Owing to the great pressure of local matter upon our space, our further remarks upon the late County Council meeting are unavoidably held over to a future issue. To-day (Saturday) Mr Snelson will hold an extensive sale of clothing on account of Mr E. Wilson, of Wellington. Milph cows, good hacks, and flour will also be offered. The Chairman of the Manawatu County Council, by advertisement m another column, proclaims certain roads to be County road's. In a paragraph which appeared m our last issue referring to the issue of return tickets by the Railway authorities a; mistake was inadvertently made. We should have stated that return tickets were available from Saturday till Monday m each week at the ordinary return rates. The following is copy of a notice handed' to us by Mr Donnelly for publication : — Bank Notes. — Lost or stolen' from the' Teller of the National Bank of New Zealand, Wellington, one hundred new unissued onepound notes, Wellington Nos. A (with N underneath) 40, 501 to 40, 600. The abovedescribed notes, bound m paper covers, were; when lost or stolen, m course of preparation for issue. Bankers receiving any of the notes, which are either undated or dated 3rd Sept., 1873, are kindly requested to make inquiries, and to communicate by telegraph with the Manager, National Bank New Zealand, Wellington. We are very pleased to learn that the Palmerston North Reading Room has not become a defunct institution. The members of the Committee have been exerting themselves m its welfare, and have taken Bteps, the result of which will we trust not only enable them to pay off all outstanding liabilities, but leave a balance m hand to meet current expenses. The Directors of the Public Hall Company have kindly lent a room for the use of members of the Reading Room* as a temporary arrangement. Those who have purchased tickets entitling them to membership, and those who intend to enrol themselves as members are cordially invited by the Committee to attend a meeting to be held m the Reading Room, Public Hall, ou Wednesday evening next at 8 o'clock A narrow escape from an accident, which might have resulted m very serious consequences, occurred yesterday. One of the workmen engaged on the new Athenaeum building was standing on the bank at the boundary of the site on which the building is being erected, when the earth suddenly gave way and fell, and he had barely time to jump on to the solid ground before the stuff came down. Had' he fallen with it he would have been killed. — " Times." Be Beforehand with Disease. Trifling derangements beget serious diseases. When you feel " out of sorts," languid and despondent, you may be pretty sure that you lack vitality, and that the bodily functions are imperfectly performed, and you will do well to infuse fresh energy into the waning forces of your system. By so doing you will anticipate disease and avoid serious danger. From this end, use Udolpho Wolfe's Schiedat* Aromatic Schnapps. — A DVT.
