AUSTRALIA.
BRISBANE, July 29. The Torres Straits Route. In the Legislative Assembly the members sat all night and still continue, and will probably not rise till noon to-morrow, owing to the Opposition “ stonewalling ” on the mail contract for a direct service between England and Queensland via Torres Straits, which had been arranged for by the Premier whilst in England. MELBOURNE, July 30. Political. Mr Berry is still negotiating with Sir John O’Shannassy and Mr Wrixon with a view to the formation of a new Ministry. It is stated to be unlikely that Sir J. O’Shannassy will accept office, as the education question hinders an understanding with Mr Berry.
