plans and levels approved by the Council." The amendment was carried and the clause then passed. Clause 5 : " That the Freezing Company purchase any properties requiring to lie pur chased, and sell the same Upon the work of cutting down to new levels being completed, Hie Harbour Board and City Council under taking to pay the Freezing Company their equal proportions or one-Hind each of any loss, and the Freezing Company dividing any profit that may accrue on the trans actions."—Agreed to.

Clause G : " Interest on purchase mono, to be allowed .-it current bank rates miti

the property is sold." Cr. LaKochk moved ■>.- an amendment, "Thatthe interest allowed should be 1 r,.-. cent, the amount the Council were rcccj,/-j n g on their deposits." Cr. Haw-ek moved that '.>>; interest should I,'eli per cent.

The latter amendment <~.,> agreed to, Cr. Crowthku remarking ;| K it it had been mid at his end of t'y table that the Hank owned the Frc^mtr Company, and that they could inako "it open out if they liked.

Clauso? : "That the City Council nndi r take t,,, carry out the contract for cutting dovijfl Emily I'lace, the Harbour Board and K<iw Zealand Frozen Meat and Storage Company indemnifying the Council against any loss that may occur other than the City Council's responsibility for one third of the amount of compensation as above rated, subject to provisions of Clause 4."

The Mayoii stated that Cr. Mackechnie had suggested in Committee the substitu tion of the word "reimbursing" for "in demnifying."

C'r. Thompson said that he was inclined to move a more sweeping amendment than that, lie therefore proposed that the word "upon" should be inserted after '" Place," and that after the words "Storage Co." the following should bo substii nted for those recommended by the Committee, viz. : "depositing the a'.nounfr of the contract in the bank, to be operated ufon by the Council in paying the cost of such contract as the works ■progress.'1 llewished to make the Council's position clear, delinite, and safe beyor.d any doubt, for their experience of previous arrangements should have taught them to be careful at the outset of huoi>. matters, leaving no room for mis understanding. The amendment was lost, and the clause passed.

ClausoS: ''That the whole of the works -above referred to be completed within a term of two (2) years from date of euni menccment of works. '

C.<i, Devoro moved the addition of Hie ■words " provided an acceptance of the site hy tho authorities of St. Paul's Church." He afterwards withdraw it, however, on tho understanding that the work would net be commenced until the site was approved. Tho clause then passed. On the Council resuming, Cr. Thompson moved as an additional clause, "That the Council's proportion of the cost of tho pro posed works if carried out in Emily Place be defrayed from that portion of the loan allocated to tho East Ward of the city."— Carried. The question of fixing the levels was ad journed till Thursday fortnight. Cr. U'jddul moved, "That tho St. Paul's Church authorities be offered a site on tho Alton Road, or the site at the junc tion of Wakefleld and Alexandra Streets." —Carried. Tho Finance Committee was appointed to negotiate with tho vestry and report. The consideration of the Surveyor's re port on a new gradient from Customhouse street to Princes-Street was deferred till Thursday next.

The first was a species of Uclmisia, to which lie had applied the name of Cehnida rupeslris, and which had been found on tho slopes of Mount Peel, Nelson, a height of f>,ooo feet; the .second belonged to the gens Potamog&on, while tho remaining three were hirer.

WHARF STORAGE.

Important Proposals by Moasrs L, D. I Nathan and Co.

Tiik following letter, containing important proposals on the vexed question of receiving, storing, and delivering goods h'om vessels, was lead at the Harbour Board this After noon : —The Chairman.—Sir,—Wto arc wish ful of bringing vmder your notice a port i requirement ■Hv want of which is felt by the Vi'^c'.',- mercantile community most I M',Vr.'jusly, also by shipowners, and i» com ,'neutcd on unfavourably by all eom | mercial visitors. We refer to the ! antiquated method of discharging ships ; and distributing goods to the various | consignees. We think the time has come | that Auckland should possess all the : facilities of a first-class port, and in further j ance of this object we write. Attached is a ■ sketch of our suggestion, viz., that double ' countersunk lines of railbe laid along Queen street wharf, and that the Board arrange with I he (iovoriununt for the use of lines ■ iiuw planed on railway wharf, so that both wharves may be connected by a double lino running through the pro i posed goods shed, thus facilitating the ■ transhipment of goods from vessels at one | wharf to vessels at the other, if necessary, 1 without any second handling. That a sub ! slantlal goods-shed be erected on the place indicated on the accompanying plan, on the completion of the reclamation, such shed to occupy the whole space from the Break water Road to Queen-street. That the Harbour Board supply open or covered trucks, according to the state of the weather, to every vessel requiring (Us charge, and tako over the whole busi ness of delivering goods from shed to consignees lit no expense for such to either ship or consignee being recouped by wharfages, as at present, from both sources. That no deliveries be made except from the Board's goods-shed pro posed. That consignees be allowed one week's storage on all packages without charges except dangerous goods, which we think should come under special regula tions. That a nearly prohibitive rent charge bo made on all packages not re moved within one week. That masters desiring to discharge their vessels at night be permitted to do so upon payment of all overtime involved. That along the southern side of the proposed shed there should be twelve to fifteen large openings, with sliding doors, opening to the roadway, so that there would be ample convenience for quick delivery. In the foregoing wo have given a general outline of our idea, which is unnecessary to elaborate on here. Wo hope the Board will see its way to the adoption of some such scheme to remove the widespread dissatisfaction existing under the present cumbrous and costly ar rangements, and in view of the necessity of making "provision for the increasing ship ping business of the port, and the prospect of large ocean steamsrs regularly trading here, the rapid discharge of which is of vital necessity.—We are, & c,, L. D. Nathan & Co. The proposals were briefly discussed, and eventually referred to the Works and Tariff Committee to report.

FIRE IN A GOLD MINK.

[IIV TIiLEUKAI'H, —OWN COHRKSPeSUKNT.]

Thames, this day. Ax outbreak of firo in the Old Caledonian Mine has caused a cessation of work in it and in the Golden Crown Mine adjacent for the last two days. It is well-known that some of the old workings in tho lirst mentioned mine were tilled up with tire wood, a large quantity being used ; and it is supposed that this has ignited spon taneously. On Sunday forenoon,the'manager of the Caledonian attempted to explore the mine, in order to find out the locality of the tire, but was unable to proceed on account of the gas and smoke, which had a most powerful effect. The fire, which is evidently on No. 1 level of the Caledonian Mine, may burn for wcoks and cause great interference with work, unless united steps are taken by the mines afl'ected to stop the conflagration. Yesterday forenoon,some men who were cat work in the Caledonian had a narrow escapo from being overcome by tho noxious vapours arising from the five. James Elliot, who was so much affected as to be almost help less, was sent up in the cage in chargo of John Mclnnee, who was not so bad. In the next trip Mr llickw, manager, with Richard Cassley and Arthur Richards, wore brought up—the two latter in a fainting condition, and only being saved from falling out of the cage by Mr Hicks supporting them. The smoke and gas are blown into different sections by changes of the wind. It is pro posed to smother out tho fire by cutting off the air.

COLLISION IN THE ENGLISH CHANNEL.

«. WRECK OF A NEW ZEALAND EJiiGKAvr sim». THE ST. LEONARDS FOUNDERS AFTER COLLISION. A Keutdk's cable despatch from London under yesterday's date brings news of the loss of the ship St. Leonards, by collision in the English Channel. A private telegram from Dunedin states that the St. Leonards was en route from London to Wellington when the accident happened, but no particu lars are to hand of how the disaster took place. From last number of the " European Mail," we find that the St. Leonards was loading for Lyttclton; but it is possible Hint her detention was altered prior to sailing. The St. Leonard's was a fine ship, and was formerly under command of Captain Todd, an old trader to New Zealand ports. AV'hile it is gratifying to learn that no lives have been lost, it is unfortunate that these repeated disasters to New Zea land ships should happen, as they aro likely to have a discouraging effect on immigra tion to the colony. The St. Leonard was owned by the Shaw Saville Company.

The Customs launch proceeded to Motuihi to day with provision, etc., for the sick passengers left there by the Doric. She had not returned up to a late hour this afternoon. The Harbour Board decided to prepare {ilana and specifications for the extension of the Railway Wharf for the accommodation of ocean-going steamers, and requested the Tariff Committee to reconsider the storage rates in wharf sheds. They also refused to pay the Bank of New Zealand claim of £IS(>2 for brokerage on the loan.
