NEW ZEALAND TIMBER IN LONDON.
A resident of Wellington lias received a letter from a gentleman in the timber trade in London, in which he thus speaks of New Zealand woods in the Home market]: —“ The New Nealand wood is now in the market and has been for some time, but sales are slow, business in all timber being slack just now. It will have therefore to take its time. It is well recommended here for cabinet work and polishing, and a gentlemen now in England is introducing more in the market, and soliciting orders and establishing agencies. My opinion is that in about three years cargo after cargo will be making its way over. The wood is so hard that it will do for yacht and shipbuilding and cog purposes.”
