Prospeotus tivo country, and that the valleys of the Piako, Waitoa, and Thames are largely settled and stocked (and by the time the. line is open may be expeoted to be fully so), looking al-so to 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 7£ per cent, on £100,000. Estimating the revenue for the first year's working at only one half of tho Eaipara Waikatoline, 3§ per cent, will be obtained, Having only 3^ percent, to be made np by. the District Kute and Government contribution, or a little over 2J per cent, and under 1 per cent, respectively. For these reasons, and for. others too numerous to mention, the ProTinional Directors feel fully justified in recommending tho undertaking to the public as a work of national as well as local importance. As an investment of capital, it will be directly remunerative, ard 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. 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 shares to be 200,000 on which it is iiot intended to call up more tban 10s per Share, and it is anticipated that 5s per share will 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 1b each, at intervals of not IeBB than two months. 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 Icbs 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 application will be a factor in the allotment of shares 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. Saunders, Auckland Chas. Alexander, Auckland - , ' Samuel Tickers,' Auckland J*.
