The Manawatu Standard. (PUBLISHED DAILY.) Suivant la verite FRIDAY, JANUARY 12, 1883. NEW ZEALAND AND EMIGRATION.

In a late issue of the London Globe, a correspondent singing himself " Pakeha" wrote, warning intending emigrants against going to New Zealand. Mr W. G. Inckorv, who has just returned from that colony, replies to the same as follows : — " I think intending immigranlßueed not bo alarmed by ttio warning. That much dlssapointment is often felt on arrival by people going to new countries with too great expecta~ tions, lam prepared to admit. But if a working man can better his condition (and m many cases I think he can) at the present time by emigrating, it will be done by going either to New South Wales or New Zsaland. -They both enfoy superior climates, fertile Boil, and great mineral wealth. Emigrants can now rent from the New Zealand Government' land at a very low rent for thirty years, with repayments for all improvements ma^e during that time, if at the expiration they are removed; or,in acase of continuance of occupancy, by payment of so much more rent as represents the rise, not on their im/provements, but on tbe original unim*

proved ground. Thus, they have all their capital reserved for actually work, ing their farm, with title equal to Crown grant, subject; only to readjustment of grouad-rent every thirty years, calculated on actual rise m the land itself. And, whatever this rise may be, they will have the satisfaction of knowing that instead of its going to a landlord, it is devoted to relieving them from taxation. I know of no other country offering these, ind u cements."
