FTIHE TOWNSHIP OF LEITHFIELD The sanitarium of Canterbury, twenty-seven miles north of Christclmrch, the North Road running through the centre of the town, with a good road to the beach which is about a-niilc and a-quartcr distant, and which has a fine mossy flat running parallel with the beach about three or four chains from the sea, (with a fine stretch of hard dry sand nt low water,) "a splendid place for visitors and families" to ride or have a pic-nic, and will some day become the race-course of the north. The township is situated within sight of these and is surrounded by a largo and rapidly improving agricultural dirtrict. Some idea of the rapidity with which it is advancing may be formed by the fact, that upwards of sixty town sections are already sold, that there are, besides other inhabitants, a medical practitioner, a, blacksmith, a butcher, and a nursery gardener, established in the town—that a residence for fhe district Engineer ami buildings for Government Offices are in the course of erection, and that advertisements arc issued for tenders for tho materials and construction of the Church. Tho Hotel will also be speedily enlarged for tho better accommodation of the visitors who aro already repairing to thie healthy spot for tho benefit of then , health. Tho prices realised at auction, by Messrs. Aiknmn and Wilson, ranging from £12 10s. to £22, aro a good proof of the value of tho site, being bought by parties who well know tho place. A great many sections having. been sold privately since the sale by auction, tho proprietor has decided to sell the remaining sections that aro laid out, all by private eulo, at £12 10s. per quarter-aero. Application to bo made personally, or by letter, to Mr. John Lcith, of Leithfield, Xowai, Double Corner. Jan., 27th, 18G3. UNRESERVED SALE.
