UNRESERVED SALE. ~V/|~'LANDRESS, HEPBURN, AND CO., of Dunedin, have received instructions to sell by auction, at their Rooms, Manse-street* Dunedin, on WEDNESDAY, 17th APRIL, At 3 o'clock,

THE ESTATE OF TITIPUA VALLEY, C'onsistiug of f>27o acres, in con-venient-sized J-arms. Tlie land is almost all equal in quality to the productive Taieri or Edendale plains, and the remainder consists of rich sloping ridges of which nearly every acre is ploughable. There is a frontage of eight miles to the Titiptia stream, and the property is well sheltered. The whole estate will be put up to i auction in lots as originally conveyed by Government, and, in most cases, the purchaser will have the option of purchasing adjoining lots at the same price. The terms are unusually liberal, viz., 10s. cash per acre ; the balance in equal half-yearly payments extending over live years, bearing interest at L'S per cent, per annum. It will be seen that tliis sale affords a rare opportunity of securing excellent farms which, before they are paid for, will, in all probability, be worth many times their cost. Purchasers will have the benefit of deferred payments without the risk of forfeiture under the stringent regulations as to limited area, residence, and improvement, enforced under the Government system. The main road from Invereargill to Dunedin runs through the ostate, and there are two railway stations Edendale and Woodlands —in close proximity, tlie nearest station being four miles off, whilst the farthest point from a railway station is only seven mile 3. Sections 33 and 34, Block \ Lindliurst, will be put up together, to save fencing and to make the most of the water frontage, and the sections similarly situated will be put up in the same way. Although this land is about one hundred and seventeen miles distant by rail from Dunedin, it is only twenty-five to thirty miles south of Dunedin latitudinally. The Auctioneers earnestly recommend intending buyers to secure a map of this land, and place themselves in communication with Mr. M'lntosh, or Mr. Hay, so that arrangements may be made for its inspection ; and, to prevent disappointments, it would be well to make arrangements at least one week before the proposed day of inspection. Railway return tickets between Dunedin and Invereargill are available for six days. A large map of the land may be inspected at the Albion Hotel, Invereargill, and at the auctioneers 1 , Dunodin. Lithograph copies of the map may be had by applying to Mr. Hugh M'lntosh, or at the Albion Hotel, Invereargill, and the auctioneers', or Mr. A. R. Hay, at Dunedin. At the same time and place will be sold, for the same owner, 73? acres, being section 114, Forest Hill Hundred, 2SG and 327, Hokanui district. The land is within four miles of the Limestone Plain Township railway station, and is one of the richest parts of the Benmore Estate. The land is deep and rich, and capable of producing heavy crops of wheat—as has already been tested by part of it having been cropped. It •vfill be sold iii one or two Jots. The wash of intending purchasers will be consulted. Intending purchasers can be shown over the land by applying to Mr. Hugh M'lntosh, Spey-street, Invereargill, or Mr. A. It.
