QUEENSLAND.
The Corporation of Brisbane has resolved to borrow £7000 for wharfs ut Pefcrie's Bight, and for other purposes. The first through train from Maryborough to Gynipie runs to-day. The Premier at Roekhampton, replying to a toast, said the British India Company intended the mail steamers to occupy six days less in the passage to and from Cooktown, which will give increased time for loading and discharging cargo along the coast. Two fafc bullocks were shipped by tbe last mail from Townsville as an experiment to test the possibility of a live stock trade. The British India Company has arranged to save six clays by omitting Naples and Colombo as ports of call.
