Reeves, who was present, addressed a few remarks to the shippers, the Wellington Meat Export Company. His words were spoken into a phonograph, and tne wax cylinder is now on its way to New Zealand. I As there has been a notioable change in the weather the last few days, we are reminded that a change in clothing and dress will soon be necessary. With regard to Dress Goods, Millinery, Fur Be«s, Fur Capes, Mackintoshes Mantles, Gloves, etc., we are obliged to have these imported, but heavy woollen goods such as Blankets, Flannels, Tweeds.

Mr Newton Jones has kindly consented to address a public meeting to be held under the auspices of the Sunday School Union to-morrow evening in the Mary-street Church at 8 o'clock. A.B the rev, gentleman is an earnest and effective . speaker it is anticipated that this special ■ meeting will be largely attended. , ! A distressing aoeident occurred about 430 o'clock on Friday afternoon at the Northern Roller Company's mill, Auckland. i As the sacks were being wound up to an

other storey in the mill one slipped from the oh.iv and fell on one of the workers, Norman McCorquodale, thu youngest son of Mr Alex. McCoi quodal", m nager of the mills. The resuH of this unfortunate occurrence was that the young man's leg was fr&c ured telowthe knee. Dr. Sharmanset the limb and the sufferer removed to the residence of his father. The Rev. J. Mackenzie, M.A.. yesterday initiated a new series of services at 'I araru. A fair number of residents joineil the 50h01.11* and teache-s at 315 p.m and the rev. gentleman conducted a short preaching service which was evidently appreciated. It is ii - tended to hold ihese uu.ted services on the last Sunday in each month, so that'Taraiu people will now have two opportunities of public worship, as the Rev. Dr O'Calla^han preaches every second Sunday in the month This paper is almost per.-uaded to be an Anarchist. If Anarchy would merely bring about the destruction of all law in so far as mining matters are concerned, then any respectable outlaw or Nihilist bringing along a subscription list for that purpose can rely on the Gazette heading it. 80 far as we can see, the only thing against payable mining in Ohinemuri is the mining law. —Ohinemuri Gazeite, A Wellington telegram states: "It is said that fhilpott admitted to several persons that bis story of killing Hawthorne durin« a quarrel about a woman was untrue. From ttatements made to the gaol officials it appears that he originally intended to plead guilty to manslaughter, and represent that he shot Hawthorne in a fit of passion, but altered his mind and to?k his chance on the capital charge. He killed Hawthorne in the afternoon, but did not bury the body until 1 o'clock in the morning in the moonlight, using no lantern. There seems no reason to doubt his motive wa3 to obtain money and goods in his mate's possession."

In the absence of the Pastor (Rev. W. R. Woolley) th<* Key. Mr Newlo 1-Jones, Evangelist of the London Sunday School f nion occupied the Mary street pulpit yesterday morning and evening The morning discourse was based upon the latter part of the sth chapter of Paul's 2nd Epistle to the Corinthians, and the rev. gentleman emphasised the ten characteristics of the Christian life as indicated therein He showed that when a man became a Christian he had a new standing even in Jesus Christ; a new nature, old things having passed away ; a new attitude brought about by his reconciliation to Gol through Chri t ;a new object in life, namely no longer to live to self, but unto Him who died for him ; the power to attain this object was the new in. inhabitant, which was the earnest of the Spirit, All his future life was controlled by a new motive power for tho love of God constrained him, prompting a de ire to woik foi 1 God because ' forgiven u.uch.' This in its turn resulted in a new way for walking, that wai by faith and not by sight. He reminded his borers that every Christian had a new responsibility, for the word of reconciliation was committed to him to pays on to others, ><nd concluded by pointing out the new service— ambassador for Christ. In the ooutse of his remarks he deplored the luck of home training and influence which he did not lvsitate to conrle.nn in no immeasuted terms as the chief cause of juvenile depravity and immorality so common, so generally deplored and bj generally left unchecked. In the evening a large congregation assembled. '1 he preacher took »s his text " Look unto me and be ye saved," and held his hearers' closest attention, while he i delivered a most earnest evangelistic ad- I dress. During the evening the preacher sang a solo, " When ihe roll is call d up yonder." I

A veky fine specimen of salmon trout was received from Rotorua by a Hamilton resident on W. dnerday. The ftsh turned the eoale at 19Jib, at,d was in excellent condition. Some few weeks ago (says the Waikato Argus) several Jarj:e con«gnmeuts of trout from Rotorua pa. sed over the line for the Auckland market, and should the efforts of the Auckland Acolimatuation Society in stocking the head waters of the "Wmpa and Wsikato rivers prove as successful, as we all could wish, we may look ferwaro to a considerable business being done in supplementing the Auckland fish market from the Upper Waikato district.

JL>r. W. B. Burfi, Oakland, Ma., writes: - " I emloy Sander & Sons Pure Voiati'e Eucalypti Extract as - a local application in chronic inflammations and rheumatic paints; internally in nephritic as well as in pulmonary gastric and catarrh. It is sometimes litfioult to obtain the genuine article. I employed different other preparation!-, they had uo therapeutic value and no efleot. In one case the effects were similar to the oil camphora, ihe objectionable aotion of which is well known."—This is certdtnly a most evidence of the superiority of thia excellent preparation over any other.—lnsist getting Sander & Sons Eucalypti Extraot, or else you will be supplied with worthless oils. \BVT."I
