TMs is undoubtedly" the" finest property which has been 'submitted to public competition in these districts for many years past, and cer-"'. tainly offers many advantages to intending settlers, not possessed by either General or Provincial Gov eminent lands, inasmuch as the Estate in question is nearly all fenced ; is quite as rich in quality, and certainly more desirable as regards grain raising or pasture than the famed Whenuakura, Waitotara, or Railway Reserve. 2. The magnificent crops (60 or 70 bushels per acre being quite an ordinary thing) ; the splendid pas. tares none of which have been artificially manured since their formation, upwards of twenty years ago, and the great numbers of sheep and cattle kept per acre without artificial food or shelter throughout the year on the adjoining properties, fully prove the richness and fertility of the several country sec tions as indicated above, and should be sufficient to claim the attention of intending settlersandotherswho may be desirous of obtaining a valuable and pajong property within easy distance of a shipping port and centre of commerce, being within half-an-hour's drive of the town of Wanganui. 3. The greater portion of the country property is well grassed, well watered and wooded, and easily accessible by good macadamized roads. The surveyed line of railway, to be I shortly commenced, runs throngh the property, and must necessarily much enhance its market value, as affording additional means of ex peditious transit to and from all parts of the Island. TITLE, CROWN GRANT. This Property will be offered in such lots as will suit all purchasers. Special attention is called to the exceeding liberality of the terms of payment, which are the easiest ever offered in this Province, enabling the farmer to take immediate advantage of the hi"-h | price of produce generally, to improve his stock, and the condition of his pro perty by having the use of the Casn, which is too often paid for the land at a high rate per acre, crippling his resources for many years, and preventing those improvements which competition and the advancement of civilization demand. Terms :—25 per cent, cash; the ba». ance of purchase money, by Bills at 1, 2, and 3 years, bearing interest at 6 per cent, per annum. A Champagne Lunch at 1 o'clock ir Frank's well known style. Every information on application Geo. Hutchison, Esq., Brarkter, Wanganui, or to the Auctioneer. Aug. 27, 1873 -Aol .i ■■:■
