JOSEPH GILES, Resident Magisla-ate and Warden. NEW ZEALAND TELEGRAPH. JL ING TIMBER along the Lyell Road between Christy's and Reefton, an average width -of two chains, and the overhanging trees to be felled out from the sides the whole -distance. Tenders *o be at per square chain for the whole distance, or any section of it, not less than five miles in extent. All Tenderers must enclose with tenders the sum of Fifty Pounds. H any tenderer refuse to proceed with the work, if required, the above sum will be forfeited. Also two substan-* tial sureties in the amount of twenty per cent of the value of each contract must be provided by those accepted. Tenderers must name the time within which they propose to complete their work, and all other things being equal, speed will receive preference. Tenders marked " Tender for Felling, 1 ' and addressed to " The Inspector of Telegraphs Reefton," will be received till noon of Friday, December 26, 1873. The lowest or any tender not necessarily accepted. By order of the Telegraph Commissioner. C. LEMON, General ManagerNOTICE. GOVERNMENT LIFE INSURANCE. Security of Policies guaranteed by the Colony. Low Rates of Premium. Conditions of Policies free from all needless restrictions. Settlement Policies in favour of wife and children protected from operations of Bankruptcy Laws, in terms of " New Zealand Government Insurance and Annuities Act, 1870." The POLICIES are NOT FOEFEITABLE by non-payment of premium until the full surrender value has been exhausted; thus, a person having paid for three years, would not forfeit his policy for 3 years and 125 days after the default of payment; and, again, a person having paid for five years, his policy would remain in force for 5 years and 86 days after said default of payment. It will be thus seen that no person need apprehend being compelled to forfeit his policy by non-payment of premiums owing to temporary embarrassment. The premiums are kept in a separate Trust account, and are invested in Government Debentures. The Chief Agent is now in Westport, and will be happy to give all information.
