Opinions of tlio Press.

(BY TKLKORAPH. —OWN CORRHSPONDENT.)

WiiLLiNiiTON, this day. CoN'cl.nDTN'd mi article reviewing tho work of Ilio HOHsion, the "Proas" of last night

"On no. previous occasion have a

Now Zealand Ministry shown themselves so badly out of accord with public fooling, or so incapable of conducting tho I'arliamcu tury business of the country." Tho " Post," writing on tho samo subject, lias tho following remarks: "Tho session, so far as tho quantity of legislation is concerned, coitainly has not been a brilliant ono. About an average nnm bor of bills have been passod, but the general quality is decidedly very indill'eienl With a very few exceptions, the colony could have done quite as well without the laws as it \\ ill d'j with tliem. Legislation. hjH'ovor, is not tho solu, and scarcely oven tiia highest or most useful, function of I'lirliftino'it. Yet. \vho:i wo eomo to review tho proceedings of tho late scsm'ui in other m.iUwrs, tho retrospect is si ill les3 satisfactory. Tho debates which have tttkon place tiiia comun liavo been of n vory low order Even in an oratorical point (if view, tho speaking has boon much bclo.v the ordinary lovcl. There have not, during tlio .-option, beon half a dozen really good speeches marie, and many of tho b*st speakers in the House exhibited a marked falling off in their power, The whole of llio proceeding* of tho session liavo tended io bring repre eontfttivo government into contempt, and for thitj result the Opposition is equally ti) blamo with tho Government. For the present wo can only say that, looking back at tho session generally, tho most satis factory fact about it is that it is at last over."

CORRESPONDENCE.

Sunday Trams.

(To tho Editor.) Sir,—l quote the following from a paper received by the mail : "At the half-yearly meeting of tho Glasgow Tramway Company, the question of the running of Sunday cars was discussed. The Chairman showed that tho prolits realised by the Sunday cars represented IJ, per cent, of tho dividend. The motion to discontinue the Sunday service of cars was defeated by a large majority." I havo no doubt our Tramway Company will, in a short time, also run their cars on Sundays. Tho fact that they ure run in Scotland—the centre of Sab batarianism—seems to mo a sufficient guarantee that the company would moot with but littlo opposition from Sabba tarianism here.

Scotchman,

Cram in the Public Schools.

(To the Editor.)

Sin, —I am very much pleaneil to notice in in your iasuo ot last evening that you are raising your voico and directing public opinion against the present pernicious sys tem <jf touting school progress by the mort dangerous system of cram. Our pret?ent pupil louclior system does not secure the ljust and highest results either to the teachers or scholars. At an age when yosng aspirants for tho ollice of teichor are beßt htted to receive instruction and least adapted to teach or discipline a class of children, they aro appointed as pupil toachois, find then, after the worry and anxiety of school wort', they are required t-o attend classes and study at homo, in order to qualify themselves to pass thb peri odical examinations required by tho author ities. Iv 1880, after visiting some of the be.st training institutions in England, Europe, and Australia, I presented a repoit to tho Board of Education, and strongly recommended that all those young people who wished to enter the pro fession us teachers should receive the beet eduoation tho colony could give in our high schools and university classes, and then, in a normal school or training college, bo taught tho scienco of education or tho best pcsdible methods o; training the young and imparting information. Education should bo recognised as one of the learned piofessions, and touchers allowed to train tin if pupils in the most approved methods, without that violont and unnatural Bystem of Standard examinations, which, while anpsaring to givo large tabulated results in passes and averages, is in reality opposed to all true mental development and real material progress.—l am, &c,

Jowah Maiitin,

Escape of the Chatham Islanders.

(To the Editor.)

Sir, —My attention has been drawn to an article in your Supplement of the Bth

August, headed —" A Now Zealand .Reininiscenuo — Eactspe of. tlie Chatham Island Prisoners." It purports to be written by n person \vl\o was mate of. the Rifleman when that vessel played such a prominent part in the historj of this' colony. Now, sir, (13 this self-styled mate has spun his yarn, will you allow the captain to have a say! The writer refors to the captain of the Kiflemar. as a Captain B . Well, sir, I invariably use " C." myself, as being more in accordance with custom ana euphony. However, if " the mate" prefers tho " B," by all means lot him stick to it. Referring to tho time immediately preced ing his engagement aboard the Rifleman, ho says that while he " was indolently gazing at the myriadn of small fishos in the clear waters below, a cboery voice hailed him with ' Hallo, Harry.' " (What a pity, sir, lie didn't oonfino himself to tho "gazing," and leave the writing to at least a truthful man.) Here again his disregard for tho mere matter of a name is very marked, since my mate's name at this time was .fames — Jarae* Payne. I qn gaged him at Lyttelton, not at Auckland, and ho was with mo for months before hn started for the Chatham Islands. The wiitar describes the departure of tho Rifle man from Auckland, and her calling at Xaurangi, Napier, and Wellington, wheieas the vowel's movements at this time wore : Lyttelton to Tarannki, Taranaki to Wel lington, Wellington to L'hathams (a ma terial difference to anyone but the writer). Tho writer says Capt. B—— ,vas an old boatswain in the employ. Ho (the unite) hnd left, whereas 1 wag nover boatswain of a ship in my life. He says the captain and ho had been shipmates for two or three years. In reply, I was never shipmate witli the mato (Payne) in any veseel except tbo Kiileman. He says the Rifleman made two or three trips in tho labour traffic, and made an occasional run to Fiji. The Rifleman was never in the labour traffic, and never msdo a run to Fiji, He says " we had taken four passengers aboard at Auckland, all Maoris, bound for the Chathame." The fact, sir, that the Rifle man didn't sail at all from Auckland this trip effectually . docs away with the passenger list, and proves that places as well as persona can be changed at will to euit the whim of this model historian. Wellington was tho only port from which w c took passengers, hence tho beautifully pathetic story of Marts and Honi may be considered quite aa mythical as tho mato himself. Aly passengers from Wellington wore:—Miss Hnydock, Miss Bankey, Mr Chudleigh (of Chudleigh and Patterson, runholders, Chatham Islands), Mr Hood, Mr Kerr, Mr Plummor, and some Maoris. Jhe writer says the detachment at tho tliathame " was a small one, amounting to some thirty men, whilst tho number of prisoners was double that amount." Tho iacts, sir, are that the detachment consisted of only two officers and nine men, whilst tho prisoners numbered throe hundred. (Of courfo, a difference of a few hundreds is nothing to tho mato). I haven't seen tho continued portion of ttiis reliable Reminiscence, bat am told it is quite in keeping with the first pait. in conclusion, sir, allow me to state that no Captain B ever oommanded the Kifle man, and that I have positive proof of the death, years ago, of James Payne, mato of that vessel, when she was seined by the Chatham Wand prisoners. Who the genius is who has arisen to personate him I know not, but liopj jou will not allow such a wilfully distorted account of suoh an im portant event in New Zoaland history to pass without publishing a refutation.— lours, &c,

As contractors for lI.M. Navy, here and in Sydney, largo stocks are kont, on hand, BACON-CURING. Tho Cooling Chambers for Bacon-curine at tho Company's Works in Auckland are now bo far advanced that thi.J Now Industry has beon commenced, and choico Ha Ma Anl> Bacon can bo offered cured on tlio most modern principle, Particular attention will be paid to tho selection of t'ms for thin osu, and on no account will any oxeopt Dairy or (Jokn b'nn Pigs bo purchased, as it in purposod to build up a reputation for an Auckland Ham and Bacon Factory.
