"THE ROSE OF AUVERGNE."

As considerable interest is felt in the pro duction of Offenbach's sparkling operetta, "The Rose oi Auvergne," in character, at Herr Schmltt's concert to-morrow night, wa here subjoin a brief outline of its highly diverting little plot.: —After a fantasia overture, the scene opens ■pon :tho kitchen of a villago cabaret or tavern in Auvergne discovering Fleurette, tho young and buxom landlady, busily engaged in tho preparation of a dinner to which she has invited her rival lovers, Pierre, the blacksmith, :whoso "strength and valour make him feared," and Alphonse, the cobbler, who is,"soft spoken," and "once a week does him his "beard." Suddenly sho breaks heronly stew ton, whoso loss she bemoans, as she like wise does her inability, for want of shoes, to join in a danceuponthevillage green. She then retires In order to purchase a now pan. -During her absence Pierre enters, hearing a new stewpan and a bouquet as presents | for his mistress "in proof ,of his bosom's troth." He places tho artiole where they :_tay easily: be seen, and then withdraws so as to return and .enjoy Fleurette's surprise, i Alphonse noxt appears, bearhfg as love- Offering a pair, of dainty , little shoes, places them on the table, and retires like Pierre. Fleurette: returns, espies the stewpan, and, in her delight, is •Joined by Pierre, who proceeds to assist her in the cooking. He perceives, Alphouso's presents,!takes,one and corneals it among the vegetables, and then, distracted by Ljealotfsy, so far forgets,. himself as to put some: candleß and bacon into tflP broth, whither the flowers and Alphonso's .shop in <sonu»ny with tho vegetables also find.their -way. Meanwhile, Alphonflere-enters, and the rivals glower upon and scowl at each other. Flenrette prevents two or three pitched battles, and then tho three sit down to tho meal, Alphonse, mortified at tho discovery that on making his present tlioro was only one shoe to be given. Tho scone at tho dinner is highly amusing, tho broth being fonnd to bo as thick as glue and redolent of leather, the fun being intensified by tho flshing-up in succession of the candlo wicks? the flowers, and tho shoo, after which, of course, Pierre retires discomfited with- the souptureen under his arm. Alphonse accordingly wins the fan' inn keeper. If tho action is laughable, the music is equally froiicksome. Its various numbers are, a song by Fleurette, Heigh, ho I Which to Choose;" Pierre's song, "This Stewpan, Bright and New ;" recita tive and romance, "For Her Dear Feet," by Alphonse ; duot (Fleurette and Pierre), " Go Along ;" duet (Alphonse and Pierre), "You Blacksmith, Look You Here—You Cobbler Mind Your Eyo ;" trio "iThe Rustic Wedding;" and Finale, "My Hand is Yours" Com bined with the attractions of the ' loy Symphony," and the choice selections in the first part of tho programme, this delicious little opera should prove . powerful "draw. _____

The Bank of New Zoulond and Trust Funds.

Wellington, this day. The story about tho trust funds aud Bank of New Zealand turns out to be another "flam " of the member for City West, and tho opinion is growing here among members that Mr Darguville is either vory green, and easily stuffed with a yarn, or is reckless and malicious in his state ments. It turns out that the trust funds referred to are Government Insurance funds, and Mr Luckie, the Commissioner, two years ago mode a round of tho banks with a view of improving tho general posi tion of his department, and removing the charge hurled against tho travelling agents that the Government did not got such high interest for ' policy - holders- as was ob tained in other mutual companies. The highest offer ho could obtain was 5J per cent, from tho Bank of New Zealand, and this being 1J por cent, more than was paid on the Government de bentures, he at onco accepted. Tho interest was tho highest rate obtainable, and was extraordinarily high for such v large sum at that time.

Gajiaoe v. New Zealand Loan and Meucantilb Auenoy Company, demurrer. —Mr Theo. Coopor for tho defendants, in support of tho demurrer, and Mr Hesketh for the plaintiff, in support of tho replica tion.—This was v demurrer to tho third replication of tho plaintiff, in answer to tho defendants' fifth plea. The action is an action for trespass aud conversion, tho total damages claimed on tho three counts in tho declaration amounting to £0,000. Tho plaintiff is a sheep-farmer residing at Tcmukn, in Canterbury, and in 1880 mortgaged his run aud sheep to the Hon. James Williamson to secure tho repayment of 0,000. —The plaintiff, in liis declaration, alleged that tho defendants wrongfully broke and ontered tho run and' removed the sheop. —A number of plena wore pleaded, but were not called in question in the present proceeding, excopt the fifth plea and the third replication thereto. Tho fifth plea alleged that the plaintiff wrote a letter to Mr Williamson stating that ho was unable to carry out his arrange ments, and that Mr Williamson authorised tho defendants to act ns they have done, and that tho plaintiff volun tarily and knowingly permitted the defen dants to outer and take tho sheop upon that understanding. Tho replication demurred to alleged that the letter was revoked by telegram before it was acted on, but did not deny that tho plaintiff per mitted the defendants to act on the faith and understanding expressed by the letter. Mr Cooper argued in support of tho de murrer, and contended that tho plaintiff was estopped from denying tho leave and license arising out of the circumstances. He also contended that tho letter was a statement of fact, and could not be revoked.—Mr E, Hesketh contended that the.replication was good, and that the revocation of the letter put an end to any authority tho defendants, might have had. He also submittal that tho letter could be withdrawn at any time boforp boing acted on.—Both counsels wero heard at length, and His Honor reserved judgment.

Nathan said a Company had offered to tako n risk of £70,000 at rates that none of the sound and stable offices could compete with. Mr Graves Aickin roiterated this state ment Figures were quoted ns to capital, etc., clearly indicating tho Australian Mercantile Union. I wired asking these gentlemen for their authority. Receiving no reply, I instructed Com pany's Solicitor to apply to them. The following telegram is the onlyjunswor received:—" Auck land, 23rd August Do not hold myself re sponsible for statement in any newspaper or telegraphic reports.—L. D. Nathan." The state ment reforred to appeared in Auckland " Herald," 18th instant, and is absolutely untrue. My Dunedin Manager had arranged to tako a lino of £70.000 from Briscoo and Company, Dunedin, the partners in which firm are large shareholders In my Company, at a fair premium, but tho sound and stable Companies Mr Nathan referred to step in und secure the business at rates from ten to fifty per cent under our quotation. Tho policy of my Company, which has tho wealthiest and most influential body of shareholders in the Aus tralian Colonies, is utterly opposed to the reck less cutting and competition practised by, the sound anil sfablo Companies. Unless Messrs Nathan mid Aickin aro prepared to make the amende honourable, they must take the con sequences attached to the publication of false and malicious reports. ' -J.

Since we brought gj 9 the subject under tho notice of w householders, many havo habit- 0 o uated themselves toitsu3e,both tr1 S for registers and ranges, and o H would now decline all overtures _ _a to use any other solid fuel. We Jj P recommend those who do not 2 use Coke to adopt the following bj W plan:—First, send to the Gas * Company for a few baiw of their Household Coke; lust the quantity that can be taken into the 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 with coke (the larger lumps may bo used for this pur pose) : upon this f onndatlou lay i 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.
