THE GUARD OF HONOUR.
Commenting on the landing and reception of Lord Onslow at Auckland, tho New Zealand Timas says:—"LieutenantColonel Shepherd, instead of being blamed or 'slated' for his action, deserves commendation for Rcting in accordance with military regulations, and being superior to the toadyism which seems to prevade certain Auckland circles. It is not thought here that His Excellency affects either display or ceremonial of any kind, and that the moat valued compliment that can be paid him is to give him complete freedom of movement for observation."
