The gentleman from whose letter we quote the foregoing with reference to the four million loan, speaks favorably of the probabilities of New Zealand attracting capitalists, and a better class of emigrants from England. He writes : “New Zealand grows in favor every “ day, and if there is no groat blunder “ made in the management of the colony ’s “ affairs for the next two years, you will “ succeed in getting a better class of “ people from this country than you have ‘ ‘ hitherto had. Many men of capital ‘ ‘ are looking to the colony as their future “ home. I have (just this morning “ answered a telegram from a gentleman ‘ ‘ in the North of England who is desirous “of going out with his family. He has “ capital, and wishes to settle. This “ climate does not suit him. The interest taken in New Zealand is very ‘ ‘ general and very great. I need scarcely “ say, however, there is much anxiety “ about New Zealand finance, and this “ will require close attention.” We have placed these extracts from a private letter before the public, because we feel that they are of colonial interest. We trust the Assembly, in the session which opens to-day, will put the finance of the colony on a sound footing. That accomplished, there will be really little or nothing to fear for the future of the country.
