REDUCTION OF THE ARMED CONSTABULARY.

(Br TELEGRAPH. — PARLIAMENTARY

REPORTER.)

Garrisons for tho Forts.

Wellington, this day. Whatever may be said of tho genoral policy of tho Government, Mr Ballanco's management of the Taranaki nutivo diffi culty has been unquestionably statesman like. From Pukeroaho to Opunake, a dis tance of 50 miles, a region once tho dark and bloody ground of the colony, thore aro now 70 Constabulary, and these include the garrison at I'akcaruko. I understand thaithissmall forcowill gradually be reduced and the reduction will include the total withdrawal of tho garrison at Pukcaruko, tho nearest port to aggressive Mnoridom. While theso reductions ara being made, Mr Ballanco will continue the " ono-policaman " policy, and he pays that in nino months tho Armed Constabulary, so far as a dofonce against nativo a^gre?sion is concerned, will bo abolished. Tour hundred men only will bo retained, nnd thefo will be converted into tho garrifons for tho four principal ports. It is intended to find places for aa many of tho discharged A.C. men in tho Civil police as poepible, or in other occupa tionsunder the Government, while, as oppor tuDityoffers.theofficerswill be placedin posi tions undor the Government. Mr Ballance informs mo that thero is not a vo»tigo of trouble at Parihaka now. This morning hehas boen conferring with Inspector Pardy, whom ho specially sent for, and the result of conference will probably be that othor Armed Constabulary men will bo replaced by policemen. Mr Ballanca is personally disposed to giving married policemen an allowanco for rent, but foars it is too late this session to do anything in tho mattor.

OPERA HOUSE.-"Uncle Zac."

Theiib was a good gathering at tho Opera Houeo last evening to witness tho repeti tion of the amusing spectacular drama, " Uncle Zac," As on former occasions, tho audienco woro kopt in roars of laughter at the absurd drollories and mistake' of Undo Zac (Mr Leitch), who was ropantedly called before the curtain. This drama will be repeated this evening, and on Saturday will be produced a new pi«ce, entitled, " Queen's Evidence," the scenery of which ia said to bo very effective. In deference to frequent and numerous requests for tho reproduction nf " Rithors t« Grind," Messrs MacMahon and Leitch havo resolved to give a farewell performance of it to morrow. Those.who havo not yet seen it, and who wish to do so, have thus another chance offered them. The play is well mounted, and is capitally played.

The shareholders of the Hauraki G.M. Co. today confirmed a resolution accepting tho offer of the Ivanhoe Co. to purchase their battery, water right, and machine »ite, tha consideration being 2,610 shares in their company.

Constable Kelly, who haß Eorved a num ber of years in tho Auckland District with great credit, has boen transferred from Katikati to Pungarohu, Taranaki. Ho has been succeeded by Constable Cahill.
