M-LBOUBsn., sth Oct., 1866. TSTE have pleasure in directing your attention VV to the notice at foot, from which you will peiceive that with a view of inducing the Settlers to test this market, an important alteration has been made in the scale of charges on Wools not sold. It is anticipated that there will be great competition at the Melbourne Sales this year, buyers having already large orders in hand, to which the next English Mail will no doubt bring considerable additions ; from this we feel confident that you will have no reason to regret realising at Colonial rates, whilst, should a satisfactory price fail to be obtained, the expenses incurred will be very trifling. For Shipment we can offer many inducements, and shall be glad to treat liberally with you, in the event of your deciding to try the Home Market. The advantages we can offer are important, and can be ascertained on application ; meantime, hoping to be favored with a share of your support, and assuring you of our most careful endeavors to merit it. — We remain, dear Sir, your obedient servants, R. GOLDSBROUGH & CO., Wool Brokers, Stock and Station Agents.
