To Kergeant White : Amy Swanaborouxh is not my proper name ; I'm a married woman. My right name is Healey. My husband, I believe, is at Canterbury. May Sutherland deposed that whenJMillcr and Kelly came to the house of Miss Swansborough she was on a visit. The men wanted lemonade on credit. Miller said he wished to make her a present, and after writing two cheques and tearing them up, he wrote a third for £10. She accepted it. She sent a boy for a bottlp of champagne. Was positive it was not from Miss Swansborough's .viae cellar. She slept at Newton that ni^ht. She sent Miss Swans borough's servant to the bank with tbe i chequo, and, to her immense surprise, the cheque was honoured. Miller ollered to pay the next day, but she refused to accept it; told him she did not sell drinks ; he was supplied with a bottle of lemonade, and he still owe* for it. (Laughter.)—To Sergeant White: She shouted a bottle ot champagne; she took a fancy to Miller, and did notliketobemean, he having made her a handsome present. Did not remember telling Sergeant Kiely eho knew nothing about the cheque, -r- Sergeant Kiely deposed that Miss Sutherlaud told him that she knew the cheque was drawn out in her name, but Miss Swansborough took it.—His Worship commented upon the evi dence, and was. of opinion, judging from de fendant's own statement, that there wa. a sale of liquor.—Fined £10, aud costs £116s.

PARLIAMENTARY.

(FROM OUR SPECIAL REPORTER.)

WELLINGTON, this day. Reward for Gold Discoveries.

THK Goldfields Committee submitted its report to the House of Jaepreaentatives yes tetday. At Mr Cadman's request, the <. hairman, Mr DcLautour, had called a special meeting of that Committee to con sider a series of resolutions which he (Mr Cndman) proposed to submit. The follow ing were carried:—"That as _. further in duce-aent to prospecting, a rewsrd of £2,500 Bhould be offeied for the discovery of new goldfields in any portion of the Colony, except in such districts in the North Islaud as may be specially excepted from by notice published under the hand of a Minister in the Government ' Gaaotte;' on the follow ing conditions : -1. That the discovery be situated not less than ten miles in alluvial and five miles iv quartz from existing mines. 2. That no grant be paid upon any application until it be proven that not lsss than 30.0Q0 ounces of gold have been extracted within_ two years from the time of the registration of he discovery, and three years if in quartz workings. 3. That there shall ba ap pointed by the Governor from time to time, as may bo required in any mining district, a board consisting of throe members, one of whom thall be a Goldfield Warden or Resident Magistrate, to consider any ap plication by persons claiming to have made a discovery; the decision-of a majority ot the board to be final. 4. That any person discovering new gold workings, and being desirous of obtaining a reward, shall im mediately report such ducovety, with full particulars, to tho Warden or Resident Magistrate of tbe district within which such discovery shall be situated, and the Warden or Resident Magistrate shall forth with register the samo as an ap plication for reward. 5. That £500 ba given for a proven discovery, but if the sum so to be given in any one year be in exceis of th* rate, the amount avail able be divided equally. 6. That the sum of £2500 be placed on the Supplementary Estimates as a rate in aid of prospecting. 7. That the mining industry of the Colony having now become so important, thU Com mittee would suggest that in future the Minister for Mines should make an annual mining statement to the Bouse similar to that made by the Minister for Public Works." And the proposal of Mr Cndman is tbat an Act should be introduced offering facilities for mining for minerals other than gold. This Is to be considered at the next meeting. The House has referred these matters to tho Government for consider ation.

The Native .Land jjaws Bil

The Native Land Laws Amendment Bill was further considered in committee last night. Mr Betcb moved the insertion of a new clause in lieu of cause 6, as published yes terday. The Committee divided on the ques tion that the cUuieremain t.i printed : Ayes, 40 ( noes, 11. The clause was letained, and added to the bill,

Mr KELLY moved a new clause restoring the Crown's right of pre-emption, subject to certain conditions. The clausn was nega tived by 38 to 6. Mr J-RTCs moved twelve new clauses for the pmpose of taking from the Government a large amount of power in regard to native lands and uiving these powers to the Chief Judge of the Native Land Conrt.

Mr aTEVENS was astonished at Mr Brybe shirking his proper responsibilities and ab rogating the functions of Government. These new clauses would operate moat un justly in certain cases. Progress was reported, and the House rose at thirty-five minutes past one a.m.'

BOARD OF EDUCATION.

Thb weekly meeting of this body was held this afternoon, there being present :— Messrs R. Laishley (Chairman), D. Goldie,. W. F. Buckland, Theo. Cooper.

CHAIRMAN'S R_POBT.—The Chairman's report was read, but the only p-«int of interest about it was the statement that £4 bad been expended in filling np a hole at the __elson-street School.

LIGHTKIHa-CONDUCTORS.—Tenders as follow were received for the work of pro viding and fixing lightning-conductors to certain schools :—flewson and McKemi __, £119s each, and 4d for every foot above 50 feet; John Petford, £2 5s eadb, and Is per yard fixed extra; George Mackie, £2 7s 6d each| Branston and Forster, £7 10s each, and Is Gd per foot for extra. Scholarships.— A letter was received from the Colonial Secretary, acknowledging receipt of Board's resolutions re scholar ships, and stating that the question raised in the second resolution was of too im portant a character to be dealt with at such an advanced stage of the session.

Dress Circular. - The consideration of a circular on dress to the pupils of the Girls' High School was deferred till next week,

The Sunderland Disaster. — The Chairman claimed leave to draw attention to a matter that did not ap pear upon the order paper. He said tbat the recent sad and startling dis aster at Sunderland, whereby nearly two hundred children lost their lives at a place of entertainment, simply through one of the doors opening inward instead of outward, should act as a warning, stimulating them to see that all pos sible means were taken to avert the possibility ot any such occurrence at any of their schools. He thought that means should be taken to a. cert in how the doors were huug in tbeir schools, and to have them all so constructed that they should open cutward. Be,, therefore, moved tbat the Inspector and Architect should be requested to submit memoranda on the subject at the next meeting of the Board.—Agreed to

Thb Teaohbks' Fattjrday Drill.— Mr McKenzie gave notice of his intention to move at the next meeting of the guard, "Tbat all assistant teachers who have completed their certificates in classes D and E be exempted from compulsory attendance at the training College on Saturday,"

Tamahere and Rukohia.—Mr W. A. Graham, of Tamahere, appeared in suppoit of a petition from tbat dissrict, praying that the proposed new school be erected at tbe Narrows, instead of at Steel and Gribbles (Bukuhis). — After considerable discussion the following motion was passed, •'that tbe Hautapi pchool be errcted on the Bteele and Gribble site ; that a new school be built in place of present Bant_pn School, nearer io Cainbridg-, on such _ite near Cambridge as may be hereafter decided on ; that a new school be erectei fronting the Camfcridge-Uami'. t-n road, on the three acres proposed to be given by Mr W. A. .Gr.jham, and that Mr O'Sulliv-n be requested to repoit on the question of the site neari r Cambridge, and also on the advisability of buying an additional two acres at Tarns h re; and that in respect of the Tamahere and Knkuhia Schools, Mr Aliright be in. structed to prepare plans and spi,cificatlouß at once."

Penons who sood appeals against levels advertised to be fixed by the City Council should state plainly the gronnda of their objections,

In France a lunatic who commits a mur der is not always tried. A certificate often locks him np for life, or until he is certified sane. This sjstem is not very satisfactory, because itleavesalarge margin forarbitrvy favour; but the re*olution taken in tbe case of Attscbuller, the Prussian who fired at random on the crowd on the Boulevard dcs Italians, in Paris, killed two persons and wounded two others, is marvellous. Be is deemed a lunatic, and therefore will not be charged for mnrder.bnt, being a foreigner, the French Government will not keep him out of the way of doing more harm, but simply expel him as a dangerous person, and the foreign nation to which he will be sent mu't look out and deal with him as it sees fit.

Though the system of plurality of wives is not, theoretically, an intrinsic part of Morroonism, yet practically all the dis courses, all the efforis of the elders, aro devoted to this suhjcci, and it forms one ot their chief dogmas. Their authority for polygamy is taken irom the examples of * the patriarchs, and from bt, Paul's injunction, "A bishop, them, must he blamelts., the husband of one wife," which they interpret as meaning that as bt. Paul enjoined bishops to bave "at least" O-e wife, it is fair to presume that they had several. Evidently specious in their reasoning, they nevertheles teach that a man's chances for salvation increase with the nnmber of his wives, and per contra, that an unmarried man is to be eterpally damned, for has he not disregarded the | command, " Increase and multiply !" Making this broad distinption in regard to the future, they carry it out in the present ia political affairs—for a man's votes are in proportion to the number of bis wives, and further, every married woman casts a vote, ■i

We _] t_ recommend those who do not m O übo Coke to adopt the following C, w plan :—First, Bend to the Gas • Company for a few bags of their Household Coke; fust tho auantity that oan be taken into le premises conveniently, bear ing in mind that, weight for weight, coke is nearly double the bulk of coal. Next, having cleaned the grates of registers and range of ashes, partly fill them, say, with ooke (the larger lumps may be used for this pur pose) ; upon this foundation lay your kindlings and local coals. Now start your fire, and re plenish often with small quanti ties of local coals. Those who learn this, the A. B. C. of laying a fire, for cooking a breakfast, will not readily forego the most certain and quickest method with solid fuel. For the mode of burning Gas Coke without coal see adver tisement In Herald.
