AUSTRALIAN CATTLE.
The Government have telegraphed to the Australian colonies, stating it is their in* tention to adopt very stringent restrictions aa to live cattle on steamers from Australia to England coming to New Zealand ports. •She Minister of "Lands yesterday that rery angry replies received from ao least one colony as to the action being '"unneigh hourly," and saying that New • Zealand sheep were freely admitted and sold fin New South Wales. If New South Wales were an island and had been made clear of disease it would be all right, but the difficulty was that it was part,of a continent on which disease was known to exist. The Government was very mnch alive to the importance of the question. . Tuo statement was made m consequence of Mr Stevens' question apropo* of the Southern Cross with cattle from Sydney being announced to call at ■LyUftlton. Mr Stevens wants the Govern- ; moat to prevent such vessels calling at all.
