The scheme cmbi.ices not oulv the placing a suitable steamer ou the Minu'wui, but also tha eonstiuctionof a cheap hamvwiy acto-3-. the le\e! countiy between the V> aiuku ard the banks of tlie W.ukato, with piopei whaifage and ".forage accommodation at all the p'.iees at uhicli the company's boats will call It may also be fcuud clesti.ablo to evtend opei itions to the Waikato itself , and by tunning boats on that mer and its blanches, to undertake the calling traffic traffic thiouidi the whole distance The location of thiee icgiments of Waikato Militia in the uppei portion of the conntry has already created a considerable amount of tiafhc . and the opening up of those fertile di^tncts to the enterjirihe of European colonisation will ceitaiuly lead to the development of the mtmal resources of the countiy to a vciy laige extent Aheady the highly successful sale of a part of the site of the future city of Newcastle (at the junction of the Waikato and "\Yaipo, uvcrs) has '■liowu the fa\ourable estimate which the mercantile community has foimcd of the prospects of trade in that district , an estimate which the approaching settlement of large numbers of Eiuopean lmmigiauts on the Waikato lands cannot fail to justify It is oTnious" that, wheie\ci a large population spring-) up, ready means ot cominuniuation must be piOMde I . It is therefore, to meet an actuil necessity, that the establishment of the Manukau Steam Company line i-» pioposcd, and the Pio\isional Diiectois feel that thej can, with ]>cifect confidence, recommend the scheme to their follow colonists, m the assuiauce that it will not only be of great ser%ice to the community, in assisting to open up an important part of this piounce, but also, if wisely carried out, a source of considerable profit to the *hareholders Applications for shares will he recencd by the undersigned until noon of MONDAY, October 17.
