MORRIS, Esq.. 00, Old Broad-street The expediency of applying joint•stook capital to large trading operations in articles of general use or consumption has been Indisputably proved by the success of the Gutta Percha, Patent Candle, and many other Companies, and the sanction which the Legislature has at length extended to the principle of limited liability removes the objection which formerly existed to such enterprises, as no shareholder is now liable beyond the amount of his shares. The consumption of Cocoa in England has nearly doubled since 1851, as shown by the Customs returns to the Board of Trade. _ _ The Paris Chocolate Company's articles will be manufactured upon the Parisian principle from the choicest Cocoas only, quite equal in quality to those of France and Spain, but produced at less cost by employing skilled Parisian as well as English work men and the most efficient machinery. The Council and Prize Medals of the Exhibition of 1851 were awarded them, and they have been honoured with the patronage of her Majesty. The Company's Chocolates. exclusively supplied at the Central Refreshment Court of the Great Exhibition of 1831, exceeded that of tea or coffee, and upon the quantity there sold the con• tractors realised a profit of upwards of 1,0001. in six months, and at the refreshment rooms of the railway termini they are in con stant demand, the public preferring them to all others. With a connection already formed, perhaps no commercial or manufacturing enterprise ever presented so fair an opportunity for the employment of combined capital ; and from the increasing extension of the home and export trade a very large business may soon be realised, which, as the profits average at least twentytive per cent., renders it both a safe and lucrative in vestment. All the necessary arrangements having been effected, the Company will commence operations immediately after the allot ment of shares, as orders are now waiting execution. Upwards of one-third of the capital hiving already been sub scribed for, applioations for the remaining shares, in the usual form, must be accompanied by a payment to the Bankers of the Company of the deposit of IZ. per share on the number of the shares applied for, for which a voucher will be given: but should no allotment be made to the applicant, the money thus lodged with the Bankers will he returned without deduction. Prospectuses and all further information may be obtained of the Broker, .50, Old Broad-street; and at the Offices of the Com pany. 35, Pudding-lane.
