The intelligence from Europe, brought by the Otago, is of no particular interest. The few items to hand relate almost solely to Germany. The Emperor has opened theßeichstaginperson, and it is satisfactory to be assured by him that the policy of Germany is solely one of defence. Count Arnim, it will be seen, has at last been admitted to bail; and Kullman, convicted of an attempt on the life of Prince Bismarck (which he did not deny), has been sentenced to fourteen years’ imprisonment. The Victorian political news is scant. The last show of the National Agricultural Society is pronounced the best ever held south of the line. The Assembly has resolved to abolish tolls at the end of the present year, and has negatived by a small majority a motion for the the opening on Sundays of the public Museums and Libraries. A failure is reported in Melbourne—that of Wilson, Crosbie, and Co., importers—but it is of no great importance.
