The traiEc from a very largo portion of the Manchester Block, and from nearly tho -whole of tho Wangauui Harbour Board! Endowment Block, must converge: upon this town, and meet the railway at this point, and- as, m addition to the road lines completed, other roads are now being rapidly opened in several directions from it, " Ashhurst " must be the central depot of an enormous timber tiade, there being more totara in its neighbourhood than anywhere' else in the Mah.-iwatu. This torn is the centre of the operations of the Corporation now, and must continue to be so for the nest three Or four years. Independently of its importance as : "a - convenient centre for a very large area, of country, " jlshhurst," from its proximity to the Gorge and to tho meeting, of the waters of the Pohauguia and Manawatu Eivers, is most interesting aud picturesque, and as has been frequently observed by travellers in the Uapier coach .when passing through, " It seems specially designed by nature for the site of an important town, Hl.—Thirty Suburban Sections of Hair combe, comprising 389 acres, the iscc- : tions varying in size from 5 to 40 acres.

It lies on the boundary of the town itself, within half a, mile of the railway station, and is opened by a good metalled road running right through it. The whole of this block is covered with good timber, either for sawing splitting or for firewood; ; and as this is the nearest' available bush to Bangitikei and Wahganui the timber on these sections has a. special value independently of the land, which bqth fop position and quality calf hardly be surpassed.
