A Welliugtou paper says the Government intend, we believe, to enter on a thororgh and searching revision of Uio tariff as a whole, and m such atnnnner as to entitle the question to be regarded as one of policy. Iho revision will be made, probably, not only from a revenue point of view, but with distinct reference to s-veral matters connected . with the general policy of the Government, although it is not intended to raise the direct question of Free Trade verms Protection. At the same time, we may ho Bii re that, m any revision of the tariff, the desirability of encouraging and fostering local mamifucturos will be kept m view as well as the necessity for. raising revenue. ■■ (UNITBD PBEBB A8800IATI0N. ) Wellington, Monday. . Witliin a day or two of the disposal of the Debate on the Address- iti lieply, the Colonial Treasurer will deliver the Financial Statement and immediately aftei wards; the Local Government aud Charitable Aid Bills will be presented to the House.
