(Per Press Agency.) AUCKLAND. 22nd August.
The National Bank has received a telegram announcing a dividend of C per cent. The report was adopted. At an adjourned meeting of Tonks' committee they adopted the following resolutions :—l.: — 1. " You were elected not to truckle toMinisters in the hope of gaining some paltry temporary adi vantages for Auckland, but to unflinchingly and unswervingly follow the line of policy stated by Sir George Grey at the meeting of Auckland members yesterday. 2. That your committee strongly disapproves of the course you have adopted, but hopes it was an error of judgment on your part. 3. Should your views have changed since your election, your committee calls upon you to resign at once, in order that a member may be elected who will carry out the wishes of the people of Auckland City West. Further, the meeting is of opinion that your telegram is unsatisfactory." Captaiu Burgess, the pilot, intends to take proceedings against Captain Ferries, of the Zealaudia, for his conduct towards him when the vessel came into this port, and his refusal to give him charge of the ship. Information respeetiug the wreck seen floating bottom upwards leaves no doubt that it is that of the schooner Clematis.
