Tide Company has been formed after much investigation, and under the most able advice and assistance, for the purpose of pur chasing and working several valuable mines and mineral districts in Cornwall, and probably at a future time for the purpose of pur. chasing and working other mines, as well in that county as in Devonshire. The produce of the mines already purchased by the Company is principally tin and copper. These metals arc always In requisition ; their price, though fluctuating, is in every case remunerative, and the supply is seldom equal to the demand. With the increasing prosperity of the country will be the increasing requisitions for th e metals, since, as the commerce of England yearly becomes greater, so must be their demand, not only tor the purposes of ship-building, but for those articles which are made of tin, copper, sad lead, anu which may in fact be called the products of the country. Whilst English capital is at present embarked to a considerable extent in the working of mines in South America, where all the in. formation which can be obtained respecting them must b c e o a few individuals, and where the shareholders in the must therefore solely rely on the statements of others, and may or may not advantageously place their property under the manage. ment of individuals removed from them by the distance of thou sands of miles, it cannot surely be objected to an Institution like the present, that it is visionary and speculative, when the mines ND MUMS in England ; when they are held, not at the caprice of a sew.ihswasd Government, but under laws and tenures established at ages ; and when in a few days--nay, in a few hours. cask diareholder may personally inspect the mines in which RP capital is embarked, and in tile same short period of time immure the alteration of any thing which may be incorrect, and the improvement of any thing which may require eniendatio t. Mx an these the only circumstances which appear to the Directors Ibis Company to give a decided advantage to English Mining Alikeictions over foreign. For in foreign associations mine super. =to and engineers may be inattentive, prodigal, and even t, and the evils may remain long undiscovered, end, even when ascertained, long before they can be remedied ; but at home I the returns are weekly, the accounts rendered weekly, monthly, and quarterly, one set of accounts checked and examined with anther, and if an error is :nearly suspected, in a few hours a Director is on the spot to investigate and report. So again with reference to the returns. Prom the mere circumstances of distance, want of miners, arid of machinery, delay in exportation, and other cause' too numer ous to mention, the returns made by the foreign mining associa tions must be delayed, and in some instances very long protracted. But in English mining associations, and especially in Cornwall, no sooner is the ore raised than it is sold, regular sales by ticket occur every fortnight, lists are made out, printed, and advertised of the quantity and quality of the ore sold, together with the rams of the purchasers, and the prices obtained for the same. For the on sold unexceptionable bills are given, at 30 days' date from the day of gale, and thus every month a profit is arising to the Company, divisible among the shareholders ; and really, with respect to the amount of profit, the English mining associations need not fear to be compared with any foreign objects which are now carrying on. The (hermit, copper mine returned In one year 84,0001. The Wheal Alfred 130,0001. after paving caroms. The Greet Wheal F. ui•rchssed by AS CANC4IIIC.y., Gannet proprietors 160,01104 in tl..e course of a few years. The Wheal Abraham returned the proprietors a het pr tee of 40,0001. in three years, and the Consolidated Mines, uider the direction of Mr. Taylor, have produced with others returus most considerable, and indeed surprising. In every point of view, therefore, English Mining Associations, when properly established and conducted, appear to have a de cided preference over Foreign Mining Associations. With respect to the establishment of this Company, no proper expense and no time and exertions have been spared in selection of mines. Various have been the offers whit's have been made, as well of mines as of mineral districts in Coriwall ; but aided by the very best practical and local mining knowledge, the mines secured are amongst t'ie most desirable of those which have not hitherto, for want of capital, been fully worked. The mines so secured consist of-Ist Wheal Boulton ; 2d, Wheal Nancy; 3d, Wheal Fanny; 4th, West Wheal Vor ; 3th, Wheal Cranver, Oatfield, and Chance, 6th, Wheal Abraham and Wheal Drymm ; 7th, Nest Wheal Wellington ; 6th, Great Wheal For tune; and 9th, Wheal Barnard. 1. Aa to Wheal Boulton copper and tin mine. This mine it situate in the parish of Ludgeon, in the county of Cornwall. Is b a very extensive mine, and has only been partially worked 40 fathoms below edit, and 30 from the surface. It has a powerful water engine, with smiths' and carpenters' shops, counting.honse, sheds, Aa and is now in full work. It has for the last 12 mor the produced very large quantities of rich copper ore, which has leg considerable profits to the shareholders, and a dividend was o iy lest week made among the late shareholders. The mine is situ ite aorth.west of IVheal Barnard, also belonging to this COMIMI ty, and north-west of the rich copper and tin mine called Wheal Rod ney, which is now paying very large profits to the shareholders, sad is bounded on the west by Wheal Navy copper and tin mine. The returns of ore of Wheal Boulton are increasing monthly ; Captain Richards says the ore raised is exceedingly good in cha- Tamer. The water engine has been lately erected, and the build are all new within the last two years. The engine is equal to a 60. inch cylinder, and owing to its being turned by water, which comes from between two mountains, the expense of working it is I only from about 7!. to 81 per month, which in a steam engine of similar power would be nearly 1001. per month, in consequence of 1 the fuel consumed. - (Sigrrd) " Jahns Rooca , Ludgeon, March 16, 1142 !." 9. As to Wheal Barnard' Mine. This mine is situate in a phi mining neighbourhood. corth•west of Marezion, in the cramp air CorowalL It is a very extensive mine, a small pan of which Om been partially worked 30 years ago, at which period mining odor neither so beneficial nor so will known as io ihe present day. As a prwf of the want of skill et that period, the mine has .44 bun vakEed I/ Althorns deep, w..d_that only to a reef small wok and mining marerAkTa being coripldmibly higher in prim tbao dm" are now, as ilia as the stan.it.ril price of copper, which then Only sold far 631. to 701. per ton, cud the priaent price for the same article is 1321:per ton and upwards ; consequently, taking into consideration this greet increase of price, with the iliaimuuon of contingent expenses, as also the superior methods now adopt*d fir exploring mines, it skill at mica evince the great proata this mina must neeevsarily produce to the shareholders on sLe event of this extensive mine being put into toll work. A sulotantially-beily stexm engine.house is now erre:ad on the mine her workmen are now employed. From the evidence teccived by Mr. Sim, .04 of the auditors of this Catopn:ty, from the miners, and who aught be depended on, the character of the tin and copper ore of this mine is equal to any in the country. The grant of ground is very liberal, and being on the sea shore, it mutt , of coirnia, re duce Ora expenses moat considerably, and labour in this district is lower than in the eastern part of the country. The chars her of it is altogether very high, and it is the freehold of Lord Bernard. ppEIiGNIAN MINING COMPANY. —Notice is hereby given, that the DEED fir the REGULA TION of this COMPANY will LIE fee SIGNATURE at the Banking-bowie of Messrs.

By Order of the Directors, April 9, 1345. H. J. BROOKE, Managing Director. N.B. Forms of Power of Attorney may be had on application at Messrs. Frye And Chapman. Of these mines Captain James Thomas thus writes : " South Crenver Mine, 12th March, 1825. " Agreeably to your request, I have inspected South Crenver, Oatfield, and `{'heal Chance Mines, in the parish of Crowan and county of Cornwall. I find in the 54 fathom level, East, on the great lode in South Crenver, a lode 4 feet wide, good ore. 'I he said level West is also a large lode, with good ore in it, so that both these levels are likely to produce large quantities of copper ore. In a winze, sinking under the 54 fathom level, the lode is 3 feet wide, 1 and • half feet very good ore, and has a very fa. valuable appearance; but the 65 East at this time is but poor, and does not appear to be on the main part of the lode: they are now cross-cutting North, to see for the other part of the lode. * The 64 fathom level West, the lode is large and kindly, but at present not rich. Wheal Chance, the prospe cts are very tlattering indeed. In the 54 fathom level the lode is 3 fe4 and a half wide, very good. About 8 fathoms behind the above end is a winze, sunk from the 44 to the 54 fathom level, in which are two pitches, yielding a large quantity of ore, and from the present appearance will produce 20 tons each pitch this month. I consider these mines, when got into a regular course of working, are likely to produce large quantities of ore, and offer to Gentlemen every prospect of success for the i . ..vestment of capital." Captain Richards has also made the following Report : " Redruth, 18th 1825. " Agreeably to your request, I have attended at and inspected the surface, as well as the under-ground department, of Crenver, Oatfield, and Wheal Chases Mines, in the parish of Crowan, and beg to report as follows: " I find the Sump shalt sunk about 5 fathoms below the 74 fathom level, in which the lode or vein is two and a half feet wide with copper in it, and has a favourable appearance. The 74 fathom level is 20 fathoms east of said shaft, vein 3 feet wide, with copper, and a still more favourable appearance. In a winse sinking front a 64 fathom level (on the aforesaid level), the vein has an equally promising appearance. The 64 fathom level is about 75 fathoms east of the Sump shaft, and has passed through a good-looking vein for a considerable length. In the 54 fathom level (which is about 20 fathoms east of the 64) there is a very fine-looking vein, from two and a half to three fret wide, and contains most excellent copper. About 9 fathoms west of the 54 fathom level end there is a wmie brought down from the 44 fathom level, in which there is a pitch working by it men, at sa. 6d. out of 20s. Here there is a most excellent course of copper, front 3 to 4 feet wide, and promises to produce considerable quantities. On examining the returns of these mines I find them progressively increasing, anti will ere long be very much augmented, if the pretest very favourable prospects continue. These mines are situate east and south of that most extensive and once valuable mine of Wheal Abraham (which I am informed gave the adventurers a profit of 40,100 L in three years), and from every information I have collected was, when at the pro- sent denth of Cronver. drx. not near an !iron-lain( to make a f:00 4 MAN. 1 moat beg to conclude by stating, that the localities of these mines are also very favourable." 8. As to Wheel Abraham and Wheal Drymm. These mines are situate in the parish of Crowan and county of Cornwall, adjoining and in the same line of lodes as Crenver, Oatfield, and Wheal Chance, which have produced many hundred thousand pounds worth of tin and copper. The grant is very extensive, and the mine of Wheal Abraham has been worked to a great depth, but is now suspended. It is now proposed to erect a steam engine on the mine called Wheal I)rymm, to work a south lode, which is very promising at and above the adit level, and it is presumed, when the engine is at work, considerable returns of ores will be made with large profits to the shareholders. Of the Mine, Captain Benjamin Champion has thus reported r.— " In compliance with your instructioits, I have examined Wheel Barnard Mine, in the parish of Ludgeoo, which at meow is not worked below the edit level. I toad this Mine has been worked 40 fathoms deep, but at a time when mining knowledge was not so great ea at present. The re; el of those who last worked in the Aline says, that between the 30 end 40 fathom level there is a course of Tin that will alone pay the cast of the Mine. There are also several lodes of Tin and Copper, which, from every appearance, are likely to be equally productive. In fact, sense of the Tin ores were so rich as to be worth from Al. to 61. per barrow of 22 gallons. There ill another lode or vein, called the Crab lode, which has produced considerable quantities of copper, and is likely to be equally productive in depth. Since the Mine la,t worked at the bottom several side lodes have been discovered, which pranks to be equally productive. Not having seen the Mine when it last worked to the bottom. I have collected my information from those who saw it, and of whom I have the greatest confidence. Ail accounts agree that this Mine. when got into a regular course of working, will be one of the greatest in the West of Cornwall." A detailed statement having thus been given of the various Mines secured to this Company, and from some of which a Re venue is at this moment arising to the Company, it is only neces sary to state, that they have been secured on eligible terms; and that other Mines have also hen (iliac& and are now under cor sideration : but before any additional Alines are taken, they will be subject to the same system of rigid investigation and inquiry as those already purchased. The Company is governed by a Board of eighteen Directors. ex clusive of the Chairman and two Deputy Chairmen. The affairs of the Company will be managed under a Deed of Settle:me ; which, when approved and signed by the majority of the Directors, will be deemed the Deed of Settlement fur regulating the Company. An Annual Meeting of Shareholders will be hel.i is the month of April in each year, and the Accounts will be audited Quarterly by the Auditors. The Capital of the Company consists of 500,0001. with dia. cretionary power to the Dimmers to increase the same. The pee sent Capital is divided into 10,000 Shares of 501 each, which have been allotted; and a deposit of 51. per Share upon the Shares is to bepaid into the handsel Messrs. sir Wm.

Of these mines Captain Richards thus reports : " I have attended at %VII& Abraham and .Wheal Dr mm mines, in the parish of Crowan : these have been suspended for some time put ; I could therefore only examine the surface, and notice what have been taken up from the veins when they were last work d. I entertain a favourable result of these mines when put to w irk, from the appearance of the peen or back of the veins, which, in nTy opinion, are similar to those which have made con. siderable quantities of copper in depth. , "fhe situation of those lodes or veins are very favourable, being parellel to those which have been very productive, and which are held by miners as a very favourable symptom.—Rcdruth, March 18, 1823." 7. As to West Wheal Wellington, Crane, and Bejauce Mines. These mines are situate in the parish of C,anaborr.e. in the county of Corrnwal, in a gond mining neighbourhood, and near the great mires of Dalcoath, 'Wheal Wellington, North Korkcar, South Kor kear, Wheal Chance, Wheal Gerry, &c. These mines have pro. duced tin and copper to the amount of many millions, with ernt profits to the shareholders. There is an adit now driving in West Wheal Wellington, where the lode is very large, and promising for copper, but to make an effectual trial of this mine, it will be necessary to erect a steam engine to put the mine in depth. Crane Mine is on the same line of lodes as West Wheal Wel. lington ; the mine has been worked about 40 fathoms below the adit, and produced great quantities of copper ore : but the former proprietors not having befficient fora to draw the mine, they sus pended the working. Bejauce is on the south of West Wheal Wellington and Crane ; one of the lodes has been worked about 12 feet below the adit ; at that level the lode is composed of mundie, copper, &c. which is the promising symptom for copper : it is intended to erect a steam en. gine to put the mine in depth, when there is no doubt the 'mine will prove very productive. %Vest Wheal Wellington and Crane Mines may be worked as one mine, and by one engine, and Bejauce with another, which will save a considerable sum of money. Of these mines Captain Andrew Vivian thus reports : " These mines are situate in one of the most productive districts in the county toe tin and copper mines, and on the same line of many lodes that have and are now Producing great quantities. There are two lodes in West Wheal Vt ellington and Crane, disco. vered in the adit, and a great many fathoms driven thereon, the greatest part of which has a very promising appearance, and will doubtless produce copper at a greater depth ; these can be drained by one steam engine, and must (if worked to advantage) be worked as one mine. There are many other lodes within the limits of the grant of these mines, one of which is discovered in the edit : it is small and nearly perpendicular, and being north of the other lodes, which underlay in that direction, will naturally join the other lodes in deh, and at such junctions many mines in this neighbourhood I have been very productive of copper ore. " There was a small steam engine or crane lodge erected about 30 years ago, and that part of the mine worked 40 fathoms under the adit ; it produced several parcels of copper ore, but cannot may to what amount. This I can well remember, that the standard for copper ore was then very low, and the engine was not of sulS dent power to permit an extension of the workings, and being re quested to inspect the mine just at the time she was suspended, I also remember that the bottom levels were driven but a very in. considerable distance from the engine -shaft, and :he mine alto. gether was on ouch a small tale that no great discoveries could be reasonably expected. Bejauce lode is south of ('rue and Welling. ton lodes, and should be worked separately. The adit was driven on the lode a considerable distance upwards of 30 years ago, and was considered by the miners of that day to be a good speculation. My father (a man of much mining experience) had a good opinion of this lode; there was some copper ore discovered in the edit, and a shaft was sunk 12 fathoms under the edit by virtue of a bone en gine; this power was so insignificant that very little more then the sinking this shaft was done in the mine.

It is a very extensive grant of land, the lease of which has 20 years unexpired. This mine has only been partially worked. It has a shaft sink and edit driven, also an engine-house erected on the mine. It is bounded on the west by Wheal Boulton just described, and the lodes of %Vheal Nancy run into Wheal Boulton. It lies north of 'Wheal Rodney, and it is the opinion of Captain Teague and Captain Richards, that the money invested in this mine will be well employed. The locality of this mine also is excellent, being only about a mile from the sea, and consequently as well for the importation of machinery, iron, fuel, &c. as for the exportation of the ores raised ; it is very eligible. The returns from this mine may soon be looked for, and the ore when raised will find a regular and good market. 3. As to Wheal Fanny. These mines were formerly called Wheal Fanny. Tregagorran Bunicoose, Druid, and Metal Work Mines, but they are now consolidated, and go under the general name of Wheal Fanny. These mines are situate in the parish of Illogan, in the county of Cornwall, in a good mining neighbour. hood, and in the same line of lodes as the Great Mines of Dolcoath, Cook's Kitchen, and Tincroft Mines, which lie in the west, and Wheal Sparnon, Wheal Unity, Poldice, Wheal Gorland, and Wheal Jewell, which lie to the east. These mines have produced tin and copper to the amount of some millions, and very many hun dreds of thousand pounds profit to the adventurers. The lodes east and west of Wheal Fanny - have been the most productive of any in the county of Cornwall, or perhaps in the world. On the west part of Wheal Fanny one of the lodes has been explored to 90 fathoms below the edit level, and produced much tin and copper ore. This Company has now a large extent of new ground in addition to the other mines, which make it a most desirable undertaking for a Mining Company, the extent being more than 2.000 yards in length and 1,800 yards in width, with many good copper and tin lodes unworked, and at an unusually low rate of dues, being one twenty. fourth part ; held upon lease for 21 years from Midsummer Day last. This mine is in a state of great forwardness, an engine shaft being sunk 90 fathoms below the edit in the centre of the mine ; a new engine-house having been just completed to take an engine of 81) inch cylinder, which will be sufficient to effectually work the mine ; the edit level of 28 fathoms deep having been brought to the engine shaft; sundry other workshops having been sunk to the lodes with machinery thereon to draw the ore ; and some sales of ore being soon about to take place, even before the engine is ready to work, which will considerably reduce the current expenses. Of this mine, Captain Richards and Captain Teague, as well as the Cornish Directors of this Omipany, think highly. They concur in opinion, that in front six to eight months, it will be making considerable returns, and that the average of the copper ore of this mine may be taken at 10. The tin ore they also report to be of very good quality. The nearest point of the sea from hence is Port Reath, distant only three miles, and a railroad is sow fOlTattlg from Redruth to Port Reath, which will be within one mile of the mine, and will be of course a considerable saving of expense. 4. As to West Wheal Vor.
