As soen as tbo block is decided upon, and the preliminaries arranged, it will be surveyed into sections of limited area and apportioned, by lot or otherwise, according to rules to be agreed upon at a general meeting of the subscribing members of tho proposed Association in selections of a minimum value of One Hundred Pounds (£100) sterling, and a maximum value of (£400) sterling. The Provisional Directors will endeavor to induce the Government to grant to members of the Association such modifications of the land on deferred-payment clauses of the Land Act, 1877, as may facilitate occupation by hona fide selAlers and subscribers without necessitating stiicfc compliance with the present provisions of those clauses. The Provisional Directors will also endeavor to make provision for :ample reserves for religious, educational, recreation, and public health purposes, as suggested by the Minister of Lands to the deputation which lately waited upon the Government with the view of bringing this scheme, under their notice and favorable consideration. The payments are to be computed on some well-defined, liberal, and easily-understood system of deferred payments, to be made by instalments extending over a period of, say not less than ten (10) years. Each subscribing member will be* required to deposit a sum equal to ten pere(:ntuin of the total value of the share of lunci be applies for before his application can be entertained, and a further payment of two* percentiim per month on said total value until such time as the block to be applied for is acquired by the Association, and possession can be given to applicants, or until such time as tho Association shall make arrangements with the Government for allotting land to the subscribers, provided always that such monthly payments of two percent;um do not extend to a further period than air months from date of application. All monies received are to be paid into the Colonial Bank of Hew Zealand to the Association's account, to be opened in the name of the Trustees, on fixed deposit bearing interest, and no trithdrawals or payments to be made by cheque against such account without the authority and signature of the Treasurer, one of the Trustees, and three Directors being fire t obtained. A gents, or Actictg-Directors, for the Association will also be appointed in all the centres of population throughout the provincial district as soori as practicable. As soon as, in the opinion of the Provisional Directory, a sufficient number of shares are applied for, a general meeting of subscribing members will be called for the purpose of passing ;ind adopting permanent rules and by-laws or sirticlee of Association for the future guidance, of the Association, and also for the electirm of a permanent Board of Directors and Management. If the Pro visional Directors arc unable to make satisfactory arrangements with tbo Government, .or from any other cause they find that tb.ey are unable to carry out the scheme suggested by this prospectus, they may return, to each subscriber the amount of his subscription with accrued interest, lets his sharo of tho expenses or liabilities then incurred.. As it is of tho utmost importance and imperatively necessary that no time should be lost in organising the business of the Association, the Provisional Directory therefore stipulate that the list of subscribing members should be finally closed not later than the 31st Junuary, 1880.
