The extension of railway communication, the con sequent exceedingly rapid increase in the passenger traffic throughout the colony of New Zealand, and the paucity of information —of a reliable character—now obtainable of the arrivals and departures of the va rious trains coaches, mail and other steamers, and all methods ef travel, render &the publication of some trustworthy and authentic record of reference an absolute necessity. The subscribers propose to issue to the public a monthly " Guide," similar—as far as circumstances will permit—to the well-known "'Bradhaw" of the mother country, containing Time-tables compied with every possible regard to accuracy and from in formation obtained from authentic sources ODly of all Railways, Coaches, Steamers, fee , &c. The projected publication will also contain full information regard ing Postal and Telegraphic arrangements, General,. Provincial, and Municipal Governments; Public Institutions, Banks, Insurance Companies, complete Descriptive Itinerary, and, in short, will be made as replete with geneial and useful information as possible. The want of. a medium of Advertising for tbe whole Colony has long been felt by all commercial classes. The publication now projected will, it is confidently anticipated, fully fill that want, as it will be the first aim of the subscribers to produce the work at a price which must ensure its being accessible to the whole community. It is calculated that an issue of some thousands per month may be relied upon, which will be distributed throughout the entire Colony The advantages thus offered to advertisers must therefore be at once apparent. In submitting this prospectus to the public of New Zealand.'- the subscribers 'beg to .give the assurance that every effo't will be made to carry it out in its . integrity, and render in proportionately as recognised ■ an ii atitution ii_ New Zealand, as " Bradshaw's Guide" is in England. .. j , Terms of Subscriptions and for Advertising may be ; ,ascertained' from1 tho various agenti, whose names , will ahortly-ba puMl»he4 in the local newspapan. 1
