PROSPECTUS.

The object of this Company is to purchase from Mr. Simp-
son, the present well-known and successful proprietor—who
retires, having realised an ample fortune from the profits of
this undertaking,— the Lease, Goodwill, and Plant of these
head-quarters of suburban recreation and enjoyment.
The Cremorne property is held at the nominal ground
rent of £B3 per annum, the Ashburnham portion included,
for an unexpired term of nearly thirty-three years. As
evidence of the confidence entertained in the success of
the proposed Company, nearly one-half of the capital has
been already subscribed. Mr. Simpson becomes one of
the largest shareholders in the undertaking, and will ac-
cept a seat in the Direction immediately after the for-
mation of the Company, thus affording- the Board the benefit
of his co-operation in the management. Arrangements have
also been made for the retention of the services of his efficient
and well-organised staff, thus ensuring the correct and eco-
nomical working of the business.
Some idea of the profits of these Gardens may be
gained from the fact, that on the occasion of the Fete
in aid of the Wellington College, after payment of all
expenses, Mr. Simpson paid over to the Trustees of the
Charity, as the proceeds of the night's entertainment, £1,200 ;
and on the occasion of the Aristocratic Fete a profit of .£l,lOO
was realised, and presented to public charities.
The capital called is ample for the requirements of
the business. The purchase-money for the lease, plant, and
goodwill, will not exceed two-thirds of the amount. The
contemplated additions and alterations will be carried out
upon principles of the strictest economy, and will not, it is
anticipated, employ more than half the eapital remaining
after the completion of the purchase.
Since the year 18.50, the income has gone on steadily and
rabidly increasing. The books of the establishment have
been strictly kept, and have been examined, and the
accounts audited by Mr. Scrivener, the public accountant;
and the average profits of the last five years show that an
income equal to a dividend of 20 per cent. upon the capital
employed may be confidently anticipated, and that these
profits, by a small judicious outlay, are capable of being
greatly increased.
It is also proposed that every holder of not less than twenty
shares shall be entitled to a free admission for himself and
friend, subject, however, to such conditions as may be deter-
mined upon by the direction.
It must be borne in mind that this is no new or speculative
undertaking, the experimental period, so often fatal to new
enterprises of the most promising kind, having, in the
case of these Gardens, long since passed by ; while, by the
experience and industry of Mr. Simpson, a system of check
has been perfected, which precludes not only losses by frauds,
but reduces the expenses of the concern to the minimum, in-
sures the regularity of the working, and places the estimate
of profits, as above put forward by the Board, among the
most reliable ever submitted to the public.
All applications for Shares to be made to the Brokers of
the Company, Messrs Holderness, Fowler, and Co., Change-
