AUCKLAND.
This day. Dargaville was telegraphed to yesterday by John Lamb in the following terms: — "Do you rote against the Gorernment on the Loan Bill? —Beply." Dargaville replied—" What is yoar own opinion about the matter.—Division to-night?" Lamb replied—"Peeling rery strong in faror of the Loan Bill passing; you should Tote with the Gorernment." The Herald correspondent telegraphs —Sir George Grey went to a church tea fight last night instead of bothering himself about the no-confidence debate, and he won golden opinions on all hands by his charming speech and genial courtesy, especially to the ladies, who effusively declared their opinion that he was "an old darling." He looks with ill concealed derision on the clumsy No* Confidence attack, and hardly conceals his yiew that with another leader than himself such an attack must be a fiasco. Most of the Opposition are rapidly coming round to the opinion that Sir George Grey is their only possible leader, in which fiew I am inclined to think they are not far wrong.
