TO THE MERCHANTS AND PRODUCERB OF HEW ZEALAND. f^i TSNTLEMEN.- Knowing tho difficulty \JC experienced in finding reliable Agents in Sydney, I beg to offer my services to Shippers, and at a very eably d vte I, or one of my representatives, WILL vipit all the important centres in your colony. In the meantime, any communications addressed to me are sure to meet with due attention, and I shall be glad to furnish the fullest information as to my COMMERCIAL STANDING, and Way (f doing business. My business includes eveky possible line ok produce and live stock, the VJ?RY SMALLEST SB Well as the MOST FXTKNrive consignments meeting with equal care. I ace always as an agent only, giving my employers the benefit of my best experience, and never dealing or buying on my own acoount. lam prepared to make advances to any amount on produce on hand or coming forward for sale, and all proceeds are available within a week, or at any time sooner after sale. I can satisfy all who deal with me on these points. Sales are conducted BY Auction beveral times weekly, and privately, just as may be found best for my constituents, whose interests are always my first study, My stores are very extensive, and were built by my?elf expressly for the business I am engaged in, and whenever advisable I can store goods to any extent and at trifling cost compared with agents who pay enormus revts, or who have not the came advantages. My business connection with both buyers and consignors extends all over the Australian Colonies, so that no Agent CAN possibly OFFER GREATER FACILITIES for | the disposal of such produce as comes from New Zealand. My orders from the country districts and Queensland always take large parcels of Bttcter, Cheese, Bacon, Oats, Peas, Bran, Maize, &c, leaving me often independent of the Sydmy Market, although my weekly sacfs Ib. that market are second to those of no other agent. No better proof can be afforded as to the way my business is done than the fact that all round ir is second to NONE In Sydney, and is rapidly increasing yearly year, the Increase being most marked during the last year or two, even with agents more numerous than ever, and, of course, more competition. My charges for Commission, Storage, Cartage, etc., are all regulated by the STRICTEST RULES of ECONOMY, and in SPECIAL cases, such as of merchants or large consignors, I am prepared to make every possible concession. Owing to my position and business facilities generally, no Agent can offer better terms in any respect whatever. Your truly, JOHN BRIDGE, Quay, Darling Harbor, 13y and.Sußsex |Store,|Sydney,
