ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS.

The object of this Company is to purchase and work an ex-
tensive *old mining property, called Rossa (Roca) Grande,
In the 'province of Minas Ge,:aes, Rrazil. It is estimated
as containing about 21 square miles, in the vicinity o: the
eeleb, ated mine of the St. John rel Rey Company. The
purenase money is to be £15,000 in cash, and an equal amount
in ',hares.

Captain Thomas Treloar, in his elaborate report, says—
" The rock 1,, chi fiy clay and talcose slate, of that character
which is hig:nly congenial to auriferous formations, and when
I add ths.t the lodes are not very far distant from the
junction of the slate and granite, every experienced miner
will understand its significance. Gold mines in Brazil, as
well r,s copper ani, tin mines in England, are valueless when
tar from the mysterious effect of the junction of these great
roe:ks.

" The estate contains three distinct auriferous formations,
which may be traced for miles, besides a rich jacotinga
unexplored. Diamonds are said to have been found at one
Spot.
.• The first rock formation is of white quarts and iron, and
has yielded from half to five ounces of gold per ton ; the
raecon d is of yellow quartz end auriferous arsenical pyrites,
and has afforded upwards of six ounces of gold per ton.
" The third is of quartz and brown oxide of iron, and about
26 feet wide. In depth it will probably graduate into a
pyritic-rock formation similar to that of th St. John Del
Rey Company's ‘,ine at Morro Velho. The whole mass of
this lode is auriferous, and portions of it have yielded 50
oitavas of gold per ton. It only requires capital. economy,
and practical •xperience to make those lodes as remunerative
as the Rock Mine of the St. John Del Rey Company, which
has already paid £673,710 in dividends, and one share in
which with £l5 paid, is now worth £52."
Full reliance is to be placed upon Capt. Treloar's report,
-from the fact that he has ha t 16 years' experience in Brazil.
in the service of he St. John Del Rey Company, and is chief
engineer to the Don Pe& o North Del Rey Gold Mining Com-
pany, which, ueder his management, has paid a dividend at
the rate of 10 per cent on its first nine months' working.
Capt. Palley. who has long known nOBB4. Grande, confirms
the above report. The late Mr. George Vincent Duval,
Brazilian Mining Commissioner, also, in a work written by
him, t vourably mentions Rosa Grande, classing it with
Morro Velho (Si. .Tohn Del Rey), and says—" Those mines
might be aptly tf rmed gold quarries."
Prospectuses and copies of the reports, with a map, and
forms of applications for shares, may be obtained of the
broker, of the solicitors, or at the offices of the Company.

ON CHLORATE OF POTASSA AND ITS USE IN OXIDISING

THE BLOOD.
TAR. S. P. SARGEANT. M.R.C.S., and L S.A.
(1836', will shortly repeat his Lecture on this subject
at St. James's Hall, Piccadilly, and will satisfactorily prove
that Chlorate of Potassa, (as prepared by passing chlorine
through a mixture of quick-lime and water, and subsequently
boiiing a iong, time with Chloride of Potassium) is a most
active remedy for oxydising the blood, and restoring vitality
to the low, vitiated state of the nervous system, and is theref-
ore calculated to supersede the use of iron, mercury, quinine,
and sarsaparilla. - 56, Gower-street, Bedford-square, London.
