WONDERS NEVER CEASE.

The old time-worn adage that " there is nothing new under the sun," in which we always had complete belief, has been now demonstrated to be a complete fallacy. We have been impelled to change our faith by having viewed with astonishment the marvellous rapidity and comoletejjoos. in its re-silvering qualities, of one of the lfftost scientific discoveries of W. Edison, called "Elecbrine.'' This is a compound co ingeniously prepared by which the active principles of an electro-plating battery are concentrated into so sensitive a stato that its application to any of the usual metals for electro-plating immediately produces a resulb so marvellous that it bids fair to fevolationiso tho trade. This happy conception musb prove of incalculable service bo bho thrifty housewife, tho übiquitous cyclist, tho equestrian —in fact to tbe whole of mankind. VV. Edison justifiably claims for his invention thab its re-silvering effecb upon such domestic articles aa spoons, forks, cruets, etc., is so rapid bhab tbe ■martosb electricians have marvelled and been lost in wonder. VVe learn from trade journals that) some ef the leading electroplating firms'in America are now neing bhiß compound in place of the old process. VVa are plaased to state that ono of onr leading firms of Auckland (Mackay, Logan, Sfeeon and Co.) have imported this marvellous preparation, and we feel convinced thab those who use ib will be more than pleased by viowing the re-silvering of all fcbeir household requisites. Wholesale only—Mackay, Logan, Steen and Co. Retail from all grocers and store, keepers.
