LIVERPOOLJOIN'f STOCK DISTILLERY
COMPANY.
CAPITAL, £400,000.

IT is a well known fact, thaaew, if any branches of manufac-
ture in the United Kingdom have, during the last twenty
years, been so productive as the Distillation of Spirits from
Corn. In proof of this, it may be observed, that,there is no in-
stance for many years past of a failure among Distillers, where
sufficient capital and judgement in the directi of .it had been
employed. Qn the contrary, the profits re zed in all Distil-
leries conducted with adequate means hay een enormous.
The Distilleries existing in this Kino-d i are so few in num-
ber compared with the extent of the ade, that in some dis-
tricts they approach to monopoly. In iverpool there is only
one. In a range of country extending to one hundred miles
from Liverpool there is not another, and why, it may be asked,
is this the case ? It is answered, that in ail the chief Barley Dis-
tricts the quality of the Barley is too good, and consequently
too high priced for the purpose of Distillation; and indepen-
dently of this circumstance, no limited extent of district could,
after supplying the wants of the Malsters, furnish sufficient
quantity of Barley to meet the consumption of even a moderate
sized Distillery. And if it could be procured, the expense of
cat riage to any one given point would so increase its cost as to
prohibit the use of it. And this obserVation applies also equally
to the obtaining of Grain either from Liverpool or any o.her
Port on the English Coast, as its transmission into the interior
would be attended with so much expense as to preclude all
chance of succesful competition on the part of Inland Distille-
ries.

But no such objection applies to Liverpool itself. Supplies
of all kinds of Grain consumed in Distilleries ale there to be
found in abundance at the lowest pi ices. And its local advan-
tages for disposing of refuse, and for selling on the spot and for-
warding inim the country the manufactured article are unequal-
led by any town in the kingdom.
The establishment therefore upon an extended scale of a
second Distillei y in this town is confidently submitted to the
public as a means of legitimate and profitable investment of
Capital. And upon this ground it is proposed to form a Com-
pany to be called " The Liverpool Joint Stock Distillery
Company." with a Capital of £400,000 to be divided in 16,000
shares of £2.5 each.

Upon the appropriation of the Shares a deposit of £1 per
Share will be required; upon the execution of the Deed of
Association a further payment of £4 per Share will be called
for, and at the expiration of six calendar months from that time
that a further payment of per Share will be applied for,
making in the whole a paid-up capital of £lO per Share. It is
not expected that further advance of Capital will be required,
at least, for a considerable period.
At general Meetings each holder of four Shares shall be
entitled to one vote, of ten Shares to two votes, and fur every
additional ten Share one vote; but no Shareholder shall have
more than ten votes in the whole. Votes may be giVen by
written proxy held by a Shareholder.
Written applications for Shares will be received by Messrs.
