boil cm in Gordon.
The marble quarries of Carrara are the principal. if not the
only source In &trope from which white and ebbed marble la
procurable.
Fifteen quarries are in high production and extenvivelyopened,
and in addition there ere several other new quarne of the first
importance. The sawmills are distant only tame miles from the
railway station at Kassa, from which a railway leads direct to
the shipping port of Leghorn.
The consideration for the transfer of these several quarries,
together with the sawmills. machinery, and plant id the Italian
Company, and the good-will of its businew, and also including
the Mock of blocks and slabs of marble In Italy, has been fixed at
£5O 0.0, leaving ample capital for the erection of additional saw
