Stewart, Esq., M. Inst. C.E,, Late District Engineer. Interim Secretary: Jas. Stewart, Esq., C.E, The proposed railway will be about seventy four miles In length, and commences at a coin on the Hamilton-Thames Railway, near th< town of Morrlnsville. From this point it rani southward through the centre of the Rrea valley of the Upper Thames, by a veryeasj route, for a distance of thirty-five miles; it thei mounts to the wooded plateau which dividei the Upper Thames and Tauranga districts from this it desoendg, by an easy route, to i« terminus at the Town of Ohinemutu, making i further distance of thirty-nino miles. This com pletes an unbroken chain of railway communl cation between the City of Auckland and th( Hot Lake District, which la the central point ol attraction for tourists to New Zealand, The cost of the line has been estimated—aftei exploration—by James Stewart, Esq., late Sis trict Engineer, to be £2.000 per mile for the flrsl section of 35 miles; of the remainder, 24 nillee will coat £3,000 per mile, and the remaining If miles, about £1500 per mile; making a total cost for construction (ot the class of the Governmenl railways, and exclusive of rolling stock) oi £209,500. The oost of buildings and rolling stock is estimated at £38.000, making a total cost ol £247,600. It is proposed to construe t the Railway in two sections; the first section of 33 miles under the provisions of "The District Railways Ao». 1877," by which, on approval by the Government, the Colonial revenue is security for interest on the cost of construction and equipment not ex' ceedlng 2 per cent, and the neighbouring lands rated in proportion to the benefits derivable "rom the construction of the line) are liable for interest not exceeding a further 5 per cent, thus giving a certain interest of 7 per cent on the investment, even if the line itself only pays working expenses. The majority of the land lolders abutting on this section have expressed their willingness that.their properties shall be brought under the operation of " Tho Distriot Railways Aot, and the Amendment Act, 1878.' For the construction of the second section, passing, as it does, mainly through native lands, whioh it is not possible to bring under "The Distriot Railways Acts," it is proposed to work, if possible, under " The Railways Construction and Land Act. 1881." By this Act the Colonial Government is empowered to contract with a Company for the construction of this Railway, ameng others, and to grant such lands as are available as an endowment. In this case only 28,000 acres are available, situated in the Patetere country. This would not be a sufficient endow ment, without rating powers, to warrant 'the construction of this section ot the line, but the native proprietors have, in addition, agreed to give a considerable area of land to the Com pany. It is also proposed that the Company should acquire, by purchase, a further portion of native lands adjacent to the line, which may be expected to be largely increased in value by its construction; and, with this view, the capi tal of the Company has been fixed at a sum sufficient to include Buoh purchases. By this means, it is hoped the construction of the second section may bo undertaken almost simultane ously with the first The prospects of Immediate and very con siderable traffic on the line are as good, or better, than can be shown on any new line in New Zealand. The rapid strides made during the last few years in the Upper Thames and Waikato district?, Bhow that the country has a population in proportion to its area—equal to almost any other part of the colony. The pro jected railway line will open up an area ot from 1,600,000 to 3,000,000 of acres of available land, a large portion ready for immediate occu pation, but at present wholly unoccupied, owing partly to the want of means of communication, and partly to the faot that a portion of this ter ritory has but recently been acquired from the native owners. The settlement of this extensive area must necessarily, for some years to come, create a very large import traffic, and year by year, as settlement progresses, the export trafflo of grain, stock, and other produce must also in crease to very large dimensions. But, inde pendently of the ordinary souroes of supply towards a railway traffic which agricultural and pastoral settlement ot the country affords, there are special reasons which justify the expectation of an unusually rapid development of a varied, extensive, and paying business on this line. It is now generally known that the p'jrohaaers of the lands known as tho Patetere Dlrtriotare taking active steps towardn the Immediate oolo nlzation, by comparatively small holders, of the whole of the lands they have acquired, or are acquiring, through the agency of a powerful com pany In England. The importations consequent on the introduction of a large population cannot fall to be very considerable during the first yean ot their settlement Again, the line in its course to Ohinemutu, taps a valuable forest of magnifi cent Itimbar, from which—as Boon as the line is completed so far—the whole of the Upper Thames and Waikato districts will undoubtedly draw their supplies of timber for house build ing, fencing, and fuel; and last, but certainly not least, the loi-ge and ever increasing stream of tourists visiting New Zealand from all parts of the world, attraoted by the wonders of Ohinemutu and Rotomahana, -will certainly prefer to use this lino of railway, whioh will convey them easily in one short day from the city ot Auckland to the Hot Springs, by an easy and most interesting route, thus giving to the line the exceptional advantage of a large passenger traflio.ot once, quite irrespective of tho ordinary passenger trafflo of the country. It may also be pointed out that for a distance of fully forty miles the proposed line must, at a future and not very distant date, form part of the main line connecting Auckland with Napier and Wellington, through the Interior of the island. Regarding the trafflo whioh may be expected, a comparison may be made with the existing lines in Anokland. Seeing that on these lines there are many miles of unproductive country, and tbat the valleys of the Flaka, Waitoa and Thames are largely settled and stocked (and by the time the line is open may be expected.to be fully so), looking also to the scheme for the set tlement of the Patetere country, the Provisional Directors think the comparison a fair one. The latest returns of the Kaipara-To Awamutu rail way show a net revenue of £193 per mile per annum. This would give on the first section of thirty-eight miles, a net revenue of £7,331, or 7J per cent, on £100.000. Estimating the revenue for the five years working at only one-half that of the Kaipara-Waikato line, 3} per cent will be obtained, leaving only 3} per cent, to be made up by the District Rate and Government con tribution, or a little over issj per cent and under 1 per cent respectively. ;;,',.:.. , For these reasons, and for others too numer ous to mention, the Provisional Direotors feel folly justified in recommending the under taking to the Public as a work of national :as well as local importance. As an investment of capital, it will be directly remunerative, and they confidently expect the hearty support of the people of Auck land, both town and country, in a work whioh cannot fail, immediately on its completion, to add, as no one undertaking has added before, to the population, production, and the Import and export trade of the whole Provincial District The Nominal Capital of the Company is pro posed to be fixed at £400,000, in 400,000 Sharesof £1 each. The first issue Of Shares to be 209,000, on which it is not intended to call up more than 10s per Share, and.it is anticipated that 5s per Share will suffice as paid-up capital, for the first seotion of the Railway, beoauso it is proposed to exeroise the borrowing powers conferred by the Acts. On the prosecution of the second seotion, it will be a question whether to issue more Shares, or make further calls on those already issued. The payments on the first iasno to be Is on application, and the balance by Calls Of _c eaob, at intervals of not less than two months. Applications for Shares to be made to the Secretary, Shortland-street, or through author ised agents. 70,000 Shares have already been taken by ii subscribers, in amounts not less than 1,000. Ac it is anticipated that the whole of the Sharer will be rapidly taken up, early application will be necessary. Priority ot application will be a actor in the allotment of Shares by the Dlroo tory. No application will be received for teas than 20 Shares. ■ - * The following Gentlemen are AQSNTf authorised to receive applications for Shares vlz.>- Joseph Newman, Auckland Alex. Sannders, » Chas.
