New Steam Sebvice.—We learn from the Southern Cross, of the 30th ultimo, that the P.N.Z. and A. Company have determined to start a new steam service— namely, between Auckland and the Manukau via Cook's Straits; and it appears to us that it will be one that will be likely to conduce much to the convenience of the public, "and at the same time be remunerative. The Egmont is to be the boat employed on the route, and she will leave Auckland on her first trip about the 17th proximo, calling at the following ports—Napier, Wellington, Picton, Pelorus, Nelson, and New Plymouth, and arriving at the Manukau about the end of the month. She will leave the Manukau on the 2nd March, calling at the same ports on her return, and arriving at Auckland on the 14th. The service will not be confined to the ports _ mentioned, but stoppages will be made, as the necessity for them occurs, at such places as Raglan, Wanganui, or Tauranga. There is no desire whatever to come into competition with the New Zealand Steam Navigation Company's boats, and for thut purpose the dates of departure have been fixed as widely apart from those in the time table of that company as was possible.
