THE “TIMES” REDIVIVUS!

The first of the new series of this panel vas put into our hands yesterday. |i would be “damning; with faint praise/’ to say merely this publication is creditable : we must go further,—and compliment, to the best of our ability, the enterprising Editor, whose independent spirit, always provided it he properly curbed, is pretty sui t of doing good, as every publication written in a spirit of fairness, and at tin came lime well written, must do in a com uunity like ours. We wish the “ Times” iveyy success. Having “floundered” through a greeting to our Contemporary, we may proceed to notice a remark of his m the subject of the arrival at Auckland of the Company’s Agent, to select land or their occupation. Our Cotemporary tppears to think that the consummation ol ibis much to he desired object must await lie arrival ol the new Governor* Now ve cannot for our lives see why the ion arrival of Captain Fitzroy should in "iv way retard the arrangement of this natter. An Agent of a Company like Jiat relenedto, comes not without notice of his mission being sent born Downing street, and consequent instructions to the local authorities tor their guidance ; and it E by no means likely that Mr. Dell will approve of waiting lor Captain I'itz toy, wlio may not arrive until the latter end of December, when, il report speaks true, it may be calculated that Company’s ships ure now ou their way to this port. By the way we have heard, and from tolerable authority, that Auckland it indebted in some measure, to the repre* sentations of our late Governor, for this location of the Company on the shotes ol the Waitemata.
