...A Concession has been granted by his Imperial Majesty the
Emperor of Brazil, with the concurrence of the Brazilian Le -
gislature, having for its object the introduction into the
capital of the empire, of a system of town drainage as pre-
vailing ha England.
The Concession is for 90 years ; the terms are liberal and
3).,1,8t, and framed with the view of providing the important
City of Rio de Janeiro, the population of which numbers
about 350,000 with a thorough system of good drainage, and
at the same time of securing a handsome remuneration to
those who embark in the undertaking.
The Directors have been in communication with the Bra-
zilian Minister in London, who has received instructions
from the Imperial Government to give the undertaking every
aid and encouragement. The Works to be executed by the Company are declared by
the Concession to be privileged Works of the State, and as
such entitled to special facilities and protection.
44.1 ne Concession provides for the drainage of the City in
twiree separate districts ; and also for extension of th drain-
gee beyond the limits of the present plan, when thee rate to

The Brazilian ex cent, per annum on calls
of the works, will fall within the capital
ment, to

the]) he Company 42 milreis per annum, which, at
nge, of 27d., amounts to £4 14s. 6d. for every
house now erected or hereafter built within the three districts
during the term of the concession, such payment to be made
half-yearly for all th:houses, whether occupied or not.
The number of houses, according to the last returns,
amounted in June, 1859, to 13,739 ; and adding the average
!lumber of house's yearly built. in the City, there will be, on
Fie completion of, the works (within the three districts) at
least 14,801 houses (the number provided for in the Contract)
Isom which the revenue of the Company will arise.
The amount to be received upon 14,891 houses will alone
produce a gross income to the Company of £70,360.
In addition to the above drainage payment on houses, he
Municipality of Rio is bound to pay a yearly sum of 12,000
Wire's (X 1 ,350) for cleansing and maintaining in working order
the rain-water sewers.
As regards the annual working expenses, a guaranteed con-
tract has been entered into with the same contractors who
are to execute the works for keeping them in perfect repair,
and for working the system for a period of 21 years, for a su.rn
of £ll,OOO per annum, leaving only the administration charges
to be added, and thus securing a clear net income exceeding
liksser cent, per annum on the capital of .E 650,000
To the above must be added the important profits to accrue
to the Company from the exclusive right, which the concession
accords, of executing on account of the house proprietors and
nninicipality, and at their expense, all extra drainage works
connected with the houses and City. The growing commercial
and social importance of Rio, and the rapid increase of its
tp.ulation, renders it obvious that the profit arising from
aadndditt
Xrtroe must be considerable.
