This company is established for two reasons—first, because
it is wanted ; and second, because it will pay. India wants
cheap means of conveyance for her produce; water conveyano e
is cheaper than any possible mode of conveyance by land ; an d
ten thousand miles of this cheap water conveyance will 'be
afforded by the great rivers when properly navigated by stew m.
The last dividend of the Ganges Steam Company was 48 •per
cent. per annum, and the latest returns of a Navigation Com-
pany on the Godavery was 55 per cent. The field, howo•ver,
is far too large to be adequately filled by local effort, and an
English Company is necessary, which, with adequate capital,
Will render available the resources of European science.
