PARLIAMENTARY.

(BY TELEGRAPH.-SPECIAL REPORTER).

Wellington, this day. Defeat of the Government on the South Sea Bill.

The determination of tho Government not to press tho South Sea Trading Company Bill beyond the second reading this session did not save that measure from an untimely fate. It was thrown out on the motion for the second reading by a majority of eleven. Sir Julius Vogol moved the second reading in a clever speech, in the course of which he referred to the growing importance of the South Sea Islands, and the evident desire of foreign Powers to secure their trade and commerce. He said the islands in question were capable of carrying"some thirty millions of Eur6peans. New Zealand possessed many-advantages for the development of vanouß«bIrOTWBeB of trade with them. He pointed out that Auckland especially would derive largo ad vantages from the Company, the head quarters of which would have to be there. Apart from the merits.of tho scheme, it was evident from the tone of the dis cussion that followed that the probability of Auckland benefitting to any great extent was the principal ground Of a grta1; deal of opposition from Southern men. Mr Moss wag the only Auckland man who spoke on the question, and he opposed tho scheme on the ground that it would tend to crush a number of Auckland business firms who had developed trade with the Soutli Seas with wonderful perseverance and enterprise. Ho held that the desire of the people was rather to .have the present oppressive taxation removed-than to have a large trading scheme of this kind_ forced upon them ; and he denied that this Com pany could exist without creating a narrow minded monopoly. In his reply, Sir Julius Vogel said tho small Auckland vessels employed in the South Seas were not engaged in a lawful trade but in trailic in human flesh— ["No, no."]—and no less than L 150.000 a year was absolutely spent vi the South Seas in that abominable trade. The division list will sullice to show the feeling of the House. The motion for second reading was lost by 39 to 28. Tho following is the division list-.—Ayes, 28 : Ballance, Bevan, Bradshaw, Brown, .1. C. Buckland, Cadman, Dargaville, Fitzherbert, Guinness, Hamlin, Harper, Hobbs, Joyce, Lance, Larnach, Locke, Macandrew, J. McKenzie, O'Callaglian, Pearson, Rich ardson, Shepherd, Shrimski, W. J.

Wahanul and Native Affairs,

Tlio Government offered no objection to Wi Pore's motion thnt YVahanui ho heard nt tho bar of the Houho prior to the second reading of tho Native Lund Settlement Bill. Tho motion was .therefore carried without dissent. It is understood that Wahanui's speech will embrace a large number of grievances under which the natives claim to bo Buttering.

Special Settlements In tbe Colony.

Speaking in tho House last night on the failure of special settlements in the colony, Mr Rolleston pointed to To Puke as the most successful of. these settlements. He added that tho success of that was duo to the 4,000 acres which ho had thrown open to tho deferred payment selectors of tha colony. Steward's Island and Jackson's. Bay settlements were men tioned as (frous failures. Mr Mac andrew submitted that tho special settlement of Otago was the most success ful in the colony, and also pointed out that the Nova Scotian settlement in Whangarei district was also successful.

Questions Answered.

The following information was elicited from Ministers in reply to questions yester day :—By MrMacandrew, thatthe questions of the law relating to the currency and the establishment of a Government; land bank were of considerable importance, and Government would take steps to obtain in formation on the subject from England and India; by Mr Cowan, that the whole question of charitable aid was in a mess, anil it would be for Government during the recess to decide upon some system ; by Mr Gum ies , that the Goldfields Committeo waß the body to decide whether it was desirable to call a con ferenco for the purpose of considering and recommending amendments in the Mines Act; by Mr Cadman, that it would cost t9,000 to give effect to the petition of Rolleston and other residents of Block 27, Thames ; Government would, however, tako steps to obtain further information ; by Mr O'Callaghan, that it was undesirable to use tricycles for the delivery of parcels, letters, and telegrams in the centres of population, but they might be used with advantage for longdistance messages ; by Mv Qrmond, that when the main trunk line was in coureo of construction, Government would no doubt ascertain" the best route to connect Hawke's Pay with the central line.

Thamcs-WaiUato Railway.

Colonel Fraser yestorday inquired the intentions of Cfoyernment with respect to that portion of tjjo authorised Waikato to Thames railway between Kapu and Te Aroha. The Minister of Pubjio AVorks said the Government intend to have the portion named completed this year, and to continue the line ne*t year.

'Parliamentary Ball.

Preparations are being made by the mem bers of the Legislature to give a grand ball next Monday in the main lobby of Parlia ment House. It is intended to get up the affair on a scale of magnificence which is expected to eclipse anything of the kind ever witfiessed iv the city. Tha Scottish proclivities of the Otago portion of lion, members have not been for gptten, 'as a Highland piper .with full costume is bejng advertised for for the occasion. Th,o Hoii^e will, of course, not, ait on thp evening in question. A|tp>" *■*>$ M°y°rn.mPnt Camera.

It «ho»ld be ejtajted that the forty-soven mcmboi'fl prssent at tlj.e Ministerial caucus yesterday did not ropresent the whole of the party, some ard6nt supporters of the present administration being absent, The general opinion since the cauoue is that Government will not press the resolution respecting the district railways even in its amended form. The fact tl)ftt so large a pro portion of Government supporters ppposed the resolution created some surprise, and it is said that the party in question is any thing but a bappy family.

Kotorua hoaset,

The report of the Waste Lands Com mittee on the petition of Alfred Kidd and gthcr Rotorua leaseholders was laid before ith/s fffluse yesterday. It says that tho sub je,ct matter pi the report is one for the Uoveriunenjfc ip'^egl with ; the Committee has no recommpn,ijatL.7» to make. When the petition'ww lajd before jthi» House, Mr Mosa made an admirable and forcible£pj>eal on behalf of the petitioners! ' In the'eoti,^ of his aaefiph h.« said lie knew of no case in which toe power .<?.* fetfiainent was so protl- titutedasln thjs case. $c referred to the promises that were made beforp tjip saje, and contended that (bo Government J^eld out inducements to purchasers which were never sought to be carried into offset. He moved as an addition to the report, " Thftt the Govern/pent be requested especially to examine into the allegations of petitioners that they have Builore4 by the retrospective legislation of the Houge." Golongl Frasev seconded the amendment, but it wa? lost on the voices.

Auckland Petitions.

The request of Rodney Agricultural Asso ciation that ship1 borne sheep from clean districts sliould be required to be dipped before being yarded for sale haß been'under the consideration of the Public Petitions Committee. The Assooiution consider that ship-borno sheep and lambs, when accom panied by a clean certificate from a District Inspector, should be free from dipping restrictions. The Committee has not under taken to make uny direct recommendation, but has simply referred tho petition to the Government for consideration.

Ofya E;,3gt and West Coast Railway Bill. Wten t£o #ast and West Coast and Nelson Kfl^ljyay J^ll jyps reported to the Lojyer House from jibe I'^gijktiye Council las| night Sir Juhusyogftl, refeipng jto the striking out of Clause'bve,Wd there was no use in fjghfcipg the question further and Government would acgept the amendment j but as the Council had made thp bill ine ffective in such a manner as to prevent the Company from approaching the work Go vernment would consider themselves free from blame. They would, however, have to consider what was beet to be. done. The work was of considerable moment, and if the object of the bill could not be carried out, some other measures would hare to be resorted to.

MR BALLANCE'S NATIVE LAND BILL.

(BY TELEGRAPH—-FPECIAL KErORTER.)

WELi,iNflTON,thi3 day. Mr Baiaakce's Native Land Settlement Bill, of which I sent a brief outline on Mon day, has now been circulated. It contains 28 clauses, and is accompanied by a map of the land to be brought under the Act. The bill provides that the Government may proclaim land held by natives in Maori tenure and land held by natives under a ward of the Court or Crown graat subject to the Act. A " Native District" subject to the Act comprises land in the Provincial Districts of Auckland, Taranaki and Wel lington. All lands suoject to the Act are to be disposed of only under the^uthority of a commissioner, who is to be associated with two native assetsors to be appointed by the Governor. When native owners desire to dispose of their lands, they shall apply to the Minister whose duty it is at his discretion to recom mend the application. Application may be made at the same time for a definition of a separate interest. If the application has not been passed by the Native Lands Court, the Government, may direct a survey to be made whore necessary, and application to Court for investigation. 'I he Court may make separate orders—(a) In respect of the lands of each tribe, and where so required, in respect of a portion of each hapu thereof, or of any individual owners dissenting from the disposal thereof, or desiring a division of such land respectively, (n) In respect of land to be sold, to be leased, and to be re sorved respectively, the Court shall have power to make division of any land granted to natives as joint tenants or in a manner whereby joint tenancy has been created if granted to natives as tenants in common, notwithstanding that the grantees or any of them disposed of their inteiest or portion of their interest in such land. The Govern ment, on being satisfied of tl c desire of any native owners to dispose of their laud as aforesaid, or if the titles to the land have been defined by the Court by Order-in- Council and gazetted, may declare the same to be open for disposal in the manner men tioned in section 7, sufficiency of reserves to be made for natives and public purposes. Purchasers are to have a title under the Land Transfer Act, lurchase memys and rents are to be paid into a special fund, a separate fund to be kept for each .estate. A proportion of the proceeds, not exceeding one-half of the gross amount from sales and from rents, is to be paid in to the public account, and the other half to the owners. The portion to be paid to the public account is to be applied to the payment of all ex penses connected with the investigation of title by the Court, fees of Court, and costa ordered by the Court (if any) on disposal of such lands, including surveying of any such lands, and of opening up lines of road to give access to such lands, advertising the same for disposal, and of expenses of distri buting tho proceeds amongst the owners. Power is given to the Government to make advances of money to owners of native lands subject to the Act, and it may make, alter, and revoke regulations for making applications, giving notices, keeping ac counts, &o.

CONGREGATIONAL SOIREE.

A soiree and public meeting In celebration of the 33rd anniversary ot the Boreatord-stroet Congregational Sunday-school took place last evening. The hall was tastefully decor, atcd with flowers and evergreens, which produced a very pleasing effect. There was a large attendance, but not ao great as was antici pated, probably owing to the unfavourable Btate of the weather. The tea tables were liberally provided with KQod things, and' were presided over by the followfng ladies: —The Misses Spawn, Tyler, Archibald, Hoskyna «>, Daldy, Hales. Edwards, h Mo- Donald, Mesdainos Eady, liowe. Lyons, Daldy and Service. At the after meeting, which was held in the Church, the Rev, Mr Robertson, pnator of tho congregation, occupied the choir, Aftor (he singing ot a hymn and a prayer, the Secretary (Jlr Cox) read the annual report, which showed that the Sunday-school was in a flourishing condition. Thg number o' scholars had not increased during the year; but as the report stated, it did not follow that no lu-ogroau had been made. Tho average attendance was 250. The yrung ladles1 Bible class, "uriaer Mr Eudy, had {3 on the roll, and the avenge atten dance for tho past quarter was 9T, The young men a class, undor Mr Lvorg, numbered 17, and tho junior nirl-.' class had 19 mcmbo-8.

SUDDEN DEATH AT DAIRY FLAT.—lnquest.

An inquest; was held on Monday last at Dairy Flat, before Mr (J. N. Brassey, the District Coroner, and a jury, of which Mr Ebenener Martin was chose foreman, on the body of Mary Eliza Jeffs, the daughter of Mr Charles Jeffs, nn old resident of Dairy Flat. It appears that the deceased was about 25 years of age, of exceedingly short stature, and had been a cripple from child birth. She never weighed more at any time than 07 pounds, and bad up to the time of death been in fair health. Strango to say, deceased, who slept in the upper story of her parents' residence, came down into her mother's bedroom about 4 hours before she died with a candle, and wanted to know what her mother wanted, insisting that she had heard her mother call her twice. She re turned to her bed, and rose again at 6 o'clopk last Saturday morning, and was sitting by fchp kjtchen fire, watching the bread- baking, when saddeply she leaned her head against .the tide or .the. mantel shelf, and expired without 'anyone tieing near. She.was found by her mother shortly after, in a e'ttisg posture. Jhe jury re turned o verdict of'< found dead, with no murks of violence "

MOUNT ROSKILL RAILWAY BRIDGE.

The approaches to the new biitjjge * over the railway at Mount Roskill Road are now completed so far as to give a clear idea of the tremendous folly of whoever is > responsible tor the conception of the work.' For a distance of about 150 yards the road is narrowed down so as to barely admitof ona vehicle passing another, and woe to the un lucky pedestrian who is caught in this gorge or man-trap with aa omnibus approaching from either end ! There will be the simple alternative of being crushed and mantled by the wheel?, or of leaping over the em bankment and being killed on the hard rocks in the ravine some fifteen or twenty feet below. With the level' crossing thia constituted a danger, and one man some months ago was badly bruised by leaping over the wall; but the consequences of such an action now will be more serious, seeing that the road is so much higher than formerly. To. add to the stupidity of. the arrangement, the bridge is approached at each end by a downward grade, followed by an upward, when a ve>y little, more, earth would hnve made a level approach*on the one hand and an easy and continuous rise on the other. The acme of blundering has, however, been reached in the building of the high stone embankments supporting this narrow roadway right in the centre, bo that when the inevitable widening of the road ha? to be done, both walls will have to be taken down and rebuilt. In the mean time, it is imperative that a footbridge should be erected outeide tho present road way, if passengers are to get over the bridge with any degree of safety. The work should be completed in the course of another day or two.

CORRESPONDENCE.

To the Editor : Sir, — About half-past 8 o'clock tips morning, being in Queen-streor, I saw a number of the letter-carriers, some in a most dilapidated unifoi m, others with none. Can nothing be done to give these trustworthy men a more creditable appear ance ? Falstaff (as£at present) would not inarch them thro' Coventry.—l am, sir, yours truly, Decency.—Oct. 25. i To the Editor : Sir, —It was my pleasure yesterday afternoon to enjoy a pleasant hour or two in the West End Park. There one can sit for horns' and not be tiresome. What I wish to tell is the group of bowf that run all over the gardens seeking for birds' nests. I caught a lot of boys in the valley up on the top of the fir trees, with a blackbird's nest of 5 eggs. Now, I think those pretty tinging birds ought to be pre served. The sweet notes of the thrush and goldfinch, too, ought to be guarded, and boys prevented from touching their leafy homes.—Yours, &c, Andrew Giixisox, Chapel-street, Oct. 27.

To the Editor: Sir,—Much ado about, nothing has been made as regards the appf* question. I think tbe gentleman, who Jjrst commenced tbe discussion made a great inUtake. I can Bay with confidence that the codlin moth is no worse now than it was when 1 started in the trade four years ago. If the public are deprived of apples for three or four months or longer, you destroy their taste for them, ana the pale of Auckland apples when we get them will not be improved. We want to grow a greater quantity of applet) so as to get them cheaper. The people would then acquire a taste for fruit.. The codlin moth will be found (more or less) in all parts of the world, when the seasons are. suitable for its development, especially on light volcanic soils. If settlers would plant apple trees on heavy clay landi in sheltered positions, and well drain-the same, they would not have; muoh came to complain of codlin moths or other pests ex cept in exceptionable seasons. ~: A s long as we have orchards we shall have - various pest?, and must take care to keep the trcei healthy. The earliest and choicest fruits almost liable. I was born in the midst of hundreds of acres of orchards, and' I never remember any of those pests except on low lands of voloanio nature. Those person* who expect to get rid of moths and similar blights had better talk of emigrating to tbe moon, for they will never find it in New Zealand or elsewhere in this world, where we are liable to change of climate. It is found in Hobart Town and Sydney apples, and also in the western counties of England at certain seasons. Therefore, why deprive the Auckland public of. a necessary luxury to satisfy the fads"'of' the few?—l am, etc., W. Sanford, fruiterer, Victoria-street. -

To the Editor; Sir,—l was surprised at your correspondent's remarks oh Seafield Koad in reference to nightsoil. I bog to state for tlie contractor's benefit that tbe men whom he employs to remove, the nuisance often cause a nuisance by scatter ing the soil over our garden paths, leaving our gates open for any stray cattle to de stroy our plants. Probably that is the reason why they. are not more generally employed. lam very sorry for ybuir coif* respondent's weak stomach, but I feel suit he has mistaken the locality, for I firmly believe there is not a cleaner and more ro spectable street in the whole of Auckland. The people take a pride in thijr homes and gardens, and are a pattern toyourfashionabla suburbs. I think it- a pity the writer of the letter did not sign his namelfifnlHo such a misstatemont.—Frob I'udob, Sea* field View.

Mr W. 6. Garrard sends a somewhat rambling, letter on the subject.of.the "un employed" deputation to the Mayor on Friday last. He is "supprised" that'so little satisfaction could be got from ";a man holding such a peshision. The Act of Parliament, he says, clearly meaner.-that local bodies should look to married men first! "His Worship said that the Act| did not 'imply heare. Shurley «ir theact dose not comply to south alone it must mean the north and west and east also," He feels keenly the remark of His Worship that he (Garrard) was •• always vat- ot work," He wHtes s—"urrforchinetly £am out of work this time but i wob not out of work at the last unimployed meeting. Garrard takes it as a Peace of Ignetence, • grate persummtion, to challenc^ liim ,of such a thing as that wich cannot behelpt. Garrard as a simperthiseing feeling for any persen male or female out of werk. :

At the annual meeting of the Waitemafca Minstrels, a report of the proceedings of this popular troupe was given, which will show what a large amount of good may be dons by tho experiences of a company of young men banded together tor charitable purposes. During the past nine months the VV^aitemata Minstrels have given eight of their agreeable, cheer-inspiring evenings, all for causes of benevolence; and not in « single instance has a cljarge been made for the Comriany. The proceeds of ffcese'enter tainments, which have been contributed to charities, clear of expenses, amount to mbra than £200. This beneficent action on the part of the Minstrels greatly redounds not only to their credit, but to tlioir divereifitd talents. We hope that when they, give 1 their contemplated entertainment forthenr Wardrobe Fund the public will recogniaa their services by its liberal patronage..
