Murray The want of an establishment such as the one now proposed to be constituted has long been felt, not only in Otago, but throughout the Colony of New Zealand. The promoters of this Company in seeking the support of the general publi?, do so with the utmost confidence, as from their experience of the large profits accruing from the trades to be followed in the manufacture of the articles to be sold, they feel assured that the project will prove one not only of monetary benefit but of general good, as an additional loc i industry will be established which will, in a comparatively short time grow into a most extensive manufactory. The object of *the Company is to supply the Colony with locally-manufactured furniture of a quality to equal any yet imported from the Homo markets, A large number of our local youths will under the very best workmen to be obtained’ be employed, ’ Woods from foreign markets will be imported ; but the woods of New Zealand, many of which are eminentiy adapted for the manufacture of every description of furniture, will be largely use-1. The promoters wish to call special attention to the fact that the profits derived from the manufacture and sale cf the articles to be made are incredibly, large in some cases extendin'' to 100 per cent.; they therefore feel perfect confidence in assuring the public of the undoubted safety of the undertaking, and with economical and judicious management, very handsome returns on the capital invested may be confidently expected. P IO I> r oHod to take over at a valuation the steam factoiy °f H. J. Bacon in Cumberland stieet, which has power suitable for the Jw eS f ‘ T ir e prt T Sia will in the first instance form the manufactory. Centrally situated premises in the city will be established, where will be the show-rooms anl warehouses of the Cempany. 0118 Of the amount of valuation to be paid for the premises, the vendor agrees to take the onenaif in paid-up shares. It is needless to say more in favor of the undertaking; the matter is left in the hands of the public, who cannot fail to see the many advantages to be derived therefrom.
