DUNCAN has much pleasure in announcing that ho is instructed by Samuel Revans, Esq., to sell by publio'auetion, on Tuesday, 22nd October, at his salerooms, Panama-street, Wellington— The whole of the important Township of WOODSIDE. Plans will be ready for delivery on Wednesday Oth instant. Woodside has the great Northern lino of railway running through the town, and a station will be fixed here for communicating with the district and Greytown. Woodside is considerably above the sea level, commanding a view of the whole of the Valley. It is about two miles beyond the Tanherenikau River, and its northerly boundary is on the Waiohine River. It has on the western side hills, the rain from which keeps the country in its immediate locality always well supplied with moisture, whilst the elevation of the site affords excellent drainage. Towards the east, the hills are about seven miles distant, and the site thus possesses the great advantage of early sunrise. Severe winds are never, or very seldom, felt; they follow the gullies and river beds. It maybe doubted if there be a more healthy locality to be found in the colony. Immediately on the other side of the Waiohiue River there are several sawmills, which can easily supply Woodside with timber for building and for fencing purposes. The railroad bridge, which crosses the river, is also to be constructed for the use of general traffic, and will afford at all times convenient communication with the Matarawa agricultural country. The road between Greytown and Woodside will have a bridge, under which the railway will pass, and therefore no danger at any moment will attend crossing the railway to Underhill-road, leading to Featherston and up the Valley. The site of Woodside is all available, is high above flood water. HCoal was found in the Waiohine River before it was probable any was ever brought to the Valley, and has again been found therein. It is known that there is a seam near the Tauherinikau, a sample of which has been tested in Wellington. There is also a large quantity of quartz in the Waiohine, and a correspondent in the N. Z. Mail lately stated that he had in his possession a quartz specimen, with gold in it, got from this river. No private sales will be made before the auction takes place. Already a great demand exists from residents and those lately engaged as workmen in the district. The Township of Woodside is destined to become one of much importance, and that in a very brief space of time. The Auctioneer earnestly advises all visitors to Featherston on the opening of the railway to take a ride and inspect the site, taking eare at the same time to provide themselves with a lithographed plan from the auctioneer’s office.
