W^" CONTRACT FOR SURVEYS. NOTICE is hereby given that TENDERS for tbe following CONTRACTS will be received at this office up to the 24th of March : Contract No. 1 comprises land contained within these boundaries. On the north-east, that of the sea shore (high water mark), from the mouth of the river Wairoo (Cloudy Bay) to the first cliff on the coast. North-west, by a continued range of hills. South-east, by the river Wairoo. South-west, it terminates at a point where the river flows at the foot of the bills. Contract No. 2 extends from the Wairoo mouth south-east along the coast to a cliff known as the White Bluff ; and inland, is contained between the river Wairoo on the one .<ide, and a well defined range of hills on the other ; terminating on the south-western extremity of a small wood, at a line crossing the plain, in a course due south by compass. Contract No. 3. commencing at the same line, is contained on either side within the same natural boundaries as No. 2 ; and extends inland to the first river flowing from the southeast across the plain to the river Wairoo. Contract No. 4 consists of all the available land on either side of the river Ourere (Massacre Bay). It is estimated that each contract on the Wairoo will comprise as much as 20,000 acres of land ; but it is not probable that more than 75 per cent, of the whole would be eligible for subdivision into sections. The Specifications may be referred to on and after Monday the 1 3th instant. Frederick Tuckett, Survey office, Neslon, March Q. Chief Surveyor.
