OUR STREET TRAFFIC.

(To the Editor.)

Kir, —In your criticism upon the proposal of tiie City Council to put into operation or introduce a by-law to prevent the destruc. tion of the water channels and kerbing in the main streets, you have hardly given a fair consideration to a matter which, how ever, you allude to in the following words:— "If the exigencies of the traffic demanded the restriction." Now, that is really the question at issue. Looking to the very larpe traffic at tbe ptesent time in Quiien-street, with every prospect of its inciease, and the knowledge that within another twelve months a double line of tram rails will occupy a portion of the road way, is it not rather prudent than other wiss that the Corporation should give a not' 3of warning to all those who have not already made provision lor receiving tne bulk uf their merchandise at the roar of their building to do so ? The proposed by law ia simply a copy of ono in existence io all other towns, imagine drays aud wag gons bucking iv or discharging goods in George ami Piit street", Sydney, nr, indeed, in any town iv the colonies of any importance I The question cf the damage to the water-chaunelling, and the impossibility of keeping it iv lepair to withstand such constant weight, although ot some consideration from a ratepayer point of view, having rega d to the unfair allocation of expense euiailed for repairing, uol; only the chauucls, but the footpaths dainuged by the delivery of heavy goods day by day, is of secondary impor.ance ta the making of safe provision for the tver inctcasing traffic, fcoino days iv Queen- Street may be seen a two-horse waggon Laded with probably one or two bundled cases of fiuit backed into the channel, monopolising more than one-half of the road whilo unloading. Is it possible any channelling that ooald be laid could stand such regu'ar pressure without being damaged ? it may be a matter of some in convenience to those who have not already provided means of receiving their goods, 1 he difficulty, however, is one ihat may be overcome, aud iv judging of these matters, the comfort and convenience of the many mi)Lßt bo of paramount importance to in dividual interests—that i 3, if we are to progress and keep pace with other cities,— I am, etc.,

Fro Bono Publico,

[Our correspondent ignores the point which we raised—that the City Council's action evidently arose from a desiie oo their part to evade their obligation to main tain the street channels and kerbs. We agreed that it was a fair nutter for regula tion if thers was any nscessi y shewn, but against the increasing traffic uf Queen-street there should be placed the speedy prospect of new outUts from ths haibour being pro vided via Uobson street and Emily VlmCf, which Litter routes will carry all the traffic between tbe shipping aud the higher portions of the city.— _D E.S.]

TWO SIDES TO A VIXED QUESTION.

(To the ftditor.)

Sir,—There seems to be a determination on the part of the Mayor and City Council to bring the CD. Act into operation, They wilt entail everlasting di.grace on them selves and the community by such a step. I send you remarks on its operation in England, where, if it is not aheady, it will ■most certainly ere long be aboli»hed.— Yours, &c,

CommonS-j.se.

P.S.—What say our 43 members who declined to vote for its abolition here to the following extracts from Dr, C. B. Taylor's speech at Exeter, which I commend to our Justices of the Peace who may bave to administer theContagiousDiseasesACt:— " Some months ago a woman was brought up at (he Magistrate's Court at Dover, wlieu the following scene occurred:—The trained advocate, paid by the Government to prosecute, opened with a speech in which he said that the magistrates were nor thete to consider whether the law was a gpod one or a bad one, but simply to cany it out, etc. The police spy then 6Wore that he had 'good cause to believe' tbat tbe woman was a prostitute. This the woman denied with tears and asseverations, whereupon Mr Alderman Rees, the presiding magistrate, said he would like to know on what grounds the spy's belief was founded. 11 shall not allow the man to answer that question,' said the learned advocate, 'Why?' said Mr Rees. 'Because,'said the advocate, 'the law only requires the man to swear he has good cause to be lieve ; he may not be a-ktd what the cause ,is.' 'Then,' said Mr Rees, 'I decline to commit on such evidence.' Here was a deadlock, and after some discussion it was agreed that the spy should state his grounds, when he said, ' Well, I saw the woman talking to a man in the street.' ' Well, that's no evidence,' said Mr Rees ; whereupon he said he had seen her talking to two other j men. ' Well, 1 suppose men and women i may speak to one another,' said Mr Rees ' Now,' said the worthy alderman, * I don't wish to tako any advantage of my position. Tell me, have you seen this woman in a brothel, oraßSOciatiug with bad characters ?' -md the spy was lorced to admit that he had not. ' Then,' said Mr Rees, ' I dismiss tbe case.' 'Stop,'said the brother magis trates, ' give her three weeks, the magis trates in other towns always do.1 'I'll cut nil my right hand before I'll give her three weeks,' said Mr Rees. 'Then give her a fortnight.' ' I won't give her a fortnight.' (Cheers.) ' Then we are dis agreed ; there must he another bench.' So, Mr Rees, seeing the woman might suffer if he were obstinate, said, ' Now, let me give her a sentence that will come within the four corners of the Aot and satisfy my own conscience.' This Was agreed to; so Mr Rees said, ' I order a day's imprisonment; you havo been detained a day, and are therefore discharged.' (Loud cheers). There is a man England may well be proud of."

(To the Editor.)

Sri,—Will you kindly find space for the annexed extract from the " Weekly Despatch," published in London on 14th July -last i—"CD, Acta. — Portsmouth, Thursday night.—At Portsmouth Quarter Sessions to-day, the Recorder strongly animadverted on the suspension of the Contagious Diseases Acts, and asked if it were intended to revert to the old condition of things, when women wero uncared for, and died like dogs in the streets, or to continue the work of the last ten years, during which SOO women were reclaimed in one borough? The women were better dressed, took more pride in themselves, and were more orderly and decent. Disease vas reduced to a minimum, and clandestine vice was almost entirely extinguished. The grand jury unanimously passed a resolution endorsing the .observations of the Recorder, and-re quested that the resolution mipbt be for warded to the Home Secretary," At a time when there is some outcry against our Councillors for introducing this Act into Auckland, the above Is woith considera tion,—! am, yours, _c,

NEGLECTED CHILDREN.

(To the Editor.)

Sir,—l would like very much to know why the Board of Education has not long since put tho compulsory clause in force, and compelled parents to send their children to school, instead of allowing them to have the full run of the streets, learning all that is vile, picking up bones snd bottles and anything else they can put their hands on, and at the same time concocting and telling the most outrageous false hoods with the most unblushing effrontery. Here is a case in point. This morning, while busy at my work, in answer to a knock at the door, a boy asked if he might have the bones, bottles, _c, about the place. As a rule, I will not encourage these lads, having been lather deceived in them. The boy spoke nicely, and 1 allowed him to gather what he could. When he had fini-hed, I a«ktd why he was not at Echool instead of at such work. He looked at me very j pathetically and said, " I have to look '■ after my mother. I have a mother, six i brothers and sisters, and no father." I felt I grieved for the eh Id, gave him sundry | things, aud sent him away after awhile. • I saw him and another child (a little girl) sitting on the opposite side of the road with a large bag of bones, and I thought possibly they would he hungry, so I called the girl to give them something to eat. 1 iasked her if she waa ihe hoy's si-ter— "Yes," "And sojouhaveno father?" "Yes, I have." "louhavu?" "Yes1' (laughing). You can.guess the rest. Now, sir, this is only one of scoies of such cases that come before one every week. These gatherers of booes, &c, are a nuisance—a peat, The children are allowed to stsy away from school to go about and lie and steal, &c. Mrs Dr, Potts said one true thing, and that was that more than half the pareuts were not fit to be fathers and mothers. We see the truth of it every day. In the district where I live the children run the streets all day—aot those who are too

young to attend school, but child™ f™-, o years upwards who have*SSSSfted sohool. It is a real grief and daily Jffi* me, and yet we boast of on'VS privileges, and what are we doing" wSd it not be well if Mr Laishley wou d act in sympathetic accord with many like %_» and cause a sweeping reform in this nsttof he Board's work? Do, Mr Editor take nn the matter for the good of the hundr e d 3of ignorant and uncared-for young Zll f am, etc, X ones .-l

SCHOOL HOLIDAYS.

(To the Editor.) SiR,-Un reading Mr Laishley'a letter in your issue of this evening, it Mem. 2. that he has forgotten one point in m^-" 8 his contrast between t^e holiekv^. teachers and those of other 2 6 men. Members ef the Sffißjffi professions, at any rate, have the satisbV tion of knowing that the more they tR themselves into their work the greater wS be their remuneration; a result by means accruing (o the teacher, wko m». slave his soul out and very frequently not get even bare thsnks for „. s e _f„., 0' Having worked under more than "ie Education _oa-d in this colony I „„„_ what .the work is. It may be VouS -so is the tiead-miil. Only tho^e vh„ have tried it know the braiu-bsnumbir. effect of the "standards" day aIR? week after week year after year. I have often had Mr Laishley's argument address!. to me by. those apparently as ignorant _ he of what a teacher's work is <'(>hi >ec what a lot of holidays you teacher get and I have always found one question sufficient to meet it, " Would you _ willing to do my work for mv navr Again : "So Uttie worry 11" T^ earne t teacher, let me tell Mr Laishley, has the children just as much upon his mind as the lawyer his clients, or the doctor his patients, and spends as much mental enerev and incur* as much physical fatigue at lea" in his work, as does any other professional man, who has not, moreover, the gods munv to serve that the teachers has, namely, the Education Board, the Chairman, Secretary and Jnspectior thereof, the Committee, and the thousand and one people who think themselves qualified to teach a teacher to teach. I could easily wear out your, patience upon these points, but having' no longer any personal interest in the matter I will close with a suggestion, If the' Chairman would go in for a steady yeai'a turn of teacher's duty in some good school, he would then know a great deal more of the work, its difficulties and mental and bodily fatigue, than he does now; aod would be much more in " sympathetic accord " (that useful term of his invention) with the teachers than he is at present, or is ever likely, otherwise, to be,-1 am, _c, Certificate '

HELENSVILLE NEWS.

Opening of a Court of Foresters,

Thb steady progress of the above Order all over the world, and more particularly hers in New Zealand, must be very satisfying to those who take the initiative in still farthering the extent of its ,opera* tions, ranking as it does in named, cal strength, and in actual securities as well, as the premier society oi the wotld. The opening -of the above Court will add another "century" ere long to the now existing millions of the brother. hood. On the 2-th ult, a public meeting of residents was held in the above township to decide: First, whether a benefit society was required, which was carried in the affirma tive ; and second, whether they should attach themselves to the Ancient Ord of Foresters or a branch of another popular city order. It is needless to say the meot. ing determined unanimously to establish t court of the former, agreeably then to.their wishes, a dispensation was applied for, and granted by the District Executive in Auck* land, to open the new court on August-th,at which about 20 Auckland members at* tendtd, D.C.R. Sheppard, D.S. Garratt, D, T. Greene, CR. Jones |S.C.R, Patterson, Sec. Allen, .P.D.C.R. Auger, f.D.CR, Keesing, Staunton, Greene, Kattens, Stichbury &c, Upon arrival of tho train, the delegates were warmly welcomed, and conducted to Host Walter tcott's well appointed hotel. At eight o'clock pre. cisely, in one of the large rooms of the hotel, Court City of Auckland was opened by its officers for tho rcceptwsfc of (ho members of the piopoacd new court. Everything being now in conformity to law, D.S. Garratt read and handed over the dispensation, in which it was decided to n*mc the Court I" Star of Helens ville," with three of the brothers' names inserted as foundeis. The new member! then proceeded to elect their own officers, which rcsulttd as follows:— C.R., Powell; S.C.R., McDonald; Secre. tary, J. Griffiths; Treasurer, Howlet; 8.W., Scott; J W., Tynaa ; 5.8., Lester; J. 8., Collier; Surgeon, Dr. Edgelow; I rustee.', Scott, Mills, and Powell; Atieji. torn, Btllance, Greenland, and Lester; all of whom wero then installed ia office by Bro. Auger, assisted by Bro. who read the charges most impressively. Business over, all adjourned at fli_ in vitation of Bro. Scott to the large dining. room, where covers were laid for .60, .$— usual loyal and other fitting toasts were given and responded to, . "The7Se** Court " and " The Host and Hostess" coming in for a large share of the good feelings of the company, The remainder of the night was passed in singing wit piano accompaniment. Several recitations were also well given. Amongst the selected songs, Bros, % W. Allen and T. Jones fairly electrified the company by theit rendering of "Bold Robin"Hood" and "Menot Harlech" respectively, the latter being given with much feeling and in the composer's own language. — (COHMCI gATBD.) » '.-I'..g

The Blue Ribbon Army.

Of late there has been a noticeable phenomenon in the spiritual atmosphere of this part of the world, and people in yonr city and elsewhere are, it seems, just find. ing out that there is such a place up north as Helensville. lhe dark days of the past are becoming brighter, and the black clouds are rolling away. The more than ordinary advance of spiritual " en terprise of late has' exejcjwd a mighty influeuce for good, "thoxfgh, indeed, there' is a large' proportion of the inhabitants who, through the Jong continuance of dry sing-song sermons, have apparently fallen asleep, whoine. the advent of the Salvation Army to axoue and awaken them up. We have not tb|9B zealous Christian people yet, howeveivbut we "keep believing." Since those? .two energetic advocates of temperance, Mesßjs Hampson and Potter, paid us a visit on tho 10th of July last, with the object of starting the Blue Ribbon Army here, it is* fact worthy of mention that this orgstita tion have secured to themselves a firm foothold; and though they baye.,ao» rßpidly increased numerically, yet lie*' progress is characteristic of earnestness of purpose. On Saturday evening last: lhe first public entertainment took place in the public hall, and judging from the l«W number present, one could eridenw perceive that the Army in Helensville ban gained a popularity as well as an interasi from all classes. The programme for the evening was not an unattractive one.< Ta* persons who kindly lent their services seemed to be all wearers of the " Ut* Mr J. Brame (Auckland) delivered anj» pressive address, and in the twenty minoje? allowed him gave us an interesting accooat of the struggles of by-gone temperance or ganisations in the endeavour to force tseir principles on the drinking people ot those times. Another speech IWW delivered by Mr Lawry, a student from The Three Kings, and a sound impression was evidently created. A biitf speech rendered by Mr Bates created no small amount ol amusement, and all who heard him W» Saturday night will expect to hear alia again next meeting, AmoDgst the artiste? who sang, and who really WO» proficient in their iC'c, may *" mentioned the Misses Ballans, himmcr, anf Vercoe. The gentlemen also were veiy good, especially Mr Greening. wl™ was loudly applauded". A slight ?**_* ancc occurred now and again during t meeting among tho more restive P 0*"011-, the audience, but on the whole, order was well maintained by our able chairman, Captain T.
