EXPORTATION OF FRUIT.

Tira Royal Horticultural Society of Auck land at a recent meeting had under con s ideration the following letter from Messrs L. D. Nathan and Co. on the subject of ex porting fruit :—

October 18, 1887. S. E. Hughes, Esq., lion. Sec. Horticultural Society, Auckland. Si r > —Judging from information we have acquired, we are of opinion that much might, be done to develop tho exportation of fruit from this province to England, and wo shall be glad if you will favour us with your views on the subject, in order that we can, if it is considered advisable, communicate with Messrs Shaw, Savill and Albion Company (Limited), recommending them to re-estab lish ''cool chambers" for the conveyance of fruit and produce in their steamships. We are convinced that fruit shipments, if _ well selected, properly packed, and shipped in chambers of a' suitable degree of temperature, will, when judiciously handled in the English markets, prove highly remunerative.and as the Company we represent is disposed to do everything possible to encourage and facilitate the ex port trade of New Zealand, there will be no difficulty in arranging for the fitting up of suitable transport space in the event of sufficient inducement being guaranteed. Before approaching the S.S. and A.C. we wish to ascertain : —

1. The degree of temperature considered most suitable.

2. What quantities growers would guarantee to ship in first and succeeding seasons. 3. An indication of the rate of freight that would meet tho views of shippers. 4. During what months of the year ship ments would be made. 5. An estimate of comparative dimen sions and weight of the packages that would bo used. And any other information that may occur to you as calculated to piace the sub jecb more fully before our JLondon friends. If shipments could be concentrated into any particular month?, we could endeavour to arrange for the direct steamer to visit Auckland, and so avoid risk of injury to the fruit on the coast. We are, sir, Yours faithfully, L. D. Nathan and Co., Per F. J. Sanderson. It was resolved that the newspapers be requested to publish the letter, and that growers of fruit should be invited to express their views on the subject, after which the Society will hold a special meeting for the purpose of considering the data laid before them, and issuing a report for the public information. As the fruit export trade, if properly developed, would prove of great value to this community, we think there will be some correspondence bearing on this important matter.

MINING NEWS.

(by telegraph.—own correspondent.)

Paeroa, Saturday,

The amount of humbug, delay, and ex pense which miners and others aro put to when endeavouring to comply with the pro visions of the Mining Act of 1886 must

of necessity culminate in strong measures being taken to bring about something in the shape of amendments. Every day one hears of some person being subjected to paltry annoyances or vexatious delays in the matter of securing a title to a piece of ground required for gold-mining purposes, and all this is owing to the unnecessary red tapeism with which the law relating to the mining industry is hedged around. The mining laws in forco here now are based upon laws framed originally to meet the requirements of alluvial diggings, and were never intended to apply to quartz recfing fields, hence the reason why they are found to be unworkable. Karangahake, Saturday. The lessee of the Ivanhoo battery, Mr W. Littlejohn, has been making a series of experiments on gold and silver bearing ore, with the result that he is now able to save about 80 per cent, of the assay value by the amalgamation process, and he still hopes to reach 3 a much higher figure So far as I can learn, this is done by dry crushing, berdan grinding and chemical amalgama tion, which is at present being carried out in a primitive style. The experimentalist says that the only thing required to enable him to extract a much higher percentage than that above quoted is a roaster, which would have the effect of desulphurising the ore and rendering it more amenable to his system of treatment. Richards and party, tributers in the Woodstock mine, are now crushing a 20-ton parcel of ganeral quartz at the Ivanhoe battery, where it is shaping for a payable return. The No. 2 lode in the intermediate level in the Crown mine has been picked up about 26fb 'east of the point where it was bared by the " slide," and it is now bein" , driven southwards with very good resufts. Clements and party, owners.of the Imperial mine, have sent a fpur-ton trial parcel of quartz to the Ivanhoe battery for treatment, and if it shapee payably a large parcel of similar dirt will be subjected to the same process. It is stated that instruc tions have been received from a syndicate of English capitalists who are negotiating for the purchase of tho Mammoth mine to start prospecting operations on that, property without delay, and that work will be commenced early next week. Waitekatjri, Saturday. Now that the fine weather has fairly set in, there is a good deal of prospecting on in this locality, and some ot the parties engaged therein are meeting with promising indications. Mr it,, a. Cooper, owner of the Jubilee claim, has now o-ota large tonnage of stone ready tot transport to the Old Country, where he in tends proceeding himself very . ehortly in order to enlist capital for the thorough development of W?, property Hollis and patty, tributers in th? Wait* kauri mine, are treating a parcel of about 120 tons general dirt at the com panyl battery, and the show on the plates is equivalent to a payable return. Maritoto, Saturday. The frrpfc consignment of 4 tons of ore from the Prospector's mine was despatched 0 ° Auckland last week for the purpose of bein" treated by Mr G. Irafeers experimental plant, but the results.have not, as vet reached here. -P imn £ Northwards on the hanging wall portion of the reef in this mine is still in progressed ore of first-claes quality is being grassed pvorv shift The gold and silver bearing ma dv appears to be widening outgoing dow wards, and the management is of opinion that .it will improve as depth is at tained upon it.

CHURCH PARADE AT ONEHUNGA.

The " H " Troop (Ist Regiment New Zea land Cavalry), commanded by Captain E. G. Leger Erson, paraded ab Wattle's Epsom Hotel on Sunday morning at ten o'clock* there being present:—l Captain, 1 Lieu tenant, 1 Veterinary Surgeon, and 28 non commissioned officers and men. The troop rode to Onehunga, being met at the Royal Oak by the Onelumga N*»val Artillery, num bering 55, and band, commanded by Captain Hulse, the Artillery Band, under the con ductorship of Bandmaster Hunter, and the Onehunga original brass- band, led by Band master W. Hunter. The two latter bands amalgamated and marched in front of the Dragoons, the Onehungja Navals, headed by their band, bringing up the rear. Doctor W. R. Erson, surgeon of the Royal Irish Rides, was also present. The force, as it arrived at Hb. Peter's Church, pre sented quite a gay and martial appearance. During the service the congregation had a treat which they had not anticipated. On hymn 391 (Onward,Criristian Soldiers) being given out, the Artillery Band, to the astonishment and evident delight of all, supplied tho music, which was executed in a most masterly manner. Tho efl'ect was exceedingly good, and thoroughly appreciated by every devotee present. A very ableandappropriato sermon was preached by the Rev. W. E. Mulgan, after which during the offertory the band again rendered a voluntary. After church the Dragoons and Navals fell in and marched to their respective places of parade to the lively strains of the different bands, the possible result being that very few of the young ladies who were present could tell what the text
