The Directors of the Auckland Gas Company (Limited), have (in view of the approach of winter), had a number of tests made, for the purpose of ascertaining the A'alue of gas as com pared with other materials for producing artifi cial light; the result, which is embodied in a ' table given below, proves beyond any doubt that gas is considerably cheaper than either oil or candles. Gas is acknowledged to be superior to every other material as a light-giving agent; not only on account of its brilliancy and cheapness, but because it is safer, economises time and labour, and is more easily managed. ■ - . Table showing that 1000 cubic feet of gas yields a light equal in intensity to 3J gallons of kero sene, or to 6(Hlbs. of tallow candles; or to 78+lbs. of ordinary stearine or sperm candles; or to 61}lbs. of pure sperm or wax candles.

Jamieson." "Piei-Hold, Dnncdin, 25th. May, 1876.—Sir,— Having liccn much benefltted by the use of your Indian Medicine, 1 have great pleasure in adding my testimony as to its cilicacy, andean recom mend others to try it. Some ol: my friends, who have also been using these medicines, speak very favourably of them, and have received much benefit from their use.—(Signed), Ophelia "Vort Chalmers, New Zealand, 3rd July, 187 G. Sir,—l think it my duty to state that your Gill ian's Rheumatism Mixture has proved in my case to be all that you have represented it to be ; and for the sake of those who may be suffering the misery and torture of severe Rheumatism, such as I endured previous to taking your in valuable medicine I beg to state that I had been suffering the most excruciating agony from severe Rheumatism for over two years. I could not rest at night. My appetite was gpne, my general health shattered, and the pains through out my limbs and loins were constant and almost insupportable. I was induced to try your Rheu matism Mixture, and found myself getting better after taking three bottles! of it. I continued taking the medicine for about six weeks, and become perfectly restored to health, being per fectly cured of all pain or symptoms of Rheuma tism My appetite is excellent, and I sleep well at night.—Signed), Fred.

I had been suffering from very severe rheumatic attacks for about 15 years, accompanied by most agonising pains in my limbs and loins, through which my rest was much disturbed at night, my appetite very imperfect, and my general health altogether impaired. I am happy to state that I am now free from the pains I had experienced for so many years. I can sleep well at night, my appetite arid general health are much improved, and I can attend to my business and house duties. This happy change has been brought about by the use of your Rheumatism Mixture lor about two months.—l am, Sir, youre gratefully.- 187 6 .-Sir,_H a ving taken your Ghollah's Rheumatic Mixture lor some considerable time, and having been com pletely cured by its use, of the very severe rheu matic rout from which I had suffered most severely foVthe last ten years, I can bear testi mony to its most extraordinary curatic powers. I am now free from all pain, and well in my health, and have the free use of my hands and feet, which I had not previous to taking your medicine. I think it right to state, for the bene fit of others suffering the tortures that I endured for the period above stated, that I attribute my restoration to health and freedom from pain entirely to the use of your invaluable medicine. I can strongly recommend it those Buffering from rheumatism or gout.-(Signed), John Gkiffkn, J.P."
