Public Notices NEW ZEALAND GENERAL- » ■■■ - TpHE time is rapidly approaching when the -*- Electric Telegraph will be extended throughout New Zealand, affording vastly increased facilities for communication between the various cities and towns of the colony. The position which Campbelltown (Bluff Harbor) occupies as the first port of arrival and last of departure for the steamers carrying Her Majesty's English and Australian Mails, as well as its growing importance as a port of call for sailing vessels of large tonnage, and the fact that it is the southern terminus of the New Zealand Telegraph System, and of the Railways already initiated in Southland, wliich eventually will traverse the whole ofthe Middle Island, has induced us to establish at this point a GENERAL TELEGRAPHIC AGENCY. The objects we have in view are threefold : — Firstly. — Receiving and transacting all Mercantile Business in which the telegraphic wire may be called into requisition. Secondly. — Supplying the Press throughout New Zealand with the latest English and Australasian Intelligence, including the state of Markets, Shipping, and General News from all parts of the Colonies. Thirdly. — Transacting Telegraphic Business of a miscellaneous character for the public at large. The marked success wliich has attended like undertakings both in Europe and the Colonies, when conducted with energy and intelligence, and the long experience of the projectors in mercantUe business, and their thorough knowledge of the duties of a Press Correspondent, combined with a determination to devote their whole attention to the Agency, emboldens them to solicit public patronage. Arrangements are already in progress for the formation of a wide-spread system of Telegraphic Agencies throughout the whole of the Australian Colonies, in connection with the " NEW ZEALAND GENERAL TELEGRAPHIC AGENCY." The strictest secrecy, together with promptitude . and accuracy in all affairs entrusted to us, may be relied on. Business will be commenced immediately on the completion of the Electric Telegraph between Duneclin and Campbelltown (Bluff Harbor). EITZGERALD, REYNOLDS & CO.
