The story is a vision of New Zealand a hundred or more ye&rs hence. England and her Empire are supposed to have declined, and to have fallen as did Rome's, and her nobles and people have carried their wealth to the now dependent Colonies. An English emperor rules over a federated and prosperous Empire of Australia. New Zealand is an allied and iudependent Monarchy, ruled by a limited King, and possessing all the benefits, without any of the deficiencies, of the English Constitution as it now exists. England's maritime and naval supremacy and her commercial greatness have become the legacy of New Zealand, and the ships and men-of-war of the Queen of the Pacific rule the ocean. She is a powe of the first order—rich, flourishing, prosperous, and j free. AH those enormous reseurces which the islands are known in our day to possess, in the shape of coal iron, and other minerals, are supposed to have developed themselves with even greater results than England beheld in her miteral wealth. The country is thickly populated, covered with a network of railways, and studded with .large manufacturing towns. Her harbours are large and magnificent, and hold a great fleet of war vessels. Her ambassadors are at all foreign Courts. Science and art have reached their culmination, and have produced neiv and strange results. In a word, our Colony is the seat of a rich and powerful nation. The romance is supposed to be written by two travellers, who have passed over the length and breadth of the kingdom of New Zealand, and they enter fully into a discussion upon her social institutions and other points of interest. As a guarantee that this story will not be wanting in literary merit, we ha/c only to remind our readers that " Abdul" was the author of the " Political Portraits," and of the ii teresting lctwrs "Via San Francisco," which appeared not lony ago in our columns. Subscription, £1 2s Gd per annum; 12s per haifyear; Os Cd per quarter; payable in advance. OEDEIi, OF ANT BOOKSELLER.
