Wellington Items Frora Our Own Correspondent, As I previously intimated that there was to be an extraordinary show of juvenile humanity in this city, it may be interesting to know that the show actually took place, that there was a crowd of mothers with their " kiddies" present, that the public (especially the male portion) were there in large numbers, and that the enterprising manager has taken his departure for fresh fields and pastures new, leaving band conductors, newspapor proprietors, and the unfortunatemothers" in general to mourn their loss, R.I.P. \Y lion the publican educated public -allows itself to bo gulled in such an outrageous Inanner, it is pretty nearly time the millenium ensued.

* Oar aquatic boys were completely "liad" the other day in a most peculiar manner. . One of their number had a sort of a presentiment that Stephenson and Matterson/ the former of whoni is to row Hearn in Wellington shortly, were to arrive by the Union Company's' boat from Sydney. Accordingly theypreseated

themselves at the wharf en mm, and their feelings can be pictured when it is said the scullers were amusing themselves at the time in Sydney, ancj had no idea whatever of leaving for this Colony for a for' weeks at least.

It is pleasing to learn that the . health of our Premier, Sir Harry : Atkinson) is improving, and that he will shortly bo recovered sufficiently to uudertake the duties connected with his important, offico. It seems. somewhat strange, however, that his" <: colleagues in the should feel the burden of extra'-fffice" so heavy in his absenoe that they advise him to .prolong his stay in Tasmania if possible, Quite evident it is that.' when the cat is away the mice begin to play. . . ; An effort is being made here to form a branch, of the Australian Natives Association, which institution, has a wide influence in Australia, and takes a great interest in questions of national character. j In Victoria no less than a dozen mfcm- ' bers were returned to Parliament on , its ticket last session, and although in New South Wales they ara termed " fadists," they aro making their voice heard in political matters. The Association is confined essentially) to colonials, and besides being political, is a benefit and mutual improvement association, . ■ i-

Considerable correspondence appears in the ovening papers regarding the forthcoming jubilee demonstration, and some of llie suggestions made are at least amusing. individual is very anxious that tho ' " parsons" shall bo permitted to form ft part of the procession. Another suggests that drapery estab- • ments bo paraded through the thoroughfares, and, a . third asks whethor thero is no probability of the rubbish destructor being brought into prominence on that occasion. Truly, there's no accounting for taste. The seasons of the year in this ' colony must indeed be subject to some supernatural growing power, else such an experience as we have of late been blessed with in Wellington had not transpired. From the extreme heat of summer on Monday and Tuesday last, the remainder of this week has resombled very closely the middle of winter, ami the cold , bleak winds of to-day are most unde- A. sirable, penetrating to the very • ' marrow those forced into the open air.

Those membora of our Yolunteera corps, who intend competing at the Exhibition Rifle Meeting left hero yesterday for the southern city, * together with Wairarapa and other representatives,

The Auckland cricketers, who made their debut in this city., with great festivity and self-confidence on i Monday last, left tho other evening with their "tails down," having ' received a most unmerciful slaughtering at the hands of our local boys, From what I hoar they will probably - ; not put in an appearance again for some considerable time.

THE GOOD SHIP rapidly foundering in the breakers. Sbo had " i-M repeatedly signalled for L foW help and fired minutte is" ® utis ' 'he life-saving w on s ' lol ' e was '' oun^ unseaworthy when wanted and bofore it could bo mado good the gallant captain of the doomed ship ran up the three flags shown at the begin- i mug of this paragraph, Bi'gnifyiug A "Toolate." \ ~ " Too late I what a world ofagenj is compressed in those- two little words. Too lato for rescue. Too late to save life, Yet there was a time when it was not too late,'

Before the vessel got'among the breakers; before the patient was given up as hopeless. As yet you are beyond tho breakers, and there is hope for you. We-wjmt to save you —to do you good.

' You are not feeling well this | spring; your appetite isMlo; your eyesight is not so keen as it should ' be; you are'distressingly nervous; | you' urinato more frequently than formerly; your bowols are consti- ! pated; you cannot sleep woll, etc. • you take pills and doctor yourself a ! little, but you fcol no better. You ! consult your physician who gives you i a prescription or fixes you up a bottle of medicine with tho remark that you will be all right in a few days. But bis prophecy proves untrue, and while, perhaps, feeling no worse, you 1 certainly feel no better. You have ■ no particular pain, and there is i whero the danger lies. Your kidneys are affected, and as they have few or : no nerves of sensation you are unaware that they aro diseased. Just now is tho time when you 1 should have help, Advanced Kidney Disease, which tho doctors say they cannot cure, and which they do not, is but another name for Bright's Disease. Your blood is loaded with impurities which the kidneys do not excrete and which finds its way to all parts of your system. You aro doctoring for symptoms, when Kidney Disease is at tho bottom ot all your troublo, Now, Warner's Safe Cure is a medicine' especially adapted for all derangements of tho Kidneys and Livor, It lias stood tho test'of ten years' severe trial and has come out triumphant, We know it will do as represented, there is no guess-work about it, and a million unsolicited testimonials from the best peoplo in the land can be produced in proof of our assertion. Give this great remedy _ a chance to euro you, It will do it, and not only quickly but permanently. Then be wise to-day, that those terrible words, " Too late," may not be written over against yoiir life. The will of the late M, H. Novillof NevilPs bread frame—which has appeared does not represent tho property of this distinguished man, According to the City Press, oner who know hiin intimately says • that, in addition to the personalty of £288,000, there are freeholds and leaseholds which may. be said to represent £60,000, and a little prior to his death he disposed of property approaching a quarter of a million, In addition, the businoss, speaking in roondnumberß,raay be worth£3oo,ooo or £400,000, so that the total would reach about a million sterling. A telegram from New York, Nov 22, says: -News has just Arrived of tho assassination of Genera) Corona, ■ Governor of the Mexican State of Jalisco. He was walking 'in the streets of Mexico when he was suddenly attactcd by a policeman, who stabbed him'with a poniard, The General foil mortally .wounded, and died very soon afterwards. The decoased.was formerly a Mexican Minister to Spain, His assassin is undoubtedly mad, . According to tho Inquirer, "Jletho- ; dist Evangelist" gives it as his opinion that 70,000 Methodists have gone over to the Saltatiou Army. ' '
