Provincial Laboratory, Auckland. Octobei 26, 1875.—MR. E. WATERS: Sir,—l have much pleasure in informing you, that after haA'ing made a very careful analysis of various samples of sweetmeats manufactured by you, I find that they are free from all adulteration, and that the colouring matters are quite innocuous. With regard to the Chocolate, I find that it is quite equal to the best English or French prepara tioas; and, being entirely free from husk, it will form an excellent article of diet for invabds, especially those suffering from an impaired digestion.—l have the honour to be, sir, your obedient servant, James M.
