ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS.
The objects of the company are, first, to construct a rail-
Way, about nine miles in length, from the " Old Port" of
Marseilles to Podestat, to afford increased facilities for the
commerce and manufaCtures of the town and port ; secondly,
to acquire land on both sides of the line throughout its
length for building and other purposes, to which great vialue
will be given by the construction of the railway.
The reputation of Marseilles as the first maritime city of
France is well known, second only to Paris in population
and wealth ; its position and capabilities give it the com-
mand of French commerce in the Mediterranean.
Within the last ten years Marseilles has been placed in
direct railway communication with Paris and all parts of
France. Magnificent docks and warehouses havebeen con-
structed; but great and rapid as those new works have been
they are still far behind the requirements of its ever-in-
creasing trade.
The old quarters of the town are being demolished to
make room for handsome streetsandpublic buildings. The
Population thus displaced are driven to the suburbs, more
especially towards the south, where the lands of the Corn-
pany are situate.
The proposed railway, after leaving the port and town
of 300,000 inhabitants, will pass through the southern
suburb, which contains a population of 50,000, and follow
the valley to the sea, at the "Madrague de Montredon,"
from thence it will be continued for three miles along the
coast to Podestat, affording sitesfor the erection of factories,
With access to the sea, and direct railway communication
with the town and port, and with the Paris, Lyons, and
Mediterranean lines, by a junction with the proposed new
branch of the latter to the " Place Castellano."
The Company have contracted for the purchase of about
1,200,000 square metres of land (about 300 English acres)
Situate on both sides of the pro . s sed railway, between the
town and the " Madrague de ontredon ;" 140,099etres
of which will be required for the construction or -the line
and stations, leaving 1,060,000 metres to be sold for the
erection of first-class residences.
It has been estimated that on the completion of the rail-
way the whole of this land will be readily sold at the price
of at least 20 francs per metre, at which rate it will produce
21,200,000 francs, or .0348,000.
The Company have also contracted for the purchase of a
very large tract of ground beyond the "Madrague de Mon-
tredon," through which the railway will pass to Podestat.
The average cash cost to the Company of the land above
referred to is only sff. per metre, including the houses
already built thereon, and including also upwards of
10,000,000 metres of land (about 2,500 acres) on the coast
lino for three miles beyond the proposed terminus at
Podestat, which will thus be acquired by the Company
!Yee of cost, and which will be made available at some
future time by an extension of the railway and the forma-
tion of roads.

ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS.
This Company has been formed to take over tho busi-
ness of the Accidental Death Insurance Company—the
existing constitution and capital of which are now found
to be inconvenient and inadequate to its recently largely
extended operations.
That Company (empowered by special Acts of Parlia-
ment, 15 Vic., c. 56, and 22 and 23 Vic., c. 22) was founded
in 1849, with a nominal capital of X 250,000, in 50,000
shares of £5 each, of which 20,000 have been issued. The
following statement, embracing the amount of Premiums
since the commencement of the Company, shows tho pro-
gressive and steadily increasing nature of its operations:—

The accounts of the recently formed Marine Insurance
Companies, which have exhibited good dividends and
she wa prospects of great value, leave no doubt on the
minds of the Directors that at any rate equal success will
attend the efforts of the Corporation in this direction. The
Bervices of a gentleman of experience have been secured as
Underwriter.
The extensive machinery of agents (of which there are
between 4,000 and 5,000) is in full work, and is of great
value—indeed the directors confidently believe that all
t
rhat is required to secure a rapid increase in the existing
business
is a proper adaptation of modern requirements as
regards capital and position.
