Thames, this day,

Sthan'CK complicitions have arisen in con nection with tho annual elections of borough councillors. The borough solicitor, when consulted relative to some minor matters of detail, made tho startling discovery "that the Returning Officers appointment did not entitle him to conduct elections in separate wards," but he advised that the proceedings already commenced be con tinued, and an Order-in-Council would be subsequently obtained validating the elec tion. The Council decided upon the course proposed, but the Colonial Secretary re fuses to validate the elections, pronouncing the whole proceedings invalid. The exten sion of time allowed for holding tho elec tions will be gazetted and everything will require to be commenced ile novo.

New Phince Imperial. — The western stopes at No. 6 level produced GOlbs of specimens this morning, and a rich show of gold remains. The manager has now more than 3cwt. of stone on hand. Since the morning the stopes above No. 6 level have yielded 2$ cwt. of rich spec:. mens. On visiting tho mine at noon I found a magnificent show of gold in the fifth and sixth stopes, equalling in richness anything yet found in the mine. The precious metal is visible along the footwall of the lodo in length nearly 20 feet, and is in some places three inches in breadth, promising well for the next breaking-down. There are still about 40 feet of backs, and to-day's hauls have been made directly underneath where the gold wai obtained at tho next level.

A majority of the ratepayers in each of tho Dunedin licensing districts have signed petitions praying that the districts should be amalgamated.

One of my apprentices, named Watton, took very ill with neuralgia, and was confined to his bed quite delirious. Several remedies were tried, without the least effect. He was advised to try St. Jacobs Oil, and after bathing his f>ce with it, got Immediate relief. In speaking to his father, Mr K. B. Watton, he desired me to state that for the lust seven years he has had a severe attack of gout annually, which completely laid him up fora week at a time. He felt it coming on lately, got a bottle of Su Jacobs Oil and rubbed it on the affected part before going to bed, and next morning all pain had left and he was able to go to his business as usual, and has not had an attack since. I have used this universal remedy myself and in my own family, and can vouch for its magical effect.
