Extracts from the Official evidence given before the Houbo of Commons Select Committee on Explosive Substances —Parliamentary Session of 1874, London. Boxes filled with dynamite have been thrown from a great height, and found to sustain any amount of Bhock without exploding. They have also been placed upon an open fire, when the dynamite burned slowly away without exploding.—Parliamentary report—Blue Book, page 179. Dynamite has been in a railway collision and, though, the van and boxes containing it were broken, no explosion took place.—Blue Book, page 182, par. 2979 ' . Major Majendie, R.A., H.MS. Inspector of Gunpowder and Dynamite Factories, states, in his evidence (page 18, par. 100), that the law relating to dynamite is as munh tpo stringent us the gunpowder law is too lax ; and (page 20, par. 115) that the time has come for relieving safe nitroglycerine preparations from such unnecessary restrictions as the Nitroglycerine Act imposes upon them. Professor Abel, the Chemist to Her Maiesty's War Department, gives his experience that Nobel's dynamite is one of tbe safest, most powerful, and moat convenient explosive agents applicable to industrial purposes.— Blue Book, pages 56, 57. and 59.

Extraordinary Cure of an Auckland Omnibus Driver, 21 years Resident, of Long-standing Rheumatism. , Auckland, August 20,1878. Dear Sir, —I had suffered severely and most acutely from Rheumatism for many years, brought on, I believe, from exposure to all weathers in the exercise of my calling. For years I could not sleep at night, and was unable to lie except in one position. Day and night I was full of excruciating pains, scarcely able to move about at all, and as a natural sequence my general health was also materially injured. I believe I suffered the pangs of Rheumatism and its attendant evils in every shape and form, and my life was a burden to me. I tried every remedy I could hear of, but with* out obtaining any relief whatever. The sum I spent in medicine and medical advice was very considerable, but of no avail, until I invested in a bottle of your Blood Restorer. I may say that I was not, hopeful at all when I purchased your medicine; I had tried so many specifics without receiving tho slightest benefit, but having determined to give it a fair trial I curried out my intention. I adhered strictly to the directions, and the result is that I am changed from a mere wreck to ] my former self, again—restored to health and vigor, and able to drive daily through all weathers., and at all hours, if occasion toquires. I am sure you have never had a worse' case to deal with than-mine, and although even now, in bad weather, 1 feel my limbs rather stiffj after sitting on the box for a long time, I am a living example of the almost, miraculous curative properties (under Providence) of your now celebrated Blood Restorer. My friends tell me it is a duty X owe to my fellow creatures to send you this acknowledgement, and if it is the means of persuading other sufferers to go and do likewise, I shall feel that this letter is not written m.yam. I have the more pleasure in giving this .testimonial as it is quite unsolicited on your part. You are at liberty, of course, to make any use of this.—l am, sir, yours gratefully, \ \ Henrx MaiDjSN.
