Provisional Directors : The Hon. Wm. Hunter Reynolds, of Dunedin M.L.C. of New Zealand. The Hon. John Martin, of Wellington, M.L.C of New Zealand. The Hon. John Ballanoe, Colonial Treasurer o New Zealand. The Hon. Robert Stout, Attorney-General o New Zealand. James Allen. Esq.. of Dunedin. C.

Temporary Offices : Lloyd's Rooms, Brandon-street, Wellington. This Company is farmed for two objects : Ist and chiefly—For lending money at current rates of interest upon the security of landed property siiuated within the Colony of New Zealand ; and 2cd. For acquiring, when deemed advisable, landed property situated in or near to citi«s or towns, or centres of population, in the Colony of New Zealand, and thereafter selling it again in whole or in lots as may suit purchasers. With a, fast increasing population both in town and country, a very fine climate, and land of great fertility opened up by the construction ot roads and railways, there is an almost in exhaustible field for the profitable investment of money in the manner proposed by thi3 Com pany, and it is one very little occupied. This Company intends to oocupy that field, and to oiier to the publio—particularly to farm settlers, and the working population generally— facilities for acquirinK property, and fer erecting houses, or effecting other subbtantial improve ments thereon, on reasonably moderate terms. And the Company can do so profitably to the Shareholders, while at the same time help is given to people who are willing to pay ade quately for the advantages and accommodation offered. In no case -wilt money be lent otherwise than upon the security of landed property, a safe margin being always kept. The system which prevails all over the Colony in the buying of land, is that of deferring payment of the price,—so much being paid as a deposit when the purchase is made, and the remainder by bills for im-.taiments, spread over a limited period of from one to three years, the title being only granted when the price is fully paid up. This Company, in consequence of being in a Po^jtiou^to pay in Cash at once, will Pfi?yyßlbiB a terms .hah" "buyers on deferred payments ; and it is certain that, by the exercise of ordinary care, a safe and very profitable kind of business can be done by bujing land and selling again in lots to suit purchasers. It is very well known that Companies in New Zealand having objects similar to those of this Company have been able, notwithstanding very limited resources, not only to pay large divi dends, but also to add to capital. ■ It is not intended to call up more rthan £1 per share, at the outset at least. The Promoters consider that, with 10s. per share paid up, the Company may make a fair beginning; and they confidently anticipate that, besides paying a good dividend to the Shareholders, the Directors will also, by judicious investments in landed property, be able from time to time, out of profits, to make additions to Capital. The turn over of Capital wiU be quick, and there will no doubt be available soon a considerable amount of money from deposits made by people both at Home and in New Zealand, so that a large paid-up Capital is not necessary. Prospectuses, with Forms of Application for Shares, may be obtained at the Offices of the Company, or from the Bankers, at the Welling ton Office, or at any of the Branches, and the Memorandum and Articles of Association may bejseen in the hands of the Secretary. Should no Allotment be made, the Deposit will be returned without any deduction. Llloyd's Rooms, Brandon-street, Wellington, October, 1878. SOUTH BRITISH INSURANCE COMPANY, CAPITAL, £1,000,000.

The Australian Anti-Fever Tree—That is, the Blue Gum, or Eucalytus globulus— has now spread its fame throughout the world, thougfc many do not properly estimate its splendid qualities.^ The Essence as manufactured bj Messrs Sander and Son, although not a panaces for every ill that flesh is heir to, is, nevertheless a Grand Remedial Agent. In Scarlet, Typhoid, or any case of Fever nothing will protect better against contagior than a few drops of the essence poured in the palm of the hand, and rubbed in, in order tc liberate the vapours, or sprinkled over the clothes. The perfume will be noticed for a greai length of time. Inwardly used, take three or four drops in haL a tumbler of water. The essence effects amos surprising change of the whole constitution correcting Indigestion, and creating a Healths Appetite. In Cases of Sickness, 'a few drops put into £ saucer, and put into the room, will, being ai etheric essence, evaporate, and fill the roon with the purifying vapour. Are you obliged to travel 1 A few drops oc casionally rubbed on the body wiU protec against any contagion you maybe exposed to ii coming direct with sick persons, or in sleeping in the same room with, or in beds occupied pre vious'y by, sick persons. All Hot'elkeepers will do well in sprinkling from time to time in drawers, where linen ii usually kept, a few drops of the pure essence It produces no spots whatever, as every partich of it evaporates, and nothing remains. For all Wounds, Cuts, Bums, Scaldings.Ulcers and Cancerous Wounds, a' piece of linei wrapped round the suffering part, and moistec with a few drops of the eucalypti essence, wil stop all pain, and effect a speedy cure. Ih case where a piece of linen cannot be applied, tin moistening of the suffering part with the pun essence will do as well.■ ■■' ■■ ''-■ In Case of Colds, moisten the nostrils with i few drops and inhale the vapour, and you wil feel the immediate relief and entire riddance o the heat.
