Sir—You stated to me when yoti took iny order for Oilskin Coats for myself and Mr Gillbanks, that the articles would be much superior to anything of the kind I had ever seen before. I desire to inform you that I have used oil-skins tor the last sixteen years, but I never found any to answer, so well as yours. They are thoroughly waterproof, and are comfortable to walk in. It is a matter of surprise to me that you have not advertised such admirable articles, as I feel convinced that they need only to be known to-be extensively worn. Reference to Mr Passmore, 'farmer, Teremakau,. or ; to. Mr Gillbank, will prove that I have: not overstated the case;—l am, > yours truly, John Wills. . OTIGE TO GROUND SLUICERS . ' : . In particular, And .to the public at large. : '■''.'" I should have advertised before, but the late fire disabled me from supplying any great demand at the time when I was made aware that iny OILSKINS were in reality superior to any ever seen or known before. But lamin a position to supply OIL-SKIN SUITS, HYDRAULIC HOSE, TENTS, MATTRASSES, AND SO U'- WESTERS, AH of my own make. I shall be glad if my customers who feel satisfied will give me a written acknowledgment of their belief in the superiority of my improved article. TAR OIL, and SEWING MACHINES, Always on hand. C. F.

The public are informed that this will probably be the final Consultation carried through in the colony, as very strong repressive measures are likely to be passed by Parliament this session; and, if so, no consultation on the Melbourne Cup could either be carried oat or filled up.
