(Agents for Invercargill.* Times 0/J?ce,Tay street, IN announcing tbe establishment of a Journal t* represent the - interests of the Westert: District of the Province of Southland, its pro . meters would take this epportunity for briefly ex plaining 4 the objects they have in view, togethei with tbe course of action they propose to adopt. It _wdl be tbeir aim toco-operate with the tw« local-journals which have already, been so success. : ful iirforwarding the development of the natura! * % resources of the Province, and in advancing its claims to a fair and equitable measure of Legislative cons'deration, without Which .3s "materia} advancement never can^attain, tothepemianeu' footing its numerous capabilities are so well adap* '[ ted to secure. Afc the same time, such co-operation will always be conducted with a primary regard to , , fche Western Dictrict of the Province. The Harbor of Riverton has a geographical . position that constitutes it the first port of'cail in the direct line of communication between Victoria and the 'other produce markets- of the Southern.. Hemisphere; this fact will -receive the special • attention ofthe " Riverton Times," and no effort will be lost to impress upon the P**ovincial Govern- . ment tbe. necessity tbat exists for having it im? . mediately placed upon a footing that will recommend it to shippers generally as a port of discharge, i *■* Tne advantages Riverton possesses as affording the shortest and easiest access to the Wakatip v goldfields — which have proved the richest yet discovered— will' be brought prominently forward, so that every inducement will be afforded for Rivertoi and the Wcs*-«rn District generally .deriving ths full extent of advantage to which its relationship to the Wakatip District entitles i' to sustain. * y As it appears to be the current belief that th« lead of' the gold follows* in the- direction of 'th« Western boundary of the Province— while thit'" Journal will be careful to lend every aid to the furtherance of tbe pastoral and agricultural interests, it will not fail to be watchful of every movement, whether Provincial or "otherwise, that may have for its object the development of the mineral resources. The latest local, commercial, trade reports .and -> price lists issued by the Home or other colonial l * markets, will be carefully selected, so that every opportunity will be takoh advantage of for placing the merchants of this district in a position to compete witb traders in other parts of the Province'as , well as those located in neighboring Provinces. "" - The Proprietors of tbe Riverton Times .need not raanind those to whom they must- look -for o nteaance and support, that the carrying' out i f their object efficiently will eritnil a very large expenditure, and that, therefore, they expect advantage will be taken <f their advertising . -^ columns to an extent that will warrant them .prosecufcing tbeir endeavors to a successful issue. .. 7v« At the same time, the Proprietors would, beg leave to call the attention of tho Merchants .and . ' Traders of Invercargill and other places to tho favorable medium this journal will afford tor '- opening up a connection with the residents of tli6 Western District of the Province. The first issue of the Riverton Times will b~ published on Saturday, tho 2nd Jauuary, 1864, and weekly thereafter till further notice. R. OSBORNE CARRICK & CO., ; Proprietors.
