THE TIMBER CARRYING COMPANY.
A ' COMPANY was proposed a short time since for the here'
fit of the Consumers of Timber, which is now made cOm-
plate ; and the same reasons which induced the parties to bring,
that Company forward, exist to a greater ext in the Mode of
Transit, hence arises the necessity of th resent Company
The great extent of this Trade must vident, and those
gaged in it are put to considerable • onvenience for want 0,
sufficient means for the conveyance of Timber to places where
sold; consequently, much delay and extra expense are caused
either to the Parties Selling or Buying, or great loss to the
Team Keeper, from detention at the Wharfs where the Timber
is to be Shipped.
The inconveniences are so much felt, that notwithstandit
the frenzied height to which Public Companies have arrived,
yet depending on the intrinsic merits of this undertaking',---
from its great necessity,—it is brought forward with a confidence
that the Public will see its utility; and at once give their sup-
port for the benefit of such a large and important branch of the
Commerce of this Port as the Timber Trade.
As a prospect of recompense for the investment necessary, it
is sufficient to know, that the Trade will be great Subscribers to
a concern so needful to them; therefore, this Company may de-
pend on being fully employed, consequently, that beneficial re-
sults must accrue is certain and evident.
The Capital to'be raised by 20,000 Shares of £lO each, Pay-
able, £1 in 14 days after appointment of Directors and Trustees,
and each call afterwards to be made as it may be found neces-
sary; but not to exceed £2, or in a less period than two months
from the preceding call. Is per Share to he paid on 'receiving'
the Scrip, to defray contingent expenses in forming the Com-
pany. .

As. soon as the allotment of Shares is male, a meeting of the
Shareholders shall be called to appoint proper Officers,• and .'
Bank for deposits, when the Deed of Settlement will be read
over, then the Company shall be considered as formed; and.the
business proceeded with.

THE RATCLIFF AND EAST METROPOLITAN EQUI-
TABLE GAS COMPANY.
CAPITAL £150,000, IN 30,0 a) SHARES OF £5 EACH.
DEPOSIT £1 PER SHARE.
MHIS Company has been formed in order to obviate the
_1 great difficulties the Consumers of Gas in the Eastern
Division of London have had to contend.with; the Directors
purpose supplying a pure Gas at 30 per cent. under +.he rates as
at present paid, securing an ample supply not only to the con-
sumers by burner, but also to those that burn by me r, for whom
a separate main will be laid down.
This Company does not come forward others have done,
"upon the ground of public good," while they afford the
public the great-advantage they promise, yet in so doing the
secure to themselves and to the shareholders a dividend of 15
per cent, for their capital embarked.
The immense and continued increase in the consumption of
Gas, both for public and private use, renders a Company of this
description beyond doubt a sure and certain investment, as
many years will not elapse before it supercedes the use of fuel
altogether, as its utility in heating and culinary purposes are
now fully established; its economy and cleanliness will make it
the more desirable for such purposes.
From the many and recent improvements, both in the manu-
facture of Gas and in the construction of Works and Machinery,
this Company does possess great advantages over any at present
established, having the benefit of all without the original expense.
The Directors are determined to adhere to the strictest eee"
nomy, both in the construction Of works and in every other
branch of the establishment, and by so doing they can pledge
themselves to supply Gas at the reduction as stated, and' at the
same time ensure to the shareholders a larger Dividend than
any other similar Company ever did pay. - •

LIVERPOOL AND MANCHESTER FOREIGN
BANKING COMPANY.
SUBSCRIBED. CAPITA £2,000,000, in 40,000 SHARES OF
£5O EACH.
mo be under the management of a Chairman and eight XDi-
rectors, with power to increase their number to twelve at
the first general Meeting of Subscribers, three to retire annually,
but he eligible for re-election.
The head Bank to be in Liverpool, and, if necessary,
Branches in Manchester, Glasgow, and Leeds, such Branch
Establishments to be under the superintendence of a local
board of Directors.
Agencies to be established in every. Foreign Market the
trade of which being of sufficient importance to, justify such
connexion.
The Shares to be divided in the followi roportions, viz.
Liverpool District, 5,000 Shares ; ichester District, 5,000
Shares • Glasgow and Edinburgh, fi",000 Shares; Yorkshire,
5,000 Shares; provided, however, it may appear to the Pro-
visional Managethent that a more extended distribution will ad-
vance the interests of the Establishment, they will be empow-
ered to alter or increase the proportion laid down above, so as
to embrace such towns as may be interested in the general ob-
jects of the Company. The remaining Shares to be offered to
the different Foreign Agencies, in such proportions as the Di-
rection may think most advisable.
Should an increase of Capital be required to meet the wishes
of the different Home or Foreign Stations, a creation of new
Shares to take place, and such Premium charged as the state
and prospects of the Company at the time shall warrant, the
direction in fixing the same being carried to the credit of the
Bank.
Each person on becoming.a Shareholder shall pay 2s. 6d. pir
Share to the credit of the Provisional Committee, for the pur-
pose of defraying the Expences incidental to the formation of
the Company.
A first call of £2 10s. per Share to be paid into the Royal

giving twenty-one day's notice. . .
Future calls not-to exceed £2 10s. per Share, and at such
time as the Direction shall decide upon, giving one month's
notice.
The establishment of this Company will confer great benefitS
upon the community by giving solidity and a bona fide character
to the money transactions of our foreign commerce. The faci-
lities which it will afford to Merchants and Shippers and the en-
conragement which it will in all cases give to real operations.,
will tend to promote a steady and well regulated interchange of
commodities with the different markets in which we trade,
whilst the just controul which it will be enabled to exercise over
the fluctuations of money will effectually check those operations
upon the course of exchange which are so injurious to the re-
gular trader, producing at the same time a degree of certainty
in the result of mercantile speculations to which our present
imperfect system of money communication is an effectual bar.
The evils which have resulted from the unnatural combina-
tion of the two distinct professions, that of the merchant and the
banker, have been felt, and by this Company will be obviated.
Confining its attention exclusively to banking operations, it,
is presumed that its assistance will be the more readily em-
braceJ, and its local situation, in tine heart of the great Produc-
ing-districts of the country, will establish it at once as the most
direct and least expensive medium of exchange and discount
for our large and increasing foreign commerce.
To. assist in carrying into effect these valuable objects a Lon-
don banker will be appointed, with whom bills on the Comporty
may be made payable, and foreign paper exchanged through
the central money market of the kingdom, free of
extra com-
mission.
Previous to laying this Prospectus before the Public, the
Provisional Committee have addressed circulars to most of the
leading Merchants and Manufacturers in the Counties to which
the Bank is proposed to extend, stating more at large their
views, and claiming for the establishment that support which
its merits deserve, at the same time requesting any suggestion
or information necessary to render it as little liable to objection
as possible. In this course they are happy to say that their
views have been fully met.
Applications for Shares may be made to (if by letter, Vst--
paid) Messrs. MILLER and PEeL, Solicitors, Harrington-
street; to Messrs. Timm As MAIN and Co., 30, Exchange"
alley North, Liverpool; or to Mr. JA4ES Gomm BAKER, h
