3,000 JEWELLERS.

The Waterbury Watch Company, in their advice to their representative in New Zealand by lasb mail, state thab so well has their new line of short-wind watches been received that already three thousand jewellers in the United States of America have sent in their orders. Considering the population of America, each of the above jewellers will represent 20.C00 people, and what their requirements will be care nob very easily estimated. New Zealand has done ita share toward building up a trade in these wonderful watch es. Already 79,000 Waterburys have been nold in this colony, and the public will be glad to know fcbafc all the leading jewellens are. carrying them in stock. Whilst tijhis is the case with the reliable Waterburg- the cheap Continental Watches have almost disappeared from the Australasian markets, a 6 they have from America.

Mr Walter Fricu'cer, one of the candidates for the South Ward, publishes his address to the burgesses elsewhere. He says that although for several years a resident in South Ward, he is not perhaps well known to the majority of electors, and therefore he states fchaC for some years he occupied a prominent position in public affairs ab the Thames, and gained in that capacity such experience as warrants him entering upon tho pnesenfc contest.
