In reply to Mr Okmu.ni), who asked the Government if the circular issued by the Colonial Secretary in May last to managers of nowspapers, requesting them to state the scale of rates at which thoy would insert Government advertisements, Hie Ministkr oi Justice said tbe ciroular was issued with tho sole object of checking the accounts sent into the department. Lie did not think that an advantage would bo gained by giving the advertisements to tho lowest tenderers.

Errors In tho Hospital Report. In roply to Mr Guinness, who drew attention to the fact that whilo the inhabi tants in tho Groymouth district had contri buted tho sum of £SS9 17s during the financial year towards tho support of the Groymouth Hospital, Dr. Grabbam's annual roport stated tho amount as nil, Mr ToLH said he would havo tho report umended.

The Houso wont iuto committee on the Counties Act Amendment Bill. A lengthy discussion onsued on clause 2, providing that now counties are to be created by special Act. Sovorul members opposed the clause, and contended that it was too lato in tho session to proceed with the bill. Mi Hurst moved a further amendment in the clause, to strike out, "But nothing herein contained shall prevent any union of existing or future counties." Tho amend ment was lost on a division by 43 to 21, Clause 2 was thon carried ova division by 4.) to 22. O l clauso 5, providing that tho operation of the Act is not to be suspended in futiiro, Mr Hukst moved that the Chairman leave tlio.chuir. After somo discussion tho motion was negatived on the voices, and the clause was carried by 30 to 112. in clause 0, providing that tho counties of Eden, Munukau, Raglan, Orua, Marlborough, Ashley, and Peninsula shall be suspended from tho operation of the Act, Mr Hurst moved that tho clauso bo struck out, which was lost by 50 to HO.

ALLEGED BRIBERY OF A NATIVE ASSESSOR.

(VS TKLKdH.. I'll — I'AIILIAM KNTAKT HE

rORTHR.)

Wkmin.iton, this day.

On Sir Ocorgo Grey's question coming be fore tho ilnuso yesterday as to tho Maun gataiitari block, Mr Ballaneo stated that ho considorod an inquiry should take place as to tho accusation of bribery brought against tho assessor, but ho could not admit the principle of Parliament in terfering with rehearing.). Tho Chief .Judge waa tho proper person to decide on tho advisability or otherwise of granting a rehearing. Interests might havo arisen slnco the rehearing was refused, and it would bo laying tho country open to a claim for compensation to legislute upon tho sub ject,

Sir Gt:o. Grkv then moved tho adjourn ment of the Houso, in order that a discussion might, lake p'.aeo.

Wi I'kki. and Pakata gave it as thoir opinion that a rehoaring ought to have boon granted.

Mr Bkvce, Colonel Tiumiilk, and Mr llol.mks sjioko, tho two former warmly supporting Mr Ballanco's view.

l)r. Newman mado a sneering littlo speech rclleeting upon tho Judges of tho Court, but was promptly sat on by Mr Moss, who defendod them as gentlemen of integrity and ability.

Tho adjournment of tho Houso was then negatived.

As fur as I can learn, tho facts of the easo aro briefly as follow:—A block of land called Maungatautari was passed through tho Native Land Court, tho judges being tho Chief Judgo, Judge Puckey, and an assessor. After a hearing, lastiug live months, judgment was given in favour of curtain hapus, and generally against tho claim of tho Ngatiraukawa. A rehoaring was applied for by the latter tribe, and in support of this application it was alleged that tho assossor was bribed. Tho rehearing was refused, and a petition was thereupon presented to the Houbo, and hoard by tho Nativo Affairs Com mittee, who reported that thoy saw no reason to interfere with the ordinary operation of tho law relating to rohoariiigs, but, addod that an inquiry should take placo into tho allegation uf bribery agninst tho assessor. 'Iho Chiei Judge had written a long and elaborate'judgment on tho matter, and it was a clauso of that judgment, wired to you yesterday, us a part of Sir Geo. Groy'e quostion alleging a payment of £200 by Mr Moon to tho assessor that was rolied on to urge a rehearing It was staled that vested intorests had actually arisen under tho judgment, and tho fooling seems to be that, while tho strictest scrutiny should talio phico into tho coneluct of the assessor, no substantial dif ference would result in tho ownership of the land ; and further, that1 it would be establishing n dangerous pre cedent to tako action in any case to upsot tho deliberate judgment of the lawful authorities under which person's might probably have acted. With rcfer uneo to this matter 1 may mo.ition that Mr Ilallanco yostei'dny presented a petition from To VVliooro, prajing for a court of inquiry into tho manner iv which tho judg ment ro tho Maungatautari block was arrived at, with a view to tho granting of a rehearing. ■ • i

WAIMEA PLAINS RAILWAY.

(BY TKLEORAriT— PAIILIAIIEKTART RKPORTKB.)

Wellington, this day. The matter of tho Waimoa Plains railway ie at proseut in a Tory much involved oon dition. During the prosont sossion, two petitions regarding the line havo beon re ceived— tho first, which has been referred tothel 'üblicPotitions Committee, is from the ratepayers,«' <t.,personeliablo to contribute to tho 7 per con t. guarantee, asking to be rolioved from payment of such rates. Thii jiotiMon wbb received in July. Tho feeond peti tion, which is boforo tho Public Accounts Committeo, is from tho directors of tho Waimoa Plains Railway Company, stating that owing to tho action of tlio Minister of Public Works in ISB4 in having assessed the rates on an overestimated valuation of the line, thoy aro not able to lory any rates at all. Thoy fear that unless I the Houso, by statute, enables them to levy ratos on a lower account, thoy will lose Inst year's rate, amounting to i- .000. Tho Now Zealand Agricultural Company — the largest landowners —is liable for i' 3,000 of this, and tho balance aro divided amongst about 150 small holders, Yesterday, Major Wales and Air Leary, Secretary to the Company, gave evidence before the Accounts Committee. It is pre dicted that still greater complication will come out of this matter, more especially as the Company still refuse to sell their rail way to the Government, preferring the in vestment togothor with the present guaran-

AUCKLAND RAILWAYS.

The Haiku Valley nnd Rotorua Lines.

(BY TELEGRAPH — PARLIAMENTARY KKPORTKR.)

Wellington, this day. The Public Accounts Committee reminds me that the Committee havo their hands protty full at present.. Besides having to consider the bargains mado by the Government with reference to tlio district railways, they have just had referred ts them tho proposal that tha oolony should guarantee £50,000 worth of Kalhu Vulley Railway Company bonds. The Rotorua Railway was bofore Committeo yesterday, Mr .J. Stewart, __. igitieer to the Company, being examined. His evidence regarding the line apparently produced a favourable effect on tho Committee. It would appear that the Wanganui poople have somo aspirations regarding tho tourist U'afTic lo the Hot Lakes —one of tho ques tions put to Mr Stewart being " Would sot tho trunk line meot Ihe requirements of thia traffic better than tho Rotorua line ."

DR POLLENS PENSION.

(l!Y TELBORArit,— I'AnI.IAMKNTARY KIsFORTKR.)

Wellington, this day. The question ot'Dr. Pollen's pension seems to have a perennial existence The doctor has put in a claim for pension for three years, viz., from 18711. To begin, in 1873 he became entitled, by length of service, to a pension of .418 per annum, but as ho was Colonial Secretary at tho time, ho waived the right to it till 1576, since when he has enjoyed it. Tho matter is now being con sidered by the Public Accounts Committee.

THE GREAT SOCIAL PROBLEM.

Some Timely Words horn tho Rev. J. H. Jones.

Last evening, at tho Baptist Church, Pon sonby, tho Rev. J. Hughes Jones, in dis coursing from tho 13th chapter of Ist Corinthians, sjioko dcploiingly of tho evi dent defection in Christian love in the city churches, Scores of persons of both sexes were perishing from lack of knowledge of tho light and power of tho Gospel of Salvation in our slums and lanes. Ho was struck with horror on perusing the account in that evening's Star of Marshal Booth and Mrs Hutchin son's visits to tho aboaics of the debauched, tho profligate, and tho drunkard, for whoso souls no one seemed to care, it was therofoio apparent that Christian philan thropy and sympathy woro at a somewhat low ebb in their midst whon such a lament able state of social alfairs had been so long permitted to exUt without any vigorous attempt being made to rescuothe fallen and degiaded from the pit of destruction towards whieli that clasa of people was rapidly gravitating. Ho had been to the Salvation Array Barracks that afternoon, and heard statements from Marshal Booth concerning human depravity in town that appalled him, and stirred up his inmost soul in pity for thoso femalos who had errod from the path of virtue, and who wero now leading abandoned lives. ' The visit of Marshal Pooth to Auckland, and the publication of a good deal of what he had seen of vice, sin, and wickedness in tho Star, would, he (Mr Jones) hoped, lead to elleetivo measures boing adopted for tho reformation and recovery of tho multi tudo of young girls and others who had gone far astray. Those wero not beyond tho power of grace, low as thoy had de scended intosocial depravity. Woman, filled with divine love, sympathy, and commisera tion, superadded with prayerful enorgy and po .everaiico, could accomplish much in snatching the frail sisterhood as brands out of tho burning of sin. He would impress upon tho Christian women of hia own congregation the necossity of doing all they could in tho direction of sooking the spiritual and temporal wolfaro of thoir poor abandoned sisters. If thoro were not many of thoso in Ponsonby, there wore plonty of them in othor parts of tho city.

Honour to Whom Honour is Due.

(To the Editor.)

Sir, —If ovor that old aphorism, "Honour to whom honour is due,'" was applicable to any person, it should certuinly be applied to that good soul Mrs Hutchinson. Who could read unmoved that chapter of horror in your issue of last evening without at tbo samo time feeling admiration for the heroic woman wiio has braved tho sneers, insults, and ribald remarks of the worst members of society, bo that sho might help thera out of thoir degradation ? Wo pay tributes of admiration and write pages of history (and rightly so) about a draco Darling and a Florence .Nightingale : Mrs Hutchinson has provod hersolf worthy even of moro grati tude from all thinking mon and women. Long may she have strength to carry out her mission to htr poor fallen sisters.

The proposal of tho Auckland'clergymen to form a Social Purity A. ocia!ion is cer tainly a stop in the right direction. Ido hope it will bo worthy of its name. Let the ministers grapple with this maelstrom of vico at oiko, and in this comparatively now land of ours let (hero not be horrible talos such as wo have heard from Loudon.

In your leading article on this question, sir, you havo placed the question in a clear light. Groat God, that wretches should actually have protection accorded to them to ruin innocent girls of 111 years of ago— ruin them in body mid soul—and tho laws allow it. If ovory man in this city who has a mother, wife, sister or daughter, does not insist on raising tho age to IS years (not oue day loss) boiore a girl's consont to ruin can bo obtained, thon, I say, evil must ultimately overtake some of them-. It is not too much to insist on raiting tho age from 13 to IS every right-minded person will admit the necessity for so doing. Per mit mo, boforo concluding, to offer my humble thanks to you, Air Editor, for your vigorous views on this painful subjoct. Indeed, tho press is : a power for doing good when it to trenchantly asvails that which is bad, and supports that which is good. Such was the easo in your leading article of last night. -Yours truly,

Kew Zealanhkr.
