TABLE TALK.

Last night of the " Pirates." King Tawhiao is at Tauranga. A "Richmond in the field. ' * fThe new Island steamer has arrived. , Snuffed out! The first act of_ retrench ment has been to stop the Special Setble ' ment Scheme. ! Still there were 70 special settlers sent off on Saturday, and there are " more to fol low " next Aveek. Of all the virtues gratitude has tha shortest memory. Oh, don't bother 1: MrLundon's services to the country will not be forgotten. By the way, he is to address the country bump i kins at Otahuhu to-night. Mr Bugden, contractor, Abercrombie street, is dead, at the age of 67. The Wingatui Viaduct, just opened on the Otago Central Railway, is the biggest bridge in the colony. It is 690 feet long and 150 feet high, and cost L 22,000. Wintry and wet weather has driven the gumdiggers oiit of the Papakura swamp. Auckland City Council want to know whether the Government paid L 5,500 to the Dunedin Corporation for the relief of the unemployed. Councillor Atkin has recovered good health. Chrisfcchurch was again illuminated on Saturday evening last. The illumination of Auckland was hob generally carried out. , Three thousand children were treated to i a Jubilee entertainment at Christchurch on j Saturday. An Anti-Chinese and White Man's Vege table Company has been formed in Mary borough (Q). Important public meeting re Bible in . schools to-night at V.M.C.A. Hall. Parents should attend. New sovereigns and half-sovereigns were to be struck by the Melbourne Mint, to be issued on and after Jubilee day. Thus the Sydney "Telegraph" on the Stout-Vogel combination:—"AGovernmenti ■ which preaches retrenchment after announc ing a deficit admits that ib has seriously blundered, and when this confessed malad ministration is made the basis of a proposal to add to the burden of taxation the electors are apt to become infuriated and retaliate through the ballot-box." * The Tasmanian Government advised his Excellency to release 25 light-sentence prisoners from Launceston gaol and 22 from Hobart gaol in honour of the Jubilee. This was done, but one of the liberated offenders quickly relapsed, and was re committed to durance vile. Frost, snow, and sleeb at Dunedin. Happy Auckland has only wet and bluster ing weather. Wellington newppapers, for a wonder, speak approvingly of Sir George Grey's ad dress to the electors oi Auckland. Alfred Larkins has died in the hospital at Dunedin after having his leg ampa tated. A 'flx-year-old girl was sent out for milk at Ponsonby yesterday, and wandered' all the,way to Mount Koskill Road before she vfos restored to her parents. Haslett's new hall in Eden Terrace is to he opened-on Friday evening next by a grand invitation " social." A successful gathering is anticipated. , ■. \ r The Empress of Japan intends to intro duce English manners into her court life. Her thief difficulty will be finding the manners. ' ■ •■•-•.-• ' T'ne Financial -Reform League have sw*allowed the Income Tax proposals, and vrJl recommend the raising of school age to ?.even years. ■ - The fire at the Railway Terminus Hotel was discovered by Mr Samuel Pearce, a boarder there, and he at once threw some buckets of water on it, which did much to suppress the flames. It was a mistake to say that the Eden Hall was destroyed by the fire on Saturday morning last; the building is still intact. Thus Consul Griffin at a recent banquet) in Sydney :—" Over immense areas west of the mountain ranges are found the multi plying blades of grass and stalks of grain— those banners of peace in green and gold." A Cincinnati paper prints the following advertisement:—" Wanted a lady corres pondent, by a -prisoner to be discharged next year, aged 35, with a view to matri mony.!'
