PROPECTUS.
The primary object of this Conriany is the establishment
cf a rt mitar line of steam shtpr between the ports of Mon-
treal and Quebec, in Canada, and the United Kingdom, par-
ticular y at present totally un rovided tor. Ac-
commodation will 1 nte afforded tor the trade of Newfound-
land, Nova ',cot's, and New Brunswick, as may be required,
and s may offer remuner tive restuta.
The n-cessity of direct and regular steam communication
between Lond n and British North America has 1 ng beet,
most seriously felt by the'merchants interested In this trade ;
the want ot it has nt' soe years past coelled them to
forw rd large quantiiiie ofm vauable goods tomp Liverpool and
Glatt ow. incurring the h avy expense of ra lway trans t, and
damage o •casioned thereby, as well as great uncert 'int in
the time of sitionent.
The large wh sle houses in London, for the sale of
every description of ti xti le fabrics, are especially interest
hy
ed
in this undertaking- they having been seri usly prejudiced
the greater facilit,es for shipment whi,la their rivals in Man-
chester and other nor hern towns possess.
By official returns, it appear that the total imports and
exports at Montreal were below 20,000.000 do lane in 1856
whereas they reached in 1862 nearly ,0,000,001 dollars. The
fact of the trade being nearly d ,üble iin the space o seven
years. proves the ne!essity of more ra:•id and extended com
mimic tion, whilst the v si prdgress in the production of the
West (all of which district is now seeking a transit through
Canada as being the shortest and au ckest route to Europe),
shows that the demand for freight must steadily improve.
It is a well known tart that the existin; lines running to
ri Ameca have been tar ely remunative it is economicalthe refo e comanage-
n-
fidently beAleved th,t under proper and
ment d with the important interests combined in this
uudertak,ng, a reasonable mercantile profit will be realised.
A large number of passengers of all classes from the east
and south of England and the Continent of Europe will select
this route, and aid further to the success of the Company.
It is not intended at present to appy tor ally postal sub-
sidy. as at is ty lieved the vessels will pay better exempt from
Government co trot. In the event of insufficient emtdoyment
offering et any time during the w nter to Portland, the ves-
sels will be employed in of er trades as circumstances may
require anas mv apnear advantageous to the Company.
Means have beean taken to secure the services of practical
men conversant with the trade. and arrangements will be
made with firms of long experience to manage the ships and
their outfits in Lo don and Canada.
Premises of support to a considerable amount have been
given by merchants here and in Canada. Lout, shares are re-
s rved for subscribers in the Colonies.
'1 he object of the ptincip..l movers in this undertaking is to
sustain and increase the connes ton of the Port of London
with the British North American Colonies, by securing a re-
gular and speedy conveyance ter their goods. No promotion
money will be paid by the Company.
