« THE NEW ZEALAND HERALD.” IN about three weeks from the present date, the FIRST NUMBER of a NEW JOURNAL, under the abovenamed title, will address itself to the patronage and support of the New Zealand public. The proprietors are of opinion that, in the present advanced and rapidly advancing state of the Metropolitan Province —with its great, growing, and diverging interests —with a largely increasing population —and possessing a maritime, commercial, and agricultural position of singular stability—(the many and trying ordeals through which so youthful a settlement has passed unscathed, considered) —that there is more than sufficient scope for the 'establishment of a third newspaper. In bringing the forthcoming “New Zealand Herald” under the notice of the public, the proprietors beg to make it distinctly known that it comes before them with no personal, political, or party purpose to serve, but as an untrammelled exponent and supporter of public opinion ; as the unflinching advocate of the true and legitimate interests of New Zealand as a whole, and of those of the Province of Auckland in particular. The proprietors of the “New Zealand Herald” have had a lengthened experience as Journalists in New Zealand, in Australia, and in Great Britain. They mention this not to indulge in self-eulogy, hut to satisfy the public that the new Journal will be in the hands of men in no way ignorant of the duties of Printer or Editor, hut thoroughly conversant with the requirements of both branches—familiar with the character, condition, and politics of the colony to which their fortunes have been long and inseparably wedded; — and yet withal so entirely free from political, personal, or party bias, that they can point to their abstinence, upon every occasion, of entering into any competition for place or office, whether in the General or Provincial Legislatures, or in any other branch of the public service. This, they believe, may be regarded as one material guarantee for political independence. Their individual interest in furtherance of the true progress and prosperity of New Zealand they also consider offers a no less equivocal assurance that their Journal will he conducted upon the straightforward and intelligible principle of mutual benefit to patrons and proprietors. The “ New Zealand Herald” will claim for itself “ the glorious privilege of independence.” Measures, (in politics) not men, shall be its guiding maxim. Be they in power who may, if the welfare and prosperity of New Zealand be their aim, the aim of the “ New Zealand Herald,” will be to tender them a fair and manly measure of support. On the Native Question there can bo no doubt. Forced into war, it must be carried out with unrclaxing vigour. The present Government have exerted their best ability to do so. To insure onr support they must not relax until they have surmounted this Native difficulty, and that upon such terms as shall compel the Maori aggressors to make this the last internecine strife that shall ever desolate the fair and fertile soil of New Zealand. The columns of the “New Zealand Herald” will be open to free and independent discussion of all questions of public interest. Careful surveillance will, however, be exercised in order that the pages of the “ Herald may not unwittingly be made the vehicle of partisan strife, nor yet , the medium, under the plea of public good, of affording indulgence to party spleen or personal acrimony. < Arrangements have been made for ample supplies and j exchanges of British and Colonial Journals ; and for the filing of the “ Herald” in the leading offices of the ( British Metropolis and other important cities of the \ empire; where agencies will be established in order that ; an extensive circulation may be obtained in all tl c com- i inercial ports and towns of the United Kingdom. I To the Agricultural, Pastoral, Commercial, and Maritime interests of New Zealand, the utmost attention shall ; bo devoted; and that this may be effectually done it is c heartily hoped that friends and subscribers will kindly ] assist in promoting this great colonial cause. In the Naval and Military department of the “New Zealand Herald” a confident hope is entertained that it will be found second to no journal in the South Pacific. Assurances of co-operation and support from numerous and influential sources are manifold and cheering. And upon the Editor the United Service may count, as upon an old and faithful friend, whoso pen in the Service Journals of the British Metropolis has heretofore been earnestly, and not unsuccessfully employed in advocacy of their interests, and redress of their grievances. The first number of the paper, a full sized double deny, the proprietors trust to be enabled to lay before the public within three weeks at furthest. In shape and substance, they will do their utmost, to make a “ first appearance” in such a manner as “ Old Stagers” on a new arena should, — sparing neither care nor cost to do so. For some little time, the place of business must necessarily he in hired premises ; but in the course of four months from the time of commencing business they will be enabled to remove to their own premises, which are now in course of erection, in / Wyndham-atrcct, upon a scale as yet uaejuniiva 'V tII V printing establishment in New Zealand. _ c Business will be commenced with new machinery, types, presses, and materials of the very best description ; and with arrangements entered into in Great Britain, for a con- _ tinuous supply of every requisite needful for carrying on the work, not of a newspaper only, but of every branch of a Commercial and General Printing Establishment of the first class. Persons desirous of becoming subscribers to the New Zealand Herald,” may do so by leaving their address 1 with Messrs. Chapman, Wayte, Varty, and Leighton, • Booksellers; or by communicating with the proprietors ■ through the post. Further particulars will he published in future advertisements. W. C.
