PROSPECTUS.
the Company is formed for the purpose of converting
She £lOO Shares of the Continental Bank Corporation into
Bank with
of £2O, and to carry out the amalgamation of that
I lux with the Bank of Messrs. E. Landau and Co., of
—Thnerandrial and for facilitating commercial, financial, and
- -Iletary transactions between this country, the Continent,
and Egypt.
Pive of the £2O Shares in this Company will be allotted
to the Shareholders in the Continental Bank, in exchange
fient:o
etteacdh of their present £lOO Shares. The .£2o•Shares
in exchange for Shares on which £25 has been
Paid, will be credited with £5 paid up ; and those allotted
it
each for Shares on which £l5 only has been paid,
Will be credited with XS paid up.
The arrangements which have been made for amalga-
niating and managing the business of the above establish-
tlents aro such as, aided by the high Egyptian connections
of Messrs. Landau, cannot fail to secure to this Company a
Very extensive and profitable business.
The establishment of Messrs. Landau and Co., at Alex-
rdria, in addition to its regular banking operations, has
long enjoyed an extensive connection with producers and
liporters of produce in Egypt. This business has always.
Yielded most favourable results; and no better proof of this
can be given than the fact that the firm, during the whole
13t its existence, as well as the other banks lately established
_4 Egypt, have experienced an ibsolute immunity from loss
their transactions of this class of business.
, The daily increasing trade of Egypt with Europe, espe-
cially with England, is also a sure guarantee for the en-
hanced future success of this Company; the profits hitherto
realised by Messrs. Landau and Co. are alone sufficient to
Yield a largo return upon the capital proposed to be called
up; and the several partners' otthe Firm, in order to show
their confidence in the future success of the Company, have
taken a large number of Shares, and will continue in the
active management of the business at Alexandria.
The Bank has also secured the co-operation, as a Direo-
tor, of Mr. Bravay, whose exertions will be especially de-
ed to the extension of the Bank's relations with
thet Egyptian Government, a class of transactions in which
Jae has hitherto engaged, with very successful results.
„The amalgamated establishments propose liquidating all
their present transactions up to the date of amalgamation.
-uhe Articles of Association of this Company, and the
TARreement entered into for acquiring the business of
Mess's. Landau and Co., can be seen on application at the
'ace of the Solicitors.
Offices of £1 upon each Share must be paid at the

,l!, according to the annexed Form.

Slii b. I? by. private capitalists-therein;in of ca'negngion.
z_l3. wilding in Iron and Wood, and of mechanical
'4l,ring in all its branches. of The Shipbuilding Yard possesses a frontgebteocathpeaz
I,,,livards of 1,200 feet, in which there will
'' taYing down twenty
the esta-
ships, taking an average of 60 feet
ivt,Width for each ship. As at present constituted,
ahnielat each
a first-class stone-built Dry Dock, 260
Niet bY 52 feet, in perfect working condition, with sleam
ne, eircular-s aw ear, smiths' shops, timber sheds, offices,a
111 and uildings, withgslip's quays, and other necessary .P:
1n,,,im1e,,
~ all in goodrepair.' On the premises there is a capita€l, ''''''' lain, four excellent dwelling-houses, suitable for the
anager and employ6s of the Company, six cottages for.
loremen, &c,
a good supply of fresh water, and an abund-
ance of lime and building- stone.
It is proposed to lengthen the present dry dock 50 feet,
to construct two additional dry docks and one large float-
ing dock, to be divided by caissons ; also additional frontage
quays, and to extend the appliances generally, with the
view of the construction and repair of iron and wooden
ships, the manufacturing of marine and other engines,
armour and other plate, angle iron, and every description
of iron work.
For the purposes of the Company the position of the
premises is not to be su9assed (as will be seen by the plan) ;
they are in close proximity to Sutton Harbour, forming
the seaboard of Catwater anchorage, and are completely
sheltered, first by the Plymouth Breakwater, and next
by the peninsula of Mount Batten, in addition to which
the approaches to the premises are completely cora-
inanded by the guns of the citadel. The Branch Station
ef the South Devon Railway Company is situated in the
immediate vicinity, and her Majesty's Dockyard, Devon-
Pert, is within an easy distance.
onThis Company will offer unusual facilities for carrying
the
the business in consequence of both labour
fiLnd the freight of iron, coal, and timber being extremely
„..1°1; added to which much expense will be saved, as the
aterials will be delivered on the quays of the Company
free of all dues and charges.
,i, At present there are no Iron Shipbuilding Works at
fiYinoth, and much inconvenience and expense often e-,
nit to 1,.:

the
Directors consider it unnecessary to allude to
LL er advantages possessed by this Company, further than
w`°_st.ate that there is a great and growing demand for such
°4',11,,s as they propose to carry on.
Atr " °Perations of the Company will be conducted by
ri • tioseph
Banks, who will devote his well-known expo-
, once exclusively to the interests of the Company, aided
ilk' gentlemen of acknowledged mechanical skill. As the
twohole of the valuable property has been ceded to the Dixec-
tllre 4(3° terms which are considered highly advantageous,
_, profitable result of the undertaking may be deemed as
