Telegraphic Agency. NEW ZEALAND GENERAL TELEGRAPHIC AGENCY. The position which CampbeUtown (Bluff Harbor) occupies as the first port of arrival and last of departure for the steamers carrying Her Majesty's EngUsh and AustraUan Mails, as weU as- its growing importance as a port of caU for sailing veesehv of large tonnage, and the fact that it is the southern terminus of tho -New Zealand Telegraph System, and of the Railways already initiated in Southland, which eventuaUy wiU traverse the whole of the Middle Island, has induced us to estabUsh at this point a GENERAL TELEGRAPH AGENCY. The objects we have in view are threefold : — Firstly. — Receiving aiid transacting aU Mercantile Business in which the telegraphic wire may be caUed into requisition. Secondly. — Supplying the Press throughout New Zealand with the latest EngUsh and Australasian Intelligence, including the state of Markets, Shipping, and General News from aU parts of the Colonies. Thirdly-— Transacting Telegraphic Business of a misceUaneous character for the pubhc 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 ofthe duties of a Press Correspondent, combined with a determination to devote their whole attention to the Agency, emboldens them to sohcit pubho patronage. A wide-spread system of Telegraphic Agencies has been formed throughout the whole of the Australian Colonies, ■in connection with the "> T EW ZEALAND GENERAL TELEGRAPHIC AGENCY." The strictest secrecy, together with promptitude and accuracy in aU affairs entrusted to us, may be reUed on.
