ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS.

The successOlii; Foreign and Colonial Government
Trust, which was formed in May, 1868, has called for an
extension of this mode of investment.
In compliance, therefore, with a general desire, it has
been determined to open a subscription for a second issue.
not exceeding • £600,000, in Certificates of XICO, to bear 5
per cent. interest, to be issued at £BO.
The object, which is now well understood, is to give to
the Investor of moderate means the same advantages as
the large capitalist, in diminishing the risk of investing in
Foreign and Colonial Government Stocks, by spreading
the investment over a number of different Stocks, and
reserving a portion of the extra interest and the. amounts
received in redemption as a Sinking Fund to pay off the
original capital ; and, in addition, to give to each Sub-
slriber a pro rata participation in the ultimate reversion in
these different Stocks. which will remain when the return
-of the original capital has by these means been accom-
plished.
The Trust of the Second Issue will last for twenty-five
years, at the expiration of which time it is estimated that
a large proportion of the Certificates will, in all probabi-
lity, have been paid off, and that a large proportion of the
Stocks will still remain for distribution as a reversion;
accordingly the Trust will be wound up as soon as all the
Certificates have been drawn, or at the end of twenty-five
years, whichever shall first happen, the remaining Stocks
being then sold, and any Certificates not previously drawn
being first paid off, after which the balance will form the
reversion to be distributed pro rata.
For ,each £BO of the total amount subscribed will be
issued a Certificate of £l.OO with Coupons attached, bearing
5 per cent. interest, payable at the.4"Banking-house of
Messrs. Glyn, Mills, Currie, and Co. half yearly, on the
15th of January and the 15th of July, the first Coupon for
the proportion of the half year falling due on the 15th
July next.
In addition to the Interest Coupons, a Coupon, repre-
senting the share accruing to the Cortiticate-holder in the
above reversion, will be attached to each Certificate. This
Coupon of Reversion will be retained by the holder when
the Certificate is drawn, and entitle him to a pro rata divi-
sion of the ultimate reversion.
The advantages of the investment may be summed up
as follows:
1. Interest at £Gs. bs. per cent. on the -amount sub-
scribed.
2. A bonus of £2O per cent. by the repayment of capi-
tal at par.
3. A revel sion, eventually divisible among the holders
• of the Coupons of Reversion.
Application to be made in the annexed Form, accom-
panied by a deposit of £lO per cent.
Payments to be made as follows :
O n application £lo 0 0
On allotment 7O 0 0

by Mr. B. L. MOSELY, the Dentist by special appointment,
312, REGENT-STREET, exactly opposite the Royal Polytechnic, and
23, MoORGATE-STREET, CITY, Established 1820. This, the most
perfected system of painless dentistry, originated and invented by
Mr. B. L. Mosely, is recommended by the Hospitals and adopted
by the profession as one of the greatest improvements of the age
for the alleviation of pain and restoration of the natural functions,
can solely be obtained in such perfected success (the result of
forty years' practical experience) at his only residences, as above.

pain, no operations, stumps and decayed teeth rendered useful,
loose teeth and tender gums protected. Qualities: These teeth
never change colour or decay—in fit unerring ease and comfort
unsurpassed —detection impossible—the facial anatomy faithfully
studied - and youthful appearance restored—mastication and arti-
culation guaranteed. The " Times" of March 6 says :—" So good
an imitation becomes the next best thing to the original." Teeth
from 55.; sets, sto 30 guineas. Consultation free.—Only addresses,
312, Regent-street, exactly facing the Royal Polytechnic; and 23,
Moorgate-street, E. C., opposite the Star Insurance Office.

A VETERAN.—A vacancy in the Kilmainham
Royal Hospital has been created by the death of an old
sergeant named John Rice, who lived to the age of 96
years.die was 75 years old when admitted, after 14
years' service. He fought at Flushing, Salamanca, the
Pyrenees, Badajoz, where he was one of the forlorn hope,
and at Bayonne. He was wounded in the head, and dis-
charged with a ball still lodged in his body. For some
years past he had been bedridden, and it is stated that he
would have long since died if he had not been admitted to
the hospital. Among the candidates for the vacant place
is a man who is now 78 years of age and bedridden. He
served 25 years, and was in all the great actions in the
Peninsula and at Waterloo, He has nine clasps as dis-
tinctions for his services.. -
