maori IMMIGRATIoN.-A correspondent of a colo
NAL paper writes thus, on this subject
"The anthropological experiment of the Hawaiian
Government will be watched no doubt by Mr.. OAR
win and other scientific investigators into the origin
of species with as much interest as it will be by US
living nearer to the seat" Of the experiment.
Many of my readers have probably not heard what
the Hawaiians are going to do. Nothing less than
the importing of a number Of stalwart healthy
Maoris into the Sandwich Islands to raise up q po-
pulation superior to that which is said to be fast
dying out. Big Maories ought to be as precious
and as valuable in the sight of this regenerating
Government. I should say, as tall Irishman were in
the estimation of Frederick William. Who knows
but that the amalgamation of these divergent races
may be productive of some striking variations in
the genus homo. and possibly some further light
may be thrown on the question Of the origin of
species. I was at first inclined to regard this an
nouncement of an interesting experiment as O
canard but the new Zealand papers state unreser-
vedly that an agent has actually been sent by the
Hawaiian Government to Auckland to procure the
new blood, and we must therefore accept it as an
indubitable fact"
