J. Cosgrave and Co. eg to inform the public that there is an entire revolution in dress, also in the prices of goods. It is necessary it should be so, as Auckland is not in the flourishing position it xoas tivelve months ago ; it is like all goldfield cities, suffering under a recover, the working classes are more numerous and money less plentiful. Therefore, the prices of drapery and clothing must come doion to suit the times. The population must have clothing suitable for an almost tropical summer. J. Cosgrave and Co. have met the crisis, they have broken down the monopoly of large profits that have reigned here for years pas*,. They are determined the people shall be clad and that cheaply ; a great chance u-as offered lately, the stock of a large importer^ of drapery tuas in the market, a discount off English cost was given, and J. Cosgrave and Co. became the purchasers, hence our extensive and valuable sale of drapery takes place This Day. — \_A dvt. ] __■ WANTED TO LET—A SIX-STALLED STABLE, Prince of Wales Hotel, Ilobson-strset.

I have heard the letter was opened, that some of the sheets were taken out, aud something wrote in that has set him against me. This gentleman said I was sent for, and that I would not come. I most solemnly declare, in the presence of my God, that I never received one letter or message in my life from him. I believe the creatures are going to send my presents back, without offering them to me, and some they are going to keep themselves. I want a place where my bed will not be wetted or damped, and no drug put in what I eat or drink. They say they do not w'sh their race disgraced. Then, I suppose, upholding villainy, rascality, and persecution, is no disgrace.
