Salea were effected at 3s lOd lo 3s 10i<i f.o.b. for mixed lines of prime quality, and 3a 9d for second quality. There Have been few local offerings during the last day or two, but several lines have gone into ■tore on owners' account. There have, however, been offered in Cbrislaburch 6000 bushels of prime velvet at 3a 10£d, 1500 bushels of extra prime velvet, and 2500 bushels of velvet and Hunter's at 5a 101 all round ex store at Timaru, equal to another penny per bushel f.0.b., but so far bo busi ness has resulted. The expiry of old con- J tracts has resulted in enquiries being made' from Auckland, and during the week the ! sale of a sample lot of 400 sicks mixed pearl, Tuscan and Hunter's has taken place at slightly over current quotations, "^h tild the parcel turn out well other sales will probably follow. The Danedin mirket ■bows practically no change. Oaw—Milling aud stout feed varieties ate still enquire! for, and the dem -nd at auction OB Friday waa active. In Dunedin the market is fairly active, and as offerings were nob «p to requirements during the week prices hardened to the txfeutof about $ 1 per bushel. Prime milling are quoted at Is lid to 2s, prime short feed Is 9&d to Is lOd, medium Is 3d to Is 9d (sacks extra). South land oats are gelling at Is 61 to Is 6|d for prime feed at country stations (sacks extra), acd Is 7d has been obtained for prime samples loaded at handy stations. Barley—There is nothiDg to rep^f" in barley &s the market is in a quiescent state. A fair amount of business is being done in Dunedin at 3s 5d to 3s 9d (sacks extra) for bright, plump samples of malting, and in Southland old barley is bringing from 3* 8d to 4s on tracks, while it is anticipated that the sew season's crop will open at about 3s 6d.

He is said to have been in tears the greater part of the day succeeding his great victory, and pathetic indeed, is the exclamation attributed to him, " Believe me, there is nothing more terrible than a battle won, except a battle lost." But who can describe a man's anger —controlled of course—where, every pre paration having been made for an urgent journey, eveiv. : is lost through the horse falling lame, and the man—always the man—is the object of our pity. The horse's unuttered sufferings ate rarely thought of, beyond the removal of the shoe (often unskilfully done) and an imprecation upon the blacksmith, The owner ought to consider his servant's comfort, who, could he speak, would say, " 1 uttered no com plaint until forced; I used to be tieated with greatest consideration and kindness, and a journey was always a pleasure to me when my shoeing was under the personal care of MR KINGSTON. 2 17 wixijamlE" =PATCHING, EAST STREET.

SANDER & Sobis Eucalypti Extract _ , There are imitations of Eucalypti Extract in the market now, products of simple distillation form'^g rude resinous oils. In order that the?c crude oils may not betaken, OTJR PURB VOLATILE EUCALYPTI EXTRACT, which is r cognised by the medical division of the Prussian Government to be of perfectly pure origin, as their information forwarded to us through the Consul at Melbourne, March 2, 1878, we state :— Is provei by teats by the Medical Clinics of the Universities at Bonn and G-re'fswald, Prussia, and reported by Dr Schulz, Professor of farmacology, at Bon, and Professor Dr Mosler, Director of the Medical Clinic at Qreifswald, that, only products that are saturated w'thoxygen and freed of acids, resiuo s and other substances, adnerent to primary distillation, will davek-pe the sanative qualities proper to the plar.t according to these authorities, and accor ling to Pro fessor Dr Lister, of England, and to D>s Bauer Mclutire, Wool, Hazard, eu\, of America, is tha o iy extract corresponding to scientific te t--, and the only one whieh possesses the proper therapeutic value. Sander «fc Son's Eucalypti Extract. All other crude oils are to be classed among the turpentines, which have, wben used as medicine, no therapeutic effect, anl are abandoned as an iner;>a] medicament. These so-dlled Eucalypti Extracts which may have received distinction st Kxhi 1 itions as commercial articles are used for mechanical purposes ■re only discernible. By their deficiency in pu'i petit odour—which our product, the only genuine Eucalypti Extracts developes most treely through iis surplus of oxygen By their alcoholic thin and mobile appearance beit-g reduced in specific density through the. presence of acids By their taste, the result cf the contracting ten dency of resins and tennatcs. If these crude oils, so-called eucalypti extracts, are applied by mistakv in cases of croup, I ronchiti , diph theria, internal inflammations, dysentery, wounds, the consequences are appalling. For safely, always ask for SANDER & SON'S ETTCALYPTI EXTRACT, and get the old, well-test3d, afd reliable preparation —Sandhurst, Victoria, Australia.
