Mottam and Donald being a tie for the second prize in the Demonstration Handicap1 —having secured tight points each—it was decided that a quarter of a mile race open to all contestants for the Handicap, should take place on Saturday, At 5.30. on Satur day afternoon the course was marked off on the cricket ground and the following men came to [the scratch : - Cummins, Mettam, Monnoch, Pickering, and Donald.

A 300 yards consolation, won by,the veteran, O'Hare, with Mottam secoud, brought tbe proceedings to a close. A match for £20 aside, to take place iv one month, has been arranged between Monnock aud Cummins, It will be run in three heats-100 yards, 200 yards, and a quarter of a mile.

AQUATICS.

The president and vice-president of the Waitemata Yacb. Club have resigned and the whole arrangement is likely to ' burst up." Why is this thus?

It is probab'e a Kowing Association will shortly be formed with tbe object of making arrangements for periodical contests in the harbour. West End is expected to move first in tbe matter. It is to be hoped the movement will be soon and determined.

Edward Triokett has challenged P.a>ce to row bim over the champion course for £100 a side, in wager,boats. Pearcesays he will row him in waterman's skiffs when* ever he likes for £50 a side, as ha has not a wager boat fit to pull in,

NON-ATTENDANCE AS A JURY MAN.

(To the Editor). 7 - j SIR,—In your paper of the Ist inst. taetg' ' appeared a notice of the infliction of _- penalty on Mr McMillan for non-atbmdafflß as a juryman. In hia case an important consideration has been overlooked. There is a wide difference between employment: in one's daily avocation, and appearing ia a public court. In the former tho mii^, may remain perfectly calm, whereas in the latter thero is not a little- tliay, tends to produce an excitement thai, : may be very hurtful to the man whose state of health is not in the best condition,' This! understood and brought out was, we believe. tbe excueebrought for wartiby Mr McMillan V' for his absence, Anyone acqnaihteU-.;. with him could not suppose it as likely that?;-- he: was capable of wilfully and knowingly i treating a Court with contempt, Mj7M«?fl Millan is no less conscientious than. ; kini|s. and.benevolent, and consequently he.i__Wsj_ be relied on as ever ready tp uphold* lisMm dignity of any lawfully constituted author. ; . ity.

After bq doing I, returned to the . tall a _ nnail'^ where my clothes were placed, anda.dj^BE| my dress. 1 then felt my pockets to u WejfjM all was right, but unfortunately di>cnveied^* 'all was wrong, having been compktly robbed of my money, amounting to a £I note and eight or nine shillings in flilyet|W conclude tbat a number of tagahonds frequent the baths for the puipose oi robbing peoples pockets.—l am, Set., A.W.C.

THE COMMON PEOPLE.

(To the Editor.) ,\ f '. SIR,—A proprosof a recent statement his print, a great French statesman and d.».,. tinguißhed author once casually dropped ": the remark, " The Bible is the most democratic book, in the world. "Yeats ago I was arrested by that ob--' servation of the celebrated Frenchman; then set to examine, aud was somewliat - surprised at the result— elevatedaud estai dea my forefinger, and took down hoar; ehelf Lev, Doctor David King's.confeed , Cruden, and tbere found ten smallest piiiit; columns of exce lively compressed matter, , headed "People," "The i'eof.le," &c,, ■ and even then, that which I wanted and was,[ in quest of, was not there; found it under th_ l head "chosen,"—"l have laid help upon ■> one who is mighty, I have exalted one • chosen out ofthe peop'e." This, one of the. grind prophesies of the Messiah, theaia,; anticipation and "desiie." And, altu all,, how exact the versification I How true to tho very letter I Messiah's nominal father: | was, you know, an honest carpenter-man, , And King David, then and there i_rmedis£

ever and always, and all through recorded - hißtory. Aud surely wo must not now for get the great Martin Luther. But an ano.

nymons mythological letter-writer, appear ing in a Mew Zealand print, most strangely and v?ry rashly asserted that by the divine! scriptures the people were reckoned.of small account; that the Apostles did new.. appeal to the people on matters of church: polity. ' Whereas some have alwats under-! stood the exact contrary. See, for one instance, appointment of deaconß for secu lar affairs Acts 6: "Look je out from! among yourselves," &c a.d - &c, .-Th. literaiy sir William Temple sdd,, "Ittv vernment of all by all- government ofthe-: people—is the great secret of happiness and, safety." Napoleon Buonapoite the TaA. said his moito was, "Kvery ■thing' for the people, tothicg by tto people." His fate and the distraction..of France show tha inferiority-of his policy. And what was the great little Coisicaa himself ? The Creator is impartial, Gems and diamonds and gold ate moetly picked; up out of the dirt, The greatest, men-ia:. all history were chosen out of the;., people., perhaps despised ; emerged aud rose, rfta cessation of full inspiration, by diligent culture, from out of the common people,- I am, sir, &c, W.
