MR PEACOCK’S MOTION.
[By Teteghape.] [By a Special Coebespondent.] WELLINGTON, July 12. Mr Peacock’s motion about the honorarium was exactly reversed in the message by the Press Association. It really runs as follows : —“ The Hon Mr Peacock to move, that inasmuch as the finances of the colony are in a very unsatisfactory state, requiring the strictest retrenchment to place them on a better basis, to prevent as much as possible an enormous increase of taxation, it be a request from the Council to the Government to exclude from the estimates such a sum of money as would be required to furnish the usual honorarium to members of this branch of the Legislature.”
