ESTATES OF THE CONSERVATIVE LAND SOCIETY.—FOURTENTII PUBLIC DRAWING. On Saturday, the lith of January, at noon, at the Offices, 33, NORFOLK-STREET, STRAND, LONDON, the Fourteenth PUBLIC DRAWING aniongst the Uncompleted Shares nut yet on the Order of Rights, for priority of selection of lots on the es tates bought for the Coneervatirn Land Society, will take place. All Shares taken prior to the final numbers being placed lu the wheel, up to the time of the drawing, will participate in the ad vantages thereof. The unallotted estates are West Malvern, Worcestershire ; the Rounihhill l'ark, Brighton (second portion), East Sussex; Oat lands-grange, Weybriolge, West Surrey; WoOdbUry-park, TUII. midge Wells, West Kent; Castle-hill, Reading, Berkshire; Mull* slow, close to the railway station ; Totteuhani-green, and St. Mar garet's, Richmond, in Middlesex. A share paid up in fhll is placed on the Order of Rights at once, price 521. ss. Oil., five per cent. interest being allowed on the subscriptions up to the time of the choice of a lot on any estate, such selection being made or not as the member thinks fit. Five per cent. interest is also allowed on subscriptions of a year in ad vance (51. 3s. Gd.) and upwards. Post-oftlee orders for 12s. fki. being the first monthly subscription (the subsequent payments, being Ns. per month, with Is. every three mouths, in addition, for quarterage for the expenses), in the name of Charles Lewis Gruneisen, payable at 282, Strand, will secure the innumediato enrolment of names in the Society's books. The Bonus declared tbr the end of the first financial year, up to the 29th of September, was six per cent. No partnership liability. The system which is peculiar to the Conservetive Land Society, of establishing the Order If Rights by completion, drawing, and seniority, has worked so effectively, that upwards of 2,000 Shares are now on the Register of Rights, of which nearly WO were drawn, and up wards of VS were by seniority. As a prudential, safe, sound, and profitable investment, the claims of the Conservative land So. Arty, presenting as it does well-lialsnced advantages for the smallest inventor as well as the large capitalist, are undeniable. The prompt withdrawal of shares by a member whenever he may wish to draw out his money is insured. The practical super vision of an active executive committee over the whole working of the Society secures fur the shareholders the most juilkdons perelieses id hind, thus enabling the members to acquire eligible around-rents, a kind of investment which is based on the firmest foundation.
