Williamson (Poverty Bay); auditor, Mr E. Bueholz ; secretary and treasurer, Mr C. J. Crawford (Wellington). A correspondent writes as follows to the Whangarei Advocate:—With partisan nominee Land Boards and subservient Crown Land rangers to operate on the leaseholders of the different electorates, the present political party can be maintained in power indefinitely, or until natural decay breaks them up. Few leaseholders or Crown tenantß can afford, or have enough backbone, to vote against the wishes of the party in power. This is a force that must be reckoned with in any future struggle. That, with judicious expenditure of money from a party point of view to crash out any independence or refractory spirit that may crop up, will be most effective. Future demands and punishments we may look forward to. At the Dannevirke S.M. Court yesterday morning Hung Chung was charged under the Shops and Offices Act" with keepiDg open after 6 p.m on March 10. The defence was that the defendant was not a naturalised British subject. Therefore he did not come under the definition of " occupier " and was not obliged to close. Mr James, 8.M., held that the limitation of the term " occupier " to a British subject, in Clause 21, only applied to the computation of the majority or shopkeepers who sign a requisition and did not exclude aliens from their obligation to close. As the Gazetta notice covered all shops Dannevirke, a fine of 6s was imposed. The Bench agreed to state a caße for appeal if " requested. At the meeting of the AucklandFoot- the effete British lord. (Consequently, when one or the other of them comes out here, and finds that he doesn't get the hnmble attention and grovelling service the Seddonite advertisements led him to expect, he writes a savage letter to the newspapers. Recently we had the remarkable effusion of Miss Benham, who was furiously angry because she couldn't monopolise the guides at Mount Cook without paying for them, and now we have the excited remarks of Lord Ennismore, who didn't Bucceed in shooting any deer in the Wairarapa, and says the Government ought to provide standing camps for the tourist and that he is "very disappointed at the way things are managed." Evidently this British peer has the prevailing impression thatit is the duty of this country to spend its time looking after him and arranging picnics for him. For which state of mind on the part of the tourist this disgusted colony has to thank its " Government. " democratic The lunatic who escaped from the Auckland Asylum gave his pursuers a lively chase at Matutura, on the West Coast. The constableand asylum attendant who went engaged in the search came across the esoapee on the beach. He was filling a bottle of water at a creek, and happening to glance up the cliff, saw his would-be captors concealed, and immediately made off to a bush extending for about a quarter of a mile up the road. He thus got a start of about 200 yards. Constable O'Grady and Mr Muir followed,but on reaching the spot where the fugitive entered they found the bush there was almost impassable, and over three hours elapsed before they were able to penetrate to the farthermost point, when they endeavoured to find their bearings. They saw the escapee, concealed amongst a clump of flax upon the cliff above them. The constable called upon him to surrender, but he did not reply. He rolled stones down, some weighing over a cwt. The pursuers then drew theirrevolvers, firing four shots immediately over White's head. This had the desired effect, for White then threw up his hands, and came down the cliff and surrendered. The man had a complete camp and a good supply of food,chiefly mussels, whioh he oooked. He had singed his hair to disguise himself. To hide his tracks he had gone on his hands and knees and he stated that had he not been forced to go abroad for water he would have been found. He intended tonever wait until search had been given up and then cross to Sydney, One price for each line, many lines ai SHOT AND ROBBED.

Sib,—In reading your strictures in yesterday's issue 'on the Wanganui Education Board, I was struck with their great soundness—with their greater truth. It would perhaps be interesting to know what happened to that unhappy bunch of pupil teachers from Campbell street school, whose promo tion (?) caused such an unwarrantable change in the staff. Well, Sir, they were sent at the ripe and inexperienced age of seventeen or eighteen, by the generosity of the board, to take charge of schools in the far away backblooks. One was sent, willing or unwilling, to a plaoe near Euapehu, and finding that the prospect of teaching at a school where the Maoris held predominance over the whites was uot sufficiently inviting to warrant his foregoing all studies, etc., he asked to be allowed to remain a pupil teacher until his term of pupil teachership had expired. His request was ignored, and there being no remedy he sent in his resignation, which was accepted much to his delight. Parents having children who desire to become teaohera have to assist them with board and clothes, and do so in the hope that they are gathering knowledge and experience in lieu of a respectable salary; but before their term has expired they are disposed of as above stated. Is it any wonder that teachers are scarce '? Will it not be a greater wonder if they are not yet scarcer ? The Wanganui Board seems to manipulate the reins of (mis)management which our system affords to a remark able degree. However, in passing judgment pro bono publico, let us not forget that they have some handicaps to start with, being, like Shakespeare's heroes, all honorable men."—! am, etc., A Posteriori. : " RECENT STABBING AFFRAY.
