(from oreville’s telegram company, reuter’s agents.) Wellington, June 26. The Independent denies the statement made by the Auckland papers that the recent cases of small-pox were caused by defective quarantine arrangements. The Independent says there is only a small sum in dispute between the Government and Mr JBrogden respecting the Auckland aud Mercer Railway, and believes the contract will be signed in a day or two. It is probable that contracts to'the amount authorised by the Assembly will be signed before the Session opens.
