It appears that the number of English limited
joint-stock companies registered ainoe the oommeseemeat
at the present year has been 296, and that their nominal
capital represents 62.690,1501. This total, however, has
little real weight, sines the amount paid up on shares se-
tually issued would probably not be equal to 3 per cent, of
that sum. The Irish oompanies registered is the suns
period have bees only 9, with a Nominal capital of 124,0001. ;
and the Scotch 11, with a nominal capital of 6614,&431. The
smallest °outstay registered is the Aberdare Public Oflloes
Company, with a nominal capital of ()sly 4101., sad the
largest, the General Credit Company, with a nominal
espital of 10,000,0001. The average capital of each English
company is 212 0001., that of the Irish 14,0001., and that of
the Scotch 60,0001.
