The object of this Company is to provide tonnage suitable to the growing trade of the Port of Auckland, bo that the imports and exports of our city maybe as much as possible carried in iocaiiy owned vessels, and the shipping business carried on by a pcbbmt I.OCAI: COMPANY. The rates of freights current in this colony compare moßt favorably with those ruling |in neighboring colonies, and are as a rule sufficiently remunerative to leave a good profit, trading hence cit v er foreign or intercolonial. The acknowledged daily increasing eommermercial importance of Auckland is a source of gratificat:on, and the shipping trade, under skilful management, and with sufficient capital, would meet with speedy and great j development with many parts of the World •with which we are at present not in absolutely j direct communication. J The object of this Company is to provide ! vessels to trade in the directions already opened, and others which may from time to time offer inducements. . ; • .: | There is ample room for a well-organised new line between Auckland and London, i Liverpool and Glasgow, with New York, and with some of the larger centres of Continental European trades. Of course, the large and increasing export of balk and sawn timber will form an important adjunct. A trade with Tasmania, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, &c, being already established, could easily be continued with regularity, whilst the Newcastle and Grey mouth coal trades should be also provided for. There is a vast field in prospective for a good trade with A a erica, Mauritius, China, Manilla, Calcutta, The Cape, Noumea, and nnmerous foreign ports, with some of which, even at the present moment, a profitable idirect traders being carried on in a desultory manner, and which would find support from the new industries lately established here and in prospective establishments. The Company do not propose to limit themselves to running their own vessels, but will from time to time charter vessels when required, in the event of their own not being immediately available. Messrs Stone Bros., who have for some time carried on a good shipping business, and who have now fairly started a new London line, cossess the nucleus of a fleet suitable for commencing operations, and arrangements have been made to take over iheir vessels and the goodwill of their shipping business for the sum of thirty thousand six hundred und fifty pounds (£30,650), they taking half the amount in Company's shares. Their fleet, consisting of 8 vessels; with aggregate tonnage of 2642 tons, should be augmented as soon as possible, so that the business may be extended without delay, especially the London and American branches. The sesvic s of Mr C. B. Stone, as managing director, and the staff at present under his control, who are experienced in this line of business, have been secured to take office under the new Company. It is further proposed that the working expenses should be conducted on strictly economical principles, the expense of agencies and branches to be defrayed out of commissions on the actual freights earned by those branches. The proposed capital is set down at £150, 000, but as only a imall portion is required at present for the purchase of the existing fleet and contingent expenses, further capital will not be* .called up uritl vessels suitable for the London and other trades may offer for sale at easonable prices, until which time it is proposed to charter vessels as required to supplement the present fleet. It is proposed to invite all Auckland busi-ness-men and all who may have any interest in the trade of oar port to take Shares in this local Company, and to give the undertaking every possible support. Xhe:Company would thus be in a measure self-supporting, and strong enough to compete most successfully with any puts de or foreign company or foreign shipping. The Company could then not fail to be a credit to our port, and a most lucrative investment to Share-holders. The promoters having every confidence in the success, of fc!iß undertaking, now apppal to the public to ensure it. by subscribing freely I forShar b.
