MELBOURNE, March, 12 Colonel Glover arrived last night per Chimborazo, and there is a probability of an early telegraphic confrence. The diffrence between the Council and the Assembly is m a fair way of settlement. [special to press agency.] MELBOURNE, March 13
A warrant ior the month's ex penditure, under the^tsth section of the Constitution Act, was duly perfected yesterday by the signature of Audit Commissioners and the Governor, but it will not be acted on until it i*j seen whether a compromise cannot be effected between the two Houses by Tuesday next.

The motion is likely to be earned, but the Council will, it is said, insist on the withdrawal of the item for payment of members from the Appropriation Bill as a peliminary to the conference.
