THE SIEGE OF PUKEKOHE.

Mr Moodonald Burnt in Effigy.

PUKEKOHB, this day A MFE sizo effigy of Mr Macdonald, who was expected to arrive hero by the last train last night, was prepared and fixed up on the main road, immediately epposite to the station gates. After tbe usual fun with It, a pint of kerosene was poured down the throat to stimulate h'm Inaarda after the roniih trea'nient previously received, and a match applied to the fuse a* the train eu. tered the station. It took the paasengwa a little time to understand the causti of the glare, the uproar, and the howlinga of the assembled multitude-; lmt after all was ex plained, they enjoyed tho scene abont as; well as the "natives."

(FEOM SEVIRitf, OOERESPOSDEKTS.)

PUKEKOHB, March 3. As (stated in our telegram to you yesterday afternoon the door of the Telegraph Oilice was forcibly broken open by the railway pumper under the orders of the atationii master, we will now give a morfi detailed description of tho affair co far aa observed by outsiders -.—Mr A. V. Macdonald arrived here on Thursday morning, accompanied by a young man named Blackmore, who is a relieving clerk in tho railway depart ment. They were seen to enter tho station master's effice and shortly afterwards it was rumoured that the poHma-tcrand telearaph ist had born suspended by Mr Maedonald, and that Mr Blackmore was instructed to take his place, Somehow or other, however, there appeared to bo a deadlocK, as Mr Lovell did not evacaate tho office, and Mr Blackmore was evidently not fulfilling tho duties. It was also stated inthernmour that the cause of Mr MacdonaW's action wea Mr L'vell sleeping on the premises at night, and tho truth of this statement appears to bo corroborated by the fact that,. contrary to bis usual cnttom, Mr Lovell slept at the house of one of the neigh bouring residents. Yesterday morning, it was observed that there \ira« a notice on the telegraph office door that there was no admission to the Instrument room without written authority. About midday the excitement which had bo»n gradually arising in tho neighbourhood be came very much intensified by a rumour that steps were about to ba taken to force an entrance and take possession of tbe office on behalf of the railway department. A large number of peoplo therefore gathered around to watch the proceedings. About 2 o'clock the pmmper was soen going to a st»ck of firewood piled up ready for loading in the trucks which were to arrive, after tho retmirs to tbe line damaged by the recent floods. Shoul dering a good hesvv junk be entered tbe station-master's office, and commenced using the weapoa a« a ha!tering-ram to a door leading thence into the instrument room. The door not being very securely fastened, after a few thundering blnws fl»w ocen, thelock-box having given way to the force applied. The window between the Instrument room and the outer public office being open, the proceedings within the office were visible to the spectators congregated in the public office. Mr ioveU took Instant pos«es»ion of the telegraph key. Mr Blackmora sup ported by the stafinn.raaster, who was backed up by the pumper and a p'atelayer, demanded possession of the instrument key, Mr Lovell replied that he was> autho rised by Messrs Bis 3, Fnrby, and Gray, to retain poossession of tho office and its con tents ;he must therafor» refuie to allow Mr Blackmore to touch tho instrument. The invading party said they had Mr Mac donald's orders to take possession. The defender retorted that he mvst obey the orders received from his own department. Matters sow appeared to be taking on a desperate tnrn, aa the platelayer muttered something obout having orders from tho Head Engineer to_ remove Mr Lovell from the offics by main force, and that he must do his duty. This, however, he seemed very loth to do, and tendered an apolosv to Mr Lovell for the disagreeable necessity he was placed under of bavin? to take him by the neck and crop and bundle him out. Mr Lovell's courage remained steadfast under this terrible threat, and the firm front he displayed, com-1 bined with the rambling growls now I coming from the outside spectators appeared to strike dismay into tbo hearts of the attacking force, who bet»an to Chink that discretion might be the better part of valour, and retired a little to one side, thus allowing Mr Lovell to make use of ths telegraph iustrnment. After survey itg 'the poiition for some time, the attack ing force,retired from the field, leaving Mr Lovell in' posiession'. The pnblic now retired, satisfied with the result of the battle, and rejoicing that bo blood had been shed over what appeared to have been a prtraly departmental blunder. Subsequently a large and influential meeting was held at the Pukekohe Hotel on Friday to consider what steps should be taken by the settlers anent the action of Mr McDonald (District Railway Manager) in suspending Mr Lovell, our local postmaster and telegraphist, and breaking the door of the Post Office in order to seize the said Postmaster, &&, and take possession. The meeting vrasi attended by about 50 men. On thp motion of Mr L. Wilson. Mr Webster was voted to the chair. After a few opening remarks from the Chairman on ihe strange conduct of Mr McDonald, and the convenience to the. public of the telegraphist sleeping in the office—which latter idea is the cause of suspension, as stated by Mr McDonald, the following resolutions were carried unanimously :—

(1) Tiafc the peoplo of Pukekohe have held and still hold Mr Lovell iv the highest esteem as a faithful, 2oalous, and obliging public servant since hia appointment to Pukekohe, and we deeply regret the trouble and inconvenience to which he has been subjected while in the discharge of bis pnblisduty, and that we take this pnbllc opportunity of expressing our sympathy with him in tbe trying position in which he is now placed..

(2) That having heard the statements of those who were witnesses of the disgraceful scene which took place at the Post Office to-day, we cannot but f peak in the highest, terms, of MrLovell's cool eonrage, forbear ance, and gentlemanly conduct in main taining his official position in obedience to the orders of the head of his department.

(3) That this meeting protests against the conduct of Mr McDonald in this matter, that he exceeded bis duty by interfering with a matter which appears to us to be outside his department, and that we regret that publicproperty should be destroyed (i, c,, the breaking in of the Post Office door by Mr McDonald's command) at the command of any public servant, and that men should ba withdrawn from the important work of repairing the slip between Pukekohe and Drnry to perform this " bnglarious" work. (4) That weexpressthe earnest hope that the Telegraph Department will see the advantage and necessity of providing for the telegraphist's residence on the premises at all times, it being a great public benefit, as evidenced by many reoent cases, notably the recent accident to the railway during tht heavy floods of Sunday morning last, cs by Mr Lovell's presence on the premises he washable to telegraph information to the officials along the line, so that repairs wero commenced within a few hours after the accident by a large bady of men, thus saving 24 hours' time.

(5) That our local member, Mr Hatnlin, be askod tn bring the condncfc of Mr Mc- Donald before the noverument, that we are of opinion t^at Mr McJ'onjJd hns nnt sufficient work in his own department, or jw wo»ld not have Mmo to luterfai'e vaU-

WINE MAKING IN AUCKLAND.

(To 1;ho Editor.)

Sir, —SVould you kindly oblige a man that takes somo interest in viticulture, by making a suitable public inquiry whether there exists ia Auckland such a thing as a " glucometer," with preference to ono made by Dr. Guyot? With the aid of such an instrument, the wtitrr would bo enabled to maka a fair tes; of what kind of wino might be expected ftom locally-grown grapos. Whoever ha' had an opportunity to see the vineyards of Burgundy as well as those along the Swiss Lakes of Geneva and Newcastle, must como to the con clusion that the limestone hills abounding round Pahi, Poparoa, Mauugaturoto, etc., will, under tbe most unfavourable cirenmi stances, grow a vine at tbe very least equal to that obtained from the above-named foreign places. Tbe writer has found an abandoned vino in a neglected orchard in limestone laud, bearing over 200 grapc bunchea, of well and equally sized berries, beginning to colour about the middle of February. Tbia vine was working itself through a qnick-hedgo over fern and icrubi To secure ripo grapes, even tho French'viuegrowers have to keep tho vines free ftom water sticking roond the loots, and towards tbo approaching stage of maturity break all tho superfluous wood outside ot the bearing branches aud one or two leaves above and ou the bearing branches, off tho vine; moreover to cle,ir the hidden branches gradually— not all at once—from tho *un-robbing leaves. As long as thc»o rules have not been observed and strictly followed, no actual vinegrower of New Zenhnd, where most of the vines show an extraordinary ' luxuriance, has the right to say that tho limestone hills in tho northern patt of Auckland—say beyond I'ort Albert and Whanga:ci—will never be able to grow a good table wive, equal to -the ordinary Krench table ivinea. Certainly it is not all to grow the grapes, but just as much depends on the subsequent treatment of the sap in tho cellar, and even beforo it is put into aay cask. Also a cellar, heating above about 13° X., is, as a rule to be avoided for storing wioe. I havO to mention tbat ths Aryyle, on her trip of the 29th to Wh.tngarei, burst one of the steam tube 3 and had to stop the engine off Waiwera, gciug od, nevertheless, uader canvas. Tbe stockers proved themselves able to the task, as they managed to get steam again after the very short lap.<e of about thirty minutes, which speaks ex« tremely well for the men aud for their coal. —I am, &c,

Lewis Zumbria, Mauogatoroto, February 23, 1883.

The enflerer by the accident at the Auck land Timber Company's mill is named Soaper, not Sawforth, as printed last night. We are also glad to learn that his wife is not ill. The wounded hand shows signs of improvement, though it is yet too early to tell how it will get on.

There are still no tidings of tho missing men who left Mercury Bay to proceed over laud to tho Thames. Superintendent Thomsoa received information to-day that a^earcb party consistingofDetectiveDoolan, Constable Slight, and three experienced bush men, who had been specially engaged, had s'arted from the, Thames this mqtnißg. They could only proceed fourteen miles on horseback, and the remainder of tho distance would require to be done on fcot through a dense bush. If they can discover no trace of the misurjg men, they will go straight on to Mercury B*y, and continue tbe search back. It is ten days since tho travcJlors were heard of, and tbe weather since then has been very boisterous.

A REMINISCKNCE OF the post throe years marks rapid strides In the City of.

THREE YEARS experience have shewn by demonstration that a nimble 6d. is bettor than a slow Is., and that, notwithstanding tho close imitation and keen competition to which we have been subjected, our business was never more successful than at the present, tho public readily discriminating between tho plan adopted at the Aroade of marking tho goods at the same universal low price, and the course now being adopted by some of our competitors—marking a few lines 50 per cent, below the prices at which they have for years supplied the same goods to the Auck land public. During our three years RESIDENCE IN * the Citp our prices have remained the same wo commenced at in High-street, and though in tho plan we havo pursued — viz., supplying our goods upon a lower tariff of profits than Eitheito Known in Auckland, we have incurred tho displeasuro of a few of our neighbours, we are yet content to know we havo the approba* tion of the majority of our appreciating tizens, and as long as wo remain in AUCKLAND it will be our endeavour honourably to maintain tho position in which we havo been placed by the extensive patronage wo havo rooeived from the inhabitants of Town and Country, to whom 1 wo tender o'ir sincere '.hanks, I ■kijrw f) OODSON'S.
