ABRIDGED PROSPECTISB.

There Is probably in worllloll,TialeXthe Introduction of
capital at the same time so large, so We, and ao profitable as
that presented by the Ottoman Empire.
The general aspabilities of the empire are so vast, and the
means which Its varied productions oiler foe Um profitable in-
regiment of capital are a, extensive, as to create astonishment
that In these days of Joint stock enterprise such a lucrative field
should have been left so long unoccupied.

The Ottoman Goverssnent teat the present time wiring con-
siderable attention to the formation of public works, such as
runways sad horse trainroads from the Interior to the coast the
cultivation of silk and cotton: wising operations, and the
draining of marshy grounds; and—as immediately cunducite to
the extension of the export trade—the Improvement of Inland
nsrigatkm, and the means of land transport.
Yor the accomplishment of these objects, however, the capital
of the country Well is wholly inadequate, as there is no efficient
machinery aysibible by which undertakings on a large and col-
lective scale can be accomplished.
To supply this want the Ottoman Financial Aasociation Is now
formed.

---ITfsnot, of course. the intention of the Direness to undertake
on their own account the &cloaca:l.7llm out of public winks in
Turkey. It to believed, Anises er, that by their assistance the
development of the great natural resources of the country will
he encouraged. a taste for industry end enterprise will be pro-
pagated. coulatenoe emougst the people will be gradnelV W-
infred. and the vast sums which are now uselessly hoarded all
over the country will be prontahly employed, through the
medium of the Association, in promoting these public works
which are so necessary to the extension of trade and agriculture.
The Company will negotiate such concessions as may be
granted by the Ottoman Government, and assist industrial en-
terprises, public work; and railway undertakings in the empire.
Cotton, which formerly was the great staple of export, can be
grown to an unlimited extent In Turkey and the Gunmen
Government has sow determined upon bringing into requisition
all the waste lands available for its cultivation. In the year
1861 the cotton crop of Turkey was estimated at 20,000 balm : In
1,41. at 60,000 bales ; while it Is confidently asserted that this
year's crop will yield between 200,000 and 400,001 bales.
The Financial Amoctatioa" will, by pecuniary
assistance to the native filen/re, encourage as far as possible
the growth of cotton In the Ottoman Empire. The rates of
interest charged by the native money leaders vary from I yy to 4 per
cent. per month 118 to per cent per annum , yet the sums
advanced are always paid in full by the peasant. Care Is inva-
riably taken to have ample value to meet all contingencies, and.
besides the deposit of the farmer's title deeds, the chiefs or com-
munity of the villages frequeutly become - collectively or indi•
videslly—subetantiel gusrentees for the loan.
The chief office* of the Association will be la London. Branches
will be opened in Contanllnople. salmon. and Beyrout : agencies
or branches trill be subsequently formed in the more important
towns of the empire.
Application for shares may be addressed in the annexed fonts
to the Director, and copies of the proepeztu.s may be obtained
at the temporary °Meet ~f the Comp my, or at the offices of the
Broken and Solicitors ; brat no application will be considered
unless a deposit of £1 per share on the number of shares applied
for has been paid.
