ARRIVAL OF TAWHIAO.

Grand Reception by the Blue Ribbon Army.

Mooting in tho Temperance Hall.

Tawhiao, the Maori King, and three of his party, who went to England some months ago for the purpose oi having several imag inary grievances redressed, returned here by way of Sydney in the s.s. Wairarapa at an early hour this morning. "His Majesty " and followers had to undergo the customary inspection by Dr. Philson (Health Omcer),and passed the ordeal satisfactorily, after which the steamer came alongside ot Queen-street Wharf, and crowds of people swarmed on board of the vessel to welcome the Kine of Maoriland back to his birth place. From nine to ten o'clock, Tawhno was busily engaged in receiving visits from old acquaintances, and appeared very well pleased indeed to speak to all. Iti conversation with a Star re porter, Tawhiao said he was very well satisfied with the manner in which he had been treated by the people of England, but that at the same time Tie was glad to return to his own people in N&w Zealand. His ona great anxiety appeared to be a doubt as to whether a certain rheumatic medicine " could be procured hern Directly he caught sight of Mr T. B. H 11, chemist, he picked up a bottle labled "chloroform liniment-(poison)," and asked if he could be supplied with nny of that. Mr Hill's assurance in the affirmative seemed to lift a great weight off Tawhiuo'a mind. Inquiries were made as to his health, and Tawhiao replied that he had only the rheumatism to complain of. It troubled him very much. Tawhiao was then presented with some apples — some of those, wo understand, which are supposed to have introduced tho much dreaded " codlin moth." Ho thanked the donor profusoly, borrowed a pen knife, and ate one with evident relish, and in the most approved fashion.. Tawhiao created some amusement at this stage. The knifo handed tohiin had been used for cutting tobacco, and the owner recommended that it should bo washed. Mr Hill tried in vain to turn on the water at a tap, when Tawhiao took tho job out of his hands, and soon had a stream running. His superior knowledge pleased Tawhiao immensely, and he remarked with smiling countenance, " I am like tho young pakeha ; I drop to it quickly." Tawhiao, in answer to agues- , tion, said lie could not yet talk English by any means well, but ho belioved he could haro mastered the language if he had remained another year nt Home. Tawhiao was met in his cabin by Archdeacon Clarke, Rev. Pomare, Messrs C. 0. Davis, T. B. Hill, C. G. Hill, J. Newman, S. G. Graham, Cox, Wallace, Graham Tawhai (the well known footballer), Taoho Raweti, Laurenco, Tanire and Tehira Kawau. The Blue Ribbon representatives made arrangements for a brilliant reception. Tawhiao, Topia Turoa, Patere To Tuhi, and Hori Ropiha, were escorted to carriages in waiting, and, headed by McComish's band, the proces sion went up Queen-street, up \Velles.ley- Btreefc aDd along Albort-Btreet to the Tern peranco Hall. Crowds of people followed the procession, and loudly cheered Tawhiao and party both on leaving tho vessel and on entering the hall.

Speoohes in the Temperance Hall.

Tawhiao and party occupied the platform along with representatives of various lodgos of Good Templars, and tho hall was crowded. Tawhiao woro a handsome ro galia of gold on crimson, while Tor ia also wore regalia with the letters S.D. over R.W.G.T., and Hori Ropiha regalia with the letters G.D. over R.W.G.T. Among those present were Mr C. O. Hill, representing tho Lodge of Grand Coun cillors, Mr Longbottom (Grand Secre tary), Mr Bailey (Grand Treasuror), Arch deacon Clarke, C. 0. Davis, and the Rev. Pornaro. The three latter spoke words of wolcome to Tawhiao and party, after which Mr J. Newman read the following ad dress :—" To our friend Tawhiao and hiß companions, who have come from distin guished personages in England. Welcome, 0 friends. Welcome to you hero, bearing with you tho kindly aesurances of tho gentlemen of London. O, brethren, wel come to your settlements, taking thither the influence of your faithful adhesion to the excellent obligations of tho Blue Rib bon system, your adhesion to which has been proclaimed in the news papers of Europe, and applauded by the people of Britain. Now, as tho nations beyond the sea have commended you (or keeping your pledges in respect to the Blue Ribbon Army movement, the Com mittee here respond, and now invite you to the shore. This invitation to land is based on the principle that love which comes down from Heaven, and which makes men one in arms, which enables both Europeans and Maoris to feel that they are elder and younger brethren and fathers and children. And now, 0 friends, to you who are power ful on the Maori side, and who have voyaged across the wide ocean to land in New Zealand, again we say may you prosper and may the Great Gracious Father Sless you and shield you all in the days and theyearaastheyrollround.—(Signed) Joseph Newman (Chairman), Alfred Cox (Secre tary), for the Committee." Mr C. G. Hill then expressed pleasure because of the re turn of the party, and a hopo that they would remain true to their solemn obliga tions not to touch intoxicating drink. Tawhiao (interpreted by Mr C. 0. Davis) commenced by expressing satisfaction at finding tho people here in the same con dition of peace in which he left them, and proceeded to relate how he took the blue ribbon, how he had kept his pledges up to the present, and how he always intended to keep them sacred. He wished all to under stand that thore was nothing hypocritical about his wearing of the ribbon. He pro mised to do all ne could to spread tem perance principles amongst the natives, but he wished the Europeans to do the same amongst themselves. They should attend to their own side of the matter. The people of England took notice of him because he woro the bine ribbon, and he was at a tem perance meeting at which 5,000 peoplo were present. H» now said to all, " Don't, have anything to do with waipiro.'' Tawhiao then signed a petition which had been prepared for presentation to the Go vernment requesting that a proclamation be issued prohibiting for ever the sale of in toxicating liquor over a certain area in the King Country. There was one thing. He was at one with the Europeans about the drink, but he would not agreo with their politics for some time to come. Patara and Topia aho spoke, and each signed the petition amidst great applause. Ho said the matters which induced them to go to a distant country affected the whole of the Maori people. Tho Maori peoplo weresuffering in many ways, and they went Home to get redress for their grievances. - He did not know whether their mission had been a perfect success. Te Wheoro, how ever, who was left in London, would tell fflio, people of the results upon hia return here. Hori Ropiha also referred to the " mission." He said he had seen the great nations of the world, and that there was no drunkenness there. The drunkenness was here—in New Zealand (laughter), and they should try and put it down. This concluded the speeches, and a general invitation was given to those in the audience to follow Tawhiao's example by signing the pledge. A large number responded. Tawhiao and party were afterwards driven to Mr Longbotton's boarding - house in Albert • street. They are to bo present at a Blue Ribbon meeting in the Theatre Royal to night, and at a Good Templars' meeting in Newmarket Hall to-morrow night. After thi3 tho party will visit Orakei, and after that they proceed to Whatiwhatihoe, where a great meeting of natives is to be held.

THE FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY.

Report by the Committee,

The Library Committee having fully con sidered tho best means for selecting and classifying books for the Free l'ublic Library, have drawn up a report, which will be submitted to the Coun cil at their meeting tomorrow night. They repeat the views of the Council in stating that the collection of books should be classified, and made systematically in cluding at first only the best and most in dispensable books in every department of literature, and that afterwards there should be ado" ed, as funds become available, valuable books on all subjects of general interost. They are not in favour of tho appointment of a committee outside tho Council for tho purpose of advising from time to time as to tho books that should be selected and ordered. But as the formation of a library will occupy many years, they recommend the compilation of a catalogue from the best procurable catalogues of other libraries, showing the books that should be purchased for the Auckland Free Library during the next, say, 5 or 10 years, and that gentle men outsido the Council who have special knowledge upon any particular subjects should be requested to assist the Council in the branches of knowledge most familiar to them. The catalogue, when finally settled and adopted by the Council, would remain with the Town Clerk and serve as a guide in ordering books for some time to come. Tho mode of proceeding would bo as follows: Whenevor it was determined to order a parcel of books, the Library Committee would make a selection from the catalogue of works (not previously ordered) and submit it to the Council for approval, tho Council could either adopt the selection mado or vary it, and in varying it, might, for good reasons, add books not included in the catalogue. The books in the cataloguo(to be prepared) might be classified according to tho subject matter in the following order :—Theology, jurisprudence, history, philosophy, science, arts, politics, commerce, trades and litera ture. Tho Committee finally suggest that purchasers should be restricted for tho pro sent to books in tho English language.

THE AUCKLAND EVENING STA", WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1884.



Lambing in Poverty Bay district is very prolific this season. Our attention has been drawn to the fact that in tho annual report on Friendly Societies the Registrar Tiaa adopted tho suggestion made by the Conference of Friendly Societies' delegates held hero some months ago respecting the valuation of lodges. The following: oxtract from the report will be understood by members of Friendly Societies under these clrcum stances (i.e., the misapprehension of mem bers regarding the first valuation): —"The Registrar has made the suggestion that, in the case of each lodge, a second valuation should be made showing the sum the lodge ought to have in hand to meot its engage ments on the most probable assumptions respecting its future experience. Where the funds are well invested, a higher rate of interest than 4 per cent, would be used in this second valuation, and also a reason able allowance would bo made for the profits likely to accrue from future secessions. The valuer would of course point out cau didly that the reserve fund thus indicated could not be sullicient to put the Bocicty in a reasonably safe position, and ho would make his more rigid valuation as heretofore in order to indicate the heavier reserve fund required for safety. The two results would appear side by side, and each could be taken for what it is worth. Many societies which now console themselves witli the reflection that the deficiences which valuers allege against them are merely due to over severity in the standards of valuation em ployed, would be wholesomely astonished to discover that even by the more lenient methods their financial condition was de monstrated to be unsound." A meeting of the creditors of W. F. Hull was to have been held today, but lapsed for want of a quorum. The creditors who did attend decided to adjourn the meeting until 11 a.m. on tho 28th inst, and in the meantime to allow to continue still in abeyance the realisation of the re mainder of the estate.
