This Compar4y is formed for the purpose of purchasing the
following val'aable Hotels, situated at Chamonix:--
=L'Hoteloval l'Hotel de l'Union, I'Hotel du Falai/4 de
Cristal, 1' Aotel du Nord, l'Hotel d'Angleterre, l'flotel de
Londres..i'llotel du Mont Blanc.
Aran ge ment s have been made whereby the freehold of the
lands, building's, furniture, plate, wines, horses, mules, and
awill ll the necessary adjuncts for fully carrying on the business,
pass into the immediate possession of the Company on
to cy advantageous terms,
The renown of Charnonbc, for the matchless beauty of the
Mountain scenery with which it is surrounded, has for many
Years past rendered it a favourite rendezvous for tourists
-from all parts of the world, and it is estimated that an ave-
rage of 12,000 to 15,0e0 persons annually visit this spot, the
latter number having been exceeded last year, notwithstand-
ing the aberence of American visitors, who, on the subsidence
of the war would considerably augment these numbers.
Teen as a basis that each visitor remains only hree
days, this gives a total of 45,000; and calculating an average
experiditure of 15s. per day for each person, mcluding, wines,
% gross receipt of £33,750 would be produced, frvm which a

The four principal Hotels have not been built more than
four or five years, whilst the remainder have been erected
about ten Tear,. and have since been entirely renovated.
They contain together ample accommodation for over 530
persons.
By the amalgamation of the Hotels embraced in this un-
dertaking, competition, hitherto entailing. large sacrifices on
the proprietors of each establishment, will cease, the several
Hotels being opened only as the influx of visitors renders
it necessary. The supply of provisions will thus be strictly
m regulated by the consumption, and all general expenses of
management become proportionate to the number of visitors.
The gratuities to guides, through whom cust in was for-
merly secured, forming an annual burthen of some £3,000
on the management expenses of the hotels, will also
be entirely economised, and increase the profits to that
Amount.
The annexation of Savoy to France has materially
changed the present position and future prospects of Cha-
monix, which, connected with the rest of France by an Im-
perial route, now in course of construction, will participate
in the rapid career of improvement and prosperity which,

The attractions of Chamonix have, moreover, been recently
augmented by the discovery that the waters of this valley
possess mineral properties of the highest value. The sul-
phurous waters are identical with those of St. Gervais, whilst,
~,toPographically, Chamonix more favourably situated, and
EA° ferruginous springs am, similar to those of Spa.
As a-place for Hydrops.thic treatment, it will be equalled
by no other in Europe, since it is supplied by the waters of
the Avre and the Mignon, which are of the uniform tem-
perature required for this system, and the or of
an establishment for this purpose will be intrusted to the
-akin and experiience of Dr. Ritterbandt.
Mr. Ferdinand Eisenkramer, proprietor of three of the
Principal Hotels, has entered into arrangements to under-
take the management of all the Company's Hotels.
It is, besides, proposed to provide suitable establishrnen s
on a scale to meet all-future demands, and there is little
doubt that Chamoidx will add to its fame, as a fashionable
resort for tourists, that of being one of the first Bathing and
It-Ydropathic Establishments in the world.
