DUNCAN has received instructions from James Gilligan, Esq., of the Taueru, to sell by public auction, on Thursday, 10th September, at his Sale Rooms, Panama-street, Wellington — THE TOWNSHIP OF WARDELL. About nine miles from Masterton, on the main road to Castle Point and Napier. This township has beon surveyed by J. H. Coleridge, Esq., is admirably laid out, every street and corner seetiin pegged and numbered, and consist of nearly 250 allotments. The size of tbe sections is about 1 rood ; each one possesses a frontage to one <<f the proposed streets 50ft. wide. Lithographed plans are in preparatien, and will b9 ready for d .livery on and after Monday, 2nd September. Wardell is the only available site for a township from Masterton to Castle Point. For the past eight years Mr. Gilligan has been pressed by country settlers and residents near Masterton, to have a township surveyed and laid out, but until he had resolved to settlo in Christchurch he steadily refused to accede to their withes. Now that the Mangapakoha road will be completed in a few mouths, settlers and visitors will be able to drive their buggies and coaches throngh to Castle Point. As a daily coach is also expected shortly to run from Masterton to Castlepoint and East Coast, there is no doubt a large number of passengers and traffic will come by tliis central route to meet the railway traius from Masterton to Wellington, and to Mauawatu, Wanganui, &c. Within a few montns, the iron horse will have established his headquar'ers at Masterton — "the Chicago of the Northern Island of New Zealand." The Auctioneer would point out how very favorable the present sale is therefore fur purchaso, or as a spoculative investment. He feels that he is within safe limit in stating that within twelve mout hs the value of real property in this magnificent district will increase in value from four to tenfold ; to that any one can oxpect, or that it will realise on the 19th September To persons of limited capital it Is the best and greatest opportunity ever offered in this country for many years past of making money in a short time.
