In the Legislative Council yesterday afternoon the Hon. Mr Reynolds announced that a new Government had been formed composed as follows : Mr Stout—Premier and Attorney-Gen-eral. Sir Julius Vogel—Colonial Treasurer, Postmaster-General, and Commissioner of Telegraphs, and Stamps. Mr Richardson—Minister of Public
Works. Mr Ballance—Native Minister, Defence, and Lands. Mr Tole—Minister of Justice; and himself, The Hon. Mr Reynolds, without a portfolio.
The Times' correspondent states " that the Hon. P. Buckley was sworn in last night as Colonial Secretary, and that Captain Morris or Mr W. J.
