A TRAVELLED MAORI.

Some of His Experiences as a Circus

Exhibit.

Kiwi, the Coromandel native, who went to Amorica with Cole's Circus some four years ago, returned by the mail steamer on Satur day. He had been engaged through the Star Office for Mr Colo, and he naturally had a desire on returning to New Zealand to call on his journalistic friends. Kiwi left our shores an untutored savage, and has come back to us a coloured gentleman of tho masher type-collar and tie of faultless shape, rings, albert, watch, and other outward tokens of well-to-do centility. Ho informs us that athough Mr Cole only agreed to give him XI per week, when he got to America his salary was in creased to 25 dollars; indeed, it appears that Kiwi enjoyed himself thoroughly, and was well treated. He has saved 2,500 dollars, which speaks much for his shrewdness. At ono timo during his travels the troupo of "naked savages from uncivilised Now Zealand," as the Circus bills expressed it, consisted of our friend and six Mexican Indians, and it was part of Kiwi's duty to paint the faces of his fellow-exhibits and initiate them into the mysteries of tho haka. He says the Indians are fine people, and he considers that in many of their habits and ideas they aro beforo the Maoris. During his peregrinations Kiwi visited New York, Boston, Washington, Baltimore, Cinein natti, New Orleans, Minneaopolis, and most of the other large American citios, and subse quently toured through Canada, in Washington ho had an interview with Pre sident Arthur—Herbert Slade, tho half caste pugilist, acting as interpreter. Ho was very much impressed witli the falls of Niagara, where the water came " haeremai kikoni, and, by jingo, sir, it made a debbil of a row." Kiwi says he has had enough travelling about, and ho in tends going back to his old kainga at Kennedy's Bay, wboro, no doubt, he will enliven his follow tribesmen of tho Ngati porou, with stories of " hair-breadth es- j capes and moving accidents by flood and field."

The fjpld medal /or distinction in scienco or art and the professor's diploma which have been conferred upon Herr Schmitt (Conductor of the Choral Society) by the Reale Dantesca Scuola, of Naples, came to hand yesterday by the mail steamer. On the obverse side of the medal, which is about the Bize of a florin, appears in relief the profile of Dante, the Italiaa poet, in Whose honour the school was, 17 years ago, founded and named. The laurel-crowned effigy is encircled by the inscription, "La Scijola Dantesca Napolitana, 1567." The reverse ol the modal contains a laurel wreathed space for the recipient's name, sur rounded with the legend, "Ai Benemeriti della latruzione Popolare." Attached is a ribbon of the Italian colours, with which to hang the medal round the neck. The diploma which accompanies the medal, and parries with it the title of professor, was given on the 10th of August last, under tho hands of the directional committee, the secretary, and the founder of the school. It is addressed to " Signor Maestro c Com positore Carlo|Gustavo Schmitt," who is de scribed as "Professore Onorario della Scuola." These distinctions are both Jiandsomo in appearance and flatter ing in character, and Herr Schmitt is to be cordially felicitated upon h}s attainment of such honourable rewards of merit. Tho presentation of the diploma and medal will be publicly made as soon as the worthy recipient has suflicientlv recovered from thedistressingailment which at present confines him to his bed. Ap important meeting of members of the New Zealand Rifle Association was held at the Drill Shed on Saturday evening last, Captain Mahon presiding. There were 30 members of the Association present. A resolution was carried recommending Government to place the s.s. Hinemoa and s.s. Stella at the disposal of the Association for the purpose of conveying members to and from the annual shooting meet ings. Resolutions condemnatory of tho management of the Association by the Council was also carried, and it was unanimously agreed that at each annual meeting of the Association a ballot be taken of members to decide the town in which the noxt succeeding meeting shall be held.

The first big election in connection with the Aupkland Parliamentary Union—the contest for the Tauranga spat, wfll take place at Robson's Rooms this evening. The hours of polling are from 5 p.m. to 7.30 p.m., between which hours voting papers may be obtained by members of tho Union at the polling place. Tho can didtes nominated aro as follow :—Messrs Edmund' Bell, W. G. Connolly, R. McD. Scott, and W. E. Meats. The "codlin moth" appears to havo created a mild sensation in our midst, exer cising to no small extent the minds of im porters of fruit. As we anticipated, all the consignments of American apples per Zealandia, which amourited'to about 1,800 cases were detained by the Customs authorities. They wero stowed in one of the sheds on Queen-street Wharf and will be released so far as they are found exempt from the pest. It therefore remains for consignees to have their shipments examined by the Custom house officers, when those packages which these gentlemen pass may bo removed, tmd those which are found to contain any speci mens of the much dreaded "moth will be dotained. What tho ultimate fate of tho latter may bo has yet to be decided. A telegram forwarded by Mr C W. Griffin, U.S. Consul, to tho Hon. W. H. Reynolds, acting Minister of Customs, has produced a reply to the effect that the Hon. Mrßey nolds does not think that tho New Zealand Government is under obligation to publish a proclamation in reference to infected fruit from San Francisco." Tho telegram has been handed by Mr Griffin to the Chairman of the Auckland Chamber of Commerce, and will be considered at its next meeting. "The business to bo brought before the Auckland Parliamentary Union to-night is of a particularly interesting character. Tho first order of the clay is the moving of the second reading of the Land Act, and should that bo disposed of, the following orders will be discussed: — Plurality of Vote Bill, Railway Administration Bill, and Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Amendment BiU—the last-named to. bo moved by Mr Thos.

PARLIAMENTARY.

(BY TKLEGRAPH.-SPECIAL REPORTER.)

Welunuton, this day. The Proposed Minister of Minos.

It is said that the bill to amend the civil list, of which Mr Stout has given notice will provide for tho appointment of a Minister of Mines.

Restrictions on Sheep Trafllo.

Mr Moat today presented a petition from the Rodney Agricultural Association praying that ship-borne sheep certified to be clean may be freed from the present dipping restrictions. Return of an Auckland Member.

Mr W. J. Hurst, who has been seriously ill, is now restored to health, nnd his physician tells him be is better now than when he came to Wellington. He is, how ever, prohibited from taking any further part in the work of the Session, and will leave for Auckland on Friday next. He has not neglected tho interests of his con stituents during his illness, all the matters i referred to him having been attended to. The Upper Chamber and Government Bills. The greatest interest is centred the fate of the Government policy bills in the Legis lative Council. It is known that there is very strong feelin" against them in tho Council, but whether the "Lords" will have the courago to throw thorn out is quite another question. There aro many mem bers who boliove thoy will, but tho weight of opinion is the other way. Such a stop means tho resignation of tho Ministry, or the reform of the Upper Chamber as both, and tho feeling is such that the " Lords " i can feel none too safe

Charitable Institutions.

Captain Daldy has arrived from Auck land, and will interview the Government cither this afternoon or to-morrow on tho subject of the maintenance of hospitals nnd other charitablo institutions in Auckland.

North Auokland Railway. Respecting the Kamo-Kawakawa Rail way, I understand that before his illness Mr Hurst waited on tho Minister for Public Works with the object of urging on him tho necessity for an extension of the line from Helensvillo north of Auckland. Mr Richard son assured him then that nothing would bo done until he had mado a personal inspec tion of both routes.

Logislotlvo Half-Holiday.

Is is unlikely there will bo any sitting of tho Houso to-night, owing to to tho Minis terial ball. A number of mombors are at tho Basin Keserve, playing a cricket match against tho Civil Service. Thcro has been quite a rush for pairs for this offornoon's sitting.

Tho Infirm Ministry,

The state of Sir Julius Vogol's health is such as to cauao extreme anxiety to his friends. He was unable to como into tho House at all on Friday, b-it is somewhat hotter since. Hon. Mr Ballauco was aluo suffering from illness of some kind last week.

The Government and tho Mail Sorvloo,

It is stated that Government havo in contemplation tho sale of tho steamor Hinemoa and the purchaso of tho Union Company's fast boatTakapuna in her place. Tho Taknpnna is a great deal faster and draws several feet less of water than the Hinemoa. Sho has cabin accommodation for all the members, and would bo used for the rapid transmission of tho San Francisco mails from port to port.

Sir Georgo Grey and tho Stout -VogoJ Ministry.

Referring to Sir George Grey's supposed defection from tho Government side of the House, the " Post" says ;—" Tho evil fate which has befallen nearly all of the many bills introduced this session by Sir Goorgo Grey seems to have soured thnt honorablo gentleman's temper. Within the last week he has suddenly become absolutely vicious, and ha 3 attacked the present Ministry almost, if not quite, as fiercely as ho used to denounce Major Atkinson and all his works. This is really very unkind of Sir Georgo, because the Government havo treated him with great tenderness—too ten derly we think ; and it is not through any fault of theirs that his bills to Bet every body and orerything right have como to grief. They gavo him every pos sible latitude, we might almost say assistance, in cases where they wero blamed, and we think rightly so, for not taking up a firm stand in op position to his proposal. Of course they knew if carrying theso bills on to a certain stago pleased Sir George Grey, it could not produce any permanent harm, the House being quito sure to disposo of thorn sooner or later. All efforts mado to placato Sir Georgo Grey, however, have signally failed, and ho now has declared himself openly op posed to tho Ministry nnd its policy. YV o think tho Ministry is to be congratulated on the fact, Sir G eorgo G roy _ political friendship is moro to be dreaded than his open enmity. Tho suspicion of being under his influence naturally causes distrust in any Ministry. The House and country will havo far greater confidence in the Stout-Vojjel Government now that it is known that Sir Georgo Grey has broken witli them than it was possible to havo while it seemed to exist under his patronage. It is a good thing that tiie breach has occurred, and it will tend to strengthen tho Ministry. Sir Goorge Grey's influence is now far less than it ever was, and it may well be doubted whether it really extends beyond his own vote. He will" never really support any Ministry which ia not completely under his control."

SAVAGE ASSAULT AT SEA.

(BY TELKORArU—fRESS ASSOCIATION.)

CiiniSTCHUBCH, this day,

At the R.M. Court this morning, Patrick McCarthy, seaman, was charged with mak ing a murderous attack on Captain Richard son, of the barque H. J. Libby, which ar rived from Boston on Saturday, after a voyage of 108 clays. Tho assault, which took place on the high seas, is thus described by tho captain in tho ship's log-book:— " On October Ist, hearing a fight on tho quarter-deck, I ran on deck, and found the mate and Patrick McCarthy struggling together I immediately separated them, MoCaithy ran towards me, swearing that ho would kill the mate. Went to my cabin to put on shoes, and I went forward to try and quiet the man. I found McCarthy in the fore castle with a knife in his hand, and ordered him on dock. He replied :' If you want me, como in after me.' I told tho second mats to take him out, I following myself. Immediately on this McCarthy made a rush at me, and stabbed mo on the left sido above the hip, tho knife running down towards tho groin. I drew the knife out ; had him put in irons in the lazaretto, McCarthy still swearing that if ho got loose ho would do for both tho mate and myself. Fearing ho might succoed in breaking looso, I had him chained down with his hands behind him." Captain Richardson, who is recovering from his wound, kept McCarthy in irons and gave him in charge of tho police when tho ship reached port.

MINING NEWS.

(by telegraph—own correspondent.)

Thames, this day. Qitkkn of BKAUTV.— Tho contractors for sinking tho shaft havo commonco'l opera tions. As showing the capabilit ■ sof the machinery under the present arm gement, the manngor has calculated that tho influx of water during 252 hours was reduced in tho short fpaco of l'-'O hours, without re course to tho auxiliary steam power which is always available. A promising leador, 18 inches in width, and having a similar strike to tho cross roof, has been met with in tho drivo^on tho Vanguard lode. The manager has a trial parcel from tho latter on hand, which ho will crush during the weok, and he also intends broaking another from the now loader.

Dkki- Level Cross.—On Saturday after noon tho managor found colours of gold whon breaking down tho leader intersected in the crosscut at No. 5 level. The leader is believed to correspond with No. (5 reef of the old Crown Princess mine, so that it is the reef for which tho crosneut was com menced by tlio Imperial Company. The discovory of gold at this depth is most encouraging, and should stimulate the Mariner directors to resuming operations. The idea of extending the present crosscut to the Mariner shaft, and sinking the latUr about 40ft. to connect with it, nppoars to bo much favoured by experts. Stoppage of PuMi'iso Operations.—A serious accident to the Big Pump machinory occurred at an early hour this morning, tho " junk ring " of tho piston, a massivo piece of ironwork,having Deon fractured in throe places. Repairs cannot be effected within less than a week, and work in the low levels will bo obstructed for a much longor period. Deep Level Cross.—The manager has taken up a portion of the forfeited Queen of England liconsod holding on the striko of the gold-bearing lode discovered last weok.
