' r Engineers Jas, Stewakt, Esq., M. Inst. C.E., Late District Engineer. '. ' Interim Secretary":' ■ Jas. Stewaet, Esq., C.E. '•• The proposed railway will be about seventy tour miles in length, and commences at a point on the Hamilton-Thafles Railway, near the town of Morrinaville. From this point it rang southward through the centre ot the (treat 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 Tanranga districts; from this it descends, by an easy route, to its terminus at the Town of Ohinemutu, making a further distance of thirty-nine miles. This com pletes an unbroken chain of railway communi cation between the City of Auckland and the Hot Lake District, which is the central point of attraction for tourists to New Zealand. The cost of the lino has been estimated—after exploration—by James Stewart, Esq., late Dis trict Engineer, to bo £2,000 per mile for the first section of 35 miles; of the remainder, 21 miles will coat £3,000 per mile.iand the remaining 35 miles, about £15.10 per mile; making a total cost for construction (of 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. It is proposed to construct the Railway in two sections; the first section of 38 miles under the provisions of "The Distiiot Railways Ac«. 1877," by which, on approval by the Government, the Colonial revenue 1b security for interest on the cost 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 tot exceeding a further 5 per cent, thus giving a certain interest of 7 per cent on the investment, even if ths 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 Aot, and the Amendment Act, 1878." For the construction of the second section, passing, as it does, mainly through native lands, which it is not possible to bring under "The Distriot Railways Aots," 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 thi3 Railway, among 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 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; and, with this view, the capi tal of the Company has been fixed at a sum 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. 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 Thameaana Walkato districts, show that the country haß a power ot production and of supportine a large 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 of from 1,500,000 to 2,000,000 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 pU'tly to the fact that a, portion of this ter ritory has but recently been t from the native owners. The settlement of this extensive area' must necessarily, for some yeara to come, create a veiy large import traffic, and year by year, as settlement progresses, the export trafflo of grain, stock, and other produce must also in orcase to very large dimensions. But, inde pendently of the ordinary Bouroes of supply towards a railway traffic which agricultural and pastoral settlement or the country affords, there are special reasons vrhieh 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 purchasers of the lands known as the Patetere District are taking active steps towards the immediate colo nization, 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 fail to be very considerable during the first years of their settlement. Again, the line in its course to Ohinemutu, taps a valuable forest of magnifi cent Itimber, 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 house build ing, fencing, and fuel; and last, but certainly not least, the large and ever increasing stream of tourists visiting New Zealand from all parts of the world, attracted by the wonders of Ohinemntu and Rotomahana, will certainly prefer to use this 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 most interesting route, thus giving to the' line the exceptional advantage of a large passenger trafflo at once, quite irrespective of the 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 theialand. Regarding the trafflo which may be expected,' a comparison may be made with the existing lines in Auckland. Seeing that on these, lines there are many miles of unproductive country, and that the valleys of the Piaka, Waitoa and Thames are largely settled and stocked (and by i 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. Tho latest returns of the Kaipara-Te Awamutu rail way Bhow a net revenue of £193 per mile per annum. This wquld give on the fet 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, 33 per cent, will bo obtained, leaving only 31 per cent, to be made up by the Distriot Kate and Government con tribution, or a little over M per cent, and under 1 per cent respectively. : . . . v For these reasons, and for others too numer ous to mention, the Provisional Directors 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 thehearty support of thepoople of Auck land, both town and country, in a work which 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 £100,000, in 400,000 Shares of £1 each. The first issue oC 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 ths flrsfc section of the Railway, becau?e it is proposed to exercise the borrowing powers conferred by the Acts. On the prosecution ef tho second section, it will be a question whether to issue more Shares, or make further calls on those already issued. The payments on the first issf etobe Is on application, and the balance by Calls of Is each, at intervals of not lees 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 32 subscribers, in amounts not less than 1,000. AS it is anticipated that the whole of the Shares will be rapidly taken up, early application will be necessary. Priority of application will be a factor in the allotment of Shares by the Direc tory. No application will be received for less than 20 Shares. . . "V",OUDiG WOMJSN'S INSTJLTUTK AGENCy FOE GOVERNESSES AND : Servants' Rsoistkt.
