DEFEAT OF THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT BILL.
[Nelson Examiner, August 10.] By a telegram received last evening, from Wellington we learn that the Local Government Bill was thrown out on Thursday, on the second reading, by a majority of nine. We are not told what course the Government will pursue ; whether they will meekly accept their defeat and retain their places, or whether they will take the constitutional course of appealing to the country, after hastening through the business of the session, and stand or fall by the verdict.
