Bankehs : The National Bank of New Zealand. j 1 X HE objects of the Company are to provide by local enterprise and capital one or more (in accordance with the growth of the district) steam vessels to perform our own coasting trade, with suitable accommodation for tho passenger traffic. It is intended that the whole of the capital should be subscribed in the immediate neighborhood of Invorcargill and adjoining localities, including Eiverton, Oampbellfcown, Queenstown, Nokomai, Switzers, and Mataura districts, the intention being to trade between the three first named ports and Duuedin. The promoters have been induced to float this Company, being alive to the fact that during the last twelve months the steamers Storm Bird and j Wallabi have been running regularly in our coasting trade, carrying our own freights to and fro, as also passengers belonging to and doing business in tbe immediate district, and now strongly urge the residents of the district to provide for and retain the profit of their own trade. Already the project having been brought before the mercantile interest and capitalists of Invercargill at a public meeting, the whole of those interested ia the district have intimated their intention of support by unanimous resolution. Ihe success which has already attended other Local Steam Shipping Companies in this and the neighboring colonies (it being an indispensable adjunct to trade and commerce), combined with increasingdirect shipments from home, consequent upon late alterations in the tariff, and the rapid strides the export timber trade is making, support the promoters in the confidence of unqualified success. The wool and grain growers are particularly invited to co-operate — the former as giving them extra opportunities to plase their staple on board the first ships loading for London, and the latter enabling them of en to secure the best market from which formerly they have been debarred. Until the Directors see the necessity of another boat (or extending their operations beyond those now contemplated) it ia not intended to call up mure than forty shillings per share in payments as follows : — Five shillings on application; five shillings on allotment; and the remainder at intervals of not less than three months — in calls of ten shillings each. Applications for shares, which the Directors are desirous should be diffused over as large a number of residents as possible in the districts previously referred to, can be made to.
