LIVERPOOL AND NEW YORK STEAM-PACKET

•
COMPANY.
Capital £200,000. in 10,000 Shares of £2O each.
TH E object of this Company is to establish a Steam Com-
munication between the Ports of Liverpool and New 1 ork.
Its projectors have long entertained the most . ifguine opi-
nions as to the success likely to attend su an enterprize,
when liberally backed by public patronage • and this, the pre-
sent prospectus, it is confidently hoped ill be the means of
inducing, for it is a truism, that with t its fostering aid all
e,.
such associations must signally fail in the attainment of their
object.

Twenty years ago the idea was derided of successfully effect-
ing an intercourse by Steam between this country and Ireland.
Nevertheless, we are now in a position of exposing the fallacy
of so concentrated a view, as science, aided by wealth, perse-
verance, and enterprise have prevailed, and the existing esta-
blishments are in the most prosperous condition.
The assertion, then, may fairly be hazarded, that Steam Na-
vigation, in the really efficient form it has assumed in the pre.
sent day, is capable in an eminent degree of developing the
best resources of those fertile, densly populated, and commer-
cially important districts of North America, (to which the ope-
rations of this Company will be directed,) by affording that
superior facility of intercourse between them and Great Bri-
tain, for which Steam in other parts of the world has become so
justly celebrated, and which, alike to the Merchant and the
Emigrant, must be a matter of the most paramount interest.
The projectors are justifiable in stating, (inasmuch as it is
the expressed opinion of scientific and experienced men,) that,
with suitably constructed and powerful vessels, the run out to
New York may, in ordinary weather, be accomplished in about
Sixteen days. So quick a run by other means, it is believed,
would be without a parallel.
An ample supply of Fuel may be always calculhted upon, as
the great improvement lately introduced in the engineer and
boiler department (the invention of the scientific Mr. Hall) has
caused a most extraordinary decrease in the consumption of that
very important article.
In order to disseminate as widely as possible the advantages
likely to accrue from such an association as this, well, respect-
ably, and spiritedly conducted,—a prominent feature in its for-
mation has been, that of dividing the shares into the moderate
amount of Twenty Pounds each ; thus, not
.precluding the
tradesman or small capitalist from investing in an establish-
ment which cannot but augment the commercial laurels of this
•enterprising community.
The Company will be considered as constituted, as soon as
bona fide applications to the extent of 5000 shares shall haste
been made. _ _

Five Shillings per Share will be required upon installment;
and, in one week after Directors have been chosen, it will be
necessary for Proprietors to pay £2 per Share.into the Union
Bank, to the credit of the Company. The 'remainder of the
calls to be made as the direction may deem expedient, in suing
not exceeding £2 per Share, and at periods of not less than six
weeks between each call. _ .

The management of the Company shall be intrusted to Six
Directors, to be chosen by the Proprietors. Three of the Di-
rectors to retire annually, but to be eligible for re-election.
The holding of Fifty Shares to constitute the eligibility of a
Director, and Auditors shall not be deemed competent to act as
Directors. _

Y'l 'he usual means to secure Proprietors by the restriction of
liability will be adopted.
A Provisional Committee will be formed immediately, to
whom all applications for Shares must be addressed, care of
Mr. JOHN CHEYNE, Solicitor, Lord-street.
(sz?' It is believed, that two of the most speedy and powerful
Steam Ships in the Kingdom can be chartered so as to enable
the Company to commence immediate operations.
