“General” Booth, in his annual report, demands £30,000 for next year’s work, and overflows with hectoring language about the purity of his motives ; but it would be a more conclusive answer to the criticism on his proceedings if he were to publish a really full and businesslike account of his financial operations. The “General” advertised lately for a clerk who, it is stipulated, “must write shorthand and be fully saved.” Notice.—Auction of drapery.—Vance Klaus Hassalaer wishes to inform the public of Kumara and surrounding districts that he has brought with him a large stock of drapery, which must be sold at a great discount.
