NEW ZEALAND FROZEN MEAT IN LONDON.
Dunedin, This day. The folloAving is an extract from a letter received by tlic""Ncw Zealand Refrigerating Company from Messrs Robert Campbell ancl Sons (limited), London: — "The prices realised here for the frozen meat ex Sorrento are unprecedented, and have created much astonishment, Much of the prejudice aarainst frozen meat is dying out, and many butchers who bought it before and passed it off as ordinary mutton iioav label it as 4 New Zealand meat,' while stores are springing up everywhere for tho sale of frozen meat alone. Much attention has been drawn of late to tho great decrease in our flocks by the Queen having issued an order in the Gazette forbidding the consumption of lamb by the royal household. This must all tend to our advantage, while great credit is due to your company for tho admirable manner in Avhich the sheep arc slaughtered and the carcases put on board, contrasting so favorably with the shipments from Australia."
