iThe Rouraelian difficulty is taking a imore hopeful aspect for the Christian races in Turkey. The Sultan, pro bably recognising in the movement an anti-Russian spirit, is suid to be willing to give the people their wish by consolidating Bulgaria and Rou melia under Prince Alexander. That the Sultan would act wisely in con ciliating the people of the detached Provinces by giving them a national existence which in after years they will consider worth fighting for against the encroachments of the common enemy, is plain enough. ?ut the policy ot the Porte is not often dictated by pru :dence. In accepting the results of Ithe recent revolutionary movement, it is reported that the Sultan iwill have the support of the three Western Powers —England, France, land Italy—and the Marquis of Salis bury has. already declared publicly that ihe does not think that England should 'interfere to thwar,t the aspirations of ithe people. On the other hand, Ger many, Russia, and Austria are credited ;with taking an opposite view., being ■disposed to compel a strict observance |to the letter of, the Treaty of Berlin. We doubt whether any Power but 'Russia would carry its opinion to the point of compelling the Sultan, against : his wish, to re-establish in office the deposed. Governor of Rpumelia, The is really one which ought to be ileft for the Turkish Government to decide; and although there is still the broken t/eaty to r.epair, and, such a .rupture can hardly bo settled without eliciting new demands from Russia, the 'prospect of a quiet and satisfactory re adjustment is still a hopeful ope.

The Late Session.

;Mr Mosfl, M.H.R., writes to ub on tho late session: —Sir, —At tho risk of being taunted with harping on a favourite string, I should i liko to draw attention to what appears to |me the most noteworthy feature of the late remarkable session. I refer to tho paralysis that reduced the Assembly to impotence in face of tho grave depression under which a ' very large portion of Ijhe colony is suffering. ' Except by a few isolated members, nothing was even attempted to relieve this depres ; eion—nothing to reduce the burdens of the people or to adapt those burdens to their 'diminished moans. On the contrary, new taxation was imposed, and in i his last worda on tho loßt day of the session the Premier warned us that, whatever Ministry might bo in power next year, a further increase of Customs duties would be found inevitable. This paralysis is tho more noteworthy from the universal admission that no previous As sembly contained a larger number of inde pendent, earnest and able mon. Can there be two opinions ns to the cause ? Doeßit not He ready at hand in tbeovilßystem of coalitions by which New Zealand has been governed for some years ? Is good govern ment possible so long as men of tho most opposite political views and sympathies form coalitions to occupy the Ministerial Benches, and combinations to make up the sides which are miscalled parties ? Coali tions are exceptional in other countries, and are always looked on with aversion. In New Zealand they have come to be regarded as the only means of government in the present, while papers and people aliko speak of them as the only possible arrange ment for the future.

I venture to aaaert that the origin of these coalitions must bo Bought partly in the borrowing policy initiated in 1870 and pursued with lamentable zeal for the last 15 years, and partly in the destruction of the Local Governments which had previously prevented the concentration in one Govern ment of the whole power and expenditure of tho colony. Both those great changes were violent and sudden. They have forced upon successive Ministries the continuous borrowing of large sums to satisfy excited local desires, and they have led to the established practice of buying up districts to keep Ministers in office until accident, or weariness, or some exception ally gross blunder led to their defeat. Under such conditions how could parties, united by a common aim and common sympathies, exist? What could be expected but incongruous aggregations, whose chief bondofunionwasa common determination to secure for their several districts the largest possible share of the common plunder ? To any reflecting mind it must be a source of pride that Now Zealand has passed through iSyearsof this government without complete demoralisation, and that the heart of the country is still vigorous and sound. During the last session thlscystem of ooali> tions led to the further expenditure from the Loan Fund of very largo sums that ought as suredly to have been defrayed from revenue. Over three-quarters of a million were ap propriated for roads, buildings, defence, and telegraph extension. Included in this were large Bums for the mere repair of

roads and buildings, for mnchinory and material for tho Printing Office, for instru ments for the Telegraph Department, for powder aud shot, for immigration, and for a host of similar items, to pay interest on which for yeara to come is clearly op posed to overy principle of sound financo, and must end by impoverishing the colony. Upon this expenditure how many votes must havo hung ? How many country dis tricts would have repudiated as traitors to their best interests any of thoir members who might dare to opposo a Government showing such paternal consideration for thoir roads and bridgos, though at tho cer tain cost of future embarrassment to tho whole colony? Tho ovil and the romedy aro equally clear. Lot tho people insist on tho re establishment of sound and independent Local Governments capable of delivering tho General Assembly from local demands, and from tho confusion and corruption such local domands produce. Thon, and not till then, will they be able to insist on an end being put to wild and miscellaneous borrowing ; then they can insist also on a liu'go reduc tion in the number of members in the Legislature and on a similar roduction in tho crushing expondituro of tho col ony. Thon, and not till then, may wo hope to get rid of "coalitions " and " com binations " dostructivo to good government, suro to olovato privato abovo public in torosts, and miro to culminate in jobs liko tho purchase of useless district railways which is the groat blot on tho last session. Until thon tho lamontablo paralysis of the Assembly must, I foar, continue, and tho overweighted onorgy and industry of tho pooplo boar only half thoir fruit in combating tho doprossion under which bo largo a numbor nro keonly suffering. It is hopeloss to look for a solution to tho Aseombly, bewildered by claims on its im mediato attention, and sitting in session only half as long as tho Parliaments of othor colonios, Tho prossuro must como from outsido, and it cannot with safety bo much longer delayod.—l am, &c, F.

About 5 o'clock on Tuosdny ovoning,ns a dairyman namod Robinson was riding along Symonds strcot, near tho Catholic Cemetery gates, ho was mot by a cab which was coming quickly along. Owing to tho operations of tho Tramway Company having taken up tho centre of tho roadway, tho cab passed very close to Mr Robinson, and in doing so, unfortunately ono of tho wheols passed over tho foot of tho animal he bestrode, completely breaking tho fetlock. Mr Robinson at once got oil his horso and led it to tho atablo of Messrs D. and H. Robertson, whoro it was found nocessacy to destroy it next morning. Mr Robinson is not awaro whothor tho cabman know that he had done much damage, for ho drove away at a rapid paco.

The Wellington social scandal known as the "Hutt Tarring Case" haa ended in smoke for the present. Tho trial of Walden, on tho chargo of assault, occupied the Supremo Comt all day yesterday. For the defqneo, witnesses wero brought to provo an alibi. Mr Holmos stated that ho row the prisoner, on tho night of tho assault, at half-past seven. Tho other witnosses do posed that, they woro with the accused on tho night of the assault at 10 o'clock. His Honor, in summing up, attached no crodonce to the latter witness's ovidonco, and summed up dead against tho prisoner. The jury retired at a quarter-past soven, and returned at twenty-five minutes to eleven, with a verdict of not guilty. On tho announcement of the vordict, tho crowd in the Court gavo vont to choors, which woro tukon up by t.hoeo outside, who wero unablo to get into Court.

Mr Madden, for tho plaintiff, contended that the father waß in equity bound to provido food for his eon, whom ho had ordered to lcavo his .houao. Mr W. J. Napier, for tho defend ant, said plaintiff must bo nonsuited, as it was undoubted law that a father was under 1 no logal obligation to provido his child with necossarios in tho absence of an expressed contract, and this had been so laid down by Baron i'arko. Ilia Worship nonsuited plaintiff with costs.

" A Shareholder " writes : —" Would you, through tho medium of your valuable paper, allow me to call attontian to tho most un satisfactory progress which has been made in the liquidation of the late Mutual Fire and Marine Insurance Company of New Zealand. As it will be remembered, the Company wont into liqui dation about the 14th June, 1883, and a small dividend was doclarod about six months afterwards. There remains yet to be divided a sum equivalent to a dividend of 3d per sharo. It was at first understood that there were outstanding claims at Fort Elizabeth in South Africa barring the way to the settle ment so devoutly wished for by tho share holders. Lately, however, tho reason alleged for this extraordinary dolay has been a pending lawsuit with a Southern agent of the Company. No such lawsuit appears in any of the Southern papers. Under tho circumstances it would be most desirable that the shareholders should have someauthentic information upon thosubjeot. Upon inquiry wo aro informed that the de lays have been unavoidable, and have, in the ond, proved a gain to tho shareholders, the amount divisible being lavgor than if the business had been hurriedly wound up. It is further stated that matters are now so well advanced that the affairs of the Com pany will be finally closed up this month.

Ho sat up first, but afterwards ho lay down, and ho died as I was holding him by tho arm with ono hand, and trying to keep tho boat right with tho other.

Tho separation proposals to bo discussed tonight by the residents of Kscky Nook, Kingland, &c, at the meeting in tho Christians' Mooting Houso, New North Road, should havo tho effect of drawing out a largo number of rosidonts, who complain •of tho neglect of their interests by the Mount Albert Iload Board. It has been suggested that the now district should em braco all of tho present district on this side of a lino drawn from noar tho Western Springs to the level crossing between Morningaide and Mount Albert. This would givo the new district the Government reserve which lies near tho old VVhau Road, at the same time loaving to Mount Albert tho valuable mountain reserve, &o. The proposed now district' ifl sufficiently largo, wealthy, and populous to be autonomous, while tho neglected con dition of its roads and etreots would fully justify socossion. At the same time, ratopayors might do woree than oon^ bidor tho view advocated by a correspon dent, "Inca," in those words:—"The separation movement seems unsagacious aiter tho long united action between the various districts for some 15 years, and more so when it is considered that Mount Albert had the majority in that Board, con sequontly all the ratos levied, not only in their own but in tho other districts, woro dovoted ontirely to the improvements in Mount Albert, much to the disgust of tho minority. Suroly now thp other districts, by thp influx of residents, possess a majority in the Board, they are not going to be so foolish as to divido, and throw their oppor tunity away withput making Mount Albert bear an equal proportion of expenditure on improvements in their own district,"

CUTTING DOWN HOBSON STREET.

Adoption of an Amended Plan of Operations.

Thk longthy delay that has taken placo in compioting the negotiations for tho cutting down of Hobson streot has given rise to tho impression in somo quarters that tho whole mattor had been dropped. This is, however, not so. Tho quostion was brought up again at tho City Council last night, whon Cr. Montaguo moved:—That tho following rosoluUon passed 19th Fobriiary, ISBS, bo ro.'rindod, viz : " That tho membors for the North Koad bo requested to interview and consult tho property ownors and occupiers in Hobson-streot and Victoria streot, with a view of obtaining thoir written consent to tho alteration of the prosont lovol of llobson-stroot as far as Vic toria - streot, and to roport to tho Council as early as possible- la moring his resolution, Cr. Montague said he brought it forward with regret, because they found it thoroughly impracticable to carry out tho previous intention, which would havo mndo Hobson-stroofc the best thoroughfare in tho city. The sido streets oHerod dilliciiltiCH, and obstacles wore placed in tho way by proporty ownors. Tho prosont resolution would mako Hobson stroot a good stroot, and roliovo tho trallic in Quoon-streot. Cr. lJignan seconded the motion.—Cr. Crowthcr complained that they wore asked to vote in tho dark, Thoy wore not told whether thoro wero any objectors, and what was the amount required. Ho thought they required furthor information.—Cr. Goldio thought they wore perfectly justified in re scinding tho motion, sooing that they were told that it would cost £30,000. The pro sont motion meant the substitution of a smaller for a larger work, which wns found to bo impracticable just now. Tho motion was put and carried. —Cr. Montague thon moved, " That the lovols of Hobson-streot, between Swaneon streot and Durham-street, as fixed, be nl torod to a gradient, ob shown on plan, viz., of about 1 in 14 82. That Wynd ham - street bo graded from Chapol Squaro to Hobson-street, and Swan son stroot bo cut oub to its fixed lovols; also, that the North Ward members bo authorised to receive signa tures to deed, as previously arranged by Council, and that tho Engineer bo in structed to proparo plans and specifications to lay on tho tablo this day fortnight." In moving this resolution, Cr. Montague said that although the new grade was not quite to easy aa tho ward members wished, it was ono thoroughly practicable, and would not affect tho side streets. lor 252 foot tho grado would bo 1 in 11, thence up to Durham-street 1 in 14, and from Durham street to Victoriastroot 1 in 50. The modified cost would bo £6,000 or £7,000 against £10,000 or £17,0(K), which amount did not account for the side streets or compensation in Chapol Square. —Cr, Holdship moved as an amondmenti, "In view of tho importance of cutting down IJobson-strcot, that tho Councilplodge iteolf to do so when the property-owners consent to a grado of 1 in 10, and that a special act bo introduced into Parliament noxt session to have such works done sub ject to no claims for compensation." The amondmont was not seconded, and tho motion was carried.

FIJI NEWS.

[From the " Fiji Times."]

Levoka, October 1.

There is a rumour from Tfviuni that three young Fijian girls, tho daughters of men of rank, who have been resident at Somosomo, started but recently to swim from Wai Ca, a Taviuni coast town, to Vanua Lovu. Tho distance to the noaroat point of land is be tween eight and ten miles. They were swimming nearly all day, swopt about by the curront, whon two turned back and reached Taviuni again. Tho third, Adi Mcli, is supposed to be drowned. As girls do not start to swim across Soinosomo Strait without a vory strong impelling cause, it is pretty certain that there is some rascality at tho buck of tho matter, of which more may yet bo heard. Tho prosecution and punishment of Cap tain Smith, of tho schooner Saucy Lobs, for tampering with hia ship's paperi after they had been signed by the Sub Colloctor of Customs, has brought him face to face with retributive justice, lie knowingly took tho two abnconders, Bedford and Wiugato, to Samoa, and theroby made himself morally, if not legally, a party to their fraudulent act. After tho departure of the vessel, he added their names to tbo passonger list, which had been signed by the Sub-Collector of Customs, and then fooliskly brought tho paper back to Fiji. Captain Smith was ordored to pay a fine of £00, or, in default, to be imprisoned for two months. Three days were allowed in which to pay the fine. By tho Arawata tho Key. A.
