HALL THE POISONER.

His Conduct »« G» o1 -

By far the most interesting prisoner de tained within the walla of Mount Eolen gaol is the poisoner Thomas JI. Hall. There is an indescribable something that dis tinguishes him from his fellow unfortunates that would enable a stranger to select him easily from the others. His' quick intelligent glance and the habitual look ot hopeless woe—indescribably hopeless woe —on his face at once interests the most casiial observer. Those who have come in contact with him in prison believe that he will not long survive. He is a perfect martyr to asthma which very much inter feres with his rest. , AJready the convict has developed into, an , "old soldier" and has various ! little tricks for attempt ing to "sc-uvip" his allotted task. Ho complains Mint he, has fewer privi leges than were allowed to him while at Lyttclton, and seems to think that a person of his social position should be allowed greater latitude than the com mon herd. He ! s allowed to receive letters .from hi- rel .ti-vun once ever/three months 4 or so, a dw "I undorstand that both hie wife and his ag I mother have written to himVi

Pond ; ,and ■jjfo's exhibit of churns, cream - holdeft and*'enamel-lined butter •boxes. ♦ The particular merit of the butter boxes is the : enamel, which acts as an antiseptic and keeps the con tents fresh. They! are particularly valu able for exporters. They are simple in con struction, and a child may put them to gether. Some of the churns .shown have an eccentric motion, which tends to the more rapid production of the butter.

A ELECTION NEWS.

Mow Koll Stuffing, is Worked. Wβ are assured by political quidnuncs and other, fish from ?low life depths," acquainted with the hanky-panky of elec tioneering, that wholesale roll stuffing is proceeding in connection with the city and suburban rolls, and that the forthcoming general election will be distinguished by more illegal- practices than any previous election since the "bad old times," when the working bullocks of a settler at the W ado were wonb to exercise a potent voice in the affairs of the colony by recording their votes. Per haps we should explain to the uninitiated that ''roll stuffing"means the placing of the names of persons on the electoral rolls who are not duly qualified ; indeed, it is not even necessary that tho patronymics should be those of real persona at all. So long .as .the .names are there,, the clever persons § who , have d one the "stuffing" can easily* at the time of the election, find plenty of men willing for a sniall consideration to personate their fictitious "John Smiths" and ''Thomas Browns." How will these fictitious names beturned to good account i.s the next ques tion ? Well, let us suppose that X. has placed 50 fictitious . names on an electoral roll. "Of I these, like Ko-Ko, in " The Mikado," he has a " little list." Two or three clays before the election he approaches one of tho candidates and -offers-to poll him 50 votes for say LIOO. The candidate knows that if he doei not make a purchase the votes will in all probability be bought by one of his opponents so he passes over tho LIOO and the chances are thafc at the election throe-fourths of the sham votes are recorded. And is there no check for this ? Scaucely any ; the election will follow the-compilation of the rolls ho rapidly -that the Registration officers .will * not have »|ime to examine properly, into the bona ;sdes of the unknown .votes, a Tho'bnly effective check is the :law against! persona-: tion, "and -'personators may: well hesitate Before"' incurring the* heavy penalties at taching to such offence
