. -
British India, extending Over 500,000 square miles of the most
fertile part of Asia, and containing one hundred million of indus-
trious, skilful, and intelligent inhabitants, peculiarly requires a
combination of capital, sk ill, and energy for the full development of
the valuable and varied products of the soil.
The recent abrogation of exclusive commercial privileges in the
East—the enactments of the Local Government for facilitating the
rent or purchase of land—the abolition of transit tolls in Bengal
—the application of improved machinery to various manufactures—
the equalization of the duties on the produce of the East and We 1
Indies, when imported into the United Kingdom—the dissolution
of the large mercantile firms of Calcutta—the increasing pecuniary
drain on the Indian revenues to meet political charges in England,
and the consequent desire to strengthen the commercial connection
between both countries—the fact that our cotton manufacture, and
3,500,000/. of tobacco revenues are dependent on the jealous amity
of the United States' Government, and on the tranquillity of
2,000,000 of slaves—and that the important and lucrative trade in
sugar, molasses, rum, &c., with its 5,000,0001. revenue, are put to
serious hazard by negro emancipation in the West Indies—above
all, the paramountly moral duty of Britain to use every pos-
sible exertion for promoting the welfare and happiness of the vast
population committed to her care—each and all combine to demand
the formation of a Company which, seeking no monopoly or ex-
clusive rights, and relying solely on the economical, judicious, and
profitable employment of itsconcentrated capital, vigilant attention,
and skill ml agency, may fairly rank with those national institutions
that not only enrich their proprietors, but confer honour, security,
and wealth on the whole community of the empire.
The business of the East India Agricultural Company will be
conducted by a Board of Directors sitting in London, and elected
by the Proprietors of Stock holding five or more Shares ; and by a
Local Board of Sub-Directors, (two of whom shall be natives of
India), sitting at Calcutta, with a Manager deputed from the Lon-
don Board.

A Court of Proprietors will be held annually, for the appointment
of Auditors and receiving the report of the Directors.
All further information may be had at the Offices of the Corn-
Noy, No. 53, Old Broad-street, where applications for Shares are
to be addressed.
By order of the Board,
