Each section will be submitted as a lease, having 21 years to run from the Ist September, 1592, at an annual ground upset rental, which can be a seer ta;n-(l on application. Each lease will contain a covenant for renewal from Hint- to time in perpetuity, at the option of the lessee, his representatives or assigns, for terms of 14 years each, the new ground rent at the end id each term being ascertained by valuation, the hole of the improvements placed upon the land remaining the absolute property of the lessee. The property is being let under the Public Bodies Powers Act, ISm. The title i-> Land Transfer. This sale offers an unequalled opportunity to business men in the City of Wellington or to tho-e out of its bounds desirous of becoming interested in business pursuits in the commercial and political Capital of the Ojlony. The large number of sections, their varied size and diversity of situation, gives a freedom of choice to every class of business altogether exceptional, and. which in the very nature of things cannot again occur. In immediate proximity to a number of the sections will be found the General Post office, the Queen's Wharf, leading Banks, Finance institutions, and Wholesale Mercantile establishments, while the new extension of the main line of railway to Te Aro will prove of inestimable advantage to every business t.> be established on these sections. The upset Rentals have been fixed at an extremely low rate, the desire of the City authorities being to lease the whole of their lands to a large number of business people at easy Rentals, and thus create prosperous Katepa;, ers, rather than to lease a few sections at high prices, and allow the remainder to be idle. It is needless to expatiate upon the advantages of a Business Investment in such Lauds. A Perpetual Lease at a low rental, with the full benefit of the whole of the Improvements vesting in the Tenant, is for business purposes as a rule superior to any Freehold, and is decidedly so in tins case. The rapid expansion of the city, its geographical position, its unequalled harbour, and facilities of communication with every part of the North Island by rail and road, gives it a pre eminence as a distributing and manufacturing centre, which is now universally admitted. It is impossible for the heads of business houses who rarely visit the bush settlements of the North Island to realise the immense changes which are now taking place in that enormous tract of country, extending from Wellington to beyond the Mokau River 011 the West Coast, and to beyond Gisborne on the East Coast, and lying between these two points. Tens of thousands of acres of bush are being felled every year and converted into grass lands, carrying their three and four sheep per acre. Hundreds of families are annually being settled on these lands; many townships have been and are still being formed ; businesses of various kinds established in each, and the whole of the vast trade created by such settlement is centering in the City of Wellington, its merchants and commercial men receiving the full benefit of the trading profits arising from such a vast aggregation of new business. A moment's reflection will, therefore, show to every acute mind that under these circumstances, investments in good business sites, such as these now about to be 1 submitted, must prove of extreme advantage to those prepared to take advantage of the present opportunity. The sale plan, and the particulars and conditions of sale, and the form of lease to he entered into, can be seen at the offices of J. E. PAGE, Esq., Town Clerk, Brandon-street, Wellington, and the Auctioneers, No. », Panama-street, Wellington.
