We have had the pleasure of inspecting at Mr. Upton's, Queen-street, the baton and caskets presented to Michael Quinn, Bandmaster lSt^i &.T., by the Auckland Choral Society. The whole affair is a most elegant present, and will, we have no doubt, be highly prized by }.lr. Quinn. The illumination, which is exquisitely done, has been executed by Mr. T. Hall, the baton made by Mr. Teutenbcrg, oi Wellesley-street, and the casket by Mr. Seufert. At the bottom of the handle of the baton is a splendid specimen of Thames quartz, richly studded with gold. The casket is manufactured of mottled kauri, and inlaid with New Zealand wood. The address and case are lined with purple velvet, and altogether it is amos magnificent and costly present. Yesterday, two anniversary sermons were preached in the Primitive Methodist Church, Edwardes street—that in the morning by the Eev. J.
