The reputation of the Blaenavon Iron, and the well-known
success of these Works, during a period of forty years, sustain
for this undertakisi the character of a legitimate and lucrative
investment
An investigation of the books, during a period of extreme depres-
sion, and a calculation based upon the prices of iron for fifteen years
(since 1821), justify a confident expectation of an annual dividend
W. 10 per cent. ; but if the prosperity of the Iron trade continue, a
ranch larger dividend will be realised.
The Shareholders will be entitled to the profits from Midsummer
Ilett, so that a dividend may be expected at Christmas, 1836.
Applications far Shares, in writing (postage paid), will be re-
eeived by James Ashwell, Esq., at the office of the Company, No. 4,
Adav-i's-court, Broad-street, where Prospectuses, with additional

of Monmouth, with ulterior views of extending the establishment,
by purchase of the interests of existing Bankers, or otherwise,
through the whole of the neighbouring districts. •
The clear profit of the three Banks above mentioned, for the
Sett. ending Dec. 31, 1835, was at the rate of upwards of 20 per

One-fifth to the present partners, at par.
Twc.,fifths to such customers of the Bask as may wish to take

amongst such local residents or influential persons, as may be likely
to promote the'interests of the Bank.
The remaining fifth of the Shares to be sold to the public, at
such premiums as may be agreed upon.
The money to arise from the premiums on the different classes
of Shares. to be dispossd of as follows :
Three-fourth parts thereof to be paid to Messrs. Jones and
Illewitt, as a compensation for the relinquishment to the Com-
pany of their business ; and the remaining fourth part thereof, after
satisfying all expenses incidental to the formation of the Company,
i 1 to be carried to a reserve, or provisional fund, for the general
benefit of the Shareholders.
The premiums on the Shares, together with a deposit, or first

Jones shall be Chairman, and Mr. Blewitt Deputy Chairman. The
general affairs of the Company to be regulated and managed by

;Bankini, Companies), Messrs. Jones and Blewitt alone will, for one
itear at least, have the right to inspect, regulate, and coutroul the
ledger accounts, and discount operations, of each particular custotoer.
The qualification of a Director to be the possession of one hun-
dred Shares in his own right.
