' WORMS IN HORSE3.—The symptoms of woims in horses, it may be thought, are sufficiently obvious even to the most cursory observer to arrest his attention to the devastation created by these troublesome tenants ; yet numbers witness their frightful symptoms quite uncoa. cened, and the effect is. that numerous horses are j eirly destroyed, which might have been prevented br administering in the spring and autumn, Gibton's worm and condition powders, which is acknowledged to be the most prudent medicine that can be given for d* stroying all species of worms that afflict the ho-so, having stood the test of ncarlv twenty years' experience with the utmost success.

FURTHER and important evidence ef the value of Hood and Co.'s sheep-dipping compositions. ExtraGt from a letter received fromL. Ryan, Esq., Bunyip, Wimmera;--" I dipped tome flocks in tobacco and sulphur, and some in your preparation. The only differenca observable now is, that the wool of those dipped in yours is clean and fit for market, whereas with those dipped in tobacco it is much stained. The scab was cured in each case, both liy the tobacco and by tha use i yours Your preparation is only about onethiid the price of tebacco. and much easier of application. I am so much impressed with the value of your composition that I shall in future use it every year, even on clean flocks; to promote the growth of the wool, and to destroy tick,&c. " NO MORE BALDNESS. The undersigned beg to notify that they have now received a large supply of the new and successful remedy for baldness. It has now been in use in Sydney about three months, and in Victoria barely half that period ; and alseady there are numerous authenticated cases in New. South Wales, and some hero, where tho hair is positively growing luxuriantly where none had been for several years. It is easy of application and very little dearer than ordinary pomatum. We would strongly urge all who require itsaid tb'losejrio time, as the supply is limited. Beware of imitations, as none is genuine unless bearing the signature of Ed. Jty. O'Neill on the wrapper of each bottle. Hood and Co., 160 Elizabeth-street, Wholesale Agents for Victoria and Tasmania. " Tho Wheeler and Wilson Sewing Machine is the one best calculated for housohold use."— From Timbs' Year-Book of Facts for 1865. WHEELER and WILSON'S PATENT LOCK-STITCH SEWING- MACHINES, for families and manufacturers, are vastly superior to all others. As evidence of the fact, they were awarded the prizo gold medal at the Great Exhibition, 1862 and at the Paris Exhibition 1861, also at tho Victorian Exhibition 1863 and 1864. These machines make the tight lock-stitch — the only one which cannot be ravelled — with the rotating hook a great improvement on the shuttle, as it is far more durable, and not near so liable to got out of order. Wheeler and Wilson's machines -work equally ■well upon silk, cotton, woollen, and linen goods, braiding, binding, cording, tucking, hemming, filling, . gathering, seaming, quilting, performing evory species of sewing with, a speed of fr0m .1209 to 1500 stitches per minute, makes a regular, strong, and beautiful stitch, exactly the ' same on both sides of tho fabric sewed, is simple in construction, easy of management, elogant in appearance. A t the present REDUCED PRICES there is no excuse for having shuttle machines. Reference given to dressmakars, tailors, and Manufactures of clothing, who have had tho machines in constant use for years: We would call particular attention to the address 166 Bourke, Street East, up stairs j several inferior niaehines having'Deen sold under the impression of being curs.
