PROSPECTUS.

This Company is formedatih; express solicitation of
merchants and others engaged in trading and monetary
operations in the Ottoman Empire, for the purpose of ex-
tending to the mercantile community of Turkey that legi-
timate aid, which, in more favoured countries, is rendered
to commerce by well-conducted banking institutions.
The enormous development of the Trade of Turkey
within the last few years has not been met by any con-
tinuous increase of banking facilities ; and when it is con-
sidered that the total imports and exports have risen from
£20,000,000 in 1852 to upwards of £80,000,000 in the year
1864, some idea may be formed of the vast and profitable
field which is open to a bank conducted upon Engiish
principles, and managed by gentlemen possessing a local
and practical knowledge of the country.
In the year 1851 the total number of vessels that entered
and cleared at the port of Constantinople was only 13,069,
tonnage 2,397,316 ; while in the year 1864 the number rose
to 48,939, tonnage 7,433,063. At the port of Smyrna the
total imports and exports in the year 1854 amounted only
to £2,464,525 ; while in 1684 they increased to £8,563,502.
In these great centres of Turkish commerce there is but
one joint-stock bank in existence.
The Ottoman Bank (La Banque Imp4riale Ottomane) is
the only bank in Turkey, and the profitable nature of its
operations is evidenced from the price of its shares, which,
with £lO paid, are quoted at £l6, while the last dividend
amounted to 15 per cent. per annum.
The operations of the Bank of Turkey will be strictly
confined to banking business, to the exclusion of anything
connected with the business of a merchant. It will assist
commerce, while at the same time it will avoid, on its own
part, all interference with or competition in trade. This
feature in a bank for Turkey is of peculiar value, and will
secure at once for the Company a clientelle of the most
unexceptionable and profitable character.
The Bank will afford facilities to merchants in this country
and on the Continent, for the negotiation of their drafts on
correspondents in Turkey.
Application for Shares may be addressed in the annexed
form to the Directors, and copies of the prospectus may be
obtained at the Offices of the Ottoman Company, 20,
Threadneedle-street, or at the Offices of the Bankers,
Brokers, and Solicitors; but no application will be consi-
dered unless a deposit of £1 per share on the number of
shares applied for has been paid.

Movements of Cotton in America,

--4----

The trade in cotton is assuming an activity
corresponding to the movements of ordinary times. Last
week the receipts at the port of New York reached
29,115 lr-les, and from the beginning of this month to the
14th inst. (21 business days) the receipts were 93,278 Wei.
The total receipts at New York from the Ist September to
the beginning of the present week, and at the Southern
ports from September. Ist to October 14th, have been as
follows, compared with the same period of the preceding
years :

1865-66
1860-61
1859-60
1858-59
1857-58

Since Sept. 1.
Bales.
302,000
352,000
375,000
340,000
161,000

It thus appears that the movement has been nearly
equal to that of the most active of former years. The
exports, from the samo points and to tho same dates, com-
pare as follow:

To Great To Other
Britain. France Foreign
Por:s.
Bales. Bales. Bal:s. Total.
1865-66 94,000 7,000 — 101,000
1860-61 57,000 18,000 12,000... 87,000
1859-60 95,000 29,000 12,000...136,000
1858-59 55,000 25,000 7,003... 87,000
1857-58 41,000 5,000 4,000... 50,000
Only in the year 1859-60 has tho activity of the ex-
ports, for this period, equalled that of the present year,
The stock at all the ports at the same dates was as fol-
lows :---
Bales.
1865-66 321,000
1860-61 387,000
1859-60 319,000
1858-59 281,000
1857-58 145,000

Thus it appears that only in the year 1860-61 has the
stock of cotton at the ports equalled that held during the
present month. The total receipts of cotton at New York
from January Ist to October 23d were 553,320 bales,
against 229,580 bales for the same period of 1864. Should
the receipts at this port continue at the current rate up to
the close of the year, the total imports of New York for
1865 will reach 850,000 bales.
It is impossible to do more than vaguely guess at the
amount of cotton still held in the interior of the South.
The firm of Neill Brothers and Co. estimate the amount
held in Georgia, at the close of the war and on the 15th
inst., to have been as follows :

suurpesplym.ighlnt
give a basis upon which to estimate the tottalg
1860 the Georgia crop was 131 per cenrat.ioof the entire
cotton crop of the South. If the same
main-
tained now, it would follow that in the enure Swertehthi.s at the present time about 3 375 000 bales. ;nut as it is
impossible to say how far military'' operatons have dis-
arranged the movements of cotton in the interior, it is im-
possible to estimate how far these figures depart from the
facts of the case. They, however, afford reason for sup-
posing that there is a very large amount of cotton still
remaining in the interior of the South.
The Times special correspondent says the
Southern people aro anxious to plant cotton, and would
raise it on every acre of land adapted to itsculture, but the
scarcity of labourers prevents them. The Southern jour-
nals are begging the people of the North and of Europe to
come among them and buy the cotton lands. The best
can be bought for $lO in paper per acre.
The Havre cotton market was not well attended
by buyers last week, and there was not much business
transacted. Some bags of Louisianian cotton were sold at
t47f. 50c. Tho brokers subsequently reduced the prices
sy. from sf. to 12f., and the following quotations were pub-
lished: Louisiana, 235 f.; good ordinary Egyptian, 270 f.;
Peruvian, 265 f. ; Brazilian, 273 f. ; Sawgtnned, 220 f. ;
Broach, 215 ; Dhollerah, 210 ; Tinnevelly, 215 f.; Kurra-
chee, 150 f. There was an improvement in the price of
cotton in the Marseilles market towards the end of the
week. Some bags of Jumel were sold at 275 f.; 5m,,.„
195 f. ; Aleppo, 170 f. the 50 kilogrammes.
