Pp.ooress of Trade.— No Department of business has, (luring the last few years, made more rapid progress in New Zealand than the Clothing. In the earlier stages of the colony Fit and Style were but a secondary consideration with the manufacturers, and tile consequence was a wide-spread dissatisfaction witli and prejudice against ready made Clothing. To remedy this James Smith, Te Aro House, AVellington, procured samples of the best Styles produced in the City of Melbourne, which place has long held the premier position in the manufacture of Men’s, Boys’, and Youths’ Clothing. Owing however to the high rate of labor it was found impossible to offer any article at a low price. J. S., being in communication with the first houses in London, forwarded the samples to his buyer, under whose superintendence every article of Clothing ordered for Te Aro House is made up. In consequence of the special attention paid to this branch of the business. Te Aro House has acquired throughout the Province the reputation of being the best mart for the selection of very Superior Clothing. Fit, Style, and Quality are all guaranteed, and the residents in the Country districts will find it to their advantage when coming to Wellington to pay a visit to Te Aro House. The Stock is now unprecedentedly large, and for further particulars see last page of this paper

Business NoticesHENRY WALTON, PELL MONGER, And Casli Buyer of Wool, Hides, and Sheep Skins, GLENCRAIGIE, No All AUK ANG A LIKE. WELLINGTON. NOTICE TO BANKERS, MERCHANTS, AND GENERAL DEALERS. FREDERICK JONES, CABINET MAKER AND UPHOLSTERER, § <72 W K Lambton Quay, Wellington, £ W Having just completed Extensive Workshops, is prepared to manufacture ALL DESCRIPTIONS or WORK on the Shortest Notice and MOST REASONABLE TERMS. STEAMERS & SHIPS SUPPLIED with BEDDING. WOOL. WOOL. MILLWALL DOCK COMPANY’S WOOL WAREHOUSES, (COUSENS, MERRY & Co., Lessees.) The attention of Growers and Shippers of Wool is Called to the advantages offered by these Warehouses for the Storage of their produce. They are as follows 1. The Warehouses have been specially constructed for Showing AVool, and are lighted from the roof with north light, giving an even light throughout, so essential to the buyers in their valuations. They are capable of showing 3,000 to 4,000 Bales on one Floor, or 10,000 Bales per diem, and can be extended, if necessary, to take in the whole of the AVool coming into London. 2. The situation of these AVarehouses being alongside the quay, where the wool ships discharge, cartage to the City AVarehouses (in many instances a distance of six miles), and the consequent danger from pilfering, exposure, and damage to which the bales are thus subjected is avoided. 3. Deliveries are conducted with a rapidity hitherto unexampled, as each AVarehouse is surrounded with lines of rails in connection with the main lines, the AVools for the Manufacturing Districts are thus loaded direct into the railway trucks, and those for shipment to the Continent, into export vessels or into lighters from the quay. 4. Reduction in Expenses.—AVools for Home Consumption do not have to be collected and carted to the Railway Stations in London, and on those going abroad, the cartage and wharf charges, which are incurred from an Inland AVarehouse. are avoided. 5. Concentration of the whole of the AVool for the day’s sale in one AVarehouse, or in warehouses contiguous to one another (instead of being distributed over several warehouses in the City), whereby the greatest facility for comparison is affordod to the buyers, and, as a rule, Letter prices are in consequence realised. 6. Reduction in storage rates. —Since the establishment of these warehouses, storage rates have been-reduced 25 per cent., and with increased support a still further reduction could be made. Trains from Fonchurch Street run every quarter of an hour, and the journey occupies 25 minutes, special Refreshment Rooms and Lavatories are provided. Wool Exchange. Coleman Street, London, E.C.
