RIPE and shipped to moat parts of New Zealand In a fresh state, instead of in tho stale condition in which wo now receive them-from Polynesia. A climate and a soil which will produce new potatoes and maize any month of the year, and where bananas take only twelve months to grow 20 feet high, and then bear full crops of fruit, cannot but bo a valnablo acquisition, and whon the difficulty of shipping has been overcome, tho island could produce enormous quantities of thcße and other fruits." Until hotter shipping arrangements can be made, the production should be confined to commodities of a less perishable nature, such as Chicory, Arrowroot, Olives, Indigo, Opium, Tea.
