TUESDAY, JULY 1, 1884.

For tho cause that lasta assistance, For tho wrong that needs roulstano*. For the future in tho dlfltanoe, And the geod that we can do.

In the elections of Parliamentary repxoson tatives which are now imminont, it is im portant thai tho pooplo shbuld havo clear issues placed before them in plain and un mistakable language. So far as two great party leaders aro concerned, this will be done in tho course of a few days, for Major Atkin son and Sir Ge«. Gray are aunouncod to givo addressos on Thursday evoning next—the formor at Hawora, and tho latter in this city. Until tho political leadors havo laid their programmes before the country, it would be premature and unbecoming for us to dogmatically inform the pooplo what thoy should do at the present juncture. In tho meantime, however, and in order to clear the ground for moro positive, declara tions, we may point out a few things which the electors ought not to do. ' In the first place, thoy ought not to bo misled by tho cry of " Measures, not ruoti," which has proved in the past to bo a mero subterfuge for passing third-rato raon into Parliament, whose only merit consisted in obeying tho crack of the party whip. We" want men and meanures—men with definite and correct principles, and who will» adhere to those oven when thoy Bhould clash with tho perhaps mistaken'aims of the party leader pro tempor*. Above all, tho doctors should no* forget that it is flioir truo interest to sec that thoy aro represented by men of probity, intelligence, and independence ; and in tho couple of weeks which aro to elapse between now and nomination day, we trust all the constituencies will cast around among their good men and try to prevail upon the best to como forward as candidates. In tho second placo, electors should not, by a too contracted view of tho situation, ombitter other districts of the colony ajjainat tho North. Though pome rabid politicians of Otago and Canterbury declare that those provinces aro bofng rognlarly milked to onriob. tho greedy North, that does not by • any* means * roprosont the feoling of-th'B' intelligent, masses, of Southern electors. "It may, on tho owor hand, be the opinion of iSany in Auckland district that- the1 South has Had -an undue shore of public expenditure in the past; but this should not be made an election cry, because it ia calculated to embitter the slight feeling of estrangement which now prevails, to strike at the root of colonial unity, and to furthor thoao Insular Suparn tion views which we consider so pernicious to the whole colony. Thirdly, electors should not waste their effective voting power by dividing their votes between threo or four candidates represont ing different shades of opinion. They must not run tho chanco of being mis represented merely to gratify some local gnevance or temporary whim, but should seek rather to have the oloetiena fought on broad questions of principle. By keeping those negative directions in view, the electors, we are convinced, wil! best conserve their own intereata and secure the future good government of' the colony. Whon the issues ore fairly before , the country it will be time to advise the electors what to do. *,

Sir Julius Vogel in Reply.

In publishing last "week an account of an interview which a Star reporter had with Sir Julius Vogel at Wellington, our aim was to present fully and {airly to Our raiders the opinions sf that political leader. In one or two respects we find that telegraphic mutilation has rather distorted the views of Sir Julius, and vro havo therefore pleasure in publishing >he following telegram just received from him:— *

"In reporting ray interview with your representative, you inaccurately^make mo appear to* favour separation at some future time, and in yonr loader of same day you describe me as favourable to separation. Please permit me to make a correction. What I stated was that I thought there was nothing in the cry for separa tion, ,and that tit would give way to one for localised governments of a much more acute form than irisular govern ment. You also, in your leader, misunder stood me about borrowing. "What I said was in effect that the actual liabilities and arrangements are so enormous that non borrowing is an impossibility." • . As to the separation question, it is easy to see how the mistake arose. The wording of our telegram was as follows:—" I think the cry of separation will give place in time .to a cry for .localised government of a much more ' acute character — insular govern ment ;". and it will be'seenthat'the omission "of the word " than " makes a world of differ ence in the .meaning. *On the ques tion of borrowing,* our interpretation of Sir Ju'iui'Vogel's opiniotip, as gleaned from his replies,to our reporter,is proved to be substantially correct. If "non-borrow ing ia an impossibility," "it requires no fine logic-chopping to see- that borrowing "is "absolutely necessary." If Sir .Julius prefers to define his position by means of two negatives instead of by a simple affirma-* tiyo, we have no objection, and gladly Tbelp him to announce his policy as an " anti ■on-borrowing " one.

From Kohukohu we have received the following :—" Sir, —The letters in your paper about the cruise'of the Wairarapa, ore most interesting, and I should like to preserve them. I shall be glad to know if you intend to publish them in pamphlet form at the ploso of the trip.—Youre, respectfully, John J. Keb." [From an nouncement in another column, it will be seen that the letters are to be Issued in permanent form at the moderate price of two shillings.] ~ ■ *' *

The Criminal Sessions of the Supreme Conrt were opened this morning by Mr Justice Gillies. In his charge to the Grand Jury, His Honor pointed' out that the calendar was a large one, but none of the offences were of an aggravated character. The number of Maori prisoners is unusu ally larga—9 out of the 21 accused belong ing to the native race. This, combined with the fact that the majority of the cases come from, the country districts, goes to proye|that the city is comparatively free from crime. .

Up to the timo at which wo wont to press, about 175 nominations had been sent in. This number is about '20 in excess of tho totnl of last year. Christchurcli City Council, in resolving to ask tho Government to proclaim July 22nd, tho day of tho olections, a public holiday, havo taken a step which ought to bo backed up from other parts of tho colony. \Yhen there aro so many holidays for purposes of recreation, one day might woll bo spared in three years for tho purposo of attending to political dutios. Tho first shot of tho electioneering campaign was fired at Ohihuhu last even ing by Mr W. F. Bucklund, who ia a candi date for tho representation.'of Franklin North. In a sensible and cfTectivo speech, Mr Buckland laid his views on tho political quostions of tho day before hia audience. Ho was frequently cneerod, and at tho con clusion of his address a vote of contidouco was carried by a great majority. Our report of tho proceedings will be found in another part of this evening's issiio. In future tho Star will bo delivered to residents in that area of tho city comprised in tho districts encircled by Wollosloy stroet, Union-streot, &c, to Freeman's Hay by J. Kelly instead of by F. Howard, who has relinquished tho" run." Tho funeral of Mrs Leonard, wifo of tho Socretary to tho Salvation Army, was attended by a largo number of tho Army mombers and Others yesterday afternoon. Tho drums wero enveloped ill black, and ssvoral suitablo hymns woro played en route to tho cemetery, the cortege starting from l'arnell and going by way of Kybor Tass Road. Mrs Leonard wus very highly esteemed by thoso who knew her, and her loss is keenly felt. Slio leaves besides her husband two ohildron. In our notice of tho opening performance of "Manola," Mr Apploby was praised for his " utter solf-conscioiiHiiesi.«J" whercu* it should havo read "utter nclf - itn consciousness."

The performance of " Tho Sor cerer," it is said, will cost upwards of £100.

A epocial sitting of tho City North licensing Court waa held yesterday^ but strangely enough the usual courtesy of an intimation of the meeting was not extended to us. Asdong argument took place in reference to tlie Scotia Hotel, Mr Cotter stating that tho Chairman (Mr G. W. Owen) had written to a lawyer who was to appear for the objectors that the license would be refused. Tho Chairman said tho section required that notice must be given* but it was understood at the last adjourn ment that the matter would drop and coun sol undertake to send notice to the members of the Commitfee if thoy,«wero not fequired Jx) attend, and then the thing would drop. Cotter said he did not wish to adviee^or bo fatherly, but ho might point out.that' such 4 course was unknown in a Court of Justice. Would, he asked, any, lawyer write to Mr Justice Gillios or to tho Resi dent Magistrate, Mr Smith* iii^rcferenco to a caso ponding ? It would bo necessary for tbo proper body to consider tho action of Mr Brassoy. Ho did not wish to force the Bench in a corner, but ho should iri'sist "on the case being heard as required by tho Act.—The Bench adhered to its previous resolution, and refused to.liccnso on tho •ground that the house was not required.

. An immense crowd of peoplcassombled on the wharf yesterday afternoon to wel come the Auckland contingent of tho Now " Zealand Football Team on their return from Australia. The "reps." were driven round town ia a drag drawn by four greys, and were" subsequently taken to' tbo Star Hotel, whero thoy woro formally wolcomed* by His Worship the Mayor and othor citi zons. Then toasts wero drunk in bumpers of champagne. Mr Warbfick, in replying, said many in Sydney would, liko to soo a team visit New Zealand next year, but tho older players thought that Brisbane should be visited first, and that tho year after Now Zealand would be again called upon to meet a team from New South Wales". The captain of the Intercolonial team and ono of the best of' the University team were debarred from playing, owing to an accident a day or two before their arrival. Brodie, who was called the "Australian wonder," was away in Bng land, and was expected back this month. In Sydney the supremacy of the New. Zea landers at kicking, dribbling, and running was willingly acknowledged. The passing of the team was a point which much struck their opponents, and they thought the com bined way in which thoy nad played togother could only have been acquired by more than a month's practice togother in New Zealand prior to their visit to Aus tralia. Other membors of the team also spoke, and congratulatory remarks were offered by sevoral gontlomon prosent. Mr Warbrick loft by tho steamer last night for Tauranga.

Fever-Beds at Freeman's Bay.

(To the Editor.)

Sir,—ln a populous and advancing city like that of Auckland, possessing to a high degree the advantage of a healthful climate —the value of which'cannot be too greatly estimated—every caro should bo takon that hotbeds for propagating the germs of pesti lence should' be abolished. Said germs being of a democratic and aggressive nature, are stupidly "oblivious to'class distinctions, and although hatched in filth, will not confine themselves to their own locality, but w|ll invade tho most refined circles and there also introduce the grim spectre—Death. If fever-bods exist in this iair city, are the causes removable ? Is it anybody's duty to do so ? And if through gross neglect the causes remain and death ensue, would there be a case of manslaughter? If there is one thing above f all others which should be conserved, it is the health-of the people. If it is not too much trouble for the health potentate of Auckland to visit Willow-street, Freeman's Bay, he may see some (miscalled) drains favourably situated for producing a prolific crop of fever. So successful have been the results in one family alone, that the wife K has been laid up with typhoid {ever, one'son sick with same, and another son has just been sent to the Hospital,—l am, &c, Hop Ntjf Skd.

The Judge's Charge, His Honor delivered the fn\U, ■ to the Grand Jury;- Mefol'°™"g char Mr Foreman and Gentler,, of ° Grand Jury-The calendar you have to deal o-, thi OCCI i«» rather a largo une, there boUrn no ' tlmn 21 persons accuse, of ■ , b u ir P Of these there are nino Mr.uris - -"usual number for natives, w.'io ~,..-' irgtdwith various offences. Apd <.ii. mjority of the cases as you «U* tin-d. con,; from thd outlying district-? >^*!' i 0 prorince, The rrimosl are vc: , i arioug—more io. in* deP u>, ■,!"'.n I l,;r- overseen befor* in a cafaw'Ur lor „,., district-but although some f then, uro of „ fathor £* character, none lirt . o{ a aggravated nature, There i* one chotge of man- . BlaugHM against amative. It appears that two rjtives were fighting, a.dTne vJae knockjl down in the course of the scuffle, and sortly afterwards died from the injunehothonroaavcd. You must under stand Mt tho differenco between the crime of mater and that of manslaughter consists in Ihuf That in a care of murder the killing ia of nalico aforethought—that is, inten tionaonddeliberato killing, and that in a case < manslaughter the killing is without the ijention—killing in tho course of some wron;act, but without previous malice or intenon. If you find that the prisoner in this co was tKb cause of the injuries re ceivoiby the deceased man, then, of course, you at bound to find a true bill. There is all a chargo of tho very serious crimbf arson, viz., an attempt to set fhe to a bildiDg, Tho facts seem clear, so far as I kow, for I have had as yet no oppor tunitjof seeing tho depositions. In such cases ho evidence is generally ciroum stantii, aid if you find that there la reasonble ground to suppose that the personaccmed did attempt to set fire to the bildinj, then of course you will find t true bill. There is also a case of attraptinr to commit suicide. It is atays a pity that such charges are set for trial to tho-jjgupreme Court, for itsoemi ilmost absurd to say that you slill puniih a man for attempting a crimot/hich, if ho had succeeded in com mittio; it, would have placed him beyond punistnent. Tuo perron so acting, how ever, (held inlavtohavecommittedacrime, and ijit appears to you that in this case the pponor attenpted to kill himself, you will liv a truebll. There is also a oharge of r»o again* a Maori, the com-

plaintt being a ilaori girl. In this case I need iot explain ,he nature of the crime, for its well undestood that to have coa ncctio with a wanan against her -will or consdt is tho caenco of the crime. In" this ovtc I ask youjo look into the circum stanci very carefully, for tho only testi mony is that Af tho girl herself, and jic surroundiig circumstances are such mi to castl considerable doubt upon her statements. I will 'not go iso tho particulars for tho sake of pu'lic morality, At 1 ask you to look carefilly into the fcurrounding circum stlncy. There is alej another charge, Into the dtailß of which, ftr a similar reason, I need jot ontor, viz., a cihargo of committing an umatural offence, tlWevidonce in which seeing very clealit Tiere S2 n chnrge of porjuy, arising, Is usnl, outNc? a case of Sftndiy grog-soiling, ii which jiVpublican hwore positively thatliij, n( j L^krin his house on the Sundayi n „" ??^L and that ho m W liedVc \lZ *TW^ where* the evince (X'/',"';''*& show that he didnppj the liquor oW** duv. JEhis isonajgf tb., o C J"' °[ ""ikbinh*. . *i»ep,lip^«tftKTßn«i«#?o e?a^S!ie oath themajlves, and thusallSis perjury to- be committed. The evident hore also seems clear. There is a chargeif bigamy against a woman. Bigamy consfets in a man', or woman marrying a sectnd time, while tho Srst wife #r husband is still living, The law, howovet. provides that tho aheence of either ilusbind or wife for a* period of seven years may hj a justificationy* for marrying again. In thii case, however/ there was Nothing of that kind, and iffl* »„ evidence appears unueualy clear antU& distinct. There is also a cast of maliciously^ wounding, in which tl» prisoner, a*l foreigner I think, assaults amative at Kai- fi kohe with a spade, and inflict* a cut with it. $ '■' It is not for you to inquire whether any * provocation was given by the native if you * are satisfied that tho blow wai struck, and : was not given in self-defence against mien m a serious attack as would wtrrant a'man in uHiig such a weapon as a H)ado. If you find that he did wound the natve, then you will leave the question of provication to be dealt with by the petty jury. There is am charge of malicious injury to pnberty, a very* simple matter, which Ineednottroubloyou with. The person accused slashed the windows of one of the banks at he Thames, without much* if any apparent motive. ' If you aro satisfied that he broke tie windows then you will find a true bill aainßt him. There is a case of oattle stealing in regard to wlieh four natives are indited. The •evidaico against them is princijilly that of two of their companions, there living been six otthem at the time. The cvfduceoi these accomplices is the principal evidnee against the prisoners. It is for you to atlsfy your solvesthat the evidence is give, bona fide. I think it is in respect to this wse that I • have to say if any confessions 6 guilt are put before you as evidence you lust be al ways cautious not to receive thfo if they have been obtained by any threat or inducement from any person in jnthority, such as a recommendation from ihe police that it would be better ttftell the;ruth, and so on. There is one case of sac rilege—breaking into a cb^rch and stealing therefrom—that is a nftve church at Obaewai. The evidence, howoer, is very clear, and you will have no difffldty about it. There are two S&ses of.arceny as bailees, one of them being verjaimilar to a case that was tried hero seve'nl sessions ago. A native having got ft chejue, albfrs n white man ts take it for the Jurpose of having it cashed. The white man oee so, but keeps thomonoy. Thosofactswi >ebrought before you. Tho persofi rccoiv<-It rightly for the purpose of cashing it, bj tho keep ing of the money constitutes it $-'ceny as ■& bailee. There is a case of larenyby a bailee—a charge in regard te i diamond ring—in which the prosecutor ilys that he gavo a diamond ring to tho acctf3d for tho purpose of selling it. On the o(ftr hand, it ■ is said that the ring was purch'hed by the accused himsolf. It will be fqyou to sco from tho evidonco whether Si the ring was really givon for tho iirpose of sale by tho person receiving it,y,r whether he bought it without paying for it. In tho latter evont, it was not lajceny as a bailee. If, however, he tecoivedit in order to soil, thon it would be larceny i; a bailee. There is also a case of siniple larcely against a Maori girl of stealing- i6 at Ro^rua. In that case I do not think you will have any •difficulty. There must be the question as to how she came by the money, bjjtjT you are satisfied that she took it fromitiP clothes, of tho prosecutor, ycu will fjr§ a true* bill, leaving to the ptty jury the duty of examining the defeice. The£ aro no less than 10 cases of fi'ging and uttering. Four of these, as well a a charge °f obtain ing money by false pitences, a a against ono prisonor who lfo been \ reviously scntonccd for tho sani offence;1 * There 'a also a caso against a Mori for \S ftoring, in which it will be showrithat hejycked the cheque up in the,toad, fißed it in, and mado use of W It ig: a rather unusual case, althouh at Napier I met with a chargff'of forgig by Mac/ris. There is also a charge of paling the/i^cque in a -shop. There are fouichargesiagainst two individuals of forgin som^ iills and en dorsing others. Thse are pimple cases, and I need not raab any rumarks upon them. If you will iiw be good enough to retire to your ropmtta bilU will be laid before you.
