TO BUYERS OP Freehold Sections. EHEEHOLD HOUSES, SUBURBAN BLOCKS TO INVESTORS AND SPECULATORS IN CITY PBOPEETIES. PjlOR many years past no such favorable D opportunity aa the present has presented itoolf for purchasing freeholds in and around Christchurch. The colony is just emerging from a state of depression which has resulted in a low market, but a glorious future is before us, and properties near the centres of population are sure to become of great value. There is no colony in Her Majesty's dominions which attracts no much attention at present as New Zealand, and no part of N.Z. bo generally adapted for settlement as Cantorbury. Its advantages are greatly superior to the other districts. It has not the cold, raw, ! climate of the South, so trying to many constitutions. It ia much in advance of the North Island, half of which may be ewallowed up at any moment by an EARTHQUAKE! And it has vast plains of superior fertility, easy of being worked by the agriculturiais. Christchurch will be the Melbourne of Njw Zealand, and not being subject to thiEe spasmodic changes which characterise iho capitals of colonies or districts dependent on gold returns, it will, no doubt, in its progess bo more stable, sure, and permanent ; heice, we say, no one can possibly go wronj in buying in the present market. We have sections on the north and wet of the city houndaries. suitable for person of moans, beautifully situated, with magnificent views of th« SOUTHERN ALPS from one side, and the Port Hills from the other, surrounded with luxari»ntverdun and park scenery, which, viewed by the ' soft light of the setting sun," can not be surpassed in Old England. W« have also properties near the TEMPLES OF MART, almost in the heart of the oity, ani for working men and mechanics we havaplots around the belts and in the suburbs, aid on the easiest of terms For clerks and tradesmen there are villas and substantial modern-built residences, at very low figures.
