■ ' -v IN BANKRUPTCY. IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF HAWKE'S BAY, COLONY OF NEW ZEALAND, HOLDEN AT GISBORNE. In the* matter of "The Debtors "and Creditors Act, 1876," ajid "The Debtors and Creditors Act Amendment Act, 1878," and of the Bankruptcy of ALEXANDER GILLIES, of Ormond, battle Dealer, a Debtor. _ ; fTIHIS is to notify; that: . ALEXJL ANDER GILLIES, *f Ormotlcl, Cattle Dealer, has . This Day filed a statement that he is unable to meet his engagements with his Creditors, j The FIRST MEETING of Creditors to be held at the COURT-HOUSE, Gisborne, on WEDNESDAY, th« 13th Day of August, 1879, at two o'clock in the afternoon.

AND be it also known to all who wish to Jcuow more about. Mr Ross, that whatever Exhibition he may go to, he will go clothed and in his proper senses ; and that he never yet received an introduction to any of the various Geological departments of the Colony, for making an exhibition .of himself. The Mr Ross does hot carry his education like the polish on his boots, all on the outside-; nor does it consist of verbal garbage picked up in the gutters of Wellington. This Mr Ross has never cooked the charity of th« .people to buy himself a ; trumpet, and had he done so, hu never ■ would have been the man to use the same trumpet as the means to bespatter his benefactors with Ms malevolence and invective. Mr Ross's general knowledge extends further than from Wellington to Mount Eden. J: It has enabled him to become a good oarpenter, but never made him a maker or vendor of gingerbeer. His "Scotch Navigation" has taught him never to throw stones while living in a glass house, and his. knowledge of law is just sufficient to protect him from tin* crupulous vendors of musical instrU* nients. This man of Ross never descants politics by the hour to a pewter pot audience,- or has he ever become verbose through the influence of such company. Mr Ross ia quite sure that the Agricultural Society, has lost a chance. If unable to procure a good specimen of the male Bovine tribe, they could at least have sent a sample of that animal, known by its elongated auricular appendages, whose bray of late has. turned into a bark. {To be continued.) NOTICE. rpHE NOTICE inserted by me WITH REGARD to. M^ BRASSEY collecting Debts due iB me, was from the fact that that gentleman had WITH* DRAWN from that portion of my business. I inserted the notice without consulting him, under the impression that having given a public notice to collect, people indebted to me might deal direct with me. I should be sorry that the notice should be construed in any way detrimental to Mr Brassey. WM. TEAT, WAIKOHU HIGHWAY DISTRICT.
