Breaking and Entkrinß.— Richard Bell and Robert Gibson were arraigned upon an indictment charging them with breaking and entering a store at Kohukohu, near Hokianga, in August last, and stealing property belonging to Albert Gibling.— Prisoners pleaded guilty.—His Honor, in passing sentence, said, as this appeared to be their lirst oil'enoe, and their object in entering the store to got beer, lie would only pass upon them a lenient sentence, viz., imprisonment for twelve calendar months.

Indecent Assault.—William Burns, an old man nearly 70 yoavs cf age, was arraigned upon an indictment charging him with having committed an indecent assault upon Lena Cecil on the 17th of July.—Prisoner pleaded not guilty.—Mr Williamson opened the ease for the prosecution, and briotly enumerated the particulars of the assault.— i'licebo Cecil, wife of James Cecil, of Chapol stroet, Auckland, deposed that she was the mother of the child Lena Cecil. On the 17th July Mrs Jenkins called to her and made a statement which induced her to go to tho closet ; eho found it fastened inside: she burst it open ; she fancied she heard her child's voico—in fact, 3ho knew '.t was Lena's voico. Tho old man had the child on his kneo, and from the state of his clothing she was convinced that something was wrong; ho came out, and was com mencing to run avvfly ; she thrashed him with a stick; he cried out, " There, there, that's enough;" he then ran away, and she gavo information to the police; found him sitting on a stone in Durham-street; he said sho and the police had a down upon a poor old man, and offered her 5s to lot him go. He was arrested.—Amelia Jenkins, wife of Herbert Jenkins, grocer, deposed to seeing prisoner pull the child into the closet: she informed Mrs Cecil; tho child seemed very much frightened.—Charles Bede Andrew deposed that he waj a schoolmaster in Hobson street; ho saw tho prisoner on the day in question ; ho was going through a private way, botweon two houses; he had no business there ; lie was about to order him back, when prisoner complained that he was suffering in the stonmch; the child was a few yards behind him; saw him go into tho closet; presently ho saw Airs Cecil beating tho old man round the yard.—Constable Timothy Carroll arrested the prisonor on tho charge, and cautioned him in tho usual manner.—Pria oner said he was very sorry for what he had done, and would repent for it. Prisoner made a few remarks to tho jury, partly ad mitting the ofi'enee, at least so far as laying hands upon tho little girl.—His Honor re viewed tha evidence, and said it could not b3 presumed that the child could have con sented, sho being too young to understand. It was for tho jury to consider whether tho eridenco was sutiicicnt to ostablish an md d scant assi alt, or merely a common assault. —The jury found the prisonor guilty of a common assault.—His Honor deferred son-

tenco.

(Left sitting.)

NEW ZEALAND TIMBER.

An Unfavourable Report.

Gkeat indignation prevails in shipping circles owing to an unfair and unfavourable report concerning tho timbers of the North Island of New Zealand which nppenrs in tho annual report of the Otago Marine Underwriters' Association for 1882-3. One portion of tho roporfc, which is written by James Ure Russell, marine surveyor, reads as follows :—" New Zealand Timbor.—From long experience it has been patent to me that the timber of this island is quite un suitable for the construction of vessels, and I am now under tho improssion that the kauri and pohutukawa of the North Island, though much superior to our timber, are noi entitled to rank as highly as they do for shipbuilding purposes, or to hold the position assigned to them in table A of Lloyd's Rules, where pohutukawa is classed with blue gum, red gum, jarrah, and other timbers known to be almost imperishable ;. and the kauri with pitch pine, Oregon pine, and other timbers, with which, in the point of durability, kauri is not to bo compared. I except Huon pine, of which I have had no experience. I nave been led to make these remarks chiefly by the condition in which I found tho timbers and planking of the Tauranga and Jesaio Niccol before either vessel was ten years old, and I can see no reason why they should bo exceptional cases. I hare been requosted to report on this subject to the Committee of Lloyd's Register.—(Signed) James Ure Russell, Marino Surveyor."

Meeting of Shipbuilders and Shipowners.

An important meeting of shipbuilders and Bhipownerg was held at Mr Waymouth's office, ScherfFs Buildings, this afternoon, for the purposo of dealing with tho report referred to above. There wore present: Messrs J. Waymouth (presiding), C. Bailey, A. Henderson, R. McKay, Sims (of Sims and Brown), Bigelow, and Niccol. \ Mr Henderson submitted tho following resolution: — "We have read witn regret a copy of Captain Russell a report on Dtho timber of the North Island, Now Zealand, as applied to shipbuild ing purposes. Captain Russell thinks that tho qualities of pohutakawa and kauri have been over-estimated at Lloyd s. Tho report cites two instances to show tho unsuitability of our timber, viz., the schoo ners Jessie Niccol and Tauranga. In refer ence to tho last-named vessol, tho report is at fault, inasmuch as the Tauranga is 20 years old, not 10, as state J. With tho first case, we are not sufficiently acquainted to speak, but we are prepared to prove that the general condition of vessels built in the North Island affords abundant proof of tho suitability for shipbuilding purposes of tho timber in question. We append a list of vessels built of pohutakawa frame and kauri planking that lire in a goodstato of preservation at thepresenttime:—Moa.brig, 34 year 3of age jjCdumbia, schooner, 11 years of age; Cui'a, schooner, 18 years ; Queen, sohooner, IS years; Water Lily, cutter, 18 years; Gazelle, cutter, 18 years; Saucy • Lass, schooner, '20 years ; Swallow, schooner, 25 years ; Mary, schooner, 30 years, and Triad, cutter, 30 years. The frame of tho ketch Tiiit: .ta,thiity jLi* r * nf «rrn in vnt. TWrfecfrlv BOUlld.

Mr McKay said he saw the brig Moa stripped in dock about eighteen months ago, when she was "as sound as a bell." Mr Sims said that some blue gum built in tho brig M«a was found to have decayed, whilo the kauri and pohutakawa was quite sound.

Mr Niccol said that the cutter Polka, built by himself in 1545, is at present trading in Onehunga. He also furnished a list of old Auekland«built vessels still :'n existence, as follows: — Triad, cutter, launched 185S ; Pilot, cutter, 185G ; Mary, cutter, 1851 ; Henry, cutter, 18G1; Atlantic^ schooner, 1860; Rose, cutter, 1860 ; Jolly Miller, cutter, 1858; Mary Ann, cutter, 1858 ; Jessie Kelly, schooner, IS6'5.

It was also pointed out by Mr C. Bailey and others that the schooner Colonist, 18 years ago, is now perfectly sound, and that the cutter Morning Light, 20 years old, was opened out by Messrs Sims and Brown two years ago, and proved quite sound, while the cutter Rose waa also opened out two years ago and found to be sound. With reference to tho Jessie Niccol (re ferred to by Captain Russell), Mr Niccol, who built that vessel, stated that the only reason he could give for the timber being decayed (if such was really the case) was that the vessel had sustained unusual knocking about, causing leakage, which had not been attended to in time.

Mr Bigelow reported that about ten years ago lie had bored the brig Moa, according to directions from Messrs Owen and Graham. He put the augur into every place which was likely to be faulty. With the exception of one timber, all wore found to be perfectly sound. Mr Waymouth suggested that an effort should be made to get an authentic °tato ment with reference totho opening out of the Moa at Onehunga, when the bluo gum was found decayed, while thcJAuckland timber was in a good state of preservation. The examples already given were sufficient, and only required to bo verified. It was agreed that Mr Waymouth should draw up a report,including tho facts stated above, with other authoritative facts, to be submitted to another meeting to bo hold at 2 p.m. on Friday ; report to bo .signed by shipbuilders and sont to Lloyd's Register of Shipping. The meeting then adjourned.
