This company is projected by gentlemen largely interested in the New Zealand trade, under the conviction that the existing communication is inadequate for the work. The promoters are convinced that the grow-' ing requirements of the trade call urgently for' additional steam communication.; , They confidently believe, and are assured by many, of the pirincipar mercantile firms here and in New Zealand, that an important expansion of the traffic will certainly follow the commencement of the company’s operations. ,' The promoters are already in possession of particulars and prices obtained from some of the, first ship .builders in Great .Britainj of. steamers best suited for the trade with; New. Zealand, New Caledonia, the Fiji Islands, &o. Such steamers may, be ; briefly described as vessels of rdarge, capacity pn such a draft of water as will enable them, to .take their cargoes to and from the whary.es,-with accommodation for about 200 first and secondj-class passengers, and steaming fully twelve knots an hour, with the latest improved compound engines; for economising fuel and space. ; i,... The i promoters t have, great confidence in placing the : present enterprise .before -the public, based on the success of t ,the large and,increasing nqmb er : 0 f , Bteal n e _ r ? trading on our coasts, thefr .being nowi registered as belonging ;to the port of Melbourne , sixtyone steam vessels of .all. descriptions, which have grown out of the 1 earnings" of twelve steamers of all sorts belonging to the port-in 1853, and'the increase 7 of vessels employed in the 1 New Zealand trade is perhaps more marked than any other. . .. - - 7-—; - - - 'lt is desired ‘ furthfet to' direct Attention to the,following facts, tending to the advantage of the prdjeotj viz.:—The stimulus to'tradehy : the established' telegraphic ’ communication between;'the two countries.’ “.The 1 greater facilities for development of the large'grain producing interest, manifest in the growing trade of damarh and Timarii, as well as the more southern parts of the' Middle Island, .for which produce Victoria cah find a permanent market. 'lffieprospec.tof an early reviaionpf the Yictoria,n tariff in the interests of trade "and commerce. > The -euratiye properties of the,Hot Spripgspf New ' Ze’alahi as tending -to promote an i increase of visitors hi quest of Health. . And,the large number of steamera and passenger ships from Europe, India, ' China, and America j having their termini in Australian ports, carry- ! ing: an 1 increasing number of, passengers for or from New Zealand, y All which growing interests will tend to the advantage of the new company.' ;, V .1 I? U V', . Following the plan of late adopted m England by recently-formed . shipping. companies, it is proposed that, ( ttm, business shall be managed in.MelbWhe.'as an agency, under the control oitho directory, thus, avoiding (the outlay for a large and.costly establishment. r jj Gentlemen have lately visited New Zealand in the interest of the. proposed company,.jThey met/with a most'cordial reception,, received numerous subscriptions, and promises of. support among many sections of the .community. In fact, New Zealand and Melbourne interests are thus so extensively enlisted ih the company, , aa shareholders, and otherwise, that the new line of steamers’ cabinet fail to obtain that ample support which will 'render the enter: prise a success; .-i . • -; In conclusion, ,the .prompters would invite intending investors to make prompt applications for shares, to enable them to contract for fhe. building of the new, ships whife the .cost of construction -rules low, as at the present time.' Thorp are no special advantages offered to any shareholders, and .therefore: no;promqters* interests, to be paid., . If no allotment is made, the deposit money, will be returned in.full. . Forms of application and all information are obtainable from the. companyV brokers, Melbourne, who will receive applications accompanied by a deposit of £1 per share, and from the provisional directors or their appointees in New Zealand, and at the branches of the Bank of New Zealand. ; _ , ■ , ~Tha; articles ,of association, when, prepared, will be open for inspection at flic branches of the Bank of Now Zealand .in New Zealand, and at ;tbe brokers’. in Melbourne, ...
