PRE-SESSIONAL SPEECHES.

Mr Montgomery at Christchurch.

[BY TEr-KUKAPII—PRESS ASSOCIATION.]

Christchdbch, Monday. Mr Montgomery addressed a crowded public meeting in the Oddfellows' Hall to nieht. The Mayor occupied the chair. On the platform were Messrs J. Holmes, O'Cal laghan, Mcllwraith, and Whits, M.H.R.'s.

Mr Montgomery, who was received with applause, said that he had asked the audi ence to meet him ao that, as a public man, he might put before them the opinions lie had formed after careful consideration. The next Parliament would havo to settle the questions of centralism and deoentral ism, of land and income versus property tax, of State aid to emigration, and whether the colony was to continue borrowing. He wished to put himself right as to his statement that from the first conception of the Public Works scheme the members of Parliament had been secured by votes to their districts, for which purpose eleven and ahalf millions had been spent by Sir J. Vogel. who afterwards deeply regretted it. Major Atkinson had denied this state ment; and in reply he. (Mr Montgomery) would simply read Sir J. Yogel's words uttered on August 2+, 1374, and reported in Hansard. Major Atkinson had said that he had borrowed only six anda-half millions, while the Grey Government had borrowed seven and a-half millions. Major Atkinson had the handling of the four millions loan of 1574, when he joined the Vogel Ministry. Hu borrowed one million in 187G, and sup ported the live million loan in 1879. It was quite true that Major Atkinson had only asked Parliament to borrow six and a half million?, but he had the handling of over ten millions besides that sum, so that he had actually allotted over fifteen millions. At the time when Major Atkinson came into otiice, the Grey Government had anticipated twomillions ofthe loan then raised. Notwith standing Major Atkinson was misleading the people of New Zealand when he said he had only borrowed six and a half, million.s When Major Atkinson asserted atDunedin that the North and South Islands had got an equal share of public money, he talked about a population basis. He (Mr Mont gomery) had a return from a Blue Book, showing the contribution of the revenue, exclusive of land revonue from each pro vincial districts, and the expenditure each would be entitled to as partof the loan. On that basis compared with the sums actually expended up to March 30, ISB3, Wellington and Taranaki had together, as revenue, £!>30,000 more, Canterbury £1,250,000 less, and Otago £40,000 less than they should have had. He said at Akaroa, and repeated it, that Taranaki and Wellington had absorbed four or five timos as much money as they should havo done. Westland had rpceived £900,000, to which she Was entitled, on account of the large amount she had contributed in Customs and gold duty. Thiß, however, should have been charged upon colonial revenue, and not to the Middle Island. There were 15,000 people in Weatland, and her gpld export had been ten millions. Taranaki in ten years had exported only £5,000. Her people lived on the large Government expenditure. The time had now come when the people in the variouslocalities should depend on their own resources. There was an Armed Constabu lary costing £80,000 or £100,000 a-year and the Customs revenue went to maintain a lirge service. The fact had gone forth that whenever one railway would not pay another must make up for it. The Hum nui Bluff had paid last year £3 5s Cd per cent. ; the Taranaki lines opened had paid £1 7s 6d. It was for the people ef Canter bury and Otago to consider whether they would pay for the railways which should never have been made. Railways, public works, and immigration, had raised the value of land, but had not raised that of improvements one shilling, therefore land should pay for works which had benefitted the place ; and the good gov ernment of the colony also required money, and to provide that ho would tax incomes. He would like to see the whole North Island under one local Government, and the whole of the South under a similar one. The Federal Government should deal with Customs and Telegraphs, have power to levy income tax, and to do nothing eke except pass such laws as those relating to marriage, &c. Such a Govern ment need only bo small, and need not sit for more than a month, a-year. The pro vinces had been wrecked because they bor rowed when snmn of tAiom were no): nble t« pay. He had no fear of the colony's future. In 1577 they had been told that they wanted pol itinal rest. Now they were told that they need to be frugal, and were instructed hoy to raise two sheep whore before they raise one. Major Atkinson, in eaying thefi things, reminded him of a finger-post tbt pointed the way, but never went thee. People must bo sunk lower than tbse of New Zealand if they needed to bo taught how to manage their f*'ms and business. It had been ?ked

who were to take the place of the p^sent Ministers. He wanted to see an appal to the people on tho subject, and if tb eleo torg could not Ind six men with a/ much honesty and talent as lhose mfi now in power, tho representative concitution of New Zealand had failed roserably. He thought, hewever, thst ,ix men could be found—men who woild have the confidence of Parliament anl tie people.

A motion to the effect that M: Mmtgomery

was worthy of the confident!! aid respect of the electors of the oolong ws carried almost unanimously. A mooad motion thanking him for the addresf, but deolinlng to express confidence in him as & leader till the electors had heard Sir Gfeorge Grey vas negatived by a considerable najority.

Hon. Mr Rolleston a Blenheim.

Mr Rolleston, addressings public meet ng at Blenheim last night spoke at length Dn the land policy, and sail his aim was to provent monopoly and speculation. He ield it would be foolish net to relievo taxa- Sion by disposing of Crawn hnd, and it would i)e equally foolish not to retain some of the public estate in order to get the increase in value. He divided Crown lands nto pastoral, semi-pastoral, and agricul tural. With regard to the pastoral, there mould bs no alienation in future, but the inlder should pay the best rental and get :hegreatestamount of produce from theland. With regard to agricultural lands, he advo :ated a system of interspersing deferred oayment and cash lands, which ren lored it impossible for speculators ;o come in and obtain big blocks, tie condemned the land tax and bursting ip, and considered the property tax mswered all necessary purposes. It was ;he fairest tax, and fell on the shoulders )f those best able to bear It. n conclusion, Mr Rolleston strongly op >osed any scheme for insular or financial eparation. He was cordially applauded hroughout the address, and a hearty vote if thanks was unanimously accorded.

HELENSVILLE FLOUR MILL COMPANY.

TnE flour mill erected by the Helensville Flour Mill Company at Holensvills South is now completed, and in active operation The mill machinery, comprising^uTThT latest improvements, was imported from those well-known makers, Messrs T Bate and Son, Wolverhampton, England the engine and boiler being supplied by Jlesq™ T. Masefield and Co. . T& whole machi nery is of excellent workmanship, and has been erected under the personal direction of the mill manager, Mr Moses Bate whose repute in this particular branch of trade is well known. The mill is a mogt compact one, occupying three stories It is so arranged that when once the wheat is shot upon the bags it is not again touched the whole process of grinding, sorting, and delivery being accomplished by machinery It is capable of an output of 40 tons of flour per week. The advantages of the situation of the situation of this flour mill are—first a large and rising district capable of con suming all that the mill can turn out, and being in a timber district, and a sawmill adjacent and another in contemplation will enable vessels going to Helensville' for timber to bring a cargo of wheat instead of arriving in ballast as heretofore. The prospects of the mill are certainly very good and Mr Isaac McLeod, the prime mover and promoter of the Company, is to be con gratulated for his energy and tact.

SCHOOL OF DESIGN.

A correspondent who was one of the first students at the London School of Design takes exception to the statements which have lately appeared in the papers on matters relating to art. He considers that a pupil who requires three years to iearn outline drawing has mistaken his vocation and had better turn his attention to some mechanical trade. He says further, govern ment schools of art or design were first established in England about half a century ago, and that the routine of study is exactly the same now as at the beginning, which may be seen from the few recent journals on art in the Public Library. It comprised outline drawing, shading in crayons from the flat, shading from the round, painting in black and white from same, and in ou and distemper, natural colours from fruit and flowers, figure drawing and painting from the antique, etc., etc. After a student is perfect in the latter and ia a complete master of the human skeleton and anatomical figure, he may enter as a student at the Royal Academy, and paint from nude or living models of over sixteen years of age. Water-colouring is ignored, and landscape drawing or painting is never taught or allowed at the schools of design, as practising it is considered fatal to the exactness required in the higher branches, and of the 71 members of the Royal Academy (R.A.'s and Associates) only 8 are landscape painters, one of whom has jurt been sleeted.

In & letter to Mr W. H. Armstrong, solicitor, Mr Kichard Laishley, writing under date of 27th of March, says:—"l have not yet been able to get abroad, althotgh desiring to do so, having found so much to occupy my attention in London, To give you some idea of how my time is occupied, I may mention that in addition to visitng the various public schools, which of itseV has engrossed a considerable share of my 'eisure, on last Tuesday, 25th of-March, I attended at the Anthropological In stitite for the purpose of exhibiting my kairi gum models of Maori heads, and at the request of the President, Pro fesior Flower, F.R.S., I gave a shot explanatory address. On 4 Thurs da', 3rd April, by request,. I have coisented to allow my New Zealand-curios to be exhibited at the Archa>ological Saiety at Drapers' Hall, and have pro msed to deliver an address suitable to the ocasion ; and on the sth April, by invita tioi from the Working Men's College here, I an to leoture on Now Zealand; especially as a field for emigration. I must not omit tcteU you that on Tuesday, ltfth March, I hid a long and interesting conversation v»th Professor Huxley, President of the Ibyal Society of Education, especially on be differences between the New' Zealand Sid other educational systems, and have (rawn up a precis of the conversation (for he New Zealand Government); which has J6pn revised by Professpr Huxley."'!

BICYCLING.

John Roi«, Esq., champion bicyclist of Sng. land and Australia, who at present is open to run a long-distance race with any bicyclist fof the championship of the world, gives his per sonal experience of the valuable properties of St. Jacob's Oil, as used by him in His recent contest with Juo. Watson for the championship of Australia J .-'

268, Elizabeth-street North, | Jlilbourne, Victoria,

23rd November, 1833. To the Editor Adcklaki) Evening' Star. Dear Sir,—l .xaslre to add my cheerful endorse ment of the good effects I have at all times re ceived from the use of St. Jacob's Oil when in active training and racing. During" my recent 6 days' contest held in the Melbourne Exhibi tion Building for £500 and the championship of the Australian and adjacent colonies, it was my boon companion. I continually used it bofora and after each day's performance, and the re sults simply astonished me. After riding for 8 consecutive hours each day, viz.. from half-past 2 untU half-past 10, my limbs would become sore and stiff from over-exertion, but after bein<{ well-rubbed with the oil all muscular pain immediately vanished and I felt as tresh as over. As proof positive.after the contest was over. I rode 101 miles against time before a pub lic audience and accomplished it in C hoars It minutes 45J seconds. Another application of St Jacob's Oil was made, arid it remo,ved*all feel ings of fatigue and I felt perfectly fit for another race. Am positive it aided me to win tho match, and [ahull never enter a Bimilar contest without a bicycle and St. Jacob's Oil. I strongly advise all " wheelmen.and other athletes togivo it a trial, and feel fully con vinced their experiences will compare favour ably with my own. I remain, dear Sir, '"'■ Yours trnly, John.Rolfe. CRICKET.

There is scarcely any eruption tmt will yield to "Sulpholine" in a few days, and commence to fade away even if it seems past cure. Ordinary pimples, redness, blotches, Bcurf, roughness, vanish as if by magic; whilst old, enduring skin disorders, that have plagued tho sufferers for years, however deeply rooted they may be, "Sulpholine" will successfully attack them. It destroys the animalcule which cause these unsightly, irritable, painful affec tions, and always produces a clear, healthy natural condition of the skin.
