NOTES AND COMMENTS.

The large and increasing demands made upon the funds of benevolent institutions for charitable relief is a very unpleasant and discouraging thing in a young colony like this. The same story comes from all the Southern societies. At tbo annual meeting of the Benevolent Institution in Ttnnediu, the Chairman referred th the increasing de mands on the funds this year. The esti mated expenditure was increased by over £2,000. Fully two-thirds of the cases re lieved were traceable to drink or wife de sertion. An increase this year of 116 wives, with 424 children, enmo to the institution for relief. The total relief cases during the year was 2,038, an increase of 630; the outdoor relief distribution showed an increase of £1,246. The results in Wellington for last yepr were very similar. The total expendi ture of the Wellington Benevolent Institution in charitable aid. during the year was £2,486, towards which £610 was provided by voluntary contributions. The expenditure was £350 in exceES of that of the preceding year. The trustees attribute the increase to general do pression in the colony, and the fact that many men who have arrived from elsewhere, hoping to obtain employment on railway contracts in Wellington provincial district, had been obliged to seek relief. Board and lodging expenses have been considerably heavier than formerly, chiefly owing to the number of old and decrepit men who have been, travelling for years from district to district, not remaining in any one place long enough to be chargeable to it under the Act, and who have gravitated into tho city, while the central situation of Welling-, ton causes it to receive tnauy waifs and strays who arrive by English and Austra lian vessels.

The busir.e?s transacted dnring last year at the Post Office SaviDgs Bank in Auck land gives evidence that the " depression ■' has been felt as well as heard about. The Chief Postmaster has made the following abstract of the year's transactions in the Money Order and Savings Bank Depart ments :— 27,814 Money Orders issued for .. £99,969 0 9 Commission on ditto. .. .. 1.5901510 28 319 Mooey Orders paid for .. 103,331 8 0 15.033 Savings Bank deposits for 164,860 111 2.195 New accounts opened. 12 017 Savinga Bank withdrawals for 176,4711611 2,171 accounts closed. : , ■ : Krcuss of withdrawals over deposits , 21.6U 12 0 Dr. ' At credit of depositors on Jan. 1, 1886 .. .. .. .. .. £216,141 1 3 Deposited during 1888 .. .. 151,860 4 ll Interest paid and allowed.. .. 8 272 1111 Total £379,273 18 1 Ck. Amount of withdrawals during 1880 .. 176,47116 11 Amount at cedit of depositors on SlstDeo., 1886 .. .. .. 202,802 1 2 Total .. .. .. i 5379.2''3 18 1 "While it is satisfactory to lenn that 2,495 new accounts have been opened against 2,474 closed, tho withdrawals are found to exceed the deposits by £21,611 12a. Thuo, although it is apparent that there has been a drain on the reserve , funds of the industrial classes, it is evident that habits of thrift are being more widely disseminated, and the fact that in the Post Office Savings Bank alone a sum of £154,860 4s lid W8 dopo=ited by Auckland working iron and their families, as tho savings of a eii^ile year, proves that there is still a considerable surplus of in come over expenditure. The Auckland Sayings Bank in Queen-street will in ad fiition show n large cum liili past during tho year by the industrial and provi.lont of the community.

The somewhat rora.irkablo fact that two bankrupts in Wellington who hive lately been imprisoned under warrants ifsued by Ilia Honor tho Chief Justica have subsequently been released by thesame.Tudgo under Habeas Corpus writs, owing to irregu larity in the original warrants, has given rise to a good deal of comment. In referring to the Bubjoct the " Post" last night cays :"It is somewhat startling to find tbat a man may be arre?ted at ono end of the colony and taken in custody to tbe other end of it under a document which really has no legal force, and ia not in the term author ised by law. It makes one doubt whether, the Habeas Corpu3 Act and Magna Charta notwithstanding, tho liberty of the subject in flow Zealand is quite so sacred or so assured as it is sup posed to ba. Wo do not, of course, in the slightest detrrea suppose that his Honor the Chief Justice has cot acted strictly in accordance with law and precedent. Tho very careful and pains taking manner in which ho has reviewed his own action and reversed it in each case, chows that no pos-ible blame is ftoputable to him, and the position in 'which he was placed waa a moat difficult and no doubt painful one. There: must), however, be something wrong in the state j of the law when such things are possible ba i have occurred in tho two cages we have mentioned."
