ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS.

The Directors of Bonelli's Electric Telegraph Company
(Limited), having established a line of telegraphic communi-
cation between Manchester and Liverpool, the work ng of
which has proved. even beyond expectation, b ith practic tliy
and commercially, the unrivalled excellence of BonellPs
system, propose to extend their operations throughout the
United Kingdom.
Each message is printed by the very act of transmission,
in clear Roman characters, and as so transmitted is delivered
without further process, to the receiver, thus absolutely ex-
cluding all possibility of error between the sender and the
receiver.
The automatic nature and simple working of the Bonelli
instrument renders it independent oft specially trained, and
therefore highly paid manipulators. The charge will be 6d.
tor twenty words.
The necessity to which all other telegraphic establish-
ments are exposed of increasing the staff or operators in pro-
portion with the augmentation of business, does not exist,
and, consequently, any increase of business must prove al-
most absolutely clear profit.
Prospectuses and forms may be obtained from the Bankers,
Brokers, Solicitors or Secretary, at the Offices of the Com-
pany. Each application must be accompanied with a deposit
of Li per share, which will be returned without deduction if
no shares are allotted.
