Great interest is being taken in this match, and there was a large number of spectators on the ground. The capt tin of the English team, the Hon, Ivo.

TAWHIAO'S VISIT TO WAI RARAPA.

The correspondent of the " New Zealand Times," writing from Te Ore Ore last Saturday says :—" Tawhiae and his paity cimped last night about 12 miles from Mas- j terton, and came on to Te Ore Ore this | (iatur day) morning. The party consisted ut 200 mounted men, A large number of the king's men went to tbe Te Ore Ore pah, close to Ruamahanga bridge, and stayed there for an hour or two. They were speedily joined by a large party of tne Wai« rurapa natives, who came trooping in on horseback, Soon alter 8 o'clock, a procession was fornt-d, making, with the local natives, over 3 0 Omen and women. A start was then made from Te Ore Ore, a mile further on. I fell into the ranks and went ou with the natives. Tbe procession was an imposing one. Many ot the natives had double b irrell .d guns, with which they kept up a contiuuci lusiilade. 'lhen by-aud by the t-Toee-St-n was met by a budy of women gaily dressed, aud with green verdure on (heir heads and bodie», who met Tawbuo with a dance and song of welcome, the proccs.ion halting while this wsb being performed. 'Ihe women danced and sung with ticuK-ndous vigour. Every fifty yards of the advauce there was another halt, when the som<s aud dances weie repeated. On entering tbe Te lire Ore pan, the procession formed into a hollow square, and there were many songs of wel come. There wns a laige meeiioc-house in the pah 120 feet long by 50 broad—the front of which was a peifeet marvel of native caivirig. Flags and banners were to be seen everywhere. The natives, paiticu lirly the women, wero dressed in their gayest and gaudiest apparel, nud things generally wore a festive air. There was abundance ot provisions, nnd the Walrarapa uatives addeel their conttibntions to the stock IVwbino is an oldish man, appar ently about 60. Bis face is somewhat mat, and not veiy intelligent. He is about sft 9in. in height, and is sparely built. He was dressed very shabbily in a rather cloudy sbitt and old black trousers and vest. Tawhiao has certainly by no means a kingly appearance. It is probable that Tawhiao will remain here (Te Ore Ore) for some days, and that there will be a good dpal of festivity,

THE CHINESE IN OTAGO.

Deportation of Corpses.

£ dditional particulars are to baud ot the "resurrcction"movementamongt_e Chinese in Otago, which shows that the inhabitants ot the province of Pon-Yu in Ch'na are the active instigators of the present movement. An accurate record has b.en kept of the date of death and piece of burial of Celestials belonging to each separate province of China, and their friends as a rule know exactly where to put their hand upon such of the remains as may have resisted the touch of time. Many ot the original inhabitants of Pon-Yu, however, have wandered far afield, and these it has been necessary to track to the place of their decease, and permission for disinter ment has been obtained from tho local authorities. Thus, from almost tbe length and breadth of the colony the defunct Pan- Yuites have been and are still being slowly gathered iv at the cost of much expense and much labour, too unsavoury to dwell upon. From Lawrence, Waikaia, and a number of country districts we hear that tbe Chinese resurrectionists are diligently at work. Ut Is a general custom among the people to place certain objects in the coffins with their deceased friends, and as each fresh assortment of human remains is brought to light, .an eager and almost affectionate process of identification takes place. The bodies are then placed In fresh' coffins or boxes (as circumstances may re. quire), and forwarded to a place which has been prepared tor their reception pending shipment to China. As may naturally be ex pectcd,some difficulty has attended the prose cution of these operations, and it is to be feared that in some cases mistakes may even have occurred. The possibility of such a contretemps is especially suggested by the case of one Ah Chook, whose remains, if report speaks truly, were utilised forcer tain anatomical purposes at the University hero. The fact, cf tho University beitig mentioned as his last resting-place, how ever, fortunately suggested no ideas but tbose of ordinary burial to the minds of the resurrectionists, and to satisfy their natural anxiety the following rather amusing letter was addieased to the authorities by a well known solicitor whose services were retained in the matter : —

_ ho almond eyed bearer of this epistle has undertaken to achieve the translation of sundry defunct kinsman to the happy land of Pon-Yu, province of Canton. Some slumbered in the Northern and some in the Southern Cemetery, but they have all been "raised," and now lie (strongly bound in toak) awaiting their departure per sailing ship. But one of the band is missing, and h's brethren cannot leave him to languish alone iv the land of the barbarian. It is fondly fancied that he is "bellied" nt the University, but I more than snspect tbat his mortal remains have been sacri ficed ou the altar of science. Ho was known in the days of his flesh as Ah -book, and labouicd in his vocation as a peripatetic vendor of vegetables, humble but happy, with a pronounced taste for opium aud pntiy larceny. But de mortuis, &c. He is now a c_pper-coloured shade, haunting the purlieus of the University and the adjacent sewer in a fruitless search for the disjecta, or rather tbe dissecta membra, of his whilom self. Pray hand over to boaror as much of the la'.o ivlr Chook as is stilt ou the premises, ana for mercy's Bake malu.aiu the pious iiciioa of tho "DeHial" at the University,

P.S.—I miy add that the bones aro es« scntiaK and funher, that the avm-age Chimman is not an anatomist. Verb sap.

Whether or no Iho seekers in this instance have been provided with any bones answer ing to their ideas of their deceased frieod we are not in n position to say, but the abovo affords an exmnple of some of the difficulties with which the indefatigable Celestials have to contend. From the Dun edin Cemeteries alone some 37 bodies li,vo been exhumed, and thi_ number is largely increased by the Dumetous arrivals from the country, and will yet receive consider able further additions,

PRISON PUNISHMENTS.

Ref»_R-ING to the cecond return ou this subject, which has recently been prime, y the Wellington "Post" rays:-"It fives simply the proceed:ngs of the year ISSi, but tho;e a-e of a sufficiently cuu v character. In the first place, -it is m. : noticeable tbat the Dunedin Gaol sg,.n ' stands prominently distinguished lot ti,e perpetration of the infamous practice o! de taining pii.oners iv gaol witnonta f«ia trial, rfter the expiration of the teim of. imprisonment to which they were legally seutenced after a fair trial in open coun. . This scandalous outrage on the liberty i tbe subject was committed In no few, _ - than twenty different occasions during list year, the laat for which return, have btta made up. Messrs J. Loganand J. Brownar tbe Visiting Justices who distinguished themselves by thus furthering this syMeui of white slavery for which the gaol una!

"W.A.," three months. Several oilie.' had an extra month each. The only 6 Let \ prison in the colony v/hcro this objeetiiu-,ij able course was adopted was tbat of Aud. laud, but in ODly one case there. In i.a>7' in.tanco the prisoner, "R.J.T.," fi_,i[ "writing a report against Gaol Surg,-- v j (surreptitiously)'1 was aententcd by Mr j; Batstow, (he Visidug Justice, to '.'six!,! weeks' additional imprisonment, or fi.cj i £10." fu all other cases, tlie Ai punishmeuts inflicted were oi the | lir.per cbaracler, as applied to pri«'on 3 offences, consisting not in lengthening lh«., ij term of;incarceration to which the pris.iiir 3 stood condemned, but in increasing tie I scveiity of that incarceration by depth.-.'.., 1 tion of some personal comforts, or by to F administration of direct bodily pain or '; incouvenience. The vast majority of pun-; : . Ishments consisted iv deprivation of pes''' ' sonal comforts. Solitwy confinement,'' bread-and-water diet, prohibition oi smoking, derivation of lamplight" or,__ : bedding, confinement In dark cell,'&. The offences thus punished are in most cases of the usual order of prison misdeed's. ;. Idleness, insolence, and disobedience .fit.... f. amongst the most frequent MeKfs entered.

One was " calling Mr Halignw { a." Is it wrong to call anyone "a?'' ■ | ?'' And is that a common mode 7 | vitujeration? We confess it has n>_ j' hitherto come under our own notice, but S we can quite believe it may be a v«y : -. | dreadful term of reproach. A coami i» ciime in the Lyttelton Gaol seems to In !

This is a regular contmdi-jiy Then we find two prisoners convicted oh very sinister combined offence, the one | "having in posseision and passing to »'; fellow-prisoner a stout steel needle,'' «| the other of '' receiving from fellow-prisoner a stout steel needle." One Is disposed fa., consider what they intended to do with tte implement. Another Is less obvious ia* criminality, "having concealed <®Af person a large sheet of brown paper. ,» It wicked to conceal large sheets of mm paper?
