The imported sheep will be sold smgly, unless otherwise agreed upon at the time of sale ; some of these will be sold each day. The Mount Eden and Cliiistchuich Shakspere Merino Flocks will be sold in lots of five eweS to suit purchasers, and to enable each sheep holder to become his own ram breeder. The following is a list of the lots which will be offeied for competition — 235 two and four tooth lams ; one hundred are two tooth, and by imported Spanish lams, out of the Mount Eden ewes. 505 Shakspere Merino ewes, fiom two tooth upwards; the greater part of the two tooths are fiom the imported Spanish Meiino Rams. 400 ram and ewe lambs, moie or less by imported pure Spanish and Shakspeie rams, out of the above ewes. 65 imported Spanish ewes; fifteen have a dash of French blood ; about forty of them will lamb in December next, by the prize lam. 15 imported Spanish and Fiench Merino rams, one of which gained a fiist-class prize in Geimany two years following. i The weights of the fleece 1 ! from these imported sheep clipped in England, clean rivei washed, as follows :—: — French Meiino ewes averaged 101b. each. Spanish Merino ewes varied from 71b. to 111b. of wool, eleven mouths and a half growth. Imported Spanish rams, sues of the above-mentioned yearlings and lambs, clipped last season, over 151b. each in the grease. The Auckland Mount Eden Shakspere Merino flock has been removed to Canterbury, pai tly owing to the disturbed state of the northern island ; and Mr. Rich has since decided to dispose of the whole of his Mount Eden aud other sheep, and to return to England. The ewes have been selected for ram breeding, and their wool has been most favourably reported on by Mr. Hughes, the eminent wool-broker of London, The imported Spanish Merino flock is of ancient and pure blood, the fleece being lemarkably fine, veiy closely set, and of great weight. None of the ewes of this flock have ever- been disposed of since their importation from Spain. This is one of the most valuable flocks of sheep ever offered for sale in the southern hemisphere.

The whole of the sheep will be sold with the wool on. If there is a good attendance and fair competition at the sale, it is Mr. Rich's intention to dispose of the entire flock without leserve.
