TRADE OPENINGS IN ZEALAND.
The United States Consul in New Zealand recommends American manufacturers to study a JNew Zealand implement, "a giant lawn mower or scrub cutter,- for cutting down and making hay of manuka scrub, six to sixteen feet high." According to a correspondent at St. John, New Brunswick, the New Zealand Shipping Company is carrying a continually increasing quantity of> freight from the eastern littoral ' of Canada to New Zealand ; and this is urged as one reason for increasing the wharfage at St. John. The Government of Newfoundland has in view the construction of ,a railway across the island, which, with another railway cutting across the peninsula of Gaspe on the mainland, will bring Canada two days hearer to England than at present. This scheme ought eventually to benefit the New Zealand route.
