grand stands, and tho discipline and order enforced upon them might bo studied with advantage—not only in tho United State?, but also in the United Kingdom. Some of the finest judges of horse-iies!) in tho world pronounce tho Australian throughbrods to be already superior to the European. It is, moreover, worthy of remark that nowhere nre racing officials, jockeys, trainers, and bookmakers more vigilantly watched and kept in order by the authorities than at Sydney, Melbourne, Dunedin, and Christclmrch. 1 fear the racing season just over was a very unfortunate one for the Australian sportsman, Mr Long. The numerous mare.} and foals he bought at tho Middle Park Stud Company's sale it was supposed for exportation to the colo nies—have not left the stud farm yet, and a story is current to the effect that they will be put up to auction again early next spring. Cable tramways on tho model of those working at Roslyn and Maori Hill, New Zealand, are about to bo introduced in Edinburgh. "Tablets of tho Heart" is the titlo of a prettily-bound book of poems and aphorisms by Rev. F. Lanebrldge, M.A., brother of Mr Bureau Lmigbridge, of Auckland, New Zealand.

The Working Men and the Temperance Demonstration.

(To tho Editor.)

8i a,— As a resident of Auckland, interested both in reasonable hours of labour and in tho causo of temperanco, it is a matter of regret to soe tho conflict which, by what I gather from the proas reports, is existing in reference to the demon strations of the 29th inst. After deliberation both committoes decided for the same day: so far no particular objection could be raised, al though it is a matter of rogret. For the sports the Eight Hours Committee secured the Cricket Ground, which will be a considerable sourco of revenue to them. The adoption of the temper ance badge convoys the impression of a wish to bring discredit on tho temperanoo cause. The anxletv to secure a meeting on the even- Sw of the 20th in the Choml Hall looka worse still. What are tho facts? Tho various temperanco organisations have no personal bsneflt to secure beyond what they wish all to share in—namely, freedom from tho drink curse. They give of their time and money to seek to benefit the rising generation by training them in habits of sobriety. To secure the necessary funds for the oxpenses of tho demonstration the Temperance Committee are arranging for, a meeting m tho Theatre Royal on the evemng of the 29th. You would think the working men, many of whose child ren aro reaping the benefit of tho voluntary labour of tho temperance workers, would help such a meeting, instead of seeking to make it a failure. Surely theattompthasnot theapproval of the bulk of tho working men. Sir George Grey i 3 not tho gentleman to hinder the success of any benevolent movement. The addrosa he is expected to give is one which all classes would be pleaseoto listen to. Nospocial reason exists for its delivery on that particular evening, except the feeling—whioh I fcol confident he will be no party to—of his name and influence, causing tho success of the ono meeting and the comparative failure of theothor. Numbersof membersof the Eight Hour 3 movement haye little sympathy with the extreme opposition that is being shown. Let them use their influence to compel a course o£ moderation. Trusting the import ance of tho subject will bo sufficient oxcusc for this unduo trespass on your spaco.—l am, &c, R. FJtRNDK.
