V^jg^c Notices. PROSPECTUS OP THE SOUTHLAND SHIPPING* STEAM NAVIGATION COMPANY, LIMITED. Capital, £5000. Provisional Committee: Messrs John Ross, Jobn M'Pherson, Jabez Hay, WiUiam Cochran, InvercargiU; Mr John Morton, Oaklandsj Mr Matthew Instone, Riverton, with power to add to their number. Bankers : The Bank of Otrgo (Limited). Solicitor: Mr James Harvey. Secretary and Treasurer, pro tern. Mr James Har ray. Temporary Offices : Mr Harvey's Chambers, Esk-street, InvercargiU. oTHE object of this Company is the estabUshment of Direct Steam Communication between this Port and Dnnedin, and Riverton ; also, to open upon a trade between the Ports of Sonthland and the important Goldfields upon the West .Coast. The proximity of this Province to those Goldfields, aud the continuous and abundant supply of Produce acd Merchandise this Province is in a position to furnish, the preseofc irregular ard uncertain mode of communication, aU point to the desirability of a locaUy owned Steamer and other vessels. Country Settlers are speciaUy interested in this undertaking j they have Deen long debarred from competition in markets open to the Settlers of the other Provinces of New Zealand. It appears that no!; less than 150 tons of Merchandise per month bave 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 pubUc at large. The capital of £5000 wfll be allocated in shares of £5 each. Ten shillings per share wfll be payable on aUocation, the balance wfll be called up in caUs not exceeding £1 per share each caU, and at intervals of nofc lesss than one month. Applications for Shares may be made to any of the members of Provincial Committee or the Secretary. CLYDE BAKERY, HARRISVILLE,' CHEAP BREAD FOR INVERCARGILL. THOS.
