STEWABTj ESQ.jM.INST. C,E,, . . Late District Engineer. " -.'; Interim Secretary: • JAS, Stewart, Esq., C.E, Thßpropo3ed railway v?lll be about seventy four miles In length, and commences at a point On the Hamilton* Thames Railway, near the town of Morrlnaville. From this point it runs southward through the oentre ot the great valley of the Upper Thames, by a very easy route, for a distance of thirty-five miles; It then mounts to the wooded plateau which divides the Upper Thames.and Tauranga districts; from this it descends, by an easy route, to Us terminus at the Town of Ohinemutu, making a further distance of thirty-nine miles. This oom pletes an unbroken chain ot railway communi cation between the City of Auokland and the Hot Lako District, which la the central point of attraction for tourists to Now Zealand. The cost of the line has been estimated—after exploration—by James Stewart, Esq., late Dis trict Engineer, to be £2,000 per mile for. ths first section of 35 miles; of the remainder, 21 miles will cost £3,000 per mile, and the remaining IS miles, about £10.0 per mile;.making a total cost for construction (ot the class of the Government railways, and exclusive of rolling stock) of £209,500. The cost of buildings and rolling stock is estimated at £38.000, making a total cost of £217,500. I - . •>'.-.-.• ■•■■,.- It is proposed to oonstruot the Railway in two sections; the first section ot 38 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 tho ooßt of construction and equipment not ex ceeding 2 per cent,, and the neighbouring lands (rated in proportion to the benefits derivable from the construction of the line) are liable for interest not exceeding a further S 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 holders abutting on this section have expressed their willingness that their properties shall be brought under the operation of " The District Railways. Act. and the Amendment Act, 1878." For the construction of the second section, pasting, as it does, mainly through native lands, which 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 tho construction of this Railway, among others, and to grant such hinds as are available as anendownmnt. 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 tho construction of this section of 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; Rnd, with this view, the capi tal of the Company has been fixed at a Bum sufficient to include such purchases. By this means, it is hoped the construction of the second section may be undertaken almost simultane ously with the first. . ; Tho prospects of immediate and very oon siderable traffic on the line are sa 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 districts, show that the country has a power of production and of supporting alafgo population in proportion to Its area—equal to almost any other part ot the colour. The pro jected railway line will open up an area of from 1,600,000 to 2,000,000 of aoreß 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 fact 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, oreatea very large import traffic, and year by year, as settlement progresses, the export traffic of grain, stook, and other produce must alio in crease to very largo dimensions. But, inde pendently of the ordinary sources of supply towards a railway traffic which agricultural ana 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 lino. It is now generally known that the purchasers of the. lands known as the Patetere District are taking active steps towards the immediate colo nisation, by comparatively small holders, of tho whole of the lands they have acquired, or are aequirinsr. through theastency of a powerful com pany in England. The importations consequent on the introduction of a large population cannot fail to be very considerable during the first years ot their settlement. ■ Again, the lino in its course to Ohinemutu. taps a valuable forest of magnifi cent {timber, from which—as soon as the line is completed so far—the whole of the Upper Thames and Waikato districts will undoubtedly draw their supplies of timber for housebuild ing, fencing, and fuel; and last, but oertainly not least, the large and ever,increasing stream of tourists vißlting New Zealand from all parts of th 6' world, attraoted, by the wonders^ of Ohinemntu and Botomahana, will certainly :prefer.jta use thiß line of railway, which will convey them easily in one short day from the city ot Auckland to the Hot Springs, by an easy and mort interesting route, thus giving to the line the exceptional advantage of a largo Sassenger traffic at once, quite irrespective; of, ac ordinary passenger traffic of the country. It may also be pointed out that for a distance ot 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, througk the Interior of theisland. ' ; ■'; ,'. £ t , ' " '■; ■• '"V,,t ,■ Regarding the traffio which may be expected,. a comparison may bs made with the existing lines in Auckland. Seeing, that on these; lines there are many miles of unproductive country, and that the valleys of tha Piaka, Waitoa and Thames are largely settled and stooked (and by the time the line is open may be expaoted to bo fully so), looking also to the scheme for the set tlement of the Putetere oountry, the Provisional Directors think the comparison a fair one. The latest returns of the Kaipara-To Awamuto rail way show a net revenue of £193 per mile per annum, i This would glvo on the tot seotlon of thirty-eight miles, a net revenue of 57,331, or 7i percent, on£loo.ooo. Estimating the revenue for the five years' working at only one-half that of the Kaipara-Waikato line, Si per cent, will be obtained, leaving only 3J per cent, to be made up by the District Bate and' Government con tribution, or a little over ,2} per cent, and under I per oent respectively. ' ' ■ • :' ■ For these reasons, and for others too nnmer ous to mention, the Provisional Directors feel fully justified in recommending the under taking to the Public as a work Of national as .well as lo6al importance. As an Investment of capital, it will ,be direotly remunerative, and they confidently expect the hearty support of the people ot Auck land, both town and country, in a work which nannot 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 £100,000, in 400,000 Shares ot £1 each. The first issue ot Shares to be 200,000, 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 Bastion of the Railway, baoauee it is proposed to exercise the borrowing powere conferred by the Acts. On tho 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 tho first issue to be Is on application, and the balance by Calls of Is each, at intervals of not less than two months. Applications for Shares to ba made to the Secretary, Shortland-street, or through author ised agents.; ■ -, •■ -. 70,000 Shares have already beon taken by 32 subscribers, in amounts not less than 1,000. Ac it is anticipated that the whole of the Share; will bs rapidly taken up, early application will be necessary. Priority, of application will be a factor in the allotment of Shares by tho Direc tory. No application will bo received for less tt an 20 Shares.
