** Public Notices. PEOSPECEUS OF THE SOUTHLAND SHIPPING & STEAM NAVIGATION COMPANY, LIMITED. Capital, £5000. Provisional Committee : ; Messrs John Ross, John M-Pberson, Jabez Hay, 1 WilUam Cochran, Invercargill; Mr John Morton, Oaklands; Mr Matthew Instone, Riverton, with power to add to the?> number. Bankers : Tbe Bank of Otrgo (Limited). Sohcitor : Mr James Harvey. Secretary and Treasur**, pro tern. Mr James Harvey. Temporary Offices : Mr Harvey's Chambers, Esk-street, InvercargiU. THE' object of this Company is the establishment of Direct Steam Communication between this Port and Dnnedin, and Riverton ; also, to open upon a trade between the Ports of Sontblaud and the important Goldfields upon the West Coast. Tbe proximity of this Province to those Go T dfields, and the continuous and abundant supply of Produce and Merchandise this Province is in a position to furnisi, the present irregular and uncertain mode of communication, all point to the desirability of aTlocally owned Steamer and other vessels. Country Settlers are specially interested in this undertaking ; they have been long debarred from competition in marlets open to the Settlers of the other Provinces of ITeW Zealand. It appears that not less than 150 tons of Merchandise per month have been imported into this Province from Dunedin, the freight upon which has been mostly earned by Vessels owned in neighboring Provinces. Promises of support to a considerable amount being given by merchants, settlers, and tradesmen of this Province, there is every prospect of this undertaking becoming both a success and a benefit to the public at large. The capital of £5000 will be allocated in shares of £5 each. Ten shillings per share wttl be payable on allocation, the balance will be caUed up in calls not exceeding £1 per share each call, and at intervals of not lesss than one month. AppUcations for Shares may be made to any of the members of Provincial Committee or the Secretary. NOTICE.
