AUSTRALIAN.
Sydhey, This day. Mr Robertson's resolution condemning the Premier's Jetter to the Agent General, referring to the latter's letter on" Fallacies of Federation," was negatived. Sir William Jervois' report approves generally of the present outer fortifications, and recommends the use of torpedoes at Sydney, Newcastle and Botany Bay, and ironclads for the defence of the coast and against bombardment. He thinks in the event of the English being engaged in hostilities there is little probability of the enemy's vessels making a descent on the Colonies.
