To anyone fond of gardening, no better s il or situation could be desired ; it is the very perfection of soil for gardrn or orc hard purposes—a rich, dry, volcanic loam.

Nowhere »n Auckland is tho air, during the summer, so fresh and bracing as it i 3 in this neighbourhood, tempered as it is by the cool waters of the Manukau harbour. To those whose avo cations compel them to toil in the <-nervating atmos phcre of the city during the day, nothing could tend more to invigorato their systems than the trip out by rail to Glen Grove. A featuro at once n vel and possessing sterling advantages will be noticed in tho laying out of the sections and roads. Each of tho small sections has a frontage, or ingress to. a permanent pasture reserve in tlio centre of each block ; no two of these small sections arc back to back, but all are backed by a green field. By the conditions of sale, these will be reserved as open pastures for all time. So that, however thickly populated tbe place may become, it will always have these open breathing spaces in tho midst of the various blocksof buildings, in tho matter of scenery. Glen Grove will yield the palm to no other place about Auckland. It:.nn. t t be seen to be appreciated, as it is not to do justice to it in a short paragraph such as this. It being impossible to fully describe the many attractions offered to those seeking rural homes, at moderate prices, not too far from the city, we can only nrge those desiring such to pay a -visit of inspection before inve-:tin; elsewhere. Terms — One - fourth cash, balance at seveu percent. Lithographs will shortly be out. Title -Lands Transfer.
