I 'THE WELLINGTON : QOLD MINE : - WE subjoin Skare List and Dividend for the XXZX BEEE COMPANY. We challenge anyone uu produce its '.like. 'A. Drapery Firm or a Grocery Shot* with sucli a Balance-sheet would be regarded as a public exploiter. How shall waj J regard STAPLES & CO. ? A rawnshop-keeper would turn green with envy of such finance. Let the Elector who examines the figures we subjoin reflect thafc these are the Profits yielded by the self-indulgence of a careless multitude andj by the excesses of some thousands of his neighbours. Let him reflect that a great deal of it is filched from Women and? Children, and that it is directly chargeable with a large proportion of the vice and misery and crime of our city. Then lew him say whether he is prepared to vote for the WELLINGTON BEEB COBNEE, whether he is prepared to continue ts'—. line with gold the pockets of these shareholders who draw a cool 20 per cent, per annum and trimmings from Charles Lamb 0-lled '* Wet Pamnation."
