SIR ARTHUR GORDON.
The Wellington Post while not vouching for the correctness of the report says that Sir Arthur Gordon has deferred his intended departure in accordance with instructions received from Home, and that the particular position of importance in the Royal Service, to which it was understood Sir Arthur’s proposed retirement from the Government of New Zealand was the prelude to his accession, is not at present available. It is further rumoured that he will retain the Governorship of this colony for some time longer, but that the Pacific High Commissionership will be largely shorn of its powers, if not reduced to a mere name or abolished altogether.
