WELLINGTON. [from a correspondent;] July 13, 1870. Mr. Stafford spoke last night for an hour on the financial proposals of the Government. It was pretty generally known that the leader of the Opposition was going to utter his opinions, and the House was crowded in every part. Mr Stafford offered in the most generous manner to aid Ministers in modifying and moulding the scheme of colonization and public works, so as to secure permanent and large benefits to the Colony—his home and the birthplace of his children. The speech was worthy of the speaker's reputation. Towards its close he was visibly affected, but he succeeded in controlling his feelings, and finished an able speech in a most eloquent passage, receiving the warm applause of the House.
