Government Notices. NEW ZEALAND GOVERNMENT LIFE INSURANCE AND ANNUITIES. THE Government having been empowered by special Acts of the Legislature to enter into contracts for Insurances on Lives, and for the grants of Annuities and Endowments, are now prepared to execute any of the usual contracts dependent upon the contingencies of human life. The following advantages are presented as deserving of Public attention, and especially of the Working Classes : 1, The tables of Premiums in all the branches are considerably less than in any other office in New Zealand. 2. All transactions, and Powers of Attorney and other documents, are free of Stamp Duty and all taxation. 3, No charge is made beyond the purchase money or premium, paid quarterly, half-yearly, or annually. 4. Fourteen or twenty-one days of grace, according to the intervals of payment, are allowed beyond the due dates; and should the assured die during these per'.ocls, the policy -will still be valid. 5. Surrender values are granted on the whole or any part of a contract which has endured for five years. 6. Residence is permitted in any part of the Australasian Colonies or Europe, and premiums may always he paid on the due dates at the nearest Money Order Office. 7. Insurances effected for the benefit of and settled on Wife or Children are free, to the extent of L 2,000, from the claims of Creditors. 8. The Consolidated Revenue of the Colony is liable for all claims, in the event of the monies received (which are safely invested at compound interest) at any time being insufficient to meet demands, thus affording the best security to the Assured. The fullest information can be obtained on application to any Money Order Office or Government Schoolmaster, or to CECIL Y.

MR SLESINGER, Veterinary Surgeon, Hope street, Dunedin, announces to his Friends and the Public, his intention, from this date, of reducing his charges for ADVICE and MEDICINE to ONE-HALF of the former rate, so as to enable owners of the lowest-priced Animals to have them properly attended to. MrS. takes this opportunity of thanking the public for their liberal support during the past eight years, and trusts by very moderate charges to secure a still further increase of their patronage.

Its action is expectorant, alterative, sudori fic, sedative, diaphoretic, and diuretic, which renders it one of the most valuable remedies known for curing diseases of the lungs. It excites expectoration, and causes the lungs to throw off the phlegm or mucus ; changes the secretions, and purifies the blood ; heals the irritated parts ; gives strength to the digestive organs ; brings the liver to its proper action; and imparts strength to the whole system. Such is the immediate and satisfactory effect, that it is warranted to break up the most distressing cough in a few hour’s time, if not of too long standing. It is warranted to give entire satisfaction, even in the most confirmed cases of consumption. It is warranted not to produce costiveness (which is the case with most remedies), or affect the head, as it contains no o ium in any form. It is waranted to be perfectly harmless to the most delicate child, although it is an active and powerful remedy for restoring the system. There is no real necessity for so many deaths by consumption, when Allen’s Lung Balsam will prevent it if only taken in time. PERRY, DAVIS, and Son, Providence, E. 1., General Agents.
