BRADSHAW'S GFIDE TO NEW ZULAHD. The extension of railway communication, the con sequent exceedingly rapid increase in the passenger traffic throughout the colony of Now Zealand, and the paucity of information— of a reliable characier-now obtainable of the arrivals an* departures of the va rious trains, coaches, mail and other steamers, ana all methods of travel, render (the publication of tome trustworthy and authentic record of referanee »n absolute necessity. ■ The subscribers propose to issue to the public a monthly " Guide," similar—as far as circumstances will peimlt—to the well-taown "Bradhaw" of the mother country, containing Tims-tables compled with every possible regard to accuracy and from in formation obtained from authentic sources ODly of aU KaUwa' s, Coaches, steamers, *o , &c. The projected publication will also contain full information regard ing Postal and T legraphic arrangements, General, Provincial, and Municipal Governments ; Public Institutions, Banks, Insurance Companies, complete Descriptive Itinerary, and. in short, will be made as replete with general and useful information v P°The want of a medium of Advertisiog for tlie 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 calculate 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 giva the assurance that every effott will be made to carry it out in it* integrity, and render in proportionately as recognised an institution in New Zealand, as "Brtdshaw'a Guide" is in England. i Terms of Subscriptions and for Advertising may be ascertained from the various agents, whose name* will shortly be published In the local newtpapen. * DALOLIXSH * KBID,
