The South Australian Eegister states that " Ernest Eugster, the commissioner of the Swiss Court at the Adelaide Exhibition, writing to a friend in Adelaide, ■peaks strongly of his vivid recollection of the hospitality and kindness he experienced at the hands of the people of Adelaide, and goes on to say ' that New Zealand with her Swiss-like scenery, silver streams, mountain lakes, snowcapped peaks, green pastures, fertile soil, and her kindred people,' has charmed him the most. He mentioned that he has purchased on behalf of a syndicate of Swiss gentlemenya large block of nearly 4000 acres of TMpi land in Fukekohe, 30 miles south of JMickland on the railway to Hamilton. It is intended to survey and ' subdivide the block, and then have it settled by industrious farmers, chiefly Swiss. He believes there is better scope for the hard-working thrifty tillers oT the soil than in the Old Country. The new settlement is to be called Helvetia." " iEGLES " in the Australasian has the following:—" By the mail are full particulars of the battle of Telel-Eebir, and a curious discrepancy which was observable in the telegrams is not cleared up. The newspaper correspondents j specially distinguished the brilliant deeds of the Highlanders only. In Lord Wolseley's - official account the Highlanders are not specially singled out. He says—'All went straight at them (the enemy), the Eoyal Irish particularly distinguishing itself by its dash as it closed.' Now, who is right—the correspondents, who say nothing of the Irish, or the Commander-in-chief, who omits the Highlanders ? It is rather confusing. Doubtless the Irish are not the fashion at present—but let there be fair play."
