The fact that Carter and Co., of George street, are the only Drapers in Dunedin doing a strictly Cash Trade who import their own Goods direct from Home Markets, is the one cause of their being able to sell cheaper than any other firm. Carter and Co. have just opened, ex S.S. Coptic and Kaikoura, 16 cases Men's and Boys' Clothing, and in consequence of the desperate scarcity of Ready Money, they have decided to offer the whole lot, for a few weeks, at Landed Co9t. Therefore, call, inspect, and judge for your self. Carter's, 60, 62, George Street, Dunedin. " The irony of Fate " is likely to be seen in the new names of the streets of Dublin. For instance : Castle Street, called from the Castle of Dublin, the head quarters of English rule, was once the scene of an event notable in Irish history. One of the leaders of the movement of 1641 was Conor Maguire, Lord Enniakillen. He was arrested by the English in Castle Street in the house of a surgeon named Neville. After the lapse of neaily two centuries and a halt this wicked arrest works to the surface. It is now proposed by the Duilin Freeman that Castle Street be re-christened with the name of the patriot of 1641. The Freeman, says :-— •« Surely, if ' the grave or the prison ' is ' far dearer ' when illamined by a ' patriot's name, 1 the name of this street, long sacred to ' the Castle,' would have a pleasanter sound in the ears of Irishmen when associated with the memory of Conor Maguire I"— Pilot. On Saturday afternoon a largely-attended meeting of the Lambeth Teachers' Association was held to consider Mr. Fitch's memorandum in Dr. Crichton Browne's report on over-pressure. A. large number of the members of the Executive of the National Union of Elementary Teachers were also present, and Messrs. Brooks, Murphy, and Whiteley, members of the Loado.n School Board. Resolutions were unanimously adopted asserting that the present Code demanded much more work from teachers and scholars than former Codes ; : that the practice of keeping children after school hours for the purpose of instruction is carried on to a great extent in the Lambeth district ; that Her Majesty's Inspectors' reports in the last Blue-book and the evidence of teachers show that the practice is general throughout the country ; that instances are known "where children placed on exemption list have been examined for the standard ; and that with reference to those and other points Mr. Fitch's memorandum is misleading to the general public, and in some parts is not Isupported by facts.—' Times.
