1.18J1.Cr.. OF Fits COMPANY.

The object of the ;iDlii I;idiaToT;Si3.tnitan ;Limited) is to I
conduct tee planting to India on an extensive scale, in sonic of
the best loantinom estates where the success of the tea plant
ham been already estabileied, and where a large extent of ezlat-
Ingplantstion secures an immediate return, and affords a certain
base for further operations. With this view a provisional par-
chase has been made of eight valuable estates is the tea-pro-
ducing districts of Assam, eachar, Spite; and Darjeeling.
The estates comprise 2,000 acres now to plant abo acres of
whi•di are three years old and upwards.. The crop for the cur- ,
rent year included intim purchase ',guaranteed to be fully 100,000
lbs.. and 600 seaunds,.f nibs. each of to seed .• next year the
crop of tea to guaranteed to be at least :20,000 she. In additiou
to the 2.000 acres In plant there are 40.000 acres of uncleared
lands, adapted for tea plantations. The lands are held el her in fee
simple, or odder grants from goveroment under the old rules,
for ninety-nine yew, at tare nominal rents, and convertible into
free/v.ld tenure on very nay terms. The price of these estates
£156,000, of which one-half is to lie paid in shares of the
Company, the remaining half to Le paid in cash by instalments
cep cad over one year.
PRO. 1 Ili.—The Company will commence its operations with
2,000 acres in plant, and a crop as above stated of liio,oo la. of
tea, besides 300 maunds of tea sent, which Is readily Wahl* at
XS to £lO per naund, if not required for ext-nalons. The pain
on the tea and tea seed produced during the current year, calcu-
lated at present inodentte prices. will wake to pay at last an
eight per cent. dividend on the Mild-UP aililtaL and so huge
area oome into baring the Company's profits will rapidly
Increase. . . . .

The estates have been selected with care by esperieneed par-
ties, and regard has been had not only to the quality of the soli
and its Mama for tea culture, but also to the supply of labour
aad facilities for transport. In many cases the lands have a vr.
Inable river frontage. .

The •verap---Twod;ce of an sere of tea In Irwla, utter five yews,
to from ititilba. to neighs. and upwards. The average price at
which tea of this quality now sells, deducting freight and chem..,
Isla. led. p. r ih., whilst coltivatl•'u and masufscture co t only
AL per lb., and even Wee leaving s net anneal profit of from
Xl3 to Xl6 an atm when the plantation comes Into full bearing.
Where tea of the usual quality of Indian teas is grimrn, each acre
of punks, as it la cteareil suil planted. yields, after live years, a
large annual profit where extensions proceed In the neigh-
bourhood of an existing plantation the expense foe buildings and
supervi.ion is very slightly increased.
The growth of tea will be the chief source of profit. The
Company will prudently extend the cultivation, as them opein.
Wins will greatly augment the value of eta uncieared ester es.
' Ymen the letter of the Calcutta corespondent of The
Times;' which appeared In the'. journal on the ?:nth June last, it
will lie seen that en Immense Reid promote itself in India for
the cultivation of tea, and having regsnl to the present and poo
spective value of the pilantstione transferred to the Company, It
is confidently believed that the profits to the shareholders will
exceed those realised by the Alas= and other Lillian lea
Oompanies.
