ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS.

The circumstances under which subscriptions are now
invited by this Company, to a further issue of capital, are
peculiarly favourable for investors, and present the
strongest evidence of the sound and profitable character of
the undertaking, to complete which an additional outlay
is required.
As they are now planned, and being constructed, the
canals will, when completed according to the estimates of
many engineers most comPe tent to lodge, including Colonel
Rundall and the present, chief engineer of the Company,
convey water for the Irrigation of about 700,000 acres.
Adopting a temporary rate of charge for irrigation, and
estimating the returns from navigation at the very mode-
rate total of three per cent. upon the outlay (the present
chief engineer has just reported that he estimates the re-
turns upon the Tidal Canal will be at least ten per cent.),
and allowing the high charge of five per cent. for repairs,
maintenance, establishment, Fee., the net returns from the
sections now to be contpleted would be altogether twelve
the re-establishment of the original
he„ accuracy of which can be easily

up to Twenty-one per cent. net.

The' respect of an immediateblgt,
30th March, it, appears that there had then been signed,
connected with the Kendrapara Canal alone, leases (prin-
cipally for 3 years) for about 26,000 acres ; that applica-
tions from cultivators of land under the same canal were
being received at the rate of from 2,000 to 5,000 acres
daily ; and that the natives were cutting the smaller
channels necessary to convey the water to their fields
with earnestness; further, that in the vicinity of the high
level canal meetings were bring held by the Zemin-
dars, and other unmistakable signs exhibited twat
the same favourable state off affairs there as
that connected with the Rendrapara Canal was
a mere matter of a short time, and that before the coming
season large demands will be made for water. Upon the
Midnapore Canal the effect of the reduction of the water-

The works already constructed have now entered upon

confidentlyoo ac r e acres supplied u
their stage of revenue, and they offer to capitalists not only
a safe investment, but one which will, most assuredly, be
very profitable ere long ; and here it may be added, as
confirmatory of this almost immediate prospect, that the
portions of the works now in hand remaining to be exe-
cuted, consisting mainly of channels for the distribution of
the water, will neeee4elilY be the easiest of construction, as
well tie the most productive, and will add materially to O.;
percentage of returus on the whole outlay.
There is also another feature of great importance, which
mast not be omitted in the consideration of the fitness of
this undertaking for an investment. By the con: ract it is
expressly provided that the Company shall bo paid for the
water supplied for irrigation to the cultivators—not by the
cultivators themselves—but by the Government of India;
and that the price to be so paid by the Government to the
Company for such water shall be, the price charged to the
cultivators, and shall be fixed
so as to represent a fair
charge for the water to the parties using it. With refe-
rence to this stipulation, it has been a.;knowledged by the
Government that they alone are liable in respect to the
non-payment for water supplied, so that the Company are
released from all fear of liability to loss of any portion of
their water-rate. The y I-
a ue of the foregoing arrangement
can hardly be too highly prized, forming as it does a cer-
tain and safe guarantee of payment for every portion of
the water supplied for irrigation.
It has been determined by the Directors to limit, at any
rate for the present, the expenditure to about £130,000
per annum, whereby they will be enabled to make all fu-
ture calls small in amount and at regular stated periods,
not exceeding on the Whole £2per share during each
year ; at the same time they are enabled by the Act of In-
corporation to issue the required capital partly in shares
of £lO each, and partly is stock divisible into sums vary-
ing from £lO upwards —a plan which will suit the con-
venience of those who desire to limit their liability to
a fixed sum at once, and to be relieved from future
calls, and also those who may prefer to pay the amount
of capital held by them by easy ins • talments in the shape
of calls.
Applications for Shares and Stock may now be made by
filling up and forwarding either of the accompanying Forms
to the Company's Offices, 8 and 9, Queen-street-place, South-
wark-bridge, London, RC. (where a full Prospectus and
Forms of Application
may be had); but it is necessary
that it should be understood that no application will be
considered unless a deposit of £1 on each share, or of ten
pounds per cent. upon the amount of stock applied for,
has been Tiede either to the Dankers of the Company,
Messrs. Ransom, Bouverie, and Co., No. 1, Pall Mall Easy,
or at the, Offices of the Company. The Depesit will be
returned without deduction if the application is not ac-
ceded to.
