ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS.
The Directors invite applications for the unissued shares
in this Company, numbering 5,000, for the purpose of
;er.,rrying out a valuae concession from the Hanoverian
yovernm ent, giving an exclusive right for 30 years to lay
English
and work a submarine telegraph cable between the
,miglish and Hanoverian coasts, and the same exclusive
right to lay land wires to certain important places in Ger-
many.
The number of messages between England and Ger-
°en Any in the four years ending 1864 had increased 130 per
ct., and in the last two years alone 80 per cent.
. The Electric and International Telegraph Companyhave
'peed to an arrangement guaranteeing a minimum amount
°t traffic by the cable, which, under the conditions of the
e°lloession, and under normal circumstances, will produce a
Minimum annual revenue equal to 15 per cent. on the total
amount of capital required, as certified by the well-known
!tecountants, Messrs. Quilter, Ball, and Co.
This minimum is entirely exclusive of the continually-
Poe urea sing profits of the business purchased from Mr.
eter.
The cable will be manufactured and laid down by the
Telegraph Construction and Maintenance Company, who
have taken one-fourth of the amount of their contract in
Shares of the Company. It will probably be ready for the
North transmission of messages by the end of August next.
The durability of cables in7shallow waters, such as the
Sea, where the Company's cable will be laid, is
Proved by experience. They aro as safe, and can be re-
Paired almost as easily, as land wires. The existing cables
ti), Rolland have been laid several years, and that between
Oyer and Calais 15 years, and they continue at the pre-
sent time in good working order.
There is no promotion money, nor any commission paid
for obtaining the concession, Mr. Reuter having handed it
over to the Company gratis.

Should no allotment be made the amount will be returned
without deduction.
