Telegrapmo Agency. ' NEW ZEALAND GENERAL TELEGRAPHIC AGENCY, The position whic^h Campbelltown (Bluff Harbor) occupies as tlie 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, which eventually will traverse the whole of the Middle Island, has induced Vs to, establish at this point a GENERAL TELEGRAPH AGENCY. The objects we have in view are threefold : — .Firs#y.— 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 which has attended like andertaMngs, both in Europe and the Colonies when conducted with energy and intelligence, and the, long experience of the projectors in mercantile business, and then* 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. 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 all affairs entrusted to us, may be relied on. ■■" Head Offices.— CAMPBELLTOWN, Southland, N.Z, The following are the principal Agencies: — Melbourne, Adelaide, Sydney, Brisbane, Launceston, Gallo, Suez Alexandria, Malta, Marseilles Paris, a and London.

STAECH PTJEYBIOB TO HEB BOYAL HIGHNESS THE PEINCESS OF WALES. 4 TTiHE best proofs of the greatest superiority ol X this, Starch are the numerous distinguishing marks of approval which have been accorded to it from all quarters, amongst those may be mentioned the following, viz. :— It is exclusively used in. the Royal Laundry, AND Her Majesty's Laundress says it i* 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 GLENFIELD STARCH Has continued to increase rapidly. The Manufacturers have every confidence in asserting, that if those ladies andyiaundresses who do not regularly use this Starch would disregard the advice of interested dealers, who are allowed extra profits on inferior articles, and give it a fair trial, they would then feel satisfied with the very superior finish which it imparts to laces, iinens, musUns, &c, the great saving of trouble hi its application, and the entire absence of disappointment with the results, and would for the future, like THE QUEEN'S LAUNDRESS, USE NO OTHER.
