PROSPECTUS OF THE AUCKLAND STEAM NAVIGATION C 0 M PA N Y. CAPITAI< 54.000, IS £5 SHAKEN, With Power to Increase it to GOOO/. Deposit £\ per Share. Provisional CommHtee — John Salmon, Esq. |\V. Hughes, Esq. W. S. Grahame, Esq. James Maeky, Esq. W. C. Daldv, Esq. William Mason, Esq. J. A. Giliillan, Esq. J. W. Bain, Esq. J. Woodhouse, Esq. J. Newman, Esq. Bankers— Union Bank of Australia. Solicitor—l. Whitakcr. Honorary Secretary—W. C. Daldy. fXNE of the consequences arising from the recent cheap land regulations is an extraordinary increased requirement for certain and speedy communication with the Capital and the numerous Stations formed and forming on the Coast and Banks of the Rivers. To secure this important advantage to the settlers, merchants, producers and consumers, in fact, to the community of this Province, it is proposed to commence this undertaking with a Steam-Boat, of about 100 tons builder's measurement, and 50 horse power, for ihe purpose of trading to (he posts most in need, viz., the Tamaki, Howick, North Shore, Wairoa, Mahurangi, Malakaua, and Kawau. calling at such places as may offer sufficient inducement; and it is confidently anticipated that in a short period the Company might be in a position to extend the operations to Coromandel, the Barrier, Wangarei, and the Bav of Islands. Five Pound Shares have been recommended, because it is considered desirable to offer as many persons as possible an opportunity of interesting themselves in the undertaking, thereby making it the general interest of all to offer facilities and assistance to carry out the object of the Company, that object being to effect a general benefit to the Province more than individual profit. It is thought unnecessary to dwell on the great extension of general traffic wherever proper facilities of intercourse by Steam have been afforded, it may, however, be briefly staled that, within the proposed limits, the extent of traffic will be sufficient to make a fair return for the capital employed, and, when in full operation, will offer important advantages to the public in the conveyance of passengers, produce, and mcr chandize. It is proposed to apply to the General Assembly to pass a Bill, during the present Session, to limit the liability of the Shareholders to the amount of their respective shares. Application for shares may be made in the subjoined form, to the Provisional Committee, through the Secretary and the Solicitor of the Company. On the Provisional Committee receiving applications for £OO shares, they will convene a meeting, for the purpose of appointing Directors to undertake the management of the Company, who shall have the appointment of a Manager.
