THE WESLEYAN CONFERENCE.

■♦ (bt telegraph.—own correspondent.) Dunedht, this day. Thb doings of the Conference yesterday mainly consisted of the reception Into full connection of Messrs Parsonson, Slade, Pinfold, and Griffin. They had to pass a stiff oral examination by the Preside!)'; and ministers. The question was asked i " Did they smoke ?" Some admitted their fondness for the weed. A regular burst of indignation ensued, for tho reason that the President did not seem to be too hard upon the guilty smokers. In answer to a question from Elder Lyminster, as to why the young brother smoked, he said, among other reasons, because he liked It. Tho Roy. Mr Morley said that men should not be found talking about temporance when they were sympa thisers with tobacco. After various views upon the subject it was thought a quiet admonition from tho chair might be salu tary. It should be Rev Mr Barley and not Mr White, who comes over from the other Methodist Church to the Wesleyan. Both Revs. Ward and Barley are accepted.

THE WARING TAYLOR FRAUDS.

(BT (TEtEGKAFH.— PRESS ASSOCIATION.) Wellington, this day. At the Supreme Court yesterday, W. Waring Taylor was indicted, under the Lar ceny Act, on a charge of having converted to his own use, with intent to defraud, the sum of £700 which hod been entrusted to him by James May for investment on first class security on the 10th September, 1881. R. W. Kango, agent for the Bank of New Zealand at Kaiapoi, said in September, 1881, ho was employed at/ the Wel lington branch of the BanKv At that time the prisoner drew £700 \>n account of the September dividond for invest ment on account of Mr May. W. H. Lerin, merchant, of Wellington, said that in 1881 he was acting for Mr Lloyd, of Bir mingham. Prisoner had paid him sums of money from time to time until ho had liquidated his debt to Mr Lloyd. On the 10th September of the year named, after bank hours, prisoner paid witness £1,000 in reduction of that debt. The sum was nmdo up of a cheque for £300, and £700 in notes. This closed the enso for the prosecution. Mr Shaw, for the defence, asked Hie Honor to rule that the pose was not within the stat ute on the evidence as to the direction in writing to the prisoner how to apply the money. Mr May was never in possession of this money, and therefore how could he be said to have entrusted it to tho prisoner. Where a man received money from a third person for investment, and mis appropriated it, he could not be proceeded against under the present section of the Larceny Aot, whatever might be the cose with regard to any other section. His Honor ruled that the case must go to the jury. Mr Shaw asked His Honor to direct the jury that pursuant to the direction of Mr May to the prisoner to invest the money in first-class security, it was open to the prisoner to invest it in his own business.— Hin Honor said that he should, of course, tell the Jury that first-class securities were within the prisoner's own discretion. No ovidence was adduced for the defence. After a short absenoe the jury returned a verdict of guilty.

MINING NEWS.

COROMANDEL. RorAL Oak.—Tho mine manager re ports :~-"S6 far as gold is concerned, the prospects of the Oak level has not improved, but there is a considerable change in the size of the reef. It has been increasing its width until it is now sbqnt 4ft. thick, with an easier run of country on the hanging wall side. Tho reef at present is too big to expect much from it, but it is a change for he better, as it may improve when it narrows." Tokatba.—The mine manager reports a great change in tho No. 7 level, which, he believes, will, in a few days, bring the main reef to hand. They were nearly through the clay casing on Saturday night, but did not know it was backing up tons of water. Yesterday morning they entered the level to see how matters stood, and found a large body of water flowing down the drive which had run the end for about ten feet and about the same in height. He believes when the latter is cleared the main reef will be found.'either just behind it or a short distance ahead of it..

Wonders of the Age. Why is it bo many people are never satisfied J lhoir homes are marvels of comfort and luxury, friends are generouß and affectionate: they are educated and refined, capable, not only of enjoying, but of imparting happiness to others; yet they are dissatisfied, miserable, and, really without intending to do so, make others miserable. Their blood is impure, they have taken a heavy coid, or they are bilious. A few doses of Emii Frcso's Hamburg Tea would remove all obstructions, and enable them to enjoy, with renewed zest, the pleasures they are now compelled to forego. The Symptoms Entirely Dis appeared. . „„,„ ' ■ .. Sydney, February 13,1884, DEAR Sir.—About a month ago I was advised to use your Hamburg Tea for a severe attack of indigestion from whioh I was suffering. For some timo previously I had been afflicted with pains in the liver and stomach, and constant headache and oppression. Since taking Che Hamburg Tea theßo symptoms have entirely disappeared, and I have never since been troubled with them. I have every confidence in recommending it, and have witnessed its use in other cases with Hko result.—Yours faithfully Jambs S, Donovan. HAMBURG TEA HAMBURG TEA HAMBURG TEA Has no equal in tlio whole range of the Phar macopoeia as an Anti-Scorbutic, Alterative Carminative and Blood Purifier, and the in! creasing demand for it in theso colonies and everywhere else it has been introduced is truly astonishing.
