The Melbourne Argus of Thursday, November 7, in one of

the last dropping discharges of its violent and uneandid political attacks on Mr. Duffy, turns upon us, and charges upon us gross misrepresentation for saying that the Minute in which Mr. Duffy submitted his reasons for a dissolution was suppressed by the Argus. For this it demands an apology, stating that the Minute in question was published in the Argus of the 7th of June. Probably it was, but the Argus of the 7th June was not a copy intended for European circulation. In the European copy, the only edition we received, and the one from which it was of course intended that the British public should form its esti- mate of the quarrel, the Minute was suppressed. We have, therefore, no apology to make.
