Melbourne, this day
Purine next year t;he Government of the different colonies have to decide what) action they will take in reference to renewal of the agreement concerning the auxiliary squadron. If they agree to continue the present agreement the visits of the veoaela to Queensland, South Australia and Western Australia will have to be more frequent. Both South Australia and Queensland complain that they Bee very little of them. It is considored that the stipulation made by New Zealand that two vessels must always ba in their watiers, is too great a conceasiion compared with the small sum bhab colony concributei towards the maintenance of the squadron. There is also some feeling in regard to Sydney's privileges as head quarters of the squadron.
Two military officers who inanlt«d a party of citizeae in Olmutz were afterwards waylaid and severely maltreated.
