far distant, when we may hope to extend our 
researches as far as Entry Island, in Cook’s Straits ; 
and shall thus know the whole of the northern 
island of New Zealand, in the length and in the 
breadth thereof. Every effort is being made to 
discover,"and to bring into service, the resources 
of the country itself, that we may be enabled to 
form new and distant Stations, without incurring 
much additional expense. By this method, also, the 
natives tliemselves will be materially benefitted ; 
as the work w ill be accomplished principally by 
their agency ; and they will see that their native 
land ^affords them many necessary, and some 
luxurious articles, with which they are now sup- 
plying themselves from other nations, at a large 
outlay of labour or of property — labour, which 
might be much better applied, and property 
which might be turned to far better account.
