AUCKLAND AND TARANAKI.

CONSTRUCTION OF A BRANCH RAILWAY.

AUCKLAND REPRESENTATIVES-

URGED TO ACTION.

At an influential meeting of tho Auckland Chamber of Commerce held yesterday after-

noon one of the most important matters under consideration was a proposal to urge upon the' Government the immediate necessity of connecting Taranaki with tho main trunk lino of railway now hi course of construction.

Mr A. H. Nathan (chairman), in intro ducing the subject, remarked that it was one of the utmost impor tance to Auckland, and also to the whole colony. He had no doubt that mem bers of the Chamber had noticed that the main trunk railway had received consider able attention in the papers, and in the Evening Star particularly. The present state of aflhirs was as follows : —A portion of the main trunk line had been finished, and it was now within 84 miles of Taranaki. It was fimoob point,and wasdeservingof con sideration,whether or nob it would be batter for the Government to carry tho line right through to Wellington,ndistanco of 210 miles and through almost uninhabitable country, and at considerable lo;-3 to the colony. The matter required consideration from a monetary point of view. At present, Wellington had the advantage of us in that direction, being in full connection with Taranaki and all intermediate places along that coast, and with a small proportion ou the other coast. He would ask Mr Aickin, who had a better acquaintance with the subject, to place additional information before the Chamber.

Mr Graves Aickin said that the Chairman had put tho matter very well and forcibly. He would move, " That this Chamber strongly urges on the Government the ad visability of taking steps at once for the construction of a branch railway to Tara naki, connecting with the main trunk lino now in progress, and farther that in its opinion the main trunk connection with Morton should be postponed until rail way connection with Taranaki has been effected." A blunder had been com mitted no doubt, but it was not too late to amend what had been done. The Chamber was well acquainted with the action taken*by the Hon. Mr Mitchelson in the matter of the main trunk railway. Mr Mitchelson:s action had been very ad versely commented upon. Since then they were aware that Wellington had gotfull con nection with Taranaki on 0110 .side of the island and with Napier on tho other. The eflect of this was that Wellington business men were placed at a great advantage over tho Auckland merchants, owing to the in creased facilities afibrded by railway exten sion. It was not, fortunately, too late to undo what had been done. The main trunk contract had been let only as far as a little beyond To Kuiti, and a little below that it could now be connected with Stratford without in any way interfering with the plans cf the late Government. All that wo asked was that a branch line should be con structed at once, giving us communication with New Plymouth. The main trunk line Could bo gone on with subsequently, and this arrangement would give the_ Govern ment time to look around and provide funds for completion of the main trunk. Mr 0. 0. McMillan seconded the resolu tion. He said he knew of no greater injury that could be done to Auckland than that the government should resolve tp con tin no the construction of tho nit; in trunk line rather than a branch line to Taranaki. Although Mr MitehcL.;oii had advocated the main trunk lino in a, way that had met with disapproval here, he (tho speaker) was of opinion that Mr 'sTitchelson's idea was that the two lines should bemadeimmediately. Eeulsobclicved that in tho present impecunious condition of the colony it was quite impossible to construct both linen, and it would have to bo considered which line was most likely to be best suited to tho advantage of our commercial interests. As far as money went, a branch line to Taranaki in the place of the immediate completion of tho main trunk line would mean a very large saving to the colony. There was no matter of greater importance to us, and he hoped that the Auckland members would beumtcd in urging their claims and demanding that they should be recognised. He would Bug ae.4 the addition of the words. ''That a copy of this resolution bo forwarded to all the Auckland members " to Mr Aickin s re solution. Mr Aickin agreed to tho addition. Mr 8. Vaile said he had very great plea sure in supporting the resolution. It would probably be within tho recollection of some of the members that this question was before the Chamber some two years aero when the previous speaker and him self draw down upon themselves much odium for the determined stand they had made with regard to this route. He said at that time that he would rather sco no railway at all than that a through lino should be made to Wellington. It was no real help to Auckland, and it was a burden to the whole colony. The line ought never to have been taken through in the ia-st nlare i it should havo gone via Stratford. L far aa Auckland was concerned, it would now be a great mistake to continue that main trunk" railway, and it ought certauily to bo stopped as soon as ib got to le lunti. The branch line to Taranaki could be irried out with the fund. now Sable and the other could stand Sver To? some time. He desired to draw Os?ki which led straight^ Wdhngtotj They had thus annexed the trade ot all these paces and had left Auckland out in Scold, and now they actually proposed to annox Auckland. If we allowed it to be done wf would deserve all we got, and he hoped tfaaft every possible effort would be made to maintain our interests. Several other gentlemen spoke very forcibly in the same strain, and the motion on being put to the meeting was earned unanimously.

WRECK OF THE DERRY CASTLE.

THE STORY OF THE SURVIVORS,

! Tins is a thrilling story of the sea. Not one of ■ thoso that the Mftrryatts, Coopers, and Clark Russells have evolved, but a truo tale of misery, suffering, peril : of eight strong men cast away on a desolate island for more than a third of a your, enduring | and lighting hardships which are shudder ing to relate. .There arrived recently at the port of Mel bourne, after a tempestuous voyage, a small sailing schooner of bub 43 tons,' the Awarua, bringingwith her thesurvivors of the barque Derry Castle, eight strange-looking beings, in clothing of strangest description ; hats made of birds' feathers, boots made of seal skins, their hair long and unkempt, arid their fanes covered with thick beards. Such men arc; not given to exaggeration. Let them tell their story :— We sailed from the portoi Geelong, Ans., on the 10th of March last in the 1 terry Castle, an iron bar-quo of 1,267 tons, with 17,300 bags of wheat, for Fa!mouth, Eng. She was | commanded by Captain Goiie, and had a ; crew of 2a oflicevs and men and o;io |i;i;v:; en- j per on board. Early on the morning of the 20th March, with all .sails set and the ves sel making 12 knots an hour, she ran full head on to Knderby Island, one of the Auck land Islands, .some 200 miles youth of New Zealand. Five minutes after she struck she commenced, to set tie, head down, heavy seas broke over her, and the mon were either washed overboard or jumped into the tempestuous sea lashing the rock-bound coast, which could now bo seen not inord than 200 yards distant. Eight—the passenger and .seven seamen—managed to reach the shore, scantily clad, cut, bruised and bleeding, but the remainder of the 22 j souls perished in the waves. Daylight I brought with it now horrors, for pointed out by tha ravenous sen hawks ghastly sighta were seen. Among the seaweed at the foot of the elms the captain, chief ofiicer, and an able seaman lay dead, mutilated not only by the suri and cruel rocky, bub by the savage sea hawks as well. The bodies were tenderly borne to shallow graves by the men who were themselves in living graves and given kindly sepulture. The survivors were in a most deplorable condition ; they | had neither fire, nor food, except shell-fish, which was very scarce, and but little covering, while autumn hud set in, and winter was approaching in a bleak southerly latitude. The men suil'orod severely from rheumatism and pains in their kidneys, caused by their feet being continually cold and1 wet from contact: with tho marshy ground. .A thatched hut of grass was built, and in this the castaways huddled for warmth. After being without lire for ten days, the passenger bethought himself of a pistol cartridgo he had in his pocket; the bullet was extracted, a hole made in a board» and the precious cartridge inserted, its lower portion being filled with frayed rags. Bight men stood around to watch the outcome. ■ Their hearts beat wildly, they quivered with excitement, and it Was a long time anyone dare strike the blow which was to decide their fate. At last tho rude hammer was raised, and | brought clown on the nail held on the fulmi nate of the cartridge. It exploded! the tiny flame caught tho linen, tho blaze spread, tw^gs were placed on, they crackled in a fierce joy and lib up the faces of the ship wrecked men, who fell on their knees in silent thankfulness. But tho reaction set in; a huge bonfire was builb and the men danced about it like veritable schoolboys. Never before had a lire meant so much to them. The gold of commerce was as dross beside it. Thereafter a watch wa.s told off, and constancy kept, and the lire guarded with jealous care. The sea cast up much wheat from the doomed vessel, and a large quantity of it was dried »nd stored for future use, which, with seal flesh and a few mussels, made up the daily fare. A part of an old axe, left by some former whalers, was found half buried in the sand. It was sharpened with stones and proved a veritable god-send, as the survivors then begun to construct a punt, believing that a cairn, containing, provisions for Shipwrecked sailors, was o'j. the main island some seven miles distant. From the bulkhead of tho vessel which had been driven ashore, the nails were carefully burned out, the wood saved, and tho work on tho punt proceeded. For two months tho sailors laboured on their little craft. The seams wore caulked with sealskin, and tho first of June saw ifc successfully launched. On the 9th June, Sullivan and Ronnie, volunteers, left their com rades, followed by their prayers, for the' main island ; and with thoir rough ■paddles sculled all day long and into the night when they reached tho longed-for shore, and, to their great; joy, found clothing, food, tea, sugar, salt, matches, tools, etc., in the cairn erected, by the Government of Few Zealand for tho relief of castaways. One by one the men were conveyed to the larger island. They still had no boots and suffered: greatly from cold —as snow-storms were not infrequent. On the 9th of July a sail was seen, and the little community was wild with delight. Signals were shown and at night fires were lighted, and all waited anxiously for the day ; with the light the sailors' eyes were nm.lo glad with the sight of the taut little craft, the Awarua, a New Zealand schooner, which had come down to the island for a whaleboatshe had left-some time before. Captain Drew and his men made the castaways more than welcome; and on the 2nd of August they left the inhospitable shore on which they had spent 136 days of an existence such as few men ever lived, to tall the story of. But. little more remains to bo told, On reading in the Melbourne press that the men were sufferin"- from rheumatism and kidney troubles', Messrs. H. H.Warner and Co., with characteristic generosity, at once sent to the Sailors' Home a supply of^ their Warner's safe cure and safe pills for the use of the afflicted seamen. After using the medicines, and being twice rescued—this time from pain and disease—tho grateful men unanimously sent the subjoined letter to the Messrs. Warner & Co., who value it most highly as a candid expression from honest hearts. Gentlemen,—We are very grateful to you for tho bottles of Warner's safe euro and safe pills you so generously presented to us on our arrivaHn Melbourne, when you became aware we were suffering from rheu matism and kidney difficulties, contracted through exposure while shipwrecked on the Auckland Islands. We have all used tho safe remedies with, the most gratifying- re sults In fact, we are now well. We can recommend with great confidence Warner's safe cure and Warner's safe pills for kidney disease and rheumatism, believing that •what these medicines have done for us they will do for others.— Gratefully yours, NICHOLAS WALLACE, JOHN HUSBAND, ■ F.

:\n" excellent programme was creditably _;o;ic through on Thursday evening at the

I vocal and instrumental entertainment ! yiven in ail of the funds of the Newton. Congregatiional Sunday-school, Edinburgh-street. Owing to the threaten ing aspect of tho weather and various counter attractions, the attend ance was not quito so large as the excellency •of the programme warranted the promoters in anticipating. MY Webb, of Oak House, Hobson - street, kindly lent a piano free of charge, which added consider ably to the success of the entertainment. Mr J. P. Hooton opened the proceedings by rendering in good style "Sonata No. 2'," Beethoven. Mr Keesing performed upon the violin tho difficult solo, "Swiss Air," -Mrs Rosscr accompanying upon the piano. Mr Alfred Ellyott gavoaplcasinjr solo upon the flute, "The Last Rose of Sum mer," and Mi" Gooke played upon tho violin "Tho Harp that once thro'Tara's Halls." "Selections from Hayden " was played by a stringed quartette composed by Messrs Cooke, Kecsing; Gentles and Windsor. This was very well received, and later in the evening the audience were favoured with another selection from the same gentlemen. Trios by male voices were sung by Messrs Hookey, Abel, and another, the piece chosen being " Silver Moonlight Winds are Blow ing," and "A Little Farm Well Tilled." The latter was encored. Mr Hookey sang "Tho Abbot" and "The Owl," Miss Mc- Donald accompanying on the piano and a gentleman playing a pleasing violin obli gato. Mr Airston was loudly applauded for a couple of recitations, "Out of tho Old House, Nancy," and " Love in a Balloon," both of which were delivered in excellent style. Mis;; Walker \ras very successful in the songs "London Bridge" and. "Come Back to Erin." The same may also be said of Miss Davis, who received considerable applause for tho beautiful solo "Children'a Home." The National Anthem concluded the entertainment.
