The ohleot of this Company is to provido ton nage BUitable to the Browing trade of the Port ofAuckland, so that the imports and exports of our city may be as much as possible carried pt locally-owned VESSELS, and the shipping business carried on by a pubelv local oom i>JTUo rates of freights current in this colony compare most favourably With those ruling in neighbouring colonies, and are, as a rule, Buffloiently remunerative to leave a good profit, trading honoe either foreign or Intercolonial. The acknowledged daily Increasing com m or oial importance of. Auokland is a source ot gratification, and the shipping trade, under skilful management and with sufficient capital, would meet with speedyjuid great .develop* ment with many parts of the World with which we are at present not in absolutely direot com-, municatlon. ' ■, ...; 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 ThereuTample room for a well-organised now Una between Auokland and London, UverpooL; and Glasgow, with New York, and with some ot the larger centres of Continental European traue. Of course, the large and Inoreasing' amort of bulk and sawn timber will form an Important adjunct. A trade with Tasmania, Sydney, Melbourne. Adelaide, &c, being al ready established, could easily be continued with roKulariiy, whilst the Newcastle and Grey nwuthoial trides should be also provided for. There is a vast field in prospepflya tor a good trade with America, Mauritius, China. Manilla, Oatoutte, the Cape, Noumea, atfd numerous foreign ports, with some of which, even at tha nreaent moment, a profitable direct trade is being carried on in a desultory manner, and which would find support from the new in dustries lately established here and In prospec tive establishment. .... The Company do not propose to limit them- Rnlves to running their own vessels, but will from time to time charter vesselH when re quired, in tho event of their own not being Messrs Stone Brothers, who havo for* some time carried on a good shipping business, and who have now fairly started a new London line, Tuvutns the nucleus of a fleet suitable for oom mencing operations, a_d arrangementa have been made to take over their vessels and the KOOd-wUI of their shipping business for the sum of thirty thousand six hundred and fifty pounds 0i50650) they taking half the-amount in Coin- SPT shares. Tnefc fleet, consisting of 8 vessels, with aggregate tonnage of 26fi tons, should be augmented as soon^ as possible, so that the business may-be extended without delay especially the London and American bThe^ eervioes of Mr o.B..Stone,as nianagids director and the staff at present under his control who are experienced in this line of business, havo been secured to take offlco under thl°t nis VfurthOT ftpropoßed that the.working ex nonses should be conducted on strictly economi cal principles, the expense of agencies and branches to be defrayed out of commissions on f lin iirtunl freights earned by those branches.
