Land for Settlement, Waihao Downs.
We understand that the Canterbury Laud Purchase Board have been offered and approached with a view to purchasing the outlying parts and the Waihao Downs Estate. The Gomnissionors visited the Downs on Thursday, leaving Waimate by yesterday's express. The price fixed by the owner, Mr John Douglas, is reported to be a very moderate one, and likely to cause no difficulty. It has never before been quoted at the price.
