THE "TENNYSON" COLONY.
We recently stated that a new settlement is about to be formed in the Cape Colony, called "Tennyson," and that the settlers would be selected from the south of England. The families intending to emigrate are about twenty-five in number, who have all hitherto resided in Hampshire, and they will occupy land in the Queenstown district of the colony. Every care seems to have been taken to ensure the selection of suitable persons and to make it probable that they will begin their new life under very favorable conditions. The party \yill be accompanied by a nursing sister—a lady of position and experience—who cannot fail to be a help tojthe women and children. The promoters of this promising experiment deserve a full measure of success.
