TO TPE MERCHANTS AND PRODUCERS OF NEW ZEALAND. f^i ENTLEMEN,— Knowing the difficulty vJ?T experienced in finding reliable Agents in Sydney, I beg to offer my services to Shippers, and at a very eably d*te I, or one of my representatives, "vvili. visit all tbe 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 infokmation aa to my commercial standing, and way cf doing business. My business includes every possible line ov produce and live Btock, the VFRY SMALLEST 88 Well as the MOST FXTBNsive 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 buyiDg on my own account. lam prepared to HAKE 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 pointß. Sales are CONDUCTED BY Auction several times weekly, and privately, just as may be fonnd beßt for my constituents, whose interests are alwayß my first Btudy. My stores are very extensive, and were built by myeeif expressly for tbe business I am ongaged in, and whenever advisable I can store goods to any extent and at trifling cost compared with agenta who pay encrmus revts, or who have not the same advantages. My business connection with both buyers and consignors extends all over the Australian Colonies, so that no Agent; OAN pOßßibly 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 Butier, Cheese, Bacon, Oats, Pbas, Bran, Maize, &c, leaving me often independent of the Sydmy Market, although my weekly sales Ih 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 la second to none ia Sydney, and Is rapidly increasing year by 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 con* signors, I am prepared to make every possible concession. Owing to my position and business facilities generally, no Agent oan offer better terms in any respect whatever. Your truly, JOHN BRIDGE, Quay, Darling Harbor, 13y and_Sussex |Store,|Sydney,
