Dr. P. R. Cross, late of Fapakura, has just returned from a visit to Great Britain. He was much struck in his journeys through the Old Land with the vast Improvement in trade and industry generally, the effects of which, he thought, must soon be felt here. He instanced that the steamer upon which he returned, a few days ago, brought out a bigger cargo than the vessel had carried for years; in fact, previously they had come out in ballast. England was undoubtedly well out of the depression. The Christmas trade had simply surprised everybody; it was the best for years.
