It'is 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 race have been carefully completed by competent and experienced surveyors, and their reports state 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 Qninn's terraces sufficiently 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 for the works. There will be an immediate return from the Race after the construction of the first mile and a-half or two miles, as three good tributaries are iutersected within that distance. This company will have a great advantage in bringing in water to Hayes's and Quinn's Terraces, it being the only water that can be brought in high enough at anything like a reasonable cost. The terraces have been proved payable for a mile and a-half, and at the present time there are over fifty paddocks erected, besides several sluicing claims, which the Race would command. This new field is now so thoroughly and extensively developed that for years to come the supply of water that will be at the command of the company must ensure a large revenue. tions immediately after receiving Mr Lord's report. Applications for shares will be received by the broker to the company up to SATURDAY, the 18th AUGUST, 1877, at 8 p.m. As there are only a limited number of shares to be applied for early application is necessary as priority of application will be considered in alloting the shares.
