Twenty-two new warships are in course of construction in Russia. About £200,000 worth of articles are pawned iu London every week. There are more ducks in the Chinese Empire than in all tho world outside of it.

The street accidents in London last year numbered 5,728, of which 144 were fatal.

At this season of the year it is a case of each fancy goods establishment putting its best foot foremost, and we would warn our readers that the .foot of Mathews' fancy bazaar is such a long way forward that unwary visitors in Auckland, if not very careful, are apt to stumble over it and find themselves landed right into the beautifully fitted-np fancy ponds establishment at 120, Oncethore, good-bye to the casli in your pockets. The most finished miser in the world would have to surrender, surrounded as he would be by the grand display of useful and ornamental goods, such as beautifully bound albums, capitally finished ladies' hand bags; daintilly lined work-baskets, glittering gold and silver brooches, pins, rings and bangles set with sparkling stones eta etc. Proceeding further into this palace of enchantment you are astounded with the marvellous assortment of beautiful dolls with flaxen hair,—wonderful and ingeneously constructed mechanical toys, rocking horses with flowing manes, etc, etc, etc. The low prices speak for the big heart of of the proprietor, for though ho tempts he also means tnat none shall go empty away.
