-1011e.A.STENNE BITUMEN COMPANY.
_IL'S This Company are prepared to enter into contracts for exe-
cuting Carriage and Foot Pavements, and to Keep, them in Repair
in the usual manner, or to Sell the Material.to Paviers for these and
other yrtrposes.
The Company have perfect confidence in the unqualified success
of the expennientll specimen laid down by them in Oxford-street,
and they challenge a contradiction from any competent judge. The
surface is impervious-to water and the pavement requires no hogging-,
and is entirely free from mud and dust, is more durable than any de-
scription of stone, and will ultimately be much less expensive.

BAS'rENNE BITUMEN COMPANY.
The Shareholders are informed that Messrs. M. A. GOLD-
SMID, ROWAND RONALD, and MONTEFIORE, have been
obliged to RESIGN their SEATS in the Direction of the Corn-
tinny; the two former in consequence of their intended residence
abroad, and the latter from indispensable private engagements.
The works of the Company hare hitherto given the most perfect
satisfaction to the management; and no doubt is entertained of the
advantages-of Bitumen for ail the purposes for which it has been
recommended, nor of the ultimate success of the undertaking.
The, funds placed at the disposal of the Direction are sufficient for
all the purposes required, without any call upon the Shareholders.
The sales of the Tar on. the Continent are rapidly increasing,
and every effort continues to be made by the Agents of the Company
to extend the knowledge of its value, which there is no doubt will
ultimately insure ample profits ; and the Directors feel the most
perfect confidence in the successful application of the Bitumen to a
great variety of purposes during- the ensuing season.
A Public Meeting of the Shareholders will be held in the
month of May, when the state of the Accounts will be submitted,
and by which time Reports will be received of the success which
has attended the various experiments made on the Government
works, parochial and other paving, &c.
