Mr Mackey, Manager of the Branch of the Bank of New Zealand, at the Upper Hntt, is about to be arrested on a charge of embezzlement, his accounts, it appears, showing falsification, and a deficit of thirteen hundred pounds.

The Timarn Herald says : — “lt is with great regret that wo learn that several farmers in this district have turned their sheep on to their young crops, the latter, owing to the continued dry weather, being completely ruined. We sincerely hope that rain will come in time to save the larger portion of the crops.

yfell-flropned Men .—Among thom habitual errors of conduct which arc common in lioili careful and carc'rs-: persons. not one ia huh o ufu-u i;ir; •.vlth iff.-,.;: «?5 wustanl of !’ie advantages derivable from being wed dre^od; yet whoever Jives ob-ervandy in Mich a County as i’atca. is soon convinced that this mistake i-j friihiul of tni-ehiovous results. Ail of ns inslinotivoiy judge from iirst impressions; we proceed from the exterior io the interior; a well-dressed man gratifies our fondness for beauty and onv appreciation of neatness; and there is no one, however cynical or unobservant, but is pleased when a well-dressed person, even if a stranger, pusses by, and disposed io think favorably of him. This universal dispo hi ion cannot.safely be offended. To bo habitually a sloven is to constantly, though uncon«ciously, offend numerous persons, among whom (lie favour of some may be valuable: and therefore a shrewd man is not content to make himself neat now and then, but always will appear 'veil dressed. He keeps his clothes in good order, and is careful in the selection of a tailor.

In. bringing this maxim before public notice. E. A. Adams. Cardigan Home, is gratified by remernboring that the disposition of a great many of his customers to appear in public well dressed has been met by the combination in his goods of selection, material, good fit. and low price. He obtains his cloths in the most advantageous markets; he employs first-class cutters and workmen: ho avoids obsolete fashions; and lie is content itwith moderate profits in the place of the exorbitant percentage which only a few years ago was universal, and still is frequent in the tailoring trade. His gloves, hats, shirts, hosiery, tics, and scarfs, arc also such as will please the most fastidious. Whatever experience, capital, care, and good taste can effect on the tradesman’s side, is done by it. A. ADAMS, in order that all his customers may realise, the substantial advantages of being well-dressed; and that his efforts give satisfaction, is shown by file rapid and steady increase in the number of those who deal with him. ./ Attentive to (he changes of costume necessitated by varying seasons, and of style by the dictatcc of fashion, It. A. ADAMS has now on hand a large and carefully selected stock of cloths suitable for all seasons.—lt. A. ADAMS Cardigan. llou.se, Carlyle.—ADVT.
