It is not often that the arrival of a shipment of goods in New Zealand waters ie bo generally welcomed as the arrival of the present parcel of Watorbury watohea. By the fire on tbe Ruahine

3000 Watkrburys--gold, silver, and nickel— were destroyed, and tbis interruption in the regular Inflow bas kept the market bare till the landing of the present parcel. The Hon. Dr. Pollen stated ia the Legislative Council that

95,000 Adult Males

pay the wholo of thi . colony-, taxation, maintains its Civil Service, runs its railways and public works, and forms tbe nucleus of the colony's prosperity j and yet to this very limited population over

120,000 Waterburys have been sold and delivered, and the shipment now landing consists of

2880 WATERBURYS, wbioh is fo' lowed by tho Elinor Vernon, due in a month with

2880 More,

all sold already to the wholesale trade, who have been waiting supplies for from three to four months. Lirce as these figures are, two otber shipments are to arrive beforo Ch.iitniaß, and we venture to affirm that no otber watch can show a sale in New Zealand dutiog the period covered since the Waterbury advent o

One to Each Hundred Watkrburys.
