I HAVE NO OBJECTION TO DIS CUSS the following subjects with either the St. James's or any other Discussion Class :— Did Julius Csesar ever wear a BeUtopper, or. if he did, was it anything equal to those I am sel ling at 8s ? Did ho wear a Satin Scarf on Sun days, or, if so, was it as good as mine at Is? Did his mother wear a Crinoline, and, 11 so, could it possibly be equal to miue at la 6d, un less she stole it? Did Mrs. Julius Csesar wear Josephine Kid Gloves, or. admitting that she did. which I think is doubtful, were they equal to mine at Is 6d a pair? Did Mary Queen of Scots use a Hand Mirror, or was it as handsome or as large as I sell for 3s? Were Dre^s Jm ptoversin fashion in her time? or were they a las good as mine at 6d each ? Were there any Babies in the 9th century, or, if so, did their I mothers buy them Pun? Boxes with puff like I mine at Is 6d? Was Shakespeare ever talked I of half so much in his time by the ladies as W. 1 H. Dampier is ? Do the Ladieß of Auckland care 1 as much to read the " Twelve Tribes of Israel" as they do to read Dampier. advertisement? 1 [ shall, of course, take the negative side on all the i above subjects if called upon, exoepting ''Were there any Babies in the 9th century," wliich I am not quite prepared to deny entirely, but firmiy believe that they wore not half so numeious in Auckland at that time as they appear to be now. And now, Ladies, I have to talk about subjects a little more serious. You know the Fashionable Two-button Kid Gloves I bought you lately ? well, there are only three pairs left out of 20 dozen, so let that be a warn ing to those ladies " who put off till to-morrow what they should do to-day. 1 have now a nice lot of Fresh Bargains, including Josephine Kid Gloves, but only No. 6 size mind, so that it is necessary to have either ohildren or girls, or to have very small hands yourself. Those ladies who are always behind will Btand a good chance, if they don't mind, of being too late also for my new lovely thickly-fringed Silk Scarves at Is 6d, and which are going well. Before I forget it, I beg to toiider tho ladies my sincere thanks for bringing their husbands with them lately to buy Hats and Vests of me, and when I get into Parliament, which " may" be next year, I won't, as far as I am concerned, allow any duty to be put on Babies' Cradles, though babies are so plentiful. I may as well 'ell tho ladies, how ever, that I Lave a " down" on infants from one to two years old, as they rob me at every opportunity. They are not particular whether it is a pair of Protty Blue or Red Boots, which I sell, "when they let me," at Is 9d, or whether it is a 7 eel of my Machine Thread, for which they can have no earthly use, and which are going fast at Sd. I have alreaay sold, as near as I can tell, at'out 8 dozen of tho Falls from 9d to Is each. I have sold about 25 dozen Boys' Felt Hats at 2s in two days short of five weeks, and tho number of Men's Black and White ditto I have Eold these last two weeks at 2s 6d is wonderb 1. You can give a few htay Busks away to the poor now ladies, as I have bought lately 90 dozen, a bargain, and will sell them at 3u a pair; also Ladies' White Concts, 2s a pair; and 86 dozen ditto, much superior, at 3s, a little Sj.ccted, but none the worse. Tell your lady friends, so that they may not require to use my now lot of Id Handkerchiefs to cry in when they hear of their being all sold.
