TO 3BTIYEI3,S OF Freehold Sections. FREEHOLD HOUSES, OR SUBURBAN BLOCKS TO INVESTORS AND SPECULATORS IN CITY PROPERTIES. FOR many years past no such fas-orable opportunity as tho presont has presented itEelf for purchasing freeholds in and around Chriatohureh. The colony is just emerging from a state of depression which has resulted in a low market, but a glorious future ia before ns, and properties near the centre] of population are sure to become of great value. There is no coloDy in Her Majeaty's dominions which attracts bo much attention at present as Now Zealand, and no part of N.Z. so generally adapted for settlement oa Canterbury. Its advantages are greatly superior to tho other districts. It has not tho cold, raw, climate of the South, so trying to many constitutions. It is much in advance of tho North loland, half of which may bo a wallowed up at any moment by an EARTHQUAKE I And it hns vast plains cf superior fertility, easy of being worked by the agriculturists. Chriatohureh will bo the Melbourco of New Zealand, and not being subject to those spasmodic changes which characterise tho capitals of colonies'or districts dependent on gold returns, it will, no doubt, in its progress ba more stable, Bure, and permanent; hence, we say, no one can possibly go wrong in buying in the present market. We have sections on tho noith and west of the city boundaries, suitable for persons of means, beautifully situated, with magnificent views of the SOUTHERN ALPS from one side, and the Port Hj'ls from the other, surrounded with luxuri *nt verdure and park scenery, which, viewed by tho " soft light of the setting sun," can not bo surpassed in Old England. We have also properties near the TEMPLES OF MART, almo3t in tho heart of tho city, and for working men and mechanics we have plots around the bolts and in tho euburbs, and en the easiest of torms For clerks and tradesmen thero aro villas mid substantial modern-buiU residences, at vory low figures. A few Bargains for Cash, the owners of which aro compelled te realise. <T. B. DALE & CO., CATHEDRAL SQUARE. Sewing Machines. VERTICAL FEED.
