LATEST TELEGRAMS.

Do'kdin, this day. At the City Police Court to-day, Mr Watt decided that all decisions convicting and discharging drunkards were illegal ; the minimum penalty on conviction being live shillings.

BESIEGED BY BOERS.

Tea, coffee, sugar, salt, rice, biscuits, and indeed, every thing else was exhausted. All were weak from having to work hard on tins kind of food, but health was fairly preserved notwithstanding. The mealies and Kafir corn were poumled by the men, and when boiled proved wholesome and comparatively nutritious. The husk, however, was only partially got rid of. and this made the men ill. Dysentery and diarrhoea were always prevalent, and none escaped either one or the other. Toward the end there was a good deal of enteric fever and a few easos of scurvy. When our beef-tea was finished, we made a substitute from pre served Australian beef, but it gave little nourishment. To keep off scurvy the men were ordered to boil grass and young inealie stalks in their food, and this was un doubtedly very beneficial. Our wood came entirely to an end on the 15th of January, and we then began burning our waggons. But for this wo should have been in a bad way. Wo burned the whole of tho waggons except live, which were used as traverses inside the fort, but were able to keep the ambulance wagons, water carts, and ammunition carts. These would have gone had we remained. All tents, tar paulins, and everything else wo could lay our hands on, wero cut up to mako sand bags ; a fow pieces only being preserved to cover us on rainy nights. With this exception, all hands were in the open, day and night, during the hottest rainy season of the year. After the first few days we had no tobacco, and many men smokedtealeaves, coffee-grounds, and inealie leaves. A smoking mixture composed of tho two former was quite the rage at one time. "Wo had a few gallons of rum, which was served out in wet weather on live or six occasions ; but our drink was water, of which we had plenty when our well got into working order. On the 20th of March we had only the following left, nothing elso of any kind that was edible being in the place :— Mealies (whole), l,(!001bs; Kaflir corn (whole), s,ooGlbs: all damaged, having been three monthsin the parapet. Preserved meat, 2-tlbs; rice, lOlbs; Erbwuwt, -10 rations : this had been reserved for the sick.

The silence of night, coming' as it did so soon after dark, was often irksome, es pecially as we had not much in the shape of diversion. One of my officers, a Lieuten ant of Artillery, seemed to feel this unac customed quietude, for he would come to me sometimes and say: " Would you allow me just to give a screech ?" "Yes," I would say, " but lirst tell all the sentries, or they might take a fancy for shooting you." This done, he would get on the top of the parapet and commence a series of most unearthly yells. The Boers, not un derstanding this jjerformance, would open fire promptly ; but he v flB down in no time, and feeling all the better for tho exer tion. Occasionally tho men would put a lantern on top of a pole at night, and this always raised a commotion iv the enemy's lines, for they would firo incessantly at it. At night wo communicated with tho maga zine by lanterns, and very useful this kind of signaling was found. Among our many requirements was a Union Jack. One was made in tho gun pits by the men of the Royal Artillery. They were allowed to retain it, .and it is now in the possession of tho N. Battery, Fourth Brigade, Royal Artillery. It was made from coat linings, and has a good number of bullet holes to show. It displayed its folds for exactly two months on our parapet, a visible sign that the small garrison had yet some life left, and could still do something for tho honour of their Queen and of the army to which they were proud to belong. lam proud to say that her most gracious Majesty has lately been pleased 'to inspect this Hag at Windsor.—-Colonel Winsloe, in "Mao smillon's Magazine"

HOW A VICTORIAN STRUCK OIL. "VVolnberg-road, Hawthorn, Victoria, sth November, 1882. - GenUomen,-I havo much pleasure in Inform inr you of tho good effects I have (ixpencnced from Uio use of St. Jacob's Oil for family pur poses.

A telegram received this afternoon re garding the fire at Hamilton, reported in another column, Btates that the billiard table in the building which was destroyed was insured for £130, while the Union Bank and other buildings injured were insured in the Union Company for f 1,400. Mr Heslop, Chairman of the JTrade and Labour Council, haa just received a tclo gram from Mr J. M. Dargavillo, M.H.R., in reply to one expressing tho sympathy of the Council with that gentleman in hia action ro Major Atkinson and "political corruption." Mr Dargavillo expresses his gratification at their approral, and states tliot ho had been requested to address a public meeting at Dunedin (where he now is), but he had declined, as ho considered he owed his first duty to his constituents. Blasphemy, according to tho laws of Russia, is a "crime against faith." Tho punishment is deprivation of all civil rights ,and banishment to the mines of Siberia for twelve or fifteen years. Spoaking against the Scriptures of tho Christian religion is punished by similar deprivation of rights and by imprisonment for six or eight years. Persons who go to church, and there, during djrine service, speak disrespectfully of re ligion, or of the services which aro going on, we put in the penitentiary for two or three years. Tho law does a kind deed to drunkards by providing that if anybody ! convicted of these offences shall be proved to have been drunk at the timo they were committed his punishment is con siderably reduced. Tho State religion of Russia is that of tho " Christian Orthodox Catholic of tho Eastern Confession," which is commonly kuown as tho Greek Church. There are heavy penalties for trying to proselyte to other faiths. Tor a clergyman teaching the child of Greek Church parents the catechism of any other religious faith, the penalty is for the first offence suspen sion from his office for from one to three years. For the second offence it is suspen sion for ever and imprisonment for two years. Ministers of other denominations are thus tied up to labour in very narrow bounds. Th^y must bo content with such followers as they have, and must not try to bring in any outsiders who may hereditarily or otherwise bolong to the Greek Church. Converting an adult member of the Greek Church to another faith is punished byt.ransportation to Siberia for life, and no questions asked. The life of a minister in Russia, if belonging to any other than the regular Church, must be beset by difficulties and dangers.
