the bad state of tho labour market. Now thoroisan Impcriul doorcathat had Hong fal len into desuetude, which prohibits open-air gatherings of this kind, and M. Ferry, tho Premier, took advantage in order to stop tho proceedings. He called out about 40,000 troops—the whole of tho army of Paris and Versailles — the entire police force and the gons d'arme.., and even the pompiers, or Fire Brigade men. Only 200 'or I! 00 working men at tended. Tho Radical papers had been strongly urging them not to hold the meet ing, as it would afford a pretence to the Government to interfere, which would only serve to promote the interests of the Re nctionaries. As usual, however, there were plenty of badawte or idlers to swell the' gathering, besides people paid by tho Reactionaries to make mischief. The meeting wa3 called upon to di. perse, then the Cavalry charged, innocent persons wore knocked down, and about 100 arrests were made, tho larger number of those taken in charge, however, being set free again after summary interrogation by tho Commissary of Police. The three citizens who signed tho requisition calling tho meet ing were tried, and sentenced to three months' imprisonment, although it was shown that they wero honest, industri ous, and respectable working men. The President of tho Court asked them why they had not, hired a hall for their meet ing, bh open-air gatherings wsre prohibited. One of them replied that they had no means with which to do so, and further, that no hall was largo enough to accommo date tho numbers of the unemployed in Paris. I could quote other instances of illiberal and intolerant action on the part of thoso in oflico who miscall themselves Liberals.

SAILING RACE.

A sweepstakes sailing raco between the 20-feet opon boats Dream (Farquhar), Ika (Bailey), and Maacotto (Wnymouth) took place this afternoon, and was watched with considerable interest, by a largo num ber of persons from both Auck land and North Shoro wharves. Tho wind being from tho northward and blow ing hard, tho course was arranged us fol lows :—From the end of Queen-street Wharf, round North Shoro spit-buoy, round tho Ga_olle(o_.Koliiinaramn)-the lasttwomorks to bo sailed round four timos — thence up tho harbour, round the coal hulk Cnntero, anchored on tho western sido of tlio<jueon-street Wharf, and finish at tho point of starting. The Ika was sailed by Mooro, tho Dream by J. Bigoiow, and tho Mascotto by 0. Waymouth. , The boats gotaway with a splendid flying start, the Mascotte with hor large mainsail and the others under small canvas. Tho Mascotte occupied tho windward position, tho Ika beinc noxt to leeward, and Dream nearer tho southern shore. The Ika soon wentahead and gainedtho wind ward position, while the Dream also succeeded in weather ing tho Mascotte. They approached tho North Shoro in this order, and shortly after the Dream, being tho best in smooth water, considerably improved hor position, and the buoy was rounded for tho first time as follows :—lka, l_brs, 25mlns. Osecs, Dream, 12hrd. SCmins. ISOseCs. ; Mnscotto, 12hrs., 27mins., .'iOsocs. The Mascotte, by this timo, gave cvidonco that she had by far too much canvas, and dropped a long way astern, the hulk being rounded: —lka, I2hi_., 3-inins. ; Dream, 12hrs„ 3..mins,, 30secs. ; Mascotte, 12hrs., 38mina.. ..O'.ecs. The Ika was tho first to go about off Victoria Wharf, and sho was followed by the Dream about a minute later. Both laid up wolf from tho buoy, whieli was rounded for the socond time :— Ika, 12hr_, 49mins. ; Dream, 12hrs. 50miii8. 35sees. ; Mascotte, 12hrs.' 54mins. In tho same order they passed round the hulk, the times being — Ika, 12hrs, 57mins. SOsecs. ; Dream, 12hra. 59mins. lOsees. ; Mnscotto, llhrs. .mins. ..sees. Tlio Mascotto thon squared away' for home, leaving tho othor two to struggle for the first place. Moore mado two short boards to reach the northern sliora, while BigeW stood straight across, Tha Ika, however, maintained her load, and the buoy was rounded for tho third time;—lka, 12hrs. Smins, j Dream, 12hrs, Smins. 3.sees. Tho run across to tho hulk was very close, that mark being rounded :—lka, lhr.J 12mlns, ilOsecs. ; Dream, Ihr. |3mins. .iisocs. From this point the wind came lighter, and tho lkft made several shortboards on the noict trip across tho harbour. Tho Dream succeeded in improving her position. Before reach' ing tho buoy to bo rounded for tho fourth and last time, the Iko was brought up in the wind iti order that a reef might be Bhook out of her mainsail. This per nAttfid the Dream still further to improve her position, and tho Iko was only five seconds ahead when rounding that point. The ty.o boats sailed almost abreast from' hero, ro^nd the hulk, and ate»o#t till the Railway Wharf was reached, wiion, »&_. a eood deal of nian^-vring, the Dr(WW took np t_e lending posi tion slightly te «.-in<J\vard, and the .eimlt appeared exceeding.y -SoMAil- Rigelow, kept ahead of his oppopeflt, afld bjo.ught the Dream round tho bow • f Itlvs @/M*pio, ust as the Ika was at her storo, th<? pipapx | eventually proving victorious, The tiiLfl of jtlie finish, taken by Captain W.
