GENERAL SUMMARY.
Since the imposition of the postal rate j||--of 3d upon the transmission of news |S|” papers, via Panama, to the British Isles, we have not published a summary for that postal route, preferring the somewhat more lengthy way via Suez, by which the charge has been Id. Now, however, that the Government! , ,- faas altered the system, and reduced the Panama rate to Id, we thiak it ■v. advisable to take advantage of it, and prepare our usual summaries for transmission via Panama. Not that we have anything of great importance to chronicle as having occurred in our Province since our summary of the 13th lost., if we except the flood above recorded. The natives are quiet, and politics
are in their usual abnormal state of stagnation. The Provincial Counci! O stands adjourned for the return of His i- Honor the Superintendent (expected to-day), who is absent at Auckland on a mission for raising funds to meet the secessities of the Provincial Government, which, after the late flood and its disastrous consequences, will be greater than ever.
