THE LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL.
Since he came to power in such a mysterious and unexpected manner a few weeks back, the Hon. T. Mackenzie has been, singularly silent on the most momentous questions of the hour. In his fulminations, he has thrown out a hint here and there, but he has carefully refrained from indicating what his attitude will be towards the tail-twisting Governor's Speech which was thrown on the ■tablo of the House in such a dramatic fashion by his predecesor. Probably, when the time for meeting '.Parliament draws a little nearer, he will consider it worth his while to look round for some sort of a policy—if it is only an apology for one. Meanwhile, people are becoming a little anxious about the Old (Men's Home. There are a, number of vacancies in the Legislative Cbuncil, =and. quite a host 'of worn-out and disappointed politieianis' have been promaseel seats in thai Chamber. Does the Hon. T. Mackenzie intend redeeming ihe promises made by his predecessor? Or, has he <a scheone-of his own which-he intends projecting upon the country ?
