It is thought that, in consequence of the pledge given by tho Parliament of New Zealand not to borrow in the London market for three years, the loan prospects are excellent, Ist June. The Standard spitefully attacks the New Zealand loan, and suggests that the money is wanted to meet the Budget deficit and sustain the mercantile credits. Melbourne, June 2. Bernard Sheridan, a publican near Benella, lias been arrested on a charge of murdering his housekeeper, Mrs McGralh, by throwing her out of a tuggy.
