FIVE JIASTS AND OIL POWEE. The (ive-mat-ted barque La France, specially bunt for the New Caledonia ore trade, is a remarkable vessel. She is 426 ft. in ength. v.-iUi a beam of 55ft., and is of 10,080 tons displacement. Her gro-s tonnasc is 65C0 tons, and lior sail area is 65C0 sritiarc metres. She will be fitted with two heavy oil engines of about 16C0 h.p. driving twin-screws for use in calms, or when winds proie contrary. The new auxiliary vessel will be engaged in the New Caledonian oro trade, and it is reported that La trance has been chartered for a period of veajs for this particular trade.. The vessel will be heavily rifjced and mechanical power will be employed for hoist iiiß the massive yards. It is estimated that when under a pood' pross of canvas, and with her twin engines Koing, the big live-master will be able to lvel oft some 17 knots an hour. In calm weather when progress through the water is obtained purely ov her oil engines, it is expected that she will be able to do not far sliort of 11 knots an hour. WOODEN STEAMEB. For a Greymouth company there is being built at Mr. Koch Davis's yards at Blackwall, ncr.r Sydney, a wooden steamer of <C 0 tons for the West Coast trade, a.ud it is expected that orders for two more trom the same company will follow. The one now on tile stocks wiil bo launched parly in February. The machinery has been imported from Scotland. The new Hue will not enter into competition in the nasEcngor trade, but will onrrv cargo onlv, being specially designed for timber t-liip-rnents. , ; DOWS' BACK 01' TIIE ISLAND.

Do Chappie: "Jf there's any one nui.-.-auco I hate move than another it's a fellow who is always going round introducing people. There's Gooiihcart, for instance.'" Houttown: "What's he been rloine?" Do Chappie: 'The idiot! The other day lie introduced me lo a man 1 iuve<l money 10, and I'd been owing it .so lony he'd forgotten all about inc. .Now I'll have, to pay tip or lie sued." The appointment by the Federal Council oi' the Churches of Christ in Antcricn of a conimis>ion oil peace and arbitration will probably be tho third link in an international chain of church brotherhood in tlio interest of international pcace and arbitration. There is already a joint, committee representing (he churches of England and tlio churches of Germanv. During the past summer, the Social Service Secretary of the Federal Council, Dr. C. ,S. .M.'ncl'arland, conferred with members of the English . committee in Berlin, receiving general expressions of a desire that the. alliance should also embrace Ihe Cnifetl States. This will probably bo brought about through the Federal Council Commission, and will mean, perhaps, the beginning of a worldwide alliance among llio Christian churches.
