NRW-/EdLAND.

Afar in the South Pacific-s0uth-east OF
Australia-lie two large, smaller and several
insignificant islands, discovered by Iasman IN
1912. and named New-Zealand, after province
of Holland. The famous English discOverer,
Capt Cook visited them over century later,
and made the first survey OF their coasts in
ITO. New-Zealand now constitutes British
colony, and may be regarded as the aDtlp0des
of Great Britain Ireland, and their surround
ing islets, about equal to them in area, (95OOO
square miles) and with very similar climate.
But New-Zealand is of volcanic origin,
and is studded with mountains, the highest,
$4,000 feet high, sn0w-crOwned, like several
Others, while one active volcano Is 5000 feet
high. Perhaps there is no other portion OF
the earth's surface at present thnly inhabited
which is more inviting to immigrants than
New-Zealand. Its climate is mild and equa-
BILE its soil fertile and easily worked; its ex-
tensive cOast-lne thckly studded with admi-
rable harbOrs; it is in good part COW
cred with excellent timber; it has vast
plains and slopes made verdant with succu-
lent grasses, whereon Cattle and Sheep
thrive without cured food or any shelter but
such as the never leahess woods afford; it has
plenty OF eXCelltnU coal, anu us nOuHIdluS
yield gold in considerable quantities. Wheat,
Barley, Oats, and Potatoes, grow luxuriantly;
but the chief wealth of her farmers is found
in their hOcks and herds: Wool, Timber, Gold
dust, and Ores, being their principal exports.
The settlers are mainly British, and generally
persons of superior intelligence and enterprise.
They are rapidly increasing in numbers, pro-
ductlon, and wealth. Their annual wool-clip is
estimated at ten millions of pounds.
New-Zealand has recently been brought into
direct connection with this country by line
of mail steamships running once in four
weeks from San Francisco to Dunedin, on the
northeast coast of the middle island, and TO
other ports of the colony. The necessary
length of the passage is twenty-five days; so
that mails from London, crossing this CONT
nent by the Union and Central Pacific Rail
roads, may be delivered in NewZealand in
six weeks AS yet, however, we understand
that some detention at Honolulu is encoun-
tered, so that the actual time averages nearly
two months.
Labor being scarce and dear in NewZea-
land, as in all prosperous colonies, the Pro-
vincal Council has appointed Mr.. l.. Coates,
of the house of Taylor Co., as a special COM
missioner to this country, to examine and re-
port upon our labor-saving machinery, espec-
ally that which is employed in Agriculture.
Mr.. Coates will visit some of our implement
manufactures, cheese-factOries, State Fairs,
&C., and we commend him to the regard of
those he may meet.

II is noticeable that women who have actually
dono good service in the literary and artistic

mothers they will need every day. God
forbid that we should decry any effort

to supply her with trades and profess

and the scientific adaptation OF Its different
kinds TO the varying physical requirements OF

which she cannot be taught at home. by all
means let every woman who desires to earn
her own livelihood have every aid. But we
confess our belief that for generations 10 come
the majority of women will find their lifes work
at home, and that those who go outside 10

Tile LE1GEE OF PEACE.

A dispatch which we publish this morning
states, upon the authority of the Free Press
newspaper of Vienna, that an understanding
in the interest of peace has been arrived at
between Germany, Italy, and Austria, and
that it is possible that Russia may join it, If
this report be true, and there are many con-
firmatory circumstances in its favor, there
has been no more important event in
recent diplomacy. The advantages of
the movement for all the parties en-
Gagged, with the exception of the one
whose adhesion is made matter of con-
lecture, are sufficiently evident. Each one of
the three powers is satisfied with its present
position and devotes its best energies to re-
tanning it, Prussia asks, and certainly should
ask nothing for many years to come, but
the opportunity to confirm and consolidate
her conauests, and establish upon firm fOunda-
tons the bases of German unity and the
newly consolidated nationality. Italy has also
Just attained the object OF all her dreams
and struggles in gaining Rome as her capt.
tai, and in embracing under the Crown
of Savoy the entire Peninsula. Austria
has of course no hopes of ever reganing her
lost ascendency beyond the Apennines. She is
on the defensive with regard to Italy, in view
of the covetous glances which the new king
dom is casting upon Trieste and Dalmatia.
She sees her Southern and Eastern border
threatened by the insdious approaches of the
Pan-Slavistlc agitation. She feels her position
even in Galicia threatened by the neigh
borhood of trampled Poland and in Bohemia
the Czechish leaders do not always restrain
| their harangues within the limits of legality
| or loyalty. An alliance so strong as to guar
antee to each of these Powers their present
possessions would very greatly simplify the
embarrassments of their diplomacy and
diminish the expense of their armies.
| Powerful as Prussia is. and solid as il the
union of the German States under her leader
ship, it would be no disadvantage for her to
be guaranteed for a while entire immunity
from war and tumult for the purpose of COM
pleting her internal reorganization. The glow
| of patriotic devotion which, during the war
and just after it, fused all men and all govern
ments of German blood into one army has in
| great measure given way to calmer and
more critical view of things. Before many
years elapse the able and sagacious Chan
cellor of the Empire will have enough to
do to oversee the play of politics and comb-
nation among the different members of
the great empire he governs. Although an
easy match for any power in the world, it is
| very natural that Germany should desire to

COOKS AND COOKERY.

Whatever will be the other resu' pf the
Franco Prussian war, it has wakene En-
glish public up thoroughly on the subject of
cookery. John Bull has sneered since the days
of Arthur at French frogs and kickshaws, and
built impregnably on the common sense of his
roast beef and plum pudding. But the war
drove multitude of French women as emf
gr6es to England, who were not slow
in expressing their disgust and astonish-
ment at "the indigestible, ill-cOoked
meals, and ill-governed, wasteful men
cages of the English middle class" ex-
pressing them too in language which, to the
amazement of their hosts showed they could
use the pen with as much knowledge and skill
as they could control their kitchens. One or
two English ladies attempted feeble rejoinder,
explaining that, by the law of social custom,
"any woman above the rank of mechanics
"wife who invaded her own kitchen would
cease to be regarded as a lady, and forfeit
" the respect of her servants"
Matters go a step further with us. Every
mechanics wife keeps her servant, and in
nine cases out of ten neither mistress nor
maid is able to prepare decently cooked
meal There is no country under heaven of
meats, vegetables, and fruits, as our own; not
only the necessaries, but the luxurles OF the
table, are abundant and cheap. There is no
country either in which women OF the middle
class are naturally so shrewd and practical, or
are better qualified by shallow but wide
education to bring practical ability TO bear
on everyday affairs. Yet in the face of
all this the households of every other civil
lied nation are managed with more skill, order,
and smoothness. Cookery is a matter which the
Advanced Female teaches her sex to look upon
az of the EARTH earthly; one of the tieSh-pOts
of Egypt TO which she, in her high pill
grimage, cannot, without degradation, look
back; and in the mean time the hodge
podge of messes which the American peo-
pie eat is the origin of half their diseased
bodies, morbid brains, and religious megrins.
In the New England States a rigid econ
omy is the curse of the kitchen, and outside
of it, lack of knowledge of which even our
unbalanced women boast instead of beiny
ashamed. OF course we do not cOntrover' he
Advanced Females dogma or the law Of JUS
tom which fOrbids any woman the title of lady
who understands and oversees the boiling,
baking, and cleaning of her own establishment
The fairer sex are the engineers who lay down
these social har-lines. We simply state the
fact that, in the present condition of servants,
any woman whose husbands income is below
$4,000 per annum must possess this praot al
knowledge, or resign herself and her fam
lily to domestic misery or boarding
house. No doubt, many women, whose am
bition is as portly as their pockets are lean,
imagine that they are gifted by nature with
powers for better things than scientific cookery
or tho wise ordering Of children and maids.

The Virginia Democrats, or Conservatives,
who commenced session of their Convention
at Richmond yesterday, met with serious
difficulty at the beginning. Some of the party,
belonging to the Old Silurian period of poll
tics, were specially anxious to be formed into
phalanx of white men to oppose all heresies
in color. But, to their great astOnishment the
Convention actually admitted several black
delegates to seats. That this should be done
in a Democratic Convention is marvellous, but
that it should happen in Old Virginia is a
thing incredible. Now, then, what becomes of
all the fne-spun Conservative theories about
the idiotic crookedness of the Africans tiba,
the ignobleness of his Uranium, and other
damning evidences of his social and political
debasement

official correspondence, shall be delivered in

arising from the damage done by Anglo

these are allowed more time for presentation,

There is some prospect that the perils
which gathered about the consideration of the
question of prolonging NJ. Thiers's term of
Office may be averted. 1t is asserted that
the Rivet proposition has been modified by
the Governpent and made acceptable TO- the
members of the Left, who will support it.
When that motion came from the Committee,
the other day, Dufaure, in behalf of the Right,
desired to have some eulOgistic reference to
Theirs inserted, but the proposition met with
disfavor. Now the Dufaure motion has been
accepted by the Committee and by the Gov
eminent, though not yet incorporated into the
decree. This action, however, binds together
the Right and the Left and Right Center, and
made the passage of the decree almost certain.
The withdrawal by Gambetta of his motion
for dissolution of the Assembly certainly in
dicates that some understanding has been ar
rived at between the Left and the Govern
ment by which the powers of n. Theirs are
to be continued for definite period. What
ever may be said of the light of the Assembly
to make him President it must be confessed
that a change in the Chief Executive now
would be disastrous to France. But the riot
GUS proceedings in the Chamber must not be
taken as anything more than harmless ebulli-
tons of the excitable French.

Although the ends of justice may be no
more speedily subserved by the Identification
of the remains of the hapless young victim of
the Rosenzweig abortionist, there will
be a certain feeling of relief in the
public mind to know that such Identification
has been made. The web Of evidence
appears complete in every part, and after the
identity of the murdered girl has been estab-
lished by several witnesses a handkerchief
bearing her name has been found in the
ROsenzweig house. The whole dreadful story
of hunting down the murderer and the name
of the victim reads like chapter of fiction.

Lovers of quiet and harmony will be glad
to know that the Italian residents of the city
are taking steps to abate the nuisance of Or
gan grinding and harp drumming. Unhappily
for the Italian people here, most of these per-
ipatetic tOrturers are of that nationality, and
so the lazy medicancy of strapping young fell
