men who have come to the country with q view
OF pushing their fortunes, some by trade, Others
by agriculture and by sheep farming. Tney have
neither taste nor aptitude to1 the business of
fighting, and they have naturally q great
reluctance 10 abandon their ordinary pursuits in
order to wage, at their own expense, what must
be an Improbable and may be an inelorlous
war against savage tribes. There has been no
time as yet for the growth OF a native European
population similar to the hardy pioneers of the
Western States of America, able to 5Instch the
Maores in their wn gifts, and to fight them In
their own way. The Government itself has no
money to spend upon regular army, and such
recruits as 1t is able to get for the militia are
mostly the scum and refuse OF the towns, and of
the older Australian settlements. 1t Is not sur
prisng, therefore, that the Insignificant colonial
forces have proved themselves incapable even
OF holding their own against the Maori insur-
gents. There has been, doubtless, good deal
eXceptionable feebleness and mlsniaDagement
displayed by the Central Government at Wei
ngton, in their conduct ofthis Maori campaign,
but theIe is more excuse than we in our tmpa-
tierce of military disasters, seem inclined to
allow for the i'll. success OF the colonial arms.
The question is. whether the mother country
is prepared to abandon the colonists OF New
Zealand entirely TO their own resources, and
whether, If she does so, she has elected, what is
u fair corollary to this position, to release the
colon sts rom their allegiance to England. The
colonists themselves are beginning to ask what
advantage they derive from the imperial con-
neciiOn. seeing that while, IN the event of a war
undertaken by England without their Consent)
against European power. they would be ex-
posed to the peris OF invasion and attack from
outside, they get no assistance from England III
projecting themselves against their own
enemies. They urge, not without reason,
that this Maori war is really a foreign
war-that the Maories are not enemies
of h cir own maKIng-that they existed when
the English came 10 the island, believing it to
be a British cofony-,hat the quarrel is rather
with the Queens Government :han with the
colonists: that there are no soecidc grievances
alleged by the Maori insurgents against the
colonial authorites-that the lnsurrection has
for it's sole object the throwing off the British
supremacy, thing which it concerns the
whole empire to defend, and not only1he single
colony OF New Zealand And before We adopt
the policy of non. interference in New Zealand
affairs, it is only just that we should consider,

of Valuable Paintings.

Shortly after o'clock last evening fire was
discovered in the centre of the secoud floor or
the tour story building No. $50 Broadway
occupied by II. W. Derby as a picture gallery
and bookstore, generally known as the Derby
Athen@um. The hre was soon eXtnguished,
but not until the pictures were very badly
damaged by heat and smoke. ROthermel's
magnificent picture, Reception at the White
House by President Lncon," valued at $50, ,000
was so badly blistered by The heat as to render
ii worthless. Several other pictures were also
badly damaged, and a few completely destroyed.
Dr. Derby estin ates his loss on stock, by hre
ana water, at $50, 900; Insured tor 800, 900, by
city com panics. Tue third and fourth floors are
occupied by the saxony Photograph Company.
Their damage vas slight. The building is
owned by the Fast River National Bank Com
pany, a. d is damaged TO the amount of $500.

the careful manner in which the FIRE Depart
ment was handled by Chief Eugneer Ktugs-
land, and the prompt action of the Fire Patrol
in covering up the the remainder of he pictures
and sock, the loss would have been very much
greater. Officer Remlsch of the Fire Marshal's
Bureau made an examination, bat could not

N.EW ZEALAND.
The Maori War Again-PersecutiOns of
the COlOnists.

from the London Standard, Jan. 4.
We can hardly reflect Without shudder upon
the perls tolwhlch hundreds OF our detenseless
countrymen-English men. women. and chill
dren-are now exposed in New Zealand -perlls
which the imagination OF those who are home
staytrs is scarcely able to grasp This Is the
worst calamity which We have to fear, III
anticipation of the next mail from New Zealand.
Disasters IN the field, or rather in the ioresr, are
but OF comparatively small account in distant
country, where loss of this kind of prestige does
not lead directly TO loss of power. The
Maorles are acute enough TO know both their
strength and their weakness. They have
never been able to cope with the regular
soldiers of England on anything like fair terms,
and they ale not likely TO challe nge any more
conclusions i'll the open field. Their rare in
stinctve capacity Tor war has taught them, long
before this that they have no hope OF pre- Vailing
against the slperlor disc pine and organization
OF European soldiers. They have become aware
that their only chance OF success is in de-
snltory system of bush fighting, and they seem
to have added, either IN their desplir, or IN
new access OF savage animosity, kind OF tao
tics Which, however it may affect the ultimate
issue of the event, they know will be most
mischeVous to their enemy.
A systematic massacre OF the white settlers Is
form ot warfare which we shall ind it diff cult
TO encounter or to provide against. o Ring TO
The nature Of the country and the scattered
character OF the English settlements, which are
| del enseless districts of the island the Maorles
who inha6it the wooded and mountainous
interior, will be able to make great havoc
| among the coonists. Our only places of strength
are on the sea coast-'oo far away to afford any
real protection TO the districts of which they ave
| the nominal capitals. In the art of occu-
| pyiDg and forrifyipg detached posts in tae
| interior we seem to be inferior to the Maorie.,
| nor have we force sufficient to keep no such
garrisons in our inland redoubts as might be
| effective for purposes Of defense. The war
| upon which the colony has entered is, in fact,
| pr pcisely one in which the Maories risk
| not6ipg' and have every advantage, and in
which the Erglish settlers risk all, and which
they have to wage under the most unaVorable
| circumstances.
| If left to be conducted by the colonists alone

news from New Zealand unhattering to oul

humanity. We need hardly say why 1t Is tina

The large core of the cable is to attain greater

Milne Bank, and around the southern edge of
the Grand Bank, there can be no possibility
OF injury to the cable from icebergs. Aud
II is well. known fact that the icebergs never
"bottom" in over ninety fathoms of water; so,
by acting on Sir James Anderson's advice, the
