Telegraphic Agency. NEW ZEALAND GENERAL TELEGRAPHIC AGENCY. 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 caU for sailing Vessels of large tonnage, and the fact that it is the southern terminus of the New- Zealand Telegraph Systeni, arid of the Railways already initiated in Southland, which eventually will traverse the whole of the Middle Island, has induced us to establish at this point a GENERAL TELEGRAPH AGENCY. The objects we have in view 'are threefold : — Firstly.— Receiving and transacting all Mercantile Business in which the telegraphic « wire may be caUed 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 att parts of the Colonies. Thirdly- — Transacting -Telegraphic Business of a miscellaneous character for the public at large. The marked success which has attended like andertakings, both in Europe and the • Colonies when conducted with energy .and intelligence, and the long experience of the projectors in mercantile 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 soUcit publio patronage. A wide-spread system of Telegraphic Agencies has been formed throughout the whole of the Australian Colonies, in connection with the « NEW ZEALAND GENERAL TELEGRAPHIC AGENCY." The: strictest secrecy, together with promptitude r and accuracy in all affairs entrusted to us, may be reUedon. 3 Head Offices:— CAMPBELLTOWN, Southland, N.Z, The foUowing are the principal Agencies :— Melbourne, Adelaide^ Sydney, Brisbane, Launceston, GaUe, Suez Alexandria, Malta, Marseilles Paris, and London.'
