" The Times " states that the con tinued increase of colonial bills is not regarded with favor in the city, and it is thought that Queensland will ask a new loan with Imperial guarantee, on account of the floods.

The Premier has received the following from the manager of the Union Company: —" We have not a steamer loading for Brisbane direct, bu», we will, however, be glad to lake one hundred tons of gifts of supplies by the Hauroto to Sydney, free of freight, and we have no doubt that similar favorable arrangements can be made with the companies on the other side, as regards freights from Sydney to Brisbane.

THE ASHBURTON QUAKPIAN : WEDNESDAY, FfIBRTTAItr IS, 1893.



JMTx- Jo\ JML. Riolcman's mtnd Sheep Hale.



Mrßickman's stud sheep, which are to be sold to-morrow, have been brought to paddocks near the saleyards, and we had a look over them this morning. The Shropshire Down rams are of course the leading feature, and a handsomer lot of sheep it would be difficult to find. Ihe two-tooths are a grand even lot, those 41 specially bred " being equal in quality, Bhape, and wool to their imported aires, some of which are running with them and will also be sold. The ram lambs are also a wonderfully nice lot. We antici pate keen competition for the Shropshirea, as the breed has proved to be the best of all for producing both wool and mutton of tha highest quality, the largest percent ace of lambs and the earliest maturity. The English Leicester rams consist for the most part of lambs. They are not so fine as some bleeders have produced, showing more of the "Every McLean type, and are very shapely well-woolled sheep- Some stud rams from the most famous studs are also to be offered. About forty purebred Lincoln rams are catalogued, and include some sheep cf exceptional excellence. The massive strong combing merino rams, from Mr John Borton's celebrated flock, by South Australian blood, will aUo claim atten tion, as showing the development possible in the merino. The halfbred rams- Lincoln-Merino and Leicester-Menno— which are just now in so much favor, are also well represented, and are very well shaped, heavily woolled animals. Ihe whole are sound and in good condition, and do credit to Mr Rickman's enterprise and management W. wish hi* a successful sale. The wle, will be 1 eld at the County Saleyards, beginning after the arrival of the express, to-morrow.

The Salvation Army's revival campaign has been carried on with great energy and rnthiisiasm. The "musical evening" on Monday attracted a large crowd of people to the barracks, and the same was the case on Tuesday evening when the attraction was an ''Indian durbar." About 150 members of the Army paraded at-the usual hour, clad in all sorts of fantastic eastern costumes —the men in turbans and loose clothing of licht colored stuff, and the women 111 drapery of the same material, all the colors of the rainbow represented. After parade in the open air, the crowd moved to the lnrracka. Here the " white Hindus were seated on benches raised tier on tier on the platform, and the spectacle was ertaialy very striking, and the arrrange menta of the seats gave full opportunity for the millinery display. There are people we dare say, who can get up a feeling of de votion under such circumstances ; we trust we shall not be irretrievably "judged" if we do not plead guilty to having experienced this devotional feeling. The music was] very hearty, and the addresses of the usual ast in every way, except those by the Indian missionaries cf the Army, which were very nteresting. Still, the charity, earnestness, implicit faith, loyalty, energy, and enthu si?im of the Army may well be imitated by other religious bodies, while the theatrical clement and the familiarity with things nacred, so repulsive to the ortodox may be $if with the Army.
