To do ro now would be to supply, a a I ha.-o indicated bol'oro, ignorant, incapable, cunning, aud criminal minds with mental pabulum. And so too of the current whirlpool theory in a stagnant pleasure pond ot no great depth and still transparency. But granting that my opinion on the matter, though formed lifter long and deep prac tical as well a* theoretical examination, may have some bias upou general grounds, let me tell you, sir, that these my opinions aro not unendorsed, but that at their back are names of the ablest and acutest types. As to honesty, sir, such n question ex cludes every phase of dishonesty—even the CDnceit and vengeance and so forth to which wo are all so humanly prone. Its nature and its issues aro of the most awful, nay, tremendous consequences. But there is such a thing as a justvou geanoo, in the display of which our indi vidual conceits are liable to gain the upper hand. 1 ash you more than once to ponder heavily over these things, lie-read your inquest report with the greatest care and shrewdness. Add to. Take trom. Con sider my niotivo character, conduct, and action and so forth, wherever thou wilt. Come to broad conclusions. Be not misled by tho shimmering quirks of pseudo lawyers, doctors, and scientists, be they admitted, or be they unadmitted. Judge as a man. As a man of the world - boldly, fidrly, and bravely. Not parsonically, nor hysterically. But whatever you say, sir, say truly and say boldly. At a right date, if desirable, 1 will clearly point out why I married, when and how I did, why I did not take my poor wile to New Zealand with mo, whilo 1 delayed in perdu for a few weeks at "Brindisi Cot tago," unknown to my pour wife, and why I did not appear at my poor wife's inquest and funeral. And then perhaps as to my absolutely illegal arrest, commitment, and remand, based upon tho spirit of our common law. (a) No arrest, commitment, or remand without proof of crime. (b) When proof of guilt and innocence is equal the law favours innocenco. ft) There is a presumption of innocence in favour of all persons. And fortified by circumstances such as those there was no proof. (a) That.l had not just returned to Brindisi Cottage from Brindisi or olsc whoro.

(b) That the Brindisi letter was not actually written at Brindisi.

No proof, mind, I say. But these are matters of insignihcan personal importance in the face of our para mount consideration. They may by-uid-byo, for aught I know, give life to criminal actions, but assuredly not to meroenary civil notions. To Win gold over such a distressing anil terrible calamity is, as it were, to covet money from tho grave. Nothing so lonthsamo and nothing so ominous—to gain grave money.

I have said. I care less than naught, rir. I need hardly romind yon, in concluding in tho words of an eminent mind, " for scribbling and gossiping wretches ot insignilicant and impotent twaddles, self-pestered with dis eased temperaments, full of disgusting jaundice and polluting bile." But only, indeed, as I have said to thorn -96_V63. They havo but tho brain of tho ilea. They havo but the heart of tho cur. Aud truth and justice ever but prevail. I say truly and I say freely that my poor wife and I loved and respected one another deoplv and purely, and if I havo committed any single error of judgment involving blame under the most sudden and painful and difficult circumstances it is in my love and thought and care for her. Such costs the mind mental and physical unselfishness, so to say, of the most cutting: anguish, Friends and acquaintance can thus testify. For hers was one of those rarely amiable arttl unselfish dispositions, full of simple, good, useful, anil true life. Indeed, she was tho possessor of a golden disposition, bright and lovely, and illustrated by n most comely face, figure, and maimer. In hor there seemed to be a most, perfect blending of mind nod soul, nothing but what was holy and noble. I have been rent ♦o the hairs' root, and to the heart's core, ami ii it were not so, wero I a man ? Therefore, bo gcntlo with mo iii a pro found mental and phy.icial life.ugony, do not judge from .your arm-chair, with a drawing-room wave of tho hand, and export facts To do so is to be guidod by senti mental __s.n_jna-j.niid not by sensible just- But, sir, I contend most- firmly—if you str and nay on—that I havo not committed any error in judgment. _ , I will givo you, sir, in conclusion, a Latin motto, and applicable, and you shall givo me ono ia return, at my own hands. Foryou — . > jludi alteram partem priiisijiiam. (Hear the whole defence first.) As yet my proof and defence havo not been put in. For me — ' Obscyuium amie.os Veritas odium parit. (Obsequiousness makes friends, truth hatred.) Horace speaks to you, Terence to me. Upon broad grounds, sir, I do not care a flip for friends. I want the truth, the whole tiuth, and nothing but tho truth, come what may, cost what it will. And where crime has been committed with impunity both you and I must not only ask but de mand right and justico. We will claim it, sir, loudly and per sisently with equal rights as citizens, calmly and justly. But I claim it further as a husband in a manner which I havo neither tho ability nor the control to define. lam exhausted. My tongue refuses to givo .response to my brain. But we ask for tho rights of an English Court oi inquiry, and not for a Treasury Minute. Such is a gross usurpation of liberty on the part of the Government. We do not Question its faith or ability. Wo caro nothing for evil precedent. IV o plead for a righteous principle. In a word —"Fiat Justitia ac Publice." Or, more simply, in tho words-of Aristotle, " What Is instico, countrymen ? To give to every one right."—Allow me to bo, sir, yours faithfully, Hugh Sh»rtiani>, Millbay Railway Station. Plymouth, July 7th, 1884.

THE RACE TO KAIPARA.

Full Particulars.

Captain ■'. Juh.n.ioii, of the brigantine Defiance, has' kindly forwarded the follow, ing particulars of the recent race from hero to Kaiparn between the brigantine De fiance, barque Pelhatn, brigantine Nora, and schooner Devonport:—We got under weigh in the Defiance on Friday morning, and tho Devonport and Pelhatn, which were lying at tho North Head, started at the same time, with a line S.E. breeze. When we got to the North Head tho other two were at the Beef, but as wo proceeded the wind got stronger anil we slowly overhauled them. When passing Tiritiri wo were all three abreast of each other. Then the Devonport begin to drop astern, and she was never more in the race. The Pelham, however, kept up with ns with varying success until noon, when we were about a mile ahead of her. Tho wind then shifted to the N.E., and made us all haul close on the wind. The barque then lost ground repeatedly, und the Devonport proved no better than before. She was then about 10 miles astern. The wind kept light, and in the same direction till -1 p.m., when the Pelhatn was about 5 miles to leeward and the Devon port was "hull-down" astern. Tho wind then increased, and was accompanied with thick weather and heavy rain, during which we lost sight of the Devonport astern, and never again saw her on tho passage. All that night we had a strong breeze from S. E., and we did some tall sailing. Tho others must have been hard at it as well, for at daylight the Pelhain was about ii miles astern, and a brigantine, which proved to be the Nora (the Nora left har bourVhortly after the other vessels). We wore then at the North Cape, and the Nora was about -t mites inshore of us. In round ing the Cape sho had that much start of in, and she carried tho wind round, while the Pelhatn and Defiance were becalmed all day (Saturday) ; at dark tho Nora was fifteen miles ahead. We passed the Pandora Bank about 10 p.m. on Saturday, with the Pelham alongside. The wind then camo from the southward. It was consequently a case of " beating," and next morning the Nora and Pelhatn wero as far to leeward as wo could see. During Sunday night, however, the wind hauled to the westward, and got light on Monday morning. When we were off Mongonui lilulT, tho Pelham and the Nora wore about fifteen miles astern, and this position was kept till wc reached Kaipara bar, about 7 p.m. on Mon day night. Wo had to heave-to outside of tho bar all night, which gave any vessel the chance to get in first, but we managed to get in about two miles ahead of the Nora on Tuesday, The Pelham and Devonport had not got in this (Thursday) morning. It will thus bo seen that while the race really lay between the Defiance and Nora, the former won oasily.

DYNAMITE WARFARE.

New York, July '_•!..-- Discoveries of an important elmrart'r, concerning tlie plans of th 3 so-called Cuban revolutionists, have just been made in this city, it is reported by good authority. It apnea r< Hint the r ■voiulionary ha'lors have determined up n imitating tho Irish dynamiters by v.ing what is styled the "resources of civilisa tion." Dynamite in enormous quantifies has been bought in this city, and much of it has been shipped to the military supply depOt of the revolutionists at Nassau and New Providence. It is said that the con spirators have been for several weeks in negotiation for the purchase of one thousand pounds of dynamite. The only circumstance which delayed the closing of this contract is the question as to the quantities in which the stuff should bo put up, and tho manner in which it should be s'tipped.

FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT-EXCURSION TRAIN WRECKED.

PiTTSntfRO, Pa., July 10.—Intelligence just received from Canton, Ohio, says : Th's evening a train on the Connotton Valley Railway, of sixteen cars, containing the employees of Aultman's agricultural works and their families, who had been given a picnic, was wrecked two miles east of Canton, and 200 wero killed and injured. The employes of the Aultman & Co. machine works had their annual picnic at Cuyahoga Falls to-day, and over 2,000 went on tho excursion, which was made up of two trains of fifteen cars each. The first section arrived at Canton at 7.20 p.m., and whilo hundreds of fathers, brothers, and sisters at the station wero waiting for friends and relatives on tho second section, a hatless messenger camo running down tho track crying that the train had been wrecked and many killed and injured. The sccno that followed was of tho wildest de scription, and when tho wreck was reached, men, women, and children tan around wringing their hands and looking for their lost ones. Nine cars were off the track and in water four feet deep. Tho cries of tho injured were heartrending. The engineer says the wreck was caused by the track spreading. The engine went over ail right, but tho first car jumpod the track and eight others followed. The train ran alongside of the track for 200 feet, throw ingtne'occupants from ono side to the other, and finally jumped a small embankment and landed in three feet of water.

MUTINY AND MURDER.

Pjiilaoell'lJl.., August J, —The startling story that the crew of the schooner Julia Baker, bound from Now York for Ppint-a- Pitrio, had mutinied, killed Captain John Lewis and had been selling tha cargo in tho West Indie?, led tho owners of tho vessel Warner and Merritt, to make inquiries, The result was that circumstances were disclosed of a most suspicious nature. The master of the schooner had taken her into Koy West, Florida, and was there selling tho cargo undo, iparket prices. A descrip tion of this person claiming to bo Captain Lewis was .obtained, which ..lengthened the suspicions. Captain Lewis ws.s about 40 years of ago, rather tall and stout, and the description of the present commander is altogether .differ ent. Albert Merritt, of tho firm of "Warner & Mcrrit, expressed' tho opinion that a mutiny had occurred on board the schooner; that a tic-lit took place in which Captain Lewis was tilled, and that the crew, seeing that they were in for it, determined to sell the cargo and .escape. Warner & Merritt lator received a despatch fr.om the Collector at Key West stating that tho .captain and four men of the Julia Bator hayo been ar rested.

DNEADFUL FATE OF A MOTHER AND CHILDREN.

The polico- found them on the roof with their clothes burning and tore the clothing off, the flesh coming off with the clothes. They were taken to the hospital. After the fire was extinguished the body of Joseph Gib bons, a four-year-old boy, was found burned to a crisp.

FRIGHTFUL SCENE AT AN EXECU TION.

New York, August I.—Alexander Jeffer son, the negro, who, in jealous rage, killed Henry Hicks and Emma Jackson (also coloured), nearly killed Anna Jackson, and B_.o--_._ly wounded his brother, Celestial Jefferson, S* Mrs Jackson's residence on Buffalo Avenue, Brooklyn, was hanged this morning in the presence of 400 spectators. Before his execution he handed the Sheriff a list of persons to whom he wished his photographs given. He ate breakfast with evident relish, and dressed himself in a new black suit presented to him by the Sheriff. He was kept in conversation tby his spiritutl advisers up to the time. He-was led to the scaffold between two clergymen, and the

nnose was placed around his neck. Alter the rope was cut, and Jclt'ersou's body shot up into the air, the knot slippod around under his chin, and his neck was not broken. For a moment he was motionless, then he kicked, struggled and groaned as he was slowly strangled, and by a despearto effort he got his right hand up to the rope and tore tho black cap from his face, exposing its contortions and his staring eyes. After he tore the black cap away, his hand fell down ■by his side. The contortions and convulsions of the body continued for live minutes, when life was pronounced extinct eight minutes after tho rope was cut.

A TERRIBLE SCENE.-COLLISON BE WEEN THE LEXHAM AND GIJON.

Lonhon, July 28.—Tho survivors of tho steamship Lexham, which collided with tho Spanish steamer Gijon, report that on the evening of the collision there was a thick fog, and the Lexham was going slow, and both steamer:! wore sounding whistles. Tho Gijon struck tho Lexham amid ships, and the latter was nearly cut asunder, and the funnel fell and the -team pipe burst. The chief engineer was horribly scalded. Most oi tho Lexham's crew boarded the Gijon. Captain Lothian tied his wife and child to himself, and all three wero hauled aboard the Gijon. The Lex ham sank twenty minutes after the collision, not long before the Gijon began to settle. Terrible confusion prevailed. Tho captain stood with a revolver in his hand, but was unablo to keep order, as the pas sengers and crew wero lighting for their lives. Boats were lowered, and tilled to the gunwale, but could not accommodate half the people Those fortunate enough to secure places in them wero obliged to keep off others with their knives. The Gijon sank bow first, tho quarter deck crowded with men and women, and the captain nud otlicer. standing on the bridge. It is estimated that 130 persons perished.

Wkixinhtom, this afternoon Split in the Canterbury Camp.

At tho meeting of Canterbury members this morning, Messrs Roes and Twrnbull left before it was over, being dissatisfied with tho tcno of the mooting.
