Sir Hercules Robinson now found himself in a very difficult position. Under ordinary 00 PROGRESS OF AUSTRALASIA. circumstances he would have sent for the leader of the Opposition, Mr. John Robertson, but Sir Hercules was anxious to avoid having for his chief adviser the mover of the vote of censure which reflected more upon his own action than on his Ministers. The Governor therefore turned to Sir William Manning, a distinguished member of the Legislative Council, and asked him to form a Minist...ry. This Sir William Manning attempted to do, but without success, and the Governor had perforce to entrust the task to Mr. John Robertson. After the re-election of the new ministers an attempt was made in the Legislative Assembly to censure the Governor, for his action in sending for a member of the Council to form a new Ministry, but the House negatived the motion and the Gardiner affair and its attendant complications passed out of sight. The Government of Mr. Henry Parkes had in- augurated a vigorous public works policy, which was continued and extended by succeeding ministries.
