NIAL JBANK BUILDINGS, QUEEN STREET, AUCKLAND.

The' Company is formed to purchase from Robert Grahamj'-Be^,- the Taluable Hot Springß, Baths, Hotel, and Estate, situated at the Waiwera, - within four hours by coach road, J or/ twenty-four miles by water, from the City of Auckland. Steamers run daily, and a '.mail coach to and from the? North ! Shore three timeß a week. The Waiwera Harbour being within the Hauraki Gulf, offers a delightful pleasure trip, of which many thousands avail themselves during the '•year. ...... , •-> The beauty of the' harbour and of the surrounding country, as well as .the curative ' properties of its /perennial.'and abounding thermal ; .mineral springs, are so widely known that comment is unnecessary. ' Seabathing, river bathing, and boating on the river which runs through the property, are among the many attractions of this unique estate. The climate is co mild and equable throughout the year .that tobacco and the orange and lemon grow luxuriantly.' Mr Graham has .spent large sums in developing the property since he acquired it nearly forty years ago. Having brought it into a paying condition, he wiaEe* io, retire and leave to 'ethers the 'further great improvement of which the .Waiwera property is now capable. The r roperfcy handed over to the Company will consist of the Hot Springs (which have yielded an inexhaustible supply of mineral water from fcima immemorial); the Hotel which is' doing a large and-, profitable .business, .and capable of acco'mtnodating from 90 to lODpersbrs'eomfortably ; the whole of the Harbour frontage, and 728 acres more or leas of adjacent country. The latter isadmirably adapted for a Township, Villa Kesidencea, and small Farms. It will become''Very valuable when a proper wharf is built by, the Government, which, it is hoped, will not be much longer delayed. A further block of 102 acres has been loaßed by. Mr Graham, ' from Mr Anderson, at a rental of £50 per annum, for 10 years, with a right to purchase for £1000.. This lease will also be handed over to the Company. 1 The property, with Furniture, Plant, Live Stock, etc., Bath-houses, Hotel, Cottages, Land, and the Lease above mentioned, i will be sold by Mr Graham to the Company for £23,000. Mr' Graham only requires one* half' of th'iß. amount to be paid within six months from allotment' of shares, and 'will 'accept folly paid up shares for th« balance of ' the purchase money. One-third of the shares i will be* apportioned to J and reserved for the 4! Southern Provincial* Districts of New Zealand,! and Sydney and Melbourne. The 1 prelimin- ' ary expenses inourred in the formation of the' Company will'also be paid-by' Mr Graham*. The Hotel' business yielded last; year a net profit of £1,622, to which sum it has steadily :grown_from^the suiall^.Deginningß of eight years ago, ? wfren accommodation for visitors , was, first attempted. It m propowd to > appropriate £7000 in ! enlarging the Hotel and other improvements,
