DESIRABLE INVESTMENT. A CONVENIENT and ECONOMICALLY MANAGED RUN FOB SALE AT FORT UNDERWOOD. ME. E. J. DUNCAN has received instructions from Mr. J. N. Flood to sell by public auction, on Tuesday, 3rd August, at his sale-rooms, Panama-street— That valuable property known as STAEMOUNT RUN, Containing—--7100 acres, more or less, situated in Fort Underwood, Province of Marlborough. This ran is held under a lease, of which seven years are unexpired, at a yearly rental of £2O 14s. 2d., with a right of renewal from the Crown for a further period of years, at an advance on present rent. The proprietor has fortunately purchased the FREEHOLD OF ABOUT 145 ACEES, Which comprise ALL THE AVAILABLE LAND forbuildingor agricultural purposes in the various bays and approaches to the run. The property is nearly quite paddocked by the waters of Port Underwood and Cook Strait, and is capable or can be made to carry from eight to ten thousand sheep, with a good herd of cattle, easily and profitably kept in the bays around the proper site for a homestead. Together with the freehold and leasehold will be sold upwards of ONE THOUSAND SUPEEIOE MEEINO SHEEP now depasturing theron. The proprietor’s freehold of nearly 160 acres r< ally shuts up the leasehold and renders it unavailable to others. The sole reason for the owner parting with the above is in consequence of declining health; and the auctioneer confidently recommends it to persons seeking for a safe investment for a moderate capital. Such an opportunity, indeed is at present, and has been for the past few years, of rare occurrence. Port Underwood is one of the most accessible and safest harbors in New Zealand. Terms of payment are liberal.
