Alexander, Tho object of tho propoaed Company 1b to pur chase the Mill, Plant, Freehold and Leasehold 3usheß,&o,,of tho existing Mercury Bay Saw Mill Company, and extond tho business now being carried on by them. ■ The present Mercury Boy Saw Mill Company, now in full operation, has agreod to dispose of their Froohold and Leasehold land and bushes (having an area of 41,000 acres), Mill. Plant, Kooms, Tramways. &c,, for the sum of £16,000, also their Logs now cut, Goods In Store, Horses and Bullocks at Cost, amounting approximately to £8,000, making in all about £2-1,000,f0r which THBIR SnARKnOLDKR^ HAVE AQBBKD TO ACOBPT PAYMENT AB FOLLOWS:— 27,000 Sharks in this Company at 12$ 6d BACH PAID UP, SAY £16,875, AND THE BALANCE in Cash as it is received, thus leaving 67.000 of the proposed pald-un Capital to be expended to further extend and develop the business. Notwithstanding the groat extension ot the timber Industry of lato years, the demand for kauri timber, both In New Zealand and in the Australian oolonies, is yearly inoroaslng, and the fact of an extensive Bystem of publio works being about to bo commenced in New South Wales, will tend to largely increase the con sumption of thH staple. Tho advantages poaseesed by Mercury Bay as , a alto for a sawmill are unsurpassed in the colony, Having a harbour acoeßßlblo in all woathorß to tho largest claes of traders, freights oan be obtalnod otthor for the South or the Australian oolonios, at a trifling advanoe upon tho Auckland harbour rates, thsreby effecting a BLivlng of tho. frolght paid from mill to Auok land, and rlso tho oxponsos'lind ohargos attond lng its ro-ehipment Tho area of land hold by the Company comprises about 41,000 acres, and ; Is variously estimated to contain from 150 to 200 millions feet available kauri timber, and tho facilities for Rotting it to the mill in aafoty .are not excelled by any establishment in the North Island. During tho past few years the demand for .dreasod kauri has largely Increased, and. not withstanding tho great increase otmaohinery usod for its prodnotlon, the demand is still un satisfied, and this company believe that the profit upon tho manufacture of rough timber will bo largely tupplementod by producing droßßSd limbor for shipment. It may bo mentioned that a looomotlve engine for tho tramway, aad an additional planing machine, havo been ordered from the manuf aot turers, and may bo expected to arrive shortly. A list of the various freehold and leasehold properties of the company, with the estimated quantity of kauri, and the terms of lease, may bo seen at tho offloe of the company. • Application for Shares, accompanied with deposit, must be made on or bof ore Wednesday, B'h February. groceries, &c. 15 Q BOXES ; CHOICE NEW SEASON'S TEA, Xx Mall litoamor, 225, Each, REWS, Victorlu-strcot, JUST HKUEIVED — ALFHED BIRD'S, BAKINGI POWDKR, CUSTARD POWBEB, and Biano Manok Powder.
