The programme to-night will be an entirety different oi?e. We 'quote the follovying extracts to show some of the tnar-vell-HW iwrers^powessed by Mr Ellis : — Tho TfoJson Cohvvd of August 18i.h, 1335, says:— Mr Wra. A.

Not only did Mr Sllis koop the attention of his audience rivetted during the lecture, but at the clo*»e he was very successful in his delineations. One gentlemen who is no strange.. 1 on ilia poliiicdl as well as the religious plat'crn hart his charncter very correcily sjivea by means of big hand writing. The " Golden ?,nv .4igi»« " 17th July, states that Mr EHis wan shown a piece of quartz taken from % vein in the Red Hill Company's crnnnd, which he psychometric-ally tested, he then drew a correct diasram (io wnich w.t d\n certify) of the country, also stating the linn> of rock met with in the woi'kin<r>. 9>'d noiating out the underlay of the re*'.

This was 'or goods supplied since the last bettlomeut between the parties. His Worship had no donbt a settlement, had been made between the parties, and*he could not aee how Mr Shaw could put in a, set-off }-fU;r such settlement. By hia supplying goods on plsimtiiTs account to 'he vr.lne of £8.---aud vi.'ceipflng same "by con lva," defendant acknowledged a claim. The qiietti*;n is whether O'Coonell «'-n recover ibo sum charged bv him for minding the j bhfi().

Tiro Nan'er Tc ? rerrrrp?t in an article entitled "Ta the Gallery " and specking of West Coast members 'says :— There below m is a davk svarthy man who hr.d the misfortane to enler <!ie House wiih a reputation ; he was the pride o* the West Coast last session wben be took his seat, he whs looked upon ns a H!<e!y leader of that fimpll party, and it w»h a tims wbon smaM parlies were in demand, and Mr Guinness was that leader. To-day the trentleman ban a K»c^ seat, be is nowhere, and tbe leadwhip of tbe .wJ-y is divided between Mr O'Conor, who speaks much, a ! fanlr, »ndMrMen!ea.'b, who speaks little, but who when he doesspe.»k, is very att^ntivolv lintenei to. So that one cannot belp tbinkin? that comwi op wi'h a refutation is a serious draw-back- -the old story anticipation eve;* exceeds realisation.
