No further bid or reserve will be made on the part of the owner, and no sections will be withdrawn.

TERMS: . In order still further to meet the requirements of all classes, the proprietor has determined to offer the most liberal terms, viz.:— One-third cash, one-third in one year' and one-third in two years ; bearing interest at the very moderate rate of Seven per Cent, per annum. Each section will be submitted as a separate lot, in the order in which they are placed on the Government map, and no section will be withdrawn.
