This extensive and highly mineralised sett embraces upwards of
500 acres of land, in the parish of Tolland, Cornwall, about one mile
from the seaport of Polperro, where materials can be landed and
ores shipped at a very small cost.
Fer many years this sett was held by
working miners, who, con-
fident of success, drove an edit about 40 fathom• into the hf 1, on the
eastern part of the sett ; and commenced sinking a shaft near the
Great Cross Course, with a view of communicating and intersecting
the lodes mentioned in the various reports.
They also commenced working on the course of the lode, breaking
quantities of copper ores, but, tor want of "means to proci.re t•e
necessary machinery, allowed the ores to be scattered ; a potion of
which can be seen at the office of the present Company," who have
purchased a lease for 21 years (renewable), at one-sixteenth dues.
The trial of gossan, of which there are large quantities, yielded
nearly one ounce of fine gold per ton. The mine hag been in full
operation now for three months ; and persons desirous of investing
are referred to the Captain's weekly reports in the " Mining Journal,"
all of xhich may be seen at the offices of the Company.
The former holders have consented to take paid up shares of the
company, as compensation for their outlay and labour.
The remaining shares are offered to the public as a lucrative in-
vestment.
The Managing Committee deem it needless to give a lengthened
Prospectus—it being a well known fact that this sett embraces many
peculiar advantages for developing its mitteral resources ;andnd having
employed mining engineers of known respectability,
is who report
favourable on the prospects of the undertaking, which
Scented with spirit and economy.
Samples of ores and reports of practical mining agents, may be
teen, and every information obtained of the Secretary, at the office
of the Company, 19, Bucklersbury.
A considervile number of shares have been subscribed for in the
immediate vicinity of the mine.
Applications for shares to he addressed to the brokers of the Com-
pany; or to the Secretary, at the offices, 19, Bucklersbury.

EUROPEAN COURTS.
ENDLESS embassies and fruitless negotiations
have occupied the Courts of Europe for some time. Whether
th, c.'nstellation of the " Great Bear" is an unlucky one, we must
leave for the consideration of all ohservers ; but the soundest policy
has been pursued by the patrons of the establishments of E. MOSES
and SON, who have negotiated affairs of dress on a scale of unpre-
cedented magnificence and economy. The war of elements is totally
subdued by the attire manufactured by E. MOSES and Son, and all
the advantages of a complete victory are secured by an artistic fit
which combines fashion and comfort.
As ambassadors to the Court of Fashion, E. MOSES and SON are
the most successful negotiators which the commercial world has
ever acknowledged—they have produced styles of dress which have
gained them universal reputation. Their present facilities for exe-
cuting the commands of noblemen, merchants, men of business,
labourers, and all other sections of society, possess an indescribable
ampletude, associated with superior quality, infinite variety, and the
most economical charges.
Liveries, sporting dress, military and naval costumes, are made by
E. Mosss and Son with the greatest uniformity and precision.
1 Hats, caps, boots and shoes, hosiery, shirts, ladies' and children's
clothing of the most elegant and serviceable kind, is furnished by
E. MOSES and Son at considerably lower prices than are customarily
. .. ..__

charged.
The wholesale department of E. MOSES and W.ON'S business is highly
advantageous to merchants, captains, and emigrants. Their cloth-
ing, boots and shoe., outfits, &c. Ire., are the best shipments which
can be made to Australia or any part of the world.
Full lists of outfits for ladies and gentlemen, and ship-sailing in-
formation, may be had on appliacation, or post free.
CAUTION.—E. MOSES and SON regret having to guard the
public against imposition, having learned that the untradesman-like
'alsehood of "Being connected with their Establishment,"es or " It's
the same concern," has been resorted to in many instanc, and is
obvious reasons, they beg to state that they have
No CONNEXION WITH ANT OTHER HOUSE IN OR OUT OF LONDON,
