ACCIDENT TO H.M.S. NELSON,

H.M.S. Nelson steamed outside for tor pedo practice, and returned to her anchor age. She had an accident to one to one of her anchors which might have been very serious. During the moderate gale last night, the officers of tho watch noticed the vessel was dragging, and immedietely gave the alarm, when a second anchor was let go, she having dragged some distance, and on heaving up the port anchor it was found that only the ring and stock and a small piece of the shank was left, there being a flaw in the iron. The anchor lost weighed 96 cvrt. If the wind had been from the westward, she would probably have been ashore before the ceuld have been brought up. The ball has been postponed till Monday evening, the eomanander not liking to leave his ship wbil« the weather is unsettled. ►She will not sail before Tuesday. The entertainment last sight by the crew of H.M.S. Nelson was a great success.

WELLINGTON, this day. MASSACRE OF THE IRISH. A fierce newspaper war is proceeding between the "Times" (edited by the Rev. D. Bruce) and the " Post," which (apart from the natural indignation of the Irish section of the community against the ." Times " for its gratuitous insult), is causing muck public comment. The "Times," referring to the recent outrages in Inland, Bays : "In such a case w« do not dispute but arrest and hang, and if the large majority of a nation bectmes morally diieaied and infected with_ an spidemie criminal mania, no sacrifice in to» great, in order to stamp it out, even though tbe remedy be war to the knife, such as Cromwell waged at Carrick-on- Suir andDrogheda." The " Post" replies, characterising the argument as "a blood thirsty proposal," and quotes from Crom well's despatches as to the terrible massacres that took place at Drogheda. Letters are pouring in expressive of disgust at the " Times's advooacy of a general massacre, while the editor clumsily flounders to explain it away. The affair has caused a deep sensation among the Irish lection of the population, and general an noyance all round,

A "Nemesis" on the lalkative

Members,

The following letter, signed "Nemesis," and addie&secl to certain members, appeared in the "Times" this morning :-" Gentle men : It has been my fortune to attend the debutes in your honourable House for.'somo few days past, in the course of which I had the gratification of making your acquaint ance in public. I should scarcely be doing my duty to you, gentlemen, or to the outside- public to whom you. speak, (for I will not insult your intelligence by supposing that you imagine the House cares to hear you) did I not tell you frankly that upon my mind at least you have left an impression the reverse of favourable. The settlers of this colony have placed you in the highest position of trust aud honour which it is in their power to confor. They have committed to your cbnrge their social and political interests on the one hand, and public property on the other. You, gentlemen, aro neglecting the one, and squandering the other, Your ' exuberant verbosity" is wearisome to the House, oxpensive to the country, and discreditable to yourselves. if it were possible to extract even a few grains of wheat from the mountain of chaff you almost daily pile upon the floor of the House, it might be possible to deal with you, but the perpetual irritation of insanity,and consequence,and stupidity,bas well nigh become intolerable. The difficulty you find in allowing yourselves to give a "silent vote" on any question under the sun, proves incontestably indeed that you have a conscience, but, gentlemen, the perfect flood of light which iiih been poured on the operations of that mysterious faculty has demonstrated this, at least, that there are consciences and consciences, and yours are certainly of an order which leaves room for considerable cultiva tion and improvement. The House, gentle men, has suffered your domination enough, and though, perhaps, members of your own party are too much afraid of lodng your votes to put you down, I venture to predict that if you do not mend your ways you will be tnktn in hand by the Housu itself in a manner which will be more effective than pleasant."

Ode of my brother scribes, and a well-in formed one too, has recently made refsrenco to my remarks anent the Auckland Steeple chase course, and, with me, hopes that the course will bo made more practicable this season. "Schiedam," if lam correctly in formed, ia one ot our best cross-country riders, and bis opinion certainly should have same weight. In the same paragraph he takes exception to my remark that "our course is the heaviest in the Australasian Colonies," instancing the Melbourne, Bal larat, and several other courses in which the jumps are bigger than at Auckland. If " Schiedam" will look at my paragraph again he will see that I did Dot refer to tho height of the jumps; my strictures were upon the general impracticability of the course, and tbe danger rnn by man and beast in nexociating it.

The entries for the Hawke's Bay Jockey Club Spring Meeting, published during tbe week, are very good. Amongst thoie en gaged for the Spring Handicap are Louie, Foul PUy, Libeller, Slander filly, Saun terer, Dan, Amazon, and 18 others. Twei.ty-oight have been nominated for tho Flying Handicap, and for tbe Hurdles four teen. Amongst the latter arc Te Whetu, Grey Momus, and Wild JJayrcll.

There hits been but little local betting during the ptst week on the Melbourne Cup. The principal lines have been Sweet William, 100 to 5 (taken), the double Sweet William and Prometheus, 400 to 3 (taken), the double Segeuhoe and Sweet William, 100 to 1 (offered).

Hilda, the Wellington Cup winner of ISS2, who went lame at the Dunediu Autumn Meeting, has returned to Christ church, after a run out 'at grass in the Umpire City. Hilda, along with the rest of Mr Bates's string, will be trained for foitlicoming events by Sam Higgot, who, it will be remembered, lately acted in a similar capacity for the " clever party," and it was in his hands Foul Play ran some of his best races.

According to latest Australian informa tion, betting is quiet on the big evcuti, In Melbonrnc, Segenhoe is still firm at 3 to 1 for the V.X.C. Derby, with Navigator at 7 to 1, Prometheus and Golden Butterfly being both at 10 to 1, but »h*n the former arrives from Adelaide, it is ex pected his price will shorten. 100 to 4 is taken and offered about Gudarz for the Cup. Sweet William and The «em are also being well supported for the same race. Sydney prices for the Gnat Metropolitan Stakes are aa under: 100 to 6v. Creawielr, 100 to 6v. Sardonyx, 100 to 5 v. Cunna ranlla, 100 to 5 r. Sting.

Emir Bay, thought by many the "crucified" animal in the C.J.C. Handi csp, has recovered from a recent blistering, and will be put in work immediately. The horse has furnished considerably in the last few months, and will, no doubt, be heard of in some of the coming big handicaps, if fairly treated, for he has proved himself a good one, and is well-bred enough for anything,

Wheatear and Sir Oliver were both severely hnrt while working at Kandwick on July 17th. They collided and fell, Wheatear was hurt on the stifla; Sir Oliver about the arm »nd shoulder. Wheatear's ■jockey had his leg broken, while the lad who was riding Sir Oliver had his left foot crushed. Wheatear was well backed to win the Melbourne Cap, and Sir Oliver was considered to have a good oatside show for the A.J.C. l?erby. It is d«ubtfnl -whether either horse can now be got ready for the campaign approaching.

Great Western, who won the V.R.C. Grand National Steeplechase, with list up, was a very strong favourite, 2 tol being the best price obtainable against him when the last Sydney boat left, One backer, on July 13th, took 500 to 200, and twice 100 to 40, and wished to go on, but could not be accommodated. Great Western got home first in the Maiden Steeplechase at the V.X.C. Winter Meeting last year, carrying list 121bs. The Hurdle winner, Khesus, was not mentioned in the betting, so the race has evidently been another «' boil-over."

" Wizard," in the " Town and Country Journal," treating ot the New South Wales three-year-olds in the Melbourne Cup, compares their weights with those imposed on Chester, First King, Petrea, Grand Flaneur, Progress, and others, and goes on to say, citing Segenhoe, " that on the score of breeding be cannot be said to be superior to either Chester or Grand Flaneur, yet we find he has to carry 141bs more than either of those grand colts did in the respective Cups won by them. And, moreover, we have yet to learn that he will turn ont to be such a clinker as both tbete celebrities proved to be. Fancy Segenhoe being ban dicapped to carry 30lb more than Pro gress did when he ran second to Grand

A Protest.—The following petition was submitted by Cr. Thompson :—' To His Worship the Mayor and Couucillors of the City of Auckland. Gentlemen, —Wo the undersigned residents, ratepayers, and pro perty owners in and around Freeman's Bay beg to state that your petitioners are in funned it is the intention of tho Union Oil and Soap Company to apply for permission to erect and carry out a manufactory of tlitj same in this locality. Your petitioners would humbly submit that an offensive manufactory of this kind in particular is a source of annoyance to the residents around it, depreciates the value of their property, and is injurious to the public health. The locality already bears a bad name for being unhealthy, in consequence of bad drainage, bone mills, and a low situation. That there is no occa sion for the directors of the Union Oil and Soap Company to teleet a site surrounded by dwellings. If thf y have to go outside the city boundaries, it will only place thorn on tho same footing as the Messrs Warnock brothers are, who carry on th« same busi ness, and arc now importing machinery for the manufacture of oil, &c. Also we tbink the directors themselves would be tho first to protest, and very strongly too, again»t a similar nuisance near their own private residences. That your petitioners humbly pray that the City Council will not allow any ebjeetionabie manufactory in tbe form of ail woiks, soap works, or bone mills to be established in this populous neighbour hood. And your petitienera will ever pray. July 25th, 1882." [Here followed 165 sig natures.]— The petition was referred to the Finance and General Purposes Com mittee.

More Light.—A petition was received from the residents of Albert-street, praying for the erection of a lamp at the northern conur of the street leading to the City Market.—lt was referred to the Streets Committee,

Wokks Committee.—Tho report of this Committee,recommending (1) the issue ot a builder's permit to Duimingbam and King ; (2) the dealing as aoun as practicable with three cross streets in Freeman's Bay; (3) the appointment of a sub-committee to re port upon loss sustained by Market stall holders through fire; (4) the authorising of action on the part of the Surveyor re Domain-street slip and Darby-street; and (5} the appointment of a sub-committee to enquire and report re electric light wfcs read and adopted. Messrs Fhillipps and Montague were appointed the sub-oommitteu to inquire into and re port upon the claims ot the Market lessee, and the fire Alarms Committee was em powered to ascertain all possible informa tion re electric light and report on same.

Steel Belu—lt was resolved, on the re commendation of the Fire Alarms Com mittee, to order a steel bell, in terms of the application of the Superintendent of the. Fire Brigade,

legal Committee. -This committee re commended that the judgment re Brunton's claim should be satisfied, and that applica tion should be made to the contractors for repayment—agreed to, ACCOUNTS.—The ordinary fortnightly accounts were passed, and payment authorised.

Endowment Committee.—This com mittee, recommended: (1) Ko Bovd's Lease, corner of Hopetown-street and Fonsonby Koad—that, pending the forma tion of street, the bnildinga be let for a month at the weekly rental, viz., two cottages at 10s each, two at 7s 6d eacb, one at (is; (2) Jeflcoat's lease (Canghley) 6s per week—to be deferred until the ipting ; (4) Brophy's lease — Corner shop and stable to be sold off the gronnd at expiry of present lease; two cottages, Hepburn-street, 6s and 10a per week, respectively; one cottage, Kew street, at 5s per -reek.

Park Committee. — Cr. Thompson tendered his resignation as a member of this committee, and Cr, Fhillipps was elected in his stead.

I Street Accidents. — Cr. Crowther ' thought that something should be done to protect the public from street accidents, consequent upon the erection of new build- I ings. Quite recently an accidenc occurred ■ through a piece of brick falling upon a lady's head while passing one of the brick buildings now in course of erection. The 1 protection to the public passing along the : footway was very inadequate. He did not undertake to say what would be the best course to adopt; but he ' could assure the Council that these hoardings were sources of great danger. Cr. Waddel quite concurred in what had b-e« stated by Cr. Crowther. He believed the time was come for the appointment of an officer to inspect theee hoardings, to see that they were safe, and that the danger to 1 the public was reduced to a minimum. It was not necessary to appoint a person of great skill or knowledge. It would be sufficient if he were a sensible and obser vant man, who would take notice of what i was required to protect passers by.—Crs. Montague, Thornpsorj, and Aickin also considered it necessary that some eteps should be taken in the direction referred to. A fter some further discussion, it was agreed to appoint a Cleik of Works, the matter being referred to the Finance and General Purposes Committee, in order that it may define the new officer's duties.

Nkw BffiMHNa Rkgulations.—These regulations were laid on the table and ad opted. The rough minutes were then read and the Council adjourned.

The Kadical and Conservative members are carrying ou the discursive debate, and are warmly criticising the Egyptian policy of tno Uoverninent. .

The Untrustworthy Turk

CONSTANTINOPLE, July2G,

Further communications have passed between the European Ambassadors and the Turkish Minister on the subject of the recent Identical Note of the Powers, in which the Turkish Government was aslccd to send troops to Egypt. The pourparlers have been so far successful that tho Portehas now consented to tho principle that it should interfore, with a view to tho settlement of the Egyptian difficulty, and send a force to quell the outbreak.

Doubt is expressed as to the success of the nenotiatious now proceeding between the European Ambassadors and the Otto man representatives, for the despatch of Turkish troops to Egypt. Notwithstanding the agreement of the Porte to discuss the Egyptian question with the* Powors, and its avowed consent to the principle upon which action should be taken for the settlo ment of the disorder in Egypt, no reliable estimate can be formed oftlie Porto's real intentions.

THIS MORNING'S RAIN.

Between the hours of midnight and eight o'clook this morning, there was an almost phenomenal fall of rain. Owing to the absence of the Government Meteorologist, Mr E. B. Dickson, we have been unable to ascertain the exact measurement, but on the authority of a gentleman well up in such njatteiß,we may state that the average niusthave been between two anil threo inches, Several portions of the suburbs were flooded temporarily, considerable damage being done to gardens, fences, etc, Newmarket appears to have been the most heavily visited in this respect; this morn ing at eight o'clock there was about three feet of water on the footpath in front of tbo shops opposite the Newmarket Hotel. Mr Hancock's paddock was a lake, and there was more than 18 inches of water on the floor of Messrs Button and Co.'a malt-house in Carlton Gore Ifoad. The Domain cricket ground was a sheet of water, indeed, a gentleman who visited the snot, informs us a boat conld have been sailed over it. In Parnell several of the culverts were flooded, and some trifling damage dose. "It's an ill wind that blows nobody good," and we anticipate tbat the various sawmills will receive largo supplies of logs. Mr Murdoch, of the Union Sash & Door Company, says be expects intelligence to that effect from Tairua. The rain, if it has ciiused a fresh, will be greatly appre ciated at the Thames, where npwards of 100 men ato out of employment through the stoppage of the Shortland fawmill for want ot logs to cut
