"Whether this is the correct version of the affair we know not; but some member will probably desire to be made acquainted with the correct version of the story ; or, possibly, the American Government ■will desire to know more about the matter, when the Government will doubtless be able satisfactorily to explain the real position of affairs, and to clear up the whole question, which at present ia only shrouded in conjecture. It can scarcely be alleged as an excuse for sending Sullivan to Auckland gaol, that lie will be in safer seeing that it is i\ot very long since it was thought advisable to transfer several desperate criminals from Mount Eden toDunedin gaol for safer custody.
