ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS.
The success of the 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 .EICO, to bear 5
per cent. interest, to be issued at £BO.
The object, which is now well understood, is to give to
the Lvestor of moderate means the same advantages as
the large capitalist, in diminishing t he 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 is redemption as a Sinking Fund to pay off the
original capital ; and, in addition, to give to each Sub-
foriber a pro rata participation in the ultimate reversion in
these different Stocks, which will remain wjen 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 i e 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 £lOO with Coupons attached, bearing
5 per cent. interest, payable at the Banking-house of
Messrs. Glyc, 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 duo on the 15th
July next.
In addition to the Interest Coupons, a Coupon repre-
senting the share accruing to the Certificate-ho 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 summod up
as follows:

1. Interest at £6s. be. per cent, on the :amount sub-
scribed.
2. A bonus of £2O per cent. by the repayment of capi-
tal at par.
3. A reversion, 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 :
On application £lo 0 0
On allotment 7O 0 0
