F. E. W \TERS, Spirited Hotel-keeper, Greymouth, New Zealand. Little did I think when penning the advertisements which I addressed to the Gentle Public some months since, that I was speaking to millions cf people, instead of thousands ; but such was the case. I then alluded to the power which the Press possessed to advance the interests of individuals, — and to prove my, argument, cited instances of firms that had amassed fortunes through their liberality in advertising -aud as a more direct proof of the correctness of my remarks, I have lately received a copy of a London publication, named the Printers' Regixter, which was addressed to me (through the editor having read my lucubrations) as the "Spirited Hotel-keeper of .Greymouth" I assure you I am not a little vain when I reflect that my advertiseTierits have been noticed by the London Press, but how much more will my vanity be tickled if I can (still through the instrumentality of the Press) induce you, citizens of Greymouth and the mobile public, to notice me, ay ! notice me in a tangible manner, namely, by giving me yonr custom. I am always eager to deserve it ; my stock is not a large one, but it has been carefully selected and well bought, hence my ability to compete with rival houses —and as for the hoteldepartment, stranger pationswill imagine from. the promptitude and style with which their wants are attended to that they ars in the Paldus Royal cliez las Trois Frcres Proveneeaux, instead of being with ■ i ■ ■ Your obedient servant, .
