The Taranaki Dummying Charges.

[per press association.]

New Plymouth, April 17. When the Supreme Court opened this morning Mr Samuel, on behalf of his client, Pease, found guilty of making a false declara tion, wished to withdraw the point raised for appeal, and asked that sentence be pro nounced. He did so owing to the strong recommendation for mercy which the jury had added to their verdict. Peaße, in answer to the usual formula, said he was eorry he had used the wrong form, but had no inten tion of deceiving anyone. The Judge said it was his intention to give the fullest effect to the recommendation, and repeated what he had said in-summing up, that there was great laxity on the part of the Government in not proceeding before, because if the i declaration was false on the face of it pro- j ceedings should have been taken at once, and moreover if the application Mas on a wrong form it should have been rejected and applicant informed, Hia sentence was three days' imprisonment, to commence with the opening of the Court, and as this time had expired, the Judge informed him that he was discharged. Hawjsra, April 18. It is reported here that Government have lodged an appeal against the decision of the Land Board in the Hendy-Pebber .case, .

He hoped that the Treasurer would bo enabled to take his seat n«xt session to receive the congratu lations which were sure to be showered on Mm by both sides of the House. He deprecated the my in which the Press h»d spoken about the Premier s successor when no occasion presented llsel.. lie opposed the blate farm at Waverloy on the ground that it was not fair to bring men from Chnstchurch and Dunedin to cope with th.3 settlers of the district. He favored the Minister for Public Works having a seat with the Railway Commissioners, as fche electors were justly entitled to a re presentative in their control. He said that a revision of the Custom* tariff was looming ahead, as some ctty members supporting the Government were wanting protection, if not prohibition, and he Understood Government was eager t tinker the tariff to any extent. He con demned the co-operative principle in public works as unfair to the majority of workmen.

In order that these crude oils may not be taken > Our Pure Volatile Euca lypti Extract, which is recognised by the medical division of the Prussian Government to be of perfectly pure origin, as per information forwarded to us through the Consul at Melbourne, March 2, 1878, we state:— It is proved by tests made by the Medical Clinics of the Universities at Bonn and Greifswald, Prussia, and reported by Dr Schulz, Professor of Pharmacology at Bonn, and Professor Dr Mosler, Director of the Medical Clinic at GreifsM'ald, that only products that are saturated with oxygen and freed of acids, resinous and other substances, adherent to primary distillation, will develop the sanative qualities proper to the plant. Sander and Sons' Eucalypti Extract, according to these authorities, and according to Professor Dr Lister, of England, and to Drs Bauer, Alclntire, Wood, Hazard, etc., of America, isthe only extract corresponding to scientific tests, and the only one which possesses the proper therapeutic value. All other crude oils are to be classed among the turpentimes, which have, when used as medicine, no therapeutic effect and are abandoned as an internal medicament. These so called Eucalypti Extracts, w,hich may have received distinction at Exhibitions as commercial articles and are used for mechanical purposes only are discernible j 1. By their deficiency in pungent odour (which our product, the only genuine Eucalypti Extract, develops most freely through its surplus of oxygen). 2. By their alcoholic thin and mobile appearance, being reduced in specific density through the presence of acids. 3. By their taste, the result o! the contracting tendency of resirs and tiwmatef. If these -crude oils,- or bo called-cncalypti extracts are applied by mistake in cases of croup, bronchitis, diptheria, internal in flammations, dysentery, wounds, etc., the consequences are most appalling.
