It is well known that the richest and most extensive tracts of agricultural land in the Province arecomprisedin the country of whioh the Kakanui is the natural outlet, and that the building stone known as OAMARU STONE, which will doubtless be an article of great and important trade, is found in immense quantity in the immediate locality, and can be shipped safely and directly onboard of vessels lying inside the river, thereby securing the stone from daSaage by salt water. Thotownahjp has been laid off in quar-ter-acre sections, with due regard toroads, and with - a broad esplanade fronting the sea and harbonr, and will supply a want long felt — that of A WATERINGr PLACE, . where salt water bathing can be safely and conv3niently had at all states of the tide. The aspect of the township is North-east, and the whole of the' land completely free' from the slightest danger from floods. Anticipating the convenience of easy shipment of produce, the settlers in the vicinity have already sown a considerable breadth in crop. Important Government works are now commenced for the furth6r;inaprovement of the harbour. i It is believed that prosefH;y in this township offers a rare, opportunity for investment, and thst it will at no distant date be exceedingly valuable. Lithograph plans can be had of the Auctioneers ; or from Mr, H. R. Steaven•son," Oamaru. For further particulars, applylio GILLIES and STREET, Atictioneers and I^and Agents.
