- PROSPECTUS.
1;t a time when the capital of the country has been so liberally
ehied, through the medium of Joint. stock Companies in prornot-
, g objects of great public interest and national utility, it is singu-
!at' that no such measure has yet been adopted for supplying, under
Chore favourable circumstances than at present exist, an article of
s
...4eh general and important use as coal. The vastly increased eon-
""raption which of late years has taken place in large towns lying
?tit of the coal districts, and more especially in the metropolis,
rendeis it an object of the first importance that these places should
ty ce the advantage of being steadily supplied not only with a suffi-
ent quantity, but that also of the best quality, and under the
_s
t favourable circumstances.
%It is a well ascertained fact that many of the coal mines in Nor-
441berland, upon which the public have been hitherto mainly de-
Trident, are now nearly exhausted, at least so far as regards their
T°aPability of supplying the better description of coals, and it there-
re becomes important that consumers should not be reduced to
the
necessity of deriving their supply from that or any other quarter
eZsere inferior coal is only to be had when ample resources are in
tence for providing an efficient supply with greater advantage.
exin the Southern Division of the county of Durham, in particular,
chat, fields of coal of the very best description are found to
I.4_4st, which as yet have been but
_partially worked; but it has now
az'en determined to conduct several of these upon a system of more
idended operation, and this determination is likely to be much
w`ued by the recently established and newly projected lines of Rail-
al
rlich will facilitate the communication between these collieries
the present shipping ports on the Tees, as well as with the im-
ta t port of Hartlepool.
the
order to secure the full effects of these advantages, and under
env conviction that they will be best secured by a combination of
frgy and the employment of capital on an extended scale, it has
ly
determined to establish " The Durham County Coal Corn-
dthat several of the collieries now in the hands of private indivi-
"all are realizing very large annual profits on the invested capital
Zheyond questio, and when the immensely increased and increas-
g consumption of coal not only in London but in the various other
Parts of
ath is country which are dependent for their supply upon the
ie
in the North, and also the growing demand in Continen-
th.Ports, are considered, there appears no reason to doubt that
',e liberal profits will continue to be maintained.
If sufficient number of Shares having already been subscribed for.
tale Provisional Committee of the Company have urchased seve-
▪ valuable and extensive Collieries, which are now in successful
and the produce of which maintain a first-rate character
iier`l'e London Market. They have also purchased two other Col-
revres now in progress of completion, which, m the course of a
quantity
will be capable of producing for shipment, a large
pity of the best Wall's End Coals.
