PARLIAMENT hag decreed that New Zealand Bhall excel any Australian colony in the numerical strength of her military contingent, and it is a foregone conclusion that Her Majesty will be advised by the Secretary of State, the Hon. Joseph Chamberlain, to reciprocate the unexpected extent of our loyalty by some recognition worthy of a devoted people, who have sent such a military force to demonstrate our warlike instincts and ability to aid old England in the event of war. That recognition will be, without doubt, a title to the originator and tactician who has carried his proposals in the face of a hostile gee: ion of Parliament, No doubt Her Majesty will deem a mere knighthood too meagre «an honour for a statesman who haa shown such Imperialistic exuberance, Quaen Victoria will undoubtedly show some discrimination in awarding honours to Colonial Premiers, aud we may look forward with confidence to the Liberal Lender of New Zealand returning with something more than a " Sir " to his name. The form of title itself may not be so very easy to place. There is one which from the analogy of strength and popularity will be generally accepted at Home and abroad as apropos. The Premier will go home as plain Mr. Seddon. What if he should return as LORD SURATURA? He is Strong. So is Suratura Tea He haa promised Economy. So does Suratura Tea He is not a blend of India or China. No more is Suratura Tea His name is known throughout N.Z, So ia that of suratura Tea ! He has a reputation. to has Suratura Pea He goes fatther than other Premiers. * So does Suratura than ordinary Teaß JOHN ORR & CO., Agent.
