An agreement for the purchase of twelve acres of freehold land ok the Koro Koto Stream, Petone, has be4n made with the. native owners, and registered. The. Company obtains under this agreement valuable waterrights, and the price to be paid may be deemed satisfactory. The principal portion of the above land was subject to a lease to Mr Wolland, and the Director^ have purchased all his interest? with the right of immediate entry. The waferaiSniie sfcreairi have been analysed; by. Dr Hector, who states that they are_p_ecnliarly adapted for the purposes required. The site has been reported npoli 'by experts, and pronounced to' be one of the most suitable in the whole colony for a Woollen Factory. . • The. advantages of road, raii,,and sea carriage at the factory gates, the ,close proximity of population, and the impossibility of interfering with or injuring other properties, are certainly of greatest consequence. From the.fact that negotiations are already in course of completion for appointing a thoroughly practical Manager, and that plans and specifications for erection of works will be promptly proceeded with, it will be understood that the Directors intend to proceed vigorously with the undertaking. .' . ' As more than 10,000 .shares have .already been' taken up. and 5000 will be reserved, there remain only between four and five ihousand shares open for allotment, which 1 We now offered to the public. Applications for shares may be made to the Secretary, at Wellington, either tlirectly or through the Brokers 6f the Company or any Agents.^ Every application must be accompanied by the required deposit, or by a receipt from any Branch of the Colonial Bank for the amount of such deposit.
