A WONDERFUL PREACHER

The French and Italian papers are giving glowing accounts of the immense crowds which are being attracted daily to the Duomo at Turin by Father Augustine ot Montefeltro, a Francisan monk, whose extraordinary eloquence is said to be equalled by his great humility and un affected piety. Many uabelievers are at tracted to the cathedral. A letter says : H At the Duomo on Wednesday for fonr hours before the Father ascended the pulpit all the ohairs and all the benches were occupied 'ihe precincts of the vast church seemed transformed into a sea of human heads. The .dicine word coming from the mouth of the humble brother electrified the congrega tion. Several times the sacred associa tions of the place were powerless to keep back the applause which broke out with irresistible force. At Pisa the University closed two hours before the Eermon began, and professors and students ran 'with one accord to hear the illua rious Franciscan. On coming Out of church the thousands of persons greeted him ■with their cheers and huzzahfl. They wißhed to carry him m triumph through the 'streets. The railway directors, m order to meet the demands upon their .- trafflo, had to organise on each day apeoial trains from Luoca and Leghorn, and from several other neighboring to wna and vil lages Strangers arrived by thousands, and all the hotels were full." The father U forty years of age j his face is open and full of iatelligenca ; m his eye burns the flime of apostolic fire ; when he preaches his face is transformed - he seems like an inspired aad commanding prophet. His subject ia "Truth," and he has exposed with withering sarcasm the foibles and unrealities of society.

HOME MARKETS.

\ The National Mortgage and Agenoy Company of New Zealand, Limited, report under date London, April 2 lot, as follows :— Wool — Since the commencement of the series the attendsnoe of buyers has increased, and all sections of the trade are ' now well represented. Prices on the opening night were quoted firm for merino wools of good growth and condition, some weakness and irregularity, however, being noticeable m values for inferior and faulty descriptions- At the beginning of the noond week a somewhat stronger tone characterised the market. The better classes of merino combing and fine-balred clothing wools, when In good condition and free from burr and seed, may now be quoted firm at the dosing rates of the February serlei, but most other descrlp. Mono have lo^ ground to the extern of from sto 7£ per cent , the decline vary ing m proportion to uncertainty of shrinkage or prevalence of burrs, &c. New Zealand merino wools have not been offered iv large quantities. Some choice clips m the grease have, however, passed the hammer at moderate rates, although thesbsenoe of orders on American account has made a marked , difference m values for wools of this class. Scoured New Zealand merino is scarce, and the small quantity offered has consequently oom manded full rates. Wheat.— The weather for the past week has been all that could be desired- for agricultural operations, and field work has been pushed forward rapidly,, while the winter sown crops are reported to be m a healthy condition though, raihar back ward. The trade has at last shown a change, and the market now bears a firm tone, whilst prlcas have moved upward to the extent of 6ito la p6r quarter. The improvement originated m America or, the publication of the monthly crop re port by the Washington Bureau, which stated the estimated yield of the winter orop to be 82 per cent as against 88 per cant last year. The etfeot of this on the various markets of the fJnlted States vtm Immediately apparent, and as qaotat'.ona improved each day, onr own market m well as those on the Continent were favorably affected. Receipts and !aimerB r deliveries have been coneldev&bhp under estimated requirement*, althougk the im ports of flour as against wheat hawe been very hesvy, whilst tupphes afloafecontiaue to increase, owing to large ahlpments by South Raßsla «nd Aoßltilb..

Br/XTEB.— No Colonial parcels have been on the market during the fortnight, but the general market haa been dull and values have been lower, the finest Patch only fetching 80s to 819 per cwt. • Cheese,— The market for Amerioan haa been better, and values are now quoted up to 58a pec cwt. Meat. —The warmer weather which has prevailed reoantly has had an adverse effect on prloea, and values all round ara easier m oonaequenoe, Suppliea have been moderate, and demand has been fairly good, especially within the last day or two, but priods Bhow no tendency to improve at present. American beef has been exceedingly cheap, and as the quality haa been good, the mutton trade has been prejadi hlly affected to a certain extent. Frxzan Msat has declined £i per lb, and Lamb about £d. With tne advent of warmer weathar a better enquiry may be expected for lamb, but English Is plentiful and ranges m value from 8d to lOd per Ik, as per quality. The preßent top price for Colonial is 63 per lb. Trade In the provinces has been fair, and the , quantity p'a^d there has been larger than oaual daring the fortnight.

We have been a Firm of Analytical Ohemlata for many, many years and have m the long course of this time manufactured certain Medicines that being based on scientific formula and abaolnte oare and precision m mannfaoture, have enjoyed a popularity far m advance of any other Pharmaceuti- cal Preparations of the day. How suc- cessful we have be*n m this, is only to note the extraordinary amount of the tales of our Haydook s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to atrte that we have sold 28,083 Vials of Db Haydook's New Liver Pill*. The reason of this de. mand is beoause we find m Haydook' New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of oonoentrated medlolne. The Victories of Soienoe — Eleotrlo Telegraphs, Steam and Printing — revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet- ter. So, although there are oountless PIIIb used fo> diseases and olklmlng maoh as to theii merit, tht, remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook has eollpaed them all, and has founded a New Medloal Sys- tem. The Dootors, whose vaat doses of four or five pilla enfeeble the atomaoh and paralyxe the bowels, must give way to the man who restored health and appetite with one 01 two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pilla.
