Earl Granville admitted that the subject was of greatmoment, and required prudent handling. Lord Lyons has repeatedly pressed the French Government as to their views on this question. The Times advises the Government to exhibit a readiness to further the just desires of the colonists. < This paper also mentions that a report from Melbourne states the colonies are apathetic as regards federation.
