. The Herald, referring to the Representation ' Bill,_ a*.y3:—"The Ks-precentation B 11 of tin * Vliuistry wonld prov*» fatal to the interests ol '■ the North Island if it camo into law iv i'.s ; present form. Wo conceive tbat thero should be an ULiliucbing resolution to defeat it by the ; uso of any and every means. The question i:one of life and death to the North, aud there fore justifits recourse to extreme expedients. Let tho bill be carried iv its preneut form, and Otago and Canterbury will poßßesn onehalf the representation of tho Colony, less one member, aud practically can do -vhatever they like. It is not a matter t*f choice, but of necessity ; and if the South will not concede, then, however reluctant the North amy be, it will b»* compelled to raise once agatu the cry of insnlar separation, and carry ou tht iitrugglo to the bitter end. The North does not claim an exact balance of power. It concede* to the South the right of an excess <.f represantalion. It kno-Bi* that comcromiee is the csscnccof politics, and is prepared to accept it j but it must defeat a bill evidencing no moderation or Ispirit of compromise, cr seek in instdar separation a remedy for ita wrongs."
