PROSPECTUS.

The Directors having received the support of eminent
foreign capitalists, and the co. operation of many of the lead-
ing firms in thi.i country connected with public works, are
already in a position to announce that they have secured a
business which will of itself yield a large return on the capital,
without reckoning the probable profit which they will also
derive from the further operations they have in view.
The spirit of enterprise which has now manifested itself in
foreign countries, with the encouragement given by the
various Governments to the construction of works of public
utility, leave no doubt that there is still ample scope for an
undertaking of this nature. Having secured not only the
influence of those connected with banking establishments in
many of the principal cities of the continent, but the acquisi-
tion of business, which will form the basis of immediate
profitable transactions, the Directors have no hesitation in
introducing. this Association to the public.
The general objects of this company are the same as those
of other compan es of a kindred nature which have been
lately started in this country, and which, by the judicious
employment of capital, h •ve been enabled to secure for the
shareholders such large dividends.
The company will negotiate :-
1. Loans and concessions for railways, and other public
works abroad.
2. Th y will advance money on approved securities, as well
as purchase and negotiate the same upon commission.
3. They will lend money to contractors of position and
responsibility, and facilitate the construction of important
public works.
No promotion-money will be paid, and the amount of the
Directors' remuneration will depend upon the profits made.
With the view to extended operations upon the continent,
the Directors are authorised to publish the names of the fol-
lowing Bankers, as the correspondents of the Company:—
