The object of this Company! is !o provide tonnage suitable to the growing - trarie oS tlio Port of Auckland, so that the imposts and exports of our city may be as much as possible carried in locally owned vessels, , and the shipping business carried on by a poREIiY LOCAL COMPANY. The rates of freights current in this colony, compare $Sbst favourably with those ruling in neighbouring , colonies, and are as a rule sufficiently remunerative to : . leave a good profit, trading henc>j cither foreign or , intercolonial. The acknowledged daily increasing commercial importance of Auckland is a source of gratification, and the shipping trade, under skilful jwaiiag-enient and wifla ' sufficient capital,- would meet wiiii speedy and great- , ; development with many parts of the World with which. we are at present not in absolutely direct communication. ■ The object of this Company is to provide vessels to trade in the directions • already opened, and others which may from time to time otfor inducements. • ,'■ ' There is ample room for ;i well-orff.inised new line ' between Auckland aud London. Li > erpool and Glasgow, with Now -York, and with some of tKe larger centres of Continental European trade. Of course, the largeand increasing export of hfllk and sawn timber will • . form an important adjunct-. A trade with Tasmania, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide. &c, being already., established, could easily ■n^ continued with regularity.. . i whilst the Newcastle and Grey mo rib. coal trades should be also provided for. • •,.'-.'" There is a vast| field in prospective for a good trade ■ with America, Mauritius, China, Mannila, Calcuttai theCape, Noumea, and numerous foreign ports, with, some of which, even at the present moment,, a- profi- , table direct trade is being carried on in a desultory • manner, and which would find support from the new . industries lately established here and in prospective •■ , i establishment. . ,"*.'' The Company do not propose to limit- tnemselves to running their own vessels, but will from time to time charter vessels when requjred, in the event of their- , own not being immodiatelyrf-vailable. Messrs Stone Bros., whoTiave for some time carried on a good shipping business^ and who have now fairly started a new London line, possess the nucleus of a fleet .. suitable for commencing operations, and arrangements have been made to take over their vessels and a goodwill of their shipping business for the sum of chirt> thousand six hundred and fifty pounds (30,650), they taking half the amount iv Company's shares. I'heir - fleet consisting of 8 vessel*,, with aggregate touii.tg© of 2642 tons, should be augmented as soon as possible, so , that the business may be extended without c'.eliy, \' especially the London and American branches. . • The services of Mr C. B. Stone, as managing- director, , and the staff at preseut under his control, v.-ho are es> ;■• perienced in this line of business, have hem BBCUttjd to take office under the new Company. . ■ , It is further proposed that the working expenses';: should be conducted on strictly economical principles, ■ , the expence of agencies and branches to-be defrayed out; .'•• of commissions on the actual freights earned by those; ' The proposed capital is set down tit £150,00<!^3Ut^sy^ only a small portion is required at present^BM^^purchase of the existing- fleet and contingent^^H^^^^^ further capital will not be called up un fl^^^H^B suitable for the London and other trada^^^^^^^^H for sale at reasonable prices, until I s^-l'-* ' ■ t l '.' -' , , V** ■< ,-r%^pri.*wwegJßiTOlEfJy' 1 Parnell,* Wooden Brigantine .-..'.. -.'
