— -I notice a very 'interesting disonssioy. in .If^usard on the salaries of the District Oouri jloei.,' vi, Aueikkad and the Thames. Hurst, in. sAidm;,' ii.JJ.ijj:., v; the Thames Court, was senior to Stoney, of Auo^ini, shewed cool effrontery, as no one knows bettjsr than the member for Waitemata that .Miom got his gbldfields appointment for political services rendered by Gillies in 1869 ; whilst Stoney lias been in the public service since 1862, and was never known to mix up in polities.
