WELLINGTON.
[By Electric Telegraph.] {From our own Correspondent.) August 14. After Mr Vogel and Mr O’Rorke had spoken on the abolition resolutions, Mr Reeves stated as his deliberate opinion that the opinion of the majority of the House was, and he felt it was the opinion of the people of the Colony, that while it was competent, for the House to deal with the question and for the hon. gentleman (Mr O’Korke) to retire from the Government, his taking that course was an entire surprise. What opposition he might have to the resolutions, in accordance with the rule members of the Government followed when a proposal was adopted by a Government, he should cease opposition so long as he did not retire from the Cabinet. The Speaker announced that he had received a petition against the election of Mr Von Uer Heyde, and that the necessary bonds have been entered into to proceed against him at law. A committee will inquire into fhe case on Tuesday.
