The Proprietors and Auctioneers have been besieged with applications to allow people to select special Lota, as much as £lO per foot having been offered, but they have determined That evert Lot shall go to the Hammer, and that no preference or favor shall be shown TO ANT ONE. The Terms op Sale have been fixed on the most liberal basis, viz.: Ten per Cent. Cash Deposit, and the Balance by Three-monthly Acceptances, extending to Three Years, with Interest at Eight per Cent, per annum. While any Purchaser can get an immediate TRANSFER of his Land, should he desire it, on payment of purchase money. The Auctioneers will also make arrangements to lend to any purchaser who may desire to build, assistance to the extent ' of two-thirds of the value of the land and buildings to be erected thereon. Lithographed plans of the block will be distributed on Saturday, by which date every allotment will be pegged off and marked by a distinguishing flag.
