This Company is formed for the purpose of purchasing an
extensive and valuable grant of Lead, Copper, Iron Ore, and
Slate, en the north side of the noted Ceder Idris Mountain,
known as the Cyfannedd-fawr, in the parish of Llanegryn,
Merionethshire, North Wales, held under lease for 21 years,
at 1-15th Royalty on all minerals (except Iron Ore, at a
Royalty of only 4d. per ton).
The great grant includes numerous lodes of Lead, Zinc, and
Copper - Iron of the best quality, and blende with traces of
Gold—also excellent Slate.
An adit-level intersects several lodes of Silver-lead, or
Galena.
A Copper lode opened upon, gives promise of excellent re-
An Iron vein runs through the entire grant.
An extensia e bed of Slate of good cleavage can be worked
to great advantage.
The Silver-lead, proved by assay, has yielded 40 ounces of
silver to the ton of ore.
Lead and Copper from a shaft at the end of the edit have
realised X 32 per ton.
The Iron vein is estimated to produce 64 per cent. of iron.
The Slate is of superior Quality, and can be cut into pave-
ment, flooring, chimney pieces, dr.c. The streams of water
running through the grant offer great facilities for working,
scouring, and cutting the slate. In fact, a Quarry opened
upon the property will pay well for working.
The foregoing facts and the position of the grant, in a rich
mineral district, warrant the conclusion that, efficiently
worked, the mine is capable of yielding returns equal to those
of the most profitable mines in the Principality.
The property being advantageously situated about half a
mile from the Welsh Coast Railway. from which a siding can
be constructed at moderate cost, and only 21 miles by public
road from the shipping port of Barmonth, affords a facility
of transit which greatly enhances its value.
With these a,ivantages, and adequate water power for
working. machinery, dressing ores, &c, the Directors, after
careful investigation, confidently anticipate that los. per
share upon the capital of the Company wilt be sufficient to
develope the wealth of the mine, and produce profitable re-
sults without further calls.
The Lessee having agreed to take £3,009 in cash, and 5.000
Paid up shares, assigns all his interest in the mine, inc uding
upward s of IGO acres of mineral ground—the previous out-
lay—mining buildings, smith's shop, offices, dregainr, floors,
bucking house, &c., immediate operations can therefore be
commenced when, in the judgment of the Directors, sufficient
capital is subscribed.
Samples of the different ores taken from the mine, reports,
prospectuses, and forms of app'ication for shares, may e
obtained at the Temporary Offices of the Company ; and the
deposit paid on application will be returned if no allotment
be made to the applicant

It has long been felt that Torquay. with its large, wealthy,
and increasing population, and the great number of visitors
who resort to it both in wint• r and summer for health and
pleasure, stands much in need of the accommodation of a
first-class modern Hotel of the character so successfully esta-
blished in London and some of the leading watering places
of England and on the Continent.
This Company is formed o supply this requisite, and a
most Eligible site, upon which the favourite residence of Col.
Meyrick now stands, has been secured for the purpose.
The Hotel, with pleasure grounds of considerable extent
sloping to the sea, will have a southern aspect, and occupy a
situation generally considered the most salubrious in Tor-
quay. Here the invalid may enjoy the benefits of an Italian
winter without losing the comforts of an English residence.
'llse property selected commands one of those delightful
sea views which have contributed to obtain for Torquay the
high reputation it has so long enjoyed.
Provisional arrangements have been made with the pro-
prietor of the Rays' Hotel, whereby the Company will be
Placed at once in possession of a valuable connection and
lucrative business on most favourable terms. The Company
will thus obtain an immediate source of profit, with the op-
portunity of ensuring prospective advantages.
The experience of the last fee years has abundantly shown
that the attractions of the modern first-class Hotel are
eagerly sought after, and havin, regard to this circumstance,
and to the (let, rminatiou of the Directors to combine in every
department a judicious supervision with the highest attain-
able excellence of mana2.ement, no reasonable doubt can be
entertained that the present undertaking, will prove success-
ful and amply remunerative to the shareholders.
Torbay and the immediate Channel have long been known
to yachtsmen as one of the most unrivalled cruising c,rr unr.ls
on the English coast. A valuable accessory will be foont in
the new harbour, the formation of which in the immediate
vici ity of the town is contemplated, and which, when c,m-
pleted, will atlori greatly increased accomm )dation for the
anchorage of yachts.
Application for Shares to be made in the annexed form to
the Brokers rto the Solcitor, and from whom prospectuses
mai also be obtained.
