TF your ambition is to become rich, it matters X not if you have money, or are without it, if you only lnve courago, and it is certain if you have nothing to lose you have nothing to fear, only keep your designs to yourself, for if anyone knows that you have nothing they will take good care not to let you have much. No one knows what he can do till he tries and becomes his own landlord, by making his rent purchase his freehold, whether cottage, shop, or farm, for it is well known that the rent takes half the wages of the working man, and in a shop the rent generally swallows the profits, and a farmer often has to give a bill of sale over his stork to enable him to pay the landlord. Tberefere I would advise every man to become his own landlord, and sot hesitate and ponder half of bis life what he is going to do, and sleep the other half in a young country like this, the only colony in the world that has not had its day. We have well known hundreds to have lost fortunes through letting bargains, such as corner allotments and acres, slip through their hands, when they might have had them for a mere song, and might now have been riding about in their carriages in the old country, instead of waiting till the land is going to be given away, )ike all unlucky men who can do nothing for themselves, and cannot bear to see anyone getting on; but my plans of life are clear; I believe in going ahead, but l do not believe in pajing rent, when I can have freehold allotments and acres without paying anything down, except a small deposit to clinch the bargain, and to get the title deeds in my name, and easy terms of a lifetime, if required, to pay the balance. So any man wishing for either cottages, shops, or farms, without any capital, can have them, by seeing O. W. CLAYTON, Thorndon Quay, Wellington, Before 10 a.m., or after 5 p.m. WHOLESALE.
