METROPOLITAN BOARD OF WOR:

The ordinary weekly meeting of the MetroPll'
tan Board of Works was held on Friday, at thee'
offices, Spring-gardens; Mr. John Thwaitet's till

chairman, presided. it
The cash statement showed that the balance° b,
the hands of the treasurer were on current accoti
£68,939 Bs. 9d.; on deposit accounts, £49,970; tin
on Government securities, £78,110 Hs. 3d.
Mr. FREEMAN brought up the report of ti;tl
main drainage committee, which recommend..
That the board do apply to Government to IP'
traduce a bill into Parliament during the Prde
sent session for increasing the borrowing Pet
of the board to the extent of £1,200,000
main drainage purposes, with a Government g
rantee, similar to that contained in the Main Plit
age Act of 1858." He explained at some lengto,
4
the reasons why there had been an excess of cape d
diture over the estimate. Many circumstances '0
arisen which were never calculated upon, sack
covering in sewers, &c. ; but, with the exceptions
those extra works, the original estimates bed the
been exceeded. He moved the adoption ef
report.
r °
Mr. BIDGOOD seconded the motion, and a.-13
conversation in which all parties concurred, it IC

unanimously agreed to. -
On the motion of Mr. FREEMAN, the report to
.
referred back to the committee to carry 10

execution. the
Mr. FREEMAN brought up the report 0-f
adThames Embankment committee, submitting ci
approval an agreement between the beard 60,
Messrs. Doulton and Co., and Messrs. Stiff, 111810,
ference to their compensation for loss, injury, co,
by the Southern embankment. The agreement boo)
vided that those gentlemen should give uP 9"-the
one-third of their manufacturing premises t°,
board, and that the board should hand over a P,lceiej
of land situated between their premises to be diTujoi
between them. The board would have to porch
that land, clear it of the buildings on it, and R,
it over to those gentlemen six months before l'it•
required their premises for the Thames Eelltio
meat. The board ate° agreed to make four 00'4
under the Embankment, and two subways up Ot-o
premises, so as to give them water way to calted
their business. Mr. Hunt was to be aPP'sr
arbitrator between the parties to assess the :so
pensation to be paid to Messrs. Stiff and Do be
for the inconvenience and expense they wool and
put to in pulling down parts of their premises oil
rebuilding others. Mr. Freeman said hi co,
arrangement they had avoided a parliamenterYie of
test, and also the necessity of taking the Wh° to
the premises of those gentlemen, which, fron3„ed
nature and extent of their busines, would be '

expensive. raid
A lengthened discussion ensued as to the Vio
of the agreement ; and as ono part of it aPPeak id
rather ambiguous, it was resolved to refer it bad,
the committee, so that it might be put into 103"
takeable language.
The routine business having been disposed 0
board adjourned.

ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS.
The object of this enterp-lee is to take advantage of the
impulse given to the Manufacture of Paper by the repeal of
the Excise Duties, ue der circumstances peculiarly favourable,
the materials
being obtained by a patent process in full ope-
ration, at prices very highly remunerative, as compared with
the cost of similar products in the open market. p
It is well known that very large fortunes have been
realised in this trade, and the removal of a Tax which
amounted to £2O to V 5 per cent. upon the value of first-class
News and Printing Papers, at a time when there is a con-
stantly inere ring demand for the supply of Books, Periodi-
cals, Newspapers, and Writing Papers, ensures a large and
very remunerative business to a manufactory situated close
to the metropolis, erected on the most scientific plans, with
the greatest regard to economy of production by the saving
of labour and the introduc ion of machinery of the most per-
fect description.

Under the powers of the Limited Liability Act of 1182,
it is proposed to purchase at their actu l cost, the under-
takiags of the Ettrick Forest Paper Mill Company and the
Ulmate of Ammonia Company, and to carry them on under
the title of the Dartford Creek Paper Mill Company.
To carry out the intended purchase, to double the scale
of the Paper Mill, to utilise to the Tulle-t extent the produc-
tive power of the works at Grays, and to provide the necessary
working funds, it is proposed to raise a capital of £150,000, in
shares of £lO each, of which £15,000 will remain uncalled as
a fund of credit, deemed highly d sirable for the safe and
profitable working of a Limited Company.
After providing for every contingency, the net
profits
Calculated upon the present working and receipts, as applied
to the enlarged production, viz., 32 to 35 tons of paper, and
25 to 30 tons of manure powder, per week, will be from £20,,00
to £25,000 per annum, accordin9, to the condition of the mar-
kets, giving a dividend of from 15 to 20 per cent., with pros-
pects of considerable increase upon favourable developments
of general trade, which it is well known is depressed by the
state of affairs in America, and other di,turbing causes.
A very large share of the capital has already been sub-
scribed by the present owners of the properties.
Prospectuses and forms of application for shares may be
obtained from the Bankers, Brokers, Solicitors, or at the
Offices of the Company.
Applications for shares must be made in the form annexed
to the prospectus, accompanied by the deposit of £ I per share.
It no allotment be made the deposit will be returned in full ;
and it a less number be allotted than is applied for, the sur-
plus will be used towards the payment on allotment.
