NOTES AND COMMENTS.

Sonsidebablb interest has been evoked by >, the proposal laid before Sir J. Vogel the other v . day by tlio Chairman of the Taranaki County Council and others, for the formation of a - ■ road to connectWaitara and New Plymouth with the main Trunk Railway at : • Te Kuiti. The cost of the proposed road would be about £50,000, and Sir V; Julius Vozel appears favourably - dig- "' .. j-i posed towards tho work. Writing , on the subject, the "Daily News" of New Plymouth says : " We consider that it would bo a most; beneficial work, from a colonial point of view, as well as a local one, :J tbat the country which is at present lying unoccupied to the north of the While - > Cliffs and Mtkau should be opened for set- - tlement. Tlie Government have large, .; blocks o! land in this direction, and the money spent on the acquisition of the land will remain an unprofitable investment for the colony till a road has been made through it. Here is a cap itul chance for Mr Ballance's special settlement Echeme for the benefit ,:;,; of the unemployed in the colony. A series of suitable eettlementa along the pro-. - posed line of road through tbe King Country to connect with the railway would be far more successful, and of a : more permanent character, .than the settle- * ments in the north are likely to ; prove. We would suggest tbat on Mr Balance's arrival in New Plymouth, a deputation be , formed to wait upon him, and represent this ■ matter, in the some way n« the deputation - waited upon Sir Julius Vogel at Wajwera." The " Kews "goes on to advocate the mak- :v ing of the road to connect with the railway jj by • the special settlers, as it would. ', tnus bo done economically, and with out making any special drain upon the Government, and concludes by ; saying i:i "There Bbould be no delay in commencing this work, ns it is one of the greatest • moment, both to Auckland and Taranaki."

The etarUingly Midden death of Lord Iddosleigh (Sir Staffoid Northcote) appears to have deeply affected all classes of society at Home. Her Majesty the Queen at once despatched a telegram to tho family of the deconsed, expressing ber beartful sympathy with them in their sudden bereavement.

Lord Salisburry was prostrate .for .;' v hours after Lord Iddeeieigh's deatb, Mr Gladstone also was entirely prostrated by the intelligence, as Lord Iddesleigu was one of his oldest friends; He wired to tho ■ v Central Kews Agency that he was softly C grieved at the death of a statesman co emi nent, respected, and btloved. The canterf death was certified as syncope of the heart, - accelerated by the exertion of aßcendiug h the etaira, and also, to some extent, by SJ emotion arising from lecsnt political events. "*i Some Tory partir-ans HayS befiri exceedingly bitter in their coamiente on the deplorable occurrence For example, the "St. .-.- James's Gazette" attributed the death •; of Lord Iddeeleigh. to ,the mental tor-" ture ho suffered, consequent on hie f jectr ; i ment from the post of-Foreign" Secre-. " tary, and avowed that Lord Churchill, ':■} whoso hasty resignation caused the Mini terial difficulties, was morally guilty d£.";: his murder. It further'expreesed thei y\; opinion that (the strength of. the'Mittis^ stry has been Eerioutly affected by t&e painful eircamstances atteading the deathdt the late Sari. By all aceounteil would appear that-co event, has so profoundly moved the ,1; English people for many years, and the re- ' moval of such a man at a critical .time can- * ■ not fail to hiVe « greati itifluenc©, on the,: J political history of the country,
