The St. Leon's Circus and Menagerie has arrived from Greymouth, and will open in the Recreation Ground, for this night only, at 8 o'clock. Since its appearance here in January last, the company of performers has been augmented by a female juggler and two more clowns ; and a lion has been added to the. menagerie. Visitors, both young and old, may therefore rely on witnessing most interesting sights and performances to-night. The poll for the election of Borough Auditors took place yesterday, between the hours of 9 a.m. and G p.m., and shortly afterwards the Returning Officer, (Mr Rndkin) declared the result to be as follows : Votes. Hamill, Benjamin 02 Weisner, William 40 Spyer, Lawrence J. ... 37 Toms, Reuben 11 He therefore declared Messrs Hamill and Weisner duly elected as Borough Auditors for the ensuing year. It may be mentioned that Mr Toms, having a borough contract in hand, would have been ineligible, and, this being known by many, may account for the small number of votes given him. A meeting to arrange for a Bazaar to clear off the debt on Holy Trinity Church was held in the Parsonage last evening when it was decided to hold the Bazaar during the closing week of December of the present year.

We believe that if everyone would use American Co.'s Hop Bitters freely there would be much less sickness and misery in the world, and people are fast finding this out, whole families keeping well at a trifling cost by its use. We advise all to try it. Read A Wise DeacOxY.—"Deacon Wilder, I want you to tell rae how you kept yourself and family so well the past season, when all the rest of us have been sick so much, and have had the doctors running to us so often." Brother Taylor, the answer is very easy. I used Hop Bitters in time, and kept my family well, and saved large doctor's bills. Four shillings' worth of it kept us all well and able to work all the time, and I will warrant it has cost you and most of your neighbours £lO to £IOO apiece to keep sick all the time. I fancy you will take my medicine hereafter." See
