 CoRN.--It would be grand thing for this section if farmers and others who hold corn could sell it. We see no reason why Gov crnment contractors cannot purchase and de. liver some of it. It cannot be possible that the Chief QuartermAster would object, know ing, as he does, that the corn raised in this vicinity is really good.
 One thing is pretty certain. and that is that if the market for this crop does not speedily increase, our farmers will have to raise something else in its place, else procure more swine and put it into them.

on Sunday morning we have Auckland papers to
February IA, she having left that port on that
day. At Kandavu Fin she was detained two
days awaiting the arrival of the branch boat, the
Tartar. which had been delayed by the nOn-arrl-
val of the Melbourne boat at Sydney. From
FIJI to this port, the Mikado made the run in
fourteen days. The night after leaving Kandavu
the Mikado passed the mail steamer Macgregor
bound down.
A most destructive hurricane or cyclone swept

formed in certain number of bours-60O hours,
or IS days, from Sydney to San Francisco. 1t is
no child's play but a contest with powerful
monopoly, in which colonial prestige and millions
of dollars are at stake. The steamers, therefore,
cannot spend ten or twelve hours outside our
harbor watching the stars, nor twenty-four hours
in port, to be admired by strangers, or to suit
anybody's convenience here.
Now, if we expect this line to accommodate
rs in the way Of mails and passengers, to say
nothing of freight, which it may or may not care
to take we will have to furnish every facility to
prevent unnecessary delays. In the opinion of
some we are not able to subsidize the line /;
though for ourselves we believe it would be more
polite to close contract with the company, and
pay small subsidy, TO insure the stoppdge Of The
steamers here regularly, than to have them pass
by when it may suit them best. But if we will
not subsidize them, there are certain things we
car do to attract them to this port.
lst-A telegraph should be maintained at the
outer head, Point Coco. The steamer Macgregor
sighted Coco Head at 4:3O P. NJ, February IL,
and had she been signalled might have had the
pilot on board and reached the wharf at seven
instead Of ten or eleven o'clock as was the case.

buoy, spar buoy, and channel buoys, to enable
these steamers to enter at any hour of the darkest
nights.
The cost Of this service will be triiing; but
these and any other arrangements that may be
considered necessary, ought to be adopted Uih-
oat delay. five are negligent in doing what is
expected of US, we must not complain if the pro-
prietors of the line IN London decide to leave us
out in the cold. and order that their steamers
pass by this group without stopping. There is
danger of this, and it rests With the government
and the merchants to take such action as may
prevent it, and the sooner it is done the better

The New steam Line.

By singular fOrtuity, the first four steamers
of the new mail service have all arrived at this
port during the night, two of them entering the
harbor soon after the pilot boarded them, and the
Others remaining outside till morning. We have
the authority Of one of the principals concerned

unless every facility is afforded at this port to en-
able the steamers to enter at any hour they may
arrive. they will be ordered not to stop here, bat
to proceed on direct to San francisco. The

Sydney to San Francisco, while the Mikado

A COMMUNICATION from a correspondent on an
other island refers to the proposed reduction of
salaries and sale of government lands. There is
90 doubt but some changes may be effected which
will tend to diminish the expenditures, and by
sales Of public lands, the revenues may be kept
at about their former figures, thus enabling the
government to carry on public improvements,
without the necessity Of increased debt. 1t is
well known that the late KING LUHALILo had
made up his mind to propose a general reduction
Of all salaries including bis own, making them
twenty per cent. less than at present. The only
exception was the salaries of ministers which are
not larger than the necessities of their position
require. The whole subject of retrenchment
must come up before the next Legislature but
so far as we can learn there has been as yet no
well-de6ned course of action proposed, discussed
or settled on. 1t is a difficult subject to deal
with and great diversity of opinion will be found
to prevail on it, outside of as well as IN the ma
tiOnal assembly. And for this reason, the more
the subject is discussed, the better will it be un-
derstood
