E,very make of Machine, however far removed from excellence, professes to be better than any other. The task of selecting a Sewing Machine is thefSfore -rather a difficult one, especially if the purchaser has no knowledge of machines,,and has no other guide than the representation of various dealers. Many people convinced of ' the advantage to be derived fromiising'a Machine for needlework do not ' yet possess one because among so many they aire unable to satisfy themselves as to which make is the best. As a practical man and an Engineer allow mt to point out some of the advantages of these Machines. They will do all that any ether Machine will, and do it letter, including Hemming. Quilting, Felling, Cording, Binding, Braiding. Stitching, &c, &c, with a perfect stitch alike on both sides. They are fitted with an i>tprovkd break, which prevents the Machine turning the wrong way, and so entangling and breaking the thread. They.make less noise than most Machines, and is the nearest possible approach to i^iseless. They are very simple,-and. ■»yi]l run for years without costing a shilling for ttn 'ms. .

Wardrop, Esq., Shortland street. ' The rapidly-inoreaslng Importance of the mercantile interests in tho group of islands comprised in the Kingdom of Fiji, and tho absence of any reliable medium of exchange in that territory, have suggested the formation'of this Company, which, It is intended, shall supply ordinary Banking facilities and under take commercial agency business, by indenting goods, advancing on the produce of settlers, and undertaking consignments. Notwithstanding the difficulties which the early settlers in these Islands have encountered, the^pro gr?ss made in the development of Commerce has been very satisfactory,—the returns of exports and Imports exhibiting rapid expansion. The capabilities of the Islands for sugar and cotton cultivation are of the very highest description, and, with the introduction of capital and the means afforded to planters to turn their produce to account, there can be no doubt that the above interests will be very speedily and largely increased. Already, tracts of country, have been secured by' planters ' from othor sugar-producing countries, the climate and noil of Fiji offering superior advantages.: . ■ : ■ . '• The European population is already considerable, and rapidly increasing; and the general desire to support law arid order, and the partial recognition of ■the Government by Great Britain, afford treasonable ground for believing that transactions iji>Fiji may be undertaken with safety, and with the same recourse as In lnbr? settled communities. > Important concessions, including an eiclunive right to issue bank notes and,to transact all Government business, are .under offer toi the Company and, from data furnished, to the promoters, it is believed that a very satisfactory return on the capital to be invested will be ensured. • • The scope of the C»mpany's operations will not be confined to Fiji, but will embrace the numerous 'groups of Islands in the Pacific, as encouragement may from time- to time offer: ' ' . • It is believed that a paid-up Capital of £50>000 will, for a time, amply provide for the current requirementg of the Company, the un-psid Capital remaining as a basis for credit with its Agent 3. A further Issue of shares will be made as required, on terms to be settled ■by the Board of iDireqtors. ~ \ Of the£2 10s to be called upon the First Issue of shares, a deposit1 of 103 per share will be required on application and a like amount ton allotment. Sub , sequent calls-will bo made as required, not exoeeding ' £1 per share, with a notice of not less than one month. Nopromoters* or paid-up shares will be issued, and the preliminary expenses are guaranteed not to exceed : £1,000. .'■ . . ■>.-.'■■ ■ m Applications for shares—accompanied by a deposit of 10s per share—will be received by the Secretary on and after Ist August and up to Ist Septemper next, •a preference being given to priority of application.
