The advantage which the public will derive from the esta-
blishment of a Crystal Palace on the north side of London,
where it will be readily accessible to three-fourths of the me-
topolitan population, as well as to country visitors by the
Great Western, London and North Western, Great Northern,
Midland, and Eastern Counties Railways, has now been re-
cognised by all classes of the community, and arrangements
are in progress for ensuring the construction of the building
upon terms which will leave no doubt as to the profitable re-
state of the undertaking.
In the meantime, the Muswell Hill Land Company (Limited)
has been formed for the purpose of securing immediate pos-
session of the whole estate on which the palace is intended to
be erected ; and this Company will reserve the sight for the
palace and grounds for a sufficient period to enable definitive
-tenders to be received from responsible contractors for the
execution of the works at a fixed price, •
The purehaSe-money agreed to be paid for the property, in-
cluding the mansion a-,td the timber, is £135,000, and the owners
have consented to t-;ite payment as follows, viz.:—£,`O,OOO, in
ZOOO shares fully ',aid up. A deposit of £15,000 on signing the
'agreement, and the balance of- £50,000 at any time or times
-within three rears, at the option of the Company, with interest
at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum. In the event of the Com-
pany not availing itself of the option to complete the purchase
within three years from the date of the agreement, the whole
of the deposit of £15,000 will be returned to the Company.
The estate consists of 457 acres of park-like land, all in
grass, well supplied with water, interspersed with ornamen-
tal thriber, beautifUlly undulated, and commanding views of
an extensive and varied character.
It is situated on the line of the Great Northern Railway,
wifhin five miles from King's-cross, and the Wood Green
Station of that Company stands on the estate,
The land is admirably adapted for suburban villas, and on
the opening of the Metropolitan Railway it may be reached in
about 15 minutes from Parringdon-street.
This direct access by Railway to the heart of London, will,
of itself, considerably enhance the value of the property, alto-
gether irrespective of the advantage to be derived from the
erection of the Palace.
The ,e•reat increase in the value of land in the vicinity of the
Crystal Palace at Sydenham is worthy of record in this pros-
pectus. The Directors of that Company sold their surplus
land, amounting to about 130 acres, within 12 months of the
formation of the Company, al a profit of £3OO per acre. A
considerable portion has bee-a re-sold at a further profit of
£7OO per acre, and the remainder is now being sold at a net
profit of £1,300 per acre.
It will therefore obvie
.asly be to the interest of this Com-
pany to treat on lib,eral terms with the Great Northern
Palace Company, for the transfer to them of 150 acres, in con-
sideration of the la :Re additional profit which will be obtained
on the remaining 300 acres, in consequence of the construction
of such a building as the Palace on the property.
It will be stipillated that a free ticket of admission to the
Palace and gro-ands for ten years shall be given to the holders
of land shares in respect of every ten shares which may be
held by then-1 at the time of the allotment of the Palace shares,
and that a proportionate allotment of those shares shall be •
reserved for the shareholders in this company.
It is not intended to make any call until the question of the
erection of the Palace shall have been settled, when a general
meeting of the shareholders will be called to consider the pro-
posed arrangements, and, as the land can then be realised to
great advantage, it is highly probable that no further payment on the shares beyond the deposit of £2 10s. will ever be re-
quired, and at all events no call will be made during the year
1860.

_ Each application for shares must be accompanied 'with a
deposit of £1 per share upon the number of shares applied for.
If no allotment be made to the applicant the deposit will be
returned in full.
Applications for the remaining shares ~nay be made to the
Directors, at the Offices of the Compan:/, al, Gresham House,
Old Broad-street, City ; or to Messrs„Field, Son, and Wood,
stockbrokers, 9, Warnford-court, Throgmorton-street, on or
before Tuesda.' the 22d instant.
