THE BRITISH GALVANIZATION OF
METAL COMPANY.
Capital, 200,000/., idlo,ooo Shares of 201.
Deposit, 21. per Share.
The object of this Company is the manufacture and sale of a
metallic preparation, hitherto unknown in this country, to pre-
serve iron and copper from rust and oxidation, the machinery and
process of which are secured by patent.
In England where these metals are so extensively used, and their
preservation from rust is of such manifest importance, the esta-
blishment of this Company cannot fail to be of the greatest in-
terest ; and an enumeration of a few of the various objects capable
of being preserved by this invention will at once shew the extensive
field opened for its operation.
Iron rails, pins, screws, and other articles used in railways. The
bright parts of the machinery connected with locomotive engines
which are necessarily exposed to the weather. The filed and
bright parts, as well as the steam-boilers, of marine engines. Water
tanks for vessels of war and other ships. Chain cables, ship's bolts,
knees, and all other iron works used in ship-building ; likewise
copper-sheathing ; all sorts of iron fixed or used in damp or wet
situations, as mines, docks, wharfs, &c. &c. Nails, screws, and all
iron-wore used in out-buildings. All copper and brass vessels used
for culinary purposes.
Desirous of making this patent as perfect as possible, its pro-
moters have delayed bringing it forward until the present moment,
in order to test its value by the experiments and calculations of
scientific and practical men ; and it is only after the fullest and
most satisfactory investigation that it is now offered to the public,
as an undertaking which cannot fail to yield large profits.
A prospectus, with ample details, will be immediately issued.

THE BRITISH GALVANIZATION OF
METAL COMPANY.
While the advertisement which has appeared in several daily
papers cautioning the public against this Company appeared in any
anonymous form, the Provisional Committee deemed it unworthy of
their notice, but the time has at length arrived when some explana-
tion is due to their Shareholders and the public at large.
Some time back, and until a very recent period, the promoters of
this Company were in treaty with the French proprietors of Sorel's
patent, in order to introduce it into the United Kingdom ; but upon
taking the opinion of an eminent English engineer, there appeared
no probability of its being worked with such success in its present
form, as to justify them in paying the enormous sum demanded for
its purchase. In this stage of their proceedings, another process
with machinery was brought under their consideration, which, ac-
cording to the report of the same engineer, after a careful examina-
tion of the specifications and experiments made upon both inven-
tions, was more easily worked, and attended with much less expense
than the French process, and to such a degree as to constitute a dis-
tinct patent.
This patent, which will soon be completed, is secured to the Com-
pany on the most advantageous terms, which must necessarily
greatly enhance the value of its shares; while its management will
be entrusted to a Board of Directors, whose names will be published
without loss of time, which will of itself be a guarantee for the
safety and valise of the undertaking.
