Wellington, this day,
Steps are being taken by the Government to advertise the attractions to tourists afforded by the colony. Four maps have been prepared by the Survey Department showing respectively the Thermal Springs, district of the North Island, Mount Cook glacier region, Lake WaUabipu and Clubha river system, and the West Coast Sounds, with Lakes Te Anau and Manapouri, and the l'outes to be followed in travelling to each place. On the back of every map is a detailed description of the most notable scenery within the district in question, interspersed with libhographicrepresonbabions of many of the views. The two first named have already been issued, and the last two will be printed shortly. Several thousand copies of each map will be published gratis, and will be circulated through the medium of the Agent-General's Department, the Melbourne Exhibition, and the shipping offices in various parts of the world.
