previous application.—After dismissing with a few woids the objections raised to the declaration, Bis Honor held that the demurrer must be allowed, with costs against the defendant, Hamerton. Re William Ewaet Sa>sbury—(a debtor).— Application for discharge.—Mr Speed made"the application, and tho papers being regular and no opposition being offered. th» order was granted. Re John Woirrn Pjcabse - (a debtor.) - Application for discharge.— Mr Thoo, Cooper, in moving ior the nece«ary order, stated that the creditors were nearly all residents in other countries a period of 12 months had been allowed to elapss s« as to allow of any opposition. None had been offered, however.—His Honor granted the order, after remarking that there was nothing in the tru»lee's report to deter him from doing so, and that the usual formula had been observed.

An inquest was held on the body of Nel son, who was found dead in his cell at the gaol yesterday. The evidence showed that the utmost attention and kindness -was shown to the deceased, who was left alone at his own request, and although the doctor, who »aw the man on Sunday mam ing, had diagnosed the case correctly, there appeared no probability of a fatal termina tion. The post mortem provod that death resulted from congestion of the lungß, but the liver was diseased, and all the stomach and intestines congested. A verdict was given accordingly.

THE SUEZ MAIL NEWS.

The Massacre ut Alexandria,

The fallowing private letter has been re ceived from an officer in the fleet:—''Off Alexandria, 17th June.—My dear —,—We are dwellin? la the midst ot alarms, with our loins girded, &c, all ready to knock down forts and otherwise protect British interests. There waß a deuce of a row last Sunday, and we were all precious lucky to get back to the ship alive. I fancy the row was arranged by Arabi, so that he could have the pleasure of putting it down ; but like every othor row, it had some raison d'etre, and this was easily found ia a squabble oetween some Arabs and Greeks. The Arabs began to break windows., and the Greeks produced firearms and lot fly among them. I -way in the same strcot about a couple of hundred oil', and saw the stones flying and the shoot ing ; but though there were Arabs all about us, they never made an attempt to annoy us in any way. Presently up came some troops, all anyhow, without a single officer, and began to blaze away with great im partiality ; but it struck us all that for choice they went tor the Europeans. We being between the bait; of the mob and the troops, and teeing people beginning to drop, thought, on the whole, we we're not very happily placed, and having, by the bless ing ot Providence, found ourselves near a door, executed a strategic movement to the left, got inside the door and locked it. The homo we got into turned out to bo a sort of monastery school, and there we remained for over an hour. Outride the funwas becoming decidedly fast and furious. The soldiers pegged away merrily and the Arabs looted. We could see them through the shatters carrying off all sorts ot trash—toys, chairs, baths (and what could an Arab do with a bath?)-in fact, anything they could lay their hands on. Presently the soldiers, having evidently got our part of the town inte something like order, we strolled out, trying to look as it we were not in a funk, and, iv fact, rather liked it. My friend and 1 were just Rotting Into a trap to drive down to the landing place, when an Egyp tian policeman, who could speak English, came up and told us it was certain death to drive down where we were going, n« tho mob were at their worst there, and wore hauling tho people out of the cabs and cutting their throat*. We at once came to the conclusion that we would give up our diive, and went to the nearest consulate, where we waited till .the dis turbance was over. All this was child's play compared to what happened to another lot. About half an hour before wo got to the consulote four of our fellows-a groat friend of mine (S.)i a little Swede wo are educating on board here, one of our doctors, and an engineer—got into a cab and proceeded to drive down. All of a sudden they were surrounded by a mob of Arabs, who stoned the horses and went for them with tbeir sticks. Being, of course, completely unarmed, they ran, S. and the Swede being one side, and the doctor and engineer the other. Dear old S., having been rather a professor at football in the days of his youth, being very strong and quick on his pins, and the littly Swede being also sa hard as nails, they managed to get through the brutes, with no injury ex cept a good hammering all over. Of tho others, one was stabbed and beaten to death, and the other, who is still in bed, after boing beaten most fright fully, managed to crawl up to a soldier, who, for a wonder, behaved like a trump, sto«d over him with a fixed bayonet, and finally shoved him into a house, where he stepped all nigh*, aid was fetched on board next day, poor chap, in a mast pitiable con dition. And now comes the moat extra ordinary thing of all. One of our chief petty officers was ashort on leave. Our poor engineer was picked up by another imp going the other way, and wa» taken to the police station, as ho was btiag helped out of the trap another Arab came up, banged him over the head, and knocked him down. The potty officer went for the beast with a common thorn walking-stick he had in his hand, jammed it into his montn with such force that it came out behind the car and killed him dead. There certainly iB a Providence watching over sailors, be cause this fellow was hardly touched. When he came on board and said that he had killed his Arab, as before described, nobody believed him. However, it turacd out to be absolutely true. The telegrams v.lll have told you more than we know about the numbers killed, but there is no doubt that they finished off at least 60 Europeans, and heaven only kuows how many Arabs." Mr R. T. Bourne, barrister, of Rathfarn ham, Dublin, has received a letter from his sister relative to the murder of her hus band, Dr H. P. Ribton, in toe rcoent ma«sa ere at Alexandria. Tho bereaved widow writes :—" They have murdered my hus band, and I am alono in the world, the only friends we had being killed with him. I know not what to do. All are flying, but where are we to fly to? My poor child saw her darling father killed, and was only saved herself by the mighty arm of God, being carried into a harem, where they kept her till late at night, then brought her home to me ia dis guise. May God remember them in tho last day ! Oh, what my poor child has gone through, and the blows the brutes gave Tier! Ido not know how she is alive. I only learned yesterday that my darling was dead. I hoped against hope that he might have been taken to some hotpital, and so $ke waß, but thrown naked on the ground, Vnd so mutilated that no one could know him.

The Prefect of Police at Alexandria, who was suspected of causing the recent mas sacre, has mysteriously disappeared since tbe discovery of strange evidence, which 'will shortly be forthcoming, showing the premeditated and arranged character of tbe riot. *

PRESENTA TION OF DIPLOMAS.

Bishop Cowie's Address,

' Pursuant to notice,tho public presentation of diplomas to tho Rev. John King Davis, M.A., of Ponsenby, MrWm. Fidlcr, M.A., Whansarei, and Mr E. J Macfarland.B.A,, of St. John's College, took place this after noon in tho Choral Hall, with all the iclat belilting such on occasion. Over 200 invi tations hadhcen issued to persons interested in education, public officers, men of the learned professions, and representative men generally, and notwithstanding the un favourableness of the weather, a very large proportion of them were responded to, whiln the invitation addressed through the press to all and sundry had also met with a hearty response. Tho fair sex was well represented in the audience, and school teachers were present in large numbers. Bishop Cowie (Member of tbc Uuivorsity Sennte) having been deputed to make the presentation,took tho chair, and » number of graduate*, attired in their academical dross, occupied scats on tho platform, amongst them being tho Bishop's Secretary (Mr H. (J, Soth Smith, M. 4.) There were also a number of clergymen, etc., present. After the proceedings hud been opened in the usual manner, the Chairman delivered the following address : — ■. .-- As the chancellor of tho University is unable to visit Aucklaud at this time, to prosont diplomas to those of our foil' W citizens who have obtained degrees during the last twelve months, bo haß appointed me, as a Fellow of tho University, to do so for him, Tho three graduates whose diplomas are now to be presented, obtained their degrees on the 25th of April 1 u>t, after examinations conduct^ according to the regulations of the University. The conferring of dogreea is not at all dopen dent on this ceremony of presentation; but it has been thought advisable that our New Zealand University should, in the matter of a public presentation of diplomas, follow the custom of the ancient universities of Eucland, Of the three diplomas now to be pre sented, two arc for the degreo of Master of Arts, and one for that of l*achclor of Arts, ■ Our New Zealand M.A. is moro valuable as a guarantee of learning than an Oxford or Cambridge M.A., inasmuch as tho University of tho Colony requires a farther examination to bepaesod by Bache lors of Arts, who woald become Masters, while at Oxford and Cambridge all Bache lorg can b«como Mastarg after the expira tion of a certain number of years, on paying the prescribed fees. The new Masters, whose diplinus are to-day to be praseotod, both obtained honeurs in thj* examination ; one of them, tlj« Vcr. John King Davia, being p!ac«d in tiio first class in Language* and Literature, »h« other, Mrßdler, hating distinguished himsulf in Mental Science. 1 have tho gratification of addlngtbat MrDavis and Mr Mcl'arland received their education in Auckland, at the Church of England College of St John the Evangelist, chiefly under the Rev. Dr. Kinder, to whom bo many of our citizen' arc indebted for what ever learning they possess- The number of University graduates among our young men and women, and the amount of learn ing guaranteed by the Bachelor's or the Master's degree, will always bo chiefly do pendent on the quality of tho teaching gi»cn In our Secondary Schools, to which our University professors will have to look for the.rsyv material en which their talents are *c be exercised. If the Universities are to be the sanctuaries of the highest culture of the couotry, says Professor Huxley, "those who would eater that sanctuary must not coma with unwashed hands. If the good Bead is to yield its hundred-fold harvest, it must not be scattered amidst the stones of ignorance, or the tares of un. disciplined indolence and wantonness. On the contrary tno soil must have been care fully prepared, and the Professor should Had that the operations-of clod-crushing, draining, and weeding, and even a good deal of plantiog have been done by the schoolmaster." Since tho list presentation of diplomas in this place, th.c prospects of Auckland have greatly improved in respect to higher education and University training. without losing the services of those who have done so roach for our young people in the , past— among whom J would specially name Mr Farquhar Macßae, wo liavo obtained the services of others, well qualified in every respect to make the teaching of our secondary schools what it should be. And our secondary schools must be able to look to our primary schools, for boys and girls, well grounded in the ejements of knowledge, thoroughly taught in the several branches of their education, and trained to be accurate in all that they learn. It is through our primary schools that our village Faradays and Darwins are to be got hold of, and provided with all the help and encouragement they oecd, for the development of faculties through;;; Jphjch the whole colony, and perhaps mankind in general, may in after days be benefited and enriched. We arc all much indebted to frir George Maurice OK orke for the zeal and ability with which he has advocated the claims of Auckland on the Legislature of the colony for pecuniary help towards establishing a Univewi'y College in this city, and meeting the necessary expenses of University teaching. Before the next presentation of degrees in Aupklnnd, we have reason to hope that our Uhivoreity College will be in full operation, and that the enconragement held out to yonpg men and women to follow the example of those whose diplomas are now to be pre sented will be greatly increased, Mr Theo. H eale aho spoke, The diplomas were then presented, the Rev. J.IC Davis & MrMacfarland receiving theirs in person, and Mr 11, G. Heth Stpit.li acting as proxy for Mr Fjdler, who wai prevented by bfs sphc-lastc duties from leaving Whangarei in prp>r to attend the ceremonial ' ',
