PROSPECTUS "VICTORY" SCREW STEAM-SHIP COMPANY, FOR PURCHASING, GETTING OFF, AND REFITTJNG THE SCREW STIiAM-SIIIP " VICTORY." ~Cai>ital: £7000; in 1400 Shares ol £~> each. 2'i payable upon allotment, and I lie remainder in calls not exceeding- £1 each, extending' over a period of Four Months. It is estimated that the cost of putting- tho ship afloat, will be £2000 Amount payable to present proprietors in cash ibr purchase of Ycs-;el 1000 Do. by Bills for do | 1500 Fitting out and contingencies -000 £7000 TT is proposed to form the above Company JL for tha purpose of taking- the steam-ship "Victory" off the beach, and ro-iittinjr her for sea. The " Victory " is a screw-steamer of 1000 tons gross register, aiid fitted with engines of ItSO horsepower. She is known as one of the strongest and fastest vessels in Australia. She now lies on the beach at high-water mark, and oil sand, there b.;in.a" no rocks or daujicM in the way of taking- her oif. She is not strained or injured hi any way. Her engines are in perfect working- order ; and. if she were jrot oil, which Mr. James~Seott ((he Engineer) states may be easily accomplished at moderate expense, she inig-ht. be lit tad forsca 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 i\nd successful accomplishment of similar undertaking's, proposes to lift the ship and convey her into deep water by means of a hydraulic apparatus (now in use i.i Emriaud), for which he possesses a patent. Mr. Scott estimates the expense of taking- the ship off at £-if) 00. * Tlk-"Victory" was valued, at the time she was rnn ashore, at from £2.5,0U0 to £;30,000 ; and, in the opinion of competent, juda-es. would be worth the same sum if successfully got" alloat again and refitted Tiie'lmll 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 m bills. I twill be for the shareholders to determine whether the Company shall sell (he vessel and realize their profit, or make arrang-emenis to run her. The rapid increase of tiic New Zealand trade has given greatly increased employment to the colonial steamers ; and, owiii'i- to the recent loss of several, such vessels are at the present time greatly in demand and enhanced in value. The "Victory" is well-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 the 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 p.i'operly organizing tho Company. In the nicantnne applications for Shares may be made at the oifice o Messrs. K. B. Maiitin &Co. £>unc(tyii; Jan. 15, 18u:2.
