ABRI D GED PROSPECTUS.
This Company is formed for the purpose of purchasing
and thoroughly working and developing the well-known
Leeswood Collieries, near Mold, Flintshire, where an extra-
ordinary discovery of Cannel Coal has lately been made.
The Collieries are, at the present time, in profitable opera-
tion, and Considerable quantities of very superior Cannel
Coal wards of 2,500 tons per month) are being raised
and sold at prices which leave a large profit.
The quality of gas produced from the Leeswood Cannel is
'equal to that obtained from the well-known Torbane Hill
Mineral, or Boghead, which realises so high a price (about
40s. per ton) in Scotland.—See Dr. Fyfe's (of Aberdeen)
Report for comparative value of the Leeswood with this
and other cannels.
Contracts already exist with gas and other companies for
upwards of 30,000 tons per annum of the Leeswood Cannel
Coal, thus ensuring a sale for the whole amount of the pre-
sent raisings ; and additional contracts, to at least double
this extent, can be made directly the increased yield of the
collieries will afford the requisite supply.
The present get and sales of Cannel Coal from the proved
area alone (without taking into account the other proved
seams) will yield for upwards of 20 years a certain dividend
of above 10 per cent, on the entire capital of £lOO,OOO, after
making a liberal allowance for all possible expenses and
contingencies (see " Statement of actual Raisings, Sales,
and Expenditure for January, February, and March,
1862"), but with the proposed additional pits, by an outlay
not exceeding £lO,OOO, the amount raised will be more than
doubled, and the dividends increased in proportion. (See Re-
ports of Mr. MacCulloch, Mr. MacDougal Smith, and Mr.
R. C. Webster, of Ruabon).
The whole of the above statements have been thoroughly
tested and verified by the Directors.
Prospectuses in full, reports, statements of actual work-
ings, profits, &c., and forms of application for shares, can
be obtained at the Solicitors', Brokers', and at the offices of
the Company, from whence they will also be forwarded free
by post if required.

AN IMPORT AN T DISCUSSION.—The
A
." Times," the "Lancet," and other leading journals
have been lately canvassing the social considerations in-
volved in " the amount of death and disease caused by vice.
Some interesting statistics are brought to bear upon the
inquiry ; but it would greatly add to their value if they in-
cluded the facts respecting the origin, the ravages, and the
prevention of that SPECIAL VICE, which wars more than any
other against the welfare of society—destroying the happi-
ness and disappointing the objects of matrimony, ur der-
mining the constitutions, blasting the prospects, embittering
and shortening the lives of its victims, and spreading desola-
tion through families.
The essential particulars relating to this great social evil
(the besetting snare of inexperienced youth and the curse of
maturity), together with ample instructions for removing its
effects, and recovering health, vigour, and all the ennobling
privileges of our being, are contained in Dr. LA'MERT'S
"SELF-PRESE EIVATION," a Treatise on Nervous and
Physical Debility, of which the 90th Edition has just been
published by Mann and Co., 39, Cornhill, London, price Is.,
sent post free for 13, or in a sealed envelope for 20 stamps,
Dr. TIA'MERT, M.D., &c., havingfor 20 years devoted himself
entirely to this branch of practice, may be consulted daily,
