Deeds of heroism, no matter by whom performed, always find ft responsive thrill in British hearts, and the long scroll of fame is blazoned with many a glorious deed done in this land of New Zealand. In our last Christmas Number we depicted nil act of heroic self-devotion on the part of ah enemy; this year we illustrate a deed done under the shadow of immediately impending death at the hands of it blood-thirsty savage, by one of our own race—ft mere lad—who, in his last moments, thought only for the safety of his comrades, and, when already stricken with one painful wound, sounded the alarm which saved many lives. Also is given an amusing Coloured Cartoon, entitled, EPISODES IN NEW ZEALAND HISTORY (Humorously Depicted). The various comic histories which have been written show how easily history lends itself to the humorous, and .even amid the stern realities of New Zealand's story there has been much to excite the risible faculties, To some of these episodes our artist has turned a lively imagination not unsuccessfully. "Laugh and grow fat" has passed into a proverb, 'and if aay of our'readers, like Cassius, "hath a loan and hungry look," let him p.tudy this page and riyitl FalSjtyfF in graceful rotundity. > • -m ' | -j — -'Two Pages of PARLIAMENTARY CHARACTER SKETCHES, .

Oh, wad some power the giftio gio us To seo oursels as itlmrs see us, sang Burns, and this privilege Mr. Hunt has extended to sundry of tho "grave and reverend signors" who rule over our destinies at the Wellington " talking-shop." HeroVe have them, undisguised by the self-conscious smirk of the products of tho camera, moved by high thoughts for their country's weal, uttering burning words of patriotic fervour; or, if in a milder mood, delicate fancies clothed 111 classical allusions; in their proper characters as tlioy live and move they stand before us in these pages. In addition to the Colburcd Supplement the Christmas Number also contains EIGHT PAGES OF PHOTO-ENGRAVINGS, COMPRISING— "A Merry Christmas" 3 "Yachting in Auckland" "Views of Auckland Harbour" "Harbours of New Zealand" "Hula; Manukau Harbour" "Scenes on the Waiicato River."
