Police Court Business.

(To.tho Editor.)

gm ( —lt is very much tho fashion of lato by i gome of your correspondents to criticise the i action of Justices of tho Poace in not at tending tho Police Court or of not attend i I"S punctually. As a matter of fact there ~ afe a number of gentlemen who attendi at considerable personal inconvenience, both ' i regularly and punctually, It is necessary however, that those who are so ready in making complaints should not write quite so generally ; these gentlemen got no pay, and give a large amount of valuable time and service to the public, ai; 1 should not be classed with paid magistrates. That some no not do their share of the duties pertain ing to the appointment iB no reason why others should bo written about in a manner neither oivil nor truthful.—Yours, &c, Viator.

Abbott v. Waring.—Death of the Cardinal.

(To the Editor.) Sib, —This remarkable case came on for hearing at the District Court on Tuosduy last, and aa the newspaper reports, possibly in consequence of the absence of tho re porters of the two daily papers, who were present but during a short interval, the case, which lasted from the opening of the Conrt till 6 o'clock in tho evening, was necessarily but partially reported. I may state that on the evening of the 19th May I left ray homo on a valuablo horse, the Cardinal, accompanied by my boy on a pony, starting about 5 o'clock. I proceeded through Newmarket and Kemuera, return ing by the Beach Road through Brighton to my residence m St. Goorge's Bay Road, Parnell. When I reached the cutting abutting on tho property of Mr T. Morrin, I alighted and walkod till I reached the rood which passes up to the Chinaman's garden ; at this point I remounted and trotted my horse to a point within a fow yards of the angle of the road at tho foot of Brighton Hill, where I tapered my horse to a walk ; at this juncturo I heard wheels coming down the hill at a most furious rate; a knowledge of the rules of the road, as well' aa tho instinct of self-preservation, prompted me to hug the nearside of tho roud, which I did so closely to its fringe as to allow nine-tenths of tho highway free; my little boy passed over the crown of tho rbad on the off-side, and pulled up his pony on the grass on the south side of tho culvert; walked my horse In the direction indicated, liollooed again and again at the top of my voloo ; but notwithstanding these pre cautions, the oart was driven so rapidly that the off shaft just grazed my right leg and then passed with terrific force into the flank of my horse. Tho concussion was so frightful that the animal, about 17 hand? high and most powerful, shook under, me like an aspen leaf. What passed through my brain during this time may be more readily conoeived than expressed. Drowning men who have been resuscitated inform us that in the moments which apparently precede dissolution the memory is invested with suoh enormous power that the whole of the previous lifetime flashes rapidly before the eye of the mind. It was so with me when empaled on the shaft. Longfellow's lines stood ont1 — "Art Is long and time Is fleeting, Aud our uoart3, though stout and bravo, Skill, Hto muffled drums are boating. Funeral marches to the gravo." The moments of my steed I knew were numbered, because nothing animate oould rccoir* io severe a shock and live. I ex pected one of two things: eithor that he would drop dead under me, or that his plunging would be terrific The latter was the case. With one bound ho roared for ward—l supposed then to fall dead, but not bo; he continued backing, plunging, rearing, curvetting, in the most frightful manner, its being dark at: the time, and I expeotod to land over the fence at the bottom of the stream. Eventually, I suc ceeded in calming him, and then leaped for life. I came up to the man Waring, who was in a maudlin state. 1 said: " You have killed my horse, and I'll bold you respon sible for the consequences "—my little boy simultaneously riding up to my assistance. Now, in his evidence, Waring most dis tinctly stated that ho came down the hill at 0 slow pace, that ho stopped within two yards of where he charged my horse with his shaft, that he nover saw my little boy on his pony, and that ho did not know that tho horso was struck till on reaching his home he saw blood and hair on the end of the shaft, although the Intestines of my horse, as Bhown by the pest nu>rtem examination, proved the fact that tho shaft went nine inches into his entrails, and thuß constituted tho buffer which rendered so easy the sudden check to Waring's cart. When I alighted I led home my bleeding horso with a bleeding heart, soliloquizing, "Milkmen must drink! Abbott must walk; and horses must suffer and bleed. The whole creation must fcroan and travail in pain." Homo was reached, the veterinary sent for; all that skirl and kindness oould do was laid under contribu tion in order to alleviate the sufferings of tie noblo animal. Well, now let us trace the career of Waring. This gentleman started from the Alexandra. The defend ant's learned counsel spoke of the wonder ful attributes of his animal,- as to his sagacity in stopping at different places, and passing on when the milkman served to the next place. I can testify to this. No school boy better understands punctuation than this horse. He oan put" "in his comma, semicolon, colon and fullstop— if he doesn't always pot in the latter at the hotel it ia Bimply because of th 6 application of the whip. On the night in question the fullstop was put in at the Alexandra, where the thirsty master refreshed himself with beer, a long beer, a very long beer, and 1 should say a very strong beer ; as a con seqnence, it all but made a bier for me. And though ho afterwards sprung a leak, he was scientifically Coopered m the Court. Mrs Partington vowed she never took her brandy except on two occasions, viz., when she was ill and when she was not.; Waring, if he did nbV imitate her example, certainly believes what is found in the books— • • Man wants but little here bolqw,' • - ~ Nor wants that little long. , . ; He certainly believes— ' .'.'i .. Mao wanta but Ilttto beer below, j ~ . But want* that little strong. , ■■. ._ ; ,h ~ On the night in question he had it to his heart's content, beer within him, company beside him. Jolly as a sandboy he merrily travelled along; dropping his friend he came down with a foil swoop, killed my horse, and no thanlcs'. to Mm that his rider was not also similarlyoolpposed of; if not killed, it had so powerful aueffecton me that the shook, in the twinkling of an eye, sent ma from the frigid to the torrid zbne ; and if anyone requires a cure for cold feet I can recommend this kind of treatment to exceed anything yet discovered in thera peutic*. But my horse!— Yes, he lived on Hi terrible agony. I watched him with great anxiety in articulis mortis. I left, and then, revisiting, found him (like Moore and Townshend's spirits) departed. Yes, " There lay my steed, with his nostrils all wido: Hat through It there rolled not the breath of And the foam of his gasping lay whlto on the And cold as tho spray of tho rockrbeaten surf.' He did not, however, die intostate. His will I found. It was addressed to Mr Warme1, although the namo.was written "Wire In." It-was-as follows:— ---" If you tako a shaft and drive it, ( 1 ■ And go stick a fellow through, *' Government ain't to answer for it— , Clbd'll send the bill to you." I am, etc., J. Abbott.

Tho next morning he save him the bill (produced) for £60 en dorsed by A. Mackie in favour of Henry Devoy, payable in three months, dated 16th June,, endorsed by Alexander Mackie, farmer, of Muddy Creek. Knew the hand writing of tho prisoner. Went with the bill to Mr Laurence Levy for tho purpose of discounting it. That gentleman dis counted it. Handed the money to Devoy. He relied upon the genuineness of the endorsement.

This was all the business.

CHORAL HALL.

Miss Donovan's Annual Concert.

The annual concert to Miss Donovan wm given in the Choral Hall lost evening. There was a large attendance, evidencing the popularity of tho fair htneficiaire, who is well known aa an accom plished piun iato, and who also holds tho position of organist to St. Benedict's Church. An excellent pro gramme had been arranged for presenta tion, and although several alterations became necessary at the last moment) the concert wfts in every respect an enjoyable and successful one. Mr Knox, who was to have contributed two solos and take part in a duet with Mrs Kilgour, was unfortunately prevented by severe indisposition from ap pearing. Mr Edouard (said to be : from Milan), was evidently suffering from the effects of a bad cold, and was compelled to retire after making an.ineffectual attempt at the first few notes., The programme commenced with an excellently-performed duet on two pianos by Miss Donovan and Mr Ahgelo Forrest, the selection being from ."Faust." Mr Edwards followed with thetenoraongi "ThouArtsoNear,"in whioh he was most successful, while Mrs Kilgour was loudly applauded for an excellent ren dition of the »ong "When the Heart is Young." The serenade by Miss Stephen aon, with viojin obligate by Herr Tutschka, was one of the best items of the concert, and the. performers were recalled and! bowed their acknowledgments. Miss Donovan was also honoured with a recall for her brilliant execution of the piano solo "Danslesßois." Miss Staunton, who was in excellent voice, followed with the aria " Coinmo Bello," from "Lucretia Borgia." The audience testified its appre ciation of the morceau by an enthusiastic recall. '"My Queen," by Mr Long, from Dunedin, and Mr Edouard's failure to render the "Outcast," brought the first part of the concert to a close. Mr Knox was to have commenced the secsnd part with the song "Gallants of England," but in consequence of his indisposition, Mr Long filled the vacancy with a song, the name of which did not reach us. Mr Long would do well to remember that con cert vocalization should always be with out effort,, and consequently should be careful not to force his upper register. The song, "It was a Dream, was very clearly and expressively rendered by Miss Stephen ,son; While" the piano solo, "Polka de la Reihe," by Miss Donovan, was a brilliant and spirited performance. Miss Staunton sang "Robert toi quo J'aime" with such effect that she fairly'" brought down the housb." The morceau fully justified the rapturous encore it received, and the fair vpcalist responded with "None Can Gainsay It," Mr Edwards appeared to great ad ■ vantage in "Tho Memory of the Past," and equalled "his previous effort by the satisfactory and expressive manner in which he sang " Come into the Garden, Maud," in response to an encore. "Vasnti" was most pleasingly rendered by Mrs Kilgour, and having been recalled, she also, sang "Love's Request." "Consider tho Lilies was fairly sung by Mr Boyle, and an excel lent concert was brought to a conclusion with the violin solo, " Air Varie," by Herr Tutscbka, and a pianoforte duet, " March Honogrois," by Miss Donovan and Mr Angelo Forrest.

FURTHER HOSTILITIES AT TONQUIN.

Severe Engagement.

(Received 27—2.30 p.m.)

Hono Kong, Juno 26.

Intelligence has been received of a fresh outbreak of hostilities be tween the French and the Chinese troops at Tonquin. Accounts to hand state that a detatchment of Frenoh Regu lars, numbering 700, were proceeding to occupy Langson, an important town on Tonquin (Chinese frontier), when they were attacked by a large force of Chinese who had been holding Langson in violation of the treaty concluded last month, between France and China. A severe en gagement ensued, resulting in the repulse ef the Chineso, who are said to have num bered 4000, with heavy loss in killed and wounded.

The cosualitios on the side of the French were given as 49 killed. In consequence of the outbreak of hostili ties, M. Patenotve, the French Commis sioner at Tonquin, has been ordored to Pekin to demand reparation from tho Chinoso Government for the attack and violation of the Tientsin Treaty. Tho French fleet, under Admiral Courbet, has further been ordered to proceed north wards to support Patenotre's demand.

BOARD OF EDUCATION.

The ordinary mooting of tho Board of Edu cation was held this afternoon, there being prosont—Messrs Moat (in tho chair), D. Ooldie, J. W. Carr, S. Luke, Thoo. Cooper, and J. M. Clark.

Chairman's Kbfort.— This report stated that Thursday, 24th July, had been fixed us tho day for receipt of nominations of candidates for election to tho vacant seat on tho Board ; and that Mr W. S. Stewart, 8.A,, would enter upon his duties as hoad master of Cambridge High School on Ist August. Nelson-street.—Tho City School Com mittee wrote rothoadvisability of advertising for a headmaster of Nolson-streot School.

It was resolved to advertise at once, time for receiving application to close at the ond of July. Scholarship Candidates. — Tho City School Committee also pointed out that a largo proportion of tho candidates for scholarships wore over tho school age, viz., 15 ■ years. He considered that the effect of this

handicapping upon those within the school ago was to deter a number of children from competing. They therefore suggested the advisability of limiting, in future, tho right of competition in the Auck land district to children under 15 years of ago. The secretary explained that the Board had voted upon Sir F. Whittaker's interpolation of the Act.—Mr J. M. Clark cordially sympathised with tho Committee's representations, and on his suggestion it was decided to reply that the arrango ments were fixed for this year, and that the matter would bo again considered next yea .

Finance. — The Secretary stated the balances of account to bo as follow : Edu cation fund, £94110s (id, to debit j build ing fund. £2,992 2s sd, to debit: total, £3,936 12s lid. He also intimated that the remittances for June would amount to £5,000.

Increase of Roll.—The samo Com mittee wrote urging the Board to allow an increase of 8 per cent, to bo mode the rolls of the olty schools, as tho absences averaged from 12 to 17 per cent. A memo, by tho Inspector stated that there could be no objection to allowing all who could safely do so to attend the city Bchools. He thought it would be found that something like 25 per cent, was now allowed, talcing 10 equate feet as the proper allowance for each pupil, e.g., if a tmhool bad space for 80 pupils atone time, a roll number of 100 was allowed.—Tho application was granted. Frankmn Road School.—An application for lattice work on which to hang maps was allowed.

Newton East,—The Committee wrote Rtating their Intention to rent tho Primitive Motboaist school in.Pitt street for tho use of tho infant classes bolonging to Newton East School, which was over-crowded. They therefore asked tho Board to sanction tho proposal, and allow thorn to receive tho rents of tho dwelling houses belong ing to tho sohoolc, in order to defray the incidental expenses. — Mr Goldie spolie in favour of tho superior suitability of Dr. IValliß'A building, tho Athensoum.— It was agreed to dofor the_ application for further consideration, the Inspector in the meantime to examine tho building proposed, for the school.

FIRE AT PARNELL.

An incipient fire was discovered about four o'clock this morning In a fifteen-roomed house at the corner of Bath and York streets, Parnoll, occupied by John Barran, gardenor. Its early detection was instru mental In saving both this and ad joining property from destruction. Mr Samuel Young was driving home in a cab rto his residenoe at Remuera at tho hour indicated, when ho observed names bursting through the roof in question. He alarmed Barran and several neighbours, who quickly turned out and rendered assistance in suppressing the outbreak. Amongst those who rendered timely aid was Captain Le Roy, of the Naval Artillery. Blankets were spread on the roof of the hbuse, and these, having been thoroughly saturated with water conveyed in buckets, prevented the progress of the flames. The Parnell Fire Brigade was speedily in at tendance, and a lead of hose having been connected, was taken Inside the house, and proved instrumental in ex tinguishing the last vestiges of fire. The damage was not very serious, but had the. fire not bean discovered when it was, several thousands of pounds worth of property would have been destroyed. There is nothing to account for the outbreak, which originated In an empty room said to bo' oc cupied by the children for drying clothes. Mr Barran says he has just had the promises finished as a boarding-house, but has only one boardor living there yet. He and his family, and also the boarder, went to bed at 9.43 o'clook last night, having pre viously -extinguished all tbo fires. They slept oh the ground floor, and tfce boarder upstairs. Barnins had hi« furniture insured In the' Globe Office for £200. The building is owned by Mr J. P. Oakcs, of Parnell, and is insured in the Royal for £I,3oo.—There is understood to be a further insurance bf £400 effeoted by the mortgagee. Probably £50 or £60 will cover tho damage.
