Direct Steam Service.

Since the issue of the last edition of the "Handbook," two magnificent lines of ocean steamers have been started from London to New Zealand. The New Zealand Shipping Company, which was first in the field, is under contract with the New Zealand Government for carrying Her Majesty's mails. Both the New Zealand Shipping Company's and Shaw, Savill, and Albion Company's steamers have frequently made the voyage in less than 40 days.
