PROPOSED TONTINE. RRIDGE ACROSS THE SWALE.
AT OR NEAR KING'S FERRY, ISLE OF SHEPPY.
~IIE Proposed undertaking k not a theoretical or
speculative scheme to .raise a sum of money for an object
which may, or may not, be either practicable or useful, for it is ad-
mitted by atl persons acquainted with the situation, that a Bridge
across the Swale into Sheppy, would be a work of great public
utility, and can be built without much d'Sculty or expense. The
increasing trAffic to Sheerness, in consequence of the important
Naval Improvements carrying on there (and which will, no doubt,
be followed by comipondent establishments in the other public
departments), promises a good return on the capitalto be invested
fur the undertaking.

It is proposed to raise £24,000, by 2,000 shares of £l2 each.
No money to be paid until the whole of the shares are taken.
The Company to be governed by 'twelve Directors in the county
of Kent, and six in London.
When the whole of the shares are taken. Directors to be nom!.
mated, and a deposit of £2 on each share to be paid into the hands
eif Ilona% D. H. Day and Sons, bankers, Rochester, in the name
of the Company.
The necessary application then to be made to Parliament for a
Bill, and the Directors to order plans and specifications to be pre-
pared, that the proposed work may be conducted with economy,
and in such manner as to ensure durability.
When the Act is obtained, a General Meeting of the Proprietors
is to be convened, and the Directors are to lay before them a
Plan, or Plans, for their consideration and adoption. The Pro.
prietors will thou be required to pay the remaining £lO on each
Share, and give the Name, Age, Place of Birth, and Residence of a
Person, or the Names, Ages, places of Birth, and Residences of Per-
sons to be inserted in his or her Share or Shares (with the option of
naming the same Life for one or more Shares), which Names shall
be immediately registered; and on the death of a nominee in the
Share or Shares, such Share or Shares shall be cancelled, and the
benefit or Property thereof cease. This system to be pursued until
the number of Shares is reduced to 500, and the holders of the
said SOO Shares, in which the Survivors are named, are to be the
Proprietors of the Bridge, Tells, &c. such Shares to continue
afterwards as bona fide property, and to be saleable or transferable.
When the Deposit of seit is made, Receipts will be given, and the
Shares may be sold or tranferred when an Act is obtained ; the
Proprietor who pays the remaining £lO having the right of naming
the Life or Lives to be inserted in his or her Share or Shares. After
the full amount of the Shares is paid they may be sold or trans.
fared, so long as the person named therein is alive.
The accounts of the profits of the Company shall be made up,
and Dividends paid to the Proprietors quarterly ; but such Shares
only are to participate therein as contain the name of a person whe
Is alive on the last day of the Quarter, proof of which will (if ne-
cessary) be required.
If the whole of the amount subscribed should not be expended
in completing the work, the balance is not to be returned to the
subscribers. but to be considered as the stock of the Company, and
to be kept (together with such interest as may accumulate thereon,)
for the purpose of repairing the bridge, for making or amending
roads, or for such other purposes connected with the undertaking
as the Directors may think fit, and whatever sum (if any) should
remain when the shares are reduced to 500, it shall be the propeitt
of the holders of those shares.
When the Company are in possession of funds (either from
subscriptions or otherwise), for which there is not likely to be an
itnturchate call, the Director:, are to invest the same in good security
for the benefit of the Proprietors.
This plan has been submitted io several Gentlemen of respecta-
bility in the County, who appiove thereof, and have subscribed to
the undertaking.
Applications for shares to.he made (if by letter, post paid) to
Younz, aril Co. Rectory House, St. Mich..ers-alley,
Conthill, London; us to Mr. W. W. Bentham, Sheerness.
