NEW ZEALAND INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION, CHRISTCHURCH. Those that with to be represented at the International Exhibition, to be held in Christchurch in March next, should inform us of their intentions. We have been connected with all the International Exhibitions held in the colonies. At the late Adelaide Exhibition, we represented GO exhibitors, for which we received 10 gold medals, 49 first, and one second awards, three of which were New Zealand firms, (D, Strang, and J. T. Martin, Invercargill ; and T, Bevan, Wellington), Our plan is to represent the exhibitors, transact their business, fix the exhibit in its space, attend to the judging of exhibits, and anything necessary while the Exhibition remains open. At the close repack and send their goods back, or sell them, or duplicates thereof if required. It is very inconvenient for exhibitors to come up to the Exhibition and fix their exhibits, which amount to an expense, besides the loss of time which they must necessarily expend on them. Then again the exhibitors have a benefit, they have no trouble of getting space, They let us know how much is required, we get it for them as we have a large amount granted to us. We fix &c , the exhibits on a better space than if they applied themselves. Our terms are moderate. We specially caution the pubiic against giving their exhibits to so called exhibtion agents, who have been the rounds of all the Exhibitions, and run exhibitors into debt and other- difficulties. —Albert Manders and Co,, British and Colonial Manufacturers’ Agent, Head Office—9l Litt’c Collins street, Melbourne ; and at 67 King William street, Adelaide; Perth, W.A. — Town Hall ; Termanent Branch in Christchurch, after Ist of March ; London—St. Paul’s Buildings.— [Advt.]

The CONSUMPTION of Beer was so very large as to CLAUSE every Hogshead to run dry, and J every CASK to be disposed of, and the wellknown CHARACTER of this Firm’s Wines, Spirits, and Groceries Cl REAPED such a demand in these lines J as to them to immediately lay in a COMPLETE new stock to be in readiness for the COMING New Year’s festivities.
