NO. I, a Specimen Number of the NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE, a Newspaper for the First and Principal Settlement of the New Zealand Land Company, which it is supposed will be at Port Nicholson, in Cook's Stralt*,is now presented to the public. It will be found to contain various information interesting to the Colony now on the eve of departing, to their friends, and to those who may wish to be acquainted with the principles, objects, and local circumstances of the Colony, and the actual proceedings of the Colonists to the present time. The Second Number will be published in New Zealand as soon after the arrival df the Colony as it may be found possible to print it, which, it is hoped, will be within a 1 fortnight of the disembarkation of the Colonists ; and as ships pass through Cook's Straits almost daily, on their return from Australia to Europe, it is expected that immediate and frequent opportunity will be afforded for transmitting the second and sub■equent'numbers to England. Price of this specimen number, 9d. ; annual subscription, £1 10s., in advance. Orders received by Mr D. Ramsay, at the New Zealand Agency Office and Subscription Reading Rooms, 5 Adam street, Adelphi.
