A Mr M Veigh has just arrived in Sydney from the goldfields in the fur North' with 3,551 ozs of gold. Not a bnd haul. We take the following from the New Zealand Herald-.— " More men rust out than wear out, saj's an old proverb. Perhaps the latest illustration of (he forco of habit is exemplified in the ra?e of a resident in one of our country district? at tho present moment Some time ago he dispnsc-,1 r f his extensive farm, and retired from active life ou a comfortable competency. The monotony of idleness was too dreadful a punishment for the man of industrous business habits, and he is now teaching a school gratuitously of the children in bia neighborhood, in order to keep himself employed. Like Uossuet. he must work, and when conjured to take rest, bis answer is pretty much like that of the celebrated Frenchman, " Rest ! I shall have all eternity to rest in." Attention is being directed, not before it is time (says the Ashburton Mail) to some of the pet monopolies of New Zealand. The Government has one Rank, gorged with public capital, often almost to the bursting point, *hich nevertheless lirings its pressure to bear occasionally in au awkward way on its customers; 0: c steam shipping company, which carries its mails, members of Parliament and civil servants on their tours of pleasure and business rou:ul the islands, and imposes a most unconscionable tariff on its paymasters— the highly taxed colonists; nml one Agent-General, who lives luxuriously on the fat of colonial loans, and dabbles in large land swindles. These monopolies are waxing old, and for the sake of the colony it is to be hoped their career is drawing to a close.
