rlh> Court re turned at 2 p.m

His Honor quoted from a ruling of Mr Jus'i-'O Johnston in the caso Bank of Now Sxilh Wales v. Mitchell, which went to show that under similar circumstances ns in the present caso the plaintiff had been nonsuited. Under tiio old rules, there was provision for a motion setting aside the writ and action depending on it. Apart from this objection there was one of the notice of discontinuance by one of the plaintiffs.—Mr Alexander argued tbet one of several plaintiffs could only give notice of discontinuance so far as our in dividual interests wore concerned. —His Honor said thisappcarcd to be a joint action. —Mr Alexander then moved for an adjourn ment to-morrow to await the arrival of the warrants.—Mr Hesketh argued that the filing of tho discontinuance was fatal to the action, and even if it, was not, the irregularity regarding the warrant was.—His Honor was not prepared lo follow tlio ruling of Mr Jrstice Johnston. He would adjourn the hearing till next sitting. In the mean time the defendant could move that the action be set aside on flit- ground of irregu larity, and would givo the plaintiffs an op portunity of asking if it should not be set aside and applying for an amendment. The costs of the day would bo paid by plaintiffs.

THE POLITICAL CRISIS.

(BY TELISGHAPII.-SPECIAL REPORTEIt.

Wellington, this day, MR STOUT SENT FOR.

' The report that tlio Hon. G. M. Water ; house and Sir Win. Fitzherbert had been summoned by the Governor on Saturday Mas found to be incorrect. The Governor took the opinion of several prominent men on the situation, and at 10 o'clock on Sun day morning sent for Mr Stout, and had a long consultation. He did not, however, then ask him to undertake the forma tion of a Ministry. His Excellency ap peared to favour the idea that sonic member of the Legislative Council or a neutral person could best facilitate the coalition necessary for Hie formation of a Government. Mr Stout submitted his views on the subject, and the Governor requested him to attend again in the evening. Mr Stout again saw him last night, when His Excellency entrusted him with the forma tion of a Ministry. Will a Dissolution Follow? The " Times " to-day says His Excellency also gavo Mr Stout the promise of a dissolu tion in tho event of failure, but this state ment lacks authentication. Mr Stout as Cabinet-Maker. Mr Stout is now engaged in the formation of a Cabinet. He will make somo pro posals of coalition with the Atkinson party, but not such as aro likely to be aecopted, and tho Ministry is nearly certain to be formed out of his own and Sir Georgo Grey's sections. Mr Tolo is sure to be offered a portfolio, but as Mr Stout takes the Attor noy-Goneralsliip,it is impossible that he can hold such an important ollice as ho might have done in the Atkinson Administration. The Grey party are favourable to giving the now Ministry sufficient support to carry them on, and the fear of a dissolution will influence many. Tho Next Ministry. The "Times" to-day mentions Messrs Vogel, Stout, Larnach, Richardson, Whit more, Dullance and Tolo, as probablo Ministers, and says sucli a Government should bo put out at all risks. Tho Governor's Action Criticised. Tho "Post" of Saturday night says:—" It is stated that His Excellency has communi cated with Hon. G, M. Watorhoiiso. Why he should have dono so wo aro utterly at a loss to imagine. As tho acknowledged leader of tho majority by which tlio Ministry wero rejected from office last night, Mr Stout's advice should, we think, havo been first sought. It is possible, however, that through Mr Waterhouse's mediation a coalition between tho parties may be brought about; but it is very unlikely, ns, notwithstanding the professions of the leaders on both sides last night, it is under stood this morning that the difficulties in the way of reconciling existing differences so as to lead to a combination have beeomo intensified rather than soothed over. This is much to be regretted, as failing coalition, a dissolution appears inevitable."

Canterbury Wants an Atkincon Coalition,

The position seems no nearer settlement than ever. Tho Canterbury members met. yesterday. They were strongly opposed to Mr Stout's proposals, and urged upon Sir .1 ulius Vogel that bo should form a coalition with Major Atkinson. A very angry feel ing, however, still prev.\ils among the sup porters of tho latter on account of the failure of the coalition negotiations on Friday night. They declare that they wero shamefully " sold."

Mr Stout's Views. — Ho Consults with

Major Atkinson,

Mr Stout's own feelings are understood to bo most favourable to forminga Ministry, if possible, out of his own followers and the Greyitcs, trusting to obtain a majority of tho House. Ho, however, had a consulta tion with Major Atkinson to-day on the subject of coalition.

THE LATEST.

Mcetii'U of the Atkinson Par!"

They Refuse Mr Stout's proposals.

Wellington, this afternoon.

The caucus of Major Atkinson's sup porters to-day lasted two nours. Mr Hamlin was in the chair. Major Atkinson gavo an account of his former proposal for coalition, offering tlio Stout-Vogol party four seats in tho Cabinet. Ho said this offer was made solely with the view of advancing business. He furthor stated that Mr Stout had proposed that they should find a seat for Major Atkinson in the new Ministry, but not a3 Premier ; or if he were willing to stand aside that tho threo seats should bo filled from among the members of his party. After considerable discussion, in which some members oxpressed themselvos favour able to a coalition if suitable torms wero submitted, while others dissented altogtt'ie and favoured sticking together as a party, a resolution was finally carried to the effect that ns very liberal terms of coalition had already been offered, and declined by the other party, the meeting was adverse to the.acceptance of the proposal for coalition since submitted.

A Stout-Grey Coalition Probablo.

This resolution, as expected, throws upon Mr Stout the alternative of making much larger concessions of forming a Minis out of own and tho Grey parties, and he will doubtless endeavour to do the latter.

The Ntw Government Not to "je Turned Out.

The meeting was favourable to not op posing the new Ministry until they had an opportunity of bringing down their policy, so that any Government farmed will pro bably remain in for_some time, «. (BY TELEOIUPII—OWN CORRESPONDENT.) Otago Opinions on tho Situation. Tho " Herald " hopes that tho victorious party will use their victory with discreet moderation. "It is satisfactory to find the Libeial party showing their full power, but we do not want them to insist upon having everything their own way. A coalition is now possible so strong and enduring as to render a repetition of the events of the past few weeks impossible. Whether Major Atkinson or Mr Stout becomes Premier is not a matter of first-rate importance. We should like to see the Major in ft, though uot as Treasurer; that must go to Sir Julius Vogel. Otago will have everything to look for and gain, and will not be disap pointed." The " Star " is opposed to coalitions, but fears no other course is open now. It says : —" It is quite timo that the members for Port Chalmers and Akaroa and their imme diate supporters realised to the full that either of them was a source of weakness rather than of strength to the Government, whilst running in pairs was simply not to bo tolerated. Mr Maeandrew's day is past. Ho does not recognise the changed circum stances of the colony, whilst hjs yearnings after the resuscitation of the mummy of provincialism has developed in his brain a harmless monomania which renders him in capable of taking an intelligible view of the vital questions of the hour. The infatuation which persists in the endeavour to eleyate Mr Montgomery into the position of leader is, in the face of experience, difficult to comprehend. He is political feebleness personified. Major Atkinson bad no option but to decline to associate himself with Messrs Macandrew and Montgomery." It goes on to say;—"A stable Government could be formed of men thoroughly in s m pathy on most vital questions, but it appears hopeless in the absence of defined party lines. Should the crisis result in a Coalition Ministry which will include Atkinson, Vogel, and Stout, it will be of mest supreme interest to know what will be the policy of the Ministry so constituted in regard to taxation, the tenure and disposi tion of land, and the prosecution of public works. It is clear they cannot each and all give effect to tbeir views. The question is—who will give way ?"

MERCURY BAY TIMBER COMPANY.

Half-yearly Meeting.

The ordinary half-yearly meeting of the above Company was held this afternoon in the offices, Fort-street, if r D. H. MacKenzie presiding, Twelve shareholders in all were present. Thefollowingreporf, was submitted: " The directors have pleasure iv submitting the {annexed balance-sheet to the share holders. Considering the low prices which have ruled since their last report, the re sult of the Company's operations for the period under review may be considered fairly satisfactory. The timber market exhibits a hardening tendency, and it is hoped tlirt during the ensuing summer better prices will fie obtained for our pro ductions; On reference to the balance sheet it will bo seen that a large amount lias been written oil' for depreciation of mill, plant, So, The amount standing to the credit of the profit and low account is £13,335 10s B<l, and the directors recom mend the payment of an interim dividend of live per cent, which will absorb £1,875, and leave a balance of £11,400 IDs Od to be carried forward to the present year.—For the Board of Directors, D. H. MoKeNssie, Acting Chairman. Fort-street, August 20, 1854."

A balance-sheet was also submitted.

Upon the motion of the Chairman, seconded by Mr A. H. Nathan, tho report and balance-sheet wero adopted. This constituted the business of the meet ing, but a desultory discussion ensued upon the future prospects of the Company, which were considered to bo good, and the difficul ties which had tended to restrict the profits of the half-year. In answer to a question that tho production of timber from the logs was Gl_. per cent., thus showing a waste of 35_j per cent. The average sale was at tho rate of 10s per hundred feet. Mr Monk stated that if tho local Timber Companies continued to havo a yard in Australia it would yield them from £30,000 to £-10,000 a year. The proceedings concluded with unvote of thanks to the Chairman.
