THE MANGATAINOKE BLOCK.
A pleasing piece of news to intending settlers will be found in our telegraphic column. The Native Land Court, nt present sitting nt Palmerston North, has awarded to the Government 42,000 acres out of the 60,000 acres of the Mangatainoke Block in the Forty-Mile Bush, the former figure representing the shares which have been bought from individual natives. The land in the Block is the very pick of the Forlv-Mile Bush, and numbers of people willing to invest in land, knowing its quality, have held back, in the hope that it would be opened at an early date. A good denl of surveying has already been curried out on the Block, only sectional work remaining, so that after a delay extending over twelve years, there is every prospect of the land lifting put in (ho market at an early date.
