When Members of Parliament deacend to the use of personal and unparliamentary language, they must expect to have their conduct criticised in unsparing style; therefore there is every justification for freely canvassing the discreditable episode which interrupted the business ot the House of Representatives yesterday after noon. On higher grounds such a scene calls for comment —on the ground of jealousy for tbe reputation of Parliament, and a desire to prevent the House becoming a sort of legislative bear-garden, i o un derstand yesterday's incident, it is necessary to glance at what led up it. When Major Atkinson's Property Tax Bill was under consideration on Tuesday evening, Mr Dargaville made an extraordinary upeccb, fall of wild invective, reckless mis-state ment, and furious bombast —in fact, full of Mr Dargaville. Among his accu sations were such indictments aat.ose: — He chaigcd a member of the present Government with grave political fraud by tho passing of the Loan Consoli dation Act of 1867 ; said that Government was controlled by a money 'Ting" in Auckland, of which the Colonial Treasurer was tbe tool; that Government perpe trated "jobs" to favour the Bink of New Zealand; and that tbe Premier and his partner, Mr Thomas hnsscll, received £10,000 from that banking company in return for political services. As a sample of his mis-statements may be cited the assertion that colonial loan companies escape taxation under the Property Tax. To this virulent speech, the Colonial Treasurer made a most effec tive reply, courting the fullest enquiry at tt the legislation of 1867 (though what is to be gained by going back for sixteen years no one can imagine), and expoiing the erroneous nature of Mr Dargaville's statements. Despite his "wrlpgiing," Mr Dargaville could not escape the crushing weight ot this retort, and his bitterness wasdoubtless heightened on seeing that he had utterly failed to lead off a debate or to affect in the slightest degree the progress of the bill, which was agreed to be read a second time by a large majority. Returning to the attack, Mr Dargavillo yesterday gay* notice of motion to appoint a committee to enquire into his accusations against the Premier, and it was while at the table of the House for that purpose that Major Atkin son made a remark to him which drew from him the retort lond enough to be heard by the whole House— "You're a bully," or words to that eflVct, Naturally, the incident caused some excite ment in the House—Mr Dargaville being about the last man that anyone would have expected to complain of " bullying " and there being no apparent provocation for his remark, as the Treasurer's communication to him was pri vate, or at least heard only by those in the immediate vicinity. Neither of the participants in the affair can be wholly defended; but of the two tbe mem ber for Auckland Went makes decidedly the poorest show. Coming after tho incident et the previous evening, his conduct has all the appearance of being spiteful, mean-minded, and small-boyish in the extreme Mr Dargaville Is never tited of telling that he has been a banker, and he is never more at home tban when he is itrutting with inflated bosom and posing as the saviour of the country from financial ruin. id is yesterday's conduct, therefore, may well force people to the conclusion that the petty^ pique of the ex-banker wa* equally prominent with the baffled ambition of the would-be Colonial Treasurer, in that unworthy and nngentlemanly exhibition of temper which he gave yeeterday. It is rumoured that the subject of the " scene " is to be re-opened in the House ; but, on the whole, it had better be allowed to drop into merited oblivion. To prevent similar outbursts in fnture is a very simple matter, An inflated bladder, when sat upon, will burst with a loud noise. In fnture, therefore, a safe precautionary measure is not to " sit on" the member for Auckland West, but have a pin bandy and gently prick him to allow tbe wind to escape.

That James Carey has mat frliii nt« death _a| the.l»aPJ»gfzyotuissary of tho outraged " Invincibles," is now only too apparent, and the fact is neither very comforting to loyal people nor flattering to tho sentiment of the Irish people. It is not re-assuring to reflect that the dreaded secret society which planned tho assassination of Lord Cavendish and Mr Burke has still sufficient vitality and funds to execute vengeance on one of its traitorous members. It ia not complimentary to the Irish people that tbey should thus mark their hatred of a particular informer, for it is notorious that ninety-nine out of every hundred of them would have been as ready as Carey was to save his neck from the hangman's noose by putting several other necks into it. Commenting on the position occupied by the Hibernians in the United States, the "Daily Telegraph" recently said :—•' The Irish herd together and remain Irish to the end, goiag through the same dreary round of oratorical rubbish, futile conspiracy, cowardly plotting, collection of money, and cultivation of treachery. Where half-a-dozen Irishmen are gathered, ono lives by the propagation of what is called national sentiments, and a second hopes to earn a reward from the English Government for betraying the secrets of tbe group," Tho savage demonstrations of joy •wbich have been made in Dublin and else where over tho murder of Carey reveal the

lo west depth of degradation of the moral senac and at the same time supply a significant comineatary on formpr professions. After the terrible trtgedy of the Phcenix Park, the Homo Rule members of Parliament were effusively ready to disclaim all con nection with the crime and to disavow nil sympathy with it on behalf of the Irish people. Well, the authorities have suc ceeded in punishing the perpetratoiu of tho deed thanks principally to Carey's evidenci-; aud the Irish people show their sympathy by " orderiug" a cowardly Wretch to minder him, aud by danciug and yelling round bonfires on receiving the news of tho execution of their orders. From first to last, tho Phcenix Park tragedy is one of the foulest of the many blots on Frin's eßCutc!ieou, showing the dark side of tbe Irish character—the ferocity, treachery, and savagery of a people whom poets and others have (not without reason) lauded as gentle, chivalrous, witty, imaginative, generous, and hospitable,

Tho business at the Police Court this morning, before Mr Prime, J.P., consisted of three cases. Matthew Hiuch was ilntd 20* for strikirjg Timothy Macdonnell in the eye last night in Vulcaii Lane. Ihe charge of failing to support their mother, preferred against Charlus and Tuomas wakes, was postponed until Monday. The young woman Eunice Yamner, charged with robbing Patrick Phelau of his gold watch and jewellery, was dismissed, as the prosecutor did not appear, and Sergeant White having no evidence to olfsr.

A cable despatch published by us yester day conveyed the information that no lower than forty candidates have appeared in answer to the advertisement calling for ap plications for the post of Piofes«or of Mathematics in Auckland University. These will be dealt with by Sir F. Dillon Bell, the Agont-Ueneral in London, in con junction with tbe gentlemen chosen by him to decide upon the merits of the applican s. A letter to the Governiceiu from Sir F. l>. Bell states that on learning of tue death of Professor Walker he offered the appoint ment to Mr W. S. Aldie, who would have been chosen originally had he been able to leave England early in ISB3. That gentle man, however, declined tho oiler, and henoe the Agent-Goneral again resorted to advertising.

Our elderly friend on the opposite side of the strett, with her usual accuracy, reports the proceedings of the Devonport Literacy »«sociatioa at their meeting last evening, There are, however, some few errors in It, For instance, the paper by Mr Wickttns wan not read, but po*tponcd until next Monday; no Mr Parsons was present at all; and the prosident (Rev. J. Bates) U notiW, but absent from the colony. With these trifling drawbacks, tho "Herald's" report is a correct one,

Er-Detectiye Sullivan was released from Mount Eden Gaol last evening, synipa thiaing friends having paid the costs of the recent charge and become sureties for his good conduct for the next six mouths.

Messrs P, A. Philips arid D. B.* Mc- Donald presided at ihe K.M. Court this morning, but tho sitting was very brief, only the undefended cases in the claims were Ic-m than £20 beiug dealt with. The remainder were adjourned till Thursday next, when it is hoped Mr ft'eth Smith will be able to resume his duties.

The action brought by Manders Scott, of Wellington, against the Northtrn Steam ship Company tor £BUO compeueation iv respect of the jewellery robbery on board tho Wellington sorno time »po, is likely to come to grief. An argument took place beforo Mr Justice Gillies yesterday as to whether tho defence filed was a valid oue, Mr Theo. Cooper for the plaintifl arguing that it was not, and Mr E, Hesketh (fir the defendants) that it was. His Honor decided in tho defendant'? favour, and from his ex pressions of opinion the action is now likely to be dropped.

It will be seen from au advertisement io another column that on Satuiduy afternoon our football pUyers will have an oppor tunity of tryiug ttuir mettle with a team frarn Tauranga. As the visitors are repined to be very strong and fast plajers, there i evcry reason to belUve that the game will be tho most interesting of tho season, and one that i« sure to be a source of excite ment to the onlookers, both sides cout»in ing individual players who bavo long borno a good reputation among local "kickists," Each team ha» bceu undergoing active training, and will there fore appear on the field in tho very pink of condition, and each with a determination to carry off the victory. Considerable ox pense is involved in connection with the match, and we trust that tho attendance of the public will be numerous, as the low charge of 1« for admittance to the ground is such that all can well afford to pay, and thereby show that their sympathy and patronage can always be secured when a first-class match is promised.

It i« intended to hold a aeries of revival tervices in connection with tho Presbyterian Church of Auckland. The first will be at «t.

To tbe Editor: Sir,—ln reply to "Londoner's" question in your issue of yesterday, I can inform him that tbe Church of St. Peter, London Docks, was built mainly through tlie instrumentality of " Father " Lowdcr, as he wan called by bis parishioners. On the deaih of that gentleman, the parish was temporarily in charge of the senior curate, now, I balieve, incumbent of St, Alban'g, Holborn, and then the Vev, A. H. Mackonochie, formerly of that parish, was appointed to the cure, as probably the only man in the diocese competent to carry on the work Father Lowdcr was doiDg, with whom he had formerly been associated in this East London Mission. This is the Hoy. a, H. Mackonochie who has recently been not only suspended, but is now under sentence of deprivation, a sentence which he will probably treat in the same manner ashehasbenu in tbe habit of treating all tbe judgments issuing from the Court of my LordPeniiance.—l am, &c, M,

The " Bib c Standard,^ under tbe cartful editorship of Mr Geo. A. Brown, continues its progressive and widening course. The contents of tie August issue display no falling off in religious interest aud vigoious Writing. The opening article dsals with "The Life Everlasting," stud ded over with texts in relation thereto. " Perilous Times," "Logic and Honesty," aiul " J haological Contusion," possess healthy taougut, while tbe half column on ' " Gossip " is worthy of close attention. Anoiher brief eketßh, "Make it Short," might be taken iuto consideration by some of otu local speakers, who love to hear their own voices in public meetings, for truly " the man who wearies the audience and absorbs an undue proportion of time, needs to be instructed in the simple ele ments of commoH seme." The " Church Mews" is encouraging, and shews that the views enunciated by tha "Standard" are spreaditg in Auckland and in sur rounding localities.

Mr Phelan failed to appear at the Police Court this morning, and consequently the young woman charged with depriving him of his gold wutch, iing», etc., waß dis missed. Mi6S Yarunor had made up her mind to keep the articles mentioned iv the information, and, had iho ca»o gono on, would have shown that they were presents which prosecuior, from time to time, had made to hi r. Tho fucts, had they come out, would have furnished material for a story of love and jealuusy.

She looked calmly into his face, and told him she held him in high esteem for his gentlemanly character, but the could not love him so well as she could the sailor man. bhe thought, moreover, that there was too great a disparity between them in years, which would interfere with their future happiness. Mr Phelan at ouce bauded her over to the police, and sub sequently rfpented of the rash act.

To the Kditor : Sir,—l se2 the question of the Lock Hospital comis up for discus sion agaiu iv tho City Couucil to-night, It ia to be hoped our worthy Councillors will decide not lo misspend nuy more of honest ratiptyers' money on such a qucs lioiiaole object (to protect licentious men iv the voluntary c >muiisiion of selfish sin from the natural consequences of th»ir folly.) '1 litre are some peraons who do not hcsitntc to stigmatiso tho outlay of £1,200 for the purpo.es of the CD. Act as nothing lesx than municipal robbery, aud say thut tbo Mayor or Councillor who would put his hnn:l in the publicfpuiscand takb out money for such an object justly deerves soveu or fourteen years in Mount Kdtn Gaol. I think tho best thing to be done, as tho uiono\ 13 spent and the build ing up, will be to disposo of it to tho Gov ernment, to bo use t in connection with the Uaol, or to the Uospial authorities, who, now that thny will have fund< at command from the Cosiley bequest, might tako it off tho haud» of tin; Council aud utilise it as a lock hospital, apart from the really obuoxious pio.vinion uf the CD. Act. I can assure the Council that tho agitation against this iniquitous ■ ct is by no mcaus dead, and it will fprcad throughout the length and breadth of Uic colour until such an utterly abominable measure is repealed.

'Ihe Dargaville-AtMrnon Episode.

Ko the scene between Mr Dargaville nnd Major Atkinion yesterday after noon, the salient point* of which I previously telegraphed, Mr Dargaville states that the offensive words used by the Treawrer sottp voce (at least they i could not be heard in tho Press gallery) weie i "I will not allow you to carry a motion in that form. Your conduct now 1" of a piece with your conduct last night. IVlijor Atkinson presumably meant that Mr Djrgaville was v»rying the subject-matter \sfthe enquiry he wished held. lam not conversant with circumstances under which it ii alleged £10,000 WBto paid by the Bank of hew Zealand to Messrs Whitaker and Kuasell, but it is understood that the de fence, if such It c»n be called, will be that tho £10 000 were paid to Thomas Ku-soll, for services in London In connection with the shifting of a large account at Home fiom one bank to another, Sir Geo. Grey intends bringing up the mater of the scene between Mr Dargaville and Major Atkinson, He holds the latter to bo iv the wrong. The "Times" this morning " goes for " Dargaville.

Pastoral Bill.

Tho principle of Sir Geo. Grey's Pastoral Bill' is this :—All pastoral lands will be disposed of in small runs to carry 5,000 ulic-sp ; they aro not to be sold by auction, but offered at an assessed .rental. If there are more than two applicants, to be decided by ballot. This recognises the equal right of everyone, money giving no preference. Residence of the proprietor is not required, so that any person can make a imtdl pasto ral family on which ho may retire, or locate hia property. To enforce reaidenco of the proprietor in distant parts of the country, is only to open runa to shepherds and persons of that class.

These will bo sub«equently exumined in accord, sneo with Hire's rules.

The Minister for Kailivavs.

Government is bitterly opposed to Mr Wright as Ministor of Knilwuyi. With reference to the rumours regarding Mr Oliver's elovation to that position it would have the effect of disposing of variont rival claim", while it would not increase the actual numerical strength of the Ministry ; and, moreover, it wonld b« simply replacing at the head of the department a Ministor under whose former regime tome valuable reforms were effected. It Is also thought that it would bo hardly fair to piss over Mr Oliver in favour of Mr Wright, seeing that he ha* so long given the Cabinet the benefit of his services without salary, more especially as the proposed new portfolio is one which ho prtctlcally held formerly in connection with that of public works.

'Ihe Land lax Motion,

If Sir George Grey gets an opportunity he will bring on his land tax motion to-day 1 The Murdered Warder at nelson.

House of Representatives.

WEDNESDAY,

Ventilation of the Mouse,

At the afternoon sitting, the Committee on the ventilation of the House brought up a report recommending that £500 be placed on the Supplementary Estlma tea for that purpose. An hour's discussion ensued, the Minister of Works being blamed by many members for the draughty condition of the House.

Mr FISH (irrepressible as usual) said if Government could not got competent archi tects in Wellington, they should go to tho metropolis of tho colony, where they could get ekilkd architects. The report was eventually referred to Government for con eideration.

Mr AiiLWRiGHT subsequently drew some thing akin to a groan ot rage from Otago members by 'oterring to the ota^o dock as a "toydocV

Surrender of insurance Policies. I Mr BARKON, la asking the question re \ giving policy-holders the option of surren- j Bering their current policy at any time, i receiving in lieu thereof a paid-up policy, • Bald that at present many were retarded j from insuring from the feir that adversity j might prevent them contiuuing to pay the | premium?, and so they would lose their ; policies, i Major Atkinson said that Government! did not give what was kDown as absolute . insurance, the present system was really j of more advantage to insurers than any | system of absolute insurance, ' Keplying to Mr Pykb, Mr Dick said that! it was not truo that defective weights and ! measure? were seat from ull parts of the j colony to Wellington for adjustment. j Mr DiCKobtained leave to intro luce the ; Fire and Marine Insurance Companies Bill.

Bible-Heading in Schools Mr GbkkN moved that the Minister of. Education be requested to obtain through the various educadon boards of the colony a return Bhowing the number of parents throughout the colony having children at sending district, normal, and high school?, who are in favour of portions of the Bible being read daily in such schools, &nd the number who are opposed to such Bible* reading, that for this purpose the education boards isßue through the various school committees, boardt of governors, etc., cir culers in the form hereto appended, to be distributed to all parents or guardians hav ing children attending the schools ; such returns to be obtained not later than 30th November, 1883, and same to be classfied, printed; and distributed to members of boh douses of the Legislature not later than 30th April, ISB4. Mr Joyok movod an amendment to the tffecc that after the words "portion of Bible," the words be aided, "commencing at the first chapter of Gene-is and proceed ing through the Book;" and that after the words " that for this purpose " there be inserted "that a haliot be taken," the remainder of the motion being struck nut.

Messrs SHEPHERD, DAUUIi. SWANSON, and others spoke against the motion. Mr SWAsiSON strongly objected to the motion generally, and specially because it sought to pry iuto personal religious beliefs. He said bin religious belief was a matter between ninuelf and his God, Mr Fulton supported the motion. Mr Grees, with the consent of Mr Joyce, who had moved the amendment, asked leave to withdraw ilie motion, giving aa hii reason his belief that the majority of the House was agaiost it, and he was averse to waste of time. Mr WhitaKkk objected to the with drawal of the motion, at he thought a vote should be come to, to show the country the feeling of the House ou tbe matter. The amendment was withdrawn, bat the House refused to permit of the withdrawal of the motion, on its being put to the vote, it was lost on the voices, its supporters declining to call for a division. Wages of Asylum Attendants. Mr u'CALLAdIUN inoYed "That in tho opinion of this flouso the wagea paid to attend*nts at lunatic asylums aro in sufficient, considering the onerous and trviM duties they are called ou to per- fu. ~ ~ ~.L . ._~-. j -rr»-"—Kl«|t~yinii«i«l—».. -thoBC paid to gaol warders and day laborers, and are, therefore, not calculated to secure an efficient body of well-trained attendants.

Mr Tole seconded, saying that in Auck land Asylum the attendants were very badly paid indeed. Mr DICK said that the attendants were not badly paid in comparison with work men.

The debate was interrupted by the 3.30 adjournment, The evening sitting was devoted to private members'business. Mr Ivkss's Koads Through Private Lands Bill and Mr J, C. BROWN'S Draiuage of Minos Bill were, after a short debate, read a second time.

Gaming and Lotteries. Mr SHAW, in moving the second reading of the Gaming and Lotteries Amendment Bill, said tbe measure was designed^ to remedy a manifest defect in the existing Act, as it permitted newspapers to advertise sweeps. Mr SHEKHA.N supported the bill in a humorous speech, in the course of which he s«id though he owned a racehorse once, he had never wagered more than a hat in bis life, fie expressed a belief that totalizators did more harm than book makers, and unless Mr Shaw would agree to amend the bill in committee in the direction of abolishing the totalisator, he would vote against tue bill ac tbe third reading. Mr Pbteie pointed out that tho bill woald not prevent the circulation in the colony of newspapers containing advertise ments regarding uweeps. Mr Brack UK, in opposiDg the bill, faid if it became law it would have tho effect of handicapping such papers aa tbe "Aus tralasian," which would be allowed to publish sweep adverriaemeuts, as against papers owned in New Zealand, which would noc be .allowed to publish such advertise ments,

Mr PiKE supported the bill, and spoke in favour of the abolition of the totalinator.

Mr HOBBS mid if he stood alone ho would support the second reading. Ho might be called a "goody goody," but he did uot care ; ho had travelled lar and had seen the tvil cfTeccs of gambling. Mr Bhrimski made a point of Mr Hobbs's deal by remarking that a change had come over the eccno since last ses.inn, One member (Mr Green) had lost hit conscience, and here they had a member who bad found one.

Mr FirzaEuALD opposed the bill. Mr Shaw, in replying, asserted that there appeared tobo a good-reprcsentaiion of news paper men In tb» House as Bhown by the remarks. With regard to the second clause in the foil', rendering it illegal to advertise sweeps, ho wai not prepared to insert a clau»o in tho bill with the view of aboli.h ing tho totalisator, but if the House were in favour of such a clause, any other member <)"uld move to Insert it, and he would not od'ur any opposition. The Houso divided, and- tho bill was thrown ont by 33 to 25. Mr Tole movod the second ro&ding of the Juries Act Amendment. In doing so, he said the grand jury system did uot act Sfttiifftctorily. He made an excellent speech iv support of the measure.

Mr CONOLLT was not entirely convinced of the' propriety of abolishing grand juries, and opposed the bill. Mr Fitzgerald supported the measure. He said no doubt, in tloieß pist, the grand jury had been a beneficial institution, bat it had nothing to recommend it in the colony at tho present time. Mr Holmes supported the bill, and the Houso then adjourned for supper. The bill was ultimately read a second time. HaUivay and Other Employes Bill. Aftor tho supper adjournment, Mr SKDDON moved the second reading of tho Kailway and Other Employe's Bill. Mr Johnston snid the measure was not an advisable one, as, instead of increasing the importance and permanency of their workshops, they should be checked, and the work done there as much as possible distributed amongst private euterpriso. Messrs Joyce, Feldwick, Harris, Bracken, Levsstam, and W. White spoke in support of the bill Sir G. Grey bore testimony to the civility aud efficiency of tho railway staff in this colony. Ha sympathised with the objects of tho bill, but was doubtful if the proposal could be carried out this session. Meantime he hoped the second reading would be agreed to. Mr Holmes could not see how employes of Government should be put on a better footing than other employe's. Subject to amendments, ho would suppmt the bill. The House divided : Ayes, 22 ; noes, 14. The bill was read a second time, and the Hoii'c rose at ten minutes past one this morning.

ALBANY, Wednesday,

The sunim&iry of English news by the Suez mail, dated London, June 29, gives particulars of the collision between the ."hips Hurunui ai d Waitara in the English Channel on the 23rd. The catastrophe was remarkable for its awful suddenness to both vessels. Thn Waitara sank, at the longest estimate, in font minutes. The momentary interlocking of tiie yariis of the two vescls enabled sixteen from tie Waitara to clamber aboard of the Hurunui; otherwise, all on tho former vessel would have perished. No steerage pas engers were saved, as the Waitara was engulfed before any biat could be launched to her,
