IT is proposed to establish in Liverpoo JOINT STOCK
SOAP BOILING COMPANY o n extensive scale, and
to unite in its support all classes of sons engaged in the trade
in this article in Liverpool and th neighbourhood.
It cannot be denied that large fortunes have been made by
Manufacturers of Soap in tiverpool and other parts of the
Kingdom during the last lei, years; and this towa, possessing
great facilities in procuring the Materials of Manufacture at a
less charge than elsewhere, has, in addition to its Share of the
Home Trade, obtained nearly an exclusive enjoyment of the
Export to Foreign Markets. It has therefore been considered
that a Joint Stock Company for the Manufacture of Soap, esta-
blished in Liverpool, and conducted with good management,
will possess peculiar advantages.
It is intended that the undertaking shall be called " THE
LIVERPOOL JOINT STOCK SOAP WORKS." 'That
the Capital shall consist of £lOO,OOO. in 10,000 Shares of £lO
each, and that no Shareholder shall hold more than 100 Shares.
That the affairs of the Company shall be under the manage-
ment of Seven Directors, (three to be a quorum,) to be elected
by the Shareholders at their first General 'Meeting.
A general outline of Regulations for conducting the affairs of
the Company will be submitted by the Provisional Committee
to the Shareholders, at their first Meeting, and upon the basis
of those Regulations, to be then (or at an adjourned Meeting,)
approved of by the Sharehtlders, the Deed of Settlement of the
Company will be prepared for immediate execution. A holder
of five Shares to have one vote, of twenty Shares two votes, and
of thirty Shares and upwards three votes, at the first General

IVISIONAL COMMITTEE,

in the Chair,
Mr. J. N. WOOD,
Mr. MILLER,
Mr. CLINT.

I'RES
W. F. PORTER,
Mr. AIKIN,
Mr. SWAINSTON,
Mr. GARROW,
It teas resolved,
That the Capital and number of Shares be as stated in the
Prospectus.
That, great as the Trade of the Port of Liverpool has become,
it is nevertheless obvious that the number of Boats that can be
usefully and profitably employed in the Towing of Vessels must
be limited to its wants; it is therefore inexpedient to create a
larger Capital than would beieiiiiired in their construction and
management. •

That this Committee have,f,ig&qmined to give a preference in
allotting the Shares to such iddividuals as are either Ship-
owners themselves, or so connected with Ships as effectually to
promote the interests of the Company.
That, as the number of Shares already applied for so far ex-
ceeds[the number required, it is very desirable that applications
be made forthwith to the principal Shipowners, and request them
to joiu the Company; and that a cony of the Resolutions be sent,
with a Prospectus, to each; and that the Secretary he requested
to call personally upon them.

W. F. PORTER, Chairman.
N.B.—The Secretary to the Provisional Committee of the
" Liverpool Steam Towing Company" is authorised to St ate -to-
the Pub Lie-that the Pilots' Committee are not in any way connect-
ed with the " St. George's Channel Steam, Pilot, and Towing
Company."

LIVERPOOL FLINT GLASS COMPANY.
CAPITAL, £20,000, IN SHARES OF £5 EACH.
JXPERIENCE has fully developed the advantages which
arise from Joint Stock Companies,. being formed to carry
on undertakings requiring an extensive Capital.
A portion of the dealers in Flint Glass, and others, having
met and taken into their consideration the inadequacy of the
supply of Glass by the existing establishments, the great profit
derivable from its manufacture, and the well-kn wn fact, that
although a considerable reduction in the duty s taken place,
the Public have derived nobenefit from it, t article being sup-
plied plied at the same prices as heretofore, ha eeed the present
opportunity a fitting one for the establis nt of a Company to
be called ''THE LIVERPOOL. FLINT GLA S COMPANY."
When the extent of the Export Trade—the evils arising from
the inadequacy of supply, and the high prices before alluded to
(which must bring in the competition of other nations) are con-
sidered the importance and utility of such an establishment will
be readily granted, as well as that it will yield a liberal return
to the Shareholders for their investment.
It is intended that the Company shall consist of 4000 Shares
of £5 each, to be called for at such time as the Directors (to be
chosen by the Proprietors at a General Meeting) shall appoint.
That a limited'number of Shares only shall be allotted in the
first instance, and the remainder shall be retained until the Di-
rectors be appointed, who will issue them as thay may judge
conducive to the best interests of the Company.
That One Shilling per Share be paid on allotment to defray
the expenses of forming the Company.
That the first instalment shall be £1 per Share, and be paid
within fourteen days after the appointment of Directors.
That the remainder of the Calls be made at such times as the
Directors shall think fit on giving one month's previous notice,
and they shall not exceed £1 per Share at any one time.
That every holder of 20 Shares, or upwards, he eligible as a
Director,. his qualification to cease upon disposing of his Shares.
That the holder of 5 Shares be entitled to one vote, 20 Shares
two votes, 50 Shares, or upwards, three votes; each Share-
holder may vote by himself or by his proxy, such proxy being a
Shareholder.
That as soon as 200(1 Shares are subscribed for, the Company
shall be considered as formed, and a Meeting called for the pur-
pose of electing. a Board of Directors, to consist of 5 Share,
holders, possessing not less than 25 Shares each, who shall cdn-
tinue in office one year—one-third retiring each year, who shall
be eligible to be re-elected.
That the Deed of Settlement shall contain every provision
necessary for the efficient management of the Company, and
.
the security of individual Shareholders.
Applications for Shares to be made to Mr. COGLAN," Share-
broker, Exchange-street East, and to Mr. EVANS
