PROSPECTUS. NEW LAND ASSOCIATION. 4 LTHOUGH '« The Auckland Land Asso- ■£-&- ciaiion" hits not yet been a year established, its advantages have been so fully appreciated by its members and by the classes for whose benefit it was more especially intended, that several ofits members have considered it. desirable that a new Association, of the same nature, but of enlarged objects, should be scion foot as speedily as possible. They are of opinion that there are many among the labouring and trading - classes of the community, and agriculturists now leasing land, who would, if their means would allow of it, become the purchasers, and bona fide and beneficial occupiers of land lately brought into market at the reduced price, under thenew Land Regulations. But whilst the labouringclasses are struggling to accumulate means, by slow degrees, from their earnings, and traders and men of small capital find it necessary to have their limited capital employed in their several businesses, men of wealth in the colony, and others who are arriving from the adjoining colonies, arc buying up, and will continue to buy up, the land all around us (mostly for the purposes of speculation) until not an acre is left to those who have held on by the colony, and struggled with all its vicissitudes. * His Excellency the Governor, in reply to a letter which the Committee of the Auckland Land Association addressed to him, in May last, stated that '■ he considered it his duly to issue the proclamation of the lib March last, containing the New Regulations for the sale of land, partly with a view to enabling the frugal and industrious easily to acquire small freehold properties, eilherdirectly or indirectly, through Associations such as the Auckland Land Association," and that " in order to render them entirely effectual and successful, no effort would be wanting, on his part, to procure as extensive tracts of land as possible in the vicinity of Auckland, so that an ample choice may be afforded to intending purchasers; and tha the Land Regulations will be so administered as to afford every proper facility to those whose limited means only permit them to purchase small farms." Encouraged by this, it lias been thought that his Excellency would carry out this kindly interest in the welfare of the less wealthy portion of the community, by layingaside a block or blocks of land in such district or districts as the members of the Association, now projected to be formed, might suggest, and of such size as it might appear they would require—to be divided in such portions as might be agreed upon, and to be paid for at such periods as each member of the Association should become entitled to its advantages, according to some such plan as that of the now existing Association. Parties inclined to join in the preliminary steps of such art Association, are invited to send in their names to Mr. J. T. Boylan, Q'jcen street; Mr.John Williamson, Shortlandsircet; or Mr. A. W. Hansard, Princes' street. Auckland, July 26, 1805. PROSPECTUS O N E HUNG A L AND S 0 C I E T Y. Shares Monthly Payments . £2O r FIIE Pensioners and the residents of Onc- -- hunga have recently had two facts forced upon their notice, which have caused to them no little alarm. One is, the present difficulty of obtaining firewood at a moderate price, and the probability of this difficulty gradually increasing by the best land getting into private hands—the other is, that the agricultural land in their neighbourhood is being rapidly bought up by strangers with whom they have not the pecuniary means to compete. A Society therefore has been formed with the view of removing both these difficulties, by which it is proposed to put chase a portion of bush land upon the Manakau, to be worked by the Society for the purpose of supplying firewood to the members exclusively and by a monthly subscription, to provide each member with sufficient funds to enable him to purchase a piece of land for agricultural purposes. So soon as a moderate number of Shares are subscribed for, a meeting of the subscribers will be held for the purpose of making the proper rules and regulations for the management of the society of which due notice will be given. Applications for shares to be made to Mr. Lusk. HOLLOWAY'S PILLS. SOLI) BY MR. WELLESLEY HUGHES, Shortland-street, Auckland. A Lady cured of Asthma after Twenty Years Suffering, by the use of Hollo'caifs Pills. r P II E Wholesale Agent for the sale ol Holloway's Pills in New South Wales, alludes, in a letter to Professor Ilolloway, to several extraordinary cures of Asthma, effected in that Colony, by the use of these invaluable Pills; and to one case in particular—that of a lady residing near a hill named the Razorback, who, after having for twenty years been abided with great difficulty of breathing, and unable, in consequence, to bear the slightest exertion, at last used Litis remedy, and is now, to use her own expression, able to run to the top of that high hill. Extraordinary cure of Rheumatic Fever by IFollowaifs Pi7/s, in Van Jhemen's Land. Margaret M'Connigan, nineteen years of age, residing at New Town, had been suffering from a violent rheumatic fever for upwards of two months, which had entirely deprived her of the use of her limbs. During this period she was under the care of three of the most eminent medical men in Hobart Town, and by them her case was considered hopeless. A friend prevailed upon her parents to try Holloway's celebrated Pills, which they consented to do, and in an incredibly short space of time a perfect cure was effected. The particulars of this case are copied from the 'Hobart Town Courier.'
