QUEENSLAND'S DISSOLUTION.
I BRISBANE, August 27. The Assembly has been sitting continuously since yesterday afternoon. With the assistance of the gag the Appropriation Bill was got into committee, when Mr. Blair intimated his intention to move a memorial to the Lieutenant-Governor pointing out that he had been misinformed in connection with the request for a dissolution, and that he should refuse to exercise the prerogative when it would conflict with the expressed wish of the House. Mr. Hardacre moved a reduction of the appropriation to £33,000. The debate is still proceeding.
