BRETT'S AUCKLAND iLMANAC AND PROVINCIAL HANDBOOK For 1885 Will contain Specialties of a now and attractive character, and will bo the best Shilling Volume cvor offerod to the public. Tho aim oC this work is to describe In an Ir.^ toresting manner tho vast resources, tho climate, and tho scenery of tho Auckland Provincial Dittrict; its mountains, harbours, rivers, and lakos; its forests and its plains; its cultivated and waste lands; and to show foreign capitalists that our genial clime, rich lands, mineral pro ducts, and intelligent, go-ahead poople, offer in ducement to intending invostors or settlers superior to those of any other part of the world. Other Colonial Handbooks have invariably misrepresented this naturally rich and beautiful Province, while many pages of the above work aro devoted entirely to setting forth Auckland's capabilities, and its many superior advantages. In addition to whioh, tho fullest Information is alxordod of all political, social, and religious matters of Provincial or Colonial importance. As each year thd contents are re-written, and the statistical information brought up to the latest date, tho annual volume becomes a valu able work of reference worthy of. a pormanont place in evory colonist's library. Guaranteed Circulation, 6,000 Copies. Last yoar'B entire issue was sold completely oilt in six weeksi As tho book has now bocomo a work of dolly reference in tho homo of overy Bottler through out tho province, and is in uso in all publio offices throughout tho colony, and in many lead ing places abroad, it may with confidence bo de scribed as tho bout permanent medium of ad vertising olForod to buslnoss men. It is estimated that at least 2,000 copies of this book aro Bent abroad annually by merchants to tlioir foroign correspondents, and by residents to their friends who are meditating emigration to Now Zealand. They aro found on all incom ing passcngor ships and stcamors. The work will bo issued at tho old price— ONE SHILLING.
