Secebtabv, fro tern.: J. C. Berger, The object of this Company is to provide ton nage suitable to the growing trade of the Port of Auckland, so that the imports and exports ot our city may be as much as-possible carried la locally-owned vksski.s, and the shipping: ' business carried on by a purely local com pany. The rates of freights current in this colony compare most favourably with those ruling in neighbouring colonies, and are, as a rule. sufficiently remunerative to leave a good profit trading hence either foreign or Intercolonial. The acknowledged daily increasing commer cial importance of Auckland is a source of gratification, arid the shipping trade, under skilful management and with sufficient capital, would meet with speedy and great develop ment with many parts of the World with whion we are at present not in absolutely direct com munication. The object of this Company is to provide ves sels to trade in the directions already opened, and others which may from time to time offer nducementa. . There is ample room for a well-organised new line between Auckland and London, Liverpool, and Glasgow, with New York, and with BomiS of the larger centres of Continental European trade. Of course, the large and increasing export of bulk and gawn timber will form an mportant adjunct. A trade with Tasmania. Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, &c, being al ready established, could easily be continued with regularity, whilst the Newcastle and Grey mouth coal trades should be also provided for. There Is & vast field in prospective for a good trade with America, Mauritius, China, Manilla Jalcutta, the Cape, Noumea, and numerous foreign ports, with some of which, even at the present moment, a profitable direct trade is leing carried on in a desultory manner, and which would find support from the new in dustries lately established here and in prospec ve establishment, ■ The Company do not propose to limit them selves to running their own vessels, but will I from time to time charter vessels wheniS quired, in the event of their]own notitHK:, Immediately available. , ST* Messrs Stone Brothers, who have for Hour time carried on a good shipping business, a—l who have now fairly started a new London linch possess the nuoleus ot a fleet suitable for con? ueuoing operations, and arrangements have) ieen made to take over their vessels and tiio good-will of their shipping business for the stun >t thirty thousand six hundred and fifty pounds £30,660), they taking half the amount in Com lany's shares. Their fleet, consisting of 8 vessels, with aggregate tonnage of &M 2 tons, should be augmented as soon as possible, bo hat the business may be extended without lolay, especially the London and -Amm-lcm The services of Mr C. B. Stone, as managing director, and the staff at present under hu control, who are experienced in this Una of business, have been secured to take office under the new Company. It is further proposed that the working ex penses should be conducted en strictly eco&omt sal principles, the expense ot agencies and branches to be defrayed out of commissions <_ the actual freights earned by those branches. The proposed capital is set down at £150 000 but as only a small portion is required at present for the purchase of the existing fleet and gob. tingent expenses, further capital will not ba called up until vesiiels suitable tor the London and other trades may offar for sale atreasonahla prices, until which time it is proposed to charted vessels as required to supplement the nregent fleet. It is proposed to invite all Auckland business, men and all who may have any interest In tha trade of our port to take Shares in thia local Company, and to give tbo undertaking every possible support.
