LORD DUDLEY.
ORANGE ASSERTION REFUTED.
Received April ,15, 10 a.m. SYDNEY, April 15. A strong official denial is given to the statement at Melbourne at the St. Patrick's Day celebration the Governor General (Lord Dudley) used the words, "I beg of you, for my sake, to give three cheers for the King." Such a form of invitation to any subject of the King i? declared to be as improper as it would be unnecessary.
Speaking at the dinner of the Orange Grand Council, the chairman took the Governor-General to task for attending the celebrations. He said Lord Dudley, as representative of the Kintr, had no right to be present, and hoped he would beware of the siren tongue which had too ready access to the vice-regal ear.
