The final heat of the Poverty Bay Rowing Club’s trial fours for Mr B. Cos’s trophies, resulted in MeGuffie’s crew defeating Sheen’s crew by half a length after a splendid contest. The N.Z. Herald on the Land Bill:—“In landlord-ridden countries it has been found imperative that the landlord should make the improvements, should own the improvements as well as the land, and rent them together to the farmer. Mr McNab, claiming to be progressive, argues loosely for a system which retains the landlord and which asks the tenant to make rile improvements, these remaining nominally his property. There is never any leakage from land t'o improvements, in valuations, but there is a perpetual and persistent leakage from improvements to land, in valuations, as every farmer knows. Unless the farmer is a freeholder he loses by this leakage, and cannot but lose even under an inconceivably perfect system of dual ownership. And why the objection to the freehold, to the simple and modern system of land tenure? Apparently the only objection is that when it was initiated its advantages were seen and seized upon by men who were able to form great estates, though why this should make freehold objectionable under conditions which prevent the formation of great estates, and which secure to the small farmer the land he lives on and by, is one of the mysteries of modern politics. Tho freehold, intelligently preserved from abuso, is the only system of land tenure which satisfies the farmer and encourages him in making the best use of land, for it is the only system which secures him from molestation, and from the complete or partial confiscation of the fruits of his labor. Mr. McNab, by the way, admittedly believes in the 'reehold for himself. It is only poor settlers, who have to go into the wilds with the axe, who are at present being offered a short-term loase.”

A story conies from Daylesford (says the Australasian), in which a local wrestling celebrity played a very second-rate part last week. Ihe person in question was in an hotel, and, being fairlv primed with Dutch courage, he began making himself a nuisance to a broad-shouldered, goodlooking, woll-set-up stranger, staying at the house for a holiday. “Come on. I’ll wrestle you for any amount.” “You’re not game to take me on,” and other bojlicose utterances for a time passed unheeded, till the stranger could stand it no longer, and, putting down his paper, ho quietly said, ‘“Well, come out into the back yard.” The challenger is a thicklyset, strong “colonial Italian,” and, squaring up for a grip, lie was collared by the stranger, and in rapid succession . twice his head, once his heels, onco his buttocks, and lastly his head again were put into a tub o' water. Then, placing his victim on his feet, the inoffensive-looking chastiser said, “I can find 50 men in Melbourne who could do the same for yon.” The Italian discovered a few minutes after that it was Clarence Weber champion wrestler), who had been staying in the town some three weeks, that lie had to tliank for the ducking.
