THE WHATAUPOKO ESTATE.

It will bo hardly necessary for us to remind our readers of the important land Bale, which will bo hold next Saturday, ]9th inst., when the well-known Whataupoko Estate will be offered for sale by public auction, The plana have been out for some time, and it can be seen at a glance that the property has been very judiciously sub-divided into farms calculated to 6uit the requirements of all classes of purchasers. This sale will afford an opportunity of securing choice sections most conveniently situated, the greater part of it being first-class land which is bound to greatly increase in value from the improvable nature of the soil, growth of dairying, and increasing population. There is one of the finest and most palatial residences in the district on tho estate, and it will be offered at the sale. This is situate on section 39, of 185 acres, and would mako a beautiful suburban residence. We can only refer our readers to the advertisement in connection with this sale appearing in another column, where every detail is concisely set forth, together [ with tho upset prices. As some of the purchasers may require a portion of the capital for improvements tho executors have introduced a special concession which spreads tho second 20 per cent, of the purchase money over two years, in the case of those purchasers who have fenced and put their holdings into profitable use within the first six months. This conces- | sion of course does not apply to lots 39, 51, 52, and 03. We are of opiuion that | buyers may operate with every confidence, as they can hardly go wrong making purchases in this splendid locality. The Bale will be held at McFarlane's Hall at 11 eitrj
