Thimrsters'of the City of London, with a power to
rilsratilesty to dissolve the Company after eighteen years, by giving
three years notice.
The objects embraced by this Company are the cultivation of
Silk in Great Grind's, Ireland, and the Colognes (except the terri-
tories under the government of the India Company), the purchase
and importation of Foreign Silk, and the establishment of Throw.
ing Mills, which the Charter confers the right to do, in the same
way as any individual subject of his Majesty.
The first object may lid considered in some degree as experi.
mental; the second, as leading to more certain, and more ititas.
distely • profitable results.
The grounds upon which it is supposed that silk may be sue.
cessfully cultivated are—first, the certainty that the white Mulberry
Tree will flourish in this climate ; and, secondly, that the atmo-
sphere may be so regulated as to be congenial to the habits and
health of the Silk Norm, which confidence is founded in the know-
that lett* the atmosphere in which it best succeeds, even in Italy,
is atogethen artificial.
The publication of Count Dandolo's Work has been ordered be
Ibe best authority upon the subject in Italy and France; in aim*.
altration of whom it may be stated, that those experiments in this
Mentry, which have approached the nearest to his system, have met
ilibutitpenrcess.
•311 of the objects of the Company, the importation,
to extent, of the best and most approved kinds of
Al Trees has been secured, sod such as could he found in
dilegdmstry have been purchased; amongst them some hundredsof
ihsedilleten to ten years' growth.
thawed has been prepared for the reception of a large proportion
of diem in the South of Ireland, where eleven thousand trees were
planted late in the spring, which are in the moat flourishing MOW;
a co..siderable number were planted in Devonshire; and masentse
are in train for multiplying and extending such plantations IS dm
autumn.
The climate and soil of the Mauritius are known by experience
to be congenial to this production; and with the view of promotieg
so great a national object, the proposals of the Company have been
acceded to by the Crown, and one thousand acres of land In that
Colony granted to them, with other assistance, upon terms which
the Directors consider to be highly advantageous; measures have
in consequence been taken for funning an establishment thereupon
a considerable scale.
Attention has also been directed to the higher and more healthy
district, of Jamaica, and application has been made to the local
authorities of that island, from whom similar encouragement Is
hoped, particularly as in those districts it is proposed to carry on
the cultivation entirely by free labourers, and in a considerable do.
gree by persons sent from this country.
The advantages also of forming an establishment In Ceylon have
been suggested to the Directors ; but no decisive step has hitherto
been taken.
With regard to the second branch of this great undertaking, it is
proposed to establish one Throwing Mill in this country, one in the
North, and one in the South of Ireland. Estimates, plans, and
sites are already under consideration. Every encouragement is held
out by the Irish proprietor, and success is andeipwed from the in.
messing demand for the manufacture ; it must, however, be uSe.
less to enter into a detail of the advantages to be derived from this
privilege, as the general and increasing prosperity of this branch of
our commerce Is sufficiently known.
The Charter provides that no greater sum than 301. shall be called
for upon each Share, that no call exceed U., with a period of aft
month, betwem each call—lt is proposed that the first call shall be
31. The Directors do not anticipate that the subsequent calls will
exceed 21. each, and they have every reason to hope that three such
instalments will enable them to give full effect to all the objects de.
tailed in this Prospectus.
The Charter also contains full and particular provisions respect.
