T ADIES, TAKE NOTE OF'tHIS !— JLJ Two important points should not be lost sight of in selecting a Sewing Machine. First: Be not misled by long and extravagant puffs in the papers about Machines which are frequently made only to sell, and more frequently sold by those who, from their want of mechanical know ledge, can only parrot-like repeat the puff. 2nd: Beware of purchasing a Sewing Machine because it happens to be a few shillings cheaper, and have afterwards to pay dearly for it in worry, delay, and vexation. The undersigned, from his intimate knowledge of SewiDs Mechanism, can confidently recommend Taylor's Patent Sewing Machine as a really good, genuine, and well tested-Machine. In addition- to the Lock-stitch Machine, the Taylor Co. have introduced a good Twisted Loop Machine. Price, with extras, 2 Guineas.—lnspection invited at the Sole Agent's, T.

WHAT A DIFFERENCE there is in women. The wise ones have already bought all my White, Blue and Black Hamburg Net, and I have only some of the Brown left, in different patterns, and that is going fast too; and no wonder, when I am selling it at the ridiculous price of Is a yard. I have just bought a Jot of Black, White, and Brown Hamburg Trimming, and will sell it at 2d, 3d, and &<L yard; so don't be too late. The ladies tell me there isn't a man more talked of by them in Auckland than I am, and no wonder, when lam always buying them something nice. I only wish I could get Borne more Shirt Fronts like I am now selling at 6d each. What would the Queen say if she saw my new lot of lovely Cuffs and Collars? I have plenty of the Collars, but the Cuffs are going so fast that they will soon be all sold; Embroidery, 4d a yard; Ladies' White Stockings, 6d; a few Boys' Woolen Jackets left at 2s. I will now reduce my 6s Jackets to ia, and my 4s ones to 3s 6d. Already about three parts of the Scarf Shawls I told you of are sold, and which measure 3 yards 7 inches long, and over 2 feet wide. If there are any married men who wish their wives to live a long while, and I believe there are some who do, let them prove it by treating their wives to one of these Shawls this cold weather. Toilet Fringe, Id a yard; Lace, Id a yard: Clark's skeins Crochet Cotton, 2Jd or 2s id. per doz; Hair Pins, od a dozen boxes, or 2 boxes a penny ; Towels, 3d and 6d ; Trouser Buttons, 2d per dozen. If you wish to look like a Queen, come and see tho lovely bargains I have just bought—namely, Black Bracelets, tid per pair." They look like real jot. Such lovely Necklets, with lockets, 3s each. They look like 18 carat gold, and if they are not I will give you your money back. I will now give your hus bands an inducement to take you out for a walk a little oftener by selling such handsome Watch Guards at 2s each. All I need say about them is that though " they may not be" more than 9 carat gold, they look as well as many that are 18 carat, and somebody loses awfully on them, 1 can assure you. As you ladies are fond of the beautiful, come and look at my immense Btock of magnificent Belt Clasps, the higheat price of which is Is a pair. The small shopkeepers should buy quickly my round jjooking Glasses at Bd, Is, and Is 6d per dozen ; Silk Cushion Cord, 6d per dozen yards; Slates, 3d ; Towels, 3d; fresh lot of Bog Oak Brooches, 6d each. I want to see how many sensible tailors will come and buy my CO inch Tape Measures at Id each, worth 6d; my Lidcn Machine Thread at Cd a 2 oz. reel, and my Tailor's Thimbles at 9d a doz., worth 3d each. If all the women in Auckland were as sharp as my lady customers, I shouldn't have any 200 jard reels of Ulazed Cotton left to sell at 8d a dozen, nor any 50-yard ditto to sell at 4d per dozen; but there are sure to be some stupid women in every country. My Ruche (different colours) is going well at Id a yard. I shouldn't be at all surprised but what some of the ladies have been telling their husbands about my Men's superior Felt Hats at 2s 6d, aB there has been a great run on them lately. I havo also some at 2s. Handsome Coloured Satin Fur niture Trimming, 6d per yard; Coloured Fur- Braid, 6d per dozen yards; Black and Green Furniture Gimp, 6d per dozen yards; Black Bugle Dress Gimp, reduced to id per yard. Isnit it a wonder ladies that I manage to live when I am continually reducing something for you. Satin and Velvet Tubular Trimming, 2d per yard ; White Diuini-nd Braid, 61 per dozen yards ; Window Blind Cord. 6ti per dozen yards; White Handled Knives and Forks, 9d per pair; Men's Coloured Shirts, 2s; Crimean ditto, 2s 6d to 4s ; 18 knots of Piping Cord for 6d, or two a penny; American Cloth for table covers, Is 3d per yard. Some ladies I hear are mak ing Cushions with my twopenny Hair Pads, and Antimacassars of my Hamburg net. I wish more of the Men knew what good wives they have to be so inprenious. Ladies Handsome Bags, is 6d; Brazil Nuts, 6d per lb; a fresh lot of the Wonderful Two Shilling Tea. I have'nt had any Children's Poll Combs to boast of lately, but I have now at 3d to Cd each; handsome Bodkins, 3d a doz; Shoe Brushes, with veneered backs, 3 for 2s 6d; a few dozen Pork Pie Hats leit, reduced to 6d each; a few Men's Courier Bags left at 2s and 2s 6d. Will you believe that lam Bellini? Linen Shirt Fronts with or without collars, at 6d each; about half of them are already gone. Black Braid, Id a dozen yards; Grey and Brown do. 6d a i gross; Green and Purple do, Is 6d a i-groS3 ; white handled Kuives, 3d each; a few Rink Muffs left, 3s 6d each; a few Waterproof Coata left, reduced to 6s each ; colored Bag Binding, 4d a dozen yards ; a few Men's Patont Leather Leggings left, reduced to 3a Gd a pair. I am selling Carte-de-Visites of the principal people in the world at lOd each or 8s a dozen ; Cabinet size, Is 6d each. What will the men do when all my Satin Scarfs at Is are all gone, audit will not be long, for I have already sold I should think about 45 dozen. I shall want you ladies to buy my handsome Belt Buckles at 2d to la as soon as you can, as I have bought over 92 dozen. 1 have also bought about 80 dozen pairs of Bracelets, which I am selling 6d and 9d a pair, and they are beauties ; ladies high Button Boots, 5s 6d. Some ladies have sense enough to give me Is 6d for a good Umbrella, but' they don't all appear to have. Military Braid reduced to 4d a dozen yards. I will now open a fresh lot of Chignons in separate boxes and sell them at Is. All the othera I now reduce to 9d. I have also a great bargain in Ribbon at IA to 8d a yard; do. nearly 3J inches wide 9 Is; black Yulcauite Chain, 9d a yard; green blue violet ond drab Dress Gimp, 2d a yard; also green, blue, and drab Silk Fringe, 3d a yard, Come and see my handsome Black Hair and. Hat Ornaments, from 3d to 9d; White Bed Lace, 6d a dozen yards. lam now selling the coarse Reels of Machine Silk that the ladies ilike at 2d orls9d a dozen; 30 yards do, la 3d a dozen or ljdareel; Shoemaker's Tape Measures, Id each ; Tasso Trimming, 2d a yai d; good, size colored bordered Pocket Handkerchiefs, 3d each; good Elastic, 36yds for Is; black glass Dre3s Buttons, 2d a dozen ; large Black Satin do, 4d; Colored do, 4d. Now lam not going to say that there is one bad woman in Auckland, but still I will say that some are a great deal better than others.; for instance I believe some ladies come and get their bargains of me as usual, and hug them all to themselves, not saying a word to their friends about the wonder ful bargains they have bought, whilst the good ladies show what they have bought of me, and tell the price they have paid, and so do good to those they know, including myself. I have a few Hawking Baskets cheap for those who are thinking of going into business. There is one advantage the ladies will gain by reading this advertisement oyer again, and that is they will be able to write down what they wish to remember. Tell your husbands to come and see my strong useful Shoes at 4s a pair.—W. H. Dampier, Victoria-street, corner of Hobson street.

TAXATION "O lEVED m- READ THIS CAREFULLY. Much ado is being made at the present time about the tax on Beer, and the cry is—" Why tax the poor man any more." But without dis cussing the pros, and cons, of the above tax, J. LEVY would call the attention of the Public of Auck land—and especially the Working Classes—to the Great Reduction which hehasmadeinthe price of Men's, Boy's, and Youth's READY-MADE CLOTHING. This great reduction on what is realiy necessary for the Working Man's comfort, will more than recompense him for the tax on beer. Warm Clothing Is a necessity ; Beer is a luxury. Be wise, therefore, and have necessities first, and if you have any spare Cash afterwards, then indulge in luxuries. J. LEVY does not intend in this advertisement to B'By much, as the (Parliamentary reports occupy so much space, but he has no fear but the few remarks he has offered will cause men to think aright, and if they are wise, they will lose no time in calling upon their old friend, who assures them that he has in stock everything that is requisite for their requirements. • j.llevy Makes no apology for republishing his PRICE LIST again. It caused a sensation before, and will do so again, especially as nearly all the lines have been reduced.
