the cunning that characterised most of their acta, bought their land from them at . auction through aiwate pirty, not telling the owners « t the land, it was the intention of.the Government to open the harbohr and establish a township that would place great value on their lands. He hoped the House would not set its seal of approoation on such a:. transaction Ihe first duty of the Government was to keep its subjects iv posses-ion of their pro perty. He asked that justice thoold be done to those who had such a claim on them. (Applause.) , _ j Major Atkinson, after humorously stat ing that Mr Montgemery's speech had thrown him in a cold perspiration, said that every member of the House knew that the opening of Kawhiv and establishing a township were ooly a matter of time, and no: member was justified in making such accusations as bad b.-tn done. He was ptepared to go iurtber and say it would not have beeu right for the Ministry to inform private individuals of their in tention to open the harbour, If the hon.

gentleman thought, this family had suffered injustice, let him test the feeling of the House, Major Atkinson theu proceeded

to reply to Mr Montgomery, asserting that the only reason the House hud not met io May was that the House was not ready. Ii the leader of the Opposition believed what he said respecting taxation, he was not doing his duty in not at once taking steps in the matter. Mr Montgomery's accusation of corruution was not againnt tho Ministry, but against a majority of the House, who had passed the estimates. Ihe hon. gentleman made a srave charge against himself, of breaking faith with the House. He (Major Atkinson) pointed out that for 3 years he had endeavoured to get the Jtloads and Bridges Constructiou Act on the statute Book single handed at first, and only last ses sion he had succeeded. He believed it would bs one of the most valuable measures on the S-atnte Book, and would effectually end votes for these descriptions of works. After replying generally to the charges of Mr Montgomery repurchased political support by means ot public works, he defended the elevation ot Mr Brandon to the-Upper House, he having beeu a mem ber of the House of Representati.es for 21 years; and referring to the iuuendoes ro the Premier's elevation, he said no member of tho House would deny that Mr Whitaker was one of the leading colonia statesmen, and that after his defeat be could have got another seat had he wished. Be asserted that the uppo>ition was en tirely to hlame for tbe late bringing down of the estimates last session, He asiced the Opposition if they mean to fight, tufiijbt—to criticise, criticise—and allow tbem to complete business and get »o their, homes. He characterised Mr Mont gomery's speech as low in tone. . . Mr Fish in a lengthy sp. ech trenchantly criticised Major Atkinson's remarks, find ing fault with him for endeavouring to dic tate to tbe leader of the Opposition.

Mr Thompson expressed disappointment re the barrenness of the speech, and said pc-haps Ministers had been unable to asree as to the measures to be brought down. Keferring to Major A tkinson's excuse nt tbe late meeting of the House, he sain there was reason in bis excuse, but they all knew " where there's a will there's a way." If Ministers had not wanted money, the House might not have met yet. They would bs coming down shortly with an Imprest Supply Bill, and as he could not be a party to throw the machinery out of gear, hB would have to vote for it, and tbey would re-enact the iarce of voting money already half expended. It was a piece ot buokum to charge the Opposition with delaying the briopiny down of the estimes. He twitted Major At kinson with bis uselessness in Opposition having been compelled to put Sir W. Fox forward 'o move a motion of no-confidence, and when Sir W. Fox was unable to obtain a seat in the Hou<e, Ilnjor Atkiuaoi brought a gentleman from the Upper Hoa>e to lend his. party. He proceeded to ciiticise' the." Governor's speech going over the old bridge; Mr FULTON having spoken in explana tion of'the vote for gublic works in bis district/ Mr Joyce spoke in reference to the desirability of separating public works expenditure from legislation. The Hoare adjourned at 11.55.

TRAMWAYS IN PARNELL.

Differences between the Borough Council and Company.

Ths following copy of a letter ou tbo above subject, which has been forwarded to Mr F. J. Moss, M.H.K., by the Mayor of Parnell, should be read with interest : "Parnell, June 15th, ISS3. Dear Sir,- The accompanying copy of let er, cut oat from tbe paper, will inform you as to tbe commuoicitlon made by this Council to the Hon. tbe Premier re proposed tramway through this borough. Ihe chief.and.aliuoi-t only differences which exist between th. Borough Council ot Parnell and the Tram- Way Company, are as follows. l.Tht Tramway Company propose to mo trams tbrongh this borough once every half-hour As ihe omnibuses have for a long time been running to and fro at least every 15 minutes, the Council stipulate that tbe public should bave at least the same facility s of travel ling if the Tramway is constructed. 2. The Company propose to use the tramway for the purpose of conveying goods. As tbe main road is narrow, and only Suitable for a single line of rails, the Council ob ject to this coarse as litcely to interfere with the passenger traffic, They do not object to passenger^' luggage being conveyed if it does not interfere with the comfort of the passengers.' The Council suggest.tbat in order to connect other parts of the borough with the present projected- line, the Com pany should permit tha use of any small portion of their line if requested (and they; themselves should be unwilling to extend it) upon an equitable payment being mad> to them for the use of such portion*. I think all other points are agreed.—Kindly do the needful with','the .foregoing,, and ascertain if our communication, of which 1 send you a print- d copy, has been received, -(Signed) R. WaiKKE."

ALLEGED BRIBERY.

27«.e Charges Against Mr W, V, Stevens.

The public interest taken in this case wai evidenced by the large attendance p listeners at the Police Court this morning. It was intended that the charge should b< taken at the conclusion of the ordinarj bus.ne^B, but this did not conclude until nearly twelve o'clock, and His Wor ship having a pressing engagement else where, the Court was adjourned till 1.45. At thia hour, there was a moderate number of persons interested in the Court room. The prisoner, William Vickers Stevens, answered to the information, and the charge against him was read as follows. ---" That you diJ. unlawfully, wickedly, and corruptly, offer to give to one Thomas Wil liam Lewis, he being the Under-Secrer&ry of the Native Department (as you then well knew) as a bribe, recompense, and reward, the sum of two hundred guineas, for him unlawfully, unjustly, and contrary to tbe duties oi his said office, to endeavour to procure the purchase by the Government of certain lands in which you had an interest at Auckland on the Ctli December, 1882 —Mr Theo. Cooper and Mr E. T, Dufaur appeared for the defen dant.—Mr Hudson Williamson, Crown Solicitor, conducted the prosecution. Mr Theo. Cooper asked if the information wus laid for an indictable offence, as no such statement was -made In the summon a, and His Worship replied in the affirmative. —Mr if udsou Williamson briefly stated tho circumstances. The! prosecution was one instituted by the j "iovcriiment, aad win also one in which j they were specially concerned. The,. Bxecutivo, being responsible for the purity j of administration, aceined it to be their I duty to bring the case against Mr Stevens, > believing tbo offence to have been a gross attempt to interfere with the purity [ of admini-tration. ihe Executive bad'; reason to believe that hitherto offences of this character had been of too frequent oc currence, and this was especially so at tho northern end of the colony, For obvious reasons, it had been impossible to biing prosecutions against the offenders. Mr Lewis, who wouid be the principal witness for tbe prosecution, was ac quainted with Mr Stevens, who bad some time ago occupied a responsible position in connection with the Treasury. \i that time, Mr Lewis was connected with the Native - ifice. Soon af'.er Mr

Stev-n'a retirement from his official posi tion, he came to Auckland, and com menced business as a cummissionagent, Mr ' **i» met him here in December, aad accepted au invitation to his house.' i'her was a conversation which >

Mr Williamson entered into at length, aud subsequently a letter was written wb|;h foimcd the grounds of this prosecution, The land which was referred to was in the Coromandei Peninsula, and was known as Matamata Harakeke,—The defendant was evidently a ware that anything Mr Lewis would say wonld have the effect of influencing the dis-

;,o ltimi of tho land. Mr Lewis indignantly Aod scornfully rejected the bribe offered in the letter, and wrote to Mr Steve ns to that fleet. Tbe defendent called npon Mr Lewis subsequently, and pleaded that his letter had been misunderstood, He aid be had no ii, tendon to offer a bribe, but merely mentioned it as compensation for trouble taken. Mr Lewis declined to have ,iiy farther communication with MrStevens except in writing, and tbe latter -ent another letter that day, in which be ag*in disclaimed any intention of offering a bdbe, This explanation was, howerer, not considered to be satisfactory by the Government, and subsequently this action was commenced.

Thomas William Lewis, sworn, deposed t.'-i-t be wss the CJoder-Secretary of the Native Department. He had held that office since March, 1879. He kiit-tv the defendant, Mr Stevens, and had known him about twenty years. He oelieved Mr Stevens waa in the Govern ment service when he entered it, in ISC3. He was then clerk to the Tiea sury. The acquaintance was "imply tbat which exists between officials in tbe s-iinc building. He had met Mr Stevens frequently, and conversed with him. He had seen very little of Mr Stevens during the last twelre or fourteen years, but he '< new tbat he was in the railway depart ment, and had nret him on different occa sions during tbuc period. Remembered coming to Auckland in December U-t in company with Mr Bryce. Believed it was tbe end of November, or pubu a it was October tbat he came. Re collected durii g that visit meeting - Mr Stevens near the entrance to Go vernment I.'ouse in Prineeß-stri-et Did not know till then that he wss resident in Auck land. They, met and sli- ok hands, and Mr Steven* inviting him in to rce Mrs Steven", he went into the house, and spent five or ten minutes in tbeir company. That was oa thi 4th ecember. On the following day, Mr .Stevens called to sec bim at the Native

tfice, and directed bis attention to an ad vertisement in a newspaper which he nought The newspaper in question was produced, and the advertisement relat; ng to i md at Matamata riarekeke point, d out. Mr Stevens said he wish d to dispose of the land, and he replied that land purchase was outside bis depart ment, and that the proper course would be to communicate with Mr Gill, tbe Seer, ttiry for Lasd Purchase. Mr Stevens said they were anxious to dispose of the land, and witness suggested tbat he might telegraph to his brother in Wellington, askiog him to see Mr Gill, and ascertain whether be was willing to purchase. To the best of his recollection, something was said abont seeing tho Native Minister, but he Said the oest course would be te communicate with Mr Gill; This was about all that took place then. The interview was a' short one, Mr Stevens thtnkiog inn, and witness understood ho intended to pursne the course recommended. .Next day ho r. ceived a letter (produced) a» IpUow*; ■,■■ "187, Queeh.stfeet.'lJth Deceinbelr,-18i52. My dear Mr Lewis : Since speaking to you yesterday re my laud, I have thought that ii thought you cannot do anything in the nutter directly, you might casually oliude to it, and "say > oil know tho B»evenses, and think they wish to sell. I do not wish you. to do anything to compromise youtself . ' <tt , all, but as every labourer is worthy of hit hire, and bs tbe sale just,now would so materially benefit me, I would gladly make a present of two .hundred - guineas if tha »ala was brought about, tn the meantime I will.act upon your advice, and send to Mr Gill about it, but I think it would do a.lpt of good perhaps if you were to prepare the way a little. The land, adjoins the Coromandei C-oldfield, and must eventually be a portion of thatgoldfield, aod might ultimately prove a large fortune to me; bnt, as I said before, money at the pre-ei't time is of more valu-i. Knowieg yon will do what yon can, I leave it in your Jhand?.—l am., &c, Walter V. Stevehs. •m reading the letter he.was very much upset, and on receipt of it, he wrote a letter to Mr Steven's. He thought Mr Stevens was making an attempt to bribe him, Bis reply, was as follows :—" Native Office, Auckland, ,6th December. W. V. Stevens, Esq.: Sir.-rVbur note of this day, which I have this moment received, has filled me with astonishment and indignation. lam surprised that any one who has held a position like yourself, in the public service ior so many years should have

so little sensa of what is right as to offer a bribe to a public officer. Although I have known you for so many years as a fellow official, I find that I have been mistaken in your character. It is very evident also that you do not know me, otherwise you would not have presumed to write me a letter which I can only regard as a gross insult, making dishonesty and d shonourable propositions, of which I sh'uld not have thought you cipable. When you came to see me yesterday, and J, referred you to Mr G.ll, 1 gave you the advise which I should have given to any other person, I told you tho purchase of 1a,..d was in Mr Gill* depart moot, and that from him you could ascertain .whether the Government were likely to entertain your offer. 1 must inform you that;l can not treat your letter in any way as private and confidential, and shall submit it to the Hon. the Native Minister, who, it is not unlikely, may direct proceedings to be taken gainst you.—T. W. Lewis. Yon will understand that I can no longer recognise you as on acquaintance.— T.W7L. After he sent that letter,; Mr Stevens came np to tee him, and asked for an interview. He declined to have any personal connec tion with him, and Mr Stevens replied : <'Yon have entirely misunderstood my let ter. I have too much respect for you and myself" to think of offering you a bribe."' .Witness answered that bis letter wi,s already before the Native Minister and whatever he might phoosc to write I s-hould at once place before bim. Be had not written any other letter to Mr Stevens than that read j He told, Mr, Stephens that he: TCPuld jie glad if he w.tnld explain away ■what he md wri't"n. Mi Steveus oppeated exci'ed, and' tie Hiftfj£s*f!X SW"BfTOJS<RI s If. Mr Stevens ttien lefL. Subpeqnehtiy on thesatrie'day, lie received a lettVr from' Mr Steveuf,

Mr Cooper said he wonld make no-object ion to these letters, but these were remarks on the letters by Mr Lewis and the Native I Minister, If tbi; communications went be j fore the grand jury, he asked tbat tbese

j minutes be posed over tiis Worship re i, plied that this would be donc [. The letter was then tend as follows :— , ■ "187, Queen-street, 6th December, ISS2.— s; T, W. Lewis, K.<q : Dear sir,- -Your note '; of thn morning received. I am both ! grieved and perplexed beyond measure that , ' you should hive so misunderstood my letter . and misjudged me, as the tenor of yonr I reply indicates, and I really did not ! see any harm in my asking you as an old official friend fcr advice, nor in my request that you would if you bad an opportunity call the attention of tbe proper authorities to the ! fact of my haviog the land for sale. I . assure you that nothing was further from my thoughts than to offer you a bribe. The : words in my letter, "I would gladly make* ' a present," simply meant to any outside i party who might demand a commission 1 as 1 have a person now employed endea vouring to negotiate a sale to private parties. ' I distil ctly stated in my letter that " I did not wish you to do anything to compromise ' yourself at all," and I trust I know myself . and you too wtll to dream of offering a ' bribe. I trust to your honour not to 1 take advantage of a lapsus lingui, or - a badly worded expression. I withdraw ; the letter. Please think no more of It— : Your* sincerely, Walter V. Stevens. Be believed the last letter was written by "Mr ; Stevens. He had nothing so do with tha j Land Purchase Department, although this ■ was a branch of his department. He did - not interfere with the departmental arrange mints. The Itative Minister was the minister to permit tho purchase of native or other lands. A recommendation from him to purchase tho land would, he believed, have considerable weight with the Minister. He would do it in the ordinary office way, although the administration of tbe department was not within his functions. Mr Stevens knew the position which he belli.' Cross-examined by Mr Cooper—Mr Giil is the officer in whose department such a transaction as this would take place. On the 6th December, when Mr Stevens had this iuterview with bim, the defendant appeared very much surprised at getting such a letter from the witness. Tlil i was the case for the prosecution, Mr Th'eo, Cooper, addressing the Com t, said that there was no care on behalf of the Crown. The evidence disclosed no offr-nce.

. and he submitted tbis on various grounds. ' Tbe letter itself was not an offer, and did ' not disci,'Se any attemut to hribe Mr Lewis, Mr Sto-ens did not effsr tbe money to Mr Lewis or an>one, He simply said that be !he was desirous to sell his land, and would

gladly give ihe money if he could In the letter, too, Mr Stevens said distinctly that he did not wish anything done that was wrong; ,he did sot ask for any in fluence to be nsed } but simply asked that the matter might be mentioned to Mr Gill. Tbe evidence of Mr Lewis shewed that Mr Stevens was excited, that his letter shoti'd n-t ba-o been taken

in the manner it was. Taking the three letters together, he held that nothing was firtbcr from Mr Stevens' mind than an attempt to bribe The second question was oue of law Supposing that the letter did contain any offer to bribe, even then he held that no ode ace was disclosed. Mr Cooper quoted from various authorities, and held even if the offer of 200 guineas bad be n mode and acceptfd by Mr Lewis, he might have rendered himself liable to dismiss il, but not to pro-ecu tion, as there was no crime. Mr Lewis disclaimed any power in the Land Pu> chase Department, and although h j might bave gone to the Native Mini»ter and attempted to use the

influence, it could not bave been In his official capacity, bnt as one frlen-i to another. Even if thd latter coil! '# c mstined iut" an attempt to bribe, fi t Lewis bad no ant f •_• in the land purchatfe department, aud consequently there could he no attempt io fnfluaice tbe dis charge of his duties. There could be no crime, theift'oie, and he submitted that the country should not be put to the expense of Binding 'his case lo the Supreme Court.—Mr Williamson argued to the contrary, and held that this was not the Court to decide tho»e points —His Worship said he would reserve his decision on the points raised till Saturday. Defendant was allowed to go on bis own recognizances of £50,
