An address to waterside workers and others was delivered in Quay street, Auckland, at lunch hour on Thursday by the Anglican City Missioner, Mr Arthur P. Cowie. The speaker took for hia sub-, jeot the remarks of our Lord bearing on the sins of this world. When reading the only real explanation of all sin, dissension, strife and false ministrations, as contained in the third chapter of Genesis, could be traced the reason for so much unrest In the world, as being the result of man withdrawing his love which should bo for the Creator, and adhering to the advice and; government of Satan and hia host of agencies which are scattered throughout the world. Man loved to theorise, when a practical knowledge of God and His ways would lead to tho betterment of every social condition. The speaker was listened to with marked attention. FOG AT WELLINGTON.
