AUCKLAND
This day. Mr Bridson, who has been appointed Native Lands Court Kegistrar at Wei lington, was yesterday presented with £100 by his Wesleyan friends.
Mr Garrard, the people's champion, collected a big audience in the Temperance Hall last night, and wanted to know the opinion of everybody present on varied subjects of "officers, bloodthirsty officials, who would draw man's blood dry with perjured evidence ; " " whether Government and its officers should be exonerated from blame when they were guilty of wrong actions more than anyone else;" and whether (in connection with the recent personation case) " if he had not good cause for action for conspiracy, false imprisonment, malicious prosecution, and damage to his character by certain officials." If stamping, hallooing, and generally boisterous merriment indulged in by all the audience, would satisfy the orator, probably he went home as he wished, " well satisfied in his heart" that all were of his opinion.
