The winners to produce their tickets as payment for the land, Manntahi is exactly midway between the two great centres of population in the Patea District (Carlyle and Hawcra), and is ten miles from each. It is situated on the Main Trunk Line of Road, is rich in soil, is surrounded by almost endless tract of country, which is admitted on all sides cannot be surpassed, possibly not equalled, in the Colony. Apart from its great centralistic character, Manntahi will be a great half-way Depot from the Port of Patea inwards, and for cattle, produce, and all the vast wealth of the territory lying beyond (outwards). The Waitara-Wanganui Railway is surveyed through it. In view of the Patea Harbor Works now in progress, the successful accomplishment of which is an admitted fact; in view of the land being sought after and eagerly grasped and occupied from day to day, the advantage of Town Land in this locality is obvious to all who are iu any way acquainted with it. About 4,000 acres of rich country, quite close to this Township, will he offered by the Government at auction during the early part of 1878, which will attract many settlors (more especially as it is surveyed in small lots), and cause an increased demand for Town Lands, with all the concomitant requirement of stores, hotels, shops, trades, &c., &c. The land is quite level, all cleared and grassed. Plans and full particulars may be obtained on application to Mr William Cowern, auctioneer, Carlyle, where also tickets may be obtained. Agencies have been established at New Plymouth, Wanganui, Wellington, and intervening townships. 62 Tri-weekly Coach between IPatea and Wanganui. W. IT.
