The; business before the Assembly at .Auckland will be found foreshadowed in his Excellency's address. In the Upper House, Mr. Blakiston moved, and Mr. Curling seconded, the reply, in the Lower', Messrs. Beekham . and Ollivier performed the similar services. We shall endeavour to give a fuller report in our next. <■ Mr. Charles C. Bowen has taken a seat in the Executive Council of this province. As far as we can gather the present Government is composed irrespective of any theories of political party, but with a view solely to the practical management of the public business.
