PROPOSED SCHOLARSHIPS REGULATIONS.

At the meeting of the Board of Education yesterday afternoon, Professor Tucker was to have moved, "That, with a view to securing tho best possible results from the scholarships ollcrod by tho Board, tho fol lowing regulations bo adopted add come into force at the scholarships examination of tho yoar 1880 :-(l) According to tho amount' of tho funds at tha disposal of tho Board for tho purpose, thero shall bo offered in each year two kinds of scholarships, called junior and senior respectively; and tho number offered ot tho latter shall bo ono halt of the number 0* the former offered in tho samo yoar. (2) "The. junior scholarships shall be tonablo for threo yoars, and shall be open for com petition to all pupils attending primary schools, whoso age shall not oxecod 13 years and 0 months at tho timo of entering on such scholarship; and tho senior scholar ships shall be tonablo for two years and shall bu open for competition to all porsons under the ago of 1(3 years nnd 0 months at tho timo of examination. (3) Besides freo tuition at somo school ap proved by the Board, the valuo of a junior scholarship shall bo £20 per annum, and that of a senior scholarship .C-1 "> por annum, provided that in the caso of a junior scholar ship tho allownnco shall bo raised to £35 per annum if it shall havo been shown to tho satisfaction of tho Board that the scholar requires to board away from home. (4) Tho examination for junior scholarships shallbe concorncd with such subjects as, boing taught in tho primary schools, aro each year determined by tho Board; and the examination" fur senior scholarships with such subjects as, being included in the entrance examinations of the University, ore each year dotormined by tho Board." A report from the Chief Inspector of Schools upon Professor Tuckor's proposals was read. It stated that he agreed in many respects with them. He was glad to find that they recognised (1), the desirableness of those who win scholarships having gone through the primary school course, and (2), the suitableness of primary school tcaohing as a preparation for secondary. Tho best posßiblo arrangements for scholarships would bo those that enabled tho candidate to pass through the primary school course, and then give tho winnor an adequate time at tho secondary school. Theso proposals seemed to be framed with that object. Ho approved of an extension of time at the secondary schools being gained by an ex amination. There would bo little to say against the proposal to mako tho upper limit of ago 13J years if all the pupils likely to gain scholarships completed the primary school course at that age. That might como in time, but it was not so at present. As a compromise, he recommended two classes of scholarships In the primary sohools, whioh should bo, ot course, distinct from tho senior scholarships proposed to bo established in tho secondary schools. Pref. Tuckor not boinj present, and no ono having been arranged for to propose hi. resolutions, tho subject was deferred till noxt meeting. The consideration of tho report was also postponed. Prof. Aldis re marked that tho abio.t professor might have given prior intimation of his inability to bo present, as he had put himself to somo inconvenience to be present that day in the expectation that tho subject of scholarships regulations would come up for consideration.

NEW ZEALAND RIFLE ASSOCIATION.

Some days ago we mentioned in a para graph that groat dissatisfaction existed amongst tho Auckland members of the New Zealand Killo Association at the dilatori ties., of the Council of the Association in sending particulars concerning the forth coming meeting. At tho timo we wrote, even the date of the meeting was a matter of doubt, and thoro was not a single pro grammo in the city. A few days ago Cap tnin Payne of tho A Battery of Artillery was in Wellington, and ho has now in his possession a copy of tbo official programme trom which wo glean tho following particu lars :—The f ring is to commence at the Island Bay Range, Wellington, on March 6th.

WAIUKU DISTRICT PRIZE FIRING.

IN accordance with instructions from the officor commanding, Major Shophord, four teen members of the Waiuku Troop assembled fire for the distriot priros. The total amount was £7.9s lOd, which was divided into oight prizos, four being for the Ut class shot and an equal numbor for the 2nd class. Somo fair shooting was made, but taken as a whole, it would have been hotter if tho mon had had a little moro praotico. Annexed aro the scores :—

At the conclusion of tho firing, Captain Hamlin stated that he probably would, after paying ovor tho capitation, resign tho command of tho Troop. He made this announcement so that the members of the Troop should not be taken by surprise.

MINING NEWS.

(BY TELEORAPII—OWN CORBESI'ONDENT.)

COROMANDEL,

Royal Oak.—The manager reports: "No improvement in the driving of the Royal Oak main level for the last ten feet. The roof has been from 2 to 4 foot thick, and in places rather split up, with small quartz seams making in from tho hanging-wall. While the reef continues the size it is, we can Scarcely expect to find gold in the stone. The level is about 110 feet in from the crosscut, or half way to.ards the boundary, and nearly under where McNeil's party obtained the gold in the level above. Tokatka.—The mine manager reports : " During the past week the No. 7 level has not made much progress. The contractors had the drive clear of mullock, and tim bered home to the face, when the heavy flow of water brought down another 15 or 20 trucks of mullock, crushi-ig the end sets of timber and breaking all the head lathes, which took thorn till Thursday night to again Becure. The. ground for the last 40 feet is very wet, and almoßt impossible to keep up. We are now 4 feet into the solid country, which I believe is the foot wall cab of the reef, and I do not anticipate any further trouble with the ground until the lode is cut. Tributes: Very little gold has come to hand since tho holidays."

MANAIA. Blao—hobb's Claim.—This is the prospec tors' claim. A considerable amount of work has been done. Operations are now con . fined to sinking a winze from the upper to the lowor level, preparatory to taking out a good block of the leader. Thorley's claim is to the south of Blackmore's. The reef is 3ft. to 2ft. 6in., showing gold, Two drives have beon put in cutting tho reef, both showing gold. Good prospects can be ob tained from any part of tho roef, which has been traced to about two chains to the north towards Blackmore's, and three chains to the south on to tho survey line between Thorley's and Sewell's application. Thorley's are now putting in a level on the line between these two claims. Splendid water power is available close to the claims and Blackmore's for crushing machinery.

Star Claim.—Ryan is driving crosscuts from the main level, and has intersected several gold-bearing leaders. Maori Claim.—A party of Manaia natives are working with a good spirit. Macgregor's are getting a very fair show of gold in a strong body of stone.

A lot of prospecting is being done throughout this locality, and every party appears to bo on gold. It is to be hoped that investors will see that money paid into these claims is properly expended, and only used for payment of actual work done to develop the ground ; for though there ie a good show, the work of opening the ground to enable profitable returns to bo made has yet to be done, and to accomplish this work and give the district a fair trial, arrangements are being mado to dispose of interests, the whole of the proceeds to be dovoted to the required operations.

CORRESPONDENCE.

Dovonport Steam Ferry.

(To tho Editor.)

Sir,—The _>ovonport Steam Ferry Com pany have just hold their annual meeting, and despite-the complaisant remarks of the Chairman concerning the high estimation in which the service is held by tho public, thoy do not appear a vory happy family among themselves. Everyone can see that the Chairman had learned his lesson off by heart, and when the time for questioning came, the master spirit of the Company must be put forward to answer. Now, it'is well known that if Mr Stark is anything, he always professes to be exact. Will he ex plain what he meant by tho statement "that during 1834 the steamers had been running to the further wharf; in 1883, this wharf was in a state of disrepair, and the steamers did not run to it?" The facts are these: It was in the last days of July, 1883 (the night of tho 26th, I believe), that the Devonport Wharf was destroyed; and it was not until about the Ist September, 1884, that tho steamers recommenced run ning to the wharf, They thus ran for seven months in 1883, and only for four months in 1884.

For some reason or other the Company will not run their steamers to the Devon port Wharf if they can possibly help it. They have from the first, if not actually opposed its re-erection, given it the cold shoulder. Why so is not very apparent. I do not think I am far out when I say that half their traffic comes from the Devonport end, and that if they are to "keepcompe tition away," the time has arrived when every steamer should go to this wharf. Especially during the summer season is this necessary, when the great bulk of what may be called the excursion traffic wish to spend a day or half a day on Chelten ham beach. Large numbers of these may be seen at all hours laden with their provisions on their long weary walk, half tired before reaching their destination. This would be avoided by running every steamer to tho Devonport Wharf. Another matter is -worthy the attention of the directors. It was stated they are now running throe steamers; it would be well if in one or two trips' in the morning and the evening they ran steamers direct to and from Devonport Wharf without calling at Victoria. From eight to ten in the morn ing, and from four to six in the evening, the traffic is heavy, and requires relief. It took the Victoria twenty-eight minutes this morning to make tho passage from Devon port to Queon-street Wharf. At this timo of day, tho directors scarcely need to bo told that in catering for the public tbey have a rich mine to work, and that the greater facilities thoy offer for cheap and quick travel, the greater will be their suc cess and the larger their dividends.—l am. etc., John .Milne.
