The land has a frontage of 100 links to Main-street, with a depth of 500 links. The ground plan of the Hotel covers 54ft by 42ft, the building containing on the ground floor commercial-room, parlor, dining and sitting-rooms, bar parlor, and bar, under which there is a first-class cellar. On the up-stairs floor there are eight single and four family bed-rooms, all airy and lofty, besides one drawing-room A corridor, seven feet wide, extends the whole depth of the building, and opens cut to an ornamental yet substantial balcony. The kitchen, which is detached from the main building, is large and spacious, measuring 80 feet by 20 feet, and is replete with all the conveniences necessary for a kitchen attached to a first-class Hotel There is also up-stairs accommodation in tbis part of the building, consisting of four family and two single rooms. The stable comprises seven loose-boxes, five stalls, and a. harness-room. It is lofty and well ventilated, and has every convenience attached. The NEWMARKET SALE YARDS are at the rear of the Hotel, and form a portion of the property. The whole of the timber used in the construction of the building consists of totara, matai, and rimu. There .is a never-failing spring of water, to which is' attached a first-class pump, thus making a certainty of this much-needed re-, quisite. The yard is thoroughly drained by box drains, and is well metalled. The building is most favorably situated, for, although within the town, it has still a certain retirement which gives it decided advantages as a family hotel. It is directly opposite the Terrace End Railway Station, and at the very junction of the Great N apier Road with the main street of Palmeraton. At that end of the town, and closely surrounding it, there are four sawmills, a flourmill, and other industries which serve to give it one of the most extensive bar businesses In the district. The Auctioneer would draw special attention to the fact that the present proprietor had the building Mmtcted under his own supervision, and thaf'o expense has been spared in making it thoroughly substantial and complete, a fact sufficiently guaranteed to by the large patronage bestowed ia the past four years during which it has been in his possession. To a man of moderate means, tbe above offers an opportunity of investing rarely met with, as the terms are exceedingly liberal, and will be declared at sale, or upon application by letter to G. M. SNELS3N, Auctioneer, Palmeraton North. (for continuation of auctioneers' advertwmentssee page 4.) OAMUEL AND COMPANY, PANAMA-STRBBT, AUCTIONEERS AND CATTLE SALESMEN.

When France's first Emperor plann'd the invasion Of Britain, and muster 'd his troops at Boulogne, Nor fathers, nor sons needed any persuasion. But cashed to defend tneir dear land and the throne. In after years also, when danger was Dear us, A/Id Europe- throughout was of warfare the scene, Our Volunteer hosts made all enemies fear us; The nation stood forth in defence of its Queen. So when Bishop first open'd his Ghocbxx Stokbs, When strong opposition prevail'd in the trade, The customers flock'd to his depot by scores, And left with delight at the purchases made. His prices were such that all classes would please, His goods were pronounced of the genuine sort, And all who have tasted his fine-flavor'd tea 3 Declare they're the beat that have enter'd this port. Tbe motto says, JPalmam gui meruit ferat : Then Bishop's entitled to highest of praise, He keeps such a stock that no critic can jeer at, Which hastens his great reputation to raise. His fame is bo great that bis shop is invaded By volunteer hosts, who his patrons have been, Who continue as such, and have others persuaded To stick to hU cause as they would to their QueenMRS. GRIMES has vacancies for two Gentlemen Boarders — single room*. Lancaster House, Terrace (two doors below Jewish Synagogue).
