System of Patent Strained Wire Fences.—The "Patent Winding Straining Pillar," made of cast-iron or in galvanized-hammored iron, is complete in itself; will stretch and keep tight any wire, entirely superseding the necessity for any separate straining tackle; being self-acting, it will strain 400 or 500 in one stretch, round the sharpest curves or angles, and over the most irregular ground, with the greatest ease and efficiency—making the erection of all kinds of wire fences simple, expeditious, and economical, both for permanent and removable fences. These patented improvements are a saving of two-thirds of the labor of erection alone. The Galvanized Wire Cable Strands will be found generally cheaper than plain wire fencing; they can be taken down without injury, and used again as oiten as required; made in long lengths of 500 or 1000 yards; are much more easily fixed than plain wire, and much stronger, and never become bent or broken. These fences have stood the test of sixteen years wear on all the principal railways in England, Scotland, and Ireland. This system of fencing was introduced into New Zealand by Mr Braithwaite, of Nelson, three years ago, and is now extensively adopted both in the Nelson and Marlborough Provinces, with great success. Catalogues of prices, and every information, can be obtained of A. S. Braithwaite, Esq., agent for Messrs. Francis Morton and Co. (limited), at the Exhibition. Galvanized Oval Pillar, 7 lines.
