Mr Vesey Stewart's New Settlement.

ARRANGEMENTS FOR THREE LARGE SHIPS.

Mr Vksey Stewart writos a long letter to tho "Bay of Plenty Times" rccordiug his success with tho now special settlement at To Puke, near Taurnnga, Wo make tho following extracts:—"Not satisfied with filling the Lady Jocolyn, I have this day arranged with Messrs. Shaw, Savill ;md Co. to follow the Lady Jocelyn by tho grand ship Himalaya, lcaviug London for ■jfauiauga direct on the Ist December. I have a lot of passengers secured for hor.aud somo men with a pile of money whom I trust will be foumt settlors in Tauranga district mid subscribers to your valuable paper. Strauj'e to say Captain Calvert, of the Himalaya,' was captain of the Dover Onatle that left Belfast iv 1875 with some members of No 1 party, having Bailed a few days previous to the Carisbrooke Castle.

I think it is a matter of such importance to a rich aud rising district like Ta'iranga to converge into its focus as much capital as possible, aud with other arrangements 1 Jnwo just concluded here, I believe that a third ship will be despatched to Tauranga about the month of April. She would, however, arrive at the worst season of the year, perhaps in ,i pour of rain, which might cause bad impressions at the start— and I bolievo in " first impressions." The date of Uio departnre of ihe subsequent ship must, therefore, remain over for consideration. My only reason for starting a vessel from hero each three or four mouths is to strike the iron while it is hot, and keep up tho stream of emigration to our district. My friends, Messrs Shaw, Savill and Co, do not care particularly about sending ships to Tauranga direct, as it entails a largo additional outlay, and tor cargo Auckland is of course the only port; but surely some of our Tauranga store keepers would iiud it to their advantage to order their goods direct from London. How ever, as to succeeding ships, the matter will be well looked after by my friends during my absence from London, as I have made arrangements with a few capitalists to join me in the development of the To Puke grant, and have formed the matter into a privato limited company, which was yester day incorporated under the name of the " New Zealand Land Corporation (Limited)." The Goneral Manager in Lon don is Mr Maurice Grant, while I have been appointed Resident Director in New Zealsud. Mr Graut is one of the best business men I have ever met. There is no end to his energy, or to his means of ob taining capital. All my arrangements and conditions with the Goverument will be carried out to tho letter of the law, and a good deal more than my unaided capital could accomplish. It is proposed in the first iustauce to sell to bond lido settlers as much laud as possible, either before leaving this country or after arrival iv our Tauranga ships. Then all tho land unsold we propoan to clear, plough, fence, jow down in grass, uud stock, doing the work by contract, which will circulate thousiiuds of pounds iv th& district. Wo will then sell these lands as quickly as possible to persons in this country ai grass lauds. There are scores of persons deterred by the fear of grappling with the feru and the tutu, who would prefer to pay a few pouuds extra per acre to settle down at once on a grass farm in the lovely climate of the Bay of Plenty. Wo also take extcusivc powers under our articles of association, such as lending money on mortgage, constructing railways, steamers, laying down water pipes, estab lishing gas works, &c.

One of the first matters to which I will devote my time in connection with this Company after my arrival in Tauranga will bo an endeavour to make arrangements for the formation of a steam tramway from Tauranga to Te Puke and the Lakes. I presume the Government will give us running powers over Hairini bridge. How ever, if some more suitable route be dis covered we can build a bridge ourselves, but in an important work of this kind we must obtain local co-operation, and money must be locally subscribed in sham-i by those who would be inserested.

EMIGRATION OP EDUCATED LADIES.

I omitted to state that among the Lady Jocolyn's passengers are a few young ladies who proceed to tlie colony as governesses with different scales of accomplishments, but who go with the determination of accepting tho first offer of respectable employment they may be ofFered, and even to accept that of domestic servants. There are also some good trained servants (female). They have all been highly recommended to me, and therefore it any ladies in Auckland, Tau ranga or elsewhere require such I hope they will write to your office stating the terms they are willing to give. I think it would be advisable to insert a few advertisements in the " Bay of Plenty Times " towards the end of November drawing tho attention of the public to this, and I am sure my friend, Mr Breft.with his well-known attention to tho fair sex, will give our country-women every assistance through the medium of his influential journal and insert a few advertise ments gratuitously on their behalf. Some of these young ladies have sent me their photo graphs, and should any unhappy bachelor be iv quest of a good, sensible and well edu cated wife he cannot do better than take up his quarters at once at the Commercial, Tau ranga, or Masonic Hotel and wait tho arrival of tho Lady Jocelyn. The Lady Jocelyn leaves ithe East India Bocks on advertised day, Saturday, 25th September for Graves end. On Monday 27th .ye are to have a grand dejeuner on board (which will be. better arranged than the one in Belfast); on 2Sth September she starts, and I expect will be in Tauranga by Friday, December 17. So we will see if I am correct in my anticipa tions. She will probably remain in Tau ranga at least -IS hours, and 1 expect that we shall meet many a jovial face during that time.

AGRARIAN OUTRAGES IN IRE LAND.

Ireland does not appear to bo at presont a pleasant place of residence, at least in the south and west. Not only are deadly n#d murderous assaults made on innocent men for the great sin of asking tho people to pay their just debts and rents to their landlords, but even the poor dumb animals suffer, and you read of cruelty practised by hanging scores of cattle and cutting the ears off sheep, and yet a few low Home Rule members will have the audacity to stand up in the British House of Commons and deliver a lecture to the gentlemen of England on the duties of gentlemen! Many oE these Home Rale members arc connected with the press and thus earn their living, and it is well known that some of them write the most Conserva tive articles for the " Standard," whileone of them was not long ago a butcher, another a Wlliard-marker,and another not long since a bankrupt, and though we have one or two members in the New Zealand Parliament that are certainly of alow enough degree.yet they would even compare favorably with some of the Irish members in the British House of Commons.

LONDON GOSSIP.

Parliament has been dissolved to-day. I cannot think or believe that Mr Gladstone will have a long reign of power; he is evi dently bidding for the support of whatever aido is likely to bo the strongest, His Chief Secretary tor Ireland has made two most un fortunate speeches in Parliament—one with regard to Irish landlords and rights of pro perty; and the other with reference to tho House of Lords. Though in each caso he attempted to eat his own words and make explanations, yot the words were spoken. Such language, however, from a responsible Minister of tho Crown will alienate the old Whig families that have hitherto supported Mr Gladstone, and before many years tho political battle-cry will not be between Whig and Tory but between Democracy and Com munism on the one sido and the British Constitution on the other ; and so great is Mr Gladstone's thirst for power that Ido believe he would throw his talents and energies into the former side to secure suc cess.

Wehavehadamostdcligbtfulharvesttime. in fact I never remember such a continuation of fine weather. It often reminds me of New Zealand, but the heat is more muggy and oppressive. I am very much struck with the fine con dition of the London Omnibus Company's horses here. You can always tell a Com pany's dub from the others by the condition of tho animals, and on remarking this lately to a driver I was suprised to find that these animals are in the Btab'o enjoyint'good food lor 21 hours out of the 24, and when wo con sider that the Company's 'buses are almost as thick in tho city as " autumnal leaves thatstrow tho brooks in Vallombrosa" we may imagine the large number of animals that arc thus employed. I have found myself in a scribbling mood this evening, and fear I have trespassed too long on the patience of your readers.

I hope to get away by the next 'Frisco mail, but should private and public matters detain me I will leave London at latest by the mail leaving this on 4th November and due in Auckland on 15th December next; and, considering that 1 have nntas yet moved out of London, I think I could spend a week very profitably both in the interests of the colony, the company I represent, and also Tauranga, by delivering a few lectures upon the object of my present mission.

/ Tno death of poor old Samuel Cochrane, jof Bolfast, was a sad loss to me. However t tho Government agent, Mr G. M. Reed, has left Bolfast tor New Zealand, aud I do not in the least his regret his departure, so far as Te Puko and I are concerned.

Topics of the Day.

[FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.]

London, September 0. General Robert's succes3tul march and brilliant victory over Ayub Khan at Kandahar will lead to a speedy conclusion of the Afghan w;ir, though what is to bo done with Kandahar itself in still an open question. THE EASTERN QUESTION i.s thus wittily summarised in si ballad in tho "St. Jaraos' Gazette" on Mr Gladstone's superior merits us a political cook :— That preotous old turkoy too, what Is your Of th»t bird which ho boasted 80 loudly he know. How to uono and to carve? Doar, Mir, you would starve. Bid you wait fora allco to ba otTored to you. Ho hacks it. but full* In obtaining a pieoo. Ho bastes it, its toughness appears to increase. And ho'u mndo such a muss That no mortal can guoss Which part o£ it'a turtsey, and wnioh of it groaso. Groat alarm is felt in Constantinople at the coming demonstration by tho allied ilects, but the Turkish press still assures its readers that it is merely a prelude to further negotiation. In reply to Mr Cowen, Mr Gladstone on his ap pearance in Parliament, assured tho Opposition that all his efforts would be directed towards tho maintenance of the Treaty of Berlin. The Tory press is jubilant over what they regard as an abandonment of his famous "bag and baggage " policy.

MR GLADSTONE.

Mr Gludstouc seems fully restored to bia wonted vigour by his tour round Scotland with Mr Donald Carrie. The Grautully Castle returns to the Cape on Sept. 14. Lord Strathuaim tilled up the tedium of waiting for laws to discuss by censuring Lord Chclrnsford for tho Rorko's Drift disaster. Every one was sorry to sco tho miserable Rubject revived and Lord Chcliusford driven to defend himself at tho expense of tho unfortunate Colonel Dum ford. The rejection of the Irish Registra tion Bill (voters) by th<) Lords at tha instigation of Lord Kedeadale, added to their mutilation of the Burials Bill, Hnrea and Rabbits Bill, aud Employer's Liability Bill.caused great indignation in the Radical ranks, and drew forth opinions on the " mis chievous uselessuess " of ;v Houso of Peers from the Quaker, Mr Forster.hardly pleasing to some of his colleagues in tho Ministry. Lord Granville especially telt bound to apologise to his brother peers for the indis cretion of tho Irish Secretary. The speecli has been made a text for invective against the Senate in France, aud has boen highly approved by Kadical prints. Lord Spencer is now at Balmoral in-waiting ou the Queen. THE QUEEN'S HIGHLAND HOME.

Her Majesty seems more than ever to enjoy her Highland home, in spite of in creasing numbers of tourists who make the post of lodge-keeper by no means a siuecuro. It i* louj» since wo have enjoyed such a lovely September, and a fine September iv Scotlaud is heaven upon earth. Shooting is moderately good everywhere, and tho poor overworked legislators are j.t last free to enjoy what they have striven so hard to preserve. ■ When I last wrote the now famous twenty one hours' sitting of the House of Commons on the Irish Constabulary vote had com menced, and no one could foresee its close. Irish eloquence seemed inexhaustible, and Mr A. M. Sullivan had evidently pro visioned for a long siege. When remon strated with by Mr Labouchere for [keeping a packet of buos by him on the seat, ho replied that he understood they were going in for a " Committee of Supply."

LORD BEACONSFIELD,

Lord Beacouslield after a few hot days in the House has returned to Hughendcu for the recess, quite satisfied with having limited the Employer's Liability Bill to seven ynars. The condition of Ireland is still deplorable—outrages are of weekly oc currence, and threats against life and pro perty are sent by every post. Lord Cran more and Brown has recently prosecuted his butler for either writing or conniving at some he has received. The patriotic Mr Dillon even is not exempt therefrom, and felt obliged to »ppeal to the Parliament for protection. Some laughter was caused by Lord .Randolph Churchill, who immedia tely joined in the petition. Mr Callon fortified his spirits with strong waters, and deuounced Mr Foreter, infidels in general, and London shopkeepers in particular, until conducted out while kissing his hand to the Speaker. He apologised at the next sitting. SALMON. Salmon in Tasmania appear to be a bril liant success. Mr James Youl writes to the " Times " in answer to many queries on the subject. The young fish in the Der went have, however, beensubjected to such wholesale slaughter that there is some talk of introducing the English laws for their protection. LordLamington was offered the Governor ship ot Tasmania, but declined it, being quite content with the House of Lords. A peerage is worth the burden and heat of the day, or so thinks Mr Adam on re signing his office of Her Majesty's First Commissioner of Public Works for the Go vernorship of Madras. Mr Kylanda Is spoken of as his successor here, but Mr 1 Adams wlil not go till November.

A MAN SHALL NOT MARRY HIS

GRANDMOTHER,

The Duke of Buckingham is said to be on the point of contracting a second mar riage with a girl younger than his youngest daughter. Many people have quoted "a man shall not marry his grandmother " with reference to Baroness Burdett-Coutts and Mr Ashmead-Bartlett (whose portraits are in the " Whitehall Review" of Sept. 2), but the maxim will occasionally bear reversing. The Baroness has lately come in for an ad ditional £300.000 by tiie death of a relative who left no will, so whether Mr Ashmead Bartlett's father was an American or not does not greatly signify to anyone but the affectionate relative who makes the claim. The singular clause in the Duchess of St. Alban's will was made to protect the then young Baroness from a grasping foreigner, supposed to be an aspirant for her fortune rather than her hand.

The French wine harvest is more promis< ing since the late splendid weather. Cham, pagne is better in quality than quantity.

SARAH BERNHA.RDT.

The Sarah Bernhardt affaire in Copen hagen is the latest piece of gossip in diplo matic circles. In a moment of enthusiasm, and in a mixed company, Baron Magnus, the German Ambassador, made a flowery speech to the fair representative of La France. Mdlle. Sarah raited her class, and drank to "La France entie're," meaning Alsace and Lorraine as well. Her Danish admirers cheered her enthusiastically, and the band struck up the "Marseillaise." Baron Magnus left the room, and has since left Copenhagen. The scene is taken as a sign that Denmark has no more forgiven '6G than France has forgiven '70, and Bis marck is said to regard it thus, i The Emperor of Austria has been on a conciliatory tour through Austrian Poland.

THE CZAR.

The Emperor of Russia has arrived safely at Livadia. Another attempt to undermine the railway embankment on his route was only discovered a few days previously, and great precautions were taken. Russia is, however, in a calmer state than when Prince Loris Mclikoff first entered on his duties, and the recent additions to his authority and dignity give general satisfac tion. There is still every prospect of a Chinese war, though Marquis Tsing has been politely received in St. Petersburg. The unlucky Chung How, who negotiated the Kuldja Treaty, has been liberated.

THAT BLESSED BABY.

The Pope has blessed the swaddling bands of the expected Prince or Princess of Austuria3, and Madrid is in a state of general envy, hatred, jealousy, and all un charitableness over the precedence in the expected ceremonies attendant on the birth of an heir. The King's sister was not long ago created Princess of Austurias, and one | question is how she will like the possible usurpation of her title. The Court Martial on the Wimbledon marking scandal is still sitting. The revelations are not very edifying to the general public. The evidence is taken down in the old-fashioned way, so the pro ceedings appear to be interminable. Passenger traffic and lodging-house keep er's profits arc considered safe criterions of the state of business; if it is so, England must be peculiarly prosperous. The rail ways arc crowded and lodgings are not to be had for love or money. People are | sleeping in bathing vans and railway carria ges at all the watering places. I The festival of the three choirs is this year hold at Gloucester Cathedral, a great I treat to ull admirers 01 sacred music. The Welsh Eisteddfod was held at Carnarvon. The Sunday-school Centenary futcs are still in full force in the provinces, every village in turn helping its next neighbour , with baas and brass bauds. In some the

clergyman excludes the ministers, and in others tho ministers bid fair to exclude the clergyman. One old woman thought the whole affair savoured of Popery, and tolil the curate that she had heard of St. Peter and St. Paul, but she " ne'er hoard o' St. 'Enery" (centenary). THE BRITISH ASSOCIATION. The British Association has this year settled tho world's affairs past, present, and to come at Swansea. Professor Ramsey is the President of the year, and has given a geological cast to the proceedings, though all other subjects have had their turn. Pro- . fessor Ramsey's address is greatly admired, j He summarised the recent discoveries made ' in turning over the " floor of Europe," and drew his own conclusions therefrom. The j most remarkable opinion ho has ex pressed is that glacial periods have | occurred at almost every stage of the world's formation, since the metamorphic. The greatest general interest appeared to centre in the Geographical Section, in which Sir Richard Temple explained tho high j road from the Indies to Kandahar. Mr , Boyd Dawkins and Mr Pengelly gave the results of their recent investigations into the remains of pre-historic races, the Plelocenc being now the period fixed for tho earliest appearance of man on tho earth. The ap- ' plication of chemistry to agriculture did not draw forth much new light. Lieutenant Temple gave an interesting account of the , North East passage, achieved by Professor Noidenskjo'ld, which was spoken of as tho most completely successful Arctic voyago ever made. Next year a jubilee meeting of tho Association will be held at York. The Social Science Congress will bo held in Edinburgh from October Cth to 13th. The discussion iv the Education Dopart ment will be " What may be tho dangers of educational overwork for both bcxos, with special reference to tho higher class of girls' schools, and tho ellbcts ot competitive ex amination." The Congrots will be opened with papers by Dr. Keillor, M.D. of Edin burgh, and Mis 3 Edith Peachy, M.D. of Leeds. Mr Fawcett has made tho Cambridgo local examinations tho tost for entrance ' Post Ollice situations.

RAILWAY TRAINS.

(To tho Editor.)

SIR, —I wish to direct attention to tho very dangerous practice that provails upon our railways of placing eugiues in ths middle and at tho end of trains. This is not tolerated at homo ; at least was not up to tho time of my leaving--tho objection to it being that if anything happened to tho leading engine or carriages the engine [in rear would run into ana smash thorn and their occupants. Tho engiuos aru invariably placed in tho front, and I have travelled with three, and even four, so attached. It is truo that in tho case of goods and coal traffic tail engines arc used to help them up an iucliuo, which, iv the old country, are neither so severe iv gradient or no rich iv curves as here, and consequently the dauger is rendered less. Happening to travel by tho train which arrives iv Auckland on Saturday morning, I was rather startled to find myself iv the centre of a long train with many passengers, an engine in front, 35 tons of ballast, and an engine behind all, driven harum • scarum down an incline of 1 in 40 or 20 through a dark tunnel, over a broken bridge, rouud a sharp curve, on a high embankment. The apan between life and .sudden death, or fearful mutilation, was but small indeed. The tail engine could'not have stopped iv time, and should therefore at least havo kept at a respectful distance behind.

The Rirnutaka accident may also be attri buted to the faulty make up of the train. Iv this case, two carriages led the way, then came tho engine, with two goods wagons following, terminated by a break van. As the incline is very steep (1 in 15) a third rail is introduced between the two ordinary rails, and the engine and break van clip it, ho as to increase both the tractive and break power. It will be seen that the comparatively light carriages, forced up tho incline by the engine, and acted upon later ally by tho wind, tho wheels tend to impinge against tho mils, and aid in throw ing oft' and down the bank. When the break-van was removed, and not till then, the wind had full power over the goods wagous, and they went too. Now, had the eiigino been in front, and the break-van in tho rear, both securely attached to tho centre rail keeping the train in comparative tension, the accident in all probability would nut have occurred. An arrangement of this kind would surely be preferable to wasting money in erecting brcakwinds, which may themselves prove an invitation to danger from the very source they aro provided to guard against. Wm. Aickin, C.E.

This Company is being formed for tho purposo of purchasing, taking over, ana carrying on the whole of the Torkiah Baths, which, for many yeara, have beon bo sucoesßfully conducted by tho Proprietor, Mr Bykks. They have been erected at a very considerable cost, and aro replete in all their appliances, ventilation and sanitary arrangements, and arranged chiefly on the principle of Bartholomew's, of Bristol. The business is steadily incroaßing, and a Public Accountant {Mr T. L. White), has drawn up a statement showing tho profits for the past year to be nearly 100 per cont. They have become an Indiapenslble Institution and a public boon, and if proporly conduotod will continue to provo a financial oneness. Mr Hykk.s will take the management of tho Baths until bis successor Bhall be thoroughly initiated into the bnsineßS.
