There seems to bo' a Slit stroug probability that Joseph tho Colonial Treasurer Ward, will be included in the list of birthday honors and pretty plain intimations have already been sent to the Colony on this score. His political opponents will not, we think object to his promotion, the awkward part of the business is that it would be a slight to Mr Seddon to pass him over on the birthday list in favour of one of his lieutenants. Mr Seddon ought himself to receive a title, but then can two bits of ribbon be spared for New Zealand statesmen this year. We like to see Liberals decorated, for after once assuming their titlos,they cease to be dangerous, and are no longer in touch with extreme views.
