Wkllinotos, Tuesday. Removal of Wardens. A w.N'ti tlisousHion arose out of the ques tion by Mr Pskk to tho GoldliokU Com mittee rognrding the periodical removal of wardens. Mr TOLB replied that six wardens hud been removed. Of the remainder, four were stationed at sraallovgnldfioldß, and could not bo removed, while two othovfl-Mr Kenriok, of tho Thome*, and Wardon Uills, of Hon. tiki - wore kept at tlieir rcapoetivo dis tancoa for special roosoim. Mr Kcnrick wm a very valuable olliciul, and ho also porformod services in connection with the Native Dopartmout; while Mr Oilla acted more frequently as Resident Magistrate than as warden. Colonel FltArtEß said that tho recom mendation regarding (lie removal of wardens had been chiefly on account ot complaints from tho Thames local bodies Licainst Wardon Konrielf. Several other goldlloldrt membora alao objected to tho notion of tho Govcrnmont in noc moving all llio wardens. Mr 'lolk accusod Mr Fraser of having a porßOtial animus against Mr Kenriek, but subsequently explained that he had made tlio statement through a misundorstandiiif,'. The matter then dropped. Ammunition for Volunteers. Replying to Mr \V. Wiuti:, Mi-Ballanck said thero would bo no difficulty in supply ing tho Volunteers with ammunition at coat price. is Employed on tho Trunk Itailway. implying to Dr. Newman, it the portions of (he North Inland main trunk railway ban" made by Maoris wore oflered by nubile tendor to Europeans, M r ItjCHARUBON replied in tho negative Ho said a small part of tho contract had boon put up for competition amongst tho Maoris, and it had been dono in a satisfactory manner, Auckland Railway Land Compensation Bill. On tho motion of Mr Kiouardrok, the second reading of tho Auckland Kaihvay Land Compensation Bill was agreed to.

Criminal Code Bill.

Mr Toi.li moved tho second reading of tho Criminal Code Bill. Ho explained its pro visions at somo length, Btating that it was a consolidation measure which had passed tho other branch of tho Logialuturo toveral time* The main features had boon drafted by tho most eminent lawyers in England. lieuaid that from tho nature of tho bill it must be takon largoly on trust, and ho would ask tho House to sanction it without do i>..i., orl tl.nfc it could bo considered more

bulo, so tlmt It couici oo eousiueieu uium carefully during tho recess. Mr Uowsm Htkwakt thought tlio L.o vermnenl were greatly to blamo for bring ini' down such an important bill at such a latostagoof tho bohbioii. Ho was glad to sco that a provision was inserted which would enable prisoner* to J^ivo ovidenco in their own defence, a course which lie had advocated for years pa?t. ilo thought, however, tint the bill might fairly 1)0 loft ovor till next session, so as to give raoro tinio for it-H consideration. Mr Cunc'i.i.y .-aiil tho bill had been pr/ic lirallv on the table- of the llou.-ofor three

)mu-.-, and w.i) not brought down suddenly, l'ho only praclual way of douliiig with it was Hint sugg> led by tho Minister of .fun tii;o. As tl-.c bill hud buoii prepared by tho most cininciit lawyers in England, lie tub milled thul tho 11...U--U .-iiouki not inlorforo with itadoiMk Mr Ft■i.tiin supported the second reading, :uid L'i'iiciirroil with thu mover's puggostiuti to taku lliu bill very nun-h in i/lobo. Mr Mil ■■ l.lioiiulit tlu b'Udid nut concorn lawyers iTuiie, but thy v.h.10 body of tho people lie Wiiii s-orry to sec tin; obnoxious la«.s us to Hogging j.erp. tn.'ilnl by the bill ; in fijol, tlu.ro wouitd to be many new police iirovivl us introduced in it. lie would vote for tlio torond reading, but lie would gladly see it Mop at that rftdgo till nuxl year. Mr 11 MlHU'i; n LTieMeil (lml ho was unablo to follow a- prudent tlio course propoeod by the Minisiir to pnsu tlio bill in ~/uho. He thought it was utterly in] possible for the House, at t liit» last stage, when members we.iv tired out, to give tlio nocessary attention to tueli v very important

measure. The dbeu.-sion was coiitimiud till the 5..'J0 adjournment,, Employmont of Eoy3 in Printing Offices. At Iho evening BiUitiu! Mr Lkvesta.m moved that tliu amendments lundo by tlio Legislative foum.il in (ho Employment of b'oßisle* nml Others Act be agreed to. Mr riK.i'.-ii.v.' moved an nmendnionts th.it Clause 4' bo not ligreejl to, but I hat 4.'10 bo substituted instead oi f p.m. This is with refcrcisco to employment In iii-iiitijij: o.Hiooa up to 7 p.m. Ho eaid tliut the proprietor of tlio Auckland fruit had only ii.-kul mi extension up to 4.30 p.m., but another Phauibur hud been raoro goner au*. 11 o did not like tho bill at all, but now ollered no objection to tho otlior clausuK.

Captain SrrJT.uhopcd the Hou^o would nnt accept Mr Bi'adshaw's amendment. 110 had been informed by a commercial gentleman in Wellington that industries wero being crippled hero by tlio hampering of in diwtiica.

Mr Co.noMA rcgrotted ihatMrßradsh.iw had not objected to all the amendments of tho Act,

Mr Lkvestas* said tint thoro extra liourn wciv only requiroJ very occasionally u'hon lalo tolegrams were received by evening papors. Jto denied that it was any hard ship to boys' a-> tho work was only lifting papers ell'tlio printing machines. Air I'vKi: opposed Mr Qradehawta amend mcut, ns ho was opposed to legislative restrictions on labour. He believed tho colony wotilil never recover from its depres sion till men and womon woro allowed to work what hours they likorl.

Mr SrorT thought Mr Bnvlshaw's amend ment a fair ono, and aa had boon shown, that wua all that had byen asked for by ono ot iho nowspaperfl alTootcd. On division, tho ehiuto was .-truck out by -I,'! to 30. A com inittoo of throe—Mossrs Stout, liradshaw, and Conolly—woro appointed to draw up reasons, for rejecting the clause

Criminal Coclo Bill.

Mr Fykk resumed the dobato on tho Criminal Coilo Bill. Ho said tho bill was perfect in its drawing, and stood in this respect unrivalled in tho annals of legisla tion. The bill was a great improvement on present penal codes, and ho hold thoro was no means of altering a single clause without impel tiling tho usefulness of tho whole bill. 110 trusted (ho bill would pass its second reading without further debate, and go through committee without any amend ments.

Tho bill was read a socond timo on tho voices.

Tho Rating Act Amondmiint Bill and Land Transfer Bill woro reported with amondmontx, read a third time, and passod.

Tho Property Tax.

Mr Stout moved tho second reading of tho rropevty Assessment Bill. The Bill, ho said, wan a consolidation measure, ro tating to tho assosemont of property for tho Property Tax. Ho explained the nature of the amendment, and said whatover Opinion might bo held by members on thopropcrty tax na against a land tax, thoy must all agreo that tho present law required amend ment.

Messrs Wakeiield, Suttor, Downio Stewart, Buchanan, and \V, V. Buckland helving fpoUen, Major Atkinson said tho bill might bo looked on as a useful consolidating bill, or as a bastard land tax. Hoping to bo ablo in com mitt co to atriks out tho objeotionahle features of tho bill, he would support tho ecconc-1 re.uling. 110 had felt eoinowhat dis appointed that tho Premier had shown no reason for tho extraordinary exemptions ho proposed in tho bill, ile thought tho House would not bo doing ita duty in road jiig tlio bill a second timo unless they were told how much tho revenue would sutler- by tho exemptions uniler this bill.

Mr Stout said that tlie main objection to tho bill was in respect to tho exemptions, but ho contended tint pastoral and agricul tural interests would be placed on an equality. Ho pointed out that mortgages were not oxompt, and that £500 waa not too largo for gonoral exemption.' In reply to Mr Kerr,

Mr M'out said that to tax Maori property would bo to discourage settlement, bocatiso tho Maoris would not individualiso their tit 103. It would bo imposeiblo to Cdtimato tho loss to tho rovonuo by tho bill, but tho amount of taxablo property would not bo docroaßod by tho bill, bocauao other things wore brought under tho tax. The eocond reading was carried on tho voices. Tho House roso at 1 a.m.

Stormy Mcotinp; of Canterbury ami Nelson lUcmbois. (BY TETiKORAI'II.- I'AULi/JihNWUr, KKI'OKTKU.)

Wklmnoto!*, tiiifl day. A CAUCI'.s of Cuntorbury, Nolson, and Wesj.laud momberd yoafonlijj; morning met for tho purpose of considering the Ka.-t and WostCont-t ttnd Nelson railways. A poction of those prosonfc urged that the Government should bo requested to make tho proposal a Ministerial ques tion, qnil threatening not (o con titmo iheir pnpport 'unless this ucro agreed to. More rea^otmblo s-uppomiv, however, thoufjtit- thnt members should lie loft free to vote on thin qnea tion, a? they doomed lit, apart altogether from party considerations. Tho meeting was n Htormy one, tho Nolson representa tives becoming exceeeivoly indignant wbon a proposal wa« made to abandon tho Nelson lino, and an adjournment wna made till next day without liny definite decision being arrived at. f)m iiiLT the afternoon some members of tho Oppomtion wero approached with a view of ascertaining if they would support a proposal to construct tho Canter bury - Wcslland line only, but they oxpreasod in umnistakeable terms thoir determination of having nothing to do with tho railway. Somo half dozen MinietoriulUtA, not hailing from l'roviu cial distiietsnlFoctofl by tho railway, doclare openly that should the question be made a Minii-teiial ono they will vote against tho fiovominpnt, while fchoiilil tho Nelson line li'o dropped Ijt-ssrs Lovcstatn, lluwthouso, and lien1 erasure to L,c drive;] jnto vjnilont opposition. It is said that tho positijn of the I Govornment {j1 now ad critical as it has boon at any timo during tho present ro- HjurUftblo ;ioßsio|). llinistons, knowing the quandary they are in, have gouo on with their (jovorutucnt bills instead of going in to Supply to oon-iiler tho Estimates, as it wan believed they wero likely to do, with a view of bringing the session to an early clc-c. A number of members yesterday morning united on the I'rcmior, and, pointing out that tho timo had arrived when itwas necessary they should return to their homes ntau early dale, uigod that some indication should be Riven of tho measures (] lO Government proposed to pro ceed with thin session.

WELLINGTON HOSPITAL COMMISSION.

(IIV TELF.OKAriI—I'ARUAMKNTATt? REI'OIU'KK).

W'j'XUNiiyoN1, Uii.-i day. It would appoar that tho Oovcrnmont aie unwilling to make tho pitting? of tho Wei. lington Hospital Commission open to the press. At loant, one would infer so from tho answer given to tho member for Mataura. On Monday evening Mr Richardson nskori, without notice, whethor tho Government would tee that tho Coiniuirsion allowed re porters from tho Wellington newspapers to attend thoir meotingr!, but tho Proniier insisted that the question bu put on tho Order Paper in tho usual manner, not withstanding that tho Commission were to meet on tho following morning. Mr Richardson placed his motion on tho Order I'upor, and when he, yestorday aftornoon, asUed "If the Government will permit tho prcsonco of Press reporters at tlio nicotines of tho Wellington Hospital Commission," tho Minister for Justice gave tho t-omowhat unpiitisfactory reply that tho Government could not interfere, a* tho matter was in tho hands of tho Hospital Commission. Mr Richardson then wanted to movo without notice, "That in tho opin ion of this Houso it is desirable that tho sit tings of the Commission to inquire into tho Wellington Hospital management should be open to the- public," but as a dissentient voioo was raised by Mr Tote, tho Speaker had to rule that tho question could not bo put without notice.

SAUSAGE - MANUFACTURING MACHINERY.

MESHIt.i BINRTEAD BROTHERS, butcllOl'B, of Frooman'a Bay, have introduced an innova tion in the businoss in tho form of improved machinery for tho manufacture of sausages, Hitherto tho-c edibles have been rnado by a process that is considered not by any means as clean as it should be, and is withal so noisy that residence within half a tnilo of ono of these1 machines in operation is not calculated to arouse tho most peaceful and angelic emotions in tho bosom of the victim. Tho new machine is known as a "Simplex," and possesses tho great advantage of being nofaeless in action, while at the same time tho hand-churning process which was necessary to distribute tho sausage meat while it was 'being chopped' in tho old machine is no longer required. Amongst bther advantages ovor thp block eausago ohopping machine, the now patent in ques tion buto fuatOr and clcmcr, leaving no ttringy Biibataiicc, it cuts and mixes at tho tamo timo, while tho process, is infinitely more cleanly, and tho bowl being open, allows moro air to jjet to the moat, thus preventing it from heating. That tho con sumption of sausages is sufficiently lurgo to justify tho application of improved machinory to thoir manufacture is proved by' tho fact that on tho day of our vMt Messrs Binstead had already cut lOOlba of sausage meat, while the total amount cut on the provious day was 2001bs. Tho machino is capable of cutting 25lbs of meat in %\ minutes, while under the old ey^em the operation would havo occupied moro than a quarter of an hour. Messrs Binstead and Co. aro to bo congratulated upon the display cf ?o ;auch enterprise in the. interests of their customers.

SUDDEN DEATH OF MR KELSALL, APIA.

A nra'OKT obtained currency in town yesterday to tho ellbot that Mr T. S. Kel-

sail, tho Municipal Magistrate at Apia, Samoa, had died suddenly, just prior to tho departure of tho last mails per tho San Francisco steamer for this port. The new, wo understand, was conveyed in a letter to a gentleman resident here; but as ho left for Samoa shortly after receipt of tho news, wo can not verify tho report. Wo sincerely hope that the report may prove- to be unfounded. Mr KolstUl is a gentleman of much culture and ability, a nativo of Oldhatu, Lancashire, and is pretty well known in Now Zoaland. Ho is related to tho Fletcher family, of Manchester, who rank among the millionaires of England. During tho recent visit of New Zealand commercial dologates to tho South Sea Islands, Mr Kelsall received thtm very kindly, and was of considerable servieo to them in affording information regarding the trade and Go vernment of tho Samoa group of Islands. Ho was then in vigorous health, and though rather past middle life, seemed possessod of a vigorous constitution. The news, if confirmed by next mail, will causo general rogrot.

(To the Editor.)

Sit>,—Would you kindly allow mo to ask through your oolumi.e " What has become of the Secretary, Treasurer, and mem bera of Committee of tho above Asso nation ?" la it not about time an ac count was rendered to outside corps of last year's stewardship, and a vigorous effort made for this year, seeing wo havo now Homo twenty to thirty corps in the Auckland Dit-trict, out of which a very strong Association ought to come. Tho Hon. T. Henderson lust year very kindly placed an excellent range at our disposal, on which twenty or more targets could be placed if needful. Lust year there were only oight targets ; this year I venture to tay at least twenty will bo required. Tho system initiated by .Mr Soall last year, with one or two trifling improvements (the result of experience), would bo found tho lca;t oxponsive of any, especially as tbo lixings of last year are still to tho fore for eight targets. A- I began this loiter, so I conclude it by palling upon' the Secretary to cpnvene a meeting W fild naeiribors, and of all who de- Eiro to bocomo membera ; and in short, go tj work vigorously and at once. —I am, &c, Ax Old Member,

The Social Blot.

(To tho Editor.) Silt, —It is to bo hoped that tho present stir in the public mind will not bo allowed to subside without something being dono to minimiso thu foul evil. In your sub-leador you say, "If the churches ot Auckland had dune thoir duty tho Contagious Disoaao Act need nover have been put into force hero." Is not this merely shifting the responsibility from tho paoplo and the Pre;s '! For instance, is it not the first time that tho public have known through tho press that tho legal ago of consent was thirteen ! 1 think very low know that such was tho case. Thut young childron should be exposed to such terrible danger is extromoly shocking. Only to-day I heard of a child of seven years of age that had been s'lamefully treated, It is disgraceful that our old politician 5, who must have known Something of this terrible foo of purity, should bo tota ly indilllucnt as far in legis lation is concerned. '1 hey wax eloquent over the death of a child through eating tho heads oil' wax vestas, and succeed in get ting a till over tie scoo .d rording to prohibit tho importation uf tho.-o necessary convoi.ioncos. A brewer will second such a resolution, and in his speech stato that no wax vostae wero u;cd in his houso. And yet tho grout p.-ovokor of lust, tho power that binds chains on tho victims—alcoholic and narcotic poisons--are used in this Small community to tho amount of millions of pounds per year. Every paront should bo stirred to tho very dopths of their naturo over this evil.

>* Oman should bo empowered to make her voice hoard in all tocial legislation Both soxes should participate i . any reprcsfivo or preventive measures, That power, that ono of our English At P. 's designates to bo higher than law, viz., public opinion, should bo educated, and guiiW on tliis and all social questions, so that purity through out may be tho rulo and not tho exception. Malo Offenders should forfeit tho respect of tho community, no matter what their social position or tho power of thoir wealth. Wo want an ethical revolution, to securo which the press, Chinch, and people should lift up their voico until, in unison, is heard tho demand : " UiuK out old forma of foul dis.ms".!

The Great Western Tin-Mining Com pany.

(To tho Editor.) Sltt, —In your'issue of Monday, the prospec tus of tiio above Company is published. An investigation of this may be intonating to in tending investors and the public generally, Tho capital of tho proposed Company is to bo £30,000, and 15,000 shares aro offered t>the public 10s pov Bhaitf to bo considered paid up. Of tho paid up capital; moro than half is to go to tho promoters, and tho balance will be placed to the credit of tho Company for erecting building?, furnacec, and appliances for smelting tho ore. No names appear in tho prospectus except that of a solicitor and v tplf&tyled manager, who is onp of thp promoters. Another proniotor or proorietor assays a sample Qf tho supposed tin oro, and furnislies a'report and an analysis, which, to any one un acquainted with-tho subject, may Icofc a formidable affair, but which is in reality nothing more nor less than a hollow sham doctored up so as to mako a total of ICO, In tho report of Mr Lockhart, who, I pre sume, is another proprietor in the ven turo, ho says ho brought fivo bags of sand taken from various depths,' and samples of each wore handed to Mr John ston for analysis, but in that gentleman's report ho does not tell us which eample:ho took, or whether ho mixed the contents of all tho bags together and then analysed a portien. Tho sand is in a fino stato of division, and is, in my opinion, nothing more nor less than ordinary sand mixed with n little titanic iron sand, which in experienced miners and others are constantly mistaking for tin
