RODNEY COUNTY COUNCIL

A Lively Mooting.

A meeting of tho Rodney County Council was held on Saturday in tho Council Offico, Warkworth. Present :-N. Wilson (chairman), J. Shepherd, Farrand, Moor, Hudson, Gardener, Jaekman, Cruick shank and Scholium. The meeting lasted from 10 a.m. until midnight, the Chair man remarking that it was the longest meeting, save one, ever held by this Coun-

oil. After the minutes of the previous meet ing had been read, Mr Cruickshank pro posed a resolution, "That a return be pre pared showing the amount of money ex ponded on roads in each riding during the paßt eight years, and that a separate ac count bo kept of the cost of work done in oacb riding/ The Chairman said he could see no good likely to result if the motion was carried, and therefore ho must oppose it. Mr Shepherd eaid it would show on which sido of the county the money had been spent. After considerable discussion the motion was carried. For (5): Shepherd, Cruick shank, Gardener, Farrand and Jaekman, against (4) : Wilson, Moor, Hudson, Scholium. A largo number of tenders for road work from Warkworth to Puhoi, and Warkworth to Kaipara Flats,were opened and disposed of. Tenders for contracts Nos. 24 and 33 woro not opened, in consequence of one or two parties not having complied with cer tain conditions. The Chairman said the Council would decline to commence work on any road until all legal difficulties were removed. On the question of appointing a dog tax collector, Mr. Jaekman strongly objected to settlors being compelled to pay for keep ing a dog, while the Maoris weio allowed to keep a large number of mongrel curs running about. Constable Ingor had inti mated to the Council that he intended to seize the Maori dogs running about without collars.

Mr Gardener thought the doge were more likely to seize Constable Inger's collar. He (Mr Gardener) would give £10 if the constable would catch all the Maori dogs. It was loft with tho Chairman to make tho appointment.

The Road to Paradise. It appoared that at the previous meeting of the Council a sum of £14,000 had been allocated to the several ridings according to a schedulo drawn up by tho Chairman. A very strong feoling had been expressed on the west aide of tho county against the action of tho Council.

Mr Farrand, member for Mangawai Riding, presented a petition signed by 79 ratepayers. The petitioners state that they consider it unwise and inexpedient to appro priate two years' entire revenue on works suggested by the Chairman without affording the ratepayers an oppor tunity of expressing any opinion. Mr Farrand endorsed all that the peti tioners said, and spoke strongly in favour of granting what was asked. The money (£14,000) had been voted without due con sideration, and the Tauhoa, Albert, and Mangawai Hidings had been treated un fairly. Mr Hudson denied that this business was hurried, and said no member objected to the schedule at last meeting. Mr Farrand : I did strongly. Mr Moor thought it was well considered, and the Council would look like little chil dren to undo what was done at the previous meeting. Mr Shepherd said he had had several years' experience as a member of the Pro vincial Council, and he never know of £H,OOO being voted arf was done by the Rodney Council at its last meeting. No doubt the Chairman believed he was doing what wns right; but to bring before the Council a proposal to sjDend so large a sum of money without giving time to c«nsidor the matter was unwise and most improper. The Chairman was a person of much sympathy, and ho thought the way to Paradiso was through Wark worth. The Chairman : It appeared as if my friend the mombdr for Tauhoa (Mr Gardener) considered the West Coast road the road to Paradise. Why did not mem bers object to the proposed expenditure at last meeting? Mr Shepherd : I objected to the schedule, and also to the way in which it was hurried. I stated that it was proposed tj spend £10,000 within 10 miles of Warkworth. Mr Jackman: I think wo were misled, as it was thought we were voting only_ one year's rates. Still no good will result in re considering the matter. Mr Moor : Albert and Mangawaißidings are represented by two of the cleverest members of the Council, and thereforo not likely to be misled. Chairman : Well, gentlemen, this is a strange {ieee of business. Until this night I hud a similar opinion of the members for Albert and Mangawai. The land at To Arai and Mangawai is not worth making a road through it. [t would be a God-send if the sand at Mangawai was to bury the greater part of the land bo had seen. He did not care tor indignation meetings. Mr Gardener could not understand the Chairman's remarks relative to roads on the eastern and western sides of the county. His remarks about the water shed of the country was nonsense. Mr Farrand did not attend any indigna tion meetings; but ho knew there was great dissatisfaction expressed at the Chairman's schedule of works.

Mr Gardener thought the Chairman's language harsh as compared with the re marks of Messrs Farrand and Shepherd. Those two moinbors had spoken in a gentlemanly manner. Motion to re-consider the proposed schedulo was negatived, For: Shepherd, Gardener, Farrand. Against: Wilson, Moor, Hudson, Jackman, Cruickshank, and Scholium.

OTAHUHU PUBLIC SCHOOL.

rrcsontatlon of Prizes.

A tkry interesting eoremony took place at 6 on p.m. Thursday, when prizes were given to the children for regular attendance. The Committee were anxious to give prizes {or good conduct, but the record of good murks having by some moans become non est, it was decided to give the prizes for best attendance. Mr John Gordon (Chairman), Roy. F. Gould, and W. R. Wills repre sented the Committeo, and a very large number of ladies and gentlemen were pre- Bout. Miss Burns led the children in sing ing, a fow songa boing very well rendered, Mr Gordon, in giving the prizos, mado a few encouraging remarks to each of the children, and said he trusted parents would try and send their children more regu larly to school, aB the onus of non-success in many cases rested with the parents, and not with the children or the teachers. Mr Luke, Chairman of the Auckland Education Board, saidhe was pleased to see so many parents present, and he would like to impress upon the scholars the import ance of thoroughness in their stidics, and that the best education is that which is the answer to our own inquiries. Remember, there must be time to grow. " The oak springs up from -an acorn, but does not become a tree all at once ; the mushroom springs up in a night, but it is but a mush room. He reminded them that education does not end in the school-room; that there is no such thing as' a finished education in' this iife, but always something beautiful and true to learn. He'urged them to culti vate a love of knowledge for its own sake, not merely for the sake at obtaining prizes, passing standards, or winning scholarships, but to seek wisdom for itself alone, and those who did this would receive the greatest reward. He trusted the high moral tone which existed in the Otihuhu public schools would influence^their whole lives, and if ever they should be tempted to swerve from the path of honour or virtue, tore member that they were educated in the Otahuhu public schools, and exclaim: " No I we cannot do anything mean or dis honourable." Key. Mr Gould having given the parents some very good advice, the Chairman called upon the audience to sing the National Anthem, which terminated a very pleasing meeting. Testimonial to the Schoolmaster. During the meeting a very pleasing ceremony took place, the scholars and friends having subscribed a fund for the purohase of a present for the head teacher. This consisted of a very chaste silver ink stand and pen and pencil-case, which cost £10. Mr T. R. Blandford.in accepting it, spoke very feelingly of the love and esteem of the children toward him, and on the sug gestion of the Chairman three ringing cheers were given by the children, who did not fail to respond most heartily in applaud ing a gentleman who has won the respect of children and parents by his consistent and painstaking conduct to one and all alike. _^^^^

An Injury of Fourteen Years' Standing Believed. Sydney, November 21,1884.—Dear Sir,—Some H years ago I was thrown from a horse and injured my hip,:which has caused me a deal of suffering ever since, more especially if there is any sign of a chango in the weather, when at times I have been quite lame and unable to go about without the aid of a walking stick. Last week I had another attack, which was more severe than any former, and act ing on your advice, I tried St. Jacob's Oi1 and am thankful to say, with surprising reßUlta being now free from pain and can walk without suffering the intense agony I previously felt I have only used half a bottle, thus proving it to be one of the most wonderful remedies ever tried, and I can sincerely recommend the Oil to anyone suffering similarly to my own case.— Yours faithfully, C.
