[advertisement.] New Zealand I have travelled through, And it has pleased me much, Sirs, To find that rivalry exists, Amongst colonial Butchers. His" Beef and Mutton I have found, In quality superior, And if of him you always buy, You'll never have inferior. ■ So roll you up to GEORGE'S shop, And do not think it funny, That there, and only there, you'll get, Real value for your money. By reason I will here explain : I get my Meat much cheaper, And in my wife's domestic claims, It costs me less to keep her. But in my travels I have seen, No Meat to GEORGE'S equal, And if the wherefore you would know, I'll now supply the sequel. He's really master of his trade, As I have proved by trial, And sure I am this statement will Admit of no denial. The Shop you'll find in Wakefield-street j And if you are out buying You'll find no other house in town Such bargains is supplying. Of all the Meat that's there for sale It's quality is such, sirs, - That GEORGE must really be pronounced The best of Auckland Butchers. Note the address : E. GEORGE & 00,, Queen and Wakefield-streets.
