GAME LICENSES.

TO TJIJS KDITOK. iSir, — I observe by the lis>t of those to whom licenses to shoot game have been issued, advertised in last issue, that the names of a good few people who go out shooting are not given — I suppose because they have no licenses. Would it not be as well if they were to take out a license, or that a summons should be taken out against them ? — I am, &c, FAZE bLAT.

At Njaka, Russia, an actress, by name Mauame Barbara Parmenovna Kossiakovakaja, owed a butcher eighty - four roubles for meat, which she was temporarily unable to pay. One evening, the butcher went to the theatre where she was playing a leading role in the Russian drama, "The Actress of Venice.'" He was so overcome by her acting that, in the midst of one of her impassioned speeches, he exclaimed in a stentorian voice': "Barbara Parmenovna, I consider myself paid for all the meat 1 have sold you !" The audience burst into uprorious laughter. The actress sued her creditor for defamation of charaoter. The new Pure Cash System now being initiated by G. and C. will certainly prove a benefit to the public. It has been a great success in Sjdney and Melbourne, and when strictly canied out the customer who buys at .in establishment where the goods are marked low to ensure a rapid bale must be a great gainer. G. and C. sell their drapery, millinary, and clothing at such prices for cash as gives the buj cr the advantages of a shareholder in a co-operative society, without the risk of being called upon to bear abortion of the loss should the year's businesi prove unsatisfactory. Garlick and Cranwoll will aim to retain the confidence which the public have hitherto shown them, and are detirmined to give the pure cash system a fair tri.il ; whether they gain or lose the first year. Country buyers on remitting cash with order will be supplied with gO9ds at co-opcrathe prices ; just the same as though they made a personal selection- , Furnishing goods, such as caipcts, floor cloths, bedsteads, bedding, and general htfUse furniture, the largest portion of which is turned ont.at our pwn iactoiy, will be marked at ♦foe lowest remuneramc* prices, and a discount of five per cent, will bo allowed to those who pay at the time of purchase. ,G. &.
