This Company is formed to construct a harbour at Fair Head,
the north-eastern extremity of Ireland, upon a plan acknowledged
to be of the strongest and least expensive character, and which re-
ceived the only reward of its class at the Exhibition of 1851 (Class
7, No. 165).

The shipping interest generally will be greatly benefited by a
Harbour at this place, as tke coast for a distance of nearly 60 miles
may be said to be destitute of shelter or harbours of refuge.
It is proposed to apply for the necessary licence to lay down tke
Submarine Telegraph between the Harbour and the Mull of Cantire
on the Scottish Coast, with all necessary' approaches and communi-
cations, which will enable ships to be reported in Glasgow, Liverpool,
London, &c., ihatitodiafely their sight- the land.
This: Barbour will mainly contribute to the fall development of
the extensive mineral district (hitherto closed for want of such ac-
commodation), and which, combined with the general mercantile
and agricultural operations of that part of Ireland and its near prox-
imity to the Clyde ports, will not fall to make this Company one of
the profitable undertakings of the day; independent of which,
the pr3prietors of the Fair Head Mines, which comprise nearly
4,000 acres adjoining the Harbour, considering the great advantage
it will be to them, have agreed to set aside one-fifth part of their an-
nual nett profits towards the payment of the dividends, by means of
which it is expected that the shareholders in this Company will re-
ceive &minimum dividend of 6 per cent. per annum.
A Deed of Settlement will be forthwith prepared, and an Act of
Parliament, or Royal Charter, will be applied for, to enable the
Company to take tolls, also for limiting the liability of shareholders,
and generally for carrying out the objects of the Company ; the
Directors will, in the meantime, exercise the power of increasing
or diminishing the amount of capital, as may be deemed advisable,
and of commencing the operations as soon as possible. The length
of the works will be in proportion to the amount of capital
subscribed.

The prospectus may be obtained at the Office of the Company,
where alto maps of the locality may be inspected.
Applications for shares upon the printed form or the prospectus
may be made to the Secretary, at the Office, 28, Cornhill ; also at
