This time it is for no less than £4000, which will give handsome prizes even to the non-starters. Mr North's former racing sweeps have invariably been conducted with such thorough fairness as to give entire satisfaction to all interested, and we are not surprised to hear thai there is already a brie k demand for tickets for his " four-thousand* pounder,"—Etexikg Post, 9th September.

NORTH, Box 109, Post Office; or, Lambton Quay, Wellington. 1135 " I begin to understand your language much best" laid my French friend to me; " but your rerbs trouble me so—you mix them so with your preposition." "I am sorry you find them troublesome," was all I could say. "I saw your friend, Mrs Mrs B, just now," continued he; "she says she intends to break down housekeeping." " Break up house-keeping she must have said, but why does she do that ?" I asked. " Because her health is so broken into." "Broken down you should say." "Oh I yes; and since the scarlet ferer has broken up in Auckland " ("broken out"), "she thinks she will go on the Thames for a few weeks." " Indeed! and she will close her house." "No; she is afraid it might be brokenbroken—how do I say that ? " '' Broken into. Is her son married yetP" V^°,j that engagement is . broken into." " Broken off, you mean, I had not heard that." "Her son only broke the news down to her last week. Am I right ? I ■m so anxious to speak English well." "He merely broke the news; no preposition tbis time." "It is hard to under* stand. That young man, her son, is a fine fellow—a breaker, I think." "A broker, and a rery fine fellow. Goodday." I left my friend studying English grammar. ,_..,,..
