The foncing is all thoroughly substantial, and there are over 3000 aoreß ploughed on various parts of tho portion to be sold. All has been sown with tho exception, of a few Bmallor blocks, which will be ready for sowing this season. The Risßington homestead block has many valuable improvements, cultivation paddocks, &c, a capital country seat, besides containing Mount M'Noill, one of tho best grazing hills in Hawke's Bay, Mount Cameron is equally well known, being another block. Tho Ardlusse Downs aro all fit for the plough. Gentle Annie and Smith field Downs Blocks contain also a largo oxtcnt of lands ploughed and laid down in grass, but it is not within the limit of an advertisement to describe each of the blocks that will bo sold.

The cutting-up of this estate will be of immense advantage to this district, the present owners having consented to this course as a step towards realising on the whole of this property, rendered neoee : my by the death of one of the partners. Although Bissington Kstate is so wellknown locally, it is not out of place to state that it commences about 18 mileß weat from Napier. The lands, though varied in feature, arc rich and on limestone formation, abundantly watered by springs and over-running streams. The whole freehold csmprises about 74,000 acres, on which, though largo sums have been expended in improvements, instructions aro to put such avery moderate reserve on the portions offered (which include the 'ongest improved lands) as must ensure sale. Thero aro about 1000 cattle and 90,000 cheep and lambs now on the estate, the greater portion of which will bo sold after the land sale, and will enablo buyers to stock readily.
