The Loss of the Kapunda

Full details concerning the loss of the Kapunda cannot bo known until tho arrival in England of the survivors of Hie catastrophe, now on their way homo in the steamer Patagonia ; but the fatal collision with the Ada Melmore is now ascer tained to have occurred " a little to the south of Macoio, and within a com paratively short distance of the coast.' There aro no tidings of a heavy,,foa, nor of any impediment to tho effica cious u.e of life-saving apparatus, except lack of time ; but whilst it ie difficult to eupposo that the Kapunda sank too rapidly to allow of the boats being lowered by one of toe new methods, it is impossible to doubt that many lives might have been sived by nieans of rafts and other appliances, in ad dition to the sixteen men who wore picked up from the water by the Ada Melmore. The total number of passengers saved is S. AH hope of there being other survivors must now, it i. feared, bo abandoned. In quiries have been'mado at every likely port along the South American coast without eliciting information. It is, of course, just possible that somo survivors may be en board vessels homeward bound, but tho hope is a very slender one.

A Singular Story.

Tho "Midland Advertiser" (published at \Vednoebury) contains a singular narrative in connection with the losa of tho above vessel. A girl named Louisa Bonn living with her mother in Qiioeti street, Wednos bury, some time ago expressed a desire to go to America, and her friends ultimately yielded to her wishes. A suggestion was, however, made to her by an outsider at tho last moment that she should go to Australia, and despite her mother's remonstrances, she decided to go thero. The family wore poor, and great difficulty was experienced in collecting the necessary funds, and in providing the girl with an outfit. Her box was forwarded to London, and sho followed, to join the ship thero. Then fo lowed the most extraordinary part of the affair. The mother, who wos prostrated with grief, began to have Btrango visions. Repeatedly she imagined she saw a largo rock that was jutting out from the ocean, and that upon this rock there was always standing a large bird. Then ahe would eeo a ship loaded with passengers, strike against the reck and sink. She fancied she could hear the shouts of the sailors, and the shrieks of tho women on board ; and frequently, both at night and day, the strange hallucination occupied hor mind. On tho day before the ship sailed she wa. in the kitchen at work when a cry of "O, mother !" seemed to como from tho cellar. Even now tho woman affirms that it was Louisa who shouted, and that it was no; the result of an excited and imaginative brain. Mrs Benn was so alarmed that ahe at once telegraphed for her daughter to come back. The girl wos at tho time on board Bhip, and for a moment she hesitated to obey. The doctor on board the vessel advised her to stop, but the schoolmaster urged her to obey her mother. Sho decided to leave the ship and go home ; but her luggago was not given to her aa it could not bo got at, and everything she possessed, oxcepting what she wore, had to be left in the ship. Until the news of the loss of the vessel was conveyed to her she regretted she had not remained on board. Several of her com panions are included among the list of the drowned, and she is thus able to realise the narrowness of her escape.

Extraordinary Scene at an Eviction.

A Cork corre.pondent states that on the morning of February 7th Sub-Sheriff Hur gard, of Kerry, went with forty policemen to carry out the eviction of Mr John T. onch, P.L.G., a few miles distant. Shortly before their arrival io tho locality, Mr Trench got the word from town that he was to be the victim. He determined upon offering aa much resistance in defence of his home as he could, and, with the aid of eympathi.ing neighbours, ho began to barricade his " castle" as well as he possibly could with stones, gates, branches of trees, <fee. Having secured the house outside as best he could, he, with about a dozen youog men, entered through one of the windows and immediately cut away the stairs leading from the lower to tho upper part of the house. They then blocked themselves in ono of the rooms on tho eocond floor, and secured the door by placing a largo iron gate propped by thick poleß against it. In the meantime, horns were blown, and hundreds of the peasantry poured in from the surrounding districts. The bailiffs, on getting the word, bogan their work with a will, and after about half an hour succeeded in gaining an entrance to the lower part of the house, which they cleared of its furniture in a short time. In the meantime four policemen and District-Inspector Rice who were up in the upper landing called on Mr Trench and the other occupants of the barricaded room to surrender quietly and peaceably. This was only met by the defenders with cries of. "Never! never!" and cheers for the " Plan of Campaign," " Parnell," " Dillon," " O'Brien," 6-e. The police then fell to breaking tho door with hatchets and every other available, thing thoy could get. After hard work, they suc ceeded in breaking the door, but then the real difficulty presented itself. The iron gate inside was supported by thick props, which ware held firmly by the occu pants of the room. The police, finding they could not push in tho gate by main force, resorted to the plan of putting levers through the gate, and endeavoured to remove the props inside from the gate. Notwithstand ing all this, the police could not effect an entrance to the room. They were then ordered to load their guna with buckshot, which they did. Seeing this, Mr Trench bared his breast, and said he was better prepared to go before his God than his agont, George Sands After several hours' struggle an entrance was effected and the tena.te evicted.

The Socialist Meeting in London.

SERIOUS RIOTING.

In order to celebrate the anniversary of the riot and outrages which were committed in the West End after the Socialist meeting held in Trafalgar Square on February S last year, a number of Socialists had pro posed to organise a procession, which was to have met on Clerkenwell Green on February 8, and to have marched, bearing touches, through the principal streets of the WostEnd. OnthefactcomingtoSirC. War ren's knowledge, anotice was promptly issued prohibiting the procession, and precautions wore taken to provent disorder. Between sovon and eight o'clock on the eveniDg named somo two or throe hundred persona assembled on the Green, and their numbers within the next hour wero augmented to something like two thousand. Some of the crowd attempted to ent6r St. James's Church, where a service was being held, but were prevented by the police, several hundreds of whom were present, mounted and on foot. A number of speeches of the usual violent character were delivred from the baEe of the fountain op posite the Sessions Houso, but there was no disorder during the meeting, all at tempts to light the tourches carried being quickly frustrated by the police. But after the meeting there was rioting in the streets, attended with serious destruction of pro perty. The greater part of themob went their way in a peaceable manner; but one por tion, numbering about 300 boys and young men, proceeded by way of Alesbury-street and Compton-street into the Goswell Road, where a stone was thrown at a large plate glass window belonging to a baker, com pletely smashing it. This was followed by the throwing of several more atones, doing more or lets damage to the windows passed by the turbulent and noisy mob, which naturally increased in numbers. In Aldersgate- street, how ever, where they managed to do some mischief, they met with a determined resis tance on the part of several plain-clothes city policemen, which ended in the arrest, after a smart tussle, of two of the ring leaders, who were subsequently charged before the magistrate with riotous conduct, and with inciting those present in the crowd to break windows.

SUPREME COURT.- CIVIL SESSIONS.

(Boforo His Honor Mr Justice Ward.) Fred. John Hopkins v. George Srj.vr teu —Mr Napier appeared for the plaintiff and Mr Earl for tho defendant, instructed by Messrs tiislop and Crengh, Oamaru. At the request of Mr Earl all the witnesses were ordered out of Court. This was a claim for £S7 13s 9d, being damages incurred by breach of contract in a certain transaction in flour between the plaintiff and defendant, the former of whom is an agent in Auckland, the latter being a flour merchant at Oamaru.—-Mr Napier, in opening his caee, said that tho plaintiff's claim was founded on tho fact that tho defendant sold him 20 tons of flour at £10 109 per ton, on which he had paid £204 15s in first cost, freight, charges, etc. The flour delivered boing inferior to that bought only fetched £145 18s sd, the loss to plain tiff therefore being £87 13s9d,the amount of claim. In tho first instance Mr Hopkins acted as agent in the sale of the flour,, but when the defendant re fused Mr Jowett, the customer offered by Mr Hopkins, tho latter gentleman then became actually purchaser. — Frederick John Hopkins, plaintiff, gave evidence of having instructed hie clients, Sumpter and Co , of Oamaru; as to a certain 20 tons of flour. When the flour arrived it was not good When he complained to .the Oamaru firm he received in reply a letter from their solicitors—A number of lette a were then read which had passed between tho plaintiff and defendant, in which tho lormer hot only pointed oiit tho fault ho I found with tho flour, but as a practical j miller himself showed tho cause of the simo ■ was bad milling,—ln cross examination by Mr Bnrl withoea said that Mr Jowett must j havo had tho flour in his sore more than a I week before he told witness of its bad quality. Witness would not tabo any i man's opinion upon the flour unless it was tested by a brst-claas baker.

BURNING OF THE STEAMER RAIATEA.

Audition:.! Particulars

Amongst the passengers by the steamer Janet Nicoll which arrived here this morn ing was Mr T. C. Johnson, of the firm of Messrs Crawford and Company of San Fran cisco. Mr Johnson wa. ono of the passengers in the ill-fated French mail steamer, Raiate., which was burned at sen on tho 13th March last, about 100 miles from the Puumotu Islands. In addition to the information previously published we learri that the disaster was of a very sudden and alarming character. Tho fire, which ended in the total destruction of tho steamer, broke out in tho engineer's quartora and when discovered had such a firm hold on tho ship .hatallhopeo.savingherwasalmost immediately aban oned. Amongst her cargo were several thousand cases of kero sene, and tho knowledge of the fact makes everyone anxious to get clear of the vessel as speedly as possible. The outbreak having occurred at 2 o'clock in the morniog, tho pasßengors were in bed and had to be roused withiut ceremony, there being on board altogether twenty-four persons, including tho captain and crow. Boats wero lowered promptly, but the progress of the fire was co very rapid that they had to put off with nothing in tho shape of provisionn except ing n little wator and a few biscuits Tho passengers had enly time to jump out of their bunks and got into tho boats, without attempting to clothe themselves and Mr Johnson, along with tho others left tho veSB.l claa in his night shirt only. Ono passenger Brill, a Hollonder, was somewhat delatory in getting out of bis cabin and had to be pulled bodily through one of the portholes. All hands having boen got into the boata they shoved off from tho steamer and left her in a mass of flames, It was on the 13th that the steamer was abandoned and on the following day Brill died from exposure, hia decoase having boen ac celerated by heart disease and excitement, the captain decided to make for Paunoto, 200 miles distant, and the boat arrived there at 2 p m. on the the 17th, being fortunately been favoured with moderately good weather. The passengers and crew were by this time almost starving, and they wore promptly cared for by tho inhabitants.

Among the cases to be heard at the Supreme Court this session is the claim of W. Blandon v. the Mayor and Cor poration, for £250. Mr Blandon, it will be remembered, obtained a judg ment for £250 for damages done by the city to his property near Wellesley- Btreet school. The Corporation had the option of either paying the money or filling in the land to the satisfaction of the assessors. The Council, in their wisdom, elected to fill in, and spent about £400 on the work, retaining the earth with a wooden breastwork. With this, neither Mr Blandon nor hia assessor are satiffied ; hence the present suit.
