A contract had been entered into with on Auckland firm for making cart ridges, and it had beon provided that when Now Zealand mado gunpowder come up to tho standard it was to be used.

MORNING SITTING.

Mr Macandkkw's motion, that tho Stand ing Orders Committco report bo taken into consideration at 730 to-night, was mot by an amendment by Sir George G key thnt it bo considored on Tuesday next.

Mr Pykjs soconded tho amondment, urging thut indocont hasto had been shown in dealing with Mr Macandrow's motion, which ho characl ised as a very good joke. If the proposed reform woro carried into effect, it would bo found that its pro visions wore unbusinesslike, unworkable, and uttorly absurd.

Mr Stout asked tho Houee to agree to Mr Macandrow's motion, pointing out that it was only a sessional order, and could at any tiino bo changed by a majority of tho Houso. Ho accused Mr Pyko a»d Sir Geo. Grey of dosiring to sholvo tho whole matter. Sir Geo. Gret donied n dosire to shelve it, but thought wrong was being done, Tho Houso divided on the question that the report bo considered at 7.30 this even ing, which was carried by 43 to 28. Advances to Sottlcra. Mr Macandrew moved : -That standing ordor No. 178 bo suspended, in order to consider the following motion:—"That a eolect committoo bo appointed to consider nnd roport as to how far it is expedient that tho credit of tho colony should bo applied towards making advances at a low rate of' interest to settlers on tho seourity of their land, and also as to tho best mode in which such credit may be so applied, tho Committee to have power to call for papers and porsons, and to confer with any committee of the Legislative Council that may bo appointed with a similar object, the Committee to consist of Messrs Dargavillo, Smith, Bruce, Holmes, Sir Julius Vogel, Messrs Walker, J. B. Whyte, Beva'n, Cowan, aud the mover, five to form a quorum, and to report in three weeks. He said he had held strong opinions for years past in the direction of the motion proposed, and ho had hoped the matter would have been brought forward by tho Government of the day. He recognised that by intimation of this matter a question of groat magnitude was raised, and one on which tho solution of the future of tho country doponded. Under tho existing stato of things no man dependent on pastoral occupation could carry it on with profit unless his landlord was con fined exclusively to tho employment of himself and family, or he had got the whole of the necessary capital re quired to carry on his business belonging to himself. In the southern portion of the colony the matter was occupying the atten tion of thoughtful men, and it would soon como to be a deep burning question. Sir Geo. Grey thought Mr Macandrew was dosorving of the thanks of tho whole oolony for bringing the matter forward, and though his namo was not on the Com mittee he would do all he could to aid in aiming at tho object proposed. Mr Garrick said that where property was mortgaged it could not now sell for the amount advanced on it.

Mr Bruce said that the complaint of the last speaker must bo a local one. The speaker denied emphatically that in the district ho had the honour to represent there was any difficulty in getting property sold for its real value. Latterly there had been a disposition to set town against oountry, but the present resolution was in the direc of benefiting the producer, though initiated, from the town members, It was, in fact, in unison with the philanthropic character which the hon. member for Port Chalmers had always borne in that House. Mr Wakefield and Dr. Newman thought the proposal was wholly impracticable as a financial scheme. Tho motion was carried. Tho interrupted debate on Mr Fisher's motion as to placing a sum of £2,000 on the estimates.for the purpose of putting Wel lington reclaimed land streets in a state of rapair was again talked out—members, with that object, discussing the motion preceding it till dinner adjournment arrived. EVENINGSITTING. On the House resuming for the evening sitting, Mr Macandrew moved, without c immont, " That this Houso does concur n the roport of the Standing Orders Com mittee re morning sittings'of tho House."

Mr J. C. Bookland entered his pro test against the resolution. It was only out of compliment to tho high position that the member for Port Chalmers held iv the House, nnd the lengthy timo ho had boon thorp, that tho movement had met with encouragement. (Mr Macandrew : No). He could assure that gentloman that members had stated to him that they could hardly sco their way %o oppose tho measure on which be had set his heart so much, and that reason alone had induced them to give tho matter an experimental trial. It was not from any spirit of obstruction, but from a desire to see the session shorter, that he'f. the speaker) objected to the motion, as members would be deprivod of tho opportunity of interview ing Ministers with tho "view of urging the grievances of their various districts. He moved, as an amendment, that the clauses of the report be considered seriatim.

Mr Levebtam seconded thre_ amendment, as ho was of opinion that it would be .extremely unfair to ask members to pass the report holus bolus without giving them time to consider it.

Mr O'Connor said that with many others ho had been induced to support the mem ber for Port Chalmers on the understanding that the hours of labour were to be limited and business conducted in a reasonable way, so that members might be enabled to bring that mature amount of intelligence to bear on the businesd Which it properly demanded. In the report, as drawn up, this was not ths case, the hours of labour not being limited; and he felt inclined to move that tbe House rise not later than 8 p.m. Mr Bevan objected to experimental or hasty legislation, and^xpressed the belief that if there was less pairing, more practi -0 _il legislation would tesult-, Mr Pykb, in the couriie of a highly humourous speech, condemned what he characterised as a vicious system being in-' troduced on the score of tho health of mem bers. He appealed to the hon. member for Port Chalmers not to press his motion. Personally, he objected to being deprived of the opportunity of recruiting in the balmy atmrsphere of Wellington. " Why, sir," he went on to say, "with tho im pure atmosphere of this House wo kill on an average four members a year, and even the Premier last year got the gout. If a robust member like that becomes afflicted with that disease from sitting in this House, what about a small person like me 1" On tho original question being put, it was carried by 42 to 32. Sir George Grey was of opinion that none of the petitions presented would now receive proper attention or consideration. It was almost an unknown circumstance that a question of so momentous importance should bo proposed one night and forced through the House on tbe next, without members knowing what the change really meant. He was convinced that the mean ! ing of this indecent haste was that the pro moters of the change knew that with a few days' consideration members and the peoplo throughout the colony would never assent to the proposal. Those people who bad come for redress and to have their wrongs righted would now bo delayed in Wellington for Borne time at consider able expense. It wus but just that the change should not come into operation till the beginning of next seeeion. Otherwise thoymight be ruined by unduly hasty conclusions being come to by the House. He was satisfied that if the matter were delayed for a week, members would bo inundated with telegrams from their constituencies, praying for the continuance of the present hour of meeting. He pro tested against the conduct of those who wore compelling him to vote before he bad time to consider the effect of the recom mendations from the Standing Orders Committee.

Mr Stout said that so far as tho Govern] ment were concerned, it would be apparent to all parts of the House that the change would mean the imposition of additional work on them, so that in supporting the measure he was not doing so with the view of shirking his duty as a member of tho Ministry. (Hear.) Hie sole reasonforsupport ing tbe motion was that he was satisfied he could not undertake tho work under the present system which was imposed on them last session. • . Mr Fergus said the Premier's speech had incontestably proved to him that some consideration was required for the already overtaxed Ministry instead of damaging their health by increasing their labours. Mr Eeddon moved the previous question, as ho recognised in thoir support to tho proposal a desire by Ministers not to be interviewed by members. Like the mem ber for Port Chalmers, they wanted peace and quietness. Mr Fisbek said the proposition was quite impracticable. It was a high compliment to tho member for Port Chalmers that the measure had met with so much support, and the speaker was convinced that bad any other mamber introduced it, it would have been disposed of in about ten minutes. Mr Brown suggested that with the view of expediting business, members be not al lowed to speak longer than twenty minutes, except where tbe debates wore on questions concerning the fate of the Ministry.

Mr Joyce, an old journalist, came to the rescue of tho Press Gallery, who would practically havo no time under the new ar rangement. Ho very aptly remarked that they would have no time to take any rest at all.

Hoveral other members spoke beforo the division boll was rung. On a division being taken, to the astonishment of the House, the Speaker announced a tie : - Ayes, 35 ; noes, 35 ; ho added that as the House seemed to be puzzled what to do in tbe matter, ho thought be ought to allow another division to be taken. Therefore, he would re cord his vote with the " ayes " in order that another division might be taken, the .rule of the H«ueo providing that in case of a second division being taken there should be no intervening debates. The doors wero merely opened and re closed, and the result of the second division was: Ayes, 33 ; noes, 37. The previous question was therefore carried, and Mr Macandrow's celebrated motion, after being twice affirmed by a majority and then "tied," was thus eventually lost.

Enforcement of Judgments. Sir George Grey obtained leave to post pone the second reading of the Enforce ment of Judgments Bili. Employment of Barmaids. Tho second reading of the employment of Females and Others Act Amend ment passed with scarcely any dis cussion. Mr J. C. Buokland announced that it was his intention in Committee to endeavour to secure an amendment to sweep away the employment of barmaids alto gether. Second Readings.

Mr Darcaville's Banknote Securing Bill also passed its second reading without dis cussion. Tho Minos Act Amendment was also read a second time. The House adjourned at 10.25 p.m.

TONGA.

Wcsloynn Secession.

(FKOM A CORRESPONDENT.)

Tonga, June 14. Your readers will be almost tired of read ing about the Wesleyan secession, but yot we must continue to write about it, for it is still tho all-engrossing theme down hero. The Wesleyan Free Church is increasing in numbers every day, and during the last few weeks has made rapid strides. " One whole island has turned over since last we wrote, namely that of Ninafoon, an island which has contributed more to missions than any island in tho South Seas. In Tongatabu, since the deputation was here, many have turned ovor. Tho Free Churoh now numbers in the Group tome 17,000 members, and report says tho Samoans are following suit, and that tho Free Churoh has been established in their midst. Royal Marriages. The brother of the late Crown Prince, who was up in Auokland some time ago, has been married to one of the highest chief girls here, and great rejoicings have conse quently been the ordor of the day at Vavau, where he is residing with the King. - Improvements. Our long-talked-of tramway is being laid down along the Government Wharf, and is to be extended along the beach. The Premier has also given orders to have a channel cut in the reef alongside the wharf, so that tho vessels can load and unloail at any state of tho tide, the punts and scows coming alongside the wharf at low and high water. We hear aleo we are to have a derrick and weighbridge and other sun dry improvements. The buoys which were carried away Bomo time ago by heavy Weather are' to be laid down again, and a beacon is to bo put on the rock in the eastern passage. The town has boen cleaned and put in order for tho expected arrival of the King, and looks very clean and nice.

Tho new house of the minister of the Free Church is almost finished, and is a very presentable building. Native Fostlval. The ground has been cleared for the temporary building in which the native festival is to be held, and report says it will be the largest building that has ever been built in Tonga. Most of the natives from Haapai and Vavau are coming over to the festival, the ostensible reason being to raise money to purchase a memorial statue of His Majesty King George, for which the Government intend to send to Italy, and which will cost some thousand pounds and more.

Benefactors.-" When a board of eminent physicians and ohomists announced the dis coyery that by combining some well-known valuable remedies a most wonderful medicine was produced, whioh would cure sucb a wide range of diseases that most all othei remedies could be dispensed with, many were Bceptloal, but proof of its merits by aotual trial has dispelled all doubt and to-day the dtscov grew of that great medicine. Hop Bitters, are honoured and blessed by all oa benefaotora/
