FULLER particulars will be furnished on application, and i ntending Buyers or Lessees, who do not see anything in this list to suit them, are invited to send me a note of their requirements, which shall receive prompt and personal attention, sp” In order to remove erroneous itnprea* cions as to the taxation of the Taranaki die* trict, the following facts and figures are sup* plied:— All Lands, whether in town, villages, or country, situated on the lin3\of coast between Mokau on the .north, and on either side of Mount; Egmonit as far as, bnt not on the south, are chargeable with the New Plymouth Hasbonr rate of THREE PARTHHsTjS in the £ on the capital value, as determined triennially by the Property Tax Assessment. Thus, a property valued at £IOOO pays £3 2s fid per annum. County Rates. In the Taranaki County the rates amount to One Penny (Id) in the £, and in Clifton j County ONE HALFPENNY (id), in each case, inclusive of the levy for Hospital and Charitable Aid. hue District Road Rates vary from - 1 to |d in the £, but in some district no rate is struck. It will thus be seen that the greatest rating in any Country District is 2-Jd in the £, viz., Harbour |d. County Id, and Road Board fd. In the Borough of New Plymouth, the total Municipal Rates amount to 2s 9d in'tho £ on ANNUAL valuation, and include an abundant and constant snpply of p|||e water.
