Ralph Simpson, Esq. The Manukau Steam Company has been projected in order to supply a cheap and regular means of communication between the capital and the extensive districts watered by the Waikato and its tributaries, and the various settlements on the shores of the Manukau Harbour. The scheme embraces not only the placing a suitable steamer on the Manukau, hut also the construction of a cheap Tramway across the level country between Waiuku and the back of the Waikato, with proper wharfage and storage accommodation at all the places at which the Company’s boat will call. It may also be found desirable to extend operations to the Waikato itself, and by running boats on that river and its branches, to undertake the carrying traffic through the whole distance. The location of three Regiments of Waikato Militiamen in the upper portion of the country has already created a considerable amount of traffic, and the opening up of those fertile districts to the enterprise of European colonization will certainly lead to the development of the natural resources of the country to a very large extent. Already the highly successful sale of a part of the site of the future Citv of Newcastle (at the junction of the Waikato and Waipa Rivers) has shown the favourable estimate which the mercantile community has formed of the prospects of trade in that district, an estimate which the approaching settlement of large numbers of European immigrants on the Waikato lands cannot fail to justify. It is obvious that wherever a large population springs up, ready means of communication must be provided ; it is, therefore, to meet an actual necessity that the establishment of the Manukau Steam Company’s Line is proposed, and the Provisional Directors feel that they car, with perfect confidence, recommend the scheme to tin ir fellowcolonists, in the assurance that it will not only be of great service to the community in assisting to open up an important part of the Province, bnt also, if wise’y carried out, a source of considerable profit to the Shareholders. Application for Shares will be received by the undersigned until Noon of MONDAY. 17th October. GEO. HODGE, Hon. Sec. Forms of application for Shares can be obtained o Mr. H. P.
