Manners Stbbbt, WsniNaTON. * ON FRIDAY, JANUARY 13, ISBB At| I o'clock p.m. m KENNEDY MACDONALD & CO. JL are favored with instructions frcm tho Wellingl.on and Manawatu Eailwi>y Company, Limited, to sell by public aucti 'n as above, about 1 O AAr\ ACRES of Grand Paß' JI6AJ\J\J toral LAND, situated uear the TOWNSHIP of OTAKI, being the Blookß Nob 3, 4, 6. 7, & 8 of the Kaitawa Survey District, subdivided into over GO sections, ranging iv area from 56 acres to Be-? en hundred and forty »Eeven acreß each, A number of the smaller sections are pure agricultural land, while the larger areaß ate part agrcultural and part pastoral. They live spltndidly wartered, and tho timber upon them is mixed tawa, rimu, &o. On several of the soctions will bo found magnificent totara ; tho whole of tho timber used in the Ofcaki Bridge, and tho sleepers required for tho railway, having been cut from portions of the bush. Tbe land is flat, and undulating and hilly and some of the flats have very rich rivor deposit*. The coil throughout is classed by experts as exceedingly good, the only stany portions being those on whica the totara is found, and the value of this limber for sawmill 1 purposes makes tbe land upon which it grows excepi ion allf valuable. All the sections are reached by partly clearod roads, running from the railway stations at Te Horo and Hautoro, about 44 miles from Wellington, the centre of the Blocks being abou^ 2£ miles from the railway stations, and thence in varions directions throughou' the Blocks. Tbe aim of the Company being to seU their lands to bonn fide occupiers, and bo create traffic for their 1 ne, high prices are not looked for ; the company, as a railway proprietary, recognising that a large and energetic body of settlers occupying highclass land, purchased at a low price, will be o£ more permanent value to them and the community than if they sold a limited area at high ratee. This result ij already being achieved, a large auraber of farmers 1 , eawmillere, and others being in actual occupa« tion of the lands sold by the Company during the last eightsen months. Many hundreds of acros of bußh are now down ready for burning, and nob a few of the previous buyers bavo been offered handsome profits on their investments. In order to increaie this satisfactory result, the terms of bale are still fixed on a basis which will, we feel Bure, be appreciated by all wao desire to see the lands of the country speedily settled. They are as follow :— DEPOSIT AT THE AUCTION SALE, 10 PER GENT. Tho BALANCE of 90 per cent to REMAIN on MORTGAGE for SEVEN YEAR?, bearing interest at the unproce* dtntedly low rate of FIVE PER CENT per annum. In order to induce occupation and im« provement, the purchaser will be required to enter into au undertakicg to eipend during the first threo years, by his own labour or otherwise, an amount equal to 10 per cant per annum cf hia purohn?e money, or in lieuthereof, should he prefer to let his section lie idle, to pay, in reduction of big purohase money, 10 per cent per annum in cash. The Title is Land Transfer Act. The Company havo arranged to issue Special Return Tickets at reduced price?. Between Wellington and Te Horo or Hau« tere, return 3* j between Longburn and Te Horo or Hautere, return 3s j and from intermediate stations at the same reduced rate.
