Photographs.
The London correspondent of an exchange says ".—The Agent- General has sent out a number of large framed photographs of New Zealand scenery to the chief hotels in all the principal British cities, and also in the favourite pleasure resorts, such as Brighton, Hastings, Eastbourne, Torquay, Scarborough, &c. These are to be exhibited in the vestibules of the hotels for the enlightenment of the guests as to the superior grandeur of the scenic attractions that New Zealand can offer as compared with anything accessible in these islands. Already the views have attracted much attention and iuspired many enquiries. There is little doubt that the result will be an augmented influx of tourists into New Zealand, unless these should be excluded by some new " undesirable immigrants," &c. Many letters of enquiry about the position and prospects of the colony are being daily received in the Agent-General's department, and it seems as if a movement of population New Zea-land-wards were setting in. Indeed the Gothic's huge passenger list last week went far to prove this.
