As soen as the 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 rule* to be agreed upon at a general meeting of the sub* scribisg members of the proposed Association in selections of a minimum value of One Hundred Poutads (£100) starling, and • maximum value of (£400) sterling. The Pro/isional Directors will endeavor to > induce the Government to grant to members , of the issociation such, modifications of the s land on deferred-payment clauses' of the .' Land Act, 1877, as may facilitate occupation by bona fide settlers and subscribers without necessitating strict, compliance with the ore- , sent provisions of those clauses. The.Pro* visional 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 notke and favorable consideration. The payments are to be computed on some well-defined, liberal, and easily-understood system of deferred payments, to bs> made by instalments extending over a period of, say not less than ten (10) years. Each subscribe ing member will be required to. deposit aioea , equal to ten percentum of the total fain* of the share of iand he applies 'for bcfart hie application can be entertained, and afjsithar payment of two percentum per month oa said total value antit i«oh time «» the bh»dtto be applied for is acquired by the Assoei». ... tion, and possession *eaa be given to applicants, or until such time as the Aseomation shall make arrangements with the Govern* ment for allotting laud to f he subscribers, 'provided always that suoh monthly .payments 'of two percentum, do not extend to a further period than six months from date of application. .-. />" f All monies received are to be paid into the Colonial Bank of Itypr Zealand to the Association's account, to be opened in the name , of the Trustees, on fixed deposit'tearing interest, and no withdrawals or payment*,to' be made by cheque against, such acoount without the authority add signature of the Treasurer, one of the Trustees, and three Directors being first obtained; Agents, or Acting-Directors, for the Association will also be appointed, in all the centres of population throughout.the provincial district as soon 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 and adopting permanent rules and by-laws or article? of Association for the future guidance of the Association', ancF also for the election of a permanent Board, of Directors and Management. If the Provisional Directors are unabl_e to make satisfactory arrangements with the Government, or from any other cause; they find that they are unable to carry out the scheme suggested by this prospectus,' they inayireturato each subscriber the amoubt of. his subscription with accrued interest, less his share of the expenses or liabilities, then ' incurred. • ( As it is of the utmost! importance and im- ; peratively necessary that no time should be • lost in organising the business of the Association, the Provisional Directory therefore * stipulate that the list of subscribing, mem* bers should be finally closed not later than the 31st January, 1880. . , - Terms of proposal and application for shares and other information connected with the Association may be procured from ..the Provisional Directors, the Secreturjr pro tern, or at the Wellington Working* MenVClub, Lambton Quay. , _ Applications, with amount of deposit* tp * be lodged with the Colonial Bank of New , Zealand, Wellington. , WILLIAM WYLIE, Secretary.
