PROSPECTUS.

This Company h formed-
1. To carry out a contract made with the London and
North-Western Railway Company, for the purchase of a
freehold estate on the edge of the Menai Straits, in the
county of Carnarven, consisting of about 80 acres of valu-
able building land, 20 acres of which were, some time since,
planted and laid oat by the late Sir Joseph Paxton, at a
very large outlay.
2. To devote a portion of the estate lying nearest to the
Menai-bridge station of the London and North-Western
Railway Company to the purposes of a first-class Hotel,
with appropriate gardens, pleasure grounds, and other
conveniences, and tc erect, furnish, and maintain such
Hotel and grounds.
3. To dispose of the residue of the estate by way of
absolute sale, or to base the same for the erection of villa
and other residences, and to otherwise encourage building
thereon, as from time to time may appear most judicious
or desirable.

4. To take a lease for 99 years on agreed terms of the
refreshment-rooms to be erected by the London and North-
Western Railway Company at their Menai-bridge station,
and to manage them in connexion with the Hotel, the Rail-
way Company having agreed that they will improve and
maintain their Menai station ass first-class station, at which
four-fifths of all passenger trains, not being express, mail,
or excursion trains, will stop.
5. To erect private and other baths, both salt and fresh
water, as well as to construct open bathing-places in the
grounds on the edge of the Straits.
The picturesque features of Carnarvonshiro, with its in-
vigorating climate, have long won for that county a large
share of the public favour, and in the vicinity of the more
romantic and accessible spots, the demand for further first-
class Hotel accommodation and private residences has b -
come a matter of notoriety. Few sites have proved more
attractive than those Iv bleb the banks of the Straits possess,
and the estate which has been secured for the purposes of
the present Company is confessedly unrivalled in point of
situation and general eligibility.
The property thus available lies between the Menai and
Britannia bridges, and is skirted on one side by the Menai
Straits, and on the other by the London and North- Western
Railway. The whole estate commands extensive views of
the principal objects of interest and natural beauty with
which the district abounds. The Pass of Llanberis, Snow-
don, Bangor, and Beaumaris, are all in its immediate vici-
nity. The Harbour of Holyhead may be reached by railway
in an hour, and Liverpool and Manchester in throe hours.
Tho promoters have carefully collected and examined,
the data upon which they rest their anticipation of the pro-
fitable nature of the undertaking, and they can see no rea-
son why the advance which of late years has taken place
in the value of building sites at the more celebrated water-
ing-places of England should not within the next few years
be equally realised for this Company ; still less do the pro-
moters believe that the success which has invariably at-
tended the establishment of good Hotels, in co-operation
with our groat Railways, will be wanting in the present
instance.

There already exists a large demand for land in this lo-
cality, and the Shareholders may therefore confidently ex-
pect to derive a handsome profit from the sales and rental
of the estate.

It is an important consideration that the London and
North-Western Railway Company, who have a direct in-
terest in the success of this project, aro disposed to give it
their cordial support.
The Directors, under power conferred upon them by the
Articles of Association, will pay interest at 6 per cent. per
annum upon all calls and deposits till the opening of the
Hotel, which, it is expected, will take place in the course
of eighteen months. Shareholders desirous of paying up in
anticipation of the future calls, can do so, and interest will
be allowed thereon at 6 per cent.

Should no allotment be made the deposit will bo returned
in full, and if a greater number of shares bo applied for
than is allotted, the surplus deposit will be applied in dimi-
nution of the payment to be made in respect of the deposit
on allotment.

The Articles of Association may be seen at the Company's
Offices, and at the Solicitor's, as well as the several Brokers'.
Application for shares, accompanied with the deposit, to be
made in the annexed form to Bankers, Brokers, or the
Secretary, from whom prospectuses may be obtained.

WINSLOW HALL, Winslow, Bucks, having
been recently opened and fitted with requisites for
the care and comfort of the INSANE, the proprietor, Dr.

lishment from Birmingham to the above desirable residence,
easily accessible, and distant from London about an hour
and a-half by the London and North-Western line, and fifty
minutes from Oxford. Attached to the mansion, situated on
a sandy ■oil, and commanding an extensive and pleasing

grounds. For terms and forms of admission address the

THE PISTON FREEZING MACHINE
(ASH'S PATENT) is rapidly becoming a part of the
cuisine of every gentleman's establishment. because it is by
far the quickest, most economical, and easy method of
freezing known. It is only by the piston process that des-
sert ices, iced puddings, &0., can be made at once in moulds,
ready for table (avoiding the double operation of freezing and
moulding afterwards). It is the very best apparatus for
icing wines, and produces the purest block ice. Its complete
success, when used with the chemical freezing powders (in
lieu of ice) in hot climates, on board ship, &c., is testified by
reference to patrons in nearly every part of the world. Price
from 50s. each. A descriptive pamphlet (containing valuable
recipes) free per post for 13 stamps. Price lists gratis.—
