OBJECTS OF THE COMPANY. The Imperial Land Company of Marseilles (which has been nearly 12 months in course of organisation) is esta blished with a view of purchasing and acquiring land and Property in the important city of Marseilles, the resale of the same, and the acquisition of concessions and privileges connected with the development and improvements of the city and port. In furtherance of these objects, and after long and care ful investigation, various properties have been purchased in the best portions of the city, and where the progress of t he improvements gives assurance of profitable results. PROPERTIES ACQUIRED. follows Pe properties which the Company have acquired are as 1. The Joliette property, comprising about 2,244,000 square feet of building land, exclusive of streets. 2. The Rue Imperials property, consisting of about 9 8000 s quare f ee t. 3 . The Catalans property, consisting of thelhotel, the ' l nParial Club, baths, houses, and building plots, in all about 2,300,000 square feet. 4. The Prado property, consisting of building plots of about 246,000 square feet. It Will be seen, on reference to the map, that the Com- P a nYs purchases comprise the lands to the north of tho " o wn as well as those to the south, with a large extent of seaboard; making a total of about 4,900,000 square feet. MARSEILLES, PROGRESS OF. Marseilles, both in-population and wealth the first maritime city in France, contains a dense population of more than 300,000 souls. During the past year 18,000 vessels, with t ° ll nage of upwards of 3,000,000 tons, entered and leftthe 2a - bour Marseilles commands the commerce of the M editerranean, engrosses nearly the whole trade with "nlgeria, and is the packet station for the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Company, the Messageries Imperiales, and other steam packet companies trading with all parts of the world. It possesses commodious docks and warehouses, 441(1 , by railways, is in direct communication with all parts of France. The old harbour having been found inadequate for the Vapidly expanding commerce of the place, the new harbour of La Joliette, covering an area of 68 acres,was constructed, and is constantly crowded with shipping. It is surrounded Y broad quays , with stately buildings c;:a the north side, luld a new town' is rising rapidly in its immediate vicinity. Bi nce 1860 three other basins have been comstructed, named Du Lazaret, d'Arenc, and Napoleon, which doubles the harbour accommodation of Marseilles. I ‘ ll E EMPEROR'S INTEREST IN MARSEILLES. p l t is well known that his Majesty the Emperor of the Jellch. takes deep interest in the welfare and prosperity of arseille s and the Directors have strong reasons to believe that his Majesty's gracious and special protection may be t he up on t o aid any enterprise having (like ''"e present Company) the object of developing the re sources of the city, and accordingly application is intended able °r ibwith to be made by the Directors to obtain the valu concession for razing the Fort St. Nicholas, and to Izalco the new Catalans Port. RITE IMPERIALE. BY the construction of the Rue Imperiale, which is 80 feet wide, and lined by important buildings, a direct com munication has been.effected between the Rue Canebiero, 0 Exchange, the Ancien Basin or old harbour, and the 1 1 ,!W basin s or d oc k s a b ove men ti one d. Thi s h a s cau s e d ndemolition of large blocks of houses, densely occupied, WhichT circumstance, together with the previous deficiency ; 31 house accommodation, renders the construction of new buildings absolutely necessary for commercial and residen "al buildi purposes, nd and causes an eager demand for vacant plots of ng la. ~. JOLIETTE PROPERTY ACQUIRED. I In this quarter of the town, where the commercial re- Pirements of the growing population are so great, the ;.'°ropany has secured about 57 acres of Freehold Building exclunive of streets—and this under exceptionally ( wourable circumstances, both as respects situation and ' , orals of payment. RUE IMPERIALE. PROPERTY ACQUIRED. ~ or° than 98,000 square feet of this land are in the Rue u nPeriale the finest street in Marseilles. The remainder is situated in the Quartier de la Joliette, commencing at the b o rt of La Joliette, and extending the whole length of the (3 elts, the Basin d'Arenc, the Port Napoleon, and termi nating at the Basin Radoub. These lands are traversed by streets from 40 to 50 feet wide, in connection with the 411 e Imperials by the Boulevard Maritime, and are sur rounded by an industrious and thriving population. - - TERM OP PURCHASE. The land will be handed over to the Company completely levelled, with all the streets and footpaths paved, drainage Complete gas laid on, and provision made for the supply of *Water to ' the topmost storeys. As by the conditions of the treaty for the acquisition of the Joliette Estate, it is stipulated that six years should hgiven, by which time the estate is t o b e covere d w ith llses, the option is reserved to the Company for the "me period, during which it may elect either to pay the P u rchase -money , in one sum, or to make an annual pay flout of equa l ins t a l men ts, extending ove r a per i od of Laity years, with a fixed rate of interest and sinking fund. PROFESS OR D ONALDS ON'S REPORT. Before the treaty for this portion of the property was !tqacluded the purchasers secured the services of Pro fessor Donaldson (late President of the Institute of British Architects) to personally investigate the operations in 1 1 7,?gress at Marseilles, and the character and value of the 'es• A copy of his report accompanies the prospectus. CATALANS PROPERTY ACQUIRED. , The Catalans properties are in the immediate neighbour m?od of tho Marine Residence of the Emperor, and command a l frontage to the sea of about a mile in length. They are ad irablyy situated both for business premises and private ~!-ItILDINGS NOW ON CATALANS ESTATE. hotel'La y first-class houses are already erected; a magnificent (now open), having 140 rooms ; and the Imperial Club in course of construction), of noble architectural ele -"inn, surrounded with terraces and gardens, all laid out toder the Government plan. There is an extensiveDathing d a s t t l a y b . lfshment, often frequented by more than 5,000 bathers f T his district will undergo a radical improvement when °lt St. Nicholas, which separates the Catalan property :° 13 71 the cent re o f th e town, shall have boon demolished, a ..`"? Port constructed, and additional streets made, so asto render complete the facilities for communication between tlro old and new portions of the town. t hThe municipality of the town of Marseilles engage, at tA a 7, own expense, to lay down gas, make Macadamised " a rn us and insure a proper water supply for the houses. ~,Kh'ere are in this quarter about four miles of streets from i u ,fo 50 feet in width, which have been recently opened and i g,nted with gas ; and the Boulevard la (Jorderie (72 feet in 0 1. h, and lately opened for traffic) forms a continuation T he splendid promenade of the Prado. t h ' he district communicates with the Quai de Rive Neuve, centre of the old port, and of the commerce of the 1,17, 11 , by the Boulevard de l'Empereur. All these important to ",a furnish assurances of great success ; and there can be doubt that this portion of the Company's properties will sold at a price which will yield a very large profit. THE PRADO PROPERTY. 4 , 1 1(3 Prado Lands are near the Southe rn R a ilway Station, , a n admirable position, and well adapted for the estab .,.._unlient of warehouses, shops, &c. t . with respect to the value and prospects of these proper )lr, report by Mr. P. Borde, the well-known ampler enee, of In'seilles, accompanies this prospectus, giving tailsde thereon. r,„68 AMOUNT AND PERIOD OF PAYMENTS. £2 668 total amount of purchases is £3,325,163 ; of this sum d : ,: °,618 is payable by instalments spread over various es, and extending in part to a period of 50 years, and °pn _ 656 53 in cas, on taking over the the due estates caution bei 2 no 2• lodged i h n the meantime for e observ e,, of tlie t bompany's engagements. It is therefore ex -I,o`,_‘ed that, with the aid of the Company's borrowing "ers, Lot more than £lO per share will be required on these, shares not fully paid up on allotment. Thus, with a Lave alParatively small amount of capital, the shareholders the advantage of profit derivable from dealing with a very large extent of property. JOLIETTE PROPERTY RESOLD. e • 1 10 e v i dence of the value of the purchases, the Directors nn e , the satisfaction to announce that they have a.ready Ifletoded arrangements with an,association of builders at j c 4fT i lles, to transfer to them one of tho properties (the rt e te Property) at a profit of about £600,000, such pp and profits to bo paid for by Annuities and Sinking p ay ll 'i ro ov i e , r a period of 30 years,with option on theirpart to obi; r . " 1 0 whole at any time during five years, with an galtion on the part of the contractors to deposit a sum of 1 4 :1 1 1 ill ions of francs (£160,000) as caution money, at fixed irs (the first instalment of which was paid on the exe bnild °f the contract), and also to cover the property with 1, 1 ,n 1 813 within a period of five years at their own cost. aud g shareholders will have the benefit of this contract, Ira October, 1867, will receive the income derivable tie g contract, viz., the diff e rence betw e e n the Annul coale`'. °, O paid and rece i ve d b y th e C ompany, an d thi s in lEstatrined to the existing revenue from the Catalans di g t hat ell as to the anticipated profit on further sales period, will, it is estimated, not only enable the N°. 23,001. Directors to continue the payment of the interest at 10 per cent. per annum, but enable them to declare periodical bonuses on the capital called up. As to the Catalan property, having regard to its impor tant position, the command it has of the seaboard, the faci lities it presents for construction of the new port, and its general adaptability for the formation of streets, shops, and private villas, a large and remunerative return may alsol?o anticipated. ESTIMATED PROFIT ON CATALAN PROPERTY. On reference to Mr. Borde's Report, it will be seen that when the various improvements which have been sug gested have been completed, and the Catalan property fully developed, it is estimated to yield a gross profit of upwards of cent. per cent., and this within a period of three years, although the estimates have been based on the more extended period of five years, and that when the Fort St. Nicholas is removed, and the new port completed, this profit will be trebled. MINIMUM INTEREST, TEN PER CENT. As the first payments of annuities and rent under the arrangements entered into with regard to the Joliette pro perty do not commence until the Ist October, 1867, and become payable only in the subsequent half-year, viz., the Ist April, 1868, the Directors have decided to pay in terest at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum for two years, from March, 1866, on the capital called up, and for which four interest warrants will be attached to the share certifi cates at the time of issue (which will be charged to land purchases account). After that date the revenue from the Joliette lands, the rentals from the other properties, and profits on further sales, will be applicable for dividend or bonuses. PAYMENT OF SHARES IN FULL ALLOWED. As some Shareholders may prefer to pay up the shares in full rather than have a larger number subject to calls, application may be made for shares to be fully paid up on allotment. Four half-yearly interest warrants, at the rate of 10 per cent: per annum, will likewise be attached to these share certificates. In the allotment of shares prefe rence will be given to these applications, but the number so allotted will not exceed 30,000 shares, and the Directors reserve to themselves the right in their discretion only to allot 60,000 shares in all on the present allotment. A portion of the shares will be allotted to applicants who are Shareholders in The Credit Fonder and Mobilier of England (Limited), The Agra and Masterman's Bank (Limited), The National Bank, The National Bank of Liverpool (Limited), .To applicants from Marseilles and Paris, and the balance to the other portion of the general public. Applications for shares may . be made in the annexed form, which must be accompanied by the payment of £1 per share deposit, without which no application will be considered. Should a less number of shares be allotted than are supplied for the deposit will, so far as required, be applied towards the payment due on allotment. Should no allotment be made, the amount paid will be at once re turned without deduction.

GRONOW, formerly of the Grenadier Guards, and Authbr of " Recol lections and Anecdotes," " Celebrities of London and Paris," &c. Captain Gronow, who lately died in Paris, has left a widow and four young children, by his second marriage utterly destitute, without means to defray his funeral expenses, or even to purchase bread. Captain Gronow was disinherited by his father, in favour of his brother, a clergyman, and the small income which he derived from the interest of a sum charged on the family estate ceased with his life ; while the sums he received from time to time for his " Recollections" were expended in providing for the increasing expenses of his young family. Under these distressing circumstances the friends of Madame Gronow in Paris came to her aid, and they now appeal to the liberality of her late husband's friends in London, and also to the readers of his Reminiscences, for contributions to enable her to maintain and educate her children.

The German houses and merchants in the Mediter ranean trade have been the chief buyers, and a very considerable business has been done. Most descrip tions of yarns are scarce, and many spinners are deeply under contract for some weeks to come. Prices have been firm at the quotations of last week, and business closes with an upward tendency. For home trade yarns we have also had a firm market, with a fair amount of business at the extreme quota tions of Friday. At the close of last week the cloth market was tame, and continued without much ani mation till this morning. To-day there has been a general inquiry for most descriptions of cloth, espe cially in fabrics suitable for India and China. A very large business has been done in all sorts of goods, and a general advance has been established in prices. Manufacturers could have taken much heavier contracts than they have, but have been restrained owing to pre-engagements. The better descriptions of yarn and cloth, which are scarce, are in very good demand. Opinions continue to vary a good deal as to the supply of cotton. Messrs. Ellison and Haywood, brokers, of Liverpool, speak ing of American cotton, say : " Most people are now looking for a final aggre gate of over 2,000,000 bales, the estimates ranging between 2,100,000 and 2,250,000 bales. If we deduct the average of Wright and Neill's statements of the arrivals so far, or 1,650,000 bales, from 2,150,000 bales, which may be taken as a mean esti mate of the final total, there remain 500,000 bales yet to be received, which, with the stock in the ports, 584,000 bales, will give a supply of 1,084,000 bales from the middle of February to the close of Septem ber (32 weeks), when the new crop will begin to arrive pretty freely. American consumers are understood to hold from three to four months' con sumption, but assuming that they hold no more than ten weeks' requirements, beyond a bare work ing stock, there will remain the wants of 22 weeks to provide for ; these at the rate of 15,000 bales per week will amount to 330,000 bales, which, de ducted from the total supply of 1,084,000 bales, will leave 754,000 bales for stock and shipment to Atoelr likely not oed 54,000 bales,- there' will then - lianin 70;000 b ales, which, with 140,000 bales now afloat, may be ex pected to -reach Europe by the end of October. This will not admit of our own and C ontinental spinners keeping up their present proportionate consumption of American cotton, the above figures giving an average weekly supply of scarcely 25,000 bales, while the present rate of consumption is about 18,000 bales in this country, and 11,000 bales on the Continent. But if the supply of American should fall below the wants of consumers there will be ample imports from India and other places for an average home and export demand of 60,000 bales per week for the remainder of the year. At present the visible stocks are very heavy-560, 000 bales being afloat from India, and 110,000 b ales from America—but as much of this cotton will not arrive until a month hence or later, the market for the next few days will be ruled chiefly by the ad vices forthcoming from the United States ; m ean while we can only repeat the opinion expresse d in our last report, that the true policy of consumers will be to operate as cautiously as they have been doing of late." Messrs. John Slagg and Co., in this day's report of the say :—" We have to-day a very general and large offers are made, in cloth-market, inquiry, many cases at a fair advance on last week's rates. The lengthened time of delivery in many eases pre vents orders being placed, but on the whole a fair business has been done, and we quote the market decidedly firmer." CARDIFF, sth.—The coal trade has not been in a better position for some time than it is at present. The collieries of the district are in active operation, and proprietors are so well supplied with orders that there is every probability of the present briskness continuing. Considerable exports are being made to the foreign markets, and with the continent espe cially a good business is doing. There is an increase d tonnage of steam sent to Birkenhead and the metro polis from the Aberdare and the Rhonda Valleys. The iron trade rules somewhat flat, still makers are keeping their worksgoing tolerablyregular, but they are looking out for orders, which come in rather slowly. LEEDS, Gth.— The weather, being cold and snow falling, has tended to limit the attendance of buyers in the cloth halls this morning ; nor was there the full number of country clothiers present. Yet a fair bnsiness was done, and the goods sold included both ordinary plain cloths, as well as rneltons and tweeds. The latter two classes, in plain as well as fancy makes, continue to find tolerably ready purchasers in the public market ; while the manufacturers are well engaged on orders for early delivery at the mer chants' warehouses. As to prices, they are firm, with an upward tendency quite equal to the advance which has just taken place in the ratesof awool.par for NorrINGIIA3I, 6th.—To-day being set n a t al y f s u the 3 e n cattle . bhumiliatiuosnineasnsdin i t ) h ra e y t e e r w c i :i i n w a a s c c p o a u r plague, At our Exchange-hall there was a moderate attend ance, and the demand for lace yarns was fair, at quite recent H rat o e s s ie ; ry in some cases a small advance was s of all kinds qu it e as yarns dea were r.

ROCHDALE, sth.—Several days of wintry weather have restored a healthy tone to the flannel market, and buyers from various parts of the country were present after several weeks' absence. Consequently more business was done than for a long time past, and should the frost continue something may yet be done to compensate for the dulness in the plain trade especially, which has so long pre vailed. Some good parcels of fancies as well as gene ral goods were disposed of, but in the heavy department there was little or no impr ovement. Prices are as heretofore, but the value of wool is getting up. woollen t or ia w (ADVERTISEMENT.]—HoIIoway's Pills. backs.—Whence fogs spring or whither they retire it is not our present purpose to explain; wed — e :ra j 12 to T oi D nt r out how their ill effects on the human frame can be neutralized.

Barclay, Bevan, Tritton, Twells, and Co., 54, Lombard-street, E.C. SECRETARY (PRO TEM.). J. C. Deane, Esq. This Company has been established for the purpose of executing in tho course of the present year the great enter prise of laying a submarine cable between Ireland and New foundland, so as to connect telegraphically the Old World and the New, and to raise the cable partially laid last year, in order to complete a second line to America. Tho circumstances attending therecent attempts to carry out this work have greatly increased the confidence of all those who have been engaged in it, and they are convinced tharthis renewed effort will be attended with success. The whole length of 1,212 nautical miles of cable laid from the Great Eastern in July last, continues perfect, according to the daily reports of the electricians in charge at Valentia ; and the observations taken by Captain James Anderson, of the Great Eastern, and Staff-Commander Henry A. Moriarty, R.N., have determined the position of the broken end with the utmost accuracy. Mr. Canning and the other engineers engaged in the late expedition are confident that with the machinery and tackle now being prepared they will be able to raise the cable, and complete the line to Newfoundland. The 1,070 nautical miles of cable, which has remained on board the Great Eastern since August last, is certified to be in as perfect condition as when it was shipped. The Atlantic Telegraph Company had arranged for pro viding the funds necessary for resuming the work by an issue of new 12 per cent. First Preference Shares ; but hav ing been recently advised that such issue is not authorised by their acts of Parliament, the proposal has been with drawn and all the subscriptions are being returned. It has therefore been decided that, for the purpose of aid ing in the completion of this important undertaking, an entirely distinct Company shall be formed, and this Com pany is accordingly formed with valuable privileges, here inafter specified, secured to them by agreements with the Atlantic Telegraph Company, and the New York, New foundland, and London Telegraph Company. A copy of the Memorandum of Association, which has been registered in accordance with the Companies Act, 1862, is annexed. The effect of the agreement entered into between the Atlantic Telegraph Company and this Company is that the latter undertake the construction for the former Company of 1,660 nautical miles of new cable to be added to that now on board the Great Eastern, and from that vessel, between Ireland and Newfoundland during the ensuing summer, and for the adoption of suitable measures for raising and completing the broken cable of last year. This Company also engage to work both cables, or either, as the case may be, as the agents and on behalf of the Atlantic Telegraph Company during the continuance of the agreement; and the agreement further provides that in consideration of the engagements so contracted by this Company, there shall be an annual payment by the At lantic Telegraph Company to this Company out of the earnings from the working of the cables of £125,000, the arrangement being that the receipts in each year from all the Atlantic Telegraph Company's lines aro, after paying expenses of repairs, management, working, and direction, and interest (not exceeding £5,000 per annum) on the de bentures of the Atlantic Telegraph Company, to be appro priated thus : First. In paying to this Company £125,000 per • annum. Second. In paying £72,000 per annum (represent ing 8 per cent. on the Atlantic Company's exist ing Preference Stock and 4 per cent. on their ordinary Stock) to the Atlantic Telegraph Com pany, and Third. The entire balance of each year's receipts is to be divided between this Company and the At lantic Telegraph Company in equal shares ; but no deffoiency in respect of thrrMove annual pay-, ments in any one year is to be carried forward to another year. The right is reserved to the Atlantic Telegraph Company of terminating the agreement on or before the Ist January 1869 (on giving three months' notico to that effect) by payment to this Company of the sum of £1,200,000, being double the amount of its capital. If, however, the Atlan tic Telegraph Company exercise this option, the Anglo- American Company will have the right to take payment of the £1,200,000, one half in cash, and one half in ordinary Atlantic Telegraph Shares at par, instead of the whole amount in cash. In the event of the Atlantic Telegraph Company exer cising their right of redemption by payment of the above named sum of £1,200,000, this Company will be forthwith dissolved and the funds distributed amongst the share holders. The New York, Newfoundland, and London Telegraph Company, with a view of securing the completion of tele graphic communication between Ireland and Newfoundland during the present year, have by their Deputy-Chairman, now in London, agreed to contribute £25,000 per annum to this Company out of their share of the receipts, for through messages between Ireland and America, and passing over their lines. This subsidy will terminate upon the pay ment by the Atlantic Telegraph Company of the .L 1,200,000 above-mentioned, or upon both cables ceasing after 31st December, 1866, to be in working order for twelve succes siveTl ramificationheagremetnhre. T months. agreement has been forwarded to New or York rma sumfof o up the financial arrangements, the effect will be as follows : The shareholders in this Company will be entitled to £125,000 a-year out of the earnings of the Atlantic Tele graph Company's lines, and t .£25,000 a-year out of those of the Newfoundland Company for through business, to gether £150,000 a-year upon a capital of £600,000, making 25 per cent. per annum. But this by no means represents all the advantages which may accrue, as, according to the calculations that have been made, it is confidently believed that even with a single cable and a low tariff the revenue) will afford a large additional sum for division. An esti mate, drawn up by practical and experienced telegraphists, of the probable returns is annexed. The Directors have great confidence in recommending this undertaking to the public. The Telegraph Construction and Maintenance Com pany will manufacture the new cable and undertake the actual execution of the work contracted for by this Com pany, as above stated (up to the openin of the Atlantic Telegraph lines for p u bli c business), for a total sum of £600,000, with a bonus, to be provided by the Atlantic Telegraph Company, under theiragreement with this Com pany, of £137,140 in ordinary shares of the Atlantic Tele graph Company, payable by instalments, extending over 14 months, in case the cable of last year is successfully com pleted, and continues in working order during that period. In the possible contingency of the new cable not being successfully laid, £500,000 only will be paid to the Tele graph Construction and Maintenance Company, and this Company will in that event be entitled to the value of all the unused and recovered cable (subject to the payment of certain specified charges thereon), and it is estimated that this arrangement will provide, in case of failure, for a re turn to the shareholders of this Company of at least one third of their paid-up capital. The whole of the deposits on shares will be returned to the subscribers if two-thirds of the capital of the company are not subscribed, or if the agreement with the New York, Newfoundland, and London Telegraph Company is not ratified by them. Copies of the Memorandum and Articles of Association can be inspected at the counting-house of Messrs. J. S. Morgan and Co., and Contracts at the offices of Messrs. Bircham and Co., 46, Parliament -street. Applications for shares are to be made in the accompany ing form, and the deposit of £1 per share paid to Messrs. J. S. Morgan and Co., 22, Old Broad -street. Should a less number of shares be allotted than is ap plied for, the deposit will, so far as required, be appropri. ated towards the pa:, ment duo on allotment. If no allot ment is made, the amount deposited will be at once re turned without deduction. 6th March, 1866. • ANGLO-AMERICAN TELEGRAPH COMPANY (Limited). The Directors cannot of course bind themselves at pre sent to any tariff for messages. The amount to be charged will be a matter for consideration hereafter. But it may be safely assumed that it will not be less than ss. per word. Working at ss. per word, only five words a minute, 24 hours per day, and allowing 300 working days for the year, there would be a gross revenue of £l,BOO a day, or £510,000 a-year. This is for one cable only. The highest authorities in electrical science give it as their opinion that eight words a minute could easily be obtained through the Atlantic Cable. And there is every reason to anticipate that at a tariff of anything like ss. a word there would be more messages offered than the Com pany could transmit.
