PARLIAMENTARY.

(BY TKLKGBAPH.-SPKCIAL REPORTER,)

<-,-. WEtWNCITOX, this day, Signs of a Speedy Close.

The Parliamentary birds are all on the wing, and thero are daily departures for North and South. Tho loquacious Seddon is expected to take his departure to day; and then there Will be every probability of tho remaining business being ruti through bo fore tho end of tho week. . Tho majority Of Auckland liloiribers are expected to leave in theHinomoa on Friday night, while Mossi-s Poacock, Thompson, and probably ono or two others will go overluiid.

It is intondod to mako application to havo Wahanui heard, at the bar of tho Upper House. Tho Lords are understood to be favourable.. :

Tho Beetroot Business.

A report hi current hero that ,tho New Zealand Agricultural Company, in which Sir Julius Vogel is interestod.'hos gone in pretty largely for tho cultivation of beet root with a view to sugar production, and hence Sir Julius's bill to provide a bonus. Thore may, howover, be nothing in tlie story, which I give as I hoard it.

The Cox's Creels Bridge.

The Minister of Public Works has pro mised Mr Peacock, that, he will have a re port mado on tho advisibility or otherwise of shifting.the present useless bridge at Cox's Crock to a more suitable position higher up tho creeki and also that lie will see what can bo done in the matter of traffic, .

Ministerial Visit to the Nortli.

The Premior and Ministor of Public Works have stated to one of tlie Auckland members .that,they intend to pay a visit to the districts North of Auckland during the recess. Settlers will thus have, an oppor tunity of agitating for the redress of their grievances., I notice that any references in tlie House to roads and bridges North of Auckland are, invariably received by Southern members with expressions of dis favour. , , ."»-..

Pending Petitions'.

£he petitions of Henderson and others against the seizure of an island by Me,- Arthur and Co',, of John Lundori, arid of Mackay; insurance agent, for alleged tVrongful imprisonment, havo been re peatedly under the consideration of tho Petition Committee during tho last few weeks, but no decision has been arrived at.

Tho Duty on Binder Twine,

Pressure is a*ain being brought to bear by Southern members for a reduction on tho duty of binder twine, but I am glvon to Understand that the Government will not accede to the request. JV letter from Mr Johnston, manager of Auckland Fibre Com pany, on the trade boing developod by tho works under his charge, appears in tho " Oa'maru Mail."

The Ordor of Business,

ihe present arrangement of business is that the committal of the Native Lands Settlement, New Zealand Loan, Property Tax, and Consolidated Stock Bills will be taken- this afternoon. It is understood fiat Government members will refrain frofa speaking in order to facilitate the business. The General Estimates are expected to come on to-night, nnd the Public Works Estimates to-morrow.

Another Injustlco to Constables.

Mr Thompson has been interesting him self in the case of two Auckland constables whose previous service on rejoining has riot been allowed to count, although a promise Was made that it should, So far he has been unsuccessful, proofs of claim being required by the Defence Minister.

A Missing Boat.

The case of Connolly, the waterman, who claims compensation for a boat which he believes was taken by some Kohimarama Training School boys who went missing, has been under the consideration of the Petitions Committee. There is, however, no evidence to support the claim, but only the coincidence that the boat and boys were ■missing at the same time. Tho Com mittee, therefore, declines to make any re commendation.
