I ~N announcing the forthcoming issue of a NewsX paper, designed to represent the ir tcreats and to become the organ of the important dis riet from which its name is taken, tre proprietors would guard themselves from promising too largely in the outset of their experiment. Aware of the ardueus nature of their undertaking, and the amount of time and labor necessary to produce a journal, complete in its details, and worthy of the confidence of the public, they would prefer relying on the indulgence of their readers, for some short time, to making promises difficult of fulfilment. The main object, however, of the proprietors may be briefly stated. — In the conduct of the Wakatip Mail their paramount care will be to render^ it especially useful and indispensable to the mining community, by faithfully and diligently collecting and publishing all facts bearing on their interest, and advocating all such measures as may appear conducive to the development of this branch of in- I dustry. _ I As a chief means of following out this purpose with effect, the proprietors will establish a system of reliable correspondence, not only throughout New Zealand, but also with the sister colonies. Intelligence of the markets — prices current of commodities, cartage, and all matters pertaining to trade, will be faithfully compiled for the immediate benefit of those merchants and storekeepers who are located on, or in connection with, the gold fields of this district. Whilst, therefore, mining and commercial matters shall be the chief object of the Wakatip Mail, the proprietors promise that the higher aims of journalism shall not be neglected, and that their earnest advocacy will be at all timea ready in the support of such measures as may appear likely to contribute to the social well being, and moral and political progress of the people. Arrangements will be made to publish special editions, giving a comprehensive abstract of English and American news on arrival of the English Mail, irrespective of the ordinary issues of this journal ; ari^, -finally, nothing shall be left undone j which can impart additional interest or advantage to the subscribers. With these few assurances the proprietors will rest content; only expecting the confidence of the public in proportion as their exertions shall merit it ; and as one of the main elements of support that can be accorded by the public is that of advertising, the proprietors hope that the public will avail themselves, to a liberal extent, of the advan-, tages now offered for this purpose, through the columns of The Wakatip MaiLi The First Number will be issued on Saturday May 2nd, 1863.
