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 iast ; nevertheless the numbers which represent them in the original Registry of applications were placed in the wheel with all the other numbers, and the unsold numbers were 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 above described) have been attached by the ballot. 3. Until further notice, any party, or his' Agent, attending at the New Zealand House on any Thursday at three o'clock, p. M. and producing the receipt of the Company's Bankers, Messrs. Smith, Payne, and Smith's, for jtf3oo, will be entitled to draw-in the presence of the Court of Directors, from a wheel in which the registry numbers of all unsold allotments have been deposited, with special precautions for theer security and for the fairness of the proceeding. The register of the original ballot will then shew to the party drawing and 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. 5. A list of the registry;|numbers with the rigfits of choice which were attached to each by the, original ballot, maybe seen at the New Zealand House, on application" to the Secretary. 0. Present purchaserj will be entitled to the same privileges, in respect to an allowance for cabin passages, (not exceeding 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 whom they may nominate; or, if they should prefer it, such choice will be exercised on their behalf by the officer* of the Company.
