The San Francisco Mail Service.

Auckland, to oo The Only New Zealand I'ort of Call.

NEGOTIATIONS NARROW ED TO £2,500. It is understood that the negotiations regarding the San Efancisco mail service, have been narrowed down to a sum of £2500 as between the Governments of New Zea land, and Sydney. Our Government how ever, being limited by the resolution of the Assembly to the £75,000 subsidy under the proposed modification, will, it is believed, not consent to an increase ofNNcrw r Zea land's liability beyond its contribution to that sum. The question of making- Auckland the only New Zealand port of-call, has been accepted by the two Governments and the contractors. CHINESE IMMIGRATION. —PROMO TION OF A COLONIST'S SON. Mr J. Dundas Crawford, attache to the British Legation in China, and son of the Wellington It.

He has been accredited to Lord Normanby and the several Australian Governors, who are requested to render Mr Crawford every assistance in prosecution of this work. Mr Crawford has arrived at Wellington, and will lose no time in obtaining, by personal investigation in New Zealand and Australasia, the material necessary for the required report. He speaks Chinese fluently.

THE NEW PRIMITIVE METHODIST CHAPEL.

The Primitive Methodits, not only of Auckland, but in the old country, have made very con siderable progress in religious and devotional life, and are now recognized almost universally for their persevcrenco and almost unwavering iixity of purpose, and it must be confessed that this body of respectable Christian people have been the means of doing a great deal of good in the world. The Primitive Methodist ministers, are not usually men of high learning, who boast of their lineage and college degrees, but are rather men who have educated themselves by such means as they have possessed in their several spheres, and who devote themselves exclusively and faithfully to the religious instruction of those who cannot be gathered into established places of worship. Tho merit of this religious portion of the people seems to lie in giving now life to the work, and in raising it from compara tive neglect, to a higher place among the systems for regenerating the world, and in awakening new hopes of the improvement of what had been regarded as the humbler portion of society. The greatest benefactors of men are not so much those who discover or contrive original and untried modes of action, as those who seize on familiar agencies, and exalt them into new powers. The Primitive Metholdists of Auck land, under the guidance of their several talented ministers, have done much in the way of religious progress, and their example is worthy of calm respect. They are continually at work, and their voice is heard betimes in the morning, and after the going down of the Sabbath sun. The work of the Sheridan-streot chapel and school has been carried on successfully for a number of years until it was found that an effort for more room, for the diffusion of more light was necessary. The effort was made, and the new Primitive Church, at the pJeasant corner of Wellington and Franklin streets, is the satisfactory result. The chapel is not only pleasantly situated, but agreeably built from a design by Mr Mahoney, one of our city architects. The length is 67 feet, and the breadth is 33 feet, and it is capable of accomodating several hundred persons. It has a commodious vestry of 12 feet, and its chief entrance is from Franklin-street towards Wel lington street. The pulpit is neatly constructed, and displays much taste, without extravagance. There are six large windows on either side, two in the front and one in the rear. The school room is of tho same dimensions as the chapel, and has been evidently erected with clue regard to the health and comfort of the Sunday-school scholars. There arc, moreover,three classrooms, and from one of these rooms a flight of substan tial steps leads to the vestry. The building and schoolroom are supported by strong pillars. The roof of the chapel is neatly panncllcd, and the walls are carefully papered in imitation of marble, so that the congregation will not bo subjected to draught or cold air. The chapel is ornamented by two gasalicrs, and gas will bo supplied to the side of the pulpit, to tho school room, and other parts of the entire building. Without minutely describing every particular, we may say with confidence that the now chapel is creditable to the designer, builders, and deco rators, and will supply what is felt to be a desi deratum in the localities of City West. The opening services will be held on Sunday next, when a series of three consecration sermons will be preached; that in the morning by Rev. Wm. Tinsley that in the afternoon by Rev. T. Hodg son, and that in the evening by Rev. Walter Harris. *

NEW WHALING VENTURE.

About a fortnight ago, there was an article in our columns advocating the re-establishment of a Whaling Association in Auckland. We now hear that the gentlemen who have been most intimately concerned in the recent successful cruise of the Magellan Cloud arc endeavouring to prosecute the fishery on a much more exten sive scale. As the cultivation of this industry is of the utmost importance to Auckland, we have great pleasure in making public the scheme which Mr James Macfarlanc and Mr Ford are launching. It is intended to start an Association with a capital of £10,000. A regular company will not however be formed, nor will the shares be of any slated value. Tho sub scribers will be allowed to put any sum they like into tho venture, and their share of the orofits will be in proportion to their invest ments. The Association—we simply use this term for want of a bettor, not as conveying any other than the most general meaning—is to place the management of its affairs in the hands of a competent agent who will be allowed to act on his own discretion and without, any appeal to the shareholders, whose safeguard will be the integrity of the man they choose for the position, and the condition that lie shall be lai-gclv interested in the success of the under taking. It may not be generally known that, almost all the New Bedford whalers arc managed on this principle, and to produce an illustration nearer home, we see the same system employed with conspicuous success by the gentlemen who own the steamers lona, Argyie, and Rowena, whoso movements are under the solo control of Captain A. McGregor. When once the required capital is subscribed, it is intended to purchase the Magellan Cloud and a barque of about 2:30 tons. The two vessels will be lifted out, and during the humpback sea son will work together. When after sperm whales the Magellan Cloud would go to the line where the smaller iish are met with, and the larger vessel would mostly remain in the neighbourhood of the French Rook. But although this will be the general plan of opera tions, it is not intended to control the actions of the captains of the vessels any more than the action of the agent. Tho great idea will be to get thoroughly ableoflicers, and then leave them unfettered to make use of their experience. We are informed that it is erroneous to suppose the Magellan Cloud is too small for a whaler. On the contrary, when her masts have been strengthened she will prove a most, useful vessel. It is stated that during her stay at Tonga.one or two large barques offered to work with her in shares, but captain Irwin declined, tho reason being that the Magellan Cloud was found more handy than the larger ships for running down to meet the boats when they were towing in a whale. While the barques were afraid to weigh anchor among the rocks, the Magellan would trip hers when the boats were coming up to leeward, and sometimes save her boatmen a weary pull of several miles. Captain Logan of the s.s. Hero, is now negotiating for the purchase of an exactly suitable companion vessel in Sydney. Whether Auckland or the Bay of Islands will be head quarters of the association is not a question ot very great importance, for in any case the principal portion of the stores and outfits would have to be procured here. We presume the project will receive further publicity in a few days. ________________________

BISMARCK ON THE SITUATION

HE PROFESSES FRIENDSHIP FOR

ENGLAND

LONDON, December 6. BISMARCK has informed the Reichstag that Russia does not seek a great conquest, lmt desires them, in co-operation with a con ference of the other Great Powers, to obtain the amelioration of the condition of the Christians in the revolted provinces of Turkey, The triple alliance still subsists, and Germany's friendship for England is equally traditional, He believes that the differences between England and Russia will be amicably arranged. If not, Ger many's duty will be to negotiate between the two Powers, and to localise the war. If efforts at mediation prove futile, he could not conjecture what the future would bring forth.
