THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT. TO EDITOR OF NEW ZEALAND TIMES. SIR, —In Sir Julius Vogel’s Financial Statement, under heading “ Local Industries and Exhibition,” he says, speaking on this point, the efforts we make to promote the resources of the colony are likely to bear better fruit than those devoted to testing political experiments, and it is of great importance full play be given to the industries of the colony. Now, Sir, I wish to bring under the notice of your numerous readers an industry in its infancy, and which, when the demand is created (the supply being inexhaustible), bids fair to eclipse all its rivals, French, English, and American, ns it possesses qualities none of the above can lay claim to. I refer to the Nelson Ochre Works, which arc now manufacturing a native terracotta ochre, a combination of hematite and ochre, a very pretty color, and in combination with white lead makes an excellent paint for all purposes ; and being appointed agent for this province, I am prepared to give information and to supply the above to any requiring the same in quantities to suit, from one single pound, at 4d, to ten or twenty tons, as per arrangement. Hoping to see this genuine industry well supported by all, from cottage to mansion, not omitting railway bridges, &c., which will improve the appearance of the colony at large and benefit the exchequer. Testimonials already received from those who have tried it. I enclose copy of report by John Blackett, Esq.—l am Sir, yours &0., R. MARTIN, Te Aro Papethanging Warehouse, Manners-street.
