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 Months. PROVISIONAL DIRECTORS, AY.

ENGINEER, JAMES SCOTT. SECRETARY, GEO. GARSIDE. 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 Do. by Bills for do 1500 Fitting out and contingencies 2000 ! £7000 THIS Company has been formed for the purpose of taking "the steam-ship "Victory" off the beach, and ye-ftttirif;- her for sen. The " Victory " is a screw-steamer of 1000 tons gross register,,and fitted witli engines of 180 horsepower. She.is.known as one of the strongest and fastest vessels.in Australia. She now lies on the beach at high-water mark, aud on sand, there being no rocks 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 Mr, J times 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.AV., proprietor ofthe 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 tbe opinion of competent judges, would be worth the same - sum if successfully got afloat again and refitted : for sea. Tlie hull ot the '■'■ Victory" was purchased by hei present proprietors, who offer to hand her over to the Company upon the following terms: —£1500 to be i paid down on giving possession, and £1500 in bills. 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 increase of the New Zealand trade has given greatly 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 " Victory5' is well-known as a \essel eminently suited, from her size and speed, fpr the intercolonial trade, in which she might be employed great advantage to the province, and large direct profit to the proprietors. ~„ ' A limited number of shares are still open, applications for whicli must be made at thp office of R. B. Martin & Co., ou or before the 17th March next, on which day a meeting °f the Company will take place, and the final allotment of shares will be made. - Dunedin, Feb. 27,1862. VICTORIA.
