Prospectus tive country, and that the valleys of the Piako, i Waitoa, and Thames are largely settled and stocked (and by the time the line is open may be expected to bo fully so), looking also lo the scheme for the settlement of the Patetere country, the Provisional Directors think the comparison a fair one. The latest returns of. the Kaipara Te Awamutu Railway show a net revenue of £193 per mile per annum. This would give on the first section of 38 miles, a net revenue of £7334, or 7i per cent, on £100,000.. Estimating the revenue for the first year's working at only one half of the Kaipara Waikuloline, 3| per cent, will bo obtained, living only 3J per cent. to be made up by «lie District Kate and Government contribution, or a little over 2J per cent, and under 1 per cent, respectively. For these reusons, and for others too numerous lo mention, the Provisional Directors feel fully justified in recommending the undertaking to the public as a work of national as well as local importance. As an investment of Capital, it will be directly remunerative, in d 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 I'ietrict. . " ; The Nominal Capital of the Company is proposei to be fixed at £400,000, in 400,000 Shares of £1 each. The first isßue of shares to be 200,000 on which it is i.ot intended to call up tnoie than 10s per Share, and it is anticipated that 5s per share wiil suffice as paid-up capital for the first section of the Railway, because it is proposed to exercise the borrowing powers conferred by the Acts. On the prosecution of the second section, it will be a question whether to issue 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 less than two month?. Applications for Shares to be made to the Secretary, Shortland street, or through authorised agents. ■'.'.'■■ 70,000 Shares have already been taken by 32 subscribers, in amounts not less than 1000.
