Two^ sudden deaths from heart disease yesteraay-a cartel- named-. Easmusesen at \\ elhngton and a labourer named Charles' Hamilton at Sydenham,. Canterbury. John Rnskin denies that he; means.'to become a Roman Catholic ; he also states that he is " riot an evangelical."7 , Si : As his evangelical aunt gave him cold mutton on Sundays, perhaps his objection to evangelicalism is not difficult to explain. , In New South \\'ales there are 4,000 men employed on public relief "works., This means £400,000 per annum:. Cliriatchiirch Board of Education have passed a resolution affirming the desirability of night schools. ~ , ; - Mrs Rachael Murret has died in Dunedin Hospital from burns received a fortnio-hfc ago. v .., ,: - ;,,/ :°, ■ There are,- according to the latest statistics, 1, 150,000,000 persons living, oir the earth. . « ,5

Congregational Church, Sydney,' has attained its 54th .anniversary. r • The King of Sweden is going the Mi way to make royalty popular in his domiri-1 ions. He is about to -make a reduction of. 78,000 kronor in the civil jisfc in order "to make a grant of 20,000 kronor to each of his sons. This is* all the wiser of King Oscar, as the Riksdag; last year refused to grant the sums demanded.1 / " ' ! ' A billet vacant—The Brisbane ■'hangman is dead. ■ ' . ; °: ..

Ust year L 60,246 worth of rabbit skins were exported frofri NeTvXcalah'd. ,* , The Vietoriaii Goyernnieii'fiTately received a letter from England, offering for sale an" invention which " would make rabbits ai valuable an agricultural product as sheep." The purpose of the invention is to utilise the fur of rabbits in making carpets, dres^f fabrics, etc., of extreme lightness, warmth; and beauty.

Of course Mr Duncan Gillies jumped "at the offer. ... -.-•. •-.;

Not at all! He referred it to the Lahds Department, who declined it on the.ground that "its adoption in the colony would probably tend to ah increase rather than a diminution of the rabbit plague." ; A good rabbit swindle was lately worked in Otago by a clever pedlar. ' ,' Tell me about' it so that Auckland farmers-may be warned in time. ;" '' ':

Thß clever fellow gave forth that he ha.i "amessaee of salvation to the farmers." He had for sale a number of small parcels labelled "The Electric Exterminator,'" especially devised in the interest of the rabbits. The vendor claimed for it that n6 rabbit subjected to the extcmiinatorescaped insfcantanegus annihilation. ■ And after the parcel was sold, the" pur chaser found himself in the same position1, I suppose.:

Exactly 1 One farmer on opening out) the " exterminator" for use' found- it tb consist of apiece of ordiiiary, whipcord.with a noose at the end of ;it;'while oh an accbirr panying piece of paper appeared the words': " Place the rabbit's '"head within the noosb and pull until strangled."
