Auctions PRELIMINARY NOTICE. HASTINGS. SALE OF TOWN, SUBURBAN, AND FARM LANDS. MR. M. R. MILLER has been instructed by Thomas Tanner, Esq., to offer for sale by auction, some time in August next, about— Eleven Hundred Acres of the Rich Plains adjoining the Township of Hastings. About eighty acres will be laid off in town allotments on each side of the Haatings-Have-lock-road, in continuation of and doubling the present township ; about five hundred acres in suburban allotments from two to twenty acres ; and the remainder in about fifty-acre blocks for small farms, on both sides of the railway line. Among the reserves will be those for a woollen manufactory, beetroot sugar manufactory, school, athenreum, and town hall. The land, which is now being surveyed under the Land Transfer Regulations, is of the very richest description. The sale will be on deferred payments, bearing a low rate of interest, which will put this limited and valuable land within the reach of small capitalists, and offers an opportunity for investment that is rarely to be met with. Further particulars in future advertisement. M. R. MILLER, Stock and Station Agent, Auctioneer. Napier, June 16,1879. LARGE LEASEHOLD ESTATE (Paetially Stocked) FOE SALE BY PUBLIC AUCTION, ON THURSDAY, 4th SEPTEMBER, At the Criterion Hotel, Napier. MB. M. R. MILLER has received instructions from Hugh McLellan, Esq., of Te Haroto, to sell by public auction, at the Criterion Hotel, Napier, on THURSDAY, 4th SEPTEMBER, The whole of his LEASEHOLD AND FREEHOLD ESTATE, Known as the Tabawbea and Tataba-o-Kina Blocks, together, containing about 130,000 ACRES LEASEHOLD, 13 years to run of lease, rent £240 per annum. 490 ACRES FREEHOLD, at Te Haroto, with out-station thereon, and cultivation paddocks. 15 ACRES TOWN AND SUBURBAN SECTIONS, in township of Tarawera. The whole with 10,000 sheep, about 8,000 of these being well-bred Merinos, the remainder cross-bred, Together with all Station Plant 18 Horses * 1 team of Bullocks, Dray, &c. There is a new wool-shed, capable of covering 400 sheep, and storing 100 bales of wool ; new sheep yards and home huts, and about 8000 ft. sawn timber ready toward building a new dwelling-house ; two out-station huts and yards ; four small paddocks, and two large do. About 10 miles of seven-wire fence has lately been erected ; this, with the numerous good natural boundaries and about 5 miles fencing material, now ready for erection, will divide the property into six sections. This property is situated about thirtyfive miles from Napier, the inland coach road passes right through its breadth,' and it has a frontage to the Mohaka River of about 20 miles, with numerous neverfailing streams, tributaries of that river, running through the property. On the two blocks there are about 60,000 acres of rich pastoral hills and downs, about 30,000 acres medium and light do., and the remainder bush. Besides the natural grass, of which there is a good amount, there are several hundred acres in different parts which have been sown with artificial grasses, and all doing well. At present the run would carry 15,000 sheep, and will yearly increase in carrying capacity by burning off the fern and stocking alone, while if outlay is undertaken in sowing artificial grasses, the property could be made in a very few years to carry 130,000 sheep, while the wool from this country is known as sound and healthy, and the lambings have been most satisfactory. If it is found desirable on the day of auction, the property may be put up in two lots, the Tatara-o-Kina Block with 40,000 acres and 50,000 sheep, and the Tarawera Block with 90,000 acres and the same number sheep and the homestead.
