AUCKLAND
This day,
The Union Steamship Company have purchased the steamer Southern Cross, with goodwill and subsidy, for £2,500, and the company will immediately take up the Fiji trade. The Southern Cross had been offered to the new Auckland Steamship Company, and while they hesitated on account of the Southern Cross being unsuited to the trade, the Union Company closed. It is beliered however, the Auckland Company will enter into competition with a first class steamer specially built, and will also compete in the Australian trade.
