Sofa the. Colony is developed. ■ ; ' : , . It is proposed to float the.shares principally in the Provinces of. Otago and Canterbury; as the class of enterprise is one in which they are specially interested, and rin which they h-rtie not hitherto occupied the position they are entitled to from" their large share in the trade of the Colony^ ' It is desired to establish a weekly line of' steamers between Otago and the principal Northern- Ports, to', put on a steamer between Dunedin and the West Coast Ports of the Middle Island, andialso to provide ; for the efficient.conduct of the trade.to and, from the. ■several smaller Ports on the Coast of Otago and Canterbury. For these purposes the'following new vessels will be required :— ■ " Three first class steamers for the trade between ■;■! Dunedin and Man itkau, to toe built, in Europe, ■ , i . and capable of carrying from* 400. to 500 tons . of cargo, fitted with compound engines and ,the latest iniprqvem-ntf,-and. with superior passengeraccorniußdation suited to therequ'rements of the present day. The steamers will be;of such a class nnd speed as will ensure every facility to shippers of goods and con veaienca to the travelling public. One boat' of smaller capacity and lis;hfc draught • ■ water, especially adapted to.the trade to the • ~., West Coast of the Middle.lslano. .., ..: . '.With a view to t ornnieneing operations without delay, it lias been arranged to 'ake over, ,on the Ist of January next, the steamers Maori, Beautiful Star, and Samson,'belonging to the Harbour Steam Company* .fleet, and also ■' their new steimer just built on the Clyde, specially for the^Timaru and- Lytteltdii trade, and which U expected to arrive in the Colony early in February. These vessels yill at once create, a revenue.. 1 orthe Company, and, it i<b»lieved, will.be sufficient, to carry on the trade" of the'ports on the coasts of Otßgo and Canterbury. •/■ ' : : ."'- ; The terms oh which it ha's been agreed to: take over the Harbour Company's plant are-exceedingly1 favourab.letq thisCompanyu-tlie .new boat is to'.t.e taken at .cost price, ,-and ' the■' Maori, .'Beautiful,, Star, 'and Samson, at a price '.to be arrived-at by a valua-. tibn of the boats, by'Mr Walcott,on.^behalf of this Company, Mr Mills on behalf !of Harbbur Company,' with Mr "A.
