This was the evidence for the proseou "counsel then addrotsed the Court at some lenctb Mr Lusk showing that suihcient i notice had not been givuc, and that a spirit I of malice instigated the act of defendants. Mr Mahony, ou the other hand, argued j that there was no malice. The men had a j bonafide right to do what they did, the in mates believing-as they do in Ireland that they would hold on against the world. He could also show that the seven 1 witnesses were not of goof), moral character, and that the house was a house of JlUfamc, and a disgrace to tho cemetery, iic con sidered there was no prima facie case to answer," and Bia Worship would do well in uismissing it, as no jury would be found to convict the men. His Worship said he could not speak as to malice, but a wrong had been done, and he felt that he could not, on his own

responsibility, dismiss the case. Tho prisoners were then cbaiged, and the depositions read over. When we went to pi ess the proceedi»g* had not concluded,

DROWNING OF ANDREW ALLAN.

ALL doubt as to the fate of the young man Andrew M. Allan, who, it may bs remem. bered, disappeared under somewhat suspi cions clreurnstancas en Sunday, the 29th nit., was removed yesterday morning, when his dead body was found flout iDg in tho harbour near the Graving Dock. Tbe man* faco was unre cognisable through having been eaten away. In the pockets of his clothing there were several letters, about £2 in money, and a Pott-office Savings Bank book,: which showed that tbe last deposit had been made on July 2lsf, and that there was a sum of £16 10s still to his credit. In addition to this, on his clothing was found a gold watch, and chain, and on one of his fingers were several lings. The body was conveyed to the Morgue.

Inquest.

The inquest was held at Glecson's Hotel this afternoon before fjr. Philson, Coroner, Sergeant Claike represented the police.— W. J. McDonnell, dock-keeper, deposed to seeing the body floating off the breast work, Albert-street, at 7.30 a.m. yesterday. He informed Constable Carroll, and that officer assisted him to secure the body and take it to the dead-honso.—The next wit ness was Robert Barringer, who de posed to finding the deceased's hat float ing in the water en the 30th ultimo, gave it to Sorgeaat Clarke.—At 3.30 p.m., tbe Coroner was examining Constable Dodd, who searched the body, and found watch, chain, rings, money to ihe amount of £2 Is, and a number of'letters in the pockets of the clothing.—lt was also tbe intention of the police to call Zillali Guild ing, servast at the Queen's Jdcad Hovel, who would prove that the deceased was In her company on the night of Sun day, the 29ch ultimo, and gare her a ring a* a keepsake. Mr Atkia (Cousins and Atkin) his employer, and Charles Grey, a young man to whom de ceased, on tbe Saturday pi ior to his death, said he was tired of his life. The tendency of this evidence would also be to show that deceased wes melancholy during the last fortnight of his existence. The inquest was still proceeding when we went to prest.

ARRIVAL OF THE THREE CHEEKS.

She is Sent to Quarantine.

THE topsail schooner Three Cheers came into harbour this afternoon with a fair northerly breeze. Inttead of coming straight up the harbour, she dropped anchor below the qnarantine hulk, and it was then seen that she was flying the y»llow flag. «.n impression appeared to pre vail in town that there was disaase on board, bat it does not follow that s ich is the case. The Three Cheers is from Suva, and as small-pox and measles are both said to bo prevalent there, khe Is compelled to remain in quarantine until the customary inspection by the Health Officer takes place. There had been no communication with ber up till four o'clock this afterno)D.

CABBAGE BAY COALFIELD.

Tna party which went from Auckland on Friday last to visit the site of the coal dis covery at Cabbage Bay," was a small but to some extent a fairly repre sentative one, and and the remit of the visit has been to confirm previous reports of the value of the find. From Coromandel, the party proceeded on Saturday morning to Cabbage Bay, where an aiea of 600 acres of land, snowing outcrops of coal, have been secured by the Auckland association, who are striving to have the field developed. The coal was found »t Harahura to lie in a seam of 8 feet in thickness, having alove it a seam of shale of the same thickness, and under neath a thin layer of ironstone resting upon the sandstone grit, The works to test the field have been carried on at a point some distance from this spot, and also at Te fihi, over a mile from Hurahura. Four men are employed at each of the places, and it would seem that two distinct seams of coal are tapped by the drives being put in. After making a complete Inspection of the operations, the company returned to Auckland, the little steamer Buby having been chartered for the trip both ways, Ihe company combined Messrs W. D. Campbell (F.G.S.), D. Oxley, T. L. White, Tho«. Wrigley, Walwr i*>wdtn, W. Dowden (jimr.), Anderson, and Cooper, tind they reached Auckland shortly after midnight of Saturday.

FIJI AND QUARANTINE REGULATIONS.

Letter from Levuka Health

Officer.

Ths declaration by the Xew Zealand Government that Fiji is an infected port appears to have created some surprise at the Islands and the Health Officer at Levuka, in a letter to Dr. Philson, of Auckland, per Penguin, which arrived to-day, appears to make a formal protest. The communication referred to is as fol lows :-

•Levuka, August sth-To the Health Officer, Auckland, Sew Zealand.—Dear sir,—The Penguin takes a clean bill of health. I wish to refer to the haphazard and unttao statements.averring the pre valence of small-pox, cholera, measles, etc., in this colony, which have been re cently circulated in Rome of the Australian and New Zealand newspapers. I forward you tbe following items of information togarding the arrival of the ship Phoonah at this port with cooliea from .Calcutta : The Phoonah left Calcutta on the 7th April. The first case of modified Bmalbpox occurred on the following day, the second case on the 9th, the third on the 29th,the fourth on the 30th, and the fifth on the Ist of May. All recovered, The first case of cholera broke out en April 12th, and the last and fitty-fourth on Miy 24th, in lati tudes 27' 10' South, longitude 85° 17' *ast. Sixteen died. The first case of me isles oc curred on April 9th and the last on May 4th, in latitute 6° 9' South. All recovered. The ship left Fiji on June IMb, and was never admitted to pratique. The immigrants were landed at the quarantine dep6t, where they re mained for 29 days. Up to the 17th of July, there had had not occurred any fresh cose of infectious disease. The Phoonah carried a medical bilker and two ce:tificated Fiji assistants, and was daily and liberally subjected to various disinfecting proces es, No cases whatever of any infectious disease bad occurred in Fiji in con sequence of the Phoonah's arrival up to this date, and the immigrants are now at work and in good health on the several estates to which they were allotted I have the honour to be,—(Signed) Bolton GlanvillhSCarney, M.R.C.5.,G.M.0., health Officer, Levuka."

THE ROTOMAHANA ENQUIRY.

(BY TtfLEGXArH—PKKSS ASSOCIATION.)

DUMEDIN, this day. The Court of Enquiry into the accident to the Hotoimilmnn found that the grounding of the steamer and consequent damage appear, by evidence, to have been caused by : — (1) the unexpected strength of the current netting in towards the shore; (2) misjudging by Captain Carey of the distance itorn saore at 3 it. ai.; ami (3) the apparent projecting of the reof from the coast much further than shown by the chart; that the nature of the loss or damage done was injury to the hull of the ship to the extent ot £4,000 or £5,000. First, that her grounding was paitly due to the cuirents continuing to run to tbe eastward longer than anticipated alter ebb tide had made, henco taking the port bow of the steamer and netting her further to tho thore than the estimated distance, Second, tho atmos" plieiic conditions led to the commander to misjudge tbo d stauca, and the omission to heave tho lead at three o'clock left his mistake as to tho distance from Slope Point undctectsd. In addition to thtse two causes for striking, it teems probable from the evidence of tbe oorn wander, and the known opiaioD, and otlmr navigators, that the Pinnacle Rooks, between wiiich tho steamer was so skilfully handled, extend much further to seaward than they are marked on the chart. The evidence of the commander and offl:»rs tends to show that the waot ot knowledge of the wind and weather off the southern ports of the coloiy is a drawback to safe navigation between them ) and owing to these not being tele graphed between Bluff and Dunedin, the iiigh winds off tbe coast would be unknown and nencs due allowance for their Ufluunce on the currents cannot be made. It Siems prubable that the current off the South Coast was influenced in the cate of the Rotomahana by the sale wind is sa:d to have prevailed previous to her reaching Waipapa, and only reported on her reach iug the Bluff after striking, "the evidei.ee further indicates that the dangers ot this part of the eoast| would be lessened, if not wholly removed* by the erection of a light house on Waipapa, which would be assisted by placing a luminous bell buoy at tbe don eorous Toby Kock. The Court also wi»h to bring into notice tbe apparent absence of Governmout encouragement, similar to that given by the Board of Trade in Britain, for officers of ships registered in this colony making themselves familiar with judging distances from shore by day and night, taking tbe bearings of bead lands, lights, etc., ascertaining tin Bjiecd of the ship from the engiue's evolutions, taking frequent observations (amptftudes, alti tudes), and keeping a log or note-book of the same; believing from the cvid*nce adduced that such a practice would tend to make them expert navigators, and hence lessen shipping casualities on this coast Tbe heaving of tho lead when near shore would also be of great advantage, and the result as to depth »nd nature of bottom would, if pencilled on charts, fotm a valuable guide for future navigation. Thirdly, tbe C mrt have to meution their satisfaction at the clear evidences given b> Captain Carey and the officers of the Roto mahana, and likewise to call attention to the zealous promptitude and skill with which every precaation to secure the faUiy of the passengers ani ship aft»r she bad ssruck. The tvidence con clusively shows that with the single exception of omitting taking found. ings at three o'clock when Captain Carey cnn-ldcred it necessary tochaige the ship's course, he acted in all respects as a careful navigator and experienced commander; and the discipline »v the ship reflects credit on all her officers. 7he nautical assessors concuned in this judgment1

The "Herald's" own historiographer hiving blundered again in assigning the birth of Schumann, tbe composer, to the ytar 1815, now learns de termined to brazen the matter oat, aid in proof of the correctness of his as-er tion refers us to inch rtcoudite authori ties as the "Musical Almanac" (probably his own) and "Tke His tory of the Popular Classical Con certs at the Conservatoire, ParisT' a work that has not yet reached Auckland. If our sapient contemporary will but refer to Grove's "Dictionary of Music and Musi cians" (the first part of which was published In 1878) to Phillips's "Dictionary of Bio graphical Eeference " (published In 1871) to G. Vapereau'a " Dictiouaire Universel dcs Contemporafns " (published at Paris in 1858), to F.J. Fdtis's "Biographic Univcrselle dcs Musiciens " (published at Paris in 1860), and to Maunders "Biographical Tieasury" (14th edition, published in 1873), he will find that Robert Schumann, German musician, composer end critic, was born in 1810, his Almanac notwithstanding.
