fBV TELEGKAI'H—PKKSS ASSOCIATION.)

Wemjkcjton, Wednesday. On the case being resumed at half-past £, Alice Gillanto, barmaid At the Koyal Hotel, deposed thftt on August % t the day after the assauiton Muir, accused camo into the hotol, and feeing some camollias on tho parlour tablo, ho asked hor for ono> and re marked at the t>i« that! ho had got a h'no lot 5-t Mr Uuckloy's garden tho previous night. Sho was sure of tJie date, becauso it was tho day beforo the Cavalry ball, and as sho intended to bo present the camellias, had boen given her for that pur pose Was onco in tho employ of Mr H. S. Fitzherbert, and might have had a con versation with him ro tho assault, but never had any with Muir. Jamos Smith, proprietor of tho Post otiico Hotel, was recalled, and said McClel land was like a man who camo to his hotel on tho night cf the 19th August with Walden, but ho could not swear to hia identity. Thin closed tho caso for tho prosecution,

Mr Stafford nskod the magistrate to dis miss tho information, us there was nothing by which to connect Waldon with tho out rage. Tho case seemed Olio oi porsecution. There was no Corroborative evidence to support Mttiv's atatoment that ho was tarred sit all. As to tho identity of tho ac cused with tho perpetrator of the assault, therewas no evidence whatever. McClelland had been called ,'is presumably .an aider and abettor In tho alleged enso, Imt had proved rioth'ing. Ho proceeded to review tho ovi 'dene1-' adduced, and claimed the bonefit of fchy uoubt as to his idonlity for tho accused. It would Hecm as if tho prosecution thought that Waldon was only tho scapegoat for porno other person, and that they were pressing it on th;it account. AH tho evidence to provo that tho accused was nfc the Hutt at all failed. Tho only evidence was Mttir's, and ho only fixed upon hi*v\ because the accused was formerly a mosfc'shger of Mr Buckley. As to tho ha idc'i'fib, there v.as no ovidi n'ce to s'.lcw that Muir was hand cuffed. Mo submitted that, tho.ro was not a tittle o! eVidonco to connect the ac 'cns'id with tho alleged assault, llomi^ht bo ablo to show tkut a little tarrfng would not, hurt Ministers Perhaps Ministers deserved it. Tarring was a common punish merit for a variety of ofl'enees in America, and though lio did not justify it, thePowero many offences boyond tlio foneh of tho law which, pgrhapp, tarring was a Tory good punishment Tor. tfe concluded by cub mitkitig W^a.t no caso had boen mado out V/'hioh would jimtify Hie Worship in sending '•hp.C'iso to a jury. Mr Wardoll, R.M., said tho evidence had disclosed a oaso which ho thought it was hit) duty to send for trial. 110 had, in do ciding tills caso, removed from his mind all otl'octs from what was termed ouUido feel ing. Ho did not agreo that it was a cato oif porsecution, and thought that the ovidenco had been confined strictly to Inattor for the consideration of the Court. What evidence thoro v/ds against the accused was tho accumulation of small mattors, which by theiiwalvea woro of littlo valuo, but in tho aggregate disclosed a caso which ho was justified in sending to a jury. Accmed reserved hie defence, and wae committed to stand his trial at tho next sitting of tho Supremo Court. Hail v.-as allowed, himself in JC'JOO, and two sureties in £100 each. Tho accused obtained bail.

WHANGAREI COAL COMPANY.

At the annual meeting of the VVhangarei Coal Company, tho report and balance sheet published in our last issue were road by the Secretary, jUj- J, Hanna, the follow ing boing an additiou : -"Tho mine is in thorough good ordor, and tho coal continues to tnatntfitn Its high character, tho soum bcilig rf an avcrago thickness of 10 feot, and having been proved to he without break or fault over tho very extensive aroa which h now thoroughly opened out. It wa? considered that tlio Company would be in a position to soil coal in largo quantities at such a low prico as, combined with the excollont quality, would undoubtedly placo it in tho first rank amongst our local coal."

Tho Chairman, Mr D. J. McLeod, in moving tho adoption of the report, ssid that it was unnecessary for him to mako any lengthy remarks, the fullest information having been nlrenrly given in tlio annual report and in other reports. It would be *een from a rough balance-sheet prepared for tho private information of shareholders that tho mine was opened on tho 15th August. .Shareholders' would, no doubt, bo surprised at the time taken in the construction of tho lino, but lie could nesuro thorn that tho directors did thoir utmost to push forward the work Tho railway was constructed to thoir satisfaction, and the mine was now in good working order. Ho congratulated tho shareholders on having a man like Mr Lowe as manager at tho mine Be had made Tory good) progress in every respect. .Ho hud ojioi ed from north to south a face of coal 2.1 miles in length, and from south to eu*t another 2£ miles, making a total of 4A milcf. On tho \rholo ho had only taken out one twelfth of tho coal, which onabled tho Company to save tho usual oxponses of timbering. Tho directors, he could pay, had given orory attention to tho in terests of the Company. He concluded by congratulating tho shareholders on tho condition of tho mine, which for a prolit producing mine ho believed would bo second to none in the colony.

Mr W. Wilson seconded tho motion. which was put and carried.

Captain A. McGregor, Messrs F. Jaggor and Graves Aiokin were ro-olcctod direc tors, and Mr Mitcholl was appointed auditor.

This conducted tho business

THE STAMP ACT.

Inn following aro tho principal provisions cf the Stamp Amendment Act, which came into force on the JSth instant:—Tho duty on conveyances on salo is raited to 15a per cent, on tho consideration, while deeds of gift are made liablo to a duty of 15 por cent, on the Proporty Tax valuo. The 10 por cent, duty on alionation of native lands is chargeable on tho value instead of on the consideration, wkile a deed of gift from a native to a person other than a native is also made liable to native land duty. The agent ofa Foreign Insurance Company carrying on business in Mew Zealand bo longer escapes from the payment of tho annual license tea of £200 paid by colonial companies. An annual license tee of £200 is imposed on foreign companies carrying on business in New Zonland and haviDg a capital of lees than £400,000. A penalty of £260 is imposed for not stating all necessary particulars in policies of pea insurance. Where land is aold together with tho live stock or stock ■in - trade thereon, ad valorem duty is payable on the whole consideration for tho salo, even though only the land b» included in tho instrument conveying the property. There are other minor alterations. For instance, Section 3 of tho Act provides in effect that where there arc two instruments for effecting a sale of proporty, and ad valorem duty is paid on one, a iuty of 10s is to bo Charged on tho other. Soction 4 raises tho penalty for not i stamping certain deods within a month to 20 por cent. Section (i provides that where several persons join in an affidavit or declaration, a duty of 2s 6d is payable for each person so joining. Any porson who, with intent to defraud, executes or prepares an instrument without setting forth therein all tho facts necessary for the assessment of duty, isliablotoaheavy penalty, The chief provisions of "The L)ecea«od Persons Estates Duties Act," which came into force on the 11th inst., are those im posing heavier succession duties, ranging from 2| up to 13 por cent, upon tho estates of deceased persons, and also upon the proporty comprised in deeds of gift. These latter aro in addition to tho stamp duties upon deeds of gift. All property, however, going absolutely to hus band or wife, either by deed or will, or on intestacy, ie exorapt from succession duty and only half duty is chargeable upon prop erty passing to children or grand children, including stop-children. For administering property without taking out probate or letters of administration persons may render themselves liable to a penalty of five hundred pounds in addition to the duties. Settlements and deeds of gift are to be registered within two monthß ab the Stamp Office, and as trustees and beneficiaries aro mado liablo to penalties of ten pounds a day for every day tho deeds are unregistered after tho two mouths, they should present thorn for aisessment and registration to Mr Hall, the Deputy ommissioner of Stamps, in High-street, "■ ''olay

S[EW ZEALAND FROZEN MEAT & STORAGE COMPANY, LIMITED. CAPITAL, £200,000; GALLED UP, £100,000. DIRECTORS : A. Bull, Esq. D. L. Murdoch, Esq. J. Banks, Esq. L. D. Nathak, Esq. P. Comiskey, Esq. Hon. J. Williamson. Sib F. Whitakbk, X C.M.G. The Company begs to notify to the public that the works at Auckland and tho Waitara have now beon oomplotod, and constitute the moat extensive Meat-preserving and freez ing Works in Now Zealand. WHOLESALE MEAT MARKET AND SHIPPING DEPOT la now opon at the Company'b Worka at tho Railway Wharf, where Town and Country orders will be attended to with tho utmost promptness and despatch. Tho Company can refer with confidenco to tho superior quality ef its Pbimh Meat, as selected for the market from large quantities of first-class West Coast stook, dealt with at the Company's Works, Waitara. SALT BEEF. Special attention is directed to tho Company's brand in tbis line, which, with the faci lities afforded by the cold-air process, can be oared in mild pickle, and the necessity ot cutting up in Bmall pieces obviated. Ab contractors for H.M. Na"fy, hero and in Sydney, large stocks are kept on hand. BACON-CURING. The Cooling Chambers for Bacon-curing at the Company's Works in Auckland are now so far advanced that this New Industry linn been commenoed, and choice Hams anj Bacon can be offered cured on the most modern principle. Particular attentidh will be paid to the selection of Pigs for this usk, and on no account will any except Daiby ob Corn Fed Pigs be purchased, as it is purposed to build up a reputation for an Aucklanc Ham and Bacon Factory. MEAT-PRESERVING. Thta branch is equal to an output of 120,0001b5. per diem, and the Comoanv has tho greatest confidence in recommending its J PRESERVED MEATS As superior to anything of the kind heretofore offered to the public. Tho Company would specially oall attention to the fact that the COMPRESSED CANNED BEEF AND MUTTON, PACKED IN THIS SQOABE CAN (The right to which is patented), is the first sample from any part of the world that haa been able to compote successfully in the London Market with the beat Chicago brands. Hitherto the Colonial meats packed in the round cans, although called compressed meats were only saleable in the English markets, where a low price was the first consideration* but meats of the New Zealand Packing Company, submitted in competition for Admir alty supplies at Deptford Dockyard, were awarded the highest commendation and placed on the register of accepted brands. ' Tho following extract from the letter of the Company's Agents in London, tho Now Zealand Loan and Mercantile) Agoncy Company (Limited), is referred to, who write as follows : — " We have the pleasure to hand you herewith an extract from a letter receiwd from the War Office, Army Department :—" Samples ot tho. Peach Brand of the NowTOeuland Puckhitr fir submitted by you, have been tested and proved, and ilio Brand will bo added to tho Selected List of the Department." This now entitling you to tho privilege o( comp ting, we therefore tendored on your behalf at flOa 3d per 1121b; and to-day woro gratified to hear that the offer had been accented notwithstanding that it was 9d per cwt. higher than the leading American brands, ehowlnn that the quality was fully appreciated." B Consequent upon the temporary stoppage of production during tho transfer of the Company's Meat-preserving Works from Auckland te Waitara, and owing to the faot that the reserve which had been relied upon to meet current demands was taken by the New South Wales Government for the Soudan expedition, the Company has been unable to comply with numerous demands from customers, but are now prepared to execute with promptitude all orders with which they may be favoured. WHOLESALE BUTTER DEPOT. The Company ia about to open a large Wholesale Butter Depot at their Freezing Works, Railway Wharf. Cooling Chambers and the necessary plant are now being prepared. Id is anticipated that with the appliances, cold-air chambers, and facilities for dealing with the ever-increasing surplus, the Company will be able to offer a regular and satisfactory market for Dairy Produce The Company's Managers of this branch aio cash purchasers of Prime Butter and Fresh JBggs. Communications may at onco bo androssed to them. Tho utmost care will be taken in the selection of Butter for table use. This will be made up fresh every morning. As early as possible, wholesale orders of Butter will be delivered in refrigerated carts, so that retailors will be able to obtain a day's supply each morning, and householders, by insisting upon being supplied with the Company s Brands of Butter, will obtain a table delicacy throughout the year. Tho department will be under the management of Messrs Glanville and Ellyett, whose Butter Business is being taken over by the Company. ACID AND MANURE WORKS. The Directors being very desirous o| satisfying the public as to the genuineness of their Manures, have requested Prof. Brown, of tho Auckland University, to act as their Analyist, and he has agreed to certify to the Analysis of the Superphosphates. The Company will defray the cost of any Analysis of Manures purchased direct from them and duly sampled, the result of which may be proved to fall below the guaranteed standard, and also allow 4s 6d per ton per unit for the deficiency. Samples and further information may be obtained at the Works, Otahuhu, or at the Office, Railway Wharf. STORING. Tdo Company is now prepared to enter into arrangements for storing General Mkki > \vdise, etc., at current rates. The Storks have a line of rail running through the building to the end of the Rail way Wharf, so that all cartage, either by roil or vessel, is avoided. All goods stored are adecl and unloaded under cover, hydraulic lift and ether appliances being available,
