the undertaking (from an inaccuracy in the eltimates) it is not
intended to create any additional Shares, fo at to lower the value

Rates and Duties, as may be thought fufilcient to enable the Dock
Company to complete the undertaking, without Ws to themfelves.
A fuperior advantage attends purchafing Shares in this concern
over that of any other of a fimitar kind, viz.
That the additional Rates will bccrme Immediately payable,
though the Works are not completed, and even ihould Parliament
not be difpofed to grant fuck additional Rate/, a fair prefent in.
tereft will be obtained, arkl the great increafe of trade which will
naturally follow the :zecution of the Plan, will give such an ad-
ditional Income as to afford hereafter ample remuneration to the
Subferibers.

Wm. Arid, broker, Briftol ; or to Mr. Willock, Golden-fquare,
