The growing taste for musical performances of a high order
and upon an extensive scale rendered it necessary that some
suitable provision should be made at the West End of London
for such entertainments.

While this acknowledged want has long since been supplied
in Liverpool, Birmingham, and other provincial cities, the
metropolis remains singularly deficient in proper accommoda-
tion for such performances--possessing, in fact, no build-
ing well adapted to the purpose. Exeter Hall not having
been originally intended for concerts or similar performances,
its architectural proportions aro ill suited for musical effects;
it is deficient in facilities of ingress and egress, and the regu-
lations of those entrusted with the management preclude the
.performance of some of the highest works of art. The pro-
posed building will be expressly designed with a view to aid
the effect of instrumental and choral performances, either
singly or in their various combinations, and the facilities of
approach and exit will be amply provided for.
There is also a great demand for Halls of a similar descrip-
tion in a locality easily acre Bible and convenient for the aris-
tocracy. This requirement is evidenced by the large amount
of public patronage bestowed upon the Egyptian Hall, Picea-
dilly,..and the Gallery of Illustration in Regent-street.
The promoters of the present scheme propose to erect a
Grand Hall, 134 feet by 60, and 60 feet in height, and two
minor Halls, one 60 feet by 48, and the other 48 feet by 40,
and 23 feet in height.
A site peculiarly eligible for the purpose has been secured,
which will be held on lease direct from the Crown, for a term
of 75 years, and the building will have the advantage of four
distinct entrances, with frontages in Regent-street and Picea-
dilly.
Tee site in question affords ample space for all the appli-
ances necessary to render the Hallscomplete in every respect.
In add;t; on to a commodious orchestra, it is proposed to
erect galleries and boxes, with suitable waiting-rooms, with a
separate entrance and vestibule for the convenience of her
Majesty and the Royal Family, and without losing sight of a
due regard to economy, to make the St. James's Hall the
most perfect and complete building of the kind in Europe.
. Arrangements have also been made for the purchase of the
adjoining property in Regent-street, thus securing a third
minor hall, 60 feet by 40, and about 30 feet high, together
with other extensive premises, which it is proposed to convert
into a Restaurant of the first class, adjoining and communi-
cating with the Concert Rooms. Refreshmeuti of all descrip-
tions will thus be attainable at any hour ; and facilities will
be afforded for appropriating either of the halls to public
dinners or balls.

Carefully and well-matured plans and calculations have
been made of the expense of the necessary accommodation,
and the probable revanue to be derived therefrom, and the
subjoined statement is submitted wits confidence, as a fair
and moderate calculation of the probable financial results.
The Company will be formed under the Act of Parliament
of last session, which limits the liability of each shareholder
to the amount of his subscription, so that no possible risk or
danger can be incurred by the shareholders.
A deposit of 10s. per share upon the number of shares ap-
plied for must be made with the Bankers of the Company,
for which a voucher will be given, and which will be returned
in full in case no allotment of shares shall be made. Applica-
tions for shares may be made t. the SAcretary, at the Offices
of the Company ; or to Messrs. Field, Son, and Wood, stock-
brokers, Warne/oat-court, Throgmorton-street.
