(FROM OCR CORRESPONDENT.) Dunedin, Sept. loth. Whilst Sir George Grey was speaking Mr Pyko said sotto voce “ discreditable.” On Sir George Grey drawing attention of Speaker Mr Pyke said it was not intended for hearing, and he refused to withdraw expression ; if Sir George Grey would have his opinion, he thought it was discreditable ■for any member to become informer. After long discussion Mr Pyke regretted that he had used the expression. The House refused tb accept this by 45 to 22. Mr Stout moved—The House regrets disorderly words being used. Sept. 21st. The Dunedin members have sent very suitable replies to the Cargills’, Fish, and Co.’s Memorial. Mr Maoandrew is considering the advisability, after 'the treacherous action of a few Dunedin merchants, of returning to Dunedin. Mr Maoandrew’s resolution—" That the Provincial Council of Otago assemble again,” was rejected by 32 to 24. The Upper House has inserted a clause in he indemnity Bill, to indemnify Ministers all expenses incurred. Great indignation exists in Dunedin regarding the Memorial, signatures being obtained under false representations. Monster meetings will be held on return of Dunedin members. Mr Larnach is returned un-opposed. for the Peninsula. The Eingarooma, with the Suez Mail, is expected to-morrow (the 22nd inst.)
