TRANSATLANTIC STEAM NAVIGATION.
THE Public are informed, that, arrangements having been
for some time in progress, the Establishment of an inter-
course by Steam Navigation, between the United ISingdom and
America, is now about to be brought into operatink under the
Provision of the Acts of the 6th and 7th Geo. V., incorpo-
rating "THE AM E RICAN AND COLUNI L STEAM
NAVIGATION COMPANY."

CAPITAL £600,000, IN SHARES OF

EACH.

Under these Acts, the liability of Proprietors is limited, so
that "the Subscribers, and their several and respective Heirs,
Executors, Administrators, and Assigns, shall not be liable to
any Debts or Demands of thel Company, beyond the amount of
their several and respective Subscriptions."
Arrangements have also been made to secure the advantages
of co-operation with the CITY OF DUBLIN STEAM PACKET
COMPANY, and of their experience in the management and bu-
siness of Steam Navigation. A regular communication will
hereafter be maintained between America and the United
Kingdom, and Stearn Vessels of the most improved description,
with engines of the largest power, %rill start periodically be.
tween the Ports of Liverpool and New York.

With respect to the probable expenditure and returns, and
general effecting the objects contemplated by an intercourse
with the United States, the Public may be assured, that the
Directors of the CITY OF DUBLIN STEAM PACKET COMPANY,
who have associated themselves with the arrangements in pro-
gress, would not have done so except under a ful conviction of
their practicability and success. It is enough to say, that the
great extension of the intercourse in Passengers between these
countries and America, the improved state of Steam Naviga-
tion, and the increased quantity and value of those Goods on
which an adequate freight would he paid, coupled with the
strong desire expressed in the Manufacturing Districts of Eng
land and the European Continent, to favour an Improved
-means of Intercourse with the United States and British Ame-
rica, give ample assurance of a satisfactory return on the Capi-
tal to be employed.

A question of establishing, on the Coast of Ireland, a Packet
Station, for the conveyance of Government Mails, Despatches,
Troops, Stores, &c., having been considered in Parliament, the
Company will also avail itself of the advantages and profit
arising from such additional communication; and which would
naturally attract, through Manchester and Liverpool, the per-
sonal intercourse between the Continents of Europe and
America.

As this Company propose hereafter, as far as their capital
ma}• warrant, extending to other Foreign Ports, besides those
of North America, the intercourse by Steam Navigation, it is
intended that the class of Vessels to be constructed, shall be
equally available for those Ports.

The first Act (the 6th Geo. IV.) was obtained by an influen
tial body of Proprietors, among, whom were many naval officers
of the highest rank and experience, and with the express sanc-
tion of his Majesty's then Government, under a confidence of
the great advantages that would result from an improved inter-
course with North America and our Western Colonies by means
of Steam Navigation, and which, the Proprietors conceive, cart
now best be effected in connexion with the interests of Liver-
pool and the Manufacturing Districts of Lancashire and the
North of England.
In the detailed Prospectus published at the time of passing
that act, those prospects and advantages were satisfactorily ex-
plained. Steam Navigation, however, had not then arrived at
that Foint which could enable those enterprising individuals
who originated the measure to carry out, practically, the great
objects which they, nevertheless, clearly saw would one day
result from the undertaking.
Steam Navigation, in fact, had not then put forth those gi-
gantic and commanding powers which it has since so success-
fuly exerted. '['he crossing the Atlantic was expected to be
accomplished most effectually and economically by the com-
bined and alternate use of Steam Power and that of Sails, as
the weather, or other circumstances, might render expedient.
With this view the first vessel contracted for under their act
was furnished with two engines of only fifty horse power each—
a power now manifestly inadequate to the undertaking, and,
under the present improved state of Steam Navigation, deemed
scarcely sufficient for crossing the Channel. It is unnecessary,
therefore, further to inquire why the Company did not then
effect the great objects contemplated by its spirited projectors.
Under these circumstances, and seeing that the time would
arrive, when the difficulties against which they were then unable
to contend would he removed, the Directors judiciously procured
the iramended Act, (the 7th Geo. IV,) providing for a temporay
supension of their operations, until they should be enabled to
proceed through the improvement of that great power which v.as
to be the main-spring of their undertaking, and which within,
the last few years has been so rapidly advanced towards perfec-
tion.

The remaining original Directors and Proprietors of the Com-
pany, thinking the time has now arrived when their objects may
successfully be prosecuted, propose to bring these Acts into full
and active operation ; and which measure, the public voice ap-
pears already to sanction by an anticipation of a favourable re-
sult, and a determination to support the undertaking.
For the purpose, therefore, of effecting the above objects, and
as it is important that no delay should take place in adopting the
necessary measures, a Provisional Committee has been arranged,
consisting of the five remaining original and qualified Directors,
together with the following other influential and experienced
Persons, with full powers to act until the present and future
funds and management of the Company shall be placed under
the provisions of the above-mentioned Acts. Four Managing
Directors have also been appointed, who will forthwith make
the necessary arrangements for giving effect to this important
undertaking.
