SUDDEN DEATH.

Thb body of a womau, recognised as that of Mary Ann Steele, was found quite dead at eight o'clock this morning in Chancery Lane. The deceased was well known to the police, as she had frequently been con victed of petty larceny and dmukennese. We understand that deceased was formerly io good circumstances, but a love of drink had reduced her to a state of misery and rice. An inquest was held on tbe body this afternoon before Dr. Philson, coroner, and a jury, at INQUEST, • Thomas Burrows, foreman. Sergeant Kiely represented the police. The follow ing evidence was taken: -Thomas Cullen deposed that he had known the deceased for a number of year?. Had been living with her. Had been employed on a farm at Whangapoua, A fortnight ago she loft for Auckland, he followed her and found her lodging at Mrs Crowley's iv Chancery Lane, She had been drinking heavily while in town. Had sold her clothing for drink. Went to bed at eight o'clock, and at four this inorniog wit ness got ont of bed for a drink. Deceased also wanted a drink, which he gave her At 8 o'clock he found her dead by his side Mary Ann Steele was a widow. She had buried two hasbands. Her age was abuut 60, as near a« he could tell. He had been supporting her for the last four year?. Was not married: took each other's word. She waa very much given to drink and lying out at night. When she left Warjga p ma she had good clothes and more than £5, which he gave to her; she promised to fake care of herself, and take the pledge ; she did not do so; he fonnd her in a very weak s'ats, her boot?, clothes, money, were all gone; all had gone in drink; she was a quiet son], and when drunk would lie down anywhere. She was not out one wet night. Wonder ing at her being so still, he called Mra Crowley and Mrs Webb, both were in the same room, and they found him dead. A verdict of " Death from natural causes, accellerated by intemperance," was re corded.

SUPPOSED MURDER IN OTAGO.

( By Telegraph.—Kress association.)

DUfIEDIP, this day. The following further particulars are to hand of tbe murder of Ah Chin, China man, near Teviot. Deceased and the informant, Wan Kee, were in a cave on the b*nk of the Cluthit River. They were smoking opium, about 7 p.m. on the 16th instant, when Wan Kee fell i asleep and was aroused by the report ola gun, when deceased called, "I am ehot; lam dying." Footsteps were heard outside the cave, but the informant was afraid to go out for some time. On goiog out he saw no one. On the police visiting the scene they found deceased dead, with small shot wounds on his right breast and head. The cave.was not, distrnfce<i, and money and a watch were found on the^, deceased's person. Mo motive; can" be assigned for the murder. An inquest will be held on Saturday.

SOCIETY OF ARTS.

PfflOß to the close of the .Exhibition, the Committee decided to make a revision in the classification of erne of the 'competitions. H was acknowledged to be inadvisable to group together "flowers, fruit, and foliage' into a single class, to be rewarded with one prize; and hence it was decided to divide it into three; awarding a prize to each. Under this new arrangement, the wisdom of which is obvious, Miss Stod'lait recedes the prize tor "flowers" with a study of lilies; Miss L. White is the recipient of the award for fmit," while Mips Helby keeps, that for "fol'age." The. arrangements of the exhibition have on the whole been excellent. On Messrs. Holland and Josiah Martin has devolved most of the hard nork; and to their efforts in the main the success of tbe undertaking is certainly due. Mrs Clark, Miss Home, and Mrs Martia ought also to he Mentioned as having rendered valuable aid in perfecting internal arrangements.! The Art Exhibition has been a great success financially. Yesterday over £40 was taken at the doors, and the hall at night Was crowded to excess, a fact which shows that the interest taken by the public was Increasing rather than abating. On- ad missions and season tickets a total sum of £150 has been received; tq which bas to be added the proceeds of the sale of catalogues. An edition of more than a thousand was sold out, and last night there was not one to be had in the hall. It is estimated tbat the attendance has been double that of last year. The je facts are v«ry encouraging, as is also the one that the Society carries forward to its credit a substantial balacce.

THE LATE MR E. COSTLY'S BEQUESTS.

Additional Farticulars.

In our issue of yesterday we gave only the circumstances attending the death of the lite Mr Edward Costley, and £,uck particu lars as were then obtainable, regarding his noble benefactions to the cha'itles and institutions of Auckland. But little addi tional remains to be told. The will was made somewhat hurridly, and in conieijuence the directions are not quite so explicit as they might otherwise have been. The old gen tlemanmadetbe testamentary disposition of his estate as late as Monday last, Mr tjamuol Jackson, of the firm of Jackson and Knssell, and Mr David Hean, manager of the National Bank, being seat for to assist him in the atrangemeut of bis earttjly affairs. The provisions of the will are very simple. The money is left to the various institutions with the provision that the several sums shall be used for the best ad vantage of the institutions receiving them The executors will inform the Hospital Committee and other bodies of the wishes of the testator. Jn accordance with Mr Cosiley's expressed wish, an endeavour will be made to have the money applied to specific purposes in connection with tbe benefiting institutions', and tbe bequests will be known as '-The Costley Be quests." The total value of the legacies to individuals is but £3,000, so that fully £120,000 will remain for distribution among the seven charities and institutions. Mrs Alexander Mackje receives £3,000, and it is devised that it shall be for her sole use and tienetit. Mr James Coates, accountant of the National Bank, and with whose father, tbe late Mr James Coates, Clerk of the firet Executive Council in the colony, Mr Costley was well acquainted, has been bequeathed £400. Mr Samuel Jackson, for many years the deceaseds legal adviser and executor, £403, and Mr D. Hean, executor, £100. Mr Costley having proved the mo3t muuificient benefactor tho city of * nckland has yet had, it is proposed to give to his remains thu honourof a public funeral. Kegarding this proposal, with which we most heartily au'iee, we have received the following letter :—

To the Editor: Sir,- I think you will agree with me, after reading the list of munificent bequests whicb. the late Mr Coi-tley made in his will, that it is the duty of the Auckland public to accord to his re mains the honour of a public funeral, and I would urge that His Worship the Mnyor should, in his oilicial capacity, request that the funeral should not take place until, say Saturday afternoon, when workiug-men, who will be so largely benefited by his noble gifts, would be able to attend.—lam, &c, C. Williamson. 1 The question having been raised as to the liability of the estate to pay legicyduty—the money/having been bequeathed for public and charitable purposes—we made enquiries at the Stamp Office to-day, and find that the societies and institutions benefited will be called on to pay probate duty. ,

MAORI PRISONERS SENT SOUTH.

We understand that in consequence of the overcrowded state of Mount Edoa Uaol, instructions were received from the Govein-ment a number ■of the Maori prisoneis recently sent to gaol tor tbe assault on MesJM Uurathouse and >'ewfham, and riot at" Alexandra, shonld be fonvardedtotheJ'OUth. Arrange ments weremadef jrthciraccorumodationon the lliiu'uu, and a detachmentof sixteen pri soners were sent out to Onehunga on Tues day under a guard of warders and police. They were placed in the eteoraae of tho steamer, and took their departure by her on Tuesday afternoon. Their exact destination is not known, but it is understood that the majority will be placed in Lyttelton s-aol.

BREEZE AT ON EH UNGA.

An Onohunga storekeeper named John McMahon was arrested this afternoon on warrant, charging him with an asiault upon Serjeant Greene. This is only a minor charge, it being understood that the more serious one of rescuing'goods placed in tha. custody of a bailiff will be preferred against him. McMahon was burnt out by a recent lire, and on Mouday his goods were s-eized under distress warrant. Sergeant Greene is the bail'ff of the Court, but he placed a deputy named Dye in posse sion, It is alleged thatMcMahon entered the'roop where the latter was, and removed a ' ewing machine and other goods "When, leaving the premise?, it is said that he locked the door and nailed down the window, keeping the bailiff a clo.e prisoner for several hours, and preventing him from communicating with tbe Sergeant. The alleged assault is a trivial matter, McMahon having shoved Sergeant Green away while he was talking to Dye. The c;.sos come before the Police Court tomorrow.

There are several sorts of figs, which vary in size according'to quality, according to.the country in which they are growD, and the kind of tree they are pro duced from. In the trade there are time principal kinds recognised, viz., the yellow, or otherwise called large figs, the white, or Marseillaise, ! anjtl the* violet, or medicinal. The large' or violel 'figs,' are pectoral, emollient, and ljysati^e, japd they form a portion of the tour pectoral fruits.

[ADVT.] PROPOSED APPLE PAUM COM • PAN*. ' . (To the Editor.) Seb, -We, the undersigned, haying had our attention drawn to a letter in yester day's "Herald," over thejuwi de pheme of "(Joe Who Knows1," in wnich the writer ridicules tho idea of growing apples to pay at Id per lb., we think it only right to state, in/justice to the pro mote^ of the. Apple Company, that in our opinion they should have no difficulty with the land and facilities of cultiva tion they possess,: in growing apples to pay at even less than one penny per lb,, though we. do not think it reasonable to include cost of boxes and freight at the price. Having examined the property on which operations are already in progress and proposed to be continued, we have no hesitation in saying that, in onr opinion, it would1 be ■difficult'to find anywhere about Aucklaud a block, with the same scope of land, so admirably mited to tha require msnts of a company going into apple-grow ing on the same scale as this one. The facilities for forwarding the frnit to market are also exceptionally good. The price of the land itself fs very reasonable, namely £25 an acre, while the stock of trees on hand for this season's planting out is as fine a lot as could be produced in any part of the colonies, and is cheap at the trade price of ...£4O per thousand, at which they are valued;. Jn conclusion, we have every con fidence that the company, if carefully managed, will become a prosperous one,' : and we know of nothing more likely to i yield handsome returns, under good . management, that this company is likely to •be wi'hthe land and stock they start with. i'-Yonr*, &c, ..',.!. . . :, .Signed . i W.
