JUDGMENT IN THE GAZELLE CASE.

[l!Y TELEGRAPH. —PRESS ASSOCIATION.]

Wellington*, Wednesday. | In tho Appeal Court to-day, in tho.case of; Stone v. Atkinson, tho following judgment i of tho Court was read by Mr Justice John- I ston :—This is an appeal against a decision of, tho Supreme Court, Northern District, over- j ruling a demurrer to the plea?. We aro of opinion that the pleas admit that the vowel in question was a foreign vessel only in ko , far as that description may be applied to a , ship belonging wholly to a British .sub ject. Tho first part of the 201 st section of tho Customs Laws Consolidation Act, 18S2, under which tho seizure in question J took place, applies toany shiporboatbelong- j ing wholly or in part to Her Majesty's sub- ; jects,andtheKCcondpartapplieHtoI"foreign" ; ships or boats coming into any part of i the colony. It may be that in some parts of | the Act a " foreign ship " may have a mean- ] ing different from a whip not belonging I wholly or in part to British subjects ; but in this particular .section it must have that j meaning, and the averment in tho pleas that the ship belongs wholly to a British owner . negatives the plnintilffl avovnient that tho j ship was a foreign one within tho meaning ; of that section. It was contended at the ' hearing that the whole of the sections from 191, including section 201, must bo, taken as applying to small craft only, be- | cause tho heading before motion li)l i* ! "Restrictions on small craft." But it is' not clear that tho heading applies only to' some of the following sections, and not to ' section 201, and that at nil events it could limit tho operation of general words used, in the following sections. The pleas allege ' two broaches of tho 21st section, the first! and second pleas averring that the vessel was found within a port, having on board (1) vessels or packages of tobacco of pro hibited aizo and character; and (2) tobacco imported in two complete packages, each containing less than (SOlbs. weight," which is contrary to the provisions of section 60, the third and fourth pleas being similar, but alleging that the vessel was found in port, , having conveyed tobacco as abovo men i tionod. It was contended that two of the ! pleas were bad (the first and third) for I using the words "vessels or packages." | Wo do not think the statement in the plea ! is in this respect so precise as it ought to be ; in a conviction, but at all events the second i and fourth pleas are free from that i objection. This objection is really one in 1 tho nature of special demurrer, as the pleas ] could bo held bad only on account of un i certainty. Wo think, therefore, that this appeal ought to lio dismissed with costs ; costs to be on tho higher scale. Appeal accordingly dismissed.

CORRESPONDENCE.

Land Nationalisation,

(To the Editor.)

t Slß,—lt is ovident that " Nihilist" has not studied tho subject under discussion. Ho says that every privato owner of land is a robber. Now, I would ask your permission to point out to " Nihilist" that every private landowner is not a robber. On the con trary, ho, in many cases, is the party robbed. For example : All our working farmers (who are tho producers of real wealth) are compelled to pay down a tax to be allowed to produce food, &C, that is re quired by the whole community—a tax that in many cases consumes capital that should : bo available for labour-saving machines, to ! lessen tho cost of living to tho whole com ' muiiity. Again, tho settlers are taxed on ; the value of their land for road-making . (which benelits the whole community), to ; say nothing of the Property Tax, Customs duties, rent on town land value, interest lon mortgages, &c, &c., which all falls ion tho workers of tho community. Now j what beneiit does a settler receive from the ! value of his land? Why, nothing, unless \ lie sells out and leaves tho country, or rents his land. A country settler or occupier of ; town lots does not, in reality, own his land, ! although he has paid clown a tax to bo allowed to use it—a tax that is at present consumed and sent out of the country. Tho main question to a settlor is how much a year can ho make by using the land ? Give [ a country settler a guarantee that ho is j making a fair exchange when lie improves i tho lands, and ho will not trouble who owns J it. It must bo understood that a trades | man does not pay the rent of his store. It lis taken oil'the price of the goods he buys, j and added to the price of the goods he sells, i and taken off the wages of his men and his own profits. Wo all in some way pay our share of the tax. I ! would Tike to ask " Nihilist" and all other men who wish to pee labour free from tho tyranny of capital to approach the subject with Christian charity, remembering that the Lord He is God, who governs the earth, and works everything for tho good of them that fear Him. 1 would inform " Nihilist" that we could not have attained to our present state of civilisation had th» land, always been nationalised, Socloty must bo changed before all tlio land in the world nan be free or nationalised, because men at present will not work if they can live with out it. So we see if land value was not used on equal terms with real wealth we should go back to barbarisvn, through the lazy, drunken habits of wicked men. Tho dooper I go into this subject tho more I am convinced that man is the cause of his own misery, while all tho time a merciful Creator is ordering everything for ouv good, If we read history we find that it is the wicked hatred of men to each other that has delayed necessary reform so many years.—l am, 4c, Robinson Crusoe. November 2Cth, ISB3. [Wo have often had occasion to differ from "Robinson Crusoe," but in the fore going letter ho exhibits a keen and sound perception of the difficulties which b.esei the great social problem pf poverty and wealth. A perfect community can only arise when the units are perfect, and until tho moral and intellectual tone of tho masses is elevated, there is reason to apprehend the consequences of any measure conferring upon indolence, vico, and self-indulgenoo tho rewards which can now only bo won by industry and self-denial. Land Nationalisa tion is sound in principle and theory, but has any form of government proved itself worthy of boing entrusted with tho vast powers of political patronage and corrup tion, the minute control over the life of tho people, which this system would entail? Wo fear not, Then again, »s "Robinson Crusoe" discerns, the land quostion is only one phase of tho problem of poverty in the United Statos ; owing to the vast areas of territory sections of which are offered to any individual who chooses to settle on them, it hardly enters into tho question; yot nowhere aro the dis parities between capital and labour more glaring ; nowhero iscapital so irresponsible, or so often used in foi'uiing rings to rob the people and corrupt the Govern ment. If the pcr-ceutago of idle, ignorant, and dissoluto men in a state wore insignifi cant, tho existing flagrant disparities in condition would be impossible, becauso the laws under which they are created and con served would no longer be nooded by tho in dustrious to protect themselves against tho vjcious, and they would assuredly never tolerate thorn for the sole purpose of pro. tecting a higher class of drones to allliet and \ feed npon the workors in the social hive.— Ed. E.S.]

Tobacco Culture.

(To the Editor.)

Sir.—l read with pleasure your sub-leader in a recent issue of tho Star re the culture of tobacco in the Northern districts of New Zealand. Very few of our settlers realise tho immense importance of this industry. At least three of the most flourishing cities in the world owe their prosperity to the manufacture of tobacco— Richmond in Virginia, Havauah in Cuba, and Manilla in tho Philspin.cs, In Manilla and tho surrounding dis tricts there arc 19,000 men, women, and children engaged in the manu facture of cigars and cheroots. Our Colonial Legislature has given a magnificent inducement to our farmers and manu facturers to go at once into this important business. By tho "Tobacco Act, 387!)," which is to continuo in force till Uacembpr 31st, ISSG, there i.s a differential duty in favour of local growers and manufacturers of 2s 6d per Ik on manufactured tobacco, and 5s per lb. on cigars. This, on the quantities imported in 18S2, comes to about £160,000 per annum, or ncai-ly half-a -million sterling' for the three years which the Act has yet to run. Surely our farmers have only to becomo aware of this to induce them to enter into tho business heartily, and without any further delay. The price offered to the growers, say about Sd per lb, would come to about iso or £G0 per acre for ths dried leaves. Is there any other crop now grown here for which so largo a sum of ready money could bo obtained ? The culture is exceedingly simple, and should not cost moro per acre than a crop of potatoes. lam euro

the promoters of theN.Z.T.G. andM. Com pany would rind it to be for their own interest, as well as that of tho growers and the district generally, to print and circulate extensively a small pamphlet containing all tho necessary information as totimeof sowing, suitable soils and manures, the propor method and time of gathering the > leaves, and the propor way to win and pack them when grown. As an ounce of seed will furnish sullicient plants for an acre and a-half of ground, the Company should not hesitate to supply seed gratis to every farmer who is willing to contract to grow it. My only interest in this matter is an ardent wish for the prosperity of our mag nificent Northern districts of New Zealand. —I am, etc., W.T.

Plain English for Volunteers.

(To the Editor.)

Snt, —I" your issue of last evening there is a letter with the above heading,unmistakably referring to the positicnl haveahvaysused in rillc firing. Idonotwishtocomeintoeollision with the Volunteer authorities on the matter by discussing tho letter, and shall therefore refrain from any remarks upon it, except by .saying, "save me from my friends, I will take care of my enemies." But, as I have always been of the opinion that the best position would bo the one enabling a rilleman to do the most execution in tho shortest time, in tho interests of the science I am willing to subject my portion to tho following severe test :—Competitors to lire for thirty Benonds at each of the following distances : 200, ".00, 400, ")00, and (100 yards, my nn tdgonists to lie the prCHent holder, or any, or all of the former holder." of the District Belt, the whole of whom, I believe, lire in the so-ualled military position, This would be a test in favour of my opponents, as they would all have beaten me in former eon teats, and moreover, would all possess the advantages of youthful stamina and good eyesight. Will anyone respond ?—I am, &c., .7. C. So all. Kyber Pass lload, Nov. 28, 1883.

Wesleyan Probationers and the Anglican Church.

(To the Editor.) Sir.— A paragraph appeared yester day to the effect that the Rev. F. W. Martin, who has lately left the We3leyan and joined the Anglican | Church, intends refunding to the Wesleyan 1 College all that he was fairly indebted to , them for his training. It is to be hoped that he has more honourable intentions i than tho Rev. McKenzie Gibson, who, I after receiving his training at one of the l Wesloyan theological institutions in EngS 1 land, shuiflea out of his liability. He had : signed an agreement to refund in case of 1 resignation, but now says that he merely re | ccived an one among sixty or seventy others the instructions of the tutors. It I seems hardly credible that during'u period lof eighteen months three probationers for | the ministry of tho Wesleyan Church \ should bo received by the Anglican Bishop i of Dunedin without in any way communi- i ! eating with tho authorities of the Church ' ' they aro leaving. Dr. Kidd said truly at : i the Three Kings last week that there were ' more safeguards to the entrance of pro ] bationers to the Wesleyan ministry.—l . am, &c, I i Another Wesleyan. I
