Pastoral Interests.

Captain Pearse, one of the proprietors of the Australasian Review on his way to Argentine, where he in tends to thoroughly investigate the meat and wool trade in South America, was interviewed at Auckland. He said : « The Argentine has 90,000,000 Bheep and over 20,000,000 cattle, and ia our principal rival, .In ray mission, among the subjects of investigation are: (1) How they raise and fatten stock ; (2) the cksß of grasses cultivated ; (3) the lowest price they can raise and ship mtat at a profit to the British markets, all of which information will be very valuable to Australasian pastoralists.: Other points I propose to inquire into and study are the character of the land laws, the incidence of taxation, and the currency system. The Argentine Republic currency is on a eilver and paper basis. Everything they sell to Great Britain they sell for gold, which gold they change into their own currency for double the amount, and, it is stated, pay their wages and taxation with the depreciated currency. If so, the colonial competitor is severely handicapped, as be sells for gold and pays wages in gold. It may be said they have to pay in gold for all their imports, but as their exports are very much larger than their imports the result would be much in their favour, A study of these points will be of service and benefit to the colonial producer. For instance look at this dollar (exhibiting it) a Straits Settle ment dollar, coined in the British mint —costing 2s 2d. This dollar ia worth for paying wages and raising tin 4s. The result is that the Australian tin mines are nearly all closed down;"
