The Natives. , At the native meeting at Kihikiki to fiooiidfiv matters in connection with rail- Wshsnui stated that the ''" natives were about to prospect for gold in the interion Qnvernment Insurance Board. Mr G; Eisber, Mayor of Wellington, andjjtfr Shannon, who have been here for lut few days on business connected with the Government Insurance Board, left per steadier'last night for Taoranga. They intend to visit the Lake Country and go overland to Wellington. The Mayor of Auckland accompanies them to the Lakes. 'V* ™ V« : V ! * / defalcations. , late Mr James, Secretary of the ' l: ' of Governors of .the Auckland Col* lege and Grammar School, having been 'f .l * guaranteed** policy of LSOO in the Stan <]ardlnsaratfeeCompany, the Board has decided to make'b claim on the Company for the amount. The total misappropria tions were L 1,249. Ilis de ficiencyseems to have been occasioned by unlucky, speculations with ship diving. James’s accounts were to have been audited |y ipifMmaiL Audiioff L. Dutrien, a -flew'days'after his death, and now that the defalcations are known, it is believed that the dreadful anxiety under which -• —James must have labored had much to do with the attec& that caused his death. About two months before James’s death OQQ.ef the members of Waitemata County Council, of which James was Secretary, discovered there was a little irregularity in the Secretary’s cash, but it was recti ; !j jfied, and the accounts of the Council are -*.Joiuad to he correct; v; ; • < ■■■■»: vKatipo Bite.

Auctions. Preliminary Advertisement. THURSDAY, MARCH 12. TO BUILDERS, CONTRACTORS, AND OTHERS. IMPORTANT Clearing Sale OF A LARGE QUANTITY OF TIMBER AND OTHER BUILDING MATERIALS. MR T. BULLOCK has received in structions from A. Tapper, Esq. (in consequence of his intention to discontinue the Ashburton branch of bis business), to SELL BY PUBLIC AUCTION, On the Premises, East street, on the above date, The whole of his well-assorted Stock of TIMBER and other BUILDING MATERIALS, comprising— Scantlings, Floor-Boards, Match-Lining, Rusticated Mouldings, Doors, Sashes, &c., &0., Particulars of which will appear in a future advertisement. T. BULLOCK, 2 266 Auctioneer.



PRELIMINARY ANNOUNCEMENT. IMPORTANT SALE OF SUBUR BAN And other PROPERTY, Being a portion of that well-known and VALUABLE ESTATE, GROVE FARM. MR T. BULLOCK (in conjunction with Messrs Friedlander Bros.), has received instructions from Robert Wilkin, Esq., to offer by Public Auction, at the Arcade, on an early date, A portion of that well-know Property Grove Farm, which is now being divided into Suburban Building Allotments, fronting Carter’s ter [ race, Graham’s road and Grove street, and is known to contain some of the most valuable Subur ban Property that has ever been offered to the public in this dis trict, and the locality is everything that can be desired. A large pro portion of the frontages have a northern aspect; the Land is of first-class quality, and there are many magn.ficent Sites for Villa Residences. The road from the end of the bridge (Carter’s terrace) is now being fenced on both sides to the Boundary road leading to the main thoroughfare to Lone beach. There are also laid off a number of small holdings, facing Graham’s road, which will be found very suitable for paddocks for per ' sons sending their stock to the County Saleyards, or wishing to procure a small farm near town. Now that the Traffic Bridge is about to be erected, it will be found to be very convenient for persons having their busi ness in Ashburton, and desirous of resid ing in the country, as it is close t» the town; but the river being between, affords the same advantage as if they were living some distance away. SPECIAL NOTE. It is doubtful if there is a property in New Zealand offering the same.advantages as Grove Farm does. The Land is of the very best quality, and the position could not be improved, lying as it does about midway between the important town of Ashburton and the rising township of Tinwald. At each of these places con venient Saleyards have been erected, and the large attendance at the weekly mar kets proves that the settlers in the neigh borhood are fully alive to the advantages which these markets offer. 2 293 intending purchasers are respectfully invited to inspect the several lots to be offered previous to the sale.
