' fc Th r c Wn^ of a Sllifcablß 8te »mer to do the increasing trade of the Patea district with othet ports of the Colony will be generally admitted, the steamer at present ruonin* between Wanganui ani Patea being unsuitable for stock-carrying purposes ; and in order to supply the markets on the W*st Coast of the South Island, it is necessary that a suitable boat ahould ba obtained for thit purpose, also to convey goods from Wellington, Nelson, and other ports direct, instead of the present uncertain means of transit via Wanganui, which also adds considerably to the co«t of the goods obtained through that soutte. The promoters of the Company, in fixing the above-mentioned rate of payments cf calls consider that it should meet with the hearty support of the settlers (who will rea.ly be the principal gainers by hiving a means of conveyance to carry away their surplus stock and Dro;duce to a profitable market) In the event of the whole oE the shares being applied for the promoters do not consider that it will be necesswy to call up the whole of the capital -' but ehould be necessary to «»U the who'e of it up, the paymeut* will extend over a period 'of ac least, seven mooitn. which vhould make it convenient for every one interested to t «ke even a. small interest in the ( ompany. , In having the share i distributed in small lots, it would tend to the success of the Company, jnasrauch as every individual shareholder would be likely to exert himself in promotine the welfare of th* Company, by using the Company's boat for any importation or exportation at nis disposal , ' Tie promoters of the Company have already obtained an assurance of a grant of £300 per annnm from thi Government, us a subsidy in aid of. the boat, in conside-ation ot the steamer : towing suiting vessels inwards and outwards of the Patea river at a fixed rate This sum alone will considerably assist in p»yin<r the workin? expenses of the boat A number of the sharf a will be offered to the public in Nelson, Wanganui West Coaafi and Wellington, to which po-ts it i<» intended the vessel shall trade, but the Company's head quarters will be at Pa-ea. and be managed by a local directory.
