The "Victory" is a screw-steamer of 1000 tons gross register, and fitted with engines of 180 liorse- - power. She is known as one of the strongest and s fastest vessels iv Australia. She now lies on tbe beach * at high-water mark, and on sand, there being no < rocks or dansrei'S in the way of taking her off. She is not strained'fcr injured in any way. Her engines are < in perfect working order; and, if she were got off, whicli Mr. James Scott (the Engineer) states niny 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 '• ofthe patent, slip there, and well-kuown for his iuge- ' nious and successful accomplishment of similar under- J takings, 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 tlie ship off. j at £2000. The "Victory" v/as valued, at the time she was i 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 again and refitted , for sea. , , , The hull ot the " Victory" was purchased by hor present proprietors, wiio offer to baud her over to the Company upon the following terms: —£1500 to be paid down on giving possession, and £1500 in bills. 1 It will be for the shareholders to determine whe- ; ther the Company shall sell the vessel and realize their ; profit, or make arrangements to run her. The rapid i increase ofthe New Zealand trade has triven greatly 1 ' increased employment to the. colonial steamers ; and, . ! owing to the recent loss of several, such vessels are at the present time greatly in demand and enhanced in ' value. The " Victor/ is well-known as a vessel eminently suited, from ber size and speed, for tlie '. intercolonial trade, in which she might be employed with great advantage to the province, aud large direct profit to the proprietors. A limited number of shares are still open, appli--1 cations for which must be made at the oflice of R. B. Martin & Co., on or before the "17th March next, on ; which day a meeting of the Company will take place, and the final allotment of shares will be made. Dunedin. Feb. 27, 130:2.
