Roads have been partially formed ; reserves for public purposes, viz., for four cuurches, educational establishments, cricket ground, and a public park of 20 acres, have been provided for. In view and expectation of this lovely suburban township being connected by railway with the city, extensive reserves have been made for this purpose. Talcing advantage of the experience gained by the running of the steam tramway in_ Wellington, ample provision has been made in the formation of the various streets in Seatoun for allowing easy curves for the laying down of the future tramway, and which would be a great advantage if a similar principle were adopted in Wellington, and doubtless will be in the laying out of future townships. The whole of the site of Seatoun is nearly a dead level, having a fine view of the ocean, being the entrance to the harbor at Worser Bay, and possessing a safe anchorage, with a beautiful sandy beach in front of the township, extending fully a mile long. This spot has been celebrated for the past 37 years for the excellent and abundant fish of all sorts procurable here. As a matter of fact there is no other place within many miles of this large and constantly increasing city possessing so many attractions as Seatoun, and the Auctioneer feels confident in recommending this great sale (perfectly unreserved) to the attention of men of capital and to persons of moderate and small means. The proprietor would not have thought of disposing of it had it not been necessary for him to leave New Zealand for some considerable time before long. Carriages will be provided by the Auctioneer before the day of sale, to enable all desirous of inspecting this favored locality to do so. Lithographed plans may be obtained on ■ applying at the Auctioneer’s office, arid also particulars as to terms of payment, which are very liberal, may be learnt on applying to R. J.
