PRICE-ONE PENNY.

TABLE TALK.

Politics still to the front.

Mr Moss in Parnell Hall to-night. "' ■' -. > Free Trade discussion at ST.M.C.A. HalLi Messrs Withy, Moss and others tako part, ' tj

The " fine little fellow " had a rough time last night. Buffalo Minstrels still draw large houses at the Opera House.

Herr Tutschka's next chamber concert takes place on Friday evening. Scarlet fever appears still to be lingering in the city.

Mr J. E. Macdonald, Chief Judge of the Native Land Court, is now residing at New Plymouth. ° )

The Scottish "chiels" performed last night to an enthusiastic audience at Te< Aroha. /

It is calculated that there are now ten thousand men digging kauri gum in Auck< land district. 1

Of these over 100 reside in the city and. go daily to Birkenhead, where fair wages are made. i

Ohinemuri County Council propose raising a loan of LB.OOO. * 0 AtDunedin the R.M. has decided thabj the City Council, as the Central Board ofi Health, were liable for fees, to medical men] for reporting cases of infectious diseases. I New Zealand diggers at Barberton," South Africa, say it is no place to work for. wages. At Wellington, a fisherman named..' Ambrose has died from injuries inflicted-: upon him by a runaway horse a few days i ago. ' J

J. Hansen, butcher, Christchurch, was found dead in bed yesterday morning. It! is mentioned as a remarkable fact that he i had L 75 under his pillow. i

The correspondent evidently could nob understand why a man with L 75 should, want to die so suddenly. !

Lot of important political addresses lasb night—Sir George (srey at Napier, Major;! Atkinson at Wellington, Sir Julius Vogetj at Dunedin, and Sir Robert Stout at Lyttel-! ton. , The girl drowned in the Waimakiriri i River, Canterbury, has been identified as thai daughter of a View Hill settler named] Larsen. j

Heavy rain keeps falling at Wellington ;,' the ground will be slippery for the interpro- i vincial football match there on Thursday. j Sir Juliils Vogel says that the Premier isu a man of "marvellous intellectual power,"] who is everywhere recognised as " the most" rising colonial statesman of the day." } The United States now manufactures,! yearly 70,000,000 barrels of flour, and of 1 this one-seventh part is exported. Thaj great bulk of this flour is sent from eight! Atlantic ports to Europe. , Sir Wm. Jervois recently visited SfcJ Patrick's R.C. College at Wellington, and had a warm reception. In the course of a speech on the occasion, • His Excellency imparted the pleasing in formation that he used to sing "The! Young May Moon," " The Minstrel Boy,", and " The Harp that Once," when he roved; a young Irishman over the Emerald Isle. 3 His Excellency then hoped they would.] have fine weather soon, and Archbishop.] Redwood (who was apparently overcome by'J the gubernatorial eloquence) thanked ths!j genial Sir William, and assured him that' his visit had added a *' red'letter day " to i the College calendar. 1

There have beer, two deaths from hydro-, phobia in New York city during the last eight years. .1 It is said that the new contract between \ the New Zealand Government and.the Mid-'j land Railway Company has at last been 1 settled. i

Mr A. Gosden, a Wellington butcher, re- j cently undertook to eat about two pounds ' of his Wn sausages in six minutes ; he ' probably wanted to inspire public confi- j dence in the article. AWof £1 was also ; at stake. At Christchurch yesterday J. T. Harris j and L. E. Potter were committed for trial j on charges of stealing drapery goods from their employers. John Wilson and David Marks are also to stand their trial for receiv- ! ing the stolen goods. j Captain Skinner, of Hepburn-street, has j had sent him two hen eggs from Rankokore, Bay of Plenty, each of which weighs 3Jozs. j They were laid by common barn-door ■ fowls..

During the twelve weeks ending 23rd j July, 129 railway passes were granted to. < Auckland workmen in search of employ- j ment., chiefly to Lichfield,Te Awamutu, and! Otorohanga. The total cost was considerable, and the) Government, in their retrenching zeal, j think that the men who got employment' ought to refund the railway fare.
