NEW ZEALAND INDUSTRIAL EXHIBITION.

Confusion nt tho Openinc.

(FROM OUR SPECIAL KIiI'OKTKK )

Wei.unhtiin', this day

THE cruidi nt I lio opening of the Exhibition b.ggats all description. Fully 11,000 per sons woro packi d into tho concert room (whero tlio inaugural ci rcmony took place), which will not comfortably feat moro than 1,500. At 1.150 most of tho seats wero occu pied, including thoso in the enclosed space near tho dais, and which were reserved for Iho members of tlio Legislature and other privileged individuals. Lady Vogel arrived .shortly beforo 2 110, and was much clw.-rined to find tlio seats allotted to hcnclf and party coolly occupied by somo of tlio terribly tlioddy aristocracy of \\ .1 linglon. At'2.:io overy scat was occupied, and hundreds of persons wero standing in every availablo inch of ground, when tlio strains of " God Hiivo tho Queen" wero played uud sung i) tho 1.0 d knows how many different keys at tlio same timo, and His' Excellency, with Lady Jervois on his arm, had to crush through tlio surg ing, scdliiiig mass of humanity, tho hitum tightitm and scrub being so generally uneomfoi'lnblo that tho sight would havo delighted tho most radi cal leveller in ' tho world. It is said that Lady Jervois was alarmed at tho soothing' crowd before her, and ivhispeicd to His Excellency that sho wished to go back, tut tho Governor kopt bravely at it, and at lust inanagod to roach the Vico- Regal daY, Lady Jervois apparently being in nn almost fainting condition. Poor Mr Larnach was crushed out of tho concert room altogether, and an cntorprMng journalist (Mr (.olion), who succeeded by Herculean effort* in squeezing through tho denso crowd, took fully half-an-hour to return to his post at tho reporter's table. Seven or eight women fainted with fright, and any sudden excitement amongst the crowd might hay. led lo a terrible disaster. Tho whole affair was very badly managed, and reflects great discredit jn the Commit tee, or v hoevor is responsible. Tho Exhibition not Worth Going To. I would not* advise Auckland or Dunedin people to como at all. Tho wholo show may be dono in half a day, and nearly three fourths of tho space is taken up with woollen goods and furniture, very good in their way, but not much of an "amuse ment." 1 have forgotten to mention that tlicic is a splendid show of Auckland fruit, Mr K. Hobbs, M.H.K., being tho largest exhibitor. All the fruit comes from Auck land. Tho Colonial Tie.-isuror's Speech. The following is a report of Sir Julius N'ogol's speech, which was received too lule for insertion with His Excellency tho (lovcrnol's address, published in our Satur day's issue : — " Your Excellency,—l greatly apprcciato Iho honour pii milted me in asking you to lender your services at tlio opening of this Exhibition. 1 could havo wislud that my colleague—tho Premier—bad olliciated in my stead, but, with a generosity which characterises him, ho was kind enough to permit me the ilisi inction ot doing so. Your i xeelloncy, this Exhibition is not tho lirst held in J\cw Zealand, but it has this dis tinguishing feature-it is the lirst held entirely under tho charge and control of tho colonial (lov.ruuieut, and conlincd to local producti.nti, nnd weowo it to tbo interest which members of both Hou.-cs of the ' Legislature take in tlio loe.d productions of tho colony. There may bo many dill'eroiices of opinion us to the uiodo in which it is iuo*l dc-irablo lo stimulate local industries, but, jour Excellency, ali ride- and parties, all mo.i, havo johed in pkciug the iiiglitst ' poMiiblj value upon the Iced indii.-tiks of thu colony. Wo are to some extent, if I may use ihe cxprci-.iun, a n.illicliun *.f Uubin.-on Cru.-o.:-, who have come to this isl-.iul with thu vii iv of making tin- inert of .what Ihoy can produce ; but wo are moie fortunate than lU.bin-«n Cru.oe, or tho islands of Jules Verne, who delighted our I cbildhool, b«('tt»sc mc receive a good deal of outride *.. .ist-nee; but, u<> a fact, the many thousands if people who arc now in the colony havo hud for their work, and continue to have foe it, the pro em ing of those tilings that naUro bounti fully jiulds to the industry of man. This country, I venture to think, is alto gellicr lifted for industrial jmrpoc-es. Its splendid climate, its prolilie mil, abundant supplies ol coal, water power, Ihu indus trious hnbitr of Ihe peuplo, its distance from all othor countries, and, 1 vonturo to s.iy. its labour-loving population, must le.nd n.- to tlio conclusion that the colony of Now Zealand is destined to become a large producing and manufacturing country. J do not think wo have don* badly hitherto. Th..io are now living amongst us, and aclivo still, somo of tho early pioneers of tho colony ; and yet it is a fact, which I have ajccrtaiiicd from cattltil inquiry, that no later than tho .'list .March, 18*4, two years since, Ihe net v.vuu of property in the colony, alter dis.-haigb.g all debts, amounted to no loss than \'2~ millions ster ling, or.lll 17 pel hoid-nut bad work for hill a million of neonlo in alio melioration, .'(nil that, your Excellency, is exclusive of the property of the Maoris. It Mould not be light on an occasion liko this to forget that wo have in tho native population, now that all ilillieullies aro sin mounted, a race that promises to bo a foituro in the future of tho colony, a raco whoso , intellectual and physical powers, it developed, must make them remarkable amongst the rest of mankind. (Cheers ) The presont Exhibition, your Excellency, is designed to tell to what amount of pro . gross wo have mado up to Iho present in tho industrial development of Iho colony, and lo servo us, nioieoTur, as an index to future guidance, when wo ccmo to have, as I hopo wo shall have, further exhibitions from timo to timo. Your Excellency will, I am sure, agree with mo that it is espe cially meet that members of both Houses of I'arlhmcnt should be hero to havo undor I heir notice the development of the colony, and to judge fr»m timo to time what im prove melds havo been mndo in industrial production!); and thereforo it is peculiarly gratifying to have tho honour of the presence of the President of tho Legis lative Council and the Speaker of the lloin=o of Assembly, and nearly all tlto members of both Houses. And, your Excellency, I am sure I speak tho views of all assembled when I say that it will bo especially gratifying, not only to thoso now present, bit to thoso who are looking to these proceedings from one end of tho colony to thootlier, that you arc abletosay without indulging in unnecessary compliment, that you think this Exhibition is a credit to tho industiy and labour of tho people of New Zoaland. (Cheers.) I will not, your Ex collcnci, refer lo another exhibition which takes placo very shortly. I can only say that thia present Exhibition repre sents what may bo done by tho union of labour and capital. Shortly we shall in the homo industry branch havo an illustration of what, may bo dono by tho unaided in dustiy of tho individual alone. Before ,1 conclude, I hopo I may bo allowed to remark that we aro lirsl", of all greatly in debted to tho untiring and unwearied o.Nortious of Dr. Hector, upon whom has devolved a vast amount of work in connection with this Exhibition. (Cheers.) I may hero : ilso say that wo aro indebted to Mr Callis for tho ex fcrnordinary r.oal and aptitude ho hap displayed, and I must not forget to men tion tho eervico of Mr Koyworth. And, your Excellency, it is remarkable, in connec tion with this Exhibition, how much wo owo to tho L'ratuitous aid of people in all parts of tho ci limy. I c-.nnot too gratefully acknow ledge the (florin which havo onabled us to produce the Exhibition in a comparatively economical manner, and in such a way as will render it possible to hold other exhibi tions of a liko kind from timo to time. It will now bo only for mo to say on behalf of thoso around mo, in tho presonco of tho members of both Houses of tho Legis lature, tho high ollicial representatives from (ill parts of the colony, including the Mayors of all the principal cities, how ! greatly wo feel indebted to your Excellency for your attendance at tho opening of this Exhibition; and I am expressing their ! opinions, 1 am Ruro, in eaying I hopo this will not bo tho last occasion on whioh you i will rondor a liko sorvicc in connection with - other Exhibitions. (Cheers.) I will ask your Excellency to address this great i gathering and dcclaro the Exhibition open. (Loud applause.)' ,

Liberal Otago View of the San Francisco Service.

(IJY TELEGKAI'U.—OWN CORRISSI'ONDEN. )

Domedin, this day. The "Star," discussing the San Francisco resolutions, says:- "Let tho direct steam servieo by all means and in every reasonable manner be liborally encouraged, but at the samo timo, in tho intero-ts of the whole colony, keep tho San Erancisco line going Wo deprocato utterly tho narrow spirit of provincialism which dictates tho action of thoso who havo regard only for what imme diately affects themselves, and if they could secure a rapid mail service, care not what becomes of the rest of the colony. The House has, wo conceive, taken a sensible view in supporting the Postmaster-General,"

A CHAT WITH GERALD MASSEY.

(By a "Star" Reportkr).

Tuii lifo of Gerald Massey, poet, lecturer, and journalist, has been a severe upward struggle, and, whatever may be his opinions on such subjects as Spiritualism, Evolution, and Christianity, his natural energy, perse veranco, and literary and poetic achieve ments, command the respect of all thinking men. His objects in visiting these colonies aro to noto tho peculiarities of colonial life, and to recruit his health after fourteen years of intense study in the production of bis most elaborato work in four volumes, entitled " Natural Genesis." Mr Massey a life incidents aro pretty well known to loaders of tho English poots, and ins earlier poems, published some years ago by Routledge, London and Now York, won golden opinions from magazino reviewers and men of literary eminence. Dr. Smiles told Gerald Massey's lifo story by way of introduction to his collected poems. He was born of honest parents, in tho lowliest oncumstances of lilo, and commenced to labour for a weekly jiittanco in a silk mill at eight years-of age. Writing of his child lifo, ho eajs :- " Having had to cam my own dear bread, by the cheapening of flesh and blood thus early, I never knew what childhood meant. I had no childhood " Gorald Massey is now in Auckland, anil, knowing ids antecedents and of his strivings for knowkdgo in past revolu tionary years, and remembering the deserved popularity of his well-known " Ballad of Babe Christabel," I could not resist an opportunity, which will never occur again, of seeing and hoaring the author of thoso fiery " songs of freedom, and tender lyrics of lovo," which won for their author a respectable mocd of praise from poetic readers and critics, both in England and America, HO years ago. The poet .\elcomed me into his presence in a five and opcu-heartud manner, and ex pressed his pleasure on meeting, so far away from tho land of Milton and Locke, one who took somo political interest in tho struggles of '-IS—tho most remarkable year of this century. Wo soon got into conver saticii on old times and old acquaintances. I may state that Gerald Massey is slightly under tho middle hoight, and of gonial, unassuming manners. I observed that he was not in good health, and I believe he was never, pby.-ically, a strong man. In conversing with him I was struck with his quiet, unobtrusive demeanour, and clear ness of intellect* in regard to things in general, considering that ho is entirely self taught. I'oets not infrequently arc obtrusive, and fond of ringing thoir versos into tho cars of friendly visitors-it was a weakness of tho amiable Wordsworth-but Ibis self intrusion is not among tho faults of Gerald Massey. In the courso of an hour's chat with tho poet, much passed between us of a literary nature, but tho questions put to him were readily answered. In reply to tho question, " What are your impressions of the social habits and condition of the people of theso c denies, so far as you havo had opportunities of observing thorn!'' ho said, "I find it very dillioult to goncraliso, When 1 had been in America eight months, and was asked what I thought of it all, my answer was: 'I am coming back to sec'

I havo been twclvo months in the colonies, and still feel that 1 want to como back to sco what I think. Roughly speaking, I tee a land of coarso plenty, which must bo a paradise to myriads of emigrants half starved at home. Thero is inevitably much

crudcnois of conditions, much wasto in

doors and out, but 1 see a future well worth working for. Bouglaa Ji-rroiu said of the soil out hero that if you tickled it with a hoc, it would laugh out wilh a harvest. It strikes mv there has been too much tickling wilh tho hoo-too much surface work. You want a lot of our small f*(i-ii*..is with eoii.e means of their o.vn - the men who (lie being onsled from tho land at homo evciy day. Yon sulfur in privato lifo from tho independence of ignorance, which is a Very dill-rent thing from the indopeiidencoof intelligence Hut it is useless lo expect us to help you out of tho domestic difficulty by sending you pei feet servants, ready made. 1 have been hospitably entertained and most kindly trouted over since the lii.-i warm greeting in Sydney. One thing I have been delighted with, that is tho universal use made of llowoi's as a daily beauty in tho Homes of the people, wherever I have been. 1 have been struck with tho look of English solidity iv buildings " Do you consider freo trado or protection bost for a young colony liko New Zealand, in relation to local industries? I am a freetrader myself, and 1 consider that England has absolutely demonstrated the benefits of freo trade for tho wholo people 1 should bo very chary of protect ing anything, although (here may bo necessary exceptions in a young colony, each of which would havo to be discussed on its own merit. It is not the duty alono that tolls, but the profit on the duty. liii percent, duty means another "0 j-;*i' onii, to the purchaser. AJj iid bottlo of eau de C'doijno ;ij Loudon, is lis in .Sydney, and lis

in Auokiand and Dunedin. Nor is it neces

sary for all people to produeo all things, as if they iiero going to stand a siego against all tho rert of the world. You earned a splendid reputation as en English poet in your early lifo, and 1 think your "Ballad o; B&bo Christabel" ono of tlio richest poems of the century. Why, therefore, did you not pursue n -vocation so congenial to your lasto and toolings, iusUa I of thore philosophical subjects upon which you lecture, and upon which jon havo spent yoaru of intense study'; I camo to think that tho truth was moro important than tho beautiful, and that wo could not get at Iho truth until wo had ascertained all the facts for a foundation. You, formerly, 1 remember, took an active interest iv tho political advancement of the people,—capital and labour questions, itc. ■'.

Vos, and do so still. But that is a sub ject for a treatise rather than an half hour's talk. Briefly, I hold that land, tho com mon grazing-ground of tho raco, should bo held for tho benefit of all; that tho unearned increment should return to tho nation, and that no such thing as absolulo privato property in tho soil should bo permitted. 'Iho Alnoiis at first refused to soil land becauso of thoir future generations, whoso rights thoy did not dare to part wilh. You onco acted, I think, with tho Christian fociuli.-ts, with Professors Kings loy and Maurico and other wolluieaning men, but I forget tho special objects of that association ; I believe it was co-operation on Christian principles. Why wero the Christian Socialists not permanently suc cessful ? 1 was ono of the secretaries in the

Christian Socialist Associations, ISoO ,'i. Tho object was to bring the [.reducers and con sumers directly together, and dispense with tho middle-men, who consume so lareo a,

fori ion of the profits. For example, I heard the other day of £_ 10s per hoad being offered for somo cows by a stock dealer, and yet a good joint of beef costs Sd or so the pound. Tho co operative principle did not fail, but has gone on winning other triumphs, although the particular associations passed away, many ot tlio members coming out to the colonies. A good many failures, you know, i{o to niaho success.

Do you consider fiom your experience as a public lecturer in Iho United Stales, Australasia, and in other countries, that lecturing is on the decline ? However instructive a lecture may be, it fails to attract laigo audiences.

Lecturing in Ainciica is at a groat dis count. It has been altogothor overdone. I havo known Bcochor to get a long engage ment at a thousand dollars the lecture, where it would bo difficult for him to get a couplo of hundred now. Where 1 received 200 I might be offered 60. 1 havo dono iairly woll so far as I hivo gone in tho colonies, moro especially in New South \\ ales and Now Zealand, whero 1 havo had audiences equal in numbers and intentness to any 1 have had in tbo old world. lam proud that your Premier, and man of men as I cotisidor Robert Stout, should have presided at my lectures in Dunedin and Wellington. 1 also congratulato you on having such a figurohoad to your colony. 1 have not given many literary lectures, lou soe, when a man is denounced ns n heretic, an infidel dog, an emissary of Satan, it's littlo use to invito the listeners to literary lectures. Do I resent such anguage? (it was used in this colony). Not a bit of it, 1 know tho fix they aid in, I sympathise with thorn, and would set them tree, oven if we had to pension them all off to givo thorn their liberty.

Bo you not think that your spiritualism, and what may bo termed agi.ostickm-a fancy term herc-tond to retard your litorary progress ? I am not an agnostic. My spiritualism carries mo a stop further. But when I first lectured on that subj. ct it gavo the death blow to my literary lecturing. Tho ortho dox community only want a belief in a future life. They-shirk and fear it as a reality ; thoy liko to rido with their backs !<°ro i c"Kino' And "'''en I printed my Tale of Eternity," the; - . volume, which contained my bett verse, was allowed, or made, to fall still-born frcm the prcis. What then? I am one of those who

aro bound fo fight in the forlorn hope of the most unpopular cause—one of those who sow tho seed and do not expect to reap the harvest, and for that purpose I consider the colonios, and especially Now Zealand, offer an uncommon good soil. But bear in . mind that when tho people of Auckland will rush to ofl'or JL'-IO for a lecture, as thoy did last Sunday night, wo are not altogether on Ihe losing s^iilo. Anyway, we aro not. going lo be starved out. By-and-byo, wo shall be tho majority. 1 suppose you are what is termed a Free thinker.

Yes. I never liko to shirk a nicknamo, though that label does not explain much. Freethinkers dill'er indefinitely, just as do fottercd thinkers. They include Material ists and Spiritualists. Wo only agree to do our thinking, each man for himself, and claim the right for other poople to do tho same. Wo acknowledge no teaching as authoritative that ia not veriiiably true, and scientifically based.

MEETING OF IRON WORKERS.

Pursuant to tiotico,a meeting of engineers, smiths, fitters, turners, millwrights, pat ternmakers, planers, borers, coachsmiths, I shipsmiths, boilcrmakers, moulders, copper smiths, brassfinishers, plumbers, gaslitters, zincworkers, strikers, furnacemen, pudlers, shiuglers, rollers, and others connected with tho Iron Trudo, was hold on Saturday ovoning in Kobson's Rooms, to further con sider matters important to tho trado. Mr Thomas I. Miller presided, and nearly 100 men woro present. The Chairman formally oponed the pro ceedings, and tho Secietary (Mr Jury) then read tho minutes of the previous meetings, which were duly confirmed. Mr .Jury thon read out a list of 13 rulos, which, he explained, tho Committee had drawn up chiefly upon the lineß of those in use by the Socioty of Associated Engineers and tiie Glasgow Coppersmiths. The Com tnicteo had not, however, finished their labours, and therefore, a further meeting was to bo held on Wednesday next. It would bo soon that that meeting would be tho last which would bo held with open doors, and tho promoters of the Association had met with sufficient encouragoment to justify tho beliof that it would be well supported. It was an association of trades, and not merely a trades union, so that tho organisa tion ot men of any particular calling, such as tho boilcrmakers, into a union for their own purposes would not necessitate their withdrawal from the Association. In facf, it might bo regarded as a kind of nursery lor future trades unions, and therefore would be exceedingly useful in that way. It would also afford an amount of protection which must bo beneficial to mon of all trades alike and to socioty generally. In respect of tho questions likely to come under their notice, thoy loft themselves somowhat of abroad margin to work upon. They wero to como together for mental and social recreation, discussion, and development. Ono of the many things that they would be called upon to discuss would bo how best to mako a vigorous efi'ort to stop tho importation of foreign machinery that was constantly going en. During ihe recess ho had made a few inquiries on thia subject, and lie would now tako tho opportunity of stating the result. Within the last year and nine months thero had been imported to the port and city of Auckland machinery to no less a valuo than 1257,000. Now, ho asked them as fellow-tradosmen just to consider what effect tho sending away of such an amount of money must have upoi\ a city liko this. He did not suppose thai all of it coukl have beon conserved in the place by the purchaso of looal machinery. Dut supposo half of it had been? Both merchants and artisans would have directly reaped the benefit. Members of their fellow-workmen would not be sauntering down tho whuif pipoin mouth and hands in pocket lo sco this machinery swung out of ships' holds, well knowing that it could just be as easily and as chenjily made here as in Great Britain or America. Ho had not tbe slightest doubt that moro than half that machinery could huvo been made here for the same money, and ho know somo that could havo been made hero for much less than it cost when imported. Lot them ju.t look at tho kind of machinery that had been imported lately. First of all, the machinery used for the Onehunga Ironworks could very well havo been made here. Then thoro was that for tho Sugar Works, and bosides it tho machinery lor the steamer Devonport, and for the Erozon Moat Co.'s works. Thou again, thore wore tho steamer Clansman, tho steam-roller, and the si one breaking machine, all of which could have boon mado in Auckland. They had a right to know tho reason of all this. It certainly was not; right that they should have to walk tho streets, starving for food, as many of their fellow-tradesmen, while those things were going on. Thoy were now organising for the purpose of knowing something about iij and they wero dotoi^ milled io push tho inquiry to its furthest extent, with a view of putting a stop to Ibis unnecessary foreign expenditure. They had recently been entertained with speeches which hail been delivered by members of tho Chamber of Commsrco. Ono of theso gontry had alluded to tho effort that they had recently endeavoured to make, and had said that they also would havo to form themselves into a trades union. Of courso,-the Chamber of Commerce was not a trades union (laughtor). They did not band togcthor to protect, any particular interests. Oh, no j not at all (renewed laughter!. B„t tho artisan .class wero not to bo hood« inked in any such way. Men in a position liko theso merchants were givcu to dust throwing, and "he was sorry to say that very many of his fellow-tradosmen were apt to bo blinded by it. Tho Chamber of Commerce was nothing more nor less thana,meroanti!e trades union at present.deepite the sophistry u*cd to prove tho contrary. It would liko to dictate tc v„en, and nothing was right V.nkss its members did it. In future, it would havo that Association to deal with. Tho speaker concluded a vigorous speech by expressing the hope that similar Associa tions would bo formed in other towns of tho colony.

Mr UinciNs waa glad to see that tho Union was ea'oly established. Ho had only beon in tho colony 12 months, and from his own observations since ho had been in Auckland ho was satisfied that tho Associa tion was an absolute necessity. Al it James Kelly believed that the As sociation would be very benoficial to tho employers as well as tho employed, and, ns it would be likely to extend its inlluence to all other parts of tbo colony, ho thought tho name should bo altered from the Auckland to tho New Zealand Fed orated Ironworkers' Association. He had no doubt that the Socioty would bo prosperous and of great use and heuofit. Mr Cowli-.y spoke Iq a similar effect. 'Iho CiiAiKMt." then called on all thoso who wished to join to do sr, when somo 30 mors mon signed tho roll, making a total membership of about 00. Tho passing of a voto of thanks to tho Chairman terminated the proc edings.

THE LEVANTING BANKRUPT.

Ixveecaegill, this day,

STicrin-x S. Hutchison, gas engineer of I Dunedin, was brought botoro the R.M. this morning on a warrant issued by a J.P., on tho information of ono of Untchison's sure ties. He declared ho had reason to suspect that Hutchison was about to abscond for tho purpose of evading justice Mr Wade, for tho accused, held that tho warrant was bad, as thero was nothing to show that it was feigned by a justice of this colony. Ho contended that tho three last words should havo been added Tho Coiut determined to act, on tho warrant, when counsel raised the point that the Magistrate had no jurisdiction, as tho J.P. Act provided in such casos the person ar rested should only bo brought beforo the Justice issuing tho warrant. The Court took tho samo view, and said tho polico should have taken Hutchison to Dunedin. Inspector Buclflcy said that would bo dono. Kail was refused*.
