Wellington, September 1. The * Tribune ’ urges that, in consequence of the impending change, and to prevent a hitch in the public business when the Provincial institutions come to au end, a meeting of the Provincial Council should be called immediately. It says the Provincial Government is without money, and that the operations of the Education Board have been brought to a standstill through the non-payment of the grant voted to it by the Council; and that, even should the land at Orana, under offer to Mr Douglass, of Otago, be sacrificed, the price will do no more than meet the overdraft at the bank. The difficulties of the position it says have become well nigh intolerable. Auckland, September 1. A meeting at Onehunga has condemned Mr Vogel’s resolutions, and a motion was passed approving of Mr O’Rorke’s action. At the nomination for Waitemata, the candidates were Messrs Macfarlane and Von der Heyde. The show of hands was in favor of the former.
The South British Insurance Company’s half-year closed yesterday. It will probably pay a dividend of 10 per cent., the income from the investments equalling the amount required for the dividend.?
