Mff Bankers: Hk Bank of New Zealand. mms COMPANY has been formed for the pur■B: JL pose of establishing a regular Steam Coastal 9| Service between Lyttelton and the Northern Ports of B Their first steamer is now being built, and will ' arrive in the province from England at the com- ; mencement of next wool season. f The dimensions of this vessel have been expressly i regulated to suit the navigation and trade of our i different rivers, combining large carrying capacity : with light draught of water; thus enabling her not ! only with ease and safety to navigate the Saltwater ; Creek, but this steamer will also be very suitable, and prove a valuable acquisition to the Heathcote and Kaiapoi river trade. The Directors deem it unnecessary to touch on the ; usual speculative analysis of trade probabilities, whereon to base their assumptions in this case; they i can rest with confidence on well known and admitted facts to prove the soundness, stability, and necessity of this undertaking. They request the public to judge whether or not there is at the present time even a moderately regular and sufficient trade communication between ? Port and Christchurch, or between Lyttelton and the other outports; they cannot but anticipate their just decision on this point, for this greatly increasing K necessity is becoming more apparent every day. ; The present trade of Canterbury imperatively r demands a quicker and more regular mode of transit, ; which it is the aim of this company to supply, and I in the supplying of which the directors have every | reason, on very sure grounds indeed, to anticipate a large, most important, and lucrative business. The Directors intend that the Company's first ; vessel already alluded to, being the smallest and best c adapted for the Creek and Kaiapoi trade, will, immediately on arrival, be placed in this service during the wool season; afterwards to co-operate from time to time in the Christchurch trade with the other steamers of this Company about to follow, which vessels will be fitted with every new improvement, and have sufficient extra steam-power for the purpose of towing in the river, over the bar, and elsewhere, as required; and it is estimated that a regular system of towing, with moderate charges, will result in no inconsiderable extra item in the profits of the Company. The Directors, in conclusion, request the attention of the public to the foregoing, being confident that the objects of the Company require only to be made known to be esteemed well worthy the active support and encouragement of the province.
