Business Notices. QOM E T OIL" The NEW SOUTH WALES SHALE AND OIL COMPANY are now in a position to turn out about 5 n ,000 GALLONS of their KEROSENE OIL per month, which, with very small outlay, could be doubled, and it is simply a question uf time when they will manufacture enough to supply the whole of the Australian Colonies, Superior in quality to any imported oil, and much lower in price, the "CO.VIST" OIL is justly regarded as THE BfIST, THE SAFEST, and CHEAPEST ILLUMINATOR. As a proof of the superiority of the Comet Oil over all other brands, the following letters are selected from a number of others lately received from the trade and consumersi " Australasian Steam Navigation Company. Sydney, Juno 13,1874. " Dear Sir,—For the last four or live years wo have used none other than Kerosene Oil manufactured from the Hartley Shale. We have, noticed that it lias steadily improved in quality;' and for a period of two years, that is, since your company came into existence and manufactured your Comet Oil, it is all that can be desired, Throughout a large fleet of steamers, with a consumption of about 600 gallons per month, in a variety of lamps and lanterns, subject to great changes iu temperature and ■ sudden draughts in saloons, engine-rooms, and in mast-head and side lights, this oil is put to a severe test, and we fiud it equal, if not superior to any other kerosene oil procurable iu these colonies. " I am, dear sir, yours faithfully, (Signed) "Hobt. F. Phili'3." "Fred. Phillips, Secretary." " Hunter River Steam Navigation Company "Sydney, 2a 1 April, 1874. " The Secretary New South Wales Shale and Oil Company (Limited). "Dear Sir,—l have much pleasure in certifying that, since the improvements effected nearly two years ago iu refiaing your oil it lias been used by this Company continuously for illuminating purposes in the saloons and engine-rooms of our steamships, and for mast-head and side lights -for all which purposes we have found it to be equal to the best American kerosene oil; and [ liave no doubt, when the excellent quality of your oil becomes known in the other colonies and in foreign places, it will supersede any other kerosene oil. " Yours sincerely, "F.J. Thomas, Manager," The Company's SHALE has found its way for GAS MAKING PURPOSES into all parts of the world, including New York and San Francisco. The supply is unlimited; and its richness, both for gas production and illuminating power, is unequalled.

[ L/ A Chemical Preparation of Phosphorus, , with the Vegetable Alkaloids Quinia, Cypriden, Xanthoxylii, <ic. I Discovered, introduced, and extensively pre* scribed by Charles Leslie Bright, M.D., Resident Surgeon of St, Mary's Hospital, London. This Phosphatic combination is pronounced by the most eminent members of the Medical Profession to be unequalled for its power in replenishing the vitality of the body, by its supplying all the essential constituents of the • blood and nerve substance, and for developing all the powers and functions of the system to the highest degree. It is agreeable to the palate, and innocent in its action, while retaining all its extraordinary properties, and, as a specific, surpassing all the known therapeutic agents of the day for the Bpeedy and permanent cure of— Nervous prostration Shortness of breath Liver complaints Trembling of the hands Palpitation of the heart and limbs Dizziness Impaired nutrition Noises in the head and Mental and physical deears '• • pression Loss of energy and ap- Consumption (in its inpetite cipient or first stages Hypochondria only) Female coitfplaints Eruptions of the skin General debility Impaired sight and Indigestion, memory. Flatulence Nervous fancies Incapacity for study or Impoverished blood business Nervous debility in all , Sick headache its stages Lassitude Premature decline and all morbid conditions of the system, arising from whatever cause. The action of the Phosphodyne is twofold—on the one hand, increasing the principle which constitutes nervous energy; and on the other, the most powerful blood and flesh generating agent known; therefore, a marvellous medicine for renovating impaired and broken-down conststutions. quickly improves the function of assimilation to such a degree that, where for years an emaciated, anxious, cadaverous, and semi-vital condition has existed, the flesh will rapidly increase in quantity and firmness, and the whole system return to a state of robust health. The Phosphodyne acts electrically upon the organisation; for instance, it assists nature to generate that human electricity which renews and rebuilds the osseous, muscular, nervous, membranous, and organic systems. It operates on the system without exciting care or thought upon the individual as to the process. It moves the lungs, liver, heart, kidneys, stomach, and intestines, with harmony, vigour, yet mildness, unparalleled in medicine. The Phosphodyne gives back to the human structure, in a suitable form, the phosphoric or animating element of life which has been wasted, and exerts an important influence directly on the spinal marrow and nervous system, of a nutritive, tonic, and invigorating character; maintaining that buoyant energy of the brain and muscular system which renders the mind chcerful, brilliant, and encrgetic, entirely overcoming that dull, inactive, and i overcoming that dull, inactive, and sluggish 1 disposition which many persons experience in j all their actions. i The beneficial effects of the Phosphodyne are ' frequently'shown from the first day of its ad- j ministration, by a remarkable increase of ner- j voua power, with a feeling of vigour and comfort to which the patient has long been unaccustomed. Digestion is improved; the appetite j increases wonderfully; the bowels become f regular; the eyes brighter; the skin clear and ' healthy; and the hair acquires strength, i showing the importance of. the action of the ! Phosphodyne on the organs of nutrition. j Finally, the Phosphodyne maintains a certain i degree of activity in the previously debilitated nervous system; its use enables all debilitated organs to return to their sound state and per- ( form their natural functions, Persons suffering , from Nervous Debility, or any of the hundred < symptoms which this distressing disease ' assumes, may rest assured of an effectual and even speedy cure by the judicious use of this most invaluable lemedy.
