PROSPECTUS.

The object of this Company is to establish a system of elec-
trical communication, based on the principle of the penny
postage, to convey messages throughout the United Kingdom
at a low and uniform rate—a shilling for a short message, or
some equivalent charge, irrespective of distance.
To effect this the Company have adopted Mr. Allan's
systems in Electro-Telegraphy, by the adaptation of which
there will be an estimated economy of from 30 to 40 per cent.
in first cost and working expenses.
A special Act of Parliament has been obtained empowering
the Company to establish telegraphic communication hrough-
out the United Kingdom, and clothing the Company with all
other
compulisory powers necessary in carrying out the
undertaking.
ro bring telemphic communication within the reach of
the million,- is fa create a traffic of a progressive character
/similar to the universal penny of our postal system.
The universal system of a franc for a short message, which
/as been for some time adopted in and throughout Switzer-
land, is found to be a valuable boon, and in all respects a
great success. In America, where the tariff of charges is very
low, the lines pay high dividends, and, as a consequence, tele-
graphic stock is in great favour.
It is proposed by this Company to place London in direct
circuit correspondence with the more important seats of com-
merce and trade throughout the country. These will form
the trunk or through lines of communication, such as
London direct with Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool,
and afterwards with Edinburgh, Glasgow, Newcastle, Hull,
York, Leeds, Belfast, Dublin, Cork, Bristol, Plymouth,
_Portsmouth, Southampton, Brighton, Carlisle, Cheltenham,
.fie. dco
These will form the sub-centres of direct wire circuit
With the various towns in their more immediate localities.
The capital sow to be subscribed, to form the first section
of the undertaking—for further operations which it may be
found desirable to carry out, the shares will be offered to
existing subscribers.
Prospectuses, forms of applications for shares, and all
necessary information may be obtained at the Share Brokers,
and of the secretary, at the Temporary Offices of the Com-
pany.

This Company has been formed for the purpose of meeting
the increasing demand for superior hotel accommodation
within a convenient distance of the Metropolis.
Slough has always been considered one of the most healthy
spots in the kingdom. The promenades include Eton Col-
lege, Windsor Castle, Virginia-water, Taplow, Stoke-park
and church, the Burnham Beeches, and many other places of
equal beauty and celebrity. Fishing, shooting, and hunting
are all within reach, and it is proposed, in compliance with
the wishes of several gentlemen who hunt with the Royal
stag hounds, the Prince Consort's harriers, and other packs,
to set apart a portion of the hotel for their exclusive use,
with a view to the formation of a hunt club.
The Directors have purchased, on favourable terms, the
well-known Royal Hotel at Slough, and propose, by judicious
alterations and additions, to make great improvements in
the sleeping accommodation. The public and private dining
rooms are excellent, and require but few alterations to afford
ample space for several hundred visitors, whilst an almost
sathmited number may be accommodated under marquees and
tents-on the extensive lawns on such occasions as the Ascot
and Egham races, the Windsor and Slough steeplechases, the
Eton and other regattas, wedding parties, &c.
In addition to the usual accommodation, there will be sepa-
rate rooms for billiards, reading, and smoking, while the
beautiful and extensive grounds afford ample space for out-
door exercise and amusements. It is intended, by paying
particular attention to the culinary department, to attract
many of the numerous dinner parties which it is now the
summer season fashion to hold in the vicinity of London, and
which have made certain hotels possessing fewer advantages
than the one at Slough very lucrative investments for capital.
The Hotel, notwithstanding the proposed additions and
alterations, will, it is expected, be ready for the reception of
'visitors in the autumn, before the hunting season commences;
and thus afford to the shareholders an early as well as a pro-
fitable return for the capital invested.
The Hotel is close to the station, and, by express, within
25 minutes of London ; and, as the terminus is shortly to be
extended to the city, the Great Western will be as accessible
as any other railway to all parts of the metropolis.
The Directors have also secured the extensive and very
superior stabling formerly attached to the hotel, but now
temporarily occupied by Thomas Young, including the tap.
two cottages, and large kitchen garden. The tap is in full
business, and, from the number of horses kept at Slough
during the hunting season, great profits must necessarily be
derived from this department, which will be placed under the
superintendence of a competent person, • and no expense
spared to secure the health and comfort of the horses.
The property is freehold, and exempt from tithe and land
tax, except a portion of the stabling, which is on lease, for an
• unexpired term of 298 years. at a peppercorn rent.
Application for shares mu At be forwarded, post paid, to the
solicitors, brokers, or the offices of the Company, 3, Hanover-
square ; at either of which places prospectuses may be ob-
tained.
