THE IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT AND NEW ZEALAND.
House ov Commoxs. —25th Apeii. Mr Addeeuet asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what reply the Government had made to addresses from New Zealand for separation of the two islands under distinct governments. Mr Caedwelxj stated that the answer which the Governor of New Zealand had been directed* to return to the addresses was that the British Government were not prepared to encourage any expectation that they would be able to advise concurrence in the prayer. At the same time, as it was stated that the Governor had expressed an opinion in favor of some change of government in the northern portion of the Northern Island, he had directed that officer to bring the matter under the consideration of his responsible advisers, with a view to submitting to the Legislature of New Zealand such measures as might seem advisable.
