The Subscribers are informed that, after the passing of this Act,
they will be at liberty to transfer their Shares, and will not be
liable for subsequent instalments or such transferred Sham ; and
that a eostrary statement, made by Mr. W. Broadmead, in an
Advertiwement this day, it a gross misrepresentation. For the satis-
faction of such Subscribers as may feel any doubt on the point, the
opinions of Counsel confirming the present statement, may be seen

List," and stating that " The Book" would be at certain places
for that purpose ; it is proper to inform the Subscribers and the
Public, who may happen to be Shareholders, that the document
alluded to is nothing more nor less than a Deed, whereby the per-
sona who sign it enter into a contract, binding themselves, their
heirs, executors, and administrators, for the full payment of their
several subscriptions of lOU per share, from which they cannot
afterwards retract or withdraw ; and that notwithstanding any sub-
sequent transfer of their Shares, they will always remain personally
liab!e to the full amount a the Shares for which they now sign

THE COTTON IMPORTING and MANUFAC-
TURING COMPANY.

CAPITAL, TWO MILLIONS,
In Ten Thousand Shares of Two Hundred Pounds eaeb.

When human ingenuity has been daily exercised in forming
plans for public attention, it has been matter of surprise that the
great staple article of cotton-wool should have been overlooked, the
weekly consumption of which is estimated at twelve thousand b-gs,
equal to about 200,0001. sterling.
Large and extended as this quantity is, yet the merchants and
manufacturers in the trade are decidedly of opinion, that, prospec-
tively viewed, it is merely in its infancy. These points, combined
with the overwhelming riches which have rolled into the treasuries
of those occupied in this branch of commerce, are substantial
grounds for inviting the attention of capitalists, annuitants, &c.
to participate in ■n establishment, which, from every calculation,
must yield a most satisfactory profit. Steps are now taking to ma-
ture and simplify the plan of these intended operations, and which
will be fully developed at a General Meeting of the Shareholders,
of which due notice will be given.
The Direction is now forming, a List of the Names of the Gen-
tlemen composing which will be sent to the Proprietors when the
Shares are distributed.

Letters will be received, sealed, " To the Cotton Importing and
Manufacturing Company," enveloped to Mr. Charles Kaye,
Dya's-buildings, Holborn.
