The Acting Attorney General (Mr Russell) nearly monopolized the floor on this occasion, and it must be admitted that he has thoroughly demonstrated his tive measures which have come within ability to deal with the various legisla his reach during his acting appoint ment. Mr Russell's experience as pri- vate secretary to Sir Richard MacDon nall and as Police Magistrate admirably fits him for his present duties; and it is to be regretted that his place will be filed by an officer who knows nothing about the conditions and circumstances. of the Colony. It is some consolation, however, to know that the more import- ant legislative measures now in course of completion will become law before Mr O'Malley arrives.

In addition. to the valuable improvements as to sur veya which include those so much needed on river passenger steamers several new sections are embodied which deal moat satisfactorily with the nume rous difficulties involved in the treatment of discharged seamen, and of foreign sailors who have deserted or been guilty of misdemeanoura in port. The vexed question, which has been so frequently alluded to, as to how far Consuls or local Magistrates can take cognisance of misconduct on the part of foreign sea- men, or regulate their discharge from a ship, is set at rest by a provision in the new Bill The effect of the clause concerning the discharge of sea- men, while it will fully meet the wants of the foreign Consals themselves, will also allow of greater power being ex- ercised in preventing seamen from being thrown in a destitute condition upon the Colony, What was intended by the clause which gives to a Magistrate power to take cognisance of offences committed on board foreign ships in these waters, was not, as the Chief Justice appeared to think, to give any power to foreign Consula; it was to empower the local Magistrates to dispose of any case which, upon the written
