MRS BRITTEN ON NEW ZEALAND.
Mrs E. Hardinge-Britten has been writing to several American papers her impressions of Australia and New Zealand! In a letter to the Banner of Light, cne of the leading spiritualist papers in the United Slates, she thus discourses on our colony :—" Of the lands I visited, I may say in brief, Australia, with all its yet unwrought treasures and vast extent, is far less attractive in point of soil, scenery, and climate, tiian New Zealand, which is an earthly paradise ; in fact, if ever there was a Garden of Eden its site must have been at Nelson, and if it was not so, it ought to have been, for there is just the spot where Adam and Eve could have found their Eden, and that without even the ghost of a serpent to tempt or betray them. Of this lovely land, and its unique and singular nativesand natural history^ I promise to speak more at large in one or two special lectures."
