ME. E. J. DUNOAN has much pleasure in announcing that he is instructed by Samuel Revans, Esq., to sell by public auction, ; on Tuesday, 22nd October, at his salerooms, 1 Panama-street, Wellington—--1 ,The whole of the important Township of WOODSIUE. Plans will be ready for delivery on Wednesday 9th instant. % "" Woodside has the great Northern lino of railway running through the town, and a station will be fixed here tor communicating with the district and Greytown. Woodside is considerably above the sea level, commanding a view of the whole of tho ; Valley. It is about two miles beyond the . Tauherenikau 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 1 drainage. Towards the east, the bills are about seven 1 miles distant, and the site thus possesses tho great advantage of early sunrise. Severe winds 1 are never, or very seldom, felt; they follow the gullies and river beds. It may be doubted if there be a more healthy locality to be found in the colony. Immediately on the other side of the Waiohine River there ore 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 bo 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. Coal was found in the Waiohine River before it was probable any was over brought to the Valley, and has again been found therein. It is known that there is a seam near the Tauheriuikau, 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 bo made before the auction takes place. Already a great demand exists from residents and those lately engaged as workmen in tho district. Tho 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 oaro at the same time to provide themselves with a lithographed plan from tho auctioneer’s office. Terms will be liberal. FRIDAY, 20th OCTOBER. MASTERTON TOWN AND SUBURBAN LANDS. 'll. E. J. DUNCAN is favored with in- . structions from R. and J.
