Stokes, Esq., adjacent to the splendid River MANEWATU. These lands are partially wooded with timber of the best description, and are generally level, and equally adapted for agriculture or grazing, the pursuit at present receiving so much attention in this Colony, and possessing every requisite for either. No opposition need be apprehended from the natives, who are believed to be very desirous of having settlers among them to create a demand for their labour. The proprietor waves, in favour of the fortunate purchasers, the right of forming a Town or Village in one of the most eligible parts, and is confident the really valuable qualities and locality of these lands will be estimated particularly by parties desirous of settling at once, as well as to capitalists wishing for a good investment. Plan of the ground may be seen at the Exchange. Terms— -purchases not exceeding £10, 3 month ; £10 to £20, 3 and 6 month's : above £20, 3, 6, and month's bills. Wellington, May 26, 1842.
