Prospectus tive country, and that the valleys of t he Piako, Waitoa, and Thames are largely settled and stocked, (and, by. tho. time tho line is open may be expected to bo fully so), looking also to the ackenio for the.settlement of the Pa'tetore country, the Provisional Directors think the comparison a fair one. Tho latest returns of the Knipara Te Awamutu Railway show a net revenue of £193 pur mile per annum. This would give on the first scotion of 38 milce, a net revenue of £7334, or 7$ per.."cent; on £: 00,000. Estimating the revenue/for tho first yeur's working at only one half of the Kaipara Waikutoline, 3| per cent, will be oblained.'Wvingon'y 3^ per cent, to be ruado up by the District. Rate and Government cr-ii'iibwlion, or a little over 2i per cent, and unrtar 1 pw cent, respectively. For tlipse reasons, and for others too -..numerous 1o men) ion, the ProTifionul Director* feel fully justified in recommending the undertaking to the millio as a work of national as well as locil importance. As an investment of capital, it will be directly remunerative, hi:<l they confidently expect the bearfy support of the people of Auckland, boSh 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. The Nominal Capital of the Company is proposed to be fixed at £400,000, in 400,000 Shares of £1 each. The first issue of s'-aros to be 200,000 on which it is liot intended to call up moie than 10s per Share, and it is anticipated that 5s per glare will suffice as paid-up capital for the fir»t section of tho Railway, because it is proposed to exercise the borrowing powers conferred by the Acts. On tho prosecution of the second section, it will be a question whether to iseue more Sharps, or make further calis 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 less than two months. Applications for Shores to be in;ide to tlie Secretary, Shortland Btreet, or through authorised agents. 70,000 Share* iiave 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 upplica tion will be necessary. Priority of application .will be a factor in the allotment of shares by the Directory. No application will be received for less than 20 Share*. The following gentlemen are Agents authorised to receive applications for shares, viz.:—.
