THE THAMES TUNNEL COMPANY.

TIIE attention of the Public is solicited by
the Directors of the Company to the present state of
the Tunnel. Already have 600 feet of the Tunnel been
made perfect and complete, and 300 feet more will carry
it to low-water-mark, on the north shore of the river, near
Wapping.

The Reports of the Directors, and of Mr. Brunel, the
Engineer of the Company, made to a general meeting of
the Proprietors, assembled on the 11th of June, inst., are
before the public, who must now be satisfied of the cer-
tainty that the Tunnel may, with the aid of sufficient funds,
be completed, and that the probable amount of tolls will
exceed the interest of the money required.
Under the authority of the Act of Parliament, and with
the sanction of the Proprietors, the Directors have resolved
to issue Debentures (in sums of 201., 301., 40/., 501., and
1001. and upwards), bearing an interest of five per cent.
per annum, payable to bearer, and charged on the tolls and
revenue arising from the estates and property of the Com-
pany, such Debentures to have a priority over all the
Shareholders. The amounts of Debentures to ke sub-
scribed for will be called for by instalments, according as
the works proceed ; and until the tolls are in the course of
payment, the visitors' money (which now produces, on an
average, from 2,000/. to 3,0001. a year,) will be applied
in paying the interest on the instalments.
Books for the signature of those who are desirous of tak-
ing Debentures, in order that the Tunnel may be com-
pleted, are opened at this office, and at various Banking-
houses in town and country, where may be seen the Report
and Resolutions of the Directors, and the Report of the
Engineer.

Until 100,0001 shall be agreed to be taken, the works
are peremptorily ordered to be stopped.
The instalments upon Debentures will only be called for
at the rate of 10 per cent, per month.
By Order of the Court of Directors,
CHARLES BUTLER,
Clerk to the Company.
The Tunnel is opened for the inspection of visitors.
