SQUABBLES IN, SOUTH AUSTRALIA
(From the Sydney Gazette of Feb. 22.)
Advices have been received at Launceston t, the 23 Janu-
try, by recent arrivals, from the now colony of South Aire-
tralia.
The squabbles, which have shaken the foundation of the
colony to its very centre, have by no means arrived at a con-
elusion. The fundamental error, it appears to us, is to be
found in the princip!e on which the colony is established—one .
of the two high contending- parties in the colony considering
the Crown, and the other the South Australian Company, as
the supreme governing power. A Mr. Fisher, who holds an
appointment of a very aeomalous description—designated Co.
lonial or Resident Commissioner __of the exact duties of
which neither himself nor the Government party appear to Ire
aware, is the leader of the opposition to the Govt rament,
setting up his own authority as distinct from, and superior to
that of the Governor.
The Sotitli Australian Gazette of the 20th January has
been received at Launceston. A squabble has broken out be-
wren the Governor and Mr. Fisher, the Resident Coonnis-
sioner, regarding the site of the future capital. Ia consequence
of some recent discoveries, Capt lin Hintlmarsh hsi come :o
the determination of selecting a site at Encounter Bay for thst
Purpose, but Mr. Commissioner Fish. r, who clairns•the
of deciding upon the ma:.ter, forbids the removal from Ade-
laide. Mr. Jieklinen the new Judge, and Mr. Mann. the ex-
Advocate General, have had a squabble also in chandy ap-
pererele carried on with great bitterness on both sidt s. The
Royal Admiral, with 205 erni4.;raets, had-arrived. This being
the tint opportunity for a tria of strength between the two
emigration agents, Mr. Bingham Hutchinson, the Governor's
ai-p)intee, and Mr. Beown,- Mr. Fisher's appointee, a regular
strue•gle took pinee, in which the latter was successful. Col.
Light, the Surveyor General, has resigned the magistracy.
Mr. Morphett has been appointed agent for Lloyd's. A joint
stock Company for the purpose of purchesing sheep had been
formed. A mectivg of resident landholders was held on tit:
23d December, Mr. Commissioner Fisher in the Chair. to tale
into consideration the subject of the right eleimed• by the Go
vent-nerd of reserving certain portions of land for public per
!loses. The meeting was d,vided in opinion, and the Ch it
man, Mr. Fisher, gave his casting vote against the Goverment.
