T. FOLEY. Ao-enf. Public Companies. PROSPECTUS "VICTORY" SCREW STEAM-SHIP com 31 ny, FOR PURCHASING, GETTING OFF, AND REFITTING THE SCREW STEAM-SHIP " VICTORY." Cavital: £7000; in 1400 Shares oi £5 each. £2 payable upon allotment, and the remainder in calls not exceeding £,1 each, extending over a period of Four Months. It is estimated that the cost of putting the ship afloat will he £2000 Amount payable to present proprietors in cash for purchase of Vessel 1500 Do. by Bills for do :;ISOO Fitting out and contingencies 2000 £70UO IT is proposed to form the above Company for the purpose of taking the steam-ship " Victory" off the beach, and re-fitting her for sea. The "Victory" is a screw-steamer of 1000 tons gross register, and fitted with engines, of 180 horsepower. She is known rs one of the strongest and fastest vessels in Australia. She now lies on the beach at high-water mark, and on sand, there being no rocks or dangers in the way of takiug her off. She is not strained or injured in any way. Her engines are in perfect working order ; and, if she were got off, which Mr. .lamps Scott (the Engineer) states may be easily accomplished at moderate, expense, she might be fitted for sea at short notice, and at a trifling outlay. Mr. James Scott, of Newcastle, N.S.W., proprietor of the patent slip there, and well-known for his ingenious and successful accomplishment of similar undertakings, proposes to lift the ship and convey her into deep water by means of a hydraulic apparatus (now in use in England), for which he possesses a patent. Mr. Scott estimates the expense of taking the ship off at £-2000. The "Victory" was valued, at the time she was rnn ashore, at from £25,000 to £30,000 ; and, in the opinion of competent judges, would be worth the same sum if successfully got afloat ag-ain and refitted for sea. The hull of the " Victory" was purchased by her present proprietors, who offer to hand her over to the Company upon the following terms: —£lsoo to be paid down on giving possession, and £1500 in bills. It will be for the shareholders to determine whether the Company shall sell the vessel and realize their profit, or make arrangements to run her. The rapid increase of the Xu\v Zealand trade lias given greatly increased employment to the colonial steamers ; and, owiiis to the recent loss of several, such vessels are at the present time greatly in demand and enhanced in value. The " Victory*' is weil-known as a vessel eminently suited, from her size and speed, for the intercolonial trade, in which she might be employed with great, advantage to the province, and large direct profit to tbe proprietors. One-half of the shares have already been taken up, and on a sufficient number being allotted, a meeting of Shareholders will be called for the purpose of properly organizing the Company. In the meantime applications for Shares may be made at the office of Messrs. R. B. Maktin & Co. Dunedin. Jan. 1-5, 1862. ■■ ■ ' .
