A political crisis ha 3 occurred over Sir Henry Parkes' resolution in favor of a proposed elective Council. Opinions in the Council are divided, and a few fresh appointments to the Council are proposed, in order to effect a remedy. The Council is popular owing to its rejection of crude and injurious measures. The man-of-war Euralyus, 5000 horsepower, succeeds the Wolverine. The Cormorant is lilied out to meet Sir Arthur Gordon at J v .»goPingo, and to cruise amongst the si-ver resorts under British influence.
