TXOLLO WAY'S OINTMEN3 Scorbutic Eruptions, as Sore TTcads andScrofnltma Swellings.—lt this powerful Ointment ho well rnhbr-y into the parts affected all skin disease will be specdild overcome. It acts not by repression, but repulsion. It enters the system as salt enters meat, and operates not locally only, but constitutionally purifying the whole system, neutralizing all depraved humours, and effecting a radical and complete" cure. The Pills should be taken as an auxiliary to the Ointment, they_ are so prepared as to act in unison with it, facilitating and confirming the conquest of the. disease JHpflwria, Ulcerated Sore Throat anil Quinscy. —The above complaints have for twenty years been treated with Holloway's Ointment and Pills with perfect success. The cures have been so remarkable, speedy, and numerous, that these often fatal diseases arc more easily cured by these medicines than even tho common sore throat,, if taken in time. Tin- Kidneys, Stone and Gravel.— Tn these complaints tho Ointment almost acts like a charm, pro viding it is very effectually rubbed over the regions of tho kidneys, which it will penetrato and givo almost immediate relief, while tho Fills should bo taken according to tho printed directions, when tho most extraordinary cures may bo effected by this means. Had Legs, Had Breasts, Scrofulous Sores, «j!d Olandular Swellings.—ln such cases tho Ointment 1 operates surely and with a rapidity that resembles magic. It should bo rubbed into the parts affected •_ I after they have been fomented with lukewarm water. The purifying and curative powers of this marvellous unguent havo neve rfailcd. An old sore, wound, or ■ ulcer always yields to its influence, and in cases of bad ' breasts, or milk fevers, its action is wonderful. Glandular swellings may soon be reduced by following tho printed directions. 'Die Action of the Heart—Dropsy.— Tho last named disease is commonly preceded by irregular action of the heart, and difficult respiration ; which symptoms Brc always scvero, and ever go from bad to worse unless 1 proper means of cure are resorted to. In Holloway's unrivalled Ointment and Pills the dropsical patient will ever find succour ; the present relief derived from the use of these remedies is marvellously quick and perseverance in tho steady application of this famous Ointment invariably results in a_ euro. They act with such energy on the - circulation and absorbent system that the dropsical fluid vanishes, and the sufferer finds all the oppressive symptoms daily decline till natural health returns. Gout and lihewnalism may bo cured with the greatest certainty if largo quantities of tho Ointment bo well worked into the complaining parts, and this persevoringly done for some time. It is no use to smear it on the skin only, it must be got into the system. Take as many Pills nightly as will act two or three times during the 24 hours; BChew the use ot coffoc, and all stimulants. When these complaint! arc leaving tho system the virulence ot the complaint frequently seems to increase. Indiscretion of Yoth.— Sores, ulcers, and swellings can with certainty be cured if this Ointment be thoroughly rubbed all round the complaining parts twico or thrico a day, keeping them covered with ■ linen rag spread with the same. The Pills must bo taken according to the printed directions. Tho blood being in an impure state perseverance is necessary. From humane motives letters of advice will be answered gratuitously. To save carriage, the Pills and Ointment should, bo ob tained in the neighbourhood of the sufferer, and not rom Holloway's Establishment Both the Ointment and the Pills should oe used in th following cases: — Bad Legs Cancers Scalds Bad Breasts Contracted and Sore Nipples Burns Stiff Joints Sore-throatsJ Bunions Elephantiasis Skin-diseaso Bite of Mosquitos Fistulas Scurvy and Sand-Flies Gout Sore-heads Coco-bay Glandular Swell- Tumours Chiego-foot ings Ulcers Chilblains Lumbago Wounds Chapped Hands Files Yaws.

Election. THE SUPERINTENDENCY ELECTION. ELECTORS OF THE PROVINCE OF AUCKLAND. Q. PNTLEMEN,—It appears to mo iVJ that it has now 1 ccome desirable that tho con ; trol of Auckland Provincial affairs should be trans ferred to tlw hands of others than those by whom the province has been governed durir.p the past. With splendid resources in land, coal, gold, iron, and other minerals ; with a climate unsurpassed by any in the world ; and with a sturdy and industrious population of from 00,000 to 70 000 people, who pay some £300,000 per annum in t.xes in one shape or another for purposes good government, public works &c., it is saddening to find that we as a province are not only I malum; little or no advance towards permanent pros perity, but that at many points we arc actually retro grading. f attribute this slate of things to misgovernment, the ill-judged expenditure of public money and ex travagance in tho past, which have entailed upon tho community grievous burdens in the form of public debts, for which interest and sinking funds have now to be provided by oppressive tariff duties and other forms of taxation. So far has this state of things already gone that at the present moment the Provincial'authorities of Auckland arc at their wits'end, and find it exceed ingly difficult and embarrassing to provide adequate means even for such an important object as educa t on. This Province is placed at a further disadvantage by reason of Mtn manner if-, lms been dealt with by i the General Government in the expenditure of the lurpe loans which wore nnaotfa'ccl on the credit of i the-whole colony for purposes of Immigration and i Public Works. Although we in Auckland are j chargeable with tho re-payment of about one-fourth part of those loans, and although we contribute in > about that proportion towards providing interest and sinking funds thereon, yet owing to want of united action by our Superintendent and Bojirosentatlves only a very small portion of the borrowed money has j be n employed for our benefit. Our Provincial Bevonuo for the f nsuinrr year will : probably bo under £50,000, and out of this sum we I have to maintain our Police, Gaols, Hospitals. Lunatic Asylums, Sick and Destitute. Ifarbours, &c. which cost some e?,3,000 pir annum. After paying the Provincial salaries and Departmental expennos on the present sca'e little or nothing will therefore remain for aid to Road Hoards, for Bridges Ferries, Tram ways at the Goldliclds, &c, and in view of this state r.r things T bflifvc it is our first duty to reduce these Provincial salaries andl cparlmcntal expenses to an amount proportionate to our altered means. Our next duty is to require at the hands or our re presentatives that they unite in demanding fn m the Assembly and the Government that justice shall no longer be denied to this province in the matter of the expenditure of the money borrowed upon our credit conjointly with that of the rest of the colony. I desire to beeni c Superintendent of the Province that r may be in a position to ( ;l V c practical effect to the above views, and that (hen- niMv be Rome com bined , flr.rt made lobiing about, a different state of thinps that more vitdity may be imparted to our in dustries, such as Wining. Agrir ußural pumiitx, 1 radc and i ommer-'c. and Manufactures. If, however \ on -.-re content to go on as of yore, and elect. » politician of tho o'<! Auckland school, 1 think you will find when too late, that ad ditional burdensome taxation must, speedily be resorted to. You will also probably find that the old system of denominational education will bo introduced into this province, a system so often used as an ir strument of favoritism to one party and ot oppression to another; a system so productive of .sectarian jealousies and bickerings that it has been abandoned by more advanced communities in favour of a national secular educa tional system. Should yon restore the old regime to power you will also find that, the control of the Police will si.on be transferred to the Provincial authorities to be used as it was before-, for party or political purposes 1 luring tills election contest I have been treated with unfairne-s by a portion of the Auckland Press. hut as many of you are aware the persons whom lh-se paper* represent are interested in reintroducing and..continuing the state of things which has led the province into its present position I.v the abuse of political power and patronage in the past they them soL-ts have been unable to prosper, while the pro vince has so languished that it can hardly be in a worse position, and it now r<sis with you electors to say by your votes whether you will entrust your affairs for another period of four years to the old hands, or whether you will give me "your confidence and support, that 1 may with the aid of a well chosen Provincial Council be enabled to inaugurate a change towards a better and healthier era. If you d me the honour tn elect me I will apply myself diligently and strenuously to effect rein ncbmeiit in Provincial salaries end other Departmental expenses to obtain just Cc for the Province at the hands of the General Government and to provide permanently for the means necessary to carry out a si stem of education without resorting to any such obnoxious and unjust measure as the present Education Tax. 1 am.
