COMMERCIAL.
m D. Macrorie, auctioneer, reports :— The stamp of backs offered at Saturday's sale I in the yards was above the average of most | ■weeks, and yet one lot only changed hands at ] £11. I was offered and refused £40 for a very superior draught gelding. The drays (tip and farmers), ar.vil. &c, as also the dairy cows, were entirely neglected, but a few miscellaneous lots in the rooms were fairly competed for. I held a sale ; of school books in the ever ing, but the prices were not sufficiently encouraging to persevere with the sale. I sold during the week by private treaty the freehold of half acre section, Dee and leven Streetß, on which is erected the Prince of Wales hotel, and private dwelling house, for the sum of sixteen hundred pounds. Invercargill, 19th February, 1872.
