Lloyd's, which sent out one of their; ships, the Polluco, are making inquiries with the view of having a monthly _ line. There are also several outside steamers of large carrying capacity coming hero, not ably the Protos, Lennox, Clifton Uunsmuir, Nemesis, Africa and Australia. Messrs George Thompson, jun., and Co., whose Aberdeen clipper ships comprise some of the finest sailing snip* afloat, s,uch as the Mil tiades, Romanoff, Salamis, Poricles and Samuel Plimsoll, see the greater advantage of steam, and have laid down two steamers, one of which should be- almost finished. She is to 1)0 a twelve knot boat, and comfortably fitted for passengers, be sides being a good carrier. The other is to be essentially a cargo vessel, and is built of steel. The cost of the former is stated to be about £90,000, aid ct the latter not much more thau half that sum. The Cascapadea belongs to a firm different to any of the above, although advertised with the Thames and Mersey Line. She will, however, form one of a new line when three other steamers belonging to the same owners, and now in course of construction, are finished. Their route will be from London or Liverpool to Adelaide, Mel bourne and Sydney, thence to China, and back to London via New York. The Messageries Maritimes Company, subsidised by the French Govern ment, will commence in February next running a monthly line vifi Mauritius to these colonies and New Caledonia, and as their vessels are all good carriers they will at all events obtain a share of the cargo as well as passenger traffic. Private advices by the last mail state that the ship-building yards of any magnitude are so occupied with orders fdr large steam vesse.ls that those shipowners who left here a short time ago to have steamers built for the inter colonial trade are not likely to get their orders executed for Borne considerable time.

MAY QUEEN MASSACRE.

PUNISHMENT OF THE MURDERERS

BY H.M.S. MIRANDA,

BY the steamer City of Melbourne, which arrived yesterday afternoon from Noumea, we have particulars of the cruise of H.M.S. Miranda.

The visit of the Miranda; the Hon. E. S. Dawson, commander, to the islands, to mete out condign punishment on the murderers of some of the crew of the May Queen has been attended with success, inasmuch as 15 men, one woman, one child, and hun dreds of pigs have been shot, two or three villages destroyed, and a number of trees cut down. On the morning of the 16th August the landing was effected. The crew of the Miranda were wild with excite ment at the chance of an encounter with the murderous blacks, and on the previous night sang and danced and made merry, till it became absolutely necessary for

them to retire reluctantly to their ham mocks. On the eventful morning, at 5 o'clock, all hands were roused and a general muster made, everyone being eager for the corning fray. After breakfast the men Were put into heavy marching order, and armed with the necessary weapons. All being ready, tile Naval Brigade, commanded by the Hon. £. S. Dawson, left in the ship's cutters, the other officers being Lieutenant Fane, sub- Lieutenant Knight, Messrs Pascoe and Bowman, midshipmen, Mr Cifabb, gunner, and Mr Young, interpreter, Were also of the party. On landing, the brigade wan received by a tribe of friendly natives, num bering some 80, but this number was greatly augmented on the journey, as war riors from distant villages flocked into the ranks of the avengers as they marched along. Altogether there were over 100 friendly natives who joined the .British, most of whom were armed with rifles of different kinds, the remainder bearing bows and arrows, spears, &c. The friendly natives were of great help to the brigade, and rendered considerable assistance by carrying the provisions, &c. In order that they should be distinguished from the enemy they each wore conspicuously a piece of white drill. All being ready, the inarch was com menced in Indian die, the seamen leading, the friendly natives in the centre, and the marines in the rear. These latter formed an imposing array, being stalwart men, well accoutred, and in handsome scarlet uniform. The destination of the little army, if we may call it so, was a village some seven miles away. The road to be travelled was rough and narrow, steep, and in most parts exceedingly slip pery. The march was weary and toilsome, but the goal was at length reached. After a short rest a section of the village was surrounded by those of the Brigade who were in the front. After a sharp, quick struggle, the astonished enemy fled, leaving behind them 14 prisoners, amongst whom happened to be one of the chiefs concerned in the May Queen outrage. He was afterwards shot, hy the order of Commauder Dawson. The rest of the brigade and the contingent of friendly natives then attacked the remainder of the village, but the place had been deserted, the occupants had fled. Everg nook and corner was searched, and the adjoining thickets scoured, but not a single native was to be found. As there, were no more prisoners to be made the marines took charge of the cap tured ones, and the whole brigade sat down to a meal, all the more enjoyable after the fatigue of the march and the excitement of the combat or skirmish. Then the work of destruction was begun. Some set fire to the huts, others cut down the trees, while others again had good sport by making a battue of the numerous pigs and fowls left behind by che fleeing tribe. The friendly natives rewarded themselves for their allegi ance by "looting" all they could. They ( exhibited a sympathetic love for the pigs, and gathered together the mats and implements left to their fate, loading them selves heavily with spoil. In less than an hour the village was razed to the ground, and the place become a howling wilderness. But the vendetta was yet by no mean* satisfied. There were other villages to be visited, other culprits to be punished. One dead man, lying stark on the ground, shot to the heart by a British rifle fired by a friendly native, was buried in a grave of dry leaves, and the brigade proceeded on its march.

This time the destination Was a village some four miles away. In due course this place was reached, after a small village on the road had bean destroyed. The village was there, but the enemy had decamped. All that could be done was to pull down and burn the huts, and this being done, the re turn journey was begun. On arriving at the site of the village first destroyed,one of the prisoners "jibbed," stating he could walk no further through fatigue. He was tied to a tree and left behind. This had the effect ot Inspiriting the other piisoners to such a degree, that they ceased to complain of fatigue, and marched along in silence. The body of the dead man who had been buried beneath the leaves had been taken away. His brother natives had returned to the village when the British left it and borne off the corpse. The discovery ot this tended to show that the brigade was closely watched. Then an act of retribution was done. The captured chief, mentioned above, was shot, and the remaining 14 prisoners were set free, after a little advice and caution as to their future behaviour, by Commander Dawaori. The brigade then resumed the home ward march, tired and grimy after the day's arduous labour, Some, no longer sustained by the excitement of war, began to give in, and had to be carried by their more enduring comrades on stretchers. The want of water was terribly felt, and thirst could ba only partially quenched by small quantities procurable here and there. The march was ended by 4.30 a.m on the 17th August, and the officers and men were glad to seek their berths and hammocks on board the Miranda.

The march of the brigade occupied 23J hours, and over 25 miles had been travelled in heavy marching order ; this without tak ing into account the constant running to and fro between the huts as each hut was destroyed. It is estimated that each man covered 28 miles of ground, and this on heavy and rough roads. During the skir mish Commander Dawson and Mr Crabb, the gunner, lost their swords, which were not recovered. The result achieved by the expedition was, that 15 men, 1 woman, and 1 child were shot, besides several hundred pigs, fowls, &c, while three villages were destroyed. _. _^

LATER FIJI NEWS.

[Via Sydney.]

SERIOUS ACCIDENT,

The '• Fiji Argus " states that Mr Jones, of the Bank of New Zealand, met with a severe accident on the 25th August. The accident was caused by one of the hawsers parting and swinging across the deck, when, coming in contact with that gentle man, it knocked him down, inflicting in juries which rendered him insensible for some time afterwards. Mr Jones was after wards removed to the Bank of New Zealand, of which he is an official, where he remains in a very precarious state. It was found that his head was badly cat and bruised, and it is feared that the spine is also in jured, as the lower limbs are paralysed. m BOUNTIFUL RAINS.—ACTIVITY AT SuVA.

Levpka, Aug. 27.

The rains which set in before the ; departure of the last mail steamer have been general and abundant throughout the group. The brown scorched hillsides are beautifully green again, the crop of growing sugar-cane looks fresh and vigorous,aud the inhabitants of our new capital at Suva are enabled to wash themselves once more. That metropolis is now fall of bustle and activity. Stores and houses are going up in all directiens—one continuous hammer clang resounds from dawn to dark; and when the rubbish and remnants inseparable from construction shall have been carted off, Suva, looked at from a distance, will have quite a respectable appearance. Not, like hersnpplanted sister lievuka, has she slowly and painfully attained her growth through years of toil and even daDger. Full-formed, at a bound, she has sprung into existence from the strong will of Sir Arthur Gordon. Though private enterprise is building her nouses with wondrous activity, nearly all the loan to which she looked for her public works bas been already appropriated, and the balance in hand is not enough even to bring a supply of water into the town. The noble bay, at the head of which the township lies, affords a safe and commodious harbour to all vessels which can manage to get within it. There is no difficulty in accomplishing this feat when the ordinary winds are blowing; but, owing to the strong set down upon the outer reef, a good commanding breeze is essential to sailing vessels either approaching or leaving the port. A fact in support of this assertion is the recent loss of the schooner Meg Merrilies, which, after being towed well out to sea by the steamer Thistle, drifted back, and was thrown upon the reef in spite of all that could be done to save her.

MURDER AT NEW GUINKA.

A grief-stricken widow, Mrs Klinesmith, has come back to us from New Britain with the tidings of the murder of her husband and other white men by the savages there. Mr Klinesmith was well known in Fiji, where he spent a considerable time collect ing birds, &c, for the Godeffroy Museum ; and the sad news of his death has added intensity to "the general feeling of indigna tion at the state of affairs between the two laces in these seas. The very men who were foremost in exposing and de nouncing the misdeeds of the kidnappers are now quite as earnest in calling for justice on the other side—a fact of which the gentlemen belonging to the Aborigines' Protection Society may profitably take note, Doubtless, the natives do not kill a white man without a motive for killing him, but we are learning something more a» to what their motives are. In poor Lieutenant

Bower's case* the island '■' Achilles sulking in his tent" had to be appeased by the presentation of a skull, and so a white man ■is killed to furnish the wherewithal. Biit we have missionary evidence that the natives are now beginning to kill white men as a means of earning an honourable distinction atddhg their fellows. From that evidence we learn that it savage orator stirred up a noble spirit of emulation in the dusky breasts of his auditors, by taunting them With the fact that they had never killed a white man, whereas he nnd his people had put quite a number of them out of the way. This tact shows us what is probably a ne-\V -and what certainly is a very powerful—incentive to the murder of our countrymen; and if mattere are allowed to go on as at present, we shall soon find "Your father never killed a white man" used as a common taunt between the islanders in their quarrels, just as "X"our father never savv white mans land " is used among the Rotumans, that nation of sailors, at the present dayi RECEPTION OF tfHE PkINCES. Great preparations have been made for the coming of the young Princes. A cottage has been built "for them adjoining Government House; the Levuka ladies have imported all manner of adornment from Sydney, and the natives have long been making themselves ready for exhibi tion. Picked men from the varibUa districts will perform a choice selection of raekes (Fijian dances), of, which the Princes if they sit out the entire programme, will probably have nlore th»n enough, for these displays, though highly picturesque and generally interesting, become a weariness to both flesh and spirit after the first hour of them. The mail steamer Uunga, Captain Saun ders, arrived at Suva on the 10th, and was ordered into quarantine for 13 days. Much indiguatipn has been caused by the discovery that papers connected with land claims here are in the hands of the Governor of New Zealand. The "Fiji Times" pub lished a very strong leader on the matter, and we have most assuredly not hoard the last of it. It seems that Sir Arthur Gordon ms still some mysterious connection with Fiji, but it remains to be seen whether this will justify his removing those papers from the colony.

THE SUEZ MAIL.

(FKOM THE " EUKOPEAS MAIL " JULY 29.)

The Emigrant and Colonists' Aid Corpora tion notify that owing to the very severe depression in trads which has existed in New Zealand during the past year, the sales of land have been inconsiderable, and the profit realised therefrom has been absorbed in the working expenses. Suffi cient profits were, however, carried forward from the previous year to enable the directors to recommend the payment of a dividend at the rate of 10 per cent, per annum, and to carry forward £3,154 to next year. The directors of the New Zealand Land Corporation invite subscriptions for the balance of the £100,000 7 per cent. (A) Preference shares of £10 each, interest at 7 per cent, per annum being allowed on all calls in advance from the date of payment.

In view of the meeting, the annual re port of the National Bank of New Zealand (limited) has been issued. It states that the net available balance is £25,695, from which £10,500 has already been divided among the shareholders. It is now pro posed to make a further payment of £14,000, making in all 7 per cent, for the year, and leaving £1,105 to be carried for ward.

" Anglo« Australian " writes \ " The news of the visit of the Maori King and his fol lowers to the English settlements was well received here, as suggesting the breaking up of an isolation that was deemed to be undesirable, if not dangerous. It would be well if the natives and the Europeans could work side by side with a view to mutual success. The only drawback to such a desirable state of things seems to be the doubts and suspicions entertained by the former, but the recent action of the Maori King puts matters in a more favourable light, and is therefore a subject for con gratulation. The Government is to be con gratulated on having brought this desirable issue about."

The pioneer steamer of the Messagerics Maritimes bas just been launched at La Crotat in France. This line,ns our readers are well aware, has contracted to carry the French mails'ftorn Marseilles to New Cale donia, the contract to extend over fifteen years, for a subsidy of £131,000. The pro posed line of route is from Marseilles vift Suez, Aden, Reunion, Mauritius, King George's Sound, Adelaide, Melbourne, and Sydney, to New Caledonia. First-class boats are guaranteed for the service, and 13 voyages are to be performed tier annum. The dimensions of the steamer just launched, which is called the Natal, are—Length, 130 metres, 85 centimetres; breadth, 12 metres, 7 centimetres. The compound machine, with three cylinders.is of 2,400-horse power. Sbe will carry 670 tons of coal tor ordinary purposes, but has room tor 530 tons more for longer yoyages. For goods she has room for 13,500 cubic metres. Of passengers, sbe can receive first-class, 79; second class, 76; third class, 60; fourth class, about 350. Judging by the circuitous route to be adop- I ted, expedition in the carriage of the malls is apparently quite a secondary considera tion compared with the prospect of opening out a new channel for the disposal of French goods. Fearful Storm in Shetland Js lands.—dlreat Loss of Life. A fearful storm has swept over the Shet land Islands, resulting in the destruction of property and a loss of life unprecedented in the Worth since 1832. The storm burst with a suddenness that gave no preliminary warning. The fisher boats were far at sea; those prosecuting herring fishing had their nets set, and those at cod fishing had lines set. The storm prevented the fishermen from hauling their lines or nets, and a great loss of fishing material was sustained. It is nowascertained beyond doubt that ten boats have been lost in the Isles. These are native boats, locally known as "sixerns," that is, pulling six oars, but also using lug sail, and generally having a crew of six men each. One of the boats belonging to Unst, the most northern of the Shetland Islands, six belonging to the island of Yell, two to Feedaland, and one to Mossbauk, were missing from Fetlar. News from another district states that a boat belonging to Havera, a small island close to Scalloway, has also been wrecked, thus making, so far as is y«t ascertained, eleven boats ami sixty three lives lost. One boat had a narrow escape, It was one of the large full-decked boats, and the crew having set their . nets decided to stick by them. The boat rode out the storm, although the craft was ottcn covered by the' heavy seas. When the storm abated, the men found an extraordinarily heavy take of herrings in the nets, and the boat was unable to take all on board, even though the ballast was thrown overboard. After taking on board about 70 crans of herrings, valued at over £60, the crew handed over the remainder of their nets to an Irish boat belonging to Dublin, at present fishing in Shetland, that came to render assistance. The scenes witnessed at the landing-places and along the sea coast are heartrending. In Shetland it is customary for father and sons, and perhaps other relatives, to fish in the same boat, and thus several families all closely related are deprived of their bread winners. As a rule, the people are ex ceedingly poor, and the destitution caused by the calamity among the 200 to 300 dependent widows and children will be fearful, as their neighbours are mostly as poor as themselves.

SMALL-POX AND VACCINA TION.

TBk " Herald" this morning, raises a curious controversy, by exclaiming against the action of the Board of Health in send ing to Sydney for a calf inoculated with the small-pox virus as a means of procuring lymph for vaccination purposes. The old lady, who has so often distinguished herself in the discovery of marcs' nests; asserts, positively, that this is a most unwise and lethal proceeding, as the lymph obtained from au animal so inoculated is sure to produce the true and viru lent small ■ pox in any persons who are so unfortunate as to be vaccinated with it. Before people will endorse this de nunciation of tho Board of Health and rely implicitly upon the " Herald's" dictum, they will, we presume, require to be satisfied of the extent and char acter of its medical knowledge and until these are shewn to be natisfactroy, it will be generally taken for granted that the Board of Health knew what it was about, when it resolved upon the importation of the in fected animal. An inquiry into the details of the transaction,and a reference to skilled authorities, does not seem to strengthen our contemporary's positively stated opinion. In the first place, the Board has simply acted in pursuance of the following recom mendation from Dr Stockwell (Health Officer for the district), communicated on the Ist of the present month:—"An at tempt should be made to induce all persons to be vaccinated,-and the introduction of a little small-pox matter iuto a calf in Sydney would be a source of true animal vaccine, which would no doubt prove attractive to those who think animal vaccine necessary and would induce them to voluntarily Bubiuit toiton the arrival of tho animal in Auckland) Should, unfortunately, the disease again ap pear here, it appears to me probable that by these measures (vaccination and isola tion of patients) its duration would be short; I have, etc., Wsi. Stockwell."

It is, therefore,the advice of a professional man holding a responsible official position that is challenged, and not merely the resolution of tho Board. Let the doctor and the learned and valorous scribe there argue the point out for the edification of the public. Our contemporary's contention through out is that lymph obtained from an animal inoculated from a diseased subject is sure to produce in the vaccinated person small pox in its unmodified and virulent form, but not only are the recognised medical authorities opposed to this statement, but even the " Herald's " own authorities dis prove it. For instance, it refers to an cx« periment made on a cow .by Dr. Bonder land of Barmen, as demonstrating the truth of the contention that small»pox, in its passage through the body of the animal, re mains small-pox, and returns to the original state of small-pox when re-introduced into the human species. The case will be found recorded in the Eneyolopoedica Brtiannica (a copy of which is kept at the Free Library) under the caption of "Vaccination," and a perusal of it will suffice to shew that it and indeed tbe whole tenor of the artele, are quite antagonistic to the position taken up by the "Herald." In proof of this we may quote the passage referred to:

—" In 1830, Br] Sonderland of Barmen, announced that he could produce the true vaccine disease in the cow at pleasure by covering the animal with the blankets from the bed of a patient who had died of small pox, and by hanging them up around it that it might breathe the effluvia arising from them. In a few days, he says, the animal became sick and pustules appeared, on the udder and other parts, precisely similar to the cow-pox vesicles, and filled like them with lymph. This lymph transferred to the human subject, was found to produce the genuine vaccine vesicle, together with the usnal constitutional disturbance, and to protect the individual from the small pox virus or contagion. In fact, such a change was effected on the small pox matter during its passage through the Bystem of the cow, that it was converted from the virulent and fatal into the mild and safe disease." Why has the " Herald" suppressed all this? Its omission is rather significant. Again "Mr K. Ceely surgeon of the Buckingham Infirmary, in oculated heifers with the matter of small pox, and found it to produce genuine vaccine vesicles which ran their course like the natural or inoculated cow-pox and fur nished limpid lymph for vaccination. * * * * In fact it does not in any respect whatever differ from ordinary vaccine lymph as obtained from the natural vaccine vesicle." Authorities may be cited in numbers, and illustrations multiplied to rebut the "Herald's" dictum and establish the fact that the lymph taken from an animal inoculated with the smallpox virus is both safe and effective. It produces modified variola from which no danger arises nor pain or sickness ensues.

The subject of Spiritualism has been brought before the Archbishops of the Church of England, and the Spiritualists are elated with the -idea that it will gain much dignity from being seriously con sidered by these able prelates, even if they do condemn it.
