THE CUKE IS AT HAND. JXOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT ( Scorbutic Eruptions," as Sore Heads and Scrofulous Sv>elliv.(js.— lf this powerful Ointment bo well rubbey into the parts affected all skin disease will bo speedild 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 euro. The Pills should be taken as an auxiliary to tho Ointment, they are so prepared as to act in unison with it, facilitating and confirming the conquest of tho disease Mptheria, Ulcerated Sore Throat and Quinsey. —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 are more easily cured by theso medicines than even the common sore throat, if taken in time. The Kidneys, Stone and Gravel. —ln theso complaints tho Ointment almost acts like a charm, pro viding it is very effectually rubbed over the regions of the kidneys, which it will penetrate and give almost immediate relief, while the Pills should be taken according to the printed directions, when the most extraordinary cures may bo elfected by this means. Bad Legs, Bad Breasts, Scrofulous Sores, and , Glandular Svjellinrjs. —ln such cases tho Ointment operates surely and with a rapidity that resembles magic. It should be rubbed into the parts affected after they have been fomented with lukewarm water. The purifying and curative powers of this marvellous unguent ha-ve ncvo rfailed. 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 the printed directions. The Action of the Heart—Dropsy.—The last named disease is commonly preceded by irregular action of the heart, and difficult respiration ; which symptoms we always severe, and evergo from bad to worse unless proper means of cure arc resorted to. In Holloway's unrivalled Ointment and Pills the dropsical patient will ever find succour ; tho present relief derived from the use of these remedies is marvellously quick and perseverance in the steady application of this famous Ointment invariably results in a_ euro. Thoy 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 Rheumatism may be cured with tho greatest certainty if large quantities of tho Ointment be well worked into the complaining parts, and this perseveringly done for some time. It is no use to smear it on the skin only, it must bo got into the system. Take as many rills nightly as will act two or tftree times during tho 24 hours; 8 chew the use ot eofree, and all stimulants. When these complaintf are leaving the system tho virulence ot the complaint frequently seems to increase. Indiscretion of Yoth.— Sores, ulcers, and swellings c<ui with certainty be cured if this Ointment be thoroughly nibbed all round the complaining parts twice or thrice a day, keeping them covered with linen rag spread with the same. Tho Pills must be taken according to the printed directions. The blood being in an impure state perseveraiico is necessary. From humane motives etters of advice will be answered gratuitously. To aye carriage, tho Pills and Ointment should be ob ained in the neighbourhood of the sufferer, and not rom Holloway's Establishment " jjoth the Ointment and the rills should be used in th following cases: — Bad Legs Cancers Scalds Bad Breasts Contracted and Sore Nipples Burns Stiff Joints Sore-throats Bunions Elephantiasis- Skin-disease Bite of Mosquitos Fistulas Scurvy and Sand-Flies Gout Sore-head i Cooo-bay Glandular Swell- Tumours Chiego-foot ings j Ulcers Chilblains Lumbago (Wounds Chapped Hands Piles Yaws.

Election. | THE SUPERINTEN DEN V V ELECT [ON. ELECTORS OF THE PROVINCE OF AUCKLAND. G?NTLEM RNs—Tt5 —Tt appears to me that it has now hecomo desirabln that the con trol of Auckland Provincial affairs should lie trans- . forced to the hands of others than those by whom tha province has been governed dutinp tne past. With splendid resources in lard, co;il, gold, iron, and other minerals ; with a climate unsurpassed by any in tho world; mid with a sturdy and industrious population of from 00,000 to 70,000 ! people, who pay some C 300.000 por annum in t.-.xes in ore shape or another for puiposes good government, public works, etc., it is saddening to find that we its a province are not only making little or no ndvance towards permanent pros perity, but that at many points wo are actually retro grading. J attribute this state of tilings 1o misgovernment, the ill-judged expenditure of public money and ex travagance in the past, which have, entailed upon the community gr'cvous burdens in the form of public debts, for which interest and Uniting 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 prcs'nt moment the Provincial authorities of Auckland are 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 a!, a farther disadvantage by reason of the manner it lins been dealt with by the General Government in the expenditure of the ! lai'EO loans which were negotiated on tho credit of the whole colony for purposes of Immigration and Public Works. Although wo in Auckland are charge ililo wil.h the re-payment of about one-fourth part of those lonns, mil itltbonirh wa contribute in about that plop rtion towards jroviiling interest and sinking funds thereon, yet owinp to want of united action by our Superintendent and Representatives only a very small portion of the borrowed money has ; be^n employed for ©ur benefit. Our Provincial Revenue for the rnsning year will probably be under £50,000, and out of this sum we have to maintain our Polico, Gaols, Hospitals Lunatic ■ Asjhims, Sick and Destitute. Harbours, &c. which , 1 cost some ,e'!3,000 per annum. After paying the Provincial salaries and Departmental expenses on the present sca'o little or nothing will therefo-o remain for aid to Road Hoards, for Bridges, ferries. Tram ; ways at the GoldfieWs, &c, and in view of this state | of things T believe it is our first duty to reduce these | Provincial salaries and Departmental expenses to an amount proportionate to our altered means, i Our next duty is to require at the hands of our re presentatives that they unite in demanding fr< m the Assembly and the Government that justice shall no longer be denied to this province in the mutter of tho | expenditure of the money borrowed upon our credit conjointly with that of tho rest nf the colony. I desire tobeconrc Superintendent of the Province that r may lie in a position to give practical effect to the above views. :um] Hint there may be snmn com bined effort made to hiing about a different state of things that more vitility may be imparted to our in dustries, .'.mli ;v.\ Mining, Afjririiltnral pumiits. Trade and fommoivc. nnd Manufactures. If, however, you i-re content to go on xi of yore, and eluct a polit'cißn of tl.o old Auckland school, I think you will find, when tno Into, that ad ditional burdensome taxation must speedily be resorted to. You will also probably find that the old system of denominational "education will lie introduced into thin province, a system so often used ;is an iistrnment of favoritism to ore party and ot opprns-ion to nnnUicr; ■■: system so productive of sectarian jea'nmica nnd bickerings that it has been abandoned by morn advanced communities in favour of a national secular educa tional system. Should u.n restore the o d regime to power you will also find that the control' of the Police will soon bo transferred to the Provincial authorities to be used as it was before, for party or political purposes During this election contest I have boon treated with unfaimers by a portion of the Auckland Fress. but as many of you arc aware the persons whom thuso papers represent are interested in re-introducing and continuing tho state of things which has led the provinces into its present position liy the abuse of political power and patronage in the past they them selns have been unnblo to piosppr, whilo the pro vince Ims st Uiigntaticrl that it can hardly be in a worse position, and it now r sts 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 nic 'your confidence and support, that 1 may with the aid of a well chosen Provincial Council be enabled to inaugurate a change towards a belter and healthier era. If you d me the honour to elect mo I will apply myself diligently and strenuously to effect retrenchment in Provincial salaries and oilier Departmental oxpensos: to obtain just ec for the Province at the hands of the General (Government and to provide permanently for tho mean;; necessary to carry out a system of education without resorting to any such obnoxious and unjust mcHSure us tho present Education Tax I am, Gentlemen, Yours faithfully, •I.

Reasons Why DOWNER'S KEROSENE OIL Shouldjbc used by Consumers in preference to any mne Petroleum Oil. Ist. It is safe, having a fire test of never less than 12f.° Fahrenheit. 2nd. Tt is finished by distillation, without treatment with acids an.l alkalies as the last process. It is • double distilled for the purpose of removing the acids ! and alkalies used in the manufacture of all Petroleum I Oils, but which cannot bo removed except by their I process. 3rd. The Downer Oil boing chemically pure, burns with more brilliancy of flarno, consuming less oil for a given amount of light. It .gives less trouble, because the Lamps require less frequent filling, and the wick I less frequent trimming. 4th. Although the Downer Oil costs more per gallon than other oils, it is, in the end, cheaper for the con sumer, because it gives a greater amount of light with consumption of oil. Your grocer may tell you he has on sale an oil in uality equal to Downer Oil. Don't believe this story. Downer Oil is quoted and known all over the world ]as the highest standard brand. This reputation has been achieved by its having been made by a better process and more costly than others, which process has been adhered to from the beginning, without re gard to expense. it 2" N.B.— JDOWNEE'S KEROSENE IS THE ONLY BRAND That? will/give [entire, satisfaction in the Anucapnic Lamp.
