LABOR.

Adelaide, September 22. The smelter's strike has collapsed. The men are resuming work at lower rates than those ruling before the strike. Sidney, September 23. There is likely to be a strike over j the reduction of printers' wages. The Typographical Associationhasrequested the men not to enter upon an agree ment with the masters without con sulting the Society. The masters are not likely to submit the matter m dispute to a Conference, because the men refused such a course some time ago. Between five and six hundred men are affected. (Received September 24, noon.) Sydney, September 24. The Secretary to the local branch of the Workers' Union issued a manifesto calling upon shearers to defend their rights against the attacks of the Pastoralists' Union, and the hawks and bloodhounds of the combined monetary institutions of the colonies. Brisbane, September 24. The strike has been officially de clared off m the Western district. The chairman of the local camp states 1 the embittered condition of the men is largely due to failure to get work, and further outrages are probable. He attributes the loss of the day to dis affection among Unionists themselves. Government intend to relieve the distress among the strikers.

Springbank, Moeraki, March 5, 1891. Mr Walker. Dear Sir,—l can testify to the wonderful cure I got by using the LON DON EHEUMATIO CUBE. I was suffering badly with rheumatics m my hands and wrists ; the back of my hand was badly dis colored. I rubbed them well with the Cure, and am thankful to tell you they are quite better. Thomas Glances Ashburton, Ootober, 1893. Your LONDON EHEUMATIC CUBE is a remedy worthy to be praised. I took rheu matic fever and was a good while m the hands of the doctors; at last it seemed all to lodge mmy ankle. I had to walk with a otutcta and stick. The doctor at last advised me to go to Christehuroh and got the foot taken off, which I objected to do. I got vary disheartened, as there geemed no cure for me. I heard of the LONDON BHEUMA.TIC CUBE, and got one bottle, and before it was done I was able to lay aside my sticks and to resume business, arid have had no trouble since. It is a valuable remedy. I can highly recommend it, as I believe it has no equal. Di Macphebson. Lower High Street, Christohuroh, May 1893 I have bean a sufferer from Chilblains einoe a boy; my hands broke out every winter, and my feet were so bad that on "i Saturday nights I had to fill my boots at the nrtesian end stand m this till shutting time.

I can recommend it with all con fidence to those suffering with Chilblains. J W Bice Sold by all Storekeepers Wholesale Agent for Colony R. WALKER, Woolston Canal Reserve.

After the canny fashion of their race, the Scottish vo'.unteers Lave been count ing up the amount of hard cash—exclusive, of cops, medals, badges, etc—won by their representatives at Bisley, and they are grimly pleased with the result of the inquiry, Nowlthetanding that the amount j offered m prize at Bisley is nearly £2000 less than at Wimbledon, Scotland's total this year Is uuprecedenteJly large, the 50 leading Scottish shots carrying off £1416 among them. The 3rd Lanark alone took £500 of this total. Taking all the meetings up to date, and not that at Bialey alone, it is found that Scottish volunteers have this year won £1773 at Scottish meetings and £3450 at international meetings, making a grand total of £5223. These figures are likely to give to volunteering m Scotland an impetus, which, to tell tho truth, it> needed.
