This Company which has been established en commandite,
under the French Commercial Law, has for its object the
supplying of Steam communication along the whole sea-board
of the Continent, where trading operations are now carried
on by small sailing ships, which are quite unsuited to the
present necessities of commerce. _ _

- Amongst the lines to which the attention of the projectors
kas boon directed are the following :
From Dunkerque to Havre.
Newcastle to Boulogne.
Liverpool to Havre and Boulogne.
Antwerp to Southampton.
Antwerp by Havre to Bordeaux.
And Fecamp near Havre to London.

Small and inexpensive vessels with auxiliary steam-power
sufficient only to give them the advantage over sailing ships
in point of time and punctuality will be used, nd provisional
contracts have been already arranged for the purchase of
ships well adapted to the purposes of the Company.
Calculations which have been made give sufficient evidence
of the large field for remunerative trade which the services
projected present", and it is confidently anticipated, that for
profitable working this undertaking will prove second to no
mercantile marine enterprise in existence.
The statutes under which this company is formed give to
the Administration the power, in addition to the more usual
business of shipowners, to open a Credit Maritime ; and from
this branch of its trade, which will comprise advances by way
of loan upon cargoes shipped by the company's vessels, it is
believed large profits may be realised ; but this class of ope-
rations will not be entered upon until the capital shall have
been subscribed to a sufficient extent to enable the company
to undertake it effectively.
The Shares aro payable in five instalments of 50 francs or
21. each. The first payment of 2/. is to be made on the allot-
ment: A similar sum within one month front the date of
allotment, and the remaining three-fifths by instalments of 2/.
per Share, at intervals of three months from the second pay-
ment. The three last payments will be called up by adver-
tisement in the public papers, both in London and Paris, and
interest at the current rate of the day will be charged upon
all payments in arrear.
It is proposed to place the second series of 8,000 Shares in
England—the first being now in course of issue in France.
Applications for Shares, accompanied by a deposit of 2s.
per Share, to be made to the Bankers of the Company ; to the
Agents, Messrs. Cunard, Brett, and Austen, 150, Leadenhall-
street ; or to Messrs. Huggins and Rowsell, 1, Threadneedle-
