Directors have the satisfaction of announcing that the

enn as 'possible.
Before embarking in the present undertaking the Directors
had uotonly satisfied themselves of its eminently profitable
nature, but they had secured -for it the marked co-operation
of the Indian Government, by the acquisition of a subsidy;
cod the Government, both by the gift of land for stations,
Workshops, and depots, of wood for fuel, and in every other
Way, has rendered every possible aid to the present under-
taking. At the same time the Directors have insured com-
plete exemption from Government control and interft,rence ;
and this is the only Company so distinguished which pos-
sesses any Government support.
The Directors have the satisfaction of finding that not only
the Reports of the Company's servants in India, but the
Whole concurrent testimony of the advices received from that
country, through whatever channel, completely confirms the
favourable anticipations they long since formed of the profit-
able character of the present undertaking. It would be im-

The Directors have all along felt that , neither the vessels

are at present in preparation, could do much to satisfy the
great want bf Inland Steam Navigation which exists in that
ec,.ontry. But they have also all along felt that the only safe
ev of entering upon such an undertaking was not to rush
Pro it with sanguine precipitation, but to advance with gra-
jiaal and cautious steps, and without being dazzled by the
ielrgere,ii:arrozect of profits it holds out. The first steps, how-
been successfully taken, the whole of the exist-
,,l!Z Shares in the Company having been allotted, and being
a premium in the market, and the field being so large as to
bcquire a large capital to work it in an efficient manner, the
'rectors are of opinion that the time is come when the capi-
-4S of the Company may be advantageously increased, and
they have, therefore, resolved to raise the capital to half a
million sterling without delay.

vlrectors, at the offices of the Company, 9, Billiter-street,
London,ow or before the 28th day of February next.

The New Shareholders will stand on precisely the same
