SIGNIFICANT MOVEMENTS IN AUSTRALIA
in Australia, 1t would appear, by the last
advces from there, a national party has been
formed, their object being TO bring about a
union Of all the Australian provinces in one
great Federal State. Some years since, It
will be remembered, certain movements in
favor of independence became apparent. but
these we're promptly hushed up. The i'm
migration of the Irish element to the Austria.
Ian colonies since that time has been very
extensive, and the Irish people being generally
inspired with spri, of hostility against the
English government, this fact probably has
tended TO the federation" scheme. This
question of uniting Australia in ono Federal
State was brought up in the Legislative As.
sembly, at Victoria last summer, and after
an animated debate, was referred to Com
mitteer which has recently published its re.
port. The committee regards an ultimate
union Of Australia as a necessity, and propo-
ses conference Of delegates to be held for
the purpose of sketching the plan Of n con-
s,itution, which afterwards shall be submit.
ted to the various legislative bodies OF the
colonies for approval. The conference is to
be composed Of three delegates from each
legislature Of the colonies Of New South
Wales, South Australia, Tasmania, and Vic
toria. As TO how the report of the commit
tee has been received by the Legislative As.
sembly Of Victoria, nothing is yet known,
but il is said that the scheme meets the ap.
proval Of the people, and cOncurs with the
wishes Of the colonists generally. So that
the prospect is,-that the British Govern.
ment is likely, sooner or later, to behold the
transformation of it's Australian colonies into
one grand Federal Republic,-whe,her to be
free and independent, like the United States,
or not, time and events must determine.
