Enid Egliuton, the beloved infant daughter of W. W. and J. Henderson, age 6 weeks. West Coast Times. TUESDAY, MARCH 7, 1893. In a recent decision by Justice Collins of Winchester, Assizes, he made a precedent and the way of those who wish to be divorced from each other is made smooth. The circumstances were peculiar. A man and his wife did not agree. But the wife was regarded with loying eyes by another man. The husband, getting to know of this, offered to sell his wife for $130, which one of the other man agreed to pay, and did pay. He then married the woman who had been sold to him. The seller, to complicate matters, married another woman. The police decided that the man who sold his wife and the wife who was sold should both be prosecuted for bigamy, and prosecuted they were. The trial, as stated, took place before Mr Justice Collins. It was shown that the sale of the wife was formally set out in a formidable-looking document of legal aspect, and that all the parties knew of the terms and agreed to them. The Judge, under those circumstances, decided that nobody could have been possibly deceived, since all were aware of the facts, and that as nobody had been injured there was no need that anyone should be punished. Great interest has recently been aroused in Masonic articles throughout the colony, due to a very able letter appearing in the Ottawa Daily Times, and, subsequently, in the Neio Zealand Herald, in which the position occupied by the so-called "Grand Lodge of New Zealand" is criticized in very great terms, reflecting great credit upon the writer for his lucid exposition of the state of Masonic affairs in New Zealand since the revolt in the time-honored institution, which took place nearly three years ago. The occasion which called forth the review arose out of the fulsome and self-laudatory address of the so-called Grand Master, a Brother Niccol of Auckland, at the recent meeting of this well-advertised body in Dundee, for it must be borne in mind that it is an instrument Grand Lodge, and pays a periodical visit to the chief cities at very great cost to the institution, something like £2000 having already been disposed of since its 'grand' inauguration, in thus stumping the Masonic Country. The writer remarks in one portion of his letter "that through the ignorant, till advised, and indiscreet actions of a few, the body styling itself the "Grand Lodge of New Zealand" is a miserable imitation of what should have been, and does not even carry the respect of its own members, who secretly snooL* at and run down their own rules, but in meeting are afraid to open their mouths." Referring to Brother Niccol the writer proceeds — If you and your followers had any Freemasonry at heart, you could long ago have shown it by adopting the proper honest manly course of confessing your errors — returning all warrants not your property, and trying by tact, civility, and moderation to act for the good of. Free masonry iv General. This might have had some good effect in securing freedom; at any rate, you would have done your duty before all men. But to commence and continue a system of bullying and coercion was, and is, un-British, un-Christian, and un-Christianlike." The writer also remarks on Bro. Niccols' address "that it is of a sugary nature but rather this compared with previous "Grand Lodge" utterances, but evincing a disposition to try and tone things down, and be if possible more respectful in the future to his neighbours. Ux-tus Pstaa Aasoci^TioK — UoprnianT AUSTR A L I AN NEWS. Sydney, March 6. Four principals of a prize fight have been arrested, owing to the death of one of the contestants. Yesterday great damage was done in the Bowral (50 miles south of Sydney) and Moss Vale districts (83 miles south of Sydney) by floods. The inches of rain fell in eight hours. Melbourne, March 6. On Saturday, three miners named O'Brien, Ghnville and Howard were killed owing to the premature explosion of a charge in a mine at Bendigo. The bodies were terribly mutilated. (Received, March 7, 12:50 a.m.) Sydney, March 6. The river is broken up and heavy thunderstorms are general throughout the colony. The Pemier has decided the time has come for repressive legislation. Melbourne, March 6. A rich flood has been discovered near Wangaratta. Fifty-five tons of stone yielded 4970s gold. The Enterprise Building Society has lost over three thousand pounds upon the year's work and depositors have been invited to consider the position. Our North Island contemporaries have been felicitating themselves and each other, on the great relative strides they have made in the volume of their import and export trades, and especially in the former. We are furnished with statistics showing that the North Island, instead of being the poor dependent on its richer southern brother, is now actually paying him in the race for material prosperity. In these returns, which we published a few days ago, it is noticeable that only in the imports does the North beat the South, whilst in the export returns the gold, of which about three-quarters is produced in the South, is left out. The larger volume of imports may be ascribed to many reasons other than that which is sought to be given as the only one. For instance, Wellington may already claim to be the commercial capital of New Zealand. Owing to its central position it has a large business with both Islands, and the imported goods it to residents of this Island, are included in the North Island returns. This cause has been operating for a long time to swell the North Island returns, but the chief influence at work there just now is the rapid advance made in settlement. At no time in the history of the country has settlement progressed at so rapid a rate as in the North Island returns. At no time in the history of the country has settlement progressed at so rapid a rate as in the North Island returns. In Canterbury and Otago. Of course, there will still be vast areas in the North Island still available for settlement and the time may come, as a meeting of the Hokitika Barbor Board will be held this evening at half past seven. Probably many of our readers whose affairs have taken them up in Weld Street have noticed the large number of giant sunflowers growing in Mr. E. Whale's garden. He cut one that was seeding yesterday which measured 13 inches in diameter and contained 4492 seeds, easily ascertained by the regular order of the rows. English Freemasons during the past year eclipsed all their previous efforts in aid of charity. The three principal institutions — the Royal Benevolent, the Boys' and the Girls' Schools— received the enormous total of £90,475 3s sd. The first received £01,849 2s 6d, the second £15,837 18s 10d, and the third £12,778 2s Id. The Grey Star says that Mr. Guinness has received a telegram from Mr. Seddon stating that he will visit the Coast about Easter when it is just possible he will address the electors at the various centers of population. Attention is directed to Messrs. Pollock & Bovan's sales this day. At noon they sell 16 boxes prime Taranaki butter, and at half -past two Cassidy and Clarke's paddocks, Upper Gibson's Quay, and Kortegast's brewery and plant. All three sales will take place at their rooms, Wharf street. Although the Chicago World's Fair is not yet open, the memorial coins are already to the fore. Mr. Fowler has one of these, a description of which we gave some weeks ago. It can scarcely be called an artistic production. The County Council notify that the electoral rolls for the current year, and which will be used at the County elections next November, will be compiled on the 1st April. Persons whose rates are unpaid on the 31st March will be placed on the defaulters' list. Holders of Miners' Rights will not appear on the rolls unless their Miners' Rights are in force on the 31st March. Says an exchange: — A native girl, six years of age, named Ruripete, daughter of Ihaka, fell into a boiling spring near Rotorua on Saturday afternoon, and was fatally scalded from the breast to the feet, the skin coming off before she could be pulled out of the water. The poor little creature died in the evening, and must have suffered great agony. The spring in question is situated near the Lobster Bath, quite close to the footpath. The unfortunate girl was following her mother, and is supposed to have turned round and walked backwards into the spring which is one of those used for cooking food, but is now, of course, tapped. Lord Charles Scott, the late Admiral commanding on the Australasian station, is understood to have forfeited a good share of the heritage which would otherwise have come to him under the will of his father, the late Puke of Buccleich, owing to what the latter regarded as his mesalliance in marrying a Melbourne young lady of the name of Ryan, whose father is the well-known stock and station agent of that city, and her brother Dr Byan, of Plevna fame. A correspondent informs us (Taranaki News) that a general mix-up occurred at the celebration of a marriage ceremony in this district recently. Before the ceremony had concluded, the blushing bride, noticing the minister pause, lifted her veil. The cual lengue was accepted, by the bridegroom and the process of osculation was satisfactorily performed. The organist noticed the boney business and volleyed forth the "Wedding March." The parson was at sea for a moment, but he rallied, and issued an injunction to the organist to desist, which injunction was accepted without appeal. But now the spectators spoiled matters by squirting rice over the ugly hitched, and the minister became nearly frantic, he tried to choke off the waste of the Chinese delicacy, and was just becoming successful when the organist thought it was time to take another hand, Mendelsohn poured his soothing soul over the congregation, but he didn't afford the minister much relief. Eventually, the spectators were righted, and the ceremony proceeded to a finish, much to the relief of the convicts of Hymen, who, although they had mortgaged the customary kissing bliss, didn't care one jot, but went through the performance again with as much verve as if The time-honored gauno was a decided novelty. Over the colonies. Seeing no good was to be A correspondent forwards the Westport News some items of interest bearing upon Australia's expedition continued in letter from a friend of his, who had been only too glad to send his way back again to New Zealand, after an absence of about nine months in Australia. During this period his trip was successful. Melbourne, Sydney, and several inland country towns, and attended many agricultural shows in both Victoria, and New South Wales, and being a man of the world, of shrewd business abilities and powers of observation, we append a few of his impressions. He says: "You cannot imagine the state of things over there. Up country men were working for £23 a week and their tucker, and thousands are walking about all done there, I made up my mind to return to New Zealand. A buggy, harness, and pony, which cost £24, had to be sacrificed for £7 10s in the Sydney taleyurda, and one could have bought dozens of traps of all descriptions for anything you liked to offer for cash. A four horse coach, fit to travel over any road-way, sold for £6, and a splendid buggy for a pair of thoroughbred horses, and silver-plated harness, only realized. £120; the horses cost £80 alone, so no one has previously been there." The writer says: "I have been there for some time, and there are thousands of unemployed till over the country. I am glad to be back." On again in New Zealand, as here there is a chance of getting tucker, whilst over there it was doubtful. The Eceiton Guardian says:—The total amount of gold secured by the Alexander dredge during the month of February was 8502s 13dwlu. The dredge was working only 305 hours, the rest of the time being occupied in shifting the maoliine from its previous position to the bottom of the claim. The result is a very good one and we learn that there are good prospects of the yield being maintained. The dredge has started work on a deep and bank and most of last month's return was obtained from this. Conference was arranged by the Fire Brigades' Union. The Labor leaders think it is hope less to look to Gladstone to legislate on the eight hours' question. The Ruhrino will make a stay often days at Capetown for the purpose of repairing the damage which was caused by a fire which broke out in one of her holds after she left London for the colonies. About twenty percent of the Pakebvn Townville beef was damaged - Consignees complain that the facilities in the colony for testing frozen meat before it is shipped are inefficient owing to the conflicting interests of shipowners and shippers. Little progress is being made at the Conference which is sitting to consider the bills of lading question. In her article in the Times on New South Wales, Miss Shaw (who visited Australia some months ago in the interests of that journal) says that owing to a sense of corporate action, Cabinet responsibility in the colony is too slight. The country is covered with superfluous and unproducing works which were built out of the public revenue. The civil service, which is encumbered with officials who are not required, needs to be reorganized. The reorganization is also necessary in the system of national bootkeeping, a change being vitally urgent in order to enable the Treasurer to control the expenditure. Conservative enterprise in the colony is now conducted under the political direction and either a more autocratic Government or a better method is required to put things in the colony on a more satisfactory footing. Judge Gibson, of the Queen's Bench Division, Ireland, has Bevarely commented on the difficulty of securing Justices for County Limerick. An angry debate has taken place in House of Lords respecting the state of affairs in Clare which also formed the subject of a heated debate in the Lower House on Thursday.

A severe earthquake was experienced at Sandgate, The gas mains were severed in the roadway and the sea wall cracked, and upwards of one hundred houses were damaged by the shock.

France concedes the minimum tariff to Ounada on fruit, tin-seed meats, and cheese, in return for equivalent concessions. It is reported that Arton, who is implicated in the Panama case, has been arrested in Vienna. Washington, March 5. Mr. Grover Cleveland was installed President of the United States yesterday. His inaugural address insists on the vital importance of sound and staple currency, and hopes prudent legislation will remedy the present difficulties. In the meantime, the executive will use all its powers to maintain the national credit and avert disaster. The President deprecates payment of bounties and subsidies, and reckless waste of millions in pensions which are, the bone of Republican institutions. The wrongs inflicted by the McKinley tariff must be rectified, though the work must be undertaken wisely and without vindictiveness. President Cleveland also blames his Government will grapple with commercial and economic difficulties, and coineis inimical to the welfare of the people.

Turnbull, Martin and Co., are about to start a monthly line of steamers in New Zealand. They are building two fast ten thousand ton boats for the frozen meat trade. Lord Salisbury has been elected president of the British Association for the Advancement of Science for 1894. Secretary of the Treasury. Our contemporaries predict, when its population and material wealth will exceed ours, should such a time arise we will be pleased to congratulate them because of prosperity they experience must respect upon ourselves. More especially will it do good in increasing the market for our coal, and if they are so busy destroying their forests in order to grow grass, ours on the West Coast must increase in value in proportion. Probably in calculating the future industrial wealth of these islands our contemporaries have overlooked the vast mineral wealth on this same West Coast. We are confident the Coast will yet re-occupy the industrial position it formerly held in the country if it does not greatly exceed it. The indications everywhere are too numerous and too clear to leave any doubt. It seems as if industrial activity always comes in cycles, and in time, when the wheel has performed the required number of revolution, our turn will again come. Still, sticking to our text, we might remark that such a happy state of affairs would still further increase North Island returns as Wellington would largely participate in our good fortune. Still, the Moon, a quarter of a quarter of a quarter, is the quarter of a quarter. H. Schroder and Son are prepared to purchase ladies' old umbrellas for repairing purposes.
