PARLIAMENTARY ITEMS.

(From oca owk Cobbespondbnt.)
WbliiTngtok, Aug. 16.
The report of Mr J. H. Soott. on the survey of Waikouaili Bay was laid on the Table today. It is pimply a technical description of the bay, and offers no suggestions whatever. A letter from Mr Blackett to the Minister for Marine statrs a good harbor can be made for £378,000. On tho motion to go into Committee of Supply, Mr Smith, during the temporary absence of Sir Goorge Grey, moved the land tax resolutions for that gentleman. Sir Georgo Grey fallowed m a long and bitter speech, bnt bis energy was thrown away, and bis philippics only drew forth derisive cheers.
