The size of the sections is about 1 rood ; each one possesses a frontage to one of the proposed streets 50ft. wide. Lithographed plans are in preparation, and will bs ready for delivery 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 pre-sed by country settlers and residents near Maatertou, to have a township surveyed *nd laid out; but until he had resolved to settle in Christchurch he steadily refused to secede to their wishes. Now that the Mangapakeha road will ¦ be completed in a few months, 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 Mas tor ton to Castlepoint and East Coast, there is no doubt a large number of passengers and traffic will come t>y this central route to meet the railway traius from Masterton to Wellington, and to Manawatu, Wanganui, &c. Within a few montns, the iron norse will have established his headquarters at Master ton — "the Chicago of the IV or them Island of New Zealand."
