It£s proposed to form the above company for the purpose of purchasing all the promoters’ rights to the Dobson’s Creek Water Race. The detail survey and estimates of the racejhave been carefully completed by competent and experienced surveyors, and their reports stale that by the construction of the race and a reservoir a constant supply of ten Government heads can be depended upon all the year round, which can be brought on to Hayes’s and Quinn’s terraces sufficiency high to be used either [for sluicing or washing paddocks. The Provisional .Directors propose, before registering the company, to have the levels checked by E. J: Lord, Esq, who will also prepare the specifications forthe works. There will be an immediate return from the Race after the construction of the first mile and a-balf or two miles, as three good tributaries arh intersected within that distance. This company will have a gt eat advantage in bringing in water to Hayes’s and Quinn’s Terraces, i‘t being the only water that, can be brought in Inch 'enough at anything like a reasonable cost. Tho terraces have been proved pavabl© ior a mile auda-half, and at the present lime there are over fifty paddocks erected, besides several sluicing claims, which' the Race would c’ommand.

Tins .new field ig now so thoroughly and extensively developed that for years to com o the supply of water that will bo at tlie command of the company must ensure a largo revenue.
