SIR GEORGE GREY. Wellington, May 16. Sir George Grey arrived from the South this morning. Sir George has taken his passage direct to Auckland, but may possibly speak at either Napier or Gisborne route. SIR JULIUS VOGEL. Auckland, May 16. In a telegram to the Y. Z. Herat?., replying to one from the Editor, Sir J. Vogel says, “I have no intention of staying beyond a few months, and have no intention of forming any distinct party. I came here without any thought of entering politics, but observing the existing difficulties, I thought my long experience in New Zealand might be of some use in suggesting remedies and consolidating parties ; hence, without the slightest desire to obtrude myself or revive old partisan feelings, I accepted the invitation of the East Coast electors, which was entirely spontaneous and unsolicited by me.”
Dunedin, May 16. At Sir George Grey’s recent meeting here the resolution carried on the motion of the President of the Trades and Labour Council expressed confidence in Sir G. Grey as a representative of the people, but not as a leader, which was telegraphed, and has occasioned some misconception.
