Your Committeo have to report that tho operations of your Association, in a financial point of view, have not boon much more suc cessful Uian In thopreviousyoarineonsoqutftico of tho heavy b'irden for interest and other charges. The toughing matuh held in June last as regards ploughing was a great success, also as far as tho aitendanco was concerned, but It lacks that interest aniongßt tboae that should tako a part, in it for somo unaccountable cause.

GUNSHOT ACCIDENT AT HUNGA.

A SEBlors accident has occurred to Mr

Lockwood, who was out shooting with a friend. It appears that whilst in the act of holding the barrel of the gun in a downward position, the trigger caught in some under - growth, causing the weapon to explodo. The charge of shot ploughed up the muscles of both thighs in several directions, and the sufferer was taken on a sleigh to his futher's house, the rough roads causing consderable pain. A messenger was at once despatched to Messrs Erson and Stallard, surgeons, of Otihuhn, and the latter gentleman was promptly in attendaree. Upon arrival he removed a number of shots from tho lower part of the body and dressed the wounds. We are glad to hear that, considering the severities of the injuries, Mr Lockwood is progressing favourably, his medical at tendants having every hope of complete recovery.

Mr Hudson, who takes the place of Mr A. V. Macdonald as traffic manager on the Auckland Railways, has entered upon his duties here. Mr Hudson, wo believe, occu pied a similar position on tho Wellington Railways prior to coming to Auckland.

The teachers of the Ponsouby Baptist Sunday-school held their quaitely tea-meet ing last evening, at tho residence of Super intendent.]. S. Itiglow, and spent a very enjoyable evening. They embraced tho opportunity to present Mrs A. 0. Knight (nee Hiss Owen) with a handsome writing desk, as a token of their esteem on tho oc casion of her marriage and severing; her connection with tho school. Dr. A. 0. Knight replied in a suitablo manner. The presentation was made by the Key. Charles Carter.

A very pleasant gathering took place last evening at tho Franklyn lload Scliool-room, viz , the assembling together by invitation from the superintendent (Mr R. H. Chester) of the teachers and elder pupils of the school to a social union, about Hu boing present. Tea, etc., wore provided, of which all heartily partook. After tho inner man hud been satisfied, a business mooting was held iv the welfare of tho school. and somo useful suggestions were thrown out which are at present under considera tion. Afterwards a pleasant hour was spent in convivialities. Altogether, an enjoyable evening was indulged in. A union of this nature undoubtedly con tributes in o great measure to the success ful working of the school and to drawing closer tho existing relation* of the officers, teachers, and scholars.

Numerous complaints have been made by Ponsonby boat-owners that they cannot leave their vessels at anchor with any prospect of safety, owing to tho misbehaviour of somo boys in the neighbourhood who np pear to think nothing of hauling up a yacht's anchor,' making a trip round the harbour, and leaving her in somo place most convenient to them selves. Yesterday afternoon Mr Pot ley'.? yacht Glance was lying at anchor in front of.Mr 'Witherford's boat shed, whoa a youth, without any authority from the owner, wont on board, hauled up her anchor, hoisted all her canvas, and was about to go for v cruis.e, %I'hen a sudden squall struck tho vessel, and as she had no ballast in, she capsized and sunk almost immediately. Fortunately tho accident was observed by Mr Webb, jun., who went to tho boy's assistance in a dingy, ana rescued hi") from a perilous position. Owners of vessels, upon catching boys playingtricks like these, would do well to give information to tlie police, which, no doubt, is the best way to put an end to this dangerous practice.

The annual soiree in connection witii tfye BirkenheadandNortheotoWetloyanChureh was held last night at Mount Zfon Church, Birkenhead, and notwithstanding tho in clement weather which prevailed at tho hour appointed for the gathering, there was a very largo -s^epdanco of friends and visitors. Tho chuu.il wqp beautifully decorated by tho ladies, thii WtQ.V* residents of the locality kindly forwarding .donations of flowers, which, in conjunction visi, tho torus and nikau collected by tta. young .men, tended to a combfimtion of aathetfcfsni which called forth the admiration pf tho Auckland visitors.
