The NEW SOUTH WALES SHALE AND OIL COMPANY are now in a position to turn out about 50,000 GALLONS of their KEBOSENE OIL per month, which, with very small outlay, could be doubled, and it is simply a question of time when they will manufacture enough to supply the whole of the Austrian Colonie3. Superior in quality to any imported oil, and much lower in price, the "COMET" OIL is justly regarded as THE BEaT, THE SAFEST, and CHEAPEST ILLUMINATOR. As a proof of tho superiority of the Comet Oil over all other brands, the following letters are selected from a number of others lately received from the trade and consumers :— " Australasiau Steam Navigation Company. 'Sydney, June 13,1874. " Dear Sir,—For the last four or five years we have used none other than Kerosene Oil manufactured from the Hartley Shale, We have noticed that it has steadily improved in quality; and for a period of two years, that is, since your company came into existence and manufactured your Comet Oil, it is all that can be desired. Throughout a large fleet of steamers, with a consumption.of about 600 gallons per month, in a variety of lamps and lanterns, subject to great changes in temperature' and sudden draughts in saloons, engine-rooms, and in mast-head and side lights, this oil is put to a severe test, and we find it equal, if not superior to any- other kerosene oil procurable in these colonies. "I am, dear sir, yours faithfully,, (Signed) . "Bobt. P, Pnitfa," "Fred, Phillips, Secretary."

" Hunter River Steam Navigation Company "Sydney, 2nd April, 1874. "The Secretary New South Wales Shale and Oil Company (Limited). "Dear Sir,—l have much pleasure in certifying that, since the improvements effected nearly two years ago in refining yaur oil it has heen used by this Company continuously for illuminating purposes in the saloons and engine-rooms of our steamships, and for mast-head and side lights -for all which purposes we have fdund it. to be equal to the best American kerosene oil; and I have no doubt, when the excellent quality of your oil becomes known in the other colonies and in foreign places, it will supersede any other kerosene oil. " Yours sincerely, "F. J. I'hojus, Manager." The Company's SUALE has found its way for GAS MAKING PURPOSES into all part 3 of the world, including New York and San Francisco.
