THE ASSAULT CASE.

Hearing ourned Till To-morrow.

The Policf urt was crowded this morn ing with f n! anxious to hear tho par ticulars of charges of assault preferred by Mr J.D°kham against Dr. Harrison. Thrir cnrifi however, was not gratified. His Wor- H. G. Seth Smith, Esq., Resident igistrate, having taken his seat on> , bench, George Edward Harrison ic'l™l Cole, M 1™11? am} James If. were called and charged with hg. on the lltn instant, unlawfuPssaulted one John Dickson Wickhatf striking him on the head. — Mr R. wning, who appeared for tho dofend'a' asked if an information had been IoX ns ho was about to apply for nn ndjonont> ftnc' tDO information had not alr< been laid> '10 hoped it would be done b° tomorrow. —Mr Brassoy said he apio'! f°r tMO gentleman who had been Jilted", and he Mould bo quiic M'illins havo the information laid as requos'f '** would assist his friend.—Mr Browi' tnen applied on behalf of tho defemß f°l" an adjournment till to inomin orclcr tlmt tllL'y 'nife'l"l liavc timo to together tho necessary witnesses. Tlie"'ll defendant, Mr Harrison, was onlyrostod yesterday at four o'clock, and ■ not bailed out till half-past five.— j\r r issey said ho had no objection to offeon adjournment.—-Mr Browning then ask/hat Millet and Aspinall be admitted to Jin their own recognizances. So far as 'rison was concerned, tho bail might l, o iargod, if thought desirable—Mr UiOy said he had no objection to tho lad M* being admitted to bail in his own re coznnces, but in the case of tho others, |~3ld that the bail should be enlarged. _r Browning consented to this course, a mentioned that Superintendent Thom shad approved of tho sureties and bail last night.—The case was thon ad rned till 10.30 a.m. to-morrow.

Mr Asplnall'B Statement.

The account of tho assault published by ■ last night was furnished to our reporter yMr Wickham. Mr Aspinall's version of ue affair is to the following effect. He says hat the youth Millet, who is employed by Mr Haslett, went with Dr. Harrison and himself to show them the " Free Lance" office, but neither he nor Millot had tho slightest notion when they went to tho offico that any row would tako place. Dr. Harrieon went into tho offico and naked Mr Wickham if the editor was in. Mr Wickham replied that he was tho editor, and Dr. Harrison said he had come to speak to him'for a minuto. Mr Wickham said "Yes," and took them into his office. Dr. Harrison then asked if ho owned a paper called "Figaro," and Mr Wickhnm replied in tho affirmative. Some conversation ensued regarding his rates of advertising, and Dr. Harrison thon asked for the nnme of tho writer of nn article in "Figaro" referring to Mrs Dr. Potts, which Mr Wickham refused to givo. Dr. Harrison, thon told him to defend him soli. At first ho refused, but on the doctor removing his overcoat and hat, Mr Wick ham started up and made for tho door. Dr. Harrison then struck Mr Wickham. The cut on Mr Wickham's head was caused by his falling against the tablo in the scuffle. Neither he nor Mr Millet took any part in tho affair, which was quite unex pected, and tlioy did not know why they should have been arrested. It is also said that earlier in tho day Dr. Harrison and his •brother had interviewed Mr Browning, solicitor, with a view to legal proceedings against Mr Wickhnm for tho publication of tho paragraph in question.

Tho Cause of tho Trouble.

The parapraph which led to the assault appeared in "Figaro" on Wednesday, evening, and is as follows :—" I supposo I shall De told that it's no business of mine, but as everything's a barber's business I havo no scruple while shaving to administer a cub to the female doctor, or whatever she likes to call herself (*o can't be a woman in the best, highest, and purest senso of the word) who is lecturing in "another place," as they say in tho House of Cony mons at home. This—what on earth shall I call it ? hybrid, perhaps. For it is certainly no man by its appearance, no woman by its modesty, and not even a thoroughbred cross by its sentiments—is lecturing to-night to married couples, that is to say, men accom panied by women, or boys accompanied by girls, on " Husbands and Wives." I'm not particularly moral, for a barber must listen to ail his customers have to say, and amuse them in their own way, but I do think this creature has been given rope enough, and it is full timo that an American diploma should no longer be allowed to be a cloak for American in decency in a British colony

Fioaro,

Dr. Harrison's Statement.

Dr. Harrison states that tho slander given abovo was printed in the afternoon, before the lecture on "Husbands and Wives " was delivered, and that a boy had been sent to tho Theatre Royal where the lecture was to be delivered.to distribute copies at the door He had already given away some when he was ordered off. The boy on being questioned stated that he had been sent there by Mr Wiekham for tho purpose of circulating them. Dr. Harrison says Mr Wickham had applied for an ad vertisement, and was refused, and he attributes the attack on Mrs Potts and tho attempt to injure her lecture to this cause. Dr. Harrison further states that ho had no intention of committing an assault when he went into the office, but had gone there simply for the purpose of ascertaining, if possible, the author, with a view of taking legal proceedings. That it was only when Mr Wickham expressed his own concurrence in the [attack on Mrs Potts that ho was provoked to challenge him to defend himself. Dr. Harrison is Professor of in the Californian Medical College. The case will be heard at the Police Court to-morrow, when the whole facts will no doubt come out.

Mr T. Peacock, M.H.R., having tele graphed to the Minister of Public Works with reference to the delay in proßing on tho railway between Hamilton and Mornns ville received a reply from the Minister of Public Works to-day, stating that plans, specifications, and advertisements were for warded by yesterday's steamer.

In the dispute between Messrs Pilking ton and Elliot, reported in our Mondays issue, the decision was as follows : In Pil kington v. Elliot, the artribution resulted in favour of the first named, tho award being £230 0s 3d ; costs of reference, £26 ; costs of award, £15 15s; Court costs, £8 19s ; total, £30S 15s Id. In Elliot v. Pil kington, the arbitration resulted in Elliot's favour, the award being £99 15s Id, each party to bear half cogte; award costs £20 ; and Court costs, £7 7s.

A splendid collection oi 2300zp. of gold and specimens from the Success mine, Coro mandel, was exhibited in Captain Frater's window, Insurance Buildings, to-day. This haul was obtained from the No. 4 level, and includes a large quantity of puie^Tgo^d and some remarkably rich quartz, in fact, the best ever yet obtained from the mine. Its value is estimated at about £400. Shares have an upward ten dency in consequence of improved prospects/ as will be seen on reference to oursharolist.

DEFERRED Business.—ln accordance with a written request from Mr Buckland (who was absent through illness), his special re solutions were postponed for a week. Whanoakoa Nokth.—Mr Goldie moved, "That the resolution of the Board dated sth July, 1883, declining to incur expense of new school buildings at Whangaroa North, and granting £100 for repairs be rescinded ; and that plans be prepared and tenders invited for the erection of a new teacher's dwelling at that place."— Aftor some discussion, tho motion was amended by the addition of the following proviso, and then carried ; —Provided that the building does not cost more than £400, and that the Board is allowed to occupy the present building for two years, on con dition of spending £20 on repairs. SisaiNo Master's Salary.—Mr Goldie moved, " That tho resolution of the Board, dated 3!st August, ISS3, declining to in creaso salary of Mr Thomas Cranwoll, teacher of singing, be rescinded, and that Mr Cranwell's salary bo increased to the rate of £250 (cxclusivo of horse allowance). —A discussion took placo, but the motion was eventually passed.

For addittions to dwelling at Alexandra only one tender was received, viz., Arthur Barns, £137, which was accepted. The Engineor reported that the four tenders roceivod for teachers' dwelling at Wainui were all too high, the estimate being £3GO, and the lowest tender being £450 (W. G. Smith, Auckland).—Tho matter was referred to tho Engineer and Mr Goldio, in order that tho specifications may be amended by roducing the cost.

Clocks.—Mr Bartlett boing tho only tonderer for supply of No. 2 clocks, his tender was accepted.

Religious Instruction in Schools. — Mr Theo. Cooper gavo notice that ho would movo at the noxt meeting of the Board, "That the Board rocogniso the fact that roligious instruction in schools during school hours is contrary both to tho letter and spirit of "Tho Educa ion Act of 1877," but recommend that School Committees allow ministers of religion the uso of tho schoolrooms nftor school hours for the purpose of imparting roligious instruction to such of tho children who, with tho corsmt of their parents or guardians, may wish to attend for such pur pose." Ho said he had been led to bring this forward as tho Board had some time ngo ro jectcd ft similar proposition, and ho wished to rescind that action.

MINING NEWS.

[From the "Coromandel Mail.]

Union Beach.—Tho manager, in pros pecting about the surface of the mine last week, found gold in some small Btringers of quartz, close to the old Green Harp awindlo shaft, and as he stoped further into the sandstone discovered a fine-looking leader, only about three feet from tho eastern or hanging-wall side of the Greon Harp leader. There is a face openod which will give two feet of crushing stuff, chiefly sandstone intersected with quartz. This find is on the road lovel, and only about a hundred yards from the battery; consequently, dirt ia broken down into tho truck, and sont straight into the battery. The cost of getting out crushing stuff i» thus very little, and if haH-an-ounce to tho ton is obtained, will prove payable, and at present the show on the plates looks worth the half ounce. Intermediate level: Drivine is proceeding on a fine-looking leader. Tho faco is going toward the slide, and will soon bo underneath the spot whero somo fair gold was got about a month ago. Daniel's leader is not yet picked up, but must have a very strong underlie from tho face; henco its not being cut a fortnight ago. Stopes: A few colours of gold aro seen in breaking down, but no specimons.

ToKATKA. —In the rise going ur» strong colours of gold aro visible, promising well for the future development. The face of the low level is still in hard ground with small veins of quartz throughout.

Homeward Bound. —Gale and party have takon this mine on tribute, and as tho ground is woll opened up, and a fair show of gold can be got in several parts of the reef, they have every prospect of obtaining a payable return. Arrangements have been made by which tho Emily battery has been secured.

Success.—Mr. Peter Reid, tho manager of this mine, is once more becoming the centre of attraction, and it is to be hoped that his visits to the bank with specimens will be of frequent occurenee. He has made a good start with 36 ounces for ten days, and as a fair show of gold is being carried up with the rise, it is evident that the manager's perseverance has at last been rewarded ; that he has picked up the right reef, and opened an important block of ground. Just-in-Time.—The manager has started a rise in the north section of tho mine, which he expects will enable him to cut a good run of gold, worked to advantage in the upper level. The drive going south, toward the rich shot of gold which gave the company so great an impetus, has been stopped for the present, as the limited num ber of hands employed does not permit of tlfe manager carrying on this work as well as opening up the northern block, which he esteems as being highly promising, and worthy of immediate attention.

lona.—Excellent looking quartz is coming to hand containing very promising indica tion for gold.
