Telegraphic Agenjy. NEW ZEALAND GENERAL TELEGRAPHIC AGENCY, The position which (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 weU 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, which eventually wiU 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 aU 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 aU 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 inteUigence, and the long experience of the projectors in mercantile business, and their thorough knowledge of the duties of a Press Correspondent, combined with a detennmation to devote their whole attention to the Agency, emboldens them to solicit public 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 and accuracy in aU affairs entrusted to ns, may be relied on. Head Offices:— CAMPBELLTOWN, Southland, N.Z, The foUowing are the principal Agencies: — Melbourne, Adelaide, Sydney, Brisbane, Launcesfcon, GaUe, Suez Alexandria, Malta, Marseflles Paris ; and London.

By Special Appointment. STAECH PUETETOB TO HER BOYAIi HIGHNESS THE PRINCESS OE WALES. THE best proofs of the greatest superiority ol this Starch are the numerous distinguishing marks of approval which have been accorded to it from aU quarters, amongst those may be mentioned the foUowing, viz. : — It is exclusively used in the Royal Laundry, AND Her Majesty's Laundress says it is the finest Starch she ever used. Honourable mention was awarded at the Great Exhibition in London, in 1851. A Prize Medal was awarded for it at the New York Exhibition in 1853 ; and A Prize Medal was also awarded for it at the Internatioual^ Exhibition in London, 1862. THE GLENFLELD STARCH Has continued to increase rapidly. The Manufacturers have every confidence in asserting, that if those ladies and laundresses who do not regularly use this Starch would disregard the advice of interested dealers, who are aUowed extra profits on inferior articles, and give it a fair trial, they would then feel satisfied with the very superior finish which it impart? to laces, linens, muslins, &c, the. great saving of trouble in its application, and the entire absence of disappointment with the results, and- would for the iuture, like THE QUEEN'S LAUNDRESS, USE NO OTHER.
