Lady Brassey means to write a book on ' the Australian cruise in the Sunbeam. New Zealand will provide material for a special work, . ■

The retrenchment cry has reached the Celestialregions. The Chinese Government) have directed that the salaries of the mem bers of its embassies abroad—which are Very handsome—shall be cut down by 20 per cent, all round.

A new and most' wonderful musical in strument is announced. It is a harp played by pianoforte keys. Lady Brassey says she doesn't like prudery, and that the Australian women have more of the article than the Ameri can?!.

There is at Carrick, Tasmania, a man aged 114 years. And yet, according to a Launceston paper, "he has never been a teetotaller."

The death is announced of Mr Jas. B. Morgan, of Gisborne, who was formerly a member of the firm of Monk and Morgan in Auckland. Deceased leaves a lai-ge family.

Bad for the tram-car. At Dunedin yes terday a tram-car ran into a loaded railway truck. One of the tram horses was fatally injured, and the passengers in the car were badly shaken. ■

Mr Dibbs, of-Sydney, who was lately converted to Protectionist principles', states that, as six of the colonies are protectionist,' New South Wales should meet them, ana it would be the means Of bringing-- the whole Australian group nearer one universal tariff.

The Government of New South Wales are going to give the House another oppor tunity of considering the resolution passed that all ex-members of Parliament have free passes for life on the railways. ■ . A wicked, boy got into a ■ fight with his father, bit his nose off and swallowed it. He was arrested and arraigned before the court. "Is this your son■?" asked uhe judge. "1 am sorry to say it is." "1' think I detect some resemblance," re marked th« judge. " Yes," said the father, mournfully, "he certainly has my nose."

Should be "sent to Coventry." Walter Neale, a solicitor accused of absconding' from Coventry with L 3,000 of other people's money, has been arrested at Melbourne. ' ' A farmc? once cal'ed his cow Zephyr, She stiemecS such an amiablfe hepKyfl; ' ■■•' \ When the farmer drew near, !r; w She kicked off his car, , • And now the old farmer's much dephyr.'.; ,

. Lady Brassey had scarcely been. five minutes in Melbourne before her, assistance. was solicited in favour! of the women's suffrage" movement. Her' ■ ladyship, was surprised at the request). She thinks ;thab women- actually govern ,the world now, and if they had Parliamentary votes they probably would not do so. . Triplets came to the family, and when little Billy saw them all in a. .row* says ha to his.ma says he : " Oh, mother,' wich of 'em are we,.-coin' to keep." We have heard this before, but it is a'story of which no ono could ever tire. ■.. . . ~

Negotiations for tlie purchase of the Melbourne Telephone Exchange Company's business by the Government are approach ing a settlement, Advance Australia ! A woman residing a few miles from Newcastle (N.S.W.) lias just presented . her . husband with their seventeenth child..
