RAROTONGA.

Trado and Annexation. Blatters,

The Queen of Rarotonga is shortly expected to arrivo on a visit to New Zealand in res ponse to an invitation from tho Government, and in these circumstances increased intorost is felt in the Cook Group of Islands of which Rarotonga is the chief. An Auck land gentleman has jußt received a letter

from a rosidotit of Rarotonga from which we make the following extracts ;—

I havo no doubt the commercial delegates who recently visited us wore favourably impressed with Rarotonga, and will spoak rapturously of its capabilities of develop ment. 1 havo thought a little upon tho matter of trade in tho South Seas, though I have not gone actually into the particu lars of loss or gain on any particular article of commorce. STou will agree with me that South Sea Island trade is now in a very low State ; cotton especially is vory low in the price lists. As prices go up at IJome, so trade will probably revive out here. Tons of Rarotonga cotton will be wasted this year on account of the uncertainty as to tho prices to bo given. Tho mer chants wish to buy it at 4 cents per lb., half of which is to be paid in Chili coin, and half in " trado "of any kind. The poople of this group are not willing to givo up tho old price, viz., 5 cents, per lb. At present I fuel suro that (I) owing to low prises at Home, (2) attempts to lower prieo and consequent want of pickors for cotton, and (3) tho small amount of land in cultiva tion and tho paucity of cultivators, very littlo monoy con bo made in South irea trade at the presont time.

Thoro aro plenty of peoplo in (ho field, and competition is very keen, even in this group. A South Sen Trading Company is not at all wanted, for already the natives do almost as muoh as they can do, and there are plenty to buy what thoy can produce. But you will notice that lam far from saying that the land produces as muoh as it might do; What is wanted is (1) annexation by Now Zealand. Native Government is caprv ious, feeble, and apt to be influenced by other considerations than abstract justice. (2) Trade will then follow the flag. It seoms to me this is tho best plan. Surely New Zealand would never permit tho Fronch to annox this group; they would dominate Now Zealand. At present the greater part of the produce of this group goes to Now Zealand ; but if the French were allowed to annex us, all would go to Tahiti. The French are evidently bent on annexing all the islands of the Society, Cook, and Austral groups, thus making Tahiti the centre of a oirclo all the radii of which converge on the common centre. I say these things because I am convinced it would be more for the interest of these islands and their inhabitants to bo joined on to New Zealand. Tho group would soon pay its own expenses. The New Zealand group may hardly think it worth their while to annex tho Cook Islands, aa the area of the group is small. On Mangaia, Atiu, Mitiero, Mauke, and tho islands north of the group, viz., Penrhyn, Pierson, Humphreys, and Danger Islands, there is no land, or very littlemore than the natives require for their own wants. On the northern islands cotton would not grow, as tho soil is sandy and barren ; while in Mangaia, Atiu, and Mauke, the coral shows up plentifully, and there is much land unavailable for cultiva tion. Aitutaki and Rarotonga are the only ■islands where there is much spare land; and even here Europeans do not seem to care to do much bodily work, as in the hot months tho climate is very exhausting.

CABLE NEWS.

(SPECIAL TO MELBOURNE " Af_.")

The Caroline Islands Dispute,

I London, 15th Sept. No final settlement has yot boen arrived at between Germany and Spain with regard to the occupation of tho Caroline Islands. In the event of Spain persisting in her refusal Ito remit the question to arbitration, it is probable that Germany . will summon a Conference, comprising delegates of tho Powers interested—as was done in tho case of the Congo question—to decide upon international rights, and to arrive at some agreement for regulating trade and annexation in the Pacific. Pending the settlement of the question, the discharge of the German naval reserves has been post poned, and the German warships have been ordered to assemble. Resignation of a Bishop. Dr. Marsden, Church of England Bishop lof Bathurst, has resigned. A Famous Elephant. Intelligence has been received that tho famous elephant "Jumbo," for yoars a familiar object at tho Zoological Gardens, and which was purchased by Mr Barnum, is dead. Tho Agent-General of Victoria. Mr Murray Smith is determined tor .sign the ollico of Agent-General, and will only retain it until tho Victorian Government find it convenient to appoint a successor. The Telegraphic Conference. The sittings of the Telegraphic Confer ence havo terminated. The Conference is adjourned until 188 C, when it will meet in Paris. It is expected that the proposed reduction in cable rates for press messages will come into force in January. Mr Gladstone's Manifesto. The prose, in alluding to Mr Gladstone's manifesto, oxpresses the opinion that while it will tond to secure the union of the Liberal party, it is not of a nature to inspire enthusiasm. *' Mail Steamers and Quarantine. The outward mail steamers will for the present discontinue having any communi cation with Egypt to avoid all risk of delay in consequence of quarantine.

NEWMARKET SCHOOL CONCERT.

An OKcellentconcert was given last Monday evening by the head-master of the Mount Hobson Boys' School in the Newmarket Hall, the proceeds of which are to be dovoted to tho purchase of books for a school library. Mr J. M. Lennox occupied the chair. The children of the school sang several choruses in a very creditable manner. Miss C. Fleming, Miss Agnes Cannel, and Miss Annie Nash, pupils of the school, also sang solos, v;h,ich were listened to with great pleasure. Th^i following friends kindly assisted in the programme:—Misses Kilgour and F. Cannpl, and Messrs Moore and Brook. A pleasing feature of the programme waa tho distribution of prizes, kindly given by Mr J. M. Lennox and His Worship the Mayor of Newmarket. The prizes wore competed for in a very difficult examination. Judg ing from the number of marks obtained in the examination, tho school will do very creditably in the coming standard examination.

This is far short of tho actual receipts, and the par ticulars of expenditure are also incomplete. Having talked the matter ovor with several members who havo the wolfare of tho Club at heart, it is considered a matter of great impoitanco that tho horsoowners and sub scribers to the Club, and the public generally, who havo hitherto eb liberally contributed to the funds of the Club, should have a correct account of receipts and expenditure. The following statement will give % good idea of the doings of the Club during tho last racing year; but not having the neces sary books and papers tq prepare a correct balance-sheet, it is consequently not as accurate as could bo wished. It will show the figures as read at tho annual meeting to be very misleading. Any of the items contained in the sheet, showing the receipts to be in rough figures, £2,366 4s, can be ex plained at any timo. It is a very unpleasant duty to havo to challenge tho balance-sheet, but in tho interest of fair sport and tho supporters of tho Club, I am compelled to do it. —Yours, etc., T.

P.S.—The above Stock needs no comment. The Goods are of First-class quality, being part of the Stock of the Melbourne Branch of the well-known Firm of W. & A. McARTHUR, of London. S. COOMBES AND CO. IfEW ZEALAND FROZEN MEAT & STORAGE COMPANY, LIMITED. CAPITAL, £200,000; CALLED UP, £100,000. DIRECTORS: A. Bun, Esq. D. L. Murdoch, Esq, J. Banks, Esq. L. D. Nathan, Esq. P. Comiskey, Esq. Hon. J, Williamson, Sib F. Whitaker, X C.M.G. The Company begs to notify to the public that the works at Auokland and the Waitara have now been completed, and constitute the most extensive Meat-preserving and Freez ing Works in Now Zealand. WHOLESALE MEAT MARKET AND SHIPPING DEPOT Is now open at the Company's Works at the Railway Wharf, where Town and Country orders will be attended to with the utmost promptness and despatch. The Company can rofor with confidence to tho superior quality ef its Prime Meat, as selected for the market from large quantities of first-class West Coast stock, dealt with at tho Company's Works, Waitara. SALT BEEF. Special attention is directed to the Company's brand in this line, which, with the faci lities afforded by the cold-air process, can be cured in mild pickle, and the necessity of I cutting up in small pieces obviated. As contractors for H.M. Navy, here and in Sydney, large stocks are kept on hand. [ BACON-CURING. The Cooling Chambers for Bacon-curine at the Company's Works in Auckland are now so far advanced that this New Industry has been commenced, and choice Hams and Bacon can be offered cured on the most modern principle. Particular attention will be paid to tho selection of Pigs for this use, and on no account will any except Dairy or Corn Fed Pigs be purchased, as it is purposed to build up a reputation for an Auckland Ham and Bacon Factory, MEAT-PRESERVING. This branch is equal to an output of 120,0001b5. per diem, aad the Company has the greatest confidence in recommending its PRESERVED MEATS | As superior to anything of the kind heretofore offered to the public. I Tho Company would specially coll attontion to the fact that the COMPRESSED CANNED BEEF AND MUTTON, PACKED IN THE SQUARE CAN (The right to which is patented), is the first sample from any part of the world that has been able to compete successfully in the London Markot with the best Chicago brands. Hitherto tho Colonial meats packed in tho round cans, although called compressed meats were only saleable in tho English markets, where a low price was the first consideration' but meats of the New Zealand Packing Company, submitted in competition for Admir alty supplies at Deptford Dockyard, wore awarded tho highest commendation, and placed on the. register of accopted brands. | The following extract from the lottor of the Company's Agents in London, the Now Zealand Loan and Mercantilo Agency Company (Limited), is reforred to, who write as follows : — «_ " We havo the Pleasure to hand you herewith an extract from a letter received from the War Office, Army Department:—" Samples of tho Poach Brand of the New Zealand Packing (.- • -uhmltted by you. have been testod and provod, and tho Brand will be added to the Seleoted List . of the Department." This now entitling you to tbe privilege of comp ting, we therefore tendered on your behalf at 60s 3d por 1121b; and to-day wore gratified to hear that the oflbr had been accopted. notwithstanding that it was 9d per cwt. higher than the leading American brands, showing that tne quality was fully appreciated." Consequent upon the temporary stoppage of production during the transfer of the Company's Meat-preserving Works from Auokland to Waitara, ond owing to the fact that the reserve which had been relied upon to meet current demands was taken by the •New South Wales Government for tho Soudan expedition, the Company has been unable to comply with numerous demands from customers, but are now prepared to execute with promptitude all orders with which they may be favoured. WHOLESALE BUTTER DEPOT. The Company is about to open a large Wholesale Butter Depdt at their Freezing Works, Railway Wharf. Cooling Chambers and the necessary plant are now being prepared. It is anticipated that with the appliances, cold-air chambers, and facilities for dealing with the ever-increasing surpluß, the Company will be able to offer a regular and satisfactory market for Dairy Produce. The Company's Managers of this branch aro cash purchasers of Prime Butter and Fresh Eggs. Communications m_y at once bo undressed to them. The utmost care will be taken in the selection of Butter for table use. This will be made up fresh every morning. Ab early as possible, wholesale orders of Butter will be delivered in refrigerated carts, so that retailers will be able to obtain a day's supply eaoh morning, and householders, by insisting upon being supplied with the Company s Brands of Butter, will obtain a table delicacy throughout the year. The department will be under the management of Messrs Glanvllle and Ellyett, whose Butter Business is being taken over by the Company. ACID AND MANURE WORKS. The Directors being very desirous of satisfying the publio as to the genuineness of their Manures, have requested Prof. Brown, of the Auckland University, to act as their Analyist, and ho has agreed to certify to the Analysis of tho Superphosphates. The Company will defray the cost of any Analysis of Manures purchased direct from them and duly sampled, the result of which may be proved to fall below the guaranteed standard, and also allow 4s 6d per ton per unit for the deficiency. Samples and further information may be obtained at the Works, Otahuhu, or at tho Office, Railway Wharf. STORING. Th. Company is now prepared to enter into arrangements for storing General MEK.iiiixDisEj etc., at current rateß, The Storks have a line of rail running through the building to the end of the Rail way Wharf, so that all cartage, either by rail or■ vesselj is avoided. All goods stored are aded and unloaded under cover, hydraulic lift and other appliances being available.
