JAMES M'BETH begs to inform the *■" ' Public that the business heretofore carried on by him on the above named premises will in futui'e be conducted upon a larger and more complete scale, and on a more iavorable site. For the present he is ready to execute orders at his establishment, Pipitea, and would particularly t;all attention to the reduction in prices which circumstances have enabled him to make, namely, 25 percent; that is to say, one- fourth less than the prices charged formerly for all Trees,- Shrubs, Greenhouse Plants, Bulbs, &c. He begs to state that the business will be conducted upon the most approved principles, no expense being spared in procuring the true varieties of all fruit trees. Having established an orchard in connexion with the Nursery, in order to" procure scions from his own stock, he will be enabled to guarantee the sorts, and guard against American blight in the apples. Now ready for sale, all sorts of Cabbage,

Cauliflower, Asparagus, and other plants. Application to be made at James M'Beth's, seed and grocery establishment, corner of Mul-grave-street and Lambton Quay; the Wellington Nursery being now in the hands of W. Lumsden, with whom for the future he has no connexion. Wellington, July 24, 1852.
