THE PATENT OVAL SAMSON FENCE WIRE Has now been before the public for four years, and during that time 5,000 TONS HAVE BEEN SOLD Giving very great satisfaction, in proof of which we hold numerous testimonials from wfcll-known colonists ; and the demand is daily increasing to such an extent, that numerous spurious imitations have lately been introduced in the 'various markets of Australia and New Zealand, for the sole purpose of damaging the. reputation of the Patent Oval Samson Wire. The Samson Wire ■By Using the Patent Oval Fence Wire you get a better and cheaper fence than any other, and the best proofs are the mitations already referred to. JSS"A comprehensive circular as to its advantages, with numerous testimonials from well-known colonists, will be'posted to any address on application. ' The state Forests of Victoria are fenced with the Patent Oval Samson Fence Wire; the one at Dookie is, without doubt, the best Wire Fence in Australia) and, people come from great distances to see it.

Yet, in the face bf these patents, firms—many of. respecaltry standing—have, for the sake of a paltry commission, lent themselves to the intro duction of various spurious imitations, which render them liable to actions at law, and annoyance and disappointment to the users. We would point out to intending pur chasers that any persen erecting Oval Wire Fences, other than the Patent Oval Sam son, renders, himself liable for damages. The Patent Acts on this point are very explicit; therefore, after this notice no excuse can be made. We have had instances brought under oui notice where semepersonshave been so un principled as to mix the Spurious Oval Wire amongst the Patent Oval Samson in order to make- a sale, arid dariiage the the reputation of the genuine article. We have a great aversion to take legal proceedings in this matter, but shall be compelled to, in self-defence, unless th se practices are at once stopped.

Hairdressing, called THE MEXICAN HAIR RE NEWER, now beings sold by most Che mists and perfumers througout the coun- at 3s. 6d.- per bottle, is fas); ■ super ceding all the old restorers' and dyes for the purpose of changing grey or white hair to its natural original color,) for it will positively restore the hair in every case of greyness to its original color, iwith out dyeing it or leaving that offensive smell which most of the hair preparations of the day do. This preparation has never been known to fail in restoring the hair to its natural color .and glosf in from eight to twelve days. ' It promotes growth and prevents the hair falling out, eradicating dandruff, and leaving the scalp in a clean, healthy condition. It imparts peculiar vitality to the roots of the hair, restoring it to its youthful freshness and, vigor. Daily applications of this preparation for a week or two will surely restore fadecj, grey, or white hair to its natural color and richness. It is not a dye, nor does it con tain any coloring matter or offensive substance whatever. Hence it does not soil the hands, tlie scalp, or even white linen, but produces the color within the substance of the hair. Read the follow ing from Mr. Nathan Berry, Chemist, Walkden : “ One of my customers told me the other day he had had grey hair for thirty-five years, and after using one bottle of the Mexican Hair Renewer 1 sold him, it was restored to and;kept its natural color.” It may be had of any respectable Chemist, Perfumer, or Dealer in toilet articles in the kingdom, at 3s. fid. per bottle. —Prepared by HENRY C.

OCKLE’S ANTIBILIOUS PILLS— These Pills consist of a careful and peculiar admixture of the best and mild est vegetable aperients, with the pure ex tract of the flowers of the camomile. They will be found a most efficacious remedy for derangement of the digestive organs, and for torpid action of the liver and bowels, which produce indigestion and the several varieties of bilious and liver complaints. They speedily remove the irritation and feverish state of the stomach, allay spasm, correct the morbid condition of the liver and organs subser vient to digestion, promote a due and healthy secretion of bile, and relieve the constitution of all gouty matter and other impurities, which, by circulating in the blood, most injuriously affect the action of the kidneys ; thus, by removing the causes productive of so much discomfort, they restore the energies of both body and mind. To those who indulge in the luxuries of the table these pills will prove highly useful, occasioning no pain in their action, unless they meet with an unusual quantity of acrid bile and acid matter in the stomach and bowels. To Europeans on their arrival in India or China they are recommended as a preservative against the fatal disorders peculiar to tropical climates. Their occasional use, if com bined with the strictest attention to diet, will be frequently found to remove at once, by their influence over the secre tions, that congestive and unhealthy con dition of the liver which is so often the earliest antecedent of severe febrile and constitutional disturbance. It must be understood that these pills are not recommended as containing any new or dangerously active ingredients; on the contrary, they are characterised by a remarkable simplicity of combination, and whatever merit they may be found to possess depends as much upon the selec tion of pure drugs, and the unusual labor and attention bestowed upon their subse quent preparation, as upon the acknow- 1 ledged peculiarity of their composition, • They are not recommended as a panacea, nor are they adapted to all complaints; but as a mild and efficacious aperient and tonic in the various forms of indigestion, ( it will not, perhaps, be an exaggeration to . state that they have been resorted to , under all systems of diet, changes of oli- j niate, or atmospheric alternations with i an extraordinary degree of success for upwards of seventy-eight years. This t celebrated family aperient may be had I throughout the United Kingdom in boxes i at Is l£d, 2s 9d, 4s fid, and lls Od, as j well as in India, China, New Zealand, and I S the Australian Colonies.
