Ward Allocation.—The City Treasurer forwarded a memo, requesting authority to charge to.East .Ward tho sum of £3,200,, bp}qj{'-CounpU'jj. propovtio'li of cost of cutting down Emily }?lace. .The item had been inadvertently over looked when tho appropriations for tho various wards were settled.

Lock Hospital.'—The Visiting Surgeon reported that during tho fortnight three patients had been admitted and three dis charged, leaving;six.Btill under treatment.

EixiOTT-siKEßi.it— Cr. Montague pointed out that the express .waggons stationed in Victoria-street frequently extended across the front of Elliott-street, thus obstructing the thoroughfare, and that gi eat inconve nience was caused to pedestrians thereby. The matter was referred to the Inspector of Carriages. ■ . - • r : ' Patte^on-strekt.--Cr.! Cooper asked it tho Engineer had instructed the poancil

ejaiploydr tp fill up the Patt3s6h - stree*t footbath to permanent lcveli at one spoti only, viz., opposite Mr. Theo. Cooper's new shops. Very great complaint was being mftdo of this obstruction to foot traffic, which was unsightly, inconvenient, and dangerous. It was unpleasant for him to hear peoplo,misled by the fact of the name c|. tho owner of the favoured property beiifg tho? aiac as-his own, remark that th^s was onq result of hia elevation to tho Coun-. oil.—The Engineer. replied that he * had simply been instructed to fill in opposite Mr Theo. Cooper's shops, that the front of Mr Brown's premises^ was to be similarly treated, and that the remainder of the street would receive attention shortly. Finance Committee. — On the motion of the Mayor, Cr. Waymouth's name was added to the Finance Committee.

Ponsonby Levels.—lt was resolved, as advertised, to fix the levels of Church street (from Bayard-street to rope : walk) and Ponsonby Terrace (from Bayard-street to rope-walk), no objections to same having been received.

■ Hoßsoif-STftEKT Cdttino, etc. — The Engineer reported that the plans for the cutting out of the eastern Bide of Lower Hobson-stroct; including the cubtingto their permanent levels of Swanson, Moore and Chapel-streets, had been laid upon the table. He did not propose to include the formation or drainage of those streets at present, but simply to cut put to full width and depth. The formation, however, could not be made until it was known how the land adjoining the streets was to be dealt with; As one.effect of the cutting, the land from the abutting properties would fall into the streets, and he- wished to know \i the Cpunoil were prepared for- thlsi -On- the other hand, if the roads were cut so as to leave a slope into them, the danger of earth falling from properties would be avoided, but the effect in some of the streets (in facty he might Bay the whole of them) would be to leave only a gutter at the bottom, asthe two slopes would nearly meet when the cuttings were made to the proposed depth. As he did not think it possible for the work to be done in one contract, he recommended as a preliminary operatoin, that Council should come to an understanding with Swanson-street and upper end of Chapel streetproperty -owners.and letin one contract the work of cutting out those thoroughfares; thattlifl eastern side of Hobson-street should be let in another contract about the same time or immediately afterwards; and that the' other streets should follow, as he had no doubt the property-owners would perceive the advantage accruing from the works. The Engineer also reported that Mr Vanßreda.ofWeUington-street^had removed the earth that was sloped into nis property with his consent by the contractor, and that the result had been the breaking away of a portion of the earth from the street to tho street's injury. — After oowidorablo dis. cussion upbn tho portion of the report deal ing with ' Hobson, - street and adjacent streets, it was resolved, upon the motion of C'r. Montague, seconded by Cr. Dignan, ''That the work bp let In one or more contractl!, the streets being' cut down perpendicularly, and that the grounds of individuals bo cut out or eloped, and their buildings lowored to the new level at the expense of the Counoil."—The clause-of the report having ie"erenco to Mr Van Breda's action was referred to the City Solicitor, tho Engineer in the meantime to fer.es off the land alluded to. , .; ■■'■'■'■ : ■*' ;

Works in Watkhloo Quadrant, etc.— Cr. Aickin moved, " That the Engineer be instructed to preparo plans and specifica tions for the modified works in Waterloo Quadrant, Alton Road, and Symonds-stieet to tho Choral Hall, as recommended in his report No. 3,651." He did not expect the work to be done this summer.—Cr. Crowther seconded.—The motion was carried. -

Ufpeii QOBENSTBBET. —Cr. Crowther moved, " That the Engineer be instructed to prepare plans and specifications for for' mation of the bottom of Upper Queen street to its permanent level in conjunction with the cutting out of Ootmrg-street."— The resolution was seconded by Cr.; Burns and agreed to. . '

Tberon^b minutes were then read, and the Council rose. • . <

MR CALDWELL'S DISCOVERY.

Tn£ following is a synopsis of the discus sion at the Britoh Association's meeting at Montreal on Mr Caldwell's discovery. On -the 3rd inst., "the president of tho bio logical ceitioo, Professor Moseley, read a telegram from Professor Liversidge, of Sydney, New South .Wales, statirg that Mr Caldwell tinds tho monotremes to be Vivi parous with meaoblastfc (rvum. Professor Moeeley said that this contained the most important scientific news that had been communicated to the present meeting of the Association. Mr Caldwell was sent out to Australia as the first holder of the Balfour studentship, founded in honour of the late Professor F. •M. Balfour, of Cam bridge, for the prosecution of natural history research. The founders could not have wished a mat's* glorious tribute to Professor Balfour's memory than the result announced. Briefly hia significance was thus explained; The lowest; known mammal, the ornithorhynchus or duck billed platypus, and the.lechidna: or so called spiny anteatei1 of the Australian legion, although like other mammals they suckle their young, lay eggs like birds*. Further,, the early stages of development of the- ovum are unlike all other mammals, including, as Mr Caldwell has shown, mar supials, hut are identical with ■ those of birds and reptiles. The 'segmentation of the ovum is mesoblastic, not holob lastic. These startling and important results, he continued, point to the origin of tlje monotremata, and thus of all mammalia, and incidentally of man him self, from the reptilia rather than from amphibia, which latter origin has been lately advocated by several naturalists of the highest distinction. Professor Dobsoh >spoke of the extreme importance of Mr Oaldwell's discsvery, and Mr Sedgwick moved a vote of thanks to Professor Liver sidge and Mr Caldwell, which was adopted."

' has developed on infant pro digy in the person <?f a Uttld girl not four years, old, who is possessed of a memory so retentive as to enable her to repeat poetry as readily as the majority, of children are able to do at 15 Or 16. Ethel Anderson—for that is her name—is a tiny little creature about two feet high, who is almost certain to bo hoard more pf "in later years. H^r, memory is something wonderful, and the feats which she is able to accomplish can hardly be credited. She finds no difficulty wbafaver jn ppm.mitting to memory page after page of poetry, ana oan repeat several versespf any poem affer hearing them Once. Her tirgt appearance in publio was made at the anniversary celebration of the John. Knox Lodge a waok or two ago, on which occasion she recited •" The* Littlo Vulgar1 Boy," of 24 vorses, and immediately after wards repeated another piece of eight verses, standing on the table for the pur pose.. . ■ . • '

- Theantumn session of tho Imperial.Par liament, which has just been opened*,- -will not be complete' without a "Bradlaugh episode," and we may expect shortly-to hear of that gentleman trying to force his way into hjg seat. Wifch reffcrencoto tho position which ho wo«ld occupy at7 the opening of tho autumn session, Mr Brad laugh some weeks sinoeiwrote as follows -.—, "By tlie prorogation of Parliament the sessional resolution carried against me on the motion of Sir Stafford ' Northoote, on February 21st, has ceased to have any validi|y, and on the opening day of the opening session there will be no difference in my,.position and lhat of any other duly elected member who has not yet taken the oath and his seat."
