DIREI

Messrs. Oliverson, Denby, and Ladie.
THE rising importance of the kingdom of Greece as a
member of the European States cannot fail to have at-
tracted the observation of men of enlightened minds • it is,
therefore, 'considered that an enterprise which is calcufated to
promote the means of intercourse between that interesting
Country and the other parts of the Civilized World will meet
due encouragement.
If we consider the capabilities Greece possesses by the fer-
tility of its soil, by its, large and magnificent seaports, and by
the industry of its inhabitants, it may naturally be concluded
. that she will again rapidly rise to opulence, and to au important
position in the scale of nations, if only proper means are adopted
to render the Passage to that Country as short as possible from
the Ports of England, France, and. Italy.
In order to afford the most desirable communication, it is
proposed to establish a Line of Steam-packets, making the
Port of the Piraeus (Athens) the centre of the Line. One Line
of Packets to leave Marseilles, touching at Genoa, Leghorn,
Naples', and Malta, at which latter place another Line of Pac-
kets will meet the former and proceed to Athens, and from
thence, touching at the various Islands of the Archipelago and
Smyrna, to Constantinople. Thus a person embarking at Mar-
seilles will reach Maita in five days, visiting the intermediate
Ports of Italy, and remaining at each six hours. On the eighth
day he will arrive at Athens, and three days afterwards at Con-
stantinople, making the whole journey in eleven days. •By the
above arrangement au entire communication will be completed
through France, between England and the principal Ports of
the Mediterranean, as well as with the British Possessions of
India, as a Government Steam-boat runs regularly, between
Malta and Alexandria.
The above Plan has been entered upon under the sanction of
his Majesty King Ottiu and his Government, and has received
their warmest approbation and encouragement. They have in
consequence granted to Mr. GEORGE COCHRANE, who has been
some years in their service, the piivilege of running, Steam-
vessels between the Port of Piraeus and the Ports and Places
above-mentioned, exempt from Harbour Dues its the Greek Ports
for twelve years, which will give great advantage to thy Com-
pany.
The Greek Government have stipulated with the Contractor,
Mr. G. Cochrane, to use on their part every endeavour to pro-
cure the abolition or reduction in his favour of the Port-dues in
Malta, Naples, Genoa, Le!horn, &c., which, if accomplished,
would, in the Italian States alone, cause a further reduction in
the estimated expenditure. \His Majesty's Government, with
that consideration it always entertains fur the promotion of legi-
timate enterprise, has given reason to hope, byte communication
made to the Directors, that the Port-dues of Malta will be con-
ceded. The French Government have also entertained the
question relative to the carrying of their Mails, and have it now
under theircousideration. Besides these advantages, the Greek
Government pay the Contractor an annual sum fur die carriage
of their Mail.

Possessed of this Valuable grant, Mr. Cochrane and the above--
named Gentlemen invite the attention of Capitalists to it as a
mode of a secure and profitable investment, and, therefore, con-
fidently propose that a Company should be foiined with a Capi-
tal of £lOO,OOO, divided into 8,000 Shares of El 2. 10s. each, an
Instalment of £2. 10s. per Share being payable on Tuesday,
May sth ; a second of £2. 10s. two Months after the issuing. of
the Certificates; and a third Instalment of £2 three Months
after the said issue,

The Directors will have the entire control of the affairs of the
Establishment, subject to the sanction of the first General Meet-
ing of the Shareholders, and will appoint all Agents, Captains.
and other Officers, enter iuto Contracts for the pnrchase of
Steam-packets, &c., conclude an arrangement with Mr. George
Cochrane relative to his grant, and fur the continuance of his
services as resident Director of the Company at Athens.
The Property of the Company to be, invested in the names of
Trustees selected from amongst the Directors.
Each Director shall hold not less than Fifty Shares. The
Accounts of the Company shall be audited half-yearly. At all
General Meetings each Proprietor shall be entitled to vote ac-
cordirw to the number of his Shares, Five Shares giving One
Vote (but no Shareholder shall be at liberty to give more than

concerns of the Company will be submitted to the Shareholders.
