NUTT, Proprietor. i A VALUABLE DISCOVERY HAS just been made, and one likely to cause quite a revolution in the future welfare of the people of , Akaron, and add materially to their comfort, and in some measure make amends for the failure of the Akaroa Railway Bill. We live as it were isolated from the rest of the world, and are debarred from enjoying many of the pleasures and privileges which are common to them ; therefore any discovery calculated to improve the minds of the peeple, or add in any way to the instruction or amusement of the young, no ' matter by whom the discovery is made, 1 it is the duty of that individual to make > it known without a moment's delay. Be it therefore known to the inhabi- > tants of Akaroa and the surrounding ; districts, that the undersigned has just I discovered that he is enabled to offer II them a 141b Tin of Red or White Lead for the remarkably small sum of os 6d. Also, that it is of the utmost im- ■ portance that his large and miscellalj neous stock of useful and ornamental goods should be cleared out as quick as ; possible ; for it is a well-known fact that I when some classes of goods are kept too > long on the shelves, they (like ourselves) get faded, and consequently deteriorated in value. JUST ARRIVED, a really nice assortment of Spectacles. \ J.S.—A great reduction in the .price of Wedding Rings. r H. BILLENS, Economy House.
