Thb Star, discussing the statement re the appointment of another Minister, Bays-.—The matter of appointing an additional Minister in order to give Auckland its due share of influence in the Government has been frequently referred to of late, and many incorrect reports have been circulated on the subject. We understand that Mr Header Wood has „' definitely declined to take office, in spite of ropeated invitations to do so by the Premier, and that the raoant portfolio is now under offer to another Auckland member, who has cot yet decided. Bishop Redwood, of Wellington, arrived by the Waitaki on Friday, at the Manttkau. His Grace Archbishop Steins J sent his carriage to Onehunga to receive j him, and he was conveyed to the archiepiscopal residence. Bishop Eedwood is about to proceed to Europe to pay a visit to the Holy See, in accordance with the rule of the Roman Catholic Church, which makes it incumbent upon all its bishops whose dioceses are at a distance, to appear either in person or by deputy at Borne once every five years, and render an account of their stewardship. Bishop Redwood proceeded by the mail boat. Meetings COURT PRIDE OP THE NORTH.
