and spent the day at Normanhurst, Sir Thomas, and Lady Brassey's wonderful country house, I have not been able to see_ them since. Old Hori and Topia have left Demetre House to lodge with Young, the King's favourite tailor, who has promised to feed them for as a week less than Mrs Saints bury. Mr Chesson is trying to persuade them to come back again. Mayall, the famous Bond-street photo grapher, took portraits of Tawhiao and his chiefs, singly and in a group, on Monday. Mr Chesson thinks it probable that the Colonial Ollico will offer to entertain the Maoris for tho remainder of their stay in England, and appoint an olticial to look after them and show them round. The Maoris have received invitations to visit the model farm of Mr James Howard and the country seat (near Middlesboro') of Mr Theo. Fry, M.P. - Tho Frozen Meat Trade. Tho frozen meat trade continues in a sadly depressed state. The arrival of five moat ships simultaneously has swamped the market with New Zealand mutton ; in fact (as I told you last week), many sales men will take any price to get rid of it. The nominal top rato at present is 5d lb. Some few of the Oamaru'.. carcases turned out bad. I have »ot nearcl tlie supposed cause. , „ ... , ... The cheese sent over per Imli.h iving was first-rate, and fetched 00s pet- cwt., a better prico than prime American. A vory important meeting ol JNew Zealand gentlemen interested in the frozen meat trade took place at the Agent-General's offices on Friday last, with a view to pro viding further facilities (such as a thawing chambor) for regular importers. Sir E. D. 801 l presided, and amongst those present were Messrs Studholmo, Chambers, Peter Cunningham, Cowlishaw, Douglas, McLean, ClifforcC Rich, the Hon. Mr Peters, and Sir John Hall. Messrs Clifford (sun of Sir Charles Clifford), Studholmo, and Peters were appointed a Committee to inquire into the matter, and confer with the importers. The meeting then adjourned till Saturday next (tomorrow), when a number of the principal importers will bo present. Conferonoo on Imperial Federation. I have received an invitation to n "Con ference on Imperial Federation" which is to take place at tho Westminster Palace Hotel on Tuesday next, the 2!) th instant. The Secretary (Mr Francis Labilliere), in enclos ing the card, says—"Those invited have to b- informed that by accepting thoy will bo understood to pledge themselves to the principlo that tho unity of the Empire shall be permanently maintained." Many colo nists from all parts of the world have ex pressed sympathy, including Sir Henry Parkes, Sir Thomas Mcllwraith, Mr J. li. Patterson, Mr Thomas Archer, and Mr W. Gisborno. Of English public mon who ac cept the basis and have promised to attend the Conference are Eight Honourablcs W. E. Forster, W. 11. Smith. Gosehen, and Sir M. Hicks-Boach, Mr J.

THE ELECTRIC LIGHT.

On board the Triumph may be seen work ing a largo dynamo electric lighting machine, lent by Messrs E. Porter and Co. to licht up the Dock by night, to enable tho mento proceed with the work of riveting more easily than by the light of gas, the latter burning unsatisfactorily in the wind. The wholo installation has been made by Messrs Holroydo and Co. (electrical engi neers), of Customs-street West, who have, under tho difficult circumstances and obstacles placed in their way, succeeded in lighting the Dock with a brilliant light, and under whose management the machine is running. Laet week, while the nights were calm, about fifty incandescent lamps of twenty candle power each were used and distributed all round the bows of the ship, showing light to tho workmen ; and last night, one side only being required to be lighted up, an arc lamp of about 2,000 c.p. was used, as the gas was blown out by the wind. The are lamp was placed in position about 0 o'clock, and lighted up the Dock until 10 o'clock, at which time the work was suspended. The light was found to be all that could be desired, the wind having no effect on it, and work was pro ceeded with with great facility. We may state that a great deal of interest has been displayed in Auckland by the novelty of work being carried on under such an efficient light, and trust ere long to see this light supersede the gas in many places that require better illumination.

It would appear that all flues imposed at the Police Court for offences committed in Parnell find their way into the coffers of the city of Auckland, and at the meeting of the Parnell Borough Council last evening attention was drawn to the matter, and the Town Clerk instructed to make inquiries.
