The well-known stud horse Roebuck is to be disposed of on the consultation principle at Clyde on Friday next.
Tho recent escapade in the House between Mr Pyke and Mr Seddon is viewed in different lights. For instance, a paragraph in the Kumara Times says there is a "strong feeling of resentment amongst members at Mr Pvke's unmanly and untruthful version of the tilt with Mr Seddon, which appeared in the West Coast Times. Three or four members gave Mr Rcid letters to telegraph down, contradicting it." His people evidently sympathise with Mr Seddon, as our telegrams state that he has been bauquetted since his return from Wellington. Alas ! no fatted calf was killed for Mr Pyke on his recent visit to tho head-centre of his admirers, Clyde. Truly, a prophet has no honor in his own country.
