THE GOLD FEVER IN CAN TERBURY.

(DT TELEGRAPH—PRESS ASSOCIATION.)

CHRISTCHUctCH, Sunday AT the Ninety-Mile Beach operations are going on, but thero is nothing to justify a rush. At Glentunnel a piece of quartz has beon found showing spec, of gold all over it. At Ashburton the gold fever bas set in. On Saturday several well known Alford Foiest settlers, old diggers, came to Ashburton, bringing with them several lumps oi quar z obtained from rocks in their own districts. One of these was wedge-shape, aud made a " fullish kind of banuful." The upper sur face of this was covered with "layers of gold." This specimen was *»o rich as to do light the eyes of every man with old mining experience, and the sight of it raised a high fever among tbe knots of people who had a chance of looking at it. The gold was un deniably right, and there can bo no doubt that where sich a rich sample can be obtained there is plenty remaining. The exact locality from which tho specimens came, of course, ia at present kept dark, but the finder is confident tbat in a month or leas the matter will be heard of in a more definite form.

FOOTBALL.

Canterbury v. Wellington,

THIS match, played at Wellington on Saturday afternoon in presence of about 3,000 visitors, resulted In a win for tbe local team by a try to nil. The play throughout was very equal, and hut for some irregularities leading to scoring being diiallorved by the umpires, was rather lv favour of the visitors. The ground was slippery, which interfered to some extent with the play, the game b^iug in every re spect Inferior to that played with Otago. The Canterbury men were the heaviest team, and played a grand forward game, but their backs were weak, and this gave the Wellington team an advantage, as in tbat particular line, with Wood, Dumbell, Davy, Moore, and Smith, the Wellington men were very strong. The names already mentioned are those who showed up noticeably iv the game, but a special word of praise must be given to George Campbell for the brilliant dashes he made in attempting to score, as after the first try be was only stopped on two or three occasions when close to the Canterbury line. Wel lington's victory was extremely popular, and the match with Auckland ia anxiously looked forward to. In the matches against Otago and Canterbury, Wellington played with the same team, with the exception of Udy, of a city team, but it is probable that in the Auckland match they may take in the Bailey Brothers, one of whom played such a grand game in the tournament in 1879.

DISTRICT LAW SOCIETY.

Half-Yearly Meeting.

THE annual mesting of tho Law Society for the district of Auckland took place this afternoon, in tho R.M. Court-house, Mr E, K. Tyler (Vice-President) being In tho chair. There were also pre.cnt—Messrs E. Hesketh, A. Devore, J. M. Alexander, Jss. Russell, W. H. Armstrong, Thos. Cotter, ri. Hesketh, Edward Coopor, W. 1 home, _. A. Mackechnie, and P. Digsao. Mr S. Hesketh (hon. »Ec) submitted a report from tho Council for tbo past %ix months. It stated that eieco tho com iiieuc.nieut of the year tho library had been very considerably incroaied by tbo receipt of anew set of "The Law Reports " and "The Law Journal Reports," whloh htd' itnived lv excellent order. Tbe sat« for merly in use hud been sent down to the District Court, and enclosed in a 03*6. Ihe cost of the new sets, together with other works sinco ordered, was about £320. line complaint bod been received by the Council of misconduct on tho part of a member of the profession and this had received their consideration. The matter bad beeu banded over to a solicitor in order 10 obtain the necessary evidence. If this evidence were obtained, then the council had determined to proce»d against tbe practitioner in question, 'he council had also recoived two complaints of unqualified persons having acted as solicitors. In both of tbeie cases the Council had ordered tbe parties to be prosecuted, and tho ca«_l were now in tho hands oi counsel, instructed for that purpofo. Two such peisons had been convicted in the Southern portion of the Colony, and it had beon there decided that it was not necessary that the parties so acting should have re ceived reward for their services, J here was good reason to believe that a Urge amount ot this kind of prtctlce was cirried on ia Auckland, but hitherto th« Council had aot been able to obtain the evidence. In ono of tho Southern cases referred to the person charged had acted a debtor in preparing his papets in bankruptcy proceedings, and in the other case he had acted in like manner in divorce proceedings. The law reports wero now finally established, and 11 pro perly inpported, there was every likelihool of their becoming of great value and service to tbe profession. Although Auckland, however, contributed equally with Wellington, Christchurch, and Dunedin to the costs of the reports, but for a paid reporter tho other -districts referred to received a much larger share of its advantages. The Society's funds would not enable them to engage a reporter at a salary of £200 per annum.

Mr Devore moved, and Mr Thome St. conded, the adoption of the report. Mr E. Cooper ooneidered that it was high time that the Council's reports were mado less myulical In character. Certain vague information was given about malpractice on the part of somo members, but their names were not mentioned, nor tbe kind of malpractice explained, while the only statement of the Council's In tentions was tbat it would prosecute it it got satisfactory evidence. He thought the Society desired, and were entitled to, as much information as the Council possessed. For all they knew, ihe charges might be preferred against one of those present. It seemed to him tbat the Council was always going to take action, hut never did so.

The chairmain said that the pactl tioners referred to could aot remain in ignorance of the intention to take proceedings against them. The rules provided for that.

Mr Alexander did not think the membsrs of the society desired to bare these com plaints made publfc. I fancy, complaint were made against himtelf, he would like it kept private; but he was quite willing that any complaint against Mr Cooper should be made public. Mr E. Hesketh admitted the advisability of the Society receiving all t&e information on these matters that the Council posiessed, but pointed out that it would be undesirable in all cases to make it publio. The Council had never been slow to prosecute for mal practice, but there was a difficulty in getting evidence. The TreaeurerXwlshed some jjaettled arrangement made with respect to the robing room. Thore were 70 prac titioners in tho district, .fl of whom were members of tbe Society, and of these 46, only 30 had paid up their fees Yet they all usod the robing-ioom, which, he assumed, was the proporty of tbe Society. It was resolved on the! motion of Mr Mackechlne "Tbat the .Secretary be re quested to write to tbo Attorney General on the subject of the robing room. It was reported that the supplies of so.*, water, and fuel by the Government nad been stopped, and that opeu war had btokea out between the registrar and the librarian,

The matter was referred to the Library Committee, as was also the devis.l of a new arrangement with respect to tho use of the library after business hours, the members thinking that thoß6 who con sumed the gas and fuel should pay for them.

Included in the cargo of the barque Glen lora, which is now on the berth for London, will be 2,000 cases gum for New York. It appears tbat this shipment will be conveyed to London (it is expected in eighty-four days), transhipped there into steamer for America, and delivered in New York within 100 days of its departure from Auckland. and yet were that 2,000 esses of gum shipped direct—and there is a vessel now loading—the freight would be 5s per ton more than if sent by the S.B. and A. Company's vesselsI**! while if conveyed by tbe latter,;'* it would bo delivered in New York 'about 20 days sooner than if sent direct, We are insured that thi-j is not a solitary instance of such a strange slate of affairs.

SUPPOSED SUICIDE.

Curtain discoveries havo been made to day, which lead to the suppoiitlon that a young man named Andrew M. Allen has committed suicide. At about 6,30 a.m. Robert Barrington, employed by Messrs Fisher and Co., found a soft block felt hat, a letter, and two telegrams cloas to the breast work near thedock Hegavo these articles to Sergeant Clarke, of tbo Water Folico, and that officer very speedily collected other particulars which leave very little doubt aa to the fate of tbe owner. The letters were addresaed to Alexander M. Allen, and as one of them was from Cousins and Atkln, coachbuildere, he proceeded to their work shop in Kllfott-straet. Here ho learned that Allen had been employed there for about twelve months, aud that he was last sosn there at 2 o'clock od Satur. day afternoon. He had told several fellow employes that they might never see bim again. Strgeaut Clarke, on making further inquiries, learnod tbat Allen had lodgod with Mr Bdgar Hogan, of Upper Queen •treet, and that he had taken tea there on Sunday evaning.) Subsequently, Allen viilted the Queen's Hoad Hotel, in Queen, street, and there mot a young lady friond, whom h< took for a walk, roturnlng shortly after 11 p.m. Ho pre. sented her with a silver bracelet, re marking that iho might kocp it in remem brance of him, as he would probably not see h«r again. Since that lime Allen has not boen htard of, and it Is feared tbat as he was in • rather melancholy mood rec.ntly, tbat he hat voluntarily lost his live by drowning in tho harbour. The wator police have bean engaged during to day iv dragging the harbour in tho vicinity of the dock, bnt have found do further signs of the missing man, Allen, who was a single man, was well known In Auck« land.

Tho charge of asnault against Messrs MoKenna, on tho information of Maurice Sullivan, late a detective iv tho police force, was called at 2 o'olocc, but ai the prose cut >r did not put in an appearance, tho case was remanded until to-morrow morn ing, when a cross-action will be taken at the same time, and several important wit nesses will come forward to shew tbat Sul livan was the aggressor. A warrant has been issued for Sullivan's arreat.

The Volunteers engaged In quelling the late dlsturbanoeß amongst the Maoris consider they have allowed tho Government sufficient time to acknowledge their services In some substantial manner. Seeing no prospeot of suoh a result, they have deoided to eleot a oandidate capable of giving the subjeot due weight before the House of Representatives. To the furtherance of this object, General Smbad wab elected by acclamation as a fit and proper person to bring1 about the desired result. Claims were laid by the following troops:—Waikato Horse, Nixon Light Horse, Waikato Rifles, AuoklandClty Guards, Taierl Rifles, and Dunedin Naval Brigade. General Slnbad started by the Hine moa last week, was in due form introduced to the Speaker on tho 19th July, when he Inti mated the object which brought him there. The members admitting the importance of the sub ject, set apart the next day for its oonslderatlon. Claims for compensation were laid by no fewer than from 1 up to 2.-6, from 3001 to 8025, from 2501 to 5530 (inclusive); 3001 shares altogether. whloh wero in proper form, being accompanied by the prescribed deposit of 10s. After 6 hours oloso investigation, 81 of the olaims were allowed. It was resolved that a hearty vote of thaoks be accorded the remaining 2907 who, while having rendered equal services, were, by the unfortunate aooident of olrcumßtanoe-, in eligible for substantial reward on the present occasion. It is to be hoped on the next occasion they will prove more fortunate.
