Coal and Iron Seams at Raglan.

Hamilton, thisday —Important mineral discoveries have been made at Raglan. Mr Fergusson has brought to light extensive beds of coal and iron, samples of which have been forwarded to'Uhe "Waikato Times." Coal has been found at the head of Raglan harbour, on Todd's Crock, about four miles inland. The seam is six feet thick, and there are live different tributaries loading on to tho main seam. The coal appears to ex tend over a largo area of country, as very superior samples havo been found in other creeks. Iron ore, which looks very superior, has been found halfa-milo from water carriage, and convenient to the town ship. Mr Bryce was expected here from Kawhia to day, but did not arrive, probably owing to the state of the roads.

To tlio Editor: Sir,—The paragraph which appeared in your issue last night anent tlio rescuing of cattle from tho Mount Eden Pound was not quite correct, inns much as it stated that the cattle were put in the Pound by me, I never put any in —only feed and let them out if not rescued at night, as was the case tho other night. As 1 am ever anxious to accord credit to whom it is due, I may state that those bovine fugitives wero impounded by the lute respected master of tho Industrial Homo—Mr Stickley—wlio has the proud distinction of being ranger for tho domain of Eden. As an action for rescuing U impending, I shall not trouble you further. — Yours, A-c., A. Crockett, Pountlkceper.

THE PAIN ENTIRELY LEFT.

"Clarence Cottage, "Thomas-Btreot, Balmain "August 21,188 r_bli_aef--ACCB:t_-D Evening Stab. "Dear Sirs,—About a fortnight ago I had a sevore attaok of rheumatism in my back, whicn gave me no end of pain and troublo. I used St. Jacobs Oil, aud in one or two applications tho pain entirely loft. Since then I have had occasion to use the oil on a badly sprained wrist, and its effect was simply magical. My wife has used it for neuralgia in the head, with equally satisfactory results. I consider fat. Jacobs Oil a valuable preparation, and shall not only uso it in my own house, but shall recom mend my friends to do so. " I remain, dear Sirs, your truly, "W. P. Booth."

MICHAEL M. McGIRR, ESQ.,

OF THE FREEMAN'S JOURNAL, BECOMES A FIRM BELIEVER.

" Gentlemen^-I beg to honestly and truth fully give you tho result of my experience after using St. Jacobs Oil forasevero case of gout. I had been suffering for three weeks with sore ness and inflammation in the toes of my right foot. On Thursday last I had to leave my office and go home to bed. I obtained a bottle of St. Jacobs Oil, and thought I would give it a trial, and after rubbing tho affected part briskly for ten minutes, I got relief. Next morn ing I again rubbed it, and from that time I have been free from pain. Again, on Sunday act, the same symptoms appeared in the left toot. I applied St. Jacobs Oil as in the first case, and with equal success. Having been a sceptic hitherto, I now subscribe myself a firm holfever In tho efficacy good of St. Jacob. A Remaining, dear Sirs, faithfully yours, Michael M. McGinn,
