BOOKS ON NEW ZEALAND FROM MR. MACKELVIE.
o We have already noticed that Mr. Mackelvie had sent, by the ship Opawa, another consignment of books to augment the collection he formerly sent on NewZealand. The volumes have now been unpacked, and they are certainly a most valuable addition to what may be called our national library. Amongst the collection arc bix volumes of the Challenger's Expedition, in continuation of those which we have already received from the same gentleman. We may mention that each of these volumes is published at £2 10s. A number of the volumes consistof pamphlets, some old and some new, on the subj=ct of New Zealand, but all are valuable for preservation. There ar in all 14 vol nes on colonial history.
