We learn that o short timo before her death, Mrs Gillies communicated a message to Sir George Grey to the effect that if a site for a boarding-house in connection with the Grammar School on the Sinclair estate, fronting Symonds-atreet, would bo deemed suitable, she would be glad to convey to the Board of Governors a portion of her property in that locality. We are unaware whether any steps were taken to use this generous offer for the advantage of the school, but the fact that this estimable lady during her last illness was occupied in her mind with the thought of providing for the improve ment of our chief educational institution for boys is deserving of mention. The site is a very good one, and the Governors of the school should consider whether there are still means to carry out Mrs Gillies's wishes on the subject. :

Members of the Licensing Victualling confraternity are busily engaged in getting voters names placed upon the various electoral rolls, and as the temperance people are taking similar precaution* the list should be very complete. Preparations are sedulously going on in both causes for the political struggle that is so rapidly approaching. An order for LIOO worth of books for the Free Public Library was sent Home through Mr N. G. Lennox, by the mail steamer. Special attention has been paid to the requirements of the readers of iictlorv inas much as the list includes 19 of Charles Reade's works, 30 of James Paynfv33 of Mra Henry Wood's and Sir Walter Scott's novels complete in 48 volumes. In addition to these there have been ordered VTilson'g " Tales of the Border," in 20 vols. ; and "Tales from Blackwood," in 24 vols, The works oj practical use are represented by bmitn ana Hall's English and Latin Dictionary, siy volumes of Grammars of Continental Languages. Science is represented by Darwin's works in 9 volumes, history by Froude's works in 9 volumes, and com parative philology by Max Muller's works in 18 volumes. Then there are Emerson s works in 9 volumes, Carlyle's works in 24 volumes, Washington Jrwing's works, and gome miscellaneous scientific volumes.

The Caversham Town Council is engaged in urging the various municipal bodies throughout the colony to press upon the attention of the members of the House of Representatives for their respective districts the necessity of making substantial endowments from the wastelands of tjie Crown in support of the Hospitals and other institutions. A copy ot the circular will engage attention afc the bity Council meeting to-night. Terrible to relate, Dr. Benjamin Ward Richardson, the celebrated temperance doctor; is; if we may credit a contemporary, Showing symptoms oi backsliding. Writ- S"flie™North American Review" on the caneea of infelicity, he cays .-•' I am a total abstaihor, but I am an honest observer also; and I confirm from S^observation' tho old saying, that«wine maketh glad, the heart of man. What is wanted now is that the united science of the age should apply itself toahe problem of giving the world a drink that BhallnTakeglad the hearts of teetotallers witho U tcarryin ?W ithitahyofthe>n Sl d,ous and demoralising effects ot the demon alcohol - a good, honesty fearful drink, which on a cold night might be diluted with' hot water, sweetened with a little sugar, and, perhaps, flavoured With the squeeze of a lemon, and which, under these conditions should have the effect of, for a fleeting moment, lightening the burden of existence, and Joosemng^tho chairi with whioh we are darkly bounU.

In an article on " Farming In Australia the "Globe" says: "The growing prosperity 61 our colonial dependencies is again strikingly illustrated by the tables relating to them included in agricultural re turns. Among them New- Zealand and Queensland offer as --usual the moat marked appearance of progress. In New Zealand there was an addi tion of 25,000 acres to the wheat-yielding area, and the number of byj.sh.ejs obtained Was nearly 200,000 more than it had ever been before." Speaking of horned cattle, the same journal observes :—" In New South Wales the number has been steadily declining for' the last Beven yearn, and to now onl|three-fifths of what It wai 1^1875, On the other hand, in New Zealand it was in the last-mentioned year only about tnree jjftbs'of what it is at present."

A smart shock of earthquake was felt at To Aroha at 6 o'clock on Sunday evening ; another at 1.47, and two distinct shocks at about 2.3 a.m. on Monday,accompanied with a loud rumbling noise and considerable oscillation. The shock at 1.4" was very smart, making houses rock as in a gale. The direction was apparently N.N.W.— Thames "Star" correspondent.
