THE BRYCE EPISODE.
The Biyce affair came up again on Tuesday afternoon, when Mr McGuira'a motion to rescind the vote of censure, and Mr W. P. Reeves'amendment extending the whitewashing process to Sir J. Vogel,and Messr» Gisbnrne, Ormond, Pyke, and Curtis were discussed up to the dinner adjournment. Messrs Duncan and Sandford opposed the proposal to rescind to vote ,-f censure while Mr Bryce refused to make submission to the ruling of tho chair. Mr Guinness regarded the whole proceedings as an utter farce. After dinner, Mr Seddon said he had no personal feeling regarding this matter, but he thought that too much had been made of it. Mr Fish believed that the Government occupied a contemptible, if not a ridiculous position. Mr McGnire ; considered that if Ins motion had 1 been accepted the House would have acted in an honourable and 1 dignified way. He asked that the 1 amendment should be withdrawn. After further discussion the amendment was carried without a division.
