WAR WITH RUSSIA.—At the pret sent juncture it would be dlfficule for any one except a prophet of th highest rank to eay whether or not the present negotiations between England and Russia will lead to a general European war, or whether they will end in smoke. The absence of full information as to what is transpiring between the two countries may indicate that the political breeze is blowing harmlessly past; or, it may be the awful silence which generally precedes a storm. In either case, we ought to be prepared for the worst. If a general war breaks out the price of nearly every article of commerce will rise. Among other commodities, wool and labor will go up. Now is the time, therefore, to lay in a stock of clothing, before the general ad vance begins. In order that we may not be caught napping we have just purchased a Splendid Assortment of Winter Tweeds and other matetails necessary to a well equipped tailoring establishment, which we are prepared to offer at unusually low prices for cash. Regarding style and fit, it is almost needless for us to repeat what everbody knows, viz, that by our scien tific mode of cutting, and the care exer cised by us in fitting the figure, a mis-fit is an impossibility.— Obaighbad a»d Co., Merchant Tailors, Tanored street.



JBSOLUTION OF PARTNERSHIP. In oonse quence of the firm MEEOH & Co., of Ashburton, Dealers, having been dissolved, and In order to facilitate a settlement between JOHN MEEOH (who takes over the business) and his retiring partner, a CHEAP SALE will commence from to day, of the whole of the stock of well seasoned furniture of all kinds, ironmon gery, crockery, etc., will be cleared out at HALF-PRICE. All debts owing must forthwith be paid to J. 0. DUNCAN, agent, or to JOHN MEEOH ; either of whose receipts will b a sufficient discharge. Funerals conducted at extremely mode rate charges. TTOW VITALITY. DR CHURCHILL’S SYRUP OF HYPOPHOSPHITB OP LIMB is prescribed by the Faculty for the cure of Consumption, Chronic Cough and General Debility. It contains two of the principal ingre dients necessary for building up the human frame, and which are considered deficient in the above complaints, viz., Phosphorus and Lime.
