"Duke o? Edinburgh." — The old wooden structure that did duty as the Duke of Edinburgh Hotel, in Russell-street for so many years, has, we are pleased to observe, given place to a new brick building, erected at considerable cost, in order to meet the rapidly increasing requirements of this popular aud important part of the city The present proprietor, Mr D. Harris, has spared no reasonable expense in furnishing aud fitting the building with every modern comfort and convenience. The situation is extremely healthy, and commands •plendid views of the ocean and harbour, and is within easy reach of the business part of the city. Persona in pursuit of a respectable and comfortable residence will do well to go to the " Duke of Edinburgh" Hotel, Russell-street, Dunedin. — [Advt.] Historical ! Vide " Jurors Reports and Awards, New Zealand Exhibition." Jurors : J. A. Ewen, J. Butterwortb, T. C. Skinner. j "So far as the Colony is concerned, the dyeing of materials is almost entirely confined to the re-dyeing of Articles of Dress and Upholstery, a most useful art, for there arc many kinds of material that lose their colour before the texture ia half worn. G. Hibsch, of Dunedin (Dunedin Dxc Works, George street, opposite Royal George Hotel) exhibits a case of specimens of Dyed Wools, Silks, and Feathers, and dyed Sheepskins. The colors on the whole are very fair, and reflect considerable credit on t he Exhibitor, to whom the Jurors recommended an Honorary Certificate should be awarded." Honorary Certificate, 629 : Gustav Hirsch Dunedin, for specimens of Dveijg in Silk Feathers, &c.
