Captain Russell at Christchurch.

Christchuroh, April 10 Captain Russell addressed a public meeting at the Theatre Royal to night, The attendance was large. The Mayor occupied the chair. Captain Russell claimed that to the Opposition was due credit fot the introduction of the principal labor bills, and the institution of triennial parliaments. The Government had got into office on the cry that they would restore pros perity, but while he did not say the present depressed condition of the colony was due either wholly or chiefly to ths policy of the Government, yet that policy was creating a great deal of disquiet. Capital had been frightened, away, merchants and farmers were suffering, and artizans were out of work. The people were disquieted because they did not know the finan cial position of the colony. Ten days had elapsed since the close of the financial year and no statement of the year's finance had yet been published This information was still withheld, though they had received the financial results of the year in Great Britain, and they knew the position of each of the Australian colonies. Ho went into figures to show that the Govern ment had not had a surplus at all; that, really, the finances had gone further to the bad every year. The surplus was only on paper. New Zea land was the most heavily taxed of the colonies through the Customs. The Government had increased the liabili-

ies of the colony, and also increased

its debt. He referred at some length to the Land for Settlements Act and the Sergeant-at-Arms case. He adversely criticised the Cheviot and Pom'ahaka purchases, and con cluded by saying that the day was com ing when the people would realise that his party were their best friends — when New Zealand would not believe in blatant humbug and hypocrisy, but in honesty and truth. Captain Russell receivad a vote of thanks, on the motion of Mr W. Rsece, seconded by Mr G. T. Booth, and the meeting con cluded with cheers and counter cheers.

TIMOTHY. I AM A BUYKH OF FIRST-CLASS SAMPLES. F, FERRIMAN. j FOB BALE OTRONG SHEEP NETriWG, WITH CENTRE STRAND. F. FERRIMAN , The Portable Water Barrow. The latest number of the Nineteenth Century has an interesting article upon the dread scourge of; DIPHTHERIA, and, in introducing the subject, the writer remarks, that the lateßt epideuticff in Hussia swept-away nearly all the children in some villages \ and, in Prussia, no less than one sixth to one-fourth part of all children dying in the age of from one to five years succumbed to Diphtheria, and the tame proportion prevailed in Western Europe as well. Keen interest is being taken in the expeiiments of the French Doctors, Roux and Tersen ; but Diphtheria, like Anthrax, Cholera, Typhoid, Malaria and other kindred complaints is due to. an infection of the body by special bacteria, caused by the effluvia rising from drains, back yards and premises generally into and upon which dairy and kitchen slops have been thrown. Without an infection by Bacteria or the poison* which they secrete, there is nodiphtheria. The Portable Wash Barrow fa just the one thing indispensable in the direction of perfect I sanitary arrangements. By its use, a two-fold benefit is derived.. The fever , and diphtheria breeding agencies are removed, and what U otherwise a source of terror becomes an absolute gain, by conveying the wash to the pig trough or to the garden. The Portable Barrows can be put to various kinds of use, and they are so admirably constructed that, with them, a child can ,'do work which otherwise requires the strength of mature years. The cost is comparatively small . Possession of one becomes an absolute; means of sweetness, comfort and profit, * : IMPROVED COPPER BOILERS, I have just received direct from the manufacturers a supply of Portable Copper Eoilkrs, with Patent Smoke Sack Joint, and Semi double Sheeted Frame—Galvanised, This Useful Household Bequisite should be inspected, when its various excellencies of construction, strength, and serviceabicness, will speak for themselves.
