TBS Birthday Meeting in connection with fie Takapuna Jockey Club eventuated this altetnooo under anything but auspicious (jjicmnsfsncea so far as the weather was cmceraed. It was understood early in the forenoon that in comequence of the heavy downpour of rain the meeting would be postponed until Saturday, but this tonne excited the opposition of many, and ooiueqnently the arrangements were allowed to remain as previously, a considerable number of spectators left town by the 11 o'clock and successivo ferry steamers, but ntchirg the ground, found it in a shocking itate, resembling a bad swamp, and more nitable for yacoting contests than horse reclng. The numbe'S for the first race weHt upihortly before twelve o'clock.but a passing thunderstorm, with the usual accompani ment oi heavy rain, caused a delay of about an hour. When the storm cleared away, the attendance h»d considerably improved, ■ number of ladies being amougst those present. The gr»nd stand afforded very littlepiotection against the rain, which found id way into every crease. A detachment of the police force was present nnder the charge of Sergeant Gamble, the bookmak ing fraternity mustered in force, while Mr Adams opened his totaliaator and did a comparatively good business. The late Artillery Band was present, under the direction of Bandma»tet Hunter, and performed a variety of musical selections during the afternoon.

ANNUAL DINNER A BATS TERY AUCKLAND ARTILLERY.

The annual dinner of the A. Battery, Auckland, took place at the Auckland Hotel last evening. There were about twenty guests aat down to a well served dinner provided by Mr C. D. Sarjeant, and fhe wines by Mr d. Caffery. 'ihe room was decorated with flags and floral devices. Captain Payne occupied the chair, supported on the right by Colonel Lyon and Captain Wildnian (Thames Navals), on the left by Major Hums, Lieut. Bennet(WeJ. lington IN avals), Lieut, and Adjutant Urant (I'hames). The vice chair was filled by Lieut, norrie, who was supported on Ue right by Captain Mahon (Victoria Com piny) and Lieut. Couolly (Bobson'e), and on the left by Sub-Lieut. Geddes (Artillery). Dinner over, the chairman proposed the toast of "His Jixcellency the Governor," i referring to the encouragement Sir William Jervois had afforded to the Volunteer movement, and to his services in connec tion with the defence of the colony. Captain Ko»» proposed "The Army, Wavy and Colonial force?." Colonel | Lyons returned thsnks on behajf of • the Army, and in doing so, referred to the sertices ot the army in the t'gyptain campaign, and also paid a reeling and graceful compliment to his late brother officer, Major Withers, whom he had known for a peiiod of twenty years, and ot whose gallantry, faitbfulne.'B to duty, and kindliness, and estimable, social qualities he spoke of in the highest respects. Captain Wlidnian responded for the Navy, and in doing so made a very eloquent speech, which evoked frequent cheers Dr. Tcntftut also responded on behulf ot the Navy, and in doing so narrated aome interesting incidents in connection with the services of the ftnvyin the East India Company, and Imperial service^in India. He ako refeired 10 the services of the Navy during the Chinese war. Captain Mahon responded fur the " Vcluna teers," whom, he felt confident, would be always ready when called upon. Under the reorganised system the volunteers were likely to be brought to a higher state of efficiency than for many years past, and to disappoint the forebodings of those who supposed tney would have an opposite effect. The Vfce-Cbairman proposed, " The Mayor aud Corporation," referring in eulo gistic terms to the services rende ed to the ci y by Mr J, M. Clark. Major Burns responded, enlarging on the great strides made by the city of Auckland under the present Mayoralty, He also re ferred to Captain Clark's services as a volunteer, pointing out that he had been probably the first volunteer officer that had ever been under/ire. When Hi* vvorsnipre tired from the Mayoralty at the end ot his present term he would leave behind him a monument in the amalgamation of the suburban districts with the city, which jugut to have been accomplished many years ago. Captain Wildman proposed " The health jf Colonel Pearce," commanding the N.Z. Artillery, speaking in eloquent terms of lis liberality and impartiality in supporting the Volunteer movement. Major Burns responded on behalf of Dolonel Pearce, and referred to his exer tions in securing a Parliamentary vote to the Volunteer movement. The chairman proposed "Ihe Health of ZSolonel Lyuus," which was drunk enthu siastically. Major Burns proposed " Our Guests rhe Msttr Volunteer Corps " Toe toast was responded to by Captain (Viiriman, Capiain Mabon, Adjutant Grant, Lieut. Robinson, Mr McMaste s, responded :or the civiliian". Mr Po*ley proposed " The A. Battery of Artillery," which was responded to by its >fleers. As the Town Clock struck the midnight ;himes the whole company rose at a signal join the chair and gave three hearty cheers lot the Queen, which was followed by the irst verse of the National Anthem. The toasts of the " i,adie.«," "Thames Volunteers," "The Press," and "Our float" brought a very enjoyable evening ;o a close. During the evening several songs were uing by members and visitors, accom lanicd on the pianoforte by Mr Mincher Cne company broke up at 1 p m

THE S.S. WESTMEATH'S IMMI GRANTS.

(To the Editor.)

Si«,— Permit |me space in yonr well-cir culated paper to make a few observations on the paragraph that appeared in your issue of Wednesday last, and generally as regards the adverse reports tnat have been appealing from day to day since the arrival, if not earlier, of the above thip iv youc excellent and beautiful harbour. I am one of the Government emigrants who was on board, and travelled with my eyes open, and can speak truth with autho rity in what I say. We all regretted deeply the decease of poor Charles liutt. He bore the name of a distinguished Irishman that helped to endear him to the many Irish on board. I believe he came from Yorkshire, and had many English friend?. The depot in Plymouth is a cold, inhospitable plac-. When we left it, on the 17th March last, the snow brsprinkled its fields, and lay in wrca'hs along its hed«e rows. The beds there are a refinemen of the torture, as described, of the British plank-bed on which criminals pass their dreary nights. Young Butt got cold, which eventuated in rheumatic fever, It took him suddenly, a? he sat next the engine room to gain heat, as if a dagger had pierced him through the back, lie was taken to hoipiul by the doctor— Vt. Tweed,.who watched and well-cared him. Scarlatina broke out in one case. This was detected by Vt. Tweed, and young Butt was removed from hospital to make room for youDg Queere, the scarlatina case. The doctor throughout ihe entire voyage was unceasing in his attention and his visits. He stamptd oat the scarlatina, and treated the patients with success On the 2nd of April, within the tropics, young Bntt had so far recovered, though greatly swelled in the limbs, that he walked by him self from onr hatch at the wheel house, past the cooking-galley forward, and was helped down the ladder by a yontag friend of mine, who covered him with a iug. About 9 o'clock that night, on my young friend going d»wD, he found him in a convulsive fit. The doctor was imme diately sent for, and he came on the spot, Poor } onng Butt expired as the doctor was trying to save him. It is a pity that Vt. Tweed, who baffled disease oft, is not able to cope with death. Had /Esculapius been on boarr*, Butt should have died, Ihe captain of the Westmeath is evidently a superior man. He and the doctor lironght poor Miss Bntt, slater to the deceased, to the priseuce of the dead, con» veyed her sorrowing back to her place, She had teen and been in the society of her brother on Sunday, the day before death. We all felt deeply for the poor girl; for her to have made a report was a great mls« tike,, She was acted upon by others, and I havo no doubt made believe what was not the case. That the court of enquiry should have exonerated the doctor, is not eooogh. Dr. Tweed should be complimented, and bis merits recognised for the successful way in which he bronght us out. Should be remain in this beautiful colony, the shrewd pc pie of Auckland will soon recognise his merits— a young gentleman, firm as superinton dant, rkiliul and humane in his treat' ment of disiase. The Auckland people have been foolishly condemning every thing connected with the Westmeath, presumably because she did not make the trip within fifty days. Let them remember that the colony only numbers slightly over half a million people, and that an exclusive pa -singer service could not be maintained on express steamboats steaming sixteen or seventeen knots an hour. The first direct steamers must be cargo boats, and they will not exceed ten or eleven miles an hour. Look at the Pacific boat alongside the Westmeath, exceeding her in length, cut in beam, and carrjing capacity, like one of her boat*. The emigrants were all well conducted on board, and if the pent up feeliDgs of two or three have yielded, on getting liberty, to the temptations of your beautiful city, it should not affect the great number, who will make good colonists, I have no doubt. Begging to be excused for trespassing thus on your valuable space, —I am, yours faithfully, J.J.

THE "WEDDING MARCH."

This admirable comedy, by W, 8. Gilbert, of "Pinafore" celebrity, will be produced at the Opera House to-night. It is an adapts! tion from a French farcical comedy entitled "JLe Chapeau de Faille d'ltalie," or, in English, " The Leghorn Hat." It was one of the moat popular works of Eugene Labicht, the foremoit of French farce and comedy writers. In selecting this subject, Mr Gilbert saw bis way to Anglicise one *l these tarcical extravaganzas that have now become as popular in English as they have been iv the original French The story is of the slightest, and deals with the adventures of a straw hat which, while hanging on a hedge, ia partly devonred by a hone. The owuer of the hore, Mr Woodpecker Tapping, has inter. rupted a tGte-a-tOte between the owner of ! the bonnet and a young military *well. The lady is the wife of Major-General Bunthunder, an old fire-eater, who would be furloDS if he discovered the history of the loss of his wife's hat. She aud her friend therefore follow Mr Tapping to hia house, and refuse (o leave until he has re placed the hat by one exactly like it He is going to be married that day, and to his embarrassment, the entire wedding party arrives. He determines to find a reason to stop «n the way to church at a milliner's and purchase a bat, to get rid of his troublesome v tutors. We next see him at the milliners, who turns out to be an old ilamo of his, and who promises to get the hat if he will take her to the theatre that evening The v«eddiug party follows, and the father of the bride mis takes the milliner for the registrar. Much amusement and contusion ensues in conse quence of tbeir cross-purposes, The in cidents that follow are numerous and mirth provoking, and come one on an other with great rapidity. Tbo husband - elect is pursued in turn by tbe troublesome couple, the in furiated husband, and the whole of tbe wedding party, which contains a number of grotesque characters. All, however, as is usual in such cases, ends satisfactorily. In the hands of tbe excellent company now occupying the boards at the Upera Home, the comedy is sure to bo well represented

The operations of this Company will consist of the Qroffing of Apples on an extensile scale, with the object not only of supplying the local market, but also of exporting choice varieties of dessert fruit to England and America, and it may be, other countries north of the line. Owing to the difference of seasons in the two hemis phere, the Company would be in a position to offer the fruit consnmera of these countries fresh apples at any time of the year, when their local supply would be almost exhausted. . i , : ._. 1 ..■• .. v LAND. i C:. BO The land to be taken over by the Company consists of 226 acres, on the east bank of the Tamaki River, being lots 13, and part of lots 42 and 48, Parish of Paturonfta; first-class agricul tural land, fenced, drained, and well cultivated. Price, £25 an acre. The terms of payment are exceptionally favour able to the Company—namely, £650 deposit, the balance to remain at 7 per cent, per annum font term of five years, when, if the Company is not in a position to pay it off out of the profits, after payment of dividends averaging 10 per cent, per annum to shareholdeas on paid-up capital, the rate of interest will be reduced to a per cent, per annum, and remain at that until the Company can so pay it.. . , - jqj 1 TREES. These were selected and secured: early in the season, and are the piok of the local nurseries being as fine an assortment as could be procured under tbe most favourable) conditions. The price will average about 9d each. Ages ranging from one to'five years: principally two years old. Over, fifty thousand scoured for this sea son's planting. The cost to the Company of the Orchard, when fully planted at 10 feet apart (500 trees per acre). will amount to 2a Gd per tree, including land and all other expenses." Allowing £6 5a per acre for culture, interest, and expenses the first year, will bring the cost up to 2s 5d per tree. The system of close planting and thorough cultivation intended to be adopted by tbe Com pany has been proved by actual experience highly conducive to early and heavy bearing, and consequently the realisation of quick and profitable returns. The following statement will show the-difference in first cost per tree nnder the system of planting, as compared with that ordinarily adopted. .tIJ II '■ .Si 500 TREES PER ACRE 10 FEET APART— QUINCUNX ORDER, ail ii - £ ; ad.

The third year an average of (id worth ot fruit per tree will provide for £8 6s 8d per aore expenses, and a dividend of 12 per cent. The fourth year an average ot Is worth of fruit per tree will pro vide for expenses at the liberal rate of £1510s per acre, and allow a dividend of 25 per cent. t Clause 4 of the Regulations unedr the above named Act reads thus:— "i. The trees maybe of any description, and the number planted must be at the rate of not leas than five hundred per acre." - t The allowance made in this estimate of an average of 3d worth of fruit per tree, the second year; 6d the third; Is the fou-th, and 2s the fifth, is considered absurdly low by many practical growers, and it may be as well to mention that while these quantities are used in this estimate, there Is every reason to believe that they will prove far below actual results, and that the returns will warrant the payment of dividends even greater than is herein calcu lated' upon—for instance, if the returns exceed any of the above-named averages by twopence worth ot fruit per tree, it would be equivalent to an additional twelve per cent, dividend. Nothing at all is allowed in this estimate far the Increased value" of "the land and stock (only the aotual returns in fruit being taken into account), but the profit from this source alone would be very considerable, and there is no extravagance in the assumption that in five years time from the commencement, the capital value of each tree, with the ground it ocoupied, would stand at not less than five shillings, representing o profit ot more than 22s 6d per share, exclusive of profits from sale of fruit. _ /°i <i r i The fifth year an average of 2s'worth of fruit per tree will cover expenses at-the rate of £18 ;5s per aero, provide for the balance of the pnr choao money of the land (£5,00J), besides pay ment of a dividend of 16 per cent, , , .. • Jffiyery pennyworth of fruit per tree over end above expenditure will yield a prollt of 6 per cent, on paid-up capital. Supposing, then, from this period forward £25 per acre (one shilling per tree)- is allowed for expenses, every addt- Uonal shilling's wo-th of fruit pec tree will give a profit ot 72 (seventy-two) per oant. on paid-up capital. Approximately, each share will entitle the holder to the produce or profits from five trees, after deducting proportionate expenses for culture and care. As the possibility of disposing of such quanti ties of fruit as an orchard of thiß size would produce has been questioned, it may be as well to draw attention to the rapidly increasing faci lities for sending not only meat, bnt frosh fruit, to the London and Continental markets, and also to the fact that within 40 days of being gathered in our autumn, our apples may bo placed on the Covent Garden fruit stalls in the English Spring. Packed in cool cham bers adjacont to the frozen meat compartments in the direct steamers, the fruit will keep much fresher i than if stored lor the same length of time in New Zealand- Anyone acquainted with London markets need not be informed of tbe ready sale and high prices obtainable for any thing in the. shape of fresh fruit out of the ordinary English season. The Californian market also is one not to be despised, A popu lation acoustomed to consuming apples largely during ten months of the year must prove good customers during .the other two, when their own supply runs out and ours comes in.. «_i The opening Df the Panama Canal is also ex by which timo this Company should be in a position to forward by it large quantities Of fruit. Its opening will bring, practically, to our doors, an unlimited market for Auck land-grown fruit, not only in London, but in all the large oitioa at the Eastern States of America and tbe Continent of Europe. No apprehension need therefore be felt as regards a market for our produce, nor from competition in supplying that market. There is every reason to anticipate that this undertaking will prove so highly profitable to its shareholders that it will become the nucleus of one ot the largest and most important indus tries yet developed in Auckland.
