UHIAWFULLY WOUNDING. John Johnion, a Swedo, was ohorged with having, on tbe 25>h Ueoeiriber last, un lawfully and maliciously wounded Edward Scotter, and further, with having subse nnently, End on the same day, inflicted grievous bodily harm upon the.satd Jfdward <Thepiisoner pleaded guilty to this second C°Mr'Lnsk (who appeared for the prisoner) gaid that he had advised him to plead euilty as he had not been able to find any evidence disproving- the charge. He had, however a few words to urge in extenua tion of the offence. The prisoner was a foreienpr, and on the day in question he was under the influence of drink, and found himself in an affray with some other men. In the course of it he was severely mal treated by Scotter, and in retaliation lie afterwards went behind the mud stabbed him with a knife. Besides being in liquor at the tmie he was acting under feelings of very strong irritation, and was therefore hardly responsible for his actions Up till that time he had been a ejiiet, industrious, and inoffensive man. - • His Honor commented upon the senou3 natnre of the crime, and then sentenced the prisoner to twelve month*' imprisonment with bard labour. ATTEMPTED SUICIDE Joieph Wallace was arraigned upon an indictment charging him with having, on the 21st Kotember la&t, attempted to take Th« prisoner handed in a written state went explanatory of his conduct. Hia Honor, in passing sentence, said :—1 see that jon have suffsred sufficiently in conseqnence ot jour very foolish »nd wrong act. I shall order you to bs discharged upon tnteiiog into yonr own recognizances for £50, to com* up for sentence when called upon. •■ ■ Th» prisoner was then discharged. LAECKNY. Edward John Moeller, a youth of 17 or 18 jeare, was charged with having, on tte 21st October, stolen a watch worth «15 and a chain worth £5, belsnging to E'len Moeller, of Albert-street, , The prisoner pleaded B^'ltyi "** lotting to«ay why sentence should not bo passed upon him, ' His Honor asked for somo information regarding Mm, .•,.,. ,i The Crown Prosecutor said that tne father of the prhoner had been killed some time ago, and that the lad himself had been employed by Mi Williams, eailmaker, Who was prepared to say that lie was generally a good and industrious boj', out rather weak in resisting temptation. Hiß Honor decided to remand the prisoner ia order that he might be enabled to m?ke tome inquiry respecting him. He eaid tilt it was a great pity that boys of that age must be consigned to ruin in bemg sent to gaol. It was a Matter for regret that some proridon should not be made for these juvenile offenders. The prisoner was then remanded. . ATTEMPTED MOBDEB. George Slson was arranged upon on in dictment charging him with having, on the 28th December last, feloniously wounded his wife Elizabeth Olsen, with intent to mnrder her- ■ .■-.'._. The prisoner pleaded guilty.aad on being thareed in the usual way, made some con hßed statements, to the effect that his wife had tesnsed to live with him, and as to her having declared an intention to do as she pleased. Ilia Honor passed sentence as follows :— George Olsen, the crime of which you have been found Rnllty upon your own confession is one of the very gravest character. You wed an axe for the execution of your pur pose, and you ought to bs thankful that jou are not here upon a charge of murder, lor it ia a wonder that the woman could hate survived such a fearful blow as, irom the depositions; yon seem to have dealt ner. The crime, a3 I have eaid, is one of the very gravest character, and no conduct of your wife's could extenuate your conduct in using towards her such a murderous weapon. Yon may be thankful that you ore not hero to be . tried for _ your Wife. The sentence of the Court is that you be imprisoned and kept to hard labour for a period of fourteen years. The prisoner abstractedly nodded his bead and was then removed from the dock. BIGAMY. John Lyttle alias Wiiliatn John Lyttle was charged with • having committed bigamy at Wanganui on the 11th August, 1880, by marrying Mary Jane Willow, his former wifefHannah Maria Fee, whom ho i_»a mairied at Belfast (Ireland) in July, 1672, bßinri still alive. The prisoner pleaded guilty uader ex tennating cirenmshnces. 4 These he «rged in a lengthy statement, upon being asked if he had anything to saj nty »entence should not be passed upon him. He said that he waa married to Hannah Maria Fee, at Belfa.t, in 1872, in a church, but although the marriage was solemnised he did not believe it was regi stered, and afterwards the reflection preyed upon his mind: that he was not Ifg^'y married. Miss Fed's conduct made tain ' sure1 of this for' she was ■ continually naggiDg at him. He' was not inclined "viomarry her, but bis father-mlaw urged him tolt, and the proposal having bsfeu ttade on a Saturday, liny were mairied on the' Mowing Monday. Hesaw -hat he had committed a greviotm mistake, but Ue Wed to snake the best of it. They came . ont to-New Zealand, and as tbe nagging I still continued, they agreed to eeperate, ; and he accordingly settied some pro-j petty upon her, She married a man I niined'Bakir subsequently. :He went to Wanganni became acquainted with Mis i Willows und married her. They went to ChrUtcbmch, where a child was born, and ; after lesiding there two years came up to | . Auckland, and his brother-in-law having m : the meantime seen JBannah Maria Fee, ac- Mse'd him of bigamy and «av3 information to the police' Be declared that he loved Miss Willows: that he regarded her as his natural wife :;and that he was willing to •upporfc her. • Although separated, 'their. ■ watts would ever be together. ~,. . I His Honor, in pafsiDg sentence, said that «» had listened attentively to what the ; » prisoner hid said, and be confessed that 'he statement had impressed him very • weply. 'Instead, however, of extenuating i «'* conduct, he had only succeeded in making it wone. His-abuse of'his wife was hot excuse whatever. He wa*. mar -1 fed in chnrch, and' seemed to have ken, a church-goer, but' that' did not WWi to have cultivated higrnoal sense.

' Hnving been married he was bound, not only by tho lav/ of man, but the natural lasv.to put upwithagonddeal fromhiswifel j even although that good deal cousistcd Ai ' continual nagging. This was no excuse for the gilevous wrong that he had done the second woman by marrying her after having rre |X cl that he was a single man., INo agreement <vith hiq wife lo separate could justify such conduct, for,the law could not take of any Mich voluntary agree- I ment, After taking inta.'Cfinsiilcration the fuct that the prisoner ■lia'C'alreadv spent .three months iv gaol, His Honor inflicted a sentence- of IS msuths'imprisonment, with bard labour. ' ]f-. v NO BILLS. The bills against Peter Young, for lar ceny, and IticU.ird Loder, for larceny as a bailee, were ignored. Jl MORE TRUE BILLS. A true bill wi found against VV. W. Gudgeon for attempted rape, and in all the other cases. The Grand Jury, haviug completed their labours, were discharged. ATTEMPTED MURDER. Albert Edward Long, a smattlydro-scd young mail of 19 yeaw of age, was charged with having, at Pokeno, ou the 6th October las', shot at his futhar, Kichard Drew Long from a loaded pistol, with intent to kill him. . The prisoner, who was iMendfd by Mr E. Hesketh, pleaded " Kot Guilty." Richard Dixon Long, father of the piiso ner, was the first witness. He stated that he lived upon hh mean* and in October last he and his son were stopping at Mr Adams's at Pokeno. On the sth October they had some revolver practice, and after wards tho weapon (a six chambered one) in a drawer, (Left siting.)

THE AUCKLAJND Ev.!_x»il^U STAK, THURSDAY. JANUARY 18.



William Brow, wbo h»s for a number of years past beeen engaged as a nnrse at the Hospitsl died there last night. Ha was an oid man-owas-man, and a member of the crew of one of Her Majesty's vessels on the New Zealand station in the days of Bir George Grey'a first term of governorship here. E. Harris, tbe jockey who rode Knbina on the Maiden Plate on Boxing Day, is at present in tho hospital tnfferin. from peri tonites. It appears that with some other jockeys he was skylarkio_e on the grand stand and he ascribes his illness to a col lision with ova of the lads. Yesterday it was feared that Harris would not recover and his father, wbo recides at Gisborne, was telegraphed for. He has, however, now taken a turn for the better. The open boat Transit, which is to take part in the 20ft. open tailing bost race at the Auckland Kegatta, arrived from Coro mandel on Tuesday last under sail in charge of her owner, Mr Keveridge. Bhe made the run from Coromandel within six hours, very good time, even under very favourable circumstances for such a mi all craft. We understand Sam Dove will take the Transit in hand during the race. Very little business was transacted on 'Change to-day. Prince Imperials have a downward tendency. Starting ft 66s they fell to 545, the market closing with sellers at 555. Queen of Beauty continues steady, but little business has been done, there being buyers at 245, and sellers at 265. Deep Level Cross sold at from 5s 9d to 6s, sellers closing at 6s. Tuere are no other.changes worth special notice, Cne of tbe events at the forthcoming sports In connection with the Eight Hours Demonstration, is an " obstacle race," wbich, though a novelty in the colonies, has been very common at military sports in England of late years. It Is a mi_ture of pedestrisnism with other athletic exercises, and is well calculated to test the endurance and skill of the competitors. The total distance to be traversed is bat a mile. The competitors being ranged in line ruth off at the sound of the Btarter'i pistol till they reach the first obstacle, which is a horizontal boom 12 feet from the ground from which a number of ropes are sus pended. The competitors swarm up these ropes, climb over the boom, reach terra lima again, and make for the next ob stacle, which also' is a parallel boom only eight inches from the ground. Under this the competitors crawl, the corpulent contestants standing a good chance of getting stuck when half-way through. The third impediment is a row Gf barrels, heads and I ottoms knocked out—slung by ropes' to a boom. TJiese barrels crawled through, the now panting mnners make towards a parallel brom fourteen feet h'gh i «gainst which are fixed planks for j ascending and • decendirg- the angle, bsing^about 60 degrers. 'ihOße who suc ceed, in surmounting this obstacle—the 1 arcent vi Kangitoto is.a fool to it-Bta?ger j wearily towards a long boom swinging like a trapf ze. Having swung " head over ' heels" over this, tbe competitors run one hundred, "yaids, and are expected-to , traverse tho leries of booms and barrels again. The event is suie to creategreat | amusement, and five or -b:- of our best i athletes have already atjuouncad that they I intend competing. The prizes are—First, £10; second, #i,t third, a scarf ring. ■ I Medical Piuctttioners wilt find that in in iMpient phthisis, chronic bronchjal affections, complicated asthmatical complaints, and is most cases where tho breathing powers are oppres ■ led and constricted, with corresponding i loss of. vital energy, &c. -Aickin"s Syrup o] Eucalyptus with Jlypophosphitp or Eime and Quinine, is an effective pharamaceutical prepa ration 01. great value.
