This Companv
the growth of Cotton in Asia Minor - a country with soil,
climate, and geograi hical position peculiarly adapted to the
production of invaluable textile, abundance of free labour
accustomed to agriculture, natural means of irrigation, and
ready channels of transit by railway and otherwise to the
port of Smyrna, which is within 15 days steam communica-
tion with Liverpool, :aid placed in immediate contact with
the manufacturing districts by the electric telegraph. It thus
possesses all the advantages fitted to render it immediately
available for the object in view.
The Company will especially -endeavour to stimulate a
largely increased production of improved Cotton by the intro-
duction of superior kinds of seed, the best agricultural imple-
ments, and the most approved machinery for cieanr g and
baling the mat rial.
It is not tue intention of the Company to eno-age directly
in the cultivation of Cotton on their own account, but by
means of agencies in the interior to stimulate and t ffer every
assistance to those who are prepared to extend the culti-
vation.

The sources from whence the Company confidently look for
profit may be briefly enumerated thus
Ist From advances made to cultivators against the crops.
2d. From the purchase of Cotton on their own account and
on commission.
3d. From gins belonging to the Company e-tablished
throughout the country, which wiil clean the Cotton at a cer-
tain rate per lb.
4th. From the hydraulic presses b longing to the Company
engaged in packing the Cotton for shipment.
Prospectuses and forms of application for shares may be
obtained from the brokers or from the Secretary, at the Aces

"It is not filled, as common-place professional houses
might have tried to fill it, with such liter ry or intellectual
remarks alone as an be brought round to end in protei•sional
assertion of the superior merits of Messrs. Moses. Occa-
sionally it is true, the great and unloubted superiority of
that distirmished Firm breaks through the literary veil ;
but it is rather as if their superiority w s a matter of course.
which the essayist took so thoroughly for granted, that with-
out any effort on his part, his conviction must now and then
dawn throiigh his writing." - London Review, Jan. 17, 1863.
