PilnctßJ-street, to Shorlland atreet.-Mr Jamea Kner3H ap-1 pea-elfor appiiom?, and made the apDliotion I under the 92 section ot the Act.—Mi Thomson said this wasrather a peonltar c v"1; it was the transfer ot a Ik id: ) from one place to another, from PUncess-stree* to what In ksown as the ProvJacLl Boarding-home, ShoHl&nd-Etr.st Tho hon°o was sofflaiently loomy for an hotel, and as come of the rooma were larg^ they might In divided, and, with some expense, the housa might be convert'd into an hotel, considerable) Blteratlons, however, would ts necasaary. There were no clojeta to tho honse, and ihjeo at prec:nt mr.de nae ot were on Mrs Biacfemnn'B preitiieel!, and in a very d)'apldafed condition.

Ha wonld snsKest that that before granting tho transfer tho Bench would visit the premises and judge for them selves. He c»n3idered that every provision should be made for the accommodation of tho public The charman said it was the intention ol the commissioners to visit the hotels, and to act strictly and severely in cases of Sunday trading and breaches of the Act. Mr Russell Slid it was Mr Glecson'a intention to ma^e every needful alteration, and ho felt Bnre that Mr Thomson's wishes would bo car ried out to the letter. Mr Thomson referred to the increase of Sunday trading which re quired greater vigilance on tho part of tho police, and -wElch he would endeavour as much as possible to suppress. The Bench had no doubt but Mr Gleeson would maintain his stood repu tation as an hotel keeper j but Mr Smith was a stranger. Mr Kuasell having ropiied, the Bench granted the removal of the transfer, subject to tho approval of the Inspector. This was all the business.

CHORAL S.CIETY.

(To the Editor).

Bin ■ I am a newcomer into New Zealand, but have joined the Choral Society as an honorary member. I attended tbe concert last night, and was much astonished at the excellence of the performance, but suffered greatly from the presence of the drums and brass instruments right in front of the orchestra. Unfortunately I was near the froDt on the right-hand side, aad had the full benefit of them. The management (possibly composed of men who have beea long in the colony) should be informed that the drums and brass instruments are m- Tariably placed at the extreme back of tbe orchestra, behind the chorus and alongside the organ. I venture to htpe that tbe management will do tbe tame here, for it is a great pity that Buch excellent per formances should be so greatly marred by an inadvertion.—Yours, &c, Honorary Mhibke. ,

There was another good attendance at, the cirpus last evening, when the adver tised programme was gone through yery successfully. The property elephant especially is well worth seeing. It will be brought out at the performance this eve* Ping.

Messrs Carbines and Taylor will hold a sale of household furniture at the residence of Mr Salter, North Shore, next to the Phurch, at one o'clock to-morrow.

In response to a challenge by the B Battery of Artillery, Dunedin, the A Bat tery of Auckland and the !> aval Artillery Corps entered for a carbine contest at 2CO, 300, 400 and 500 yards, five shots at each range. The scores made by the ten com petitors selected to represent each corps were;-Naval Artillery, 585; A Battery, 634. It remains to be seen fcp.w thesa figures compare with the scores made in other parts of the colony.

He was strongly inclined to mako tlioro p:oplu pay the expenses incurred since the opcn*ng of the case were it not for tho trouble and expeme which «ould havo to be incurred in carrying such into effect.

SIR WILLIAM JERVOIS AT INVERCARGILL.

(BY TBLKGKAPH—PKESS ASSOCIATION.)

INVERCARGILL, tbU day. His Excellency the Governor, after opening the new Garrison Hall yesterday, inspected the field guns .and aimouries, and then passed on to the Western Reserve adjoining where a large concourse of schoolchildren, Foresters, Druids, aud the general public had assembled, Addresses were presented and responded to, after which His Excel lency visited the flower show and hospital, A most succcsful banquet was given in the Garrison Hall last night. In the course of an address in response to the toast of his health, the Governer said: "I cauuot tell you (and wbat 1 say is no figure of speech) how mucn I have bten surprised at what 1 have seen since I came to Southland. In my ignorance I had not the slightest idea that there was such a splendid town as that in which you now are. I recollect that when I wa3 in t-outh Australia my idea ot Invercargill was something of this sort. The southern part of the Middle Island, I pictured on my mind's eye as a table land, live or six hundred feet in length, with the Bluff at its end, having a few houses on the top, and with the dreariness of the scene occasionally enlivenedbyawreckatthobottom ofthcßlufF. (Laughterandapplause.) But 1 fiud that you have a town—a city- with streets as broad and as fine a town as Adelaide. I find magnificent buildings springing up all round. I find an enter prising community, and one which I ven ture to say will make magnificent citadel of this southern part of New Zealand." fiis Excellency, after speaking of the "grand harbour at the Bluff," said towards tho close of his remarks: "Hook upon Inver cargill as the centre of one the finest and richest districts of New Zealand, and that in the course of 25 years it will grow to an extent you scarcely calculate, that it will become a great place in connection with other countries and your own, and will increase in importance beyond anything now expected,"

The P.M.S.S. Co.'s City of New York, from i>an Francisco and Honolulu, had not been signalled up to a late hour this after noon, She may now be expected at any moment,

A very pleasing entertainment was given last night in the Baptist schoolroom by the members and friends of the Wellesley. street Baptist Temperance Society. £d' dresses were delivered by Messrs Brame and Poulton, solos were rendered by Misses Edgar, Owen and Massey, glee 3by the Frith family, and Kisses Douglas, Brame, Massey, and Messrs Kirkpatrick and Brame, and recitations by Misses Kose Smith, and Bessie Lampra. Mr Spurgeon occupied tbe chair during the evenißg. At the close of the entertainment, a number of persons signed the pledge.

The relations between Dr Mackellar, and the nuisea and patients at tiie Eospital are of a most unsatisfactory character. Serious complaints are made against the doctor by several female rursts, and also by the Head it'urse and Mation, all of -whom are understood to be about to resign. There are abo complaints about the treatment of patients. TUe whole of these and other matters are likely to form the subject of an enquiry by the sub-committee.

BOCCACCIO.

The second performance) of " Boccaccio," at the Theatre lloyai hut evening, was well patronised. The trifling defects we noted in tho initial porformauce had entirely disap peared, and all the solos and concerted pieces wero most successfully rendered. One plcasiDg portion of the peiformance is the representation of a ball at the ducal court of Florence, in which several of tho perfor mers glide through a stately minuet, "Boccaccio" will be repeated this even, ing, when Miss Leonora Simonscn, who has recovered from her recent indisposition, will appear in her original character of Faimotta. There should be a large turn-out of lover 3of music and burlesque to witness the last representation of thw really clever and amusing opera,

Since leaving Onohunga on Friday last, the s.s. Kowena hni made a special trip with about 50 excursionists from New Plymouth to Kawhia and back again. She left the flew Plymouth roadstead on Saturday at S p.m., and arrived off Kawhia at 5 o'clock next morning. Captain Scott reports having crossed tho bar at 6 a.m., and found three and a half fathoms of water on it with six fathoms inside, the tide at the time being noarly half ebb. After crossing tho bar, the vessel'stcamcd up abreast oi tho recently surveyed Government township, when the anchor was let go and the excursionists proceeded ashore, whero they were warmly welcomed by Hone Wetero and his followers, who bo towed on them an abundanco of fruit, consisting of peaches, apples, and grapes, besides a liberal supply of water and rock melons. A good deal of wheat of a very inferior quality has boon grown In the, district this season. This may be at tnbuted to the fact of tho aatives having been compelled to use the same class of seed year after year. The potato crop was also a failure, no doubt from the same cause. The excursionist}, hating traversed a goodly portion of the district, returned to the vestel in tbe evening, well satisfied with what they had £cen and of the futuro prospects of Kawhia. The Fowena loft on her return journey shortly after, and arrived again at the roadstead next morning,
