Prospectus live country, and that the valleys of (he Fiako, Waitoa, and Thames are largely settled and Btocked (and by the time the line is open may be expected to be fully so), looking alao to the scheme for the settlement of the Patetere country, the Provisional Directors think the comparison a fair one. The latest returns of the JiTaipara To Aaamutu Railway show a net revonue of £193 per mile per annum. This would give on the first section of 38 miles, a not revenue of £7334, or 7$ per cent, on £100,000. Estimating the revenue for tho first year's working at only one half of tho Kaiparu Wailoitolinc, 3jf per cent, will be obtained, I'jivin^o'ily 3| per irent. to be rr>ude up by ilie Di.-t.rie- Kato and Government contribution, or a little ovyr 2| per cent, and uudor 1 per cent, respectively. For these reasons, and i'or others too numerous io meniion, the Provisional Directors feel fully justified in recommending tho undertaking to the public as a work of national as well as looml importance. As an investment of capital, it will be directly remunerative, und they confidently expect the hearty support of the people of Auckland, both town and country, in a work which cannot fail, immediately on its completion, to add, as no one undertaking has added before, to the population, production, and the import and export trade of the whole Provincial District Tho Nominal Capital of the Company is proposer! to be fixed at £400,000, in 400,000 Shares of £1 each. The first issue of sliares to be 200,000 on which it is uot intended to call up more than 10s per Share, and if is anticipated that 5s per share will suffice as paid-up capital for the first section of the Eailway, because it is proposed to exeroise the borrowing powers conferred by the Acts. Ou the prosecution of the second section, it wiil be b question whether to is&ue more Shares, or make further calls on those already issued. The payments on the first issue to be Is on application ; and the balance by Calls of Is each, at intervals of not lees than two months. Applications for Shareß to be made to the Secretary, Shortland street, or through authorised ngents. 70,000 Shares have already been taken by 32 subscribers, in amounts not less than 1000. As it is anticipated that the whole of the Shares will be rapidy taken up, early applica tion will be necessary. Priority of applioation will be a factor in the allotment of snares by the Directory. No application will be received for less than 20 Shares. The following gentlemen are Agents authorised to receive applications for shares, viz.:— ■ Joseph Newman, Auckland^ Alex.
