Provisional Directors : • John Henderson, C.E. (Engineer for Messrs Brogden; and Son), Wellington ' Thomas T.'Masefleld (Masefield and Co., Engineers),; Auckland William Lodder, Engineer, Auckland ' ' • F. M. P. Brookfield, Auckland Robert J. Creighton, Auckland. ; Solicitors : Messrs Whitaker and Russell. Bankers : Bank of New Zealand. j ; :, Secretary : John Mowbray. • The object of this Company is to utilize the Ireril Stone and Iron Sand which abound in this Province.^ by converting them into cast iron and malleable steel iron, by the process of manufacture successfully tried; at Onehunga by the original promoters of the ConM pany. i Samples lof their iron have been submitted to the severest tests by practical mechanics, and invariably pronounced to be equal ir. grain and toughness to the best Lowmoor and Swedish iron. > It is proposed to raise sufficient capital for the purchase of machinery, and for the erection of thQ necessary plant and buildings,' at a site to be deter-; mined as being most convenient for obtaining a supply of the Iron Sand, Iron Ore, and Coal. A careful estti mate has been made of the cost of a plant suited for the purpose of manufacturing Pig Iron, and Mer-r chant^Bar Iron, together with land and buildings; an 4 the amount is £15,000. The whole of the machinery can be supplied in Auckland. This would include :—j 1 High-pressure Steam Engine, 100-horse powetf nominal j 1 Hot : blast Furnace, complete; 6 Puddling Furnances > 2 Mill Furnaces ; 1 Rolling Mill, 10-inch train ! 1 Steam Hammer ; 3 Coke Ovens 2 Pair Shears ; 1 Straightening Press ( Land, Buildings, Freight, Commissions, and Contingent Expenditure. . ' The Plant, as enumerated, would be sufficient as a beginning, arid would admit of extension at any time.) The following is an estimate of the weekly product tion of finished Bar Iron, leaving out of calculation altogether the yield of Pig Iron from the Blast i-'uri nace—an estimate founded upon'experience :-- j Five Puddling Furnaces, working five days per weelf (one day idle for fettling, &c,), and 1 spare Furnace^ 50 tons. Return in cash, at £1G per ton, £800; Wages per week—Puddling per ton, including helper, 255, £02 10s ; Shinglers, ditto ditto, £12 10s ; Rollers; ditto ditto, 4s, £10 ; Engineers, £12 ; Stokers, £4-j ---£l6 ; two Forge Labourers, £i ; 75 tons Coal, £150 j Haw Material, at per ton, 4 s, £100 ; Management, Contingencies, Office Eent, oear and Tear, &c, £100. Total, £455— 0r, j Dr. 50 tons Merchant Bar Iron, per week, at £1C per ton £800 0 0 .CR.. ■ i I Wages, Management, Interest, Coal, Raw Material, &c 455 0 y : Showing a weekly profit of .. 345 0 0 ' .. ' ; • . OBj $17,940 per annum. It will be seen that no account is taken of the profits from the iron produced by the Blast Furnace which it is proposed to erect, capable of making ten tons of pig'iron daily. This item, however; will add considerably to the profits of the undertaking. The raw' material is estimated in excess of what it is likely to' cost; and,-with 'regard to coal, which is estimated to cost £2 per ton, it has been ascertained that Buller River Coal, Waikato, arid Bay of Islands Coal could be delivered at the works at £110s per ton:, with certainty. But a most valuable seam of coal having been discovered close by the, site of the prol posed works, the saving on that item will necessarily be very great. The Promoters have secured the right to use all Iron' Sand and-Iron Stone within the Manakaii Harbour;: the property of the Crown, free of royalty. There is an unlimited supply of Iron Sand and Hfematite Iron Ore, as well within as without the Manakau Heads; and the Provincial Government have by letter expressed their readiness to lease in terms of the Public reserves Act any portion of the West Coast line under Provincial cqntrol which the Promoters of Hie: Company may require in the proj secution of their enterprise, i ~ The price of Bar Iron is estimated above at £16 per ton,, the lowest price at which it has ever bqe,n sold , for in Auckland being from £J,4, to £10 per ton. The current rate is £20 per ton cash; £22 per ton at three months; and the general tendency is upwards. The cost of producing Merchant Bar Iron is, after makingjthe most liberal allowance for expenses of all kinds; £10 per ton. Taking the iron as selling on the spot for £16 per ton. a large and certain return is assuredr, The tlemand .for, 'Iron is daily inprjeasing owing to tHe extension of railways, mining,' Bhip ■ building, and other branches of manufacturing in dustry, i The certaihty of finding a market for all ■ that can be produced need not therefore be doubted. i' As a legitimate investment for capital, Shares in i the Auckland Iran and Steel Company, Limited; are without a rival. It is altogether free from the specu lative uncertainty of goldmining. ■■■' Thesupply of the raw material of manufacture being on the surf ace, - renders it less costly to procure that any other mineral deposit, whiie the demand for the manufac tured article is, practically, without a limit. 50,000 Shares of the proposed {capital of the Com pany are offered to the public. 2s. 6d. per Share deposit to be-'paid on application ; 2s 6d. per Share on allotment; and ss. per Share .within six months from allotment, in calls not exceeding 2s. 6d. The remaininglOs. is to be called up (if required) in calls not exceeding 2s. 6d. each, at periods of not less than two months.' :■. •'-< ■■'■ It is proposed to pay to the Promoters, as soon as he Co mpany is in a position'to erect machinery, the 4sum of £2,000 in cash, and on allotment 8,000 fully paid-up Shares ; the remaining 42,000 Shares to be held in trust for the Company. The Promoters bind themselves not to place their Shares on the market until the plant is in working order ; and engage to assist in "carrying on the works after the start, at a salary to be agreed upon with the Directors, and to convey to the Company for its use their rights and privileges in a Patent for the working of loon Sand and Iron Ore applied for by them. On one-fourth of the required capital being sub scribed, a General Meeting of the Shareholders will be convened to elect a Board of Directors and pass Rules for the management of the Company, and also to make- arrangements for the vigorous prosecution of the works! ' ' The Provisional Board of Directors is principally composed of practical men, who, having satisfied themselves, give Mieir services to further this national undertaking. Applications for Shares made to the Company's Secretary, Mr. John Mowbray, No. 44, Queen-street, Auckland, .up to the 14th day of March, 1873, will be numbered as received, and Shares allotted on approval .by.thfi. Directors, immediately after tho jreccipt of Southern applications. Auckland, February 8,1873.

' _ This Phosphatic combination is pronounced by the most eminent members of the Medical Profession to be une.qualled for its power in replenishing the vitality .of the body, by its supplying all the essential con stituents of the blood and nerve substance, and for developing all the powers and functions of the system to the highest degree. . It is agreeable to the palate and innocent m its action, while retaining all its extraordinary properties, and as a specific surpassing all the known therapeutic agents of the day .for the speedy and permanent cure of- Nervous Prostration Trembling of the hands and Liver Complaints limbs Palpitation of the heart Impaired nutrition Dizziness Mental and physical de- Noises in the head and ears pression _ Loss Of energy and'appetite Consumption (in its mci- Hypochohdria pient or first stages only) Female complaints Eruptions of the skin General debility Impaired sight and memory Indigestion Nervous fancies Flatulence Impoverished fancies Incapacity for study or Impoverished blood business Nervous debility in all its Sick headache stages Lassitude Premature decline Shortness of the breath and all morbid conditions of the system, arising from whatever cause. The action of the Phosphodyne is twofold—on the one hand increasing the principle which constitutes nervous energy,- and oh the other, the most powerful blood and flesh generating agent known ; therefore, a marvellous medicine for, re novating impaired and broken-down constitutions. It qxiickly improves the function of assimilation to such a degree that where for years an emaciated,- anxious, cadaverous, and semi-vital condition has existed, the flesh will rapjcily increase in quantity and firmness, and the whole system return to a state of robust health. ' . . The Phosphodyne acts electrically upon tne organi sation ; for instance, it assists nature to generate that human electricity which renews and rebuilds the the osseous, muscular, nervous, membranous, and organic systems. It operates on the system without exciting care or thought upon the individual as to the process. It moves the lungs, liver, heart, kidneys, stomach, and, intestines, with a harmony, vigour, yet mildness, unparalleled in medicine. The Phosphodydne gives back to the human struc ture, in suitable form, the phosphoric or-animating element of life which has been wasted, and exerts an important influence directly on the spinal marrow and nervous system, of a nutritive, tonic, and invigorating character; maintaining that buoyant energy of the brain and muscular system which renders the mind cheerful, brilliant, and energetic, entirely overcoming that dull, inactive . and sluggish disposition which many persons experience in all their actions. The beneficial effects of the Phosphodyne_ are. fre quently shown from the first day of its administration by a remarkable increase of nervous power,:: with a feeling of vigour and comfort to which the patient has long been unaccustomed. Digestion is improved; the appetite increases wonderfully; the bowels become regular; the eyes brighter; the- skin clear and healthy ; and the hair acquires strength, showing the importance" of the action of the Phosphodyne on the organs of nutrition. , . • ici'-. ■' • Finally, the Phosphodyne maintains a certain degree of activity in the previously debilitated nervous system ; its use enables all.delibilated organs to return to their sound state and perform their natural func tions. . Persons suffering from Nervous Debility, or any of the hundred symptoms which this distressing disease assumes, may rest assured of an effectual and even speedy cure by the judicious use of this most invaluable remedy.
