WELLINGTON.
Saturday.
Tauranga Keen, mrte of the -steamer Rowena, fell overboard and was drowned whilst off Cape Colvillo, last night. The Colonial Secretary has replied to Mr Barton's letter, saying the correspondence has reached its raturtil conclusion and no useful pil..pose cm be served by continuing it. Otherwise it would have been my duty to return your let:er last received, as the language it contains is at variance with the well understood cou - tesy of correspondence, and the insinuation that Judge Richmond' was consulted in reference ,to your charges, or was even cognisant of the decision of Government, is as untrue as it is gratuitously insulting io the Cabinet, and the law officers of the Crown.
