WELLINGTON.—This province has set an examPl.e
which, if followed by the rest, will deprive our own Erin-
gra,tion Conimissioners of their occupation. By means of
their own agents in this country, it is proposed that a Pt!"
ference be given to the friends and relatives of those ivoie
have already immigrated. The new-comer and his friend'
on whose recommendation he is sent for, are to give pro-
missory notes, payable at one and two years, for the pas-
sage out, but for which immediate payment can be enforced
in case either of the parties are about to quit the province.
This plan is very simple and practical, and similar to one
adopted by Mrs. Chisholm. Amongst the many emigra-
tion schemes, we know of none so likely to work well as
this.
NELSON.—The inhabitants of this district are in the
fair way of marring their immigration scheme by thein-
sertion of a clause for the enforcement of contracts that
may be made between the master who imports and the
man who is imported. A surer method of creating
and discontent was never invented. The immigrant must
be free to work for whom and for what he chooses, and
then the chances are that he will prefer the master to
whom he is under a pecuniary obligation. Let him, how.-
ever, once entertain the notion that he is made a serf, as It
were, by his bond, and he at once proves a hard bargain.
CANTERBURY.—Christchurch exhibits its progressive-
ness in starting a second " organ of public opinion" in the
shape of the Christchurch Standard, which, we presume,
is to wage an internecine war with the Lyttelton

of the various stalls had their names in gas, amongst

whilst Mr. Corkhill, game and poultry dealer, had a
pretty little device, a salmon illuminating the front of his
stall. In addition to the various ornaments, a profusion
of evergreens, including quantities of mistletoe, neatly
adorned the various stalls of the building ; the butchers,like

their brethren in Liverpool, taking fhe lead in display.
Mr. Fullard exhibited a splendid Durham ox, winner of
the first prize at the Peterborough Agricultural Show,
fed by F. Fullard, Thorney Abbey, Cambridge; a fine
Hereford heifer, weighing 40 score, and only 2 years old,
one which deserves especial notice, fed by Mr. E. Crain;

exceedingly fine beeves and a bullock, fed by J. Gerard,
Esq., of Gibstown, Ireland ' • he had also 18 very prime

meat of first-rate quality. Mr. Heathcock displayed six
very fine Hereford beasts, and twelve sheep, all of which
looked remarkably well. Mr. Knott had also a capital
show, there being seven fine heifers, and eighteen wether
sheep, all of prime quality. Mr. J. Gaskell had a good
display of meat, and exhibited a very fine pig, four months
old. Mn Walters exhibited capital meat, and amongst his
stock was a large Berkshire pig, weighing about 17
score, fed and bred by Mr .Rimmer, of the Old Hall,

decorations alluded to, many of the stalls were ornamented

Initials, crowns, and stars formed conspicuous ornaments.
Asi, on several previous occasions, the stall occupied by Mr.
r thoralinson presented many attractions, and was attended
"Y a numerous host of admiring spectators, and no trivial
"ratter of purchasers. His stock was large, and included
28 11 ;
,7; 4.'1'41e Galloway and West Highland bullocks ; 58 Che-
viot, Southdown, and Irish sheep; two house lambs, six
fine calves, and eight pigs. The cattle were from the
estates of William Broadfoot, Esq., Wigtown, Scotland;
Arthur Pollock, Esq., Mountains Town, Ireland Law-
rence Duffy, Esq., Mountains Town, County Meath,
Ireland • and Mr. Thomlinson's own farm, Broad-green,
Childwail. Amongst the stock was a gigantic pig, weigh-
ing 48 score and 8 lbs., which contrasted remarkably with
another, a real pigmy, weighing only 17 lbs. To the
curious' in such matters a fine Indian sheep, having four
horns was submitted for inspection ; also a sheep from the
E
of Good Hope, with an enormous tail weighing 25 lbs.
The stall was brilliantly ornamented with designs in gas,
representing a crown, and on each side " V. A.," with the
name of the proprietor of the establishment. There was
au admirable display of well-fed meat at the shop of Mr.
.r
oWthian, fed on the estates of various celebrated cattle
feeders in Scotland. The stall was illuminated with the
?Wner's name in gas jets, underneath which was an ox's
nead and horns. Amongst other stocks of meat worthy of
notice were those of Mr. Hinton, Mr. Pierce, Mr. Woods,
Itc,r3l`Guffie, Mr. Tunna, Mr. Luya, Mr. Meadows, and Mr.
;,"3.,ngh, the latter exhibiting some very fine specimens,
a"nuldin two sheep fed by Mr. Fullard, of Thorney
Abbey, g
, Cambridgeshire, and some fine heifers from the
xtliate of R. C. Naylor, Esq., Hooton-hall. The stock of
7,,r. T. Fletcher included several prime Scots Galloways,
-he", by Mr. Tennant, of Kirkcudbright, and also some
Prize Southdowns, bred and fed by Mr. Fullard, Thorney
brilliantmridgsh The stall was illuminated with a
tar. One of the largest beasts in the market was
shown by Mr. Wm. Knight; it was a huge ox, weighing no
animal
than 80 score, and produced 11 score of fat. The
:Lbnal was bred and fed on the estate of Lord Hill, Hawk-
'lle, Salop. Mr. Fletcher's stall was also illuminated
With a gas cc V. A.," and a crown in the centre. Mr. Lyon,
;tr. Hindle, Mr. Gibbons, and Mr. Dentith, exhibited
;Ira e fine beasts, and there were many in the stalls of
; '
"er butchers throughout the market. There were ex-
euent displays of meat at several of the private butchers

It:able to particularise. Mr. Charles Lowcock, No. 80,
Mon-road had some fine specimens of beef, mutton,
and Pork ; there were several four-year-old wethers, Gallo-
4ay bullocks, and Highland Scots, purchased from the
Gallo-
°t cattle salesmen Mr. W. A. Lamb, Mr. J. Gibbons,
and Mr. W. Roan, who sell for most of the large Scotch
Fraziera. Mr. Bnks, Berry-street, displayed some excel-

supply of pork was generally abundant, but it seemed
have been more the intention of all parties to have
useful rather than over-fed specimens, and the display was
accordingly more gratifying.
The greengrocers and fruit venders exhibited much skill
I:tu good taste in the arrangement of their goods, while
,en the more common displays of turnips, carrots, and
Z?lerY were made to contribute to the general effect. Mr.
.90rge Taylor had his stall arranged with a fine eye to
net. His display of fruits was extensive and rich, and
gthe decorations with which his stall was ornamented
'Were attractive. These consisted chiefly of splendid fes-
toons, and gas illuminations.
The stock of poultry and game was large, and highly
interesting to epicures. Foremost in this department was
Mr. Glendenning, whose shop was literally covered with
everys_ article tempting to the taste. Mr. Griffin and Mr
41`Avoy had also large stocks, the latter having re
ceived, in one day no less than three tons of poultry, game

The other butchers in the township had also exten-

mentioned Messrs. Kynaston and Harrison, of Grange-
lane, where immense quantities of meat were exhibited.
Mr. Kynaston had a monster pig, fed by Mr. Jones, of

" But let's to bed : perhaps some nice young man
May yet arrive to do the best he can,
To kill this monster who infests the land,
Then boldly of my father claim my hand."
She then retires, attended by her nurses and dams,

The music changes to a nigger tune, supposed to be heard
in the distance. Almidor, the black king of Morocco,
enters with six nigger minstrels, each of them carrying a
banjo. They range themselves before the balcony, and
his sable majesty apostrophises the Princess Sabra, whose

shadow he sees' on. the window blind, and he determines,
in order to mollify her heart, to serenade her. He and
his minstrels sing and dance, and at the end of the
capering the first nurse appears on the balcony, and
hurls down a washing basin, which prostrates both the
king and his attendants. Almidor rises in a rage, and
orders his minstrels to " pick up some stones and smash
the winders." The order is obeyed. The two nurses,
armed with warming-pans, attack Almidor and his black
minstrels, and the mele'e is going on, when the scene
changes to a hermitage. A poor old hermit, with white
beard, enters with tottering gait and leaning on his staff.
He sits down to breakfast, consisting of "one glass of
water and two little peas," over which he soliloquises thus :

" Of temperance I surely am the king,
For total abstinence from everything

a every day my rule."

Knocks are heard, and St. George appears, tells the hermit
that he is a traveller, and that " his breakfast he would
share." The hermit inquires whether he is " a bona fide
traveller ?" and upon being assured of that fact he invites
his guest to sit down and partake of his fare. They fall
into conversation. St. George asks what news there is in
these outlandish parts, whereupon the hermit tells him
that there is a dragon in the neighbourhood who darts

nes from his nostrils, and '

at dinner every day a virgin

he must devour," and such vast expenses had he caused
that " the king had doubled that hard income tax." Upon
being told that the king's beautiful daughter Sabra was
doomed to be the monster's meal, and that any knight
ho could slay him would be rewarded with the hand of
the princess, St. George asks, " Is this fair daughter
worth such deadly fighting ?" He is assured that she is,
and moreover the hermit shows her to him. St. George
regards her with delight, and resolves to save her. The
next scene discloses the den of the dragon, which St.
George approaches, mounted on his charger and carrying
his lance. The monster comes out, and they fight, the
knight obtaining a glorious victory. The next scene is a

street in Memphis. - St. George arrives with the dragon's
head on a truncheon, kneels at the feet of Ptolemy, and
claims the Princess Sabra as his reward for the service he
has performed. The father of the beauty vows that she

shall never be the wife of cursed infidel, whereupon Almi-
dor, the black King of Morocco, says—

" Give me the head; I'll have it, or, at least,
I'll swear 't was I that killed the fiery beast."
Hereupon the black guards attempt to seize St. George.
He knocks them down with the dragon's head. Egyptian
guards meet with a similar- fate. Almidor is knocked
down by the knight, who is then about to be attacked by
Ptolemy, when Sabra makes her appearance, and on her
knees thus intercedes for her father :
"Stranger, I love you, whatsoe'er you are—
I'll love you more if you'll not hurt papa."

St. George, " for her sake," spares Ptolemy ; by this time
Almidor has recovered his legs, and, taking advantage of
the attention paid by the knight to the princess, causes
the guards to seize him and wrest the dragon's head from
his grasp. He is dragged away by them. Sabra is about
to run to his rescue, when she is held back by Ptolemy and
Almidor, and then she invokes succour from the gods.
The scene now changes to the Grand Hall of Chivalry.
Britannia is discovered seated on a throne, bearing her
lance and shield. The Genius of the Mersey here claims
to be protector of St George, and delivers her prophecy
and effects the pantomimic transformation :

"Release the valiant knight, and be it known
Henceforth my river claims him as her own.
For on her banks a noble town shall rise,
Famed for its merchants and their enterprise;
Whose wealth a nation's destinies shall rule,
And known in after times as Liverpool ;
Where in her mighty docks, with flag unfurled,
Shall ride huge ships from all parts of the world ;
Whose basins wide, whose buildings high and fair
'l, -crland'9 ' shall bear

lie name of 1 nl4.- - a
While one great Hall, the country's boast and pride,
With you, St. George, will share its lasting fame,
For that shall also own your peerless name.
But first you have a motley course to run,
Egypt's fair daughter you have fairly won.To test your truth, and prove your love sincere,
St. George must now as Harlequin appear."
St. George, changed to Harlequin, receives from Britannia
a cap and wand. The cap put on, he is told, will make
him invisible when pursued, while the magic wand will
" from all. his life defend?' Sabra, delivered
from the black king's will, is made to trip with her
knightly lover as Columbine, while Ptolemy, " as food for
laughter," is doomed " as Pantaloon this pair to hobble
after," Almidor following as " the knavish servant
Clown." The changes effected, Britannia bids them
" Away, the motley chase commence,
" Until we meet again a twelvemonth hence."
Then follow a variety of comic scenes. The last scene but
one in the pantomime is the "kennel of the dogs of war."
The barking of large dogs is heard, and through the
gloom are seen the heads of dogs of monstrous size. Har-
lequin and Columbine enter, having lost their way. Har-
lequin is about to waive his wand to discover where they
are, when a Russian bear enters and grasps him, bruin
fashion. At the same time, a huge dog bounds forward,
and seizes Harlequin's cap in his mouth, and Harlequin,
being deprived of his magic wand, becomes helpless.
Clown and Pantaloon now make their appearance. Clown
seizes Harlequin, and exclaims —" I've got him," where-
upon bruin releases Harlequin, and commences hugging
Clown, who changes his tune, finding he has " caught a
Tartar," and roars out, " Oh, he's got me." The dog
runs off with Harlequin's cap in his mouth. The Genius
of the Mersey appears to the rescue of Harlequin and
Columbine, and prophesies the final muzzling of the
bear—

" Hold! though the war-dogs of that rugged Bear
Have marr'd your happiness, let him beware
While lam here to save you. You hare proved
Well worthy of the lady you have loved.
Henceforth be happy, while to all I'll show
The deeds that shall a tyrant overthrow.
While Inkerman and Alma's noble story,
Well worthy of Great France and England's glory,
Shall be but preludes to a victory
That will the huge Bear safely muzzle see."

At the ADELPIII, the pantomine is founded upon the
favourite old nursery tale of " Cinderella, or the Little
Glass Slipper," The opening of the pantomime is written
by Mr. John Courtney, who is also the author of
the pantomime at the Surrey theatre for the present
season, together with " Sinbad the Sailor," produced at the
Adelphi last year. It embraces all the interest of the
opera, with the broad burlesque so necessary for Christmas
fun and festivity. The first scene finds the Prince of Pep-
perminto, having been thrown into slumber by the Fairy
Queen Crystalline, dreaming of Cinderella; he awakes,
and is drawn by a fairy chorus to the Baron's chateau. In
the interval of his travel thither, there is a beautiful fairy
scene, with rising fountains, and a collection of local
" hits" are given in conversational chat between the Queen
and her court. The Prince, in search of his hunting com-
panions, reaches the Baron's residence, and is received in
due form. We have now the oddities of the Baron and
Baroness, with her daughters ; then Cinderella in the
kitchen, persecuted by the sisters and assisted by the
Fairy Queen. Cinderella departs for the ball to the illu-
minated gardens of the palace of the prince—the latter
falls in love—the clock strikes twelve—and the injunction
of the Fairy fills Cinderella with horror, and she flies.
The Prince now orders his heralds to proclaim the lost
slipper, and follows to the Baron's castle. The sisters fail
in their efforts to make the slipper fit them, owing to the
pressure of corns and bunions. Cinderella is ordered by
the Prince to try it on : it fits, and all is happiness by the
intervention of the Fairy Queen, who appears with all her
court in her Panonian temple. The opening is full of
beautiful scenery and mechanical contrivances, and paro-
dies of popular airs, together with choice morceaux from
the well-known and favourite opera..
As a specimen of the rhyme we insert the fi
