Messrs Daniel and Buckley. The election , had been very closs, and under all the cir cumstances the Court held tbat the elec tion was void, as four votes had been im properly refused, and thete might have in fluenced the election. He believed the taxed coats amounted to £634. If through official errors, innocont men were to be mulcted thus, poople of means would hesitate about becoming candidates. He did not, under the circumstances, blame the Government for their choice of Keturning Officers. In the Franklin ense illegal questions had been asked by tho He turning Officer, nnd electors were deterred from exercising their lepal right, and the election had properly been declared void, but through, no fault of Major Harris. He did not ttink any dangerous precedent would be created by the adoption of his Mr Hobbs thought the name of Mr Buck laud should also bo inserted. Mr Ivess said he was in the same por tion as Mr Buckland, and had been put to gerious cost, but he did not feel justified in making any claim. Mr HOBBJ moved that Mr Buckland s name be inserted, Mr FITZOERALD said the motion opened up a largo question. How was the House to know whether the candidates were to blame or not ? An enquiry should be made by a committee. Mr MORRIS supported it, as the Govern- j ment was responsible for tbe errors of its i servants. I Mr WESTON supported the motion, but thought a committee should be appointed to inquire into the facts of the cases. Mr Sheehan supported the motion, and also the inclusion of Mr Buckland's name. The bills of costs in these election cases were monstrous, aud if made in the Supreme Court the praotitioner making them would have stood a good chance of being struck off the rolls. He moved, "That a committee be appointed to report on the various caios of election potition on quiries, and also the costs charged in such CSOB." After further discussion, Sir J. Hall said Mr Sbecban's amend ment was very indefinite, and he moved it be amended as follows:-"That a select committee be appointed to report whether in any of the cases in which election peti tions havo been tried by the Election Petitions Courts the circumstances are such as render it jnst nnd reasonable that the persons or Government on whom the cost of such trials have fallen, should be relieved therefrom by a grant from . the Colonial Treasury, and also as to the cost charged in such inquiries. Mr SIIEEHAN accepted this, and, after a few words from Mr Fulton as to the Re turning Officers not being ordinary civil servants, the amendment was agreed to.

NAVAL TRAINING VESSELS,

Mr Shjeiian moved, and it was agreed to, " That a select ommittco be appointed, consisting of ten members, to consider and report upon the beat means of giving effect to the expressed wishes of the House in favour of naval training vessels, the com mittee te have power to call for persons and papers, and to report in one month. The members of the'committee to consist of Mr Daniel, Mr Tnrnbull, Mr Allwright, Mr Macandrew, Mr Peacock, Mr Swanson, Mr Hnrst, Mr Joyce, tho Hon.

BAILW-Y MANAGEMENT ENQUIRY.

Mr J. Evans Brown briefly moved that a committee be appointed to enquire into and report on the present system of manage ment of the railways of the colony, the committee to consist of the Hon. Sir John Hall, Hon. W. Johnston, Mr H. Thomson, Mr Fergus, Mr Peacock, Mr Fish, Mr Macandrew, Mr Fold wick, Mr Hobba, and the mover"; three to form a quorum, and to have power to call for persons and papers ; to report within a month.

CRIMINAL SITTINGS.

(Before His Honor Mr. Justice Gillies).

FORGERY.

The charge of forgery and uttering against James Troy, Samuel Bowden, and Samuel Dufty, was proceeded with after we went to press yesterday.—Bow donpleadedguilty.—Afteralengthy hearing, Troy wasjacquitted, and Bowden and Dufty found guilty.—The jury made a present ment as to the facilities afforded by trades men for the commission of offences of this kind. — His Honor : I sympathise with your presentment, when one considers the facility with which these cheque forms can be got. I think these facilities should not be given. They incite to the commis sion of this offence. His Honor, in passing sentence, considered that Dufty was the instigator of the crime. There was a pre vious conviction against him. The other • prisoners were probably induced to partici pate in' the crime through his influence. The sentence *on him was three years' penal servitude 5 that on Bowden was two years' imprisonment with hard labour, Troy was discharged from custody.

THIS DAY.

WOUNDING WITH INTENT.

Pakara and Epiha, two aboriginal natives, were arraigned upon an indictment charging them with feloniously and wil fully, and with malice aforethought, shoot ing at and wounding one William Francis DaldyMcWilliams, withintefct to kill him, at Rotokohu, on the 29th August, 1879. Mr Brown was sworn in as interpreter. Mr Brassey appeared for the prisoners, and pleaded not guilty. ' :J The evidence in this case was published by us in extenso when the. hearing at the Police Court took place several weeks ago. William Francis McWilliams, an Ohine muri miner, deposed that in August, 1879, he was engaged by Mr Bayldon to cut a iarv.y track'at Pukehanga, Upper Thames; Oil the 2sth he and Pqwdfell weirs wording together, felling trees, when they beard a native voice saying, " You die, pakeha," in the Maori language. Looking round he observed two gun barrels pointing at htm through the scrub. With the object of getting out of the range of fire, he threw himself on his back, and jnst then there was an explosion, and a bullet passed, taking off the top of one of the fingers of his right hand, Was about to run away, but had only gone several steps when he heard other reports, and bullets struck him in various parts of the body. He fell, and the natives surrounded bim. After'stop ping a short time, they went away, calling out "E Pera" He found his right leg powerless, and crawled into the scrub. Saw Powdrell soon afterwards, and ho wept for assistance. . * , Messrs Powdrell, John Williams.Puckey, and Dr Payne gave evidence similar to that deposed to in the Police Conrt. ,

Mr Puckey deposed that at a meeting of natives shortly after .the outrage, he asked who it was that shot McWilliams. Kpiha replied that he did it. Ho (witness) demanded of Epiha that he should surrender himself up to justice, and he re fused.saying that lie was willing to be tried by the Council df Hauraki, but that he objected to be tried according to the Queen's law, Pa.tara was present.and heard all thut was said. He was sitting to Epiha. Witness did not make any threat, or hold out any promise. Did not address himself particularly to anyone.

The case for the prosecution was closed at three o'clock.

Mr Brassey proceeded to call evidence to shew that the si,atetnent by Epiha, at tho meeting, that he committed the crime, was on behalf of the wholo tribe ; that his meaning was that the shooting had been done by the hapu, ot whicn he was a mem ber.

CURIOUS DEFENCE FOR FORJERY.

(BY TELEGRAPH—OWN CORRKSPONDENT.)

CHRISTCHCRCH, this day. AT the Criminal Sessions of the Supreme Court to-day, a prisoner named Daniel Mann offered a curious defence to a chargo of forging a cheque for £9 ou the Union Bank of Australasia. He admitted having written the name on the cheque nnd having cashed it, but said that he told the person to whom he paid the cheque that the name was his own, and consequently he had not com mitted a forgery. He added that a sailor might as well be charged with forgery if he signed a false name to the receipt for hii wages, or the Priace of Wales might be placed in the dock on a similar charge if, travelling incog,, he signed another name than his own in the visitors' book at an hotel. Mr Justice Williams instructed the jury that if they considered that tho piiioner signed a false name on the cheque with the intention to defraud, the fact that he had informed the 'person who cashed the cheque that the name was his own, would not make him Innocent of forgery. The jury found a verdict of guilty without leaving the box, and the pritoner then asked leave to withdraw his plias of not guilty to the other three counts In the indictment, as he had no other de fence tban that raised. The prisoner further remarked that storekeeper* ought to .be more careful in cashing cheques, as by the reckless way in which they accepted every cock and bull story told them in regard to cheques, in reality they condoned the offence. At the time lie had forged this order he was almost in the horrors, yet he was not asked a question. The prisoner has recorded against him three convictions for various offences committed at Napier. He ia an intelligent man and respectably dressed.

STRANGE FREAK OF A WAIKATO GIRL.

A Sab Case.

On Satvrday last tho police found a respect ably-dressed, good-looking girl, aged ap parently about 19 years of age, wandering about Newtnn suffering evidently from mental derangement, while a very cursory glance sufficed to show that she was in an interesting condition. She was taken in charge and conveyed to the Hospital, whero she made an incoherent statement to the effect that she was a married woman, that her husband's name was Smith, and that she had been inveigled into a house and drugged. The worthy head-nurse of the in stitution could dscovet nothing that would indicate where she came from, or what the circumstances were that had brought her to so calaniatous a conditioh. On Tuesday last, however, an elderly woman Darned Dinnan called at the Hospital and made inquiries respecting a person answering to the description of the supposed Mrs Smith, When the patient was shown to her she at at once identified her as Sarah Swarm, who had been in her lervice, at Hamilton, until the early part of last week. Prom Mrs Dinnan's story, it would appear that the girl, some months ago, left her father's honae, along with a sister, because their parents objected to their receiving the attention of two young men with whom they have been keeping company. Satrh proceeded to Hamilton, taking service with Mrs Dinnan, while her sister obtained em ployment in tbe family of a Te Awamutu settler. Mrs Dinnan, with the quick percep tion of tbe middle a_ed' matron, detected very soon that there was something wrong with her handmaiden, and she accused her of being enciente. The girl, now ever, so strenuously denied that such was the case that her suspicions were for the time allayed. Early laat week, Miss Swarm obtained a few days'holiday from her mistress, avowedly with the intention of visiting her sister, at Te Awamutu. As she did not return on the day appointed, Mrs Dinnan's suspicions were aroused, and she soon dis covered that the girl had not gone to Te Awamutu at all. Pursuing her investsga tion she discovered that the girl hacLpro ceeded by train in the direction of Auck land. The good lady at once determined on pursuing her servant, and after tracing her from station to station, she found her at the Old People's Refuge here. The girl has been deranged since her admission, and created some uneasiness by abscond ing from her keeper's last night. She was discovered to-day, and conducted back to the Institution, where the advent of a little stranger is hourly expected. Mrs Dinnan states when the girl left her home there was no trace of insanity.

Captain McClymonl, of the schooner Saxon, who met with an accident yester day, had his injured arm amputated at the Hospital shortly after admission. He is now doing as well as'could be expected. A meeting of creditors in the estate of Richard Cox, miner, CoromandeJ, was lo have been held to-day, but as there were no creditors present, Mr Thomas Macffar lane was appointed trustee. Thompson's Panorai_a of the Zulu War was again exhibited in the Opera House last evening. There was a good attendance. The'usual gift distribution was made, and caused much amusement. The weather promises to be more favourable this even ing, and there should, therefore, be a largo number of persons present. ; Kopler Bros. Waxworks Exhibition has arrived, and on Saturday next- will be opened to the public, quarters having been secured for it in the premises adjoining Phillipps' tailoring 'establishment, Queen street. There are said' to be about 150 figures in the collection, and amongst them good likenesses of Gladstone, Parnell, Te Whiti, the Kelly gang, and Moonlight, while a figure representing Winiata is said •to be in course of preparation. The exhibi tion will be supplemented each evening with an instrumental concert by the Messrs Kopler and Mr W. Hydes. The admission fee is fixed at one shilling ; children half price..

i His Worship the Mayor has issued invi tations for a farewell ball in honour of the Commodore and officers of H.M.S. Nelson and of the officers of H.I.G.M.S. Carola as well. It is to take place at his private residence, the Towers, Remuera, to-morrow night. At the meeting of the City Council this evening the recommendations of the Finance and General Purposes Committee, re the offer of the St. Helier's Bay Company to lay down and work tramways in the city, will come on for consideration, The Com pany's rival in the project (viz., Mr Pear son, of Melbourne), has taken no further steps in the matter beyond telegraphing that he is preparing to submit an offer. Another telegram, however, may be. received from him before the honr of meeting.

HERBERT BRUNTON V. COR PORATION.

AT the R.M. Court to-day, the Resident Magistrate, J. M. McDonald, Esq., de livered the "following judgment in the case Herbert Brunton v. City Council—claim, £100 damages, for injury to plaintiff and his cab [by an accident caused by an un guarded excavation in West Queen-street: —Of the two arguments employed in tho defence, the second one, which claimed that the plaintiff had, by hia own negli gence, so contributed to the accident as to absolve the defendants from any otherwise possible liability, fell through, inasmuch as nothing had been advanced in support of it except the fact of the plaintiff having been driving on his wrong Bide, but this did make him gnilty of negligence, and certainly not "contributory" negligence, as for the other argument of the defence—viz., that as defendants had let the works on con tract, and neither the contractors nor their workmen were servants of the defendants, the defendants were not responsible—it would have been good enough as to a certain class of acta on the part of the contractor or their workmen, bnt the matter complained of in this action was not ef such a class. He thought the sum which should be awarded the plaintiff, in consideration of loss of time, and damage to cab, etc., was £75, and, therefore, he gave judgment for that amount.

The telegaam will also ask for the necessary apparatus to mount the heavy guns already in the colony, now lying useless, The interesting point of tho whole thing is, that this message must neces»arily pass through the hands of Russian telegraphists.
