The object of tWs Company Is to provide torf nage Buitable to the growing trade at tha Port Of Auoklond, so that the imports and exports of our city may be a3 much as possible carried in** locally-owned vksselb, and the Bhippins business carried on by a pdbely tooAi, com pany. The rates of freights current In this colony • compare most favourably with those ruling tn neighbouring colonies, and are, ns a role, sufficiently remunerative to leave a good profit! trading hence either foreign or intercolonial. Tho acknowledged daily increasing commer cial importance-of Auckland is a source of gratification,' and the Bhipping trade, under skilful management and with sufficient capital, would meet with speedy and great develop ment with many parts of tho World with which ' we are at present not in absolutely direct com munication. Tho object of this Company is to provide yes- I sels to trade in the directions already opened. and others which may from time to timo ofler inducements. ' ■.• j There is ample room for a well-organised new line between Auckland and London, Liverpool. and Glasgow, with New York, and with some of the larger centres ol Continental RuroDeun trade. Of course, the large and increasEa export of bulk and sawn timber will form an important adjunct. A trade with Tasmania. Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, &c. being's ready estebUshed, could easily be^conffiiuSl with regularity, whilst the Newcastle and Grey- ' mouth coal trades should be also provided for There is a vast field in prospective for a mod trade with America, Mauritius, China, ManSK. Calcutta, the Cape, Noumea, and numerous foreign ports, with some of which, even at the present moment, a profitable direct trade la being carried on In a desultory manner, and s which wonld find support from the new In- • distries lately established here andinprosDeo. * tivo establishment. , ' The Company do not propose to limit them- ' solves to running their own vessels, but will * from time to time charter vessels when re- ? quired, in the event of their] own not being Immediately available. .'T""™" 8 Messrs Stone Brothers, who have for some time carried on a good Bhipping business, and who have now fairly started a newLondo«?lin« i, possess the nucleus of a fleet suitable for com, mencing operations, and arrangements have been mada to take over their vessels and tha: goodwill of their shipping business for the realM of thirty thousand ais hundred and fifty nonivita '•' (£30,650/. they taking half the amount i?Con> ■ pany's shares.
