ANGLO-COLONIAL NOTES.

[Fuo.M Our London Cokp.e.si'ondknt.]

-HE annual meeting of tlio Colouial In .tituto was held on Tuesday, under the presidency of tho Duke of Manchester, In tho report there is nothing much which has not been noted in my letters as it camo up in tho course of tho year. It is worth noting, however, that tho Council, though ex presaingitself guurdcdly.ev.dontly approves ot tho Imperial Federation League, and is disposed to givo it all tho countenance it oan. _Tho incomo of tho year is a largo one, C 0,565, while the expenditure has only beon £2,500. Since tho last annual mooting there havo boon elocted 400 new Fellows, as against 4..G last yoar. Tho "World" says: "Lord Dunravon will bo practically Secrotary of Stato for tho Colonies. Tho appointment is in ovory way a good ono, but it was of course neces sary to keep tho future Lord Derby well in hand. Colonol Stunloy is not a strong Minister." "

"An Australian Appeal to tho English Democracy " is tho name of an interesting articlo by Mr Bernard Wiso, of Sydney, in this month's " Macmillan's Magazine." The " Ironmonger" (the loading organ of tho hardware interest) catches up U. S. Consul Griffin, lato of Auckland, and now of Sydney, for some recent utterances anont tho preponderant success of American machinery in Now Zealand over English. It maintains that in the matter of agricul tural machinery and imploments (excepting axes), English makors supply practically tho world, though it has to admit with sorrow that " the apathy and indifference" of other branches of the iron trado in trying to suit the want of New Zealand and Aus tralia are almost boyond belief. Another of Sir Julius Vogol's Littlo Specs. Perhaps it is just as woll that Sir Julius Vogel, instead of being in London to attend tho_ somewhat stormy meetings of tho various public companies—electrical and agricultural—which his energy did so much to promote, is safe away at the antipodos, legislating for tho bonofit of New Zealand. If he woro horo, I'm afraid his sonsitivo feelings might bo somowhat harrowed at times. Hardly a fortnight ago tho share holders and directors of the Australasian Electric Lighting Company (I think that was tho title) wero saying all sorts of un kind things about him, and now the Now Zoaland Agricultural Company is in difficulties,

This Company was started a fow years ago by Sir Vogel .'uliua, W. J. Mudio, Larnach, and a few of their friends. Its nominal capital waa a million, but this was reduced in 18S3 to £900,000, much of it mero paper or shares issuod to tho vendors of the lend bought. On tho more aubstan tial part of the capital there is an uncalled liability of £195,565, which forma part of tlio security for "mortgage debentures," which the Company has succeeded in plac ing to the extent of £549,150. Theso de bentures, it is now announced, tho Company cannot meet, bocauae much of ita land has proved to be totally unsaleable, oven at auction. If I rocolloct, largo tracts of this land wero declared at the timo the Company waa floated to be more rabbit warrens, However, the Company still estimates tho 101,272 acres it possesses as being worth £SSG,_9G, or £5 10s per aero, because it recently sold, or partially sold, somo at pricos which would yield that average. In anticipation of a meeting of tho luck losa dobonture-holdors on tho ,'JOth, a " Dobenture-holdor," writing to "Tho Times" from tho United University Club on Saturday, advised all dobonture-holdors to bo prosont at the goneral meeting, and on no account to entrust tho voting power to the Board by accepting tho managing director's invitation to deposit their bonds with him. Ho objected entirely to tho kind proposal to renew tho bonds for another live years in face of the present scandalous default, both of principal and interest, and nskod why tho uncalled capital of £200,000 was not now called up. To this tho Secre tary, Mr J. S. Cavoll, replied in "Tho Times" on Tuesday a rotieont and precise note under four heads. (1) It was hoped all debenture holders would endeav our to bo present at tho meeting on tho oOth. (-J) Tho uncalled capital is part of t!'o security of the debenture-holders, and it rested with thorn what should be done

with is. (8) Tho interest for July was on h»<_na, and wool— i.»_ paul if tho i___>Uit._oii waa passed. (4) The 7 per cent, hitherto pafd had not been dividend, but a .special allowance from Mr Clarke, a fact whicii had been stated on the warrants.

! Tlio mooting on tho 30th waa strictly i private, representatives of tho prc*s boing rigorously excluded. Subsequently a fow bare facta woro communicated to a re porter. You would scarcely gather from thorn that tho discussion was of tho stormi est possible character, that tbo expenditure of the Company was very caustically criti cised, that Sir Julius Vogol wasroforrod to in anything but loving and grateful terms, and that tho resolutions wero not passed till Admiral Mayno mado it clear that nothing else could bo dono. Such," however, whs tho caso.' Ad miral Richard C. Mayno presided, and said the holders present represented nearly £120,000 in debentures. Tho condition of Now Zealand at the present timo waa very much liko England, and much of tlio land unsaleable Both Sir Julius Vogel and Mr Valentino, their managing director, while in New Zealand, did their utmost to bring about a profitable sale nf land, and notices wero circulated broadcast, so that it was impossible to travel anywhere without seeing them. If it had turned out profitably, tliov would not havo »ad 'to call this meeting. [The Chairman thon read some oxtracts from lotters from Sir Julius Vogel, in which tho latter stated that things wero cortainly improving throughout tho colony, and his boliof that tho land in New Zealand was certain to recovor its value.l Tlioy had all endeavoured to cio their 'Jest' to' sell tho k.nd, 'b,it tho latest telegrams informed the.,, that theyo ha,d boon nq atilo whatever, Tho object of tho meoting was to ask the debenturo holders to poatpono tho deben tures till ISOO. Tho roason was simply that the Company having dono all thoy potfoibly could out in Now Zoaland to sell tho land, the view they took was that in five years, unless something extraordinary happoned, thoy ought to bo ablo to raiso sufficient monoy to pay off all tlio dal3ni.ureo. '" Tha reaolutloh postponing the payment of debentures was finally agreed to. A cordial vote of thanks to tho Chairman closed the proceedings. l'-lnancial. On Monday thero wsa an extraordinary general meeting of tho unfortunate New Zoaland Grain Agency and Mercantile Com^ pany, at which the resolution for voluntary winding-up, which was adopted at tho meot ing on tho 12th, was confirmed. Mr Walter VVoddel and Mr F. E. A. Graham woro appointed liquidators to sco tho concern decently buried,

ACCIDENT.

The steamer Argylo, which arrived from the Great Barrier on Saturday ovoning, brought a passongor named Palmer, who had sua tainod serious injury in the bush, and in^ tended proceeding to the Auckland Hospital. Palmer was alongsido of a preoiplco, when a timber-jack foil from a diatanco of about 20ft., and struck him on his ho*id, indicting serious wounds. This happened on Wednes day last, and ho was unablo to receive medical attendant, having to bo content with tho services of a fellow workman, who bandaged tho injured parts,

aereeant Smith has laid a number of ad ditional informations against neglectful parents for failing to contribute towards the support of thoir children in tho Ideal indus trial and training schools. Ono man named Biehards, who was formerly a butcher at Newmarket, is in arrears to the tuna ot ±,bd. These prosecutions aro instituted under the now law, which differs from the previous Act in so far that parents refusing to obey the order of the Bench may bo sent to prison in the same way as other person neglecting the summons of the Court.
