T> RAD SHAW'S GUIDE TO _D NSW ZEALAND. | 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 of travel, render |the publication of some trustworthy and authentic record of reference an absolute necessity. ; The subscribers propose to issue to the pnblic a j monthly "Guide," similar—as far as circumstances will permit—to the well-known "Bradhaw" of the : mother country, containing Time-table* compied ; with every possible regard to accuracy and from in j formation obtained from, authentic sources only of all : Railways, Coaches, Steamers, &c , &c. The projected ; publication will also contain full information regard-' jing Postal and Telegraphic;arrangements, General, )Provincial, and Municipal' Governments ; Public | Institutions, Banks, Insurance Companies, complete I Descriptive Itinerary, and, in short, will be made as 1 replete with general and useful information M possible. ;, . -, ~ •....., ! The want of a medium of Advertising for" the | whole Colony has long been felt by all commercial i classes. The publication now projected will, it is confidently anticipated, folly fill that want, as it will | be the first aim of the subscribers to produce the work j at a price which must ensure its being accessible to j 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. j In submitting this prospectus to the public of New Zealand, the subscribers beg to give the assurance 1 that .every effort'will be made to carry it out in its I integrity, and render in proportionately as'recognised i an institution in New Zealand, as "Bradshaw's ; Guide" is in England.* ■ -•'.' ■ -' «!<"■. i , Terms of Subscriptions and for Advertising may be '. ascertained from the various agents, whose names ; will shortly be published in the'local newspapers. | ; .
