Many of our readers will be interested to learn that Mr Charles Edward Bunny, who has for some time past been subeditor of the Evening Press, has just retired from that post in order to resume his former profession as a barrister and solicitor, Mr Bunny joined the literary staff of this paper shortly after its establishment four years ago, and speedily displayed considerable journalistic capacity. As vacancies occurred, he was transferred from one position to another, until he reached the sub-editor's chair,in which lie has we understand, enjoyed the full confidence of the proprietors and editor, and has never failed to justify it; while his relations with all the members of the stafi' and his employers have been of an exceedingly pleasant character. It will be seen that Mr Bunny has commenced the business of the law in the well-known premises in Grey street, formerly occupied by Reuter's Agency, and we feel sure that not only his fellow workers in the Evening Press, where lie has borne himself so worthily, but many- others will give him their best wishes for success 111 his profession.

Oun special price-list recently issued, and giving a few details of some of the bargains in the bankrupt stock of A. CI. Price, had the effect, 011 Saturday, of drawing one of the largest crowds of visitors that were ever congregated within the walls of Te Aro House, Wellington,

They oanie f om all quarters, from the North, the South, the East, the West—from the Hutt, Potone, Johnsonville, Poring, the Manawatua, and Wairarapa, and from the Province of Marlborough and elsewhere. They came in shoals, not to look only, out to buy. and buy they did, wisely, discriminatingly, and cheaply, at the wonderful sale of Price's bankrupt stock at Te Aro House, Wellington. From all quarters comes the assertion of fjijs undoubted fact, that nothing like this sale hgs oyer transpired in the city; that for genuineness and the multitude pf unmistakable bargains it is without a rival in this city or elsewhere, So say we of Tc Aro Houso, Wellington. We want all our friends and the publio to understand that we were not able to move the whole of Price's stock at once. We brought and are bringing it down gradually dgy by day, so that there is no fear of scarcity pf bargains, They will not run ou while this sale pontinues'. and the last cus tomer equally with the fjrst will g.o away rejoicing because of his good fortune at the sale of Price's bankrupt stock at To Aro House, Wellington,

We cannot keep this sale going for inor than ten days from the present date, and therefore we would urge the public pf the town, suburbs, and country districts, tp grasp this present opportunity and empty their pockets, while supplying all their requirements at lower prices than wer.e eyer known in New Zealand at the sq,le of Price's bankrupt 6took at To Aro House, Wellington,- -Adyt
