QUEEN'S SPEECH.
***lt was imagined by some of my subjects that it
Would be difficult to make up a speech at the opening of Parliament
—foreign relations being in a rather sad condition, and some people
having made free with our home institutions ; but notwithstanding
all these circumstances it becomes me to congratulate you on the
vast amount of prosperity which is felt in all commercial circles—a
proof of which arc the transactions of E. MOSES and SON ; they
have been more industrious than ever in furnishing all my subjects
with the Best and Cheapest Dress, which has not only improved the
condition and comfort of my people, but is the most cogent reason
for the peace and satisfaction which prevails throughout these great
kingdoms.
What are the intentions of the Emperor of the North it is difficult
to determine, but the North itself is not capable of resisting the strong
and fashionable Overcoats, Palctots, and Attire for all classes made
by E. NOSES and Sow, for it is the best and cheapest ever offered.
It is a source of regret that many of the necessaries of life are
charged most enormous prices, but our loyal subjects, E. MOSES and
Sow, have so reduced the Price of Clothing, Hosiery, Hats, Boots,
and Shoes, &c., that the inconvenience of high-priced food is little
felt by the great majority of my subjects who patronise their Este-
blishments and its Branches, New Oxford-street, corner of Hart-
street, Fargate. Shefileld, and Bradford, Yorkshire.
I recommend to you the affairs of those in Australia, and trust you
will,flt them with laws as E. Mom and Sow Outfit them with Clothes
and every other article required for that prosperous country ; and as
this business is attended to with the greatest industry, care.
and experience by E. Mesas and SON, either wholesale or smaller
parcels may be selected at any moment. I trust you will continue
to imitate their business-like example, as you recollect so well their
name, places of business, and plans of trade.
CAUTION.—E. MOSES and SON regret having to guard the
public against imposition, having learned that the untradesman-like
falsehood of " Being connected with their Establishment," or " It's
the same concern," has been resorted to in many instances, and for
obvious reasons, they beg to state that they have

None of the existing Steam Fuel Companies possess the advantage •
of being entirely supplied from their cwn collieries with coal specially
adapted for the manufacture of the fuel.
It has hitherto been the practice to manufacture the small coal
or refuse only into steam fuel, and the heavy royalties paid to the
patentees. and the expensive machinery employed, have left a com-
paratively small sum available for the purchase of even small coal of
the requisite quality, without a material reduction in the profits.
With a view to meet these objections, this Company has secured,
upon advantageous terms, the right of using an economical patent
process, and the patentee has entered into an agreement that the cost
of the fuel, free on board (inclusive of the cost and transit of the coal)
shall not exceed Sc. 9d. per ton. The present price of thn fuel at
Swansea is 14s. : thus leaving a nett profit of ss. 3d. per ton to the
Company.
The patentee has engaged that the first works, capable of produc-
ing 100 tons a day, shall be completed within four months from their
commencement. The works will be enlarged with the increasing de-
mand for the fuel. As the enlargement of the works will not cause
any addition to the expenses of managensent and other fixed charges,
It is fair to presume that this will result in a considerable augmenta-
tion of the divisible profits.
The Company has also secured the lease of a valuable colliery of
500 acres in extent, with an unexpired term of 94 years, and subject
to a royalty of 6d. per ton. There are five seams of bituminous and
free burning coal, aggregsting about 20 feet in thickness ; one seam
has been already opened by level. The coal field is situated 300
yards from the Port Tennant Canal, which communicates with Brit-
ton Ferry, the shipping port of Neath, and the eastern side of Swan-
sea harbour. These two ports nearly approximate the lines of the
South Wales and Vale of Neath Railways. The coal on this property
is peculiarly adapted, from its purity and strength, to the purpose
for which it is intended; and it cin be easily won and worked as
may be seen by reference to the geological map of the district, and
the reports of two engineers and colliery viewers.
Considering the very large quantity of coal which the colliery is
capable of supplying beyond that which is requisite for the manufac-
ture of the patent fuel, the surplus can be sold for steam, manufac-
turing, or household purposes ; and from this source alone a large re-
venue will arise to the Company. Two levels can be opened in six
weeks ; and the coal can be sold in any quantity and at a very remu-
nerative price, in Swansea and the contiguous markets.
The Patent Fuel has been subjected to frequent trials, of which
the most recent was made in the course of the month of June last,
in the Wave Queen Steamer, and the very favourable result is
detailed in the annexed reports by Messrs. Dickson and Graves.
The long experience which each of them has had in the testing of
various kinds of steam fuel, and the careful manner in which the
trial was made, impress a peculiar value upon the unanimity of their
opinion.
The characteristics of this Mel are—its being well condensed and
carbonised ; its showing a clean fracture when broken, and being free
from slag or other impure matter. It rapidly generates heat, brings
out a clear fire under the boilers (which Mr. Graves designates as
from stoked. e
