It was decided in Cabinet to-day to resist Otmoiu.'s lesolutions, and fight for the tea duty nnd primage. It is understood that Government would not resign if resolutions were canietl and tea duty or piimago rejected, as none of those interfered with their policy; they would, however, resign, if they did not get the amount of revenue required from their tantl pioposals. The ]';cn)ier will make an announcement to this effect in the House.
