Says the Dunedia Times of the 12th inst:-— "The South Dunedin Borough Coucil held Us usual meeting lest evening, and more disgraceful behaviour than that exhibited by some of the raJepnyers who attended it, could hardly be imagined. During the whole of the time iho tramway question was b-irjg discussed by the Council, Iheae persona were anting in the most riotous manner. In vain did the Mayor call ihem fo order, appeal io their good eenee, and threaten them with lfgal proceedings. They only laughed at him, cballenpei him to fake whnt pro» ceeliogs be liked, and even uttered oalhs. Every lime a Councillor roso Io F{.eak in favor of trauiwayp, yells, hoofs, Red hisses assailed him on every aidi?, although two or three persons exclaimed, with a patronising air ' Let us hear what he has to say ?' The proceedings reached a climax when two row.lies, who differed slightly in their opinions, deiermined to fi^lt it out in the open air. A rush was made from the Council Chamber, end when our reporter lelt the two were fighting in Jhe rn'.ddle of the street, coats off, with an admiring crowd around ite.ua." We may Btate from personal knowledge that the proceedings reported above, are characieristic of the Council and ratepayers in question. On one oceasiou the Mayo ami a Councillor differing in opiuion, settled the matter with fief? across the. Inble. The village of Kollmar, near Gluckstadt, in Hoistein, which is situated in the district reputed for its healthinness, has just wit ne3sed the diamond wedding, on the 75th marriage anniversary, of two of its 1400 parishioners. Two more diamond weddings are impending, and the last fourteen years have seen ten such celebrations there. In the palmy days of the Colony, when the new and opening goldfield 3 presented such temptations to unguarded modes of living, many a hale and hearty fellow received the germ 3of sickness and disease, which in after years spread their malign influence through the system, and lay their victim prostrate. Many such, bearing of the introduction of those invaluable medicines — " Ghoixah's Grkat Indian Otjees"— into New Zealand, availed tbtmselves of the fact, took tbe medicines, and got cored See testimonials. These medicines are positively unfailing remedies. Sold by all Chemists. f - ■ m* Education Office, Nelson, November 16, 1878.
