Bespecting Mr. Young, who has been selected by the Board of Education to take charge of the Terrace School, the Wancjanui Herald says that in leaving Kaitoke, " Mr. Young carries with him the good wishes of a large number of friends not only around Kaitoke, but in Wanganui, and his removal is a cause of much regret to the parents of the children attending the schools, although rejoicing at his well deserved promotion. His abilities as a teacher will have a wider scope in Wellington, and we wish him success in his new appointment." Mr. Arthur Lyster, agent in advance for I Mr. Charles Bright, the well-known Melbourne lecturer, was a passenger by the Arawata yesterday. The Melbourne Argus of the 31st ultimo, has the following in reference to this matter : —" Mr. Charles Bright, at the Operahouse on Sunday evening next, is to deliver his lecture entitled " A Kace of Barbarians," which was given by him with much success some three or four years ago. This is to be Mr. Bright's last lecture in Melbourne prior to his visiting New Zealand, where he has entered into an engagement to give a course of lectures on "Yankee Humor," and other subjects. Mi'. Arthur Lyster, who has made this arrangement for Mr. Bright, is to leave next week, and Mr. Bright will follow about a fortnight later. At the completion of the New Zealand trip Mr. Bright is to undertake a lecturing tour in New South Wales." Mr. Patrick Leslie, in moving the nomination of Mr. Whitaker for the Waikato, said:— " The present Government had a great claim on the support of Waikato in the House. No reasonable request made by the district had ever been refused. Let the settlers look back to a period just six years ago; when every adult male was under arms, when crops were rotting on the ground, cattle and sheep straying untended, ruin staring the district in the face. What averted that ruin ? What but the policy of that great and good man the Defence Minister ? But for that policy Waikato would not now be the flourishing district it is. All was due to Sir Donald McLean, and may the day be far distant," continued Mr. Leslie, "when Waikato shall forget the man who made her what she is. He had seen a telegram in which local men were asked to stand in the ' Grey' interest, but if Sir George Grey came himself to Waikato, and went round the district on his knees, he did not believe he would get a vote. No Waikato settler was such a lunatic as to give him one. Sir George Grey would sacrifice Waikato tomorrow for one howl of adulation from the mob which flatters him in Auckland, and which he panders to in so dirty a manner." The following telegram, received by Mr. Bunciman, was then read by the speaker :—" Auckland, Jan. 1, 1876. Captain Bunciman, — Will you contest Waikato in interest of Sir Grey's party. I wish to communicate your reply to Sir George Grey.—(Signed) J. M. Shera."

Floriline!—Fob the Teeth and Breath. —A few drops of the liquid "Floriline," sprinkled on a net tooth-brush, produce a pleasant lather, which thoroughly cleanses the teeth from all parasites or impurities, hardens the gums, prevents tartar, stops decay, gives to the teeth a peculiarly pearly whiteness, and a delightful fragrance to the breath. It removes all unpleasant odour arising from decayed teeth or tobacco smoke. "The Fragrant Floriline," being composed in part of Honey and sweet herbs, is delicious to the taste, and the greatest toilet discovery of the age. Sold everywhere at 2s. 6d. Prepared by Henry C.
