The total number of sheep in the Colony on April 30th, was 20,186,784. The principal increase (390,811) was in the Canterbury and Kaikoura districts.

SANDER & SONS’ EUCALYPTI EX-TRACT-—Under the distinguished patronage of His Majesty the King of Italy, as per communication made by the Minister forfForeign Affairs, through the Consul-General or Italy at Melbourne, March 14, 1878. 'Awarded diploma at the Amsterdam Exhibition, 1883Aoknowledged by Mdical Clinics and Universities all over the Globe.

There are imitations of Eucalypti Extract in the market,'products of simple distillation, forming crude, resinous oils. In order chat these crude oils may not be taken for our pursolatilo Eucalypti Extract, which is recognise by the Medical Division of the Prussian Goernrnent to be of perfectly pure origin, as per nformation forwarded to us through the Consul at Melbourne, March 2, 1878, we vtate:—

It is proved by tests made by the Medical Clinics of the Universities of Bonn and Griefswald (Prussia), and reported to by Dr Schultz Professor of Pharmacology at Bonn, and Professor Dr Mossier, Director of the Medical Clines at Griefswald, that only products that are saturated with oxygen and freed of acids resinous and other substances adherent to primary distillation, will develop the sanative qualities proper to the plant. All crude oils or so-called Eucalypti Extracts, are to be classed according to the named authorin' js, among the turpentines, which are abandoned long since as an internal medicament. T 1 esc crude oil, or so-called Eucalypti Extract;:, arc discernible:

\. By. their deficiency in pungent oclo (which our product, the only genuine Eim lypti Extract, develops most freely througn ts surplus oxygen.)

2. By their alcoholic, thin, and mobile appearance, being’ reduced to specific density through the presence of acids. 3. By their taste, the result of contract ing tendency of resins and tanats. If these crude oils, or so-called Eucalypti Extracts, are applied by mistake in cases of croup, bronchitis, dipthcria, internal inflammation, dysontry, etc., the consequences are most appalling.
