In the proceedings in Council yesterday, the discussions on the New Zealand Company’s Land Claimants Bill took a very interesting turn, and a proposal was made in committee to refer disputed claims to the decision of the Supreme Court. In the discussion in committee on the schedule of the Census Bill, a sensation was produced, particularly among the members from Nelson, by information from his Excellency of an attempt on the part of the Canterbury Association to get Nelson included in their settlement, and to extend their regulations for the sale of land (including the raising of the price to £3 per acre) to Nelson. Mr. Cautley gave notice of his intention to move for any documentary or other information in the possession of the Government relating to this subject.
