J " PROSPECTUS OF THB "VICTORY" SCREW STEAM-SHIP COMPANY, B FOR PURCHASING, GETTING OFF, AND REFITTING THE SCREAV STEAM-SHIP " VICTORY." Capital : £7000; in 1400 Shares of £5 each. £2 payable upon allotment, and the remainder in calls not exceeding £1 each, extending over a period of Four Slonths. It is estimated that, the cost of putting the ship afloat will be .... £2000 " ; Amount payable to present, proprietors in ' cash for purchase of Vessel 1500 r Do. by Bills tor do 1500 • Fitting out aud contingencies 2000 £7000 3 TT is proposed to form the above Company - X tor the purpose of taking the steam-ship " Vie- . tory" off the bench, and re-fitting her for sea. The " A^ictory" is a screw-steamer of 1000 tons J gross register, and fitted witli engines of 180 horse- b power. She is known as 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 I rbclcs or dangers in the way of taking 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 Sir. James 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. Sir. James Scott, of Newcastle, N.S.W., proprietor of the patent, slip there, and well-known for his iuge- ' nious 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 whicli he possesses a patent. !• Sir. Scott estimates the expense of taking the ship off' at £2000. The "Victory" was valued, at the time she was i _ rnn ashore, at from £25,000 to £30,000 ; and, in the r opinion of competent judges, would be worth the same " sum if successfully got afloat again; and refitted ■* * for sea. r The hull ot 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. II It will be for the shareholders to determine \vhe- '" ther the Company shall seil the vessel and realize their ' profit, or make arrangements to run her. The rapid • increase of the New Zealand trade has given greatly increased employment to the colonial steamers; and, ovving 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 ( J, eminently suited, from her size and speed, foi-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 suflicient number being allotted, a meeting of Shareholders will be called for the purpose of pro- ■ perly organizing the Company. In the meantime " , applications for Shares may be made at the office of f i Slessrs. R. B. Slaktin & Co. n Dunedin, Jan. 15, 1862. . •' a MESSRS.
