The Estatn, a.iiich covPrs an area of 405,00) English acres,
wand contains 35,000 inhabitants, is most adv eta eously
;!7onted on the navicrab!e river Oka (which flows into the

o which connects Nijni Novgorod with Moscow.

the Works, which are now in operatioa and in good order,
consist of—

The above are worked by 72 water wheels, of 1,050 horse
PoYver, besides 15 steam engines, of 478 horse power.
timber acres of the "Estate are covered with valuable
;and this upply of fuel coupled with the abundance
and cheapness of labour, hits, enabled the Proprietors to
produce
, Iron at a much less cost than in England, whilst
? selling price in Russia is more than double what it is in
s country, as the oduction within the empire is not ;uqlual
class)r to t the demand, and Foreign Iron (except of a parti-
is kept out of competition by the high import
duty and cost of transport.
The price at which- the Company's interest in the pro-
Perty, as defined below, has been conditionally acquired, is
the sum of £60,000, in addition to which, an estimated sum
Of £35, 000 will be required to pay off existing charges on

Will be required for working capital, making together

The profits at the present time amount to about 537,000
silver roubles (about £70,000 sterling) per annum, subject,
however, to a reduction of 72,000 roubles, being interest
at 5 per cent., and sinking fund on a debt of 1,200,000
roubles due to the Russian Government, thus leaving a.
net annual profit of 465,000 roubles (£60,000). By ar-
