ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS.
This Company has been formed with the view of develop-
ing the Agricultural, Manufacturing, Commercial, and Mine-
ral resources of Ireland, and providing for that country those
pecuniary facilities which have so much contributed to the
advancement and prosperity of the other portions of the
United Kingdom.
It is proposed that this Company should act
I. As a Finance Company, for neotiating and making ad-
vances upon approved real and personal securities, receiving
moneys on deposit, &c.,
2. As a Land Credit Company, for buying, selling, making advances on and dea Lig in real property of all descriptions,
ae-, &c.
3. Asa Land Improvement Company, for reclaiming, drain-
ing, and improving lands, 43e.
4. As agent, for affording facilities for the associat'on of
capitalists desirous cf tatting a limited interest in remune-
rative undertakings of a local character, either privately or
by introducing them to the public.
The want of this Association has long been experienced by
those most competent to form a sound judgment on such a,
question, and the time has arrived when such an undertak-
ing can be successfully carried out.
Full prospectuses and forms of apOications for share 3, in
the term annexed to the prcspectus, may be obtained at the
bankers, brokers, solicitors, and of Messrs. G. IL and A. T.

1. The object of this Association is to promote and en-
courage the monetary, financial, and industrial undertakings
of the kingdom of Italy.
2. Whilst the territorial and commercial development of
Italy has been so great, and has lately been so much en.
larged under the influence of the constitutional system of
government, and the recent liberal treaties of commerce,
capital is imperatively required for the development of the
vast material resources of the kingdom.
2, There are few countries which present so extensive
and profitable a field for the safe and remunerative employ-
ment of capital.
4. A very important operation will at once recommend
itself to the attention of the directors, and one which will
be within the province of the Association—the negotiation
with the Italian Government for the proposed sale of the
Crown lands.
6. The operations will embrace—the negotiation of Go-
vernment and municipal loans; advances upon all securities
affording adequate guarantees, and financial accommodation
to the concessionaries of, or other parties interested in rail-
way and other important public works. These works are
frequently undertaken by local municipalities whose en-
gagements are guaranteed by the isssue of obligations or
debentures, secured on their revenues. These securities
have always sustained their value in the monetary
marlfets.
6, lAs an evidence of the rapid advance which Italy has
made in her trade and commerce, it is shown by the official
reports that the declared value of the imports and exports
of the kingdom now amounts to upwards of 80 millions
sterl
18 B.sing, being an increase of £20,000,000 beyond the value
in
7. An association of this nature so much required, and
being introduced upon a scale commensurate with the great
resources of the Kingdom of Italy, will be most favourably
received by the Government, as well as by the commercial
community.
8. Important relations have already been established
with influential banking houses and cnpitalibts in Italy,
with a view to the immediate commencement of the busi-
ness of the Association.
9. The seat of Administration will be in London.
10. In the event of no allotment of shares being made,
the deposit will be returned in full. Shr uld a less number
of shares be allotted than is applied for, the deposit will he
made available towards the payment on allotment, and the
balance (if any) returned to the applicant.
