PROSPECTUS.

The leading financial establishments in Paris are the Credit
Mobilier and the Credit Fonder; both of which have stood
the test of experience, and have realised very large profits
for their shareholders—the transactions of the Credit Fonder
being; based upon the Land Credit system, whilst the Credit
Mob tiler embraces general Financial business.
'rue wisdom of this division of operations has been fully
realised by the Credit Fonder for Great Britain and Ireland,
which, sines its establishment., has found the offers of busi-
ness, both of a Land Credit as well as of a general Financial
character, so large, as to necessitate the formation of the
Credit Mobilier (Limited), to undertake such financial opera-
tions as the Credit Foncier, with due regard to its special ob-
jects, cannot legitimately carry out.
The principal objects of the Credit Mobilier (Limited), are
as follows, viz. :
To eo-operate with other first-class Financial and Indus-
trial undertaking a.

- To iiegotiiiied;vernment and Municipal Loans.
To aid in carrying out concessions, based upon Govern-
aent guarantees and subventions.
To make advances to responsible contractors for English
stnd foreign railways, and other public works.
To lend on the security of stocks, funds, shares, deben-
tures and other approved securities, with special reference to
the requirements of the Stock Exchange.
The Cre Mobilier (Limited) will also receive money on
deposit fc,r long or short per oda.
The ',larked success which has attended the operations of
the vs-rious Financial Companies, now in existence, is well
known, and is evidenced by the following quotations of the
market value of their respective shares.

PROS PECT US.
The object of this Company is to purchase and extend the
'well-known and euocesst ul business carried on by the Thames
Iron Works and Ship-building Company (Limited), at Black-

The Thames Iron Works and Ship-building Company
(Limited), was established in the year 1857, and has now
attained the foremost position in the construction of vessels
of war and ships of the highest class for the commercial
marine. The iron fbr these vessels, and for their armour
plates, is manufactured on the premises, together with forg-
ings and castings of the largest class for marine engines,
bridges, and other similar works. The rolling mills, steam
hammers, foundries, smiths' shops, saw mills, &c., are all of
the best class and in the highest state of efficiency, forming
together an establishment unequalled.
Three of the largest iron-clad frigates in the British navy
—the Warrior, Valiant, and Minotaur—have been built by
the Thames Ship-building Company, and orders have been
received for iron-clad vessels for the Danish, Russian,
Spanish, and Turkish navies, some of which are now in course
of construction.
It has been determined to add to the existing business of
the Company two other lucrative branches, namely, Graving
Docks and Engineering, which are naturally and essentially
connected with its present operations. For this purpose, as
'well as for the large and increasing business of the Com-
pany, a considerable extension of capital will be required as
the works advance • and in order to carry out the objects in
view, it is proposed' to transfer to the new Company (subject
theof the dividend for the past year) the whole of
valuable contracts, assets, goodwill, and effects of the
Thames Iron Works Company, together with its liabilities
and engagements, as from the Ist of JanuarY, 1864, in consi-
deration If the payment to the Thames Iron Works Company
of the sum of £275,000, of which the Shareholders in that
Company will take .£150,000 in fully paid-up Shares, and
£125,000 in Debentures of the new Company, bearing interest
at 5 per cent. per annum.
The property of the Company consists of twenty acres of
freehold land on the Essex side of the River Lea, next Black-
well, and the premises and branch works known as the
Phoenix Iron Works, Millwall, together with the valuable
plant and works.
It is proposed to construct two graving docks capablr of re-
belying ships of the largest class, for which the accommoda-
tion on the Rive* Thames is at present insufficient. For this
Purpose it is intended to purchase eight acres of freehold
land immediately adjoining the works, having a frontage both
to Bow Creek and the River Thames, which 1 tnd is, at pre-
sent, in the occupation of the Company, with the option of
Purchase.
The
,/einitproposed new graving docks will be in the Immediate

that Chlorate of rOtaSccaelit, (as prepared by passing chlorine
through a mixture of quick-lime and water, and subsequently
boiling a long 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 there-
fore calculated to supersede the use of iron, mercury, quinine,on.

better than cure ; be, therefore, prepared during the wet and

LOZENGES, which ossess the virtue of averting, as well as
of curing a cough or cold; they are good alike for the young
or for th theed—they soothe bronchial irritation ; and for im-

have long patronised them,

" Sir,—l have much pleasure in recommending your lozenges
to those who Mal, be distressed with hoarseness. They have
afforded me relief on several occasions when scarcely able to

useful to clergymen, barristers, and public orators.
