The Court of Directors of the New Zealand Company hereby give notice,' that a limited number of allotments of preliminary lands, each of which consists of three sections, viz. one acre of Town Land, fifty acres of Suburban Land, and one hundred and fifty acres of Country Land, are still open for sale in ;their second Settlement of Nelson. The price of each allotment is jffSOO. 2. These allotments were unsold when the general ballot for priority of choice was held on the 30th of August last ; nevertheless thr numbers which represent them in tile original Registry of applications were placed in the wheel with aU the other numbers, and the unsold numbers w^re drawn promiscuously with those which had been previously disposed of; consequently to each of the unsold numbers definite rights of priority of choice (distinct in respect to each of the sections abuve described} have been attached by th ballot. 3. Until further notice, any party, or his Agent, attending at the New Zealand House onpny Thursday at three o'clock; r. M.'and producing the receipt of the Company's Bankers* Messrs. Smith, Payne, and Smith's, for j£3oo, will be entitled to draw in the presence of the Court of Directors, from a wheel in which tbe registry numbers of all unsold allotments have been deposited, with special precautions for their security and for tbe fairness of the proceeding. The register of the original ballot will then shew to the party drawing any number, to what rights of priority of choice he is entitled. 4. Applicants therefore will obtain preliminary allotments, on precisely the same terms, with respect to price and the chances of priority of choice, as original purchasers. ' S. A list of the registry with the rights of choice! which were attached to each by the original ballot, may be seen at the New Zealand' House, on application to the Secretary. ! 6. Present purchasers will be entitled to the same privileges, in respect to an, allowance for cabin passages, (not ex-! ceeding 25 per! cent, on the purchase money) as those who' bought allotments before the general ballot. , 7. Purchasers not proceeding !to New Zealand will be entitled to delegate their rights of choice to any Agent wbomj they may nominate; or, if they should prefer it, such choice! will be exercised on their behalf by the officers of the ' Company.

' ' AT a Meeting of Emigrants on board the Maty Anne, bound" tc New Zealand, held on Monday, January 10, 1842, for the purpose of considering and deciding upon the expediency of establishing in the settlement <£ Nelson' a BENEFIT CLUB, or Friendly Association, William Cublimg Young, Esq., in the Chair; - 1 he following Resolutions were proposed and 'carried : — 1. Moved by Mr. G. Saunbbbs ;, seconded by Mr. R. Bod- 1 dingtoh : That, inasmuch as it is desirable at all times to provide for the casualties and contingencies of the future out of tbe abundance or sufficiency of the present, as the babit of selfreliance is destroyed when men are accustomed to look, for assistance, in time of need, either from individual charity or public provision ; and as it appears to be especially the inte- , rest of persons belonging to the industrious classes, in case of their being disabled tor work by age, sickness, infirmity, or accident, or in the event of death, to secure for their fami. lies a maintenance out of a fund which they themselves have contributed to raise ; this meeting is of opinion that the formation of a Society in the Colony of Nelson, founded on the principles of mutual aid and friendly combination, and having for its object the support of its members when at any time unable to follow their usual employment, and of their families in the event of their own death, would be a measure of public importance and utility. ft. Moved by Mr. Vincbnt ; seconded by Mr. Packman : I That a committee, with power to add to their number, be now appointed, for the purpose of making preliminary arrangements for the formation of the proposed Society ; that they be icquested to procure the accession of such influential persons as may appear likely to give weight to the undertaking ; and that, for the present, the Committee be composed of the following persons :— Mr. Mac Rea ' Mr. C.
