WELLINGTON.

This day.

An enquiry into the recent fire at Mrs Alexander's boarding-house is now proceeding. Melbourne Exhibition. An official letter received from Dr Hector at Melbourne contains the follow-, mfc :—." I was- shown over the Exhibition Buildings by Mr Casey and Mr Munro, Vice-Presidents, accompanied by Mr Hill, the Secretary, and the Architect. The permanent part of the building is intended for Art Galleries, and for a Ceremonial Hall, and is expected to be finished this month' but the large temporary erection for the Exhibition proper is still far from completed, but the greater part of it may be ready by the first July to receive goods. The organisation and arrangement of details in connection with the Exhibition appear to be very perfect. A system of tramway is bsing laid throughout the grounds and buildings, which will facilitate the placing of the exhibits. The Victorian catalogue is in the printers' hands, and Mr Casey wishes to have the M.S.S. of the New Zealand catalogue 1 as soon as possible, as an attempt is to be made to issue the catalogue on the opening day, and to get all the judging done in the first few weeks, so that the public may see the articles with the awards affixed. From what I have gathered it will require a strenuous effort on the part of New Zealand to maintain the position she won at Sydney."

lathe Court of Appeal to-day, judgment was given in the case, Brigham ▼• Chambers, allowing the appeal with costs; and in Cleve v. King, discharging a rule for leave to appeal. Mr Leighton Rochefort again applied on behalf of Bray of Auckland for leave to be allowed to appeal in forma pauperis against the decision. Judge Gillies at Auckland refusing leave, the application was refused.
