AN UNQUALIFIED SUCCESS.
The "Pall Mall Gazette" asserts in its issue of January 6th that the scheme of assisted emigration organised by -he New Zealand Government has proved an unqualified success. No fewer than 5,000 parsons had been taken to the Dominion within
the previous six months, and applications were still being made in great numbers. Every ship going to the Dominion was full of emigrants, and extra accommodation had been provided for a long time past. "There is room for plenty more emigrants," said an official at the Government offices to a representative of the "Pall Mall Gazetta," on the morning of the issue in question. "All kinds of general and farm labourers and domestic servants are required. Places will be found for them, as for the others, who are now writing Home grateful letters about assistance received. The year's figures will be a record."
