All who do bosiness with the Live Stock General Insurance Company of New Zealand will have their claims promptly and aatisfacorily settled. The a Wantages offered by the Companj ara most deserving of attention. Messrs A and T Inglls invite inspection of their spring and snmmer novelties, a shipment of which bas just been landed by the firm. It should be good news to asricultnriats that the price of the Maiden Island guano has been reduced. The valmble properties of the manure are universally acknowledged.

The old picturesque bridge of boats which spanned the Rhine between Kehl and Btrasburg is doomed. The word " France,' which was on one of the centie pla ks and ?ut the river in two, matked the frontier. Tbis was the only means of going from Stmsburg to Kehl and vice versa for those who loved to go on foot across the poetic Rhine and have a glance at the blue Alsatian Mountains . July 22, 1870, just twecty-five years ago, the Badenesp, who from tha 15th had been massed on the right bank and half the bridge which belonged to them, swept in by the railroad bridge from Straßbarg to Baden. Tbe Strasbnrgeee who up to this felt he was a Frenchman, will uot ace the foot bridge disappear without keen emotion.
