MR. CLOUSTON'S PETITION.
The Select Committee reported as follows: — " Your Committee learn with satisfaction that the Provincial Government have been and still are eager to confer on Mr Clouston as early as possible some situation affording suitable emolument. Your Committee sincerely hopes tbat in justice to an officer of Mr Clouston's merits, suddenly deprived of his livelihood, the efforts of the Government may be successful. Should, however, the hopes of the Committee and of the Government in this respect fail to be realised within a reasonable time (say six months), your Committee recommends that further compensation should be granted him, making, with that already awarded, a sum equal to one year's salary, viz., £250 in all. Your Committee are further of opinion that it is desirable to establish a rule generally applicable to the.cases of those who have entered the public service of the province without a distinct understanding as to the terms on which they are removable from office, and the rule which your Committee would recommend is as follows: — That when a public servant is removed from office without fault imputed, he should receive a sum of money as compensation equal to one month's salary for every year (less two) that he has been in the Government employ, provided that no compensation thus receivable should exceed one year's salary. Holloway's Ointment and Pills — Glandular swelling* in the throat, neuralgia, tic dolorenx, rheuam'ism, gout, lumbago, and other diseases affecting the glands, muscles, and nerves, are permanently eradicated by this heeling, anti-lebrile, and soothing nn(tu- nt ; ie is also a per'ect remedy f.r all skin di-easts, and superficial or deep-seated sores ; whioh soon lose their angry md painful character under its coolirg beneficent action. The Pi Is have never been administered either by lio'pi.ul or private practitioner in dyspepsia or liver complaint without producing the desired result. 1502
