Its situation is an admirable one, being only a few miles from Mastertou, with frontage to a good coach road for three miles along tho Taueraroad. Tho soil is of a superior nature, being all limestone formation. The stock, both ef sheep and horses, ;is acknowledged : to be of a very superior description, all having been selected by able judges. The property, taken altogether, is one certainly not to; be. surpassed in any part of the. Island, and with; the speedy extension of the railway to within a few miles of tho land, it is certain of increasing rapidly in value. Briefly, Mr. Duncan can unhesitatingly assort that investors, speculators, or occupiers have never had, nor are they likely to have, so good an opportunity for profitable investment, as the above. ... Further particulars may be had on applying to James Gilligan, Esq., or to R. J. DUNCAN, Land and Estate Agent, Auctioneer, &c,
