WEkWNGTON. Tuesday, Oct. 29. With regard to the Eangitikei-Mana-watu Ejill, the independent of to day censures the General Government in strong terms for the course pursued by the Premier in the Legislative Council on the last day of the session. It says that a slight was inflicted on the House, and that this is the first occasion on which such a gross breach of Parliamentary etiquette has occurred in this Colony. The Australian Press Association has practically broken down, the Melbourne Argus and the Sydney Morning Herald having only succeeded in raising 4>2,000 out of the £ IO,OOO which were required to pay Mr Reuler. The Argus and the Herald I hen tried to get a Government subsidy to make up the balance, bub failed. It is rumored hero that Mr Vogel proceeds to Australia to attend the conference on the reciprocity treaty. QAMAEU. Tuesday, Oct. 29. An attempt has been made to destroy the Phoenix flour mills by letting all the water into the mill drive. Fortunately the stones were securely fixed, and thus the attempt did not succeed. Several tons of flour were, however, destroyed by the water. AUCKLAND. Tuesday, Oct. 29. A ship is signalled (12,20 p.m.), supposed to be the Queen Bee, from Loudon. The Thames Advertiser regrets that the New Zealand Press Association is rapidly degenerating into a party organization of the most rabid nature, becoming so strongly biassed in Mr. Vogel’s favor as to suppress important Parliamentary news, when unfavorable to that gentleman. It savs that such O ** conduct will bring its own reward. Every item of imelligance that could possibly tell in favor of Mr Vogel had been sent broadcast ever the land during the past few months by the Press Association, whilst the proceedings of the Opposition had not receiver} the attention they deserved.—The New Zealand Herald also complains of the Press Association. It saj s that but for Greville’s telegrams, published in the Evening Star, the public would have known nothing of the important defeats of the Government lately.
