FROM the Governor's address to the Council at the opening of the Session on Wednesday last it will be seen that Sir WILLIAM ROBINSON has taken to heart the lesson of the last two years in Hongkong, and has determined to retrench, though he haughtily refuses to be advised how to do it. He proposes to save 665,000 year, after a time, partly by using Portuguete and Chinese in many places how occupied by Europeans; but he is going to wait till the present office.holders die off or retire.
