LATEST FROM WELLINGTON.
(FEOM THE CHEISTCnuiJCH PAVEP3). [By Interprovincial Telegiap!*.] Wellington, November 23. On the 14th the " Southern Cross" received the - following telegram from Auckland, dated Cambridge, Waikato : — " Matutaera and his principal advisers have resolved to come in. The country is at once to be opened." Nobody i understood it, but on the ICth the " Cross" received an explanation. It appears that some weeks ago the Governor sent letters to the Waikato Magistrate, Seraneke, for delivery to Matu- , taera and others, inviting them to make : peace and visit Prince Alfred. When the letters were delivered a council wao called, and a Verbal reply, sent that numerous pressing matters relative to ; land sales, leases, gold, prospecting, &c, 1 were occupying their attention, but tl.at ; they would consider the Governor's letter shortly. The telegram contains , the result of their consideration, and excites great hopes. Westgarth's Circular, London, October 1, states that provincial debentures command continued and increased attei>tion in view of the immediately-ex-pected consolidation and guarantee. LIOO,OOO Canterbury Sixes had just been sold on much higher terms than previously obtainable. All the Otago Sixes had been taken up, holders asking 95 and upwards. The New Zealand Bank advertises L 200,000 Auckland Sixes for tender on the Bth ; price reserved. November 24. ■ Mr Crawford has resigned his seat in the Legislative Council. Numerous addresses have been presented to the Governor, but the proceedings were flat.
