SOLICITORS.

SECRETARY.
John Charretie, Esq.
This Company has been formed for the purpose of
working several extensive and valuable concessions of coal,
iron ore, and other minerals, situated .
in the Province of
Oviedo, (Principality of the Asturias,) the North of
Spain, which have been acquired under very advantageous
terms.
During the last four years, scientific and practical Mi-
ners have been engaged iu exploring the mineral districts
of the Province ; and the results of their inquiries, com-
bined with those of its own Surveyors and Engineers.
have enabled the Company to secure the possession of an
extent of Mining property, unequalled, even in Spain, for
the richness and variety of its minerals, the facilities of
working them to a profit, and their contiguity to excellent
ports of shipment. _

The concessions abound in argentiferous lead ore, iron,
copper, zinc, quicksilver, and coal; the respective quali-
ties of which have been carefully tested by English che-
mical assayists, and which are proved to be equal to the
best ores and metals in this country.
The qualities of the Coal are shown by one analysis to
be equal to that of the North of England ; and by another
to be free from sulphur, and to resemble the Staffordshire
and Welsh Coal.

The returns to be made from the smelting of the rich
iron ores, (which are found in the vicinity of the coal
mines,) and the manufacture of the iron, may be estimated
from the facts—that the importation of bar iron into
Spain is virtually prohibited by a duty of £l5 per ton,
(whilst pig iron is subject to a duty of 355,)* and that the
selling price of bar iron is £23 10s. As the iron can
be produced at a cost not exceeding that in this coun-
try, and as its enhanced price has necessarily reduced the
consumption of Spain and other colonies to the lowest
point of necessity, a profitable and extensive market for
this essential article is at once insured to the Company.
The ports of shipment selected by the Company are
those of Aviles and Riva de Sella. The former port is
capable of admitting vessels of 300 tons burthen ; whilst
that of Riva de Sella boasts of one of the safest and most
commodious harbours in the North of Spain. The river
Sella, whose embouchure forms the port, can be made
navigable at a comparatively limited cost, for several miles
into the interior, and within a short distance of some of
the Company's most valuable mineral concessions.
From the arrangements which have already been con-
cluded in the Asturias, the most productive operations of
the Company can be immediately proceeded with, so as
to insure an early return upon the capital that may be
placed at the disposal of the Directors.

The Mining Code of Spain is well known to be highly
protective of the rights of foreigners who conform to its
regulations. The property acquired by them can be sold
or bequeathed in the same manner as if they were natu-
ralised subjects ; and in the event of war breaking out
between Spain and the nation to which the miners owe
allegiance, their properties come under the special protec-
tion of the Crown, and are absolutely exempted from en-
croachment or reprisal.
The principality of the Austurias, from its geographi-
cal position and physical conformation, and the moral
character of its inhabitants, has always enjoyed a complete
immunity from the political agitations which have dis-
turbed other parts of the kingdom.
With the view of identifying the inhabitants of Spain
with this national undertaking, one third part of the shares
has, upon the application of influential individuals, been
reserved for distribution in that country.

The affairs of the Company to be superintended by a
Board of Directors, who will hold their meetings in
London.
The constitution of the Company is that of an anony-
mous company (compania anonima), in accordance with
the 276th Article of the Commercial Code. By the 278th
Article, the shareholders are only liable to the extent of
their interest in the capital stock.
Upon the payment of the deposit of a scrip receipt is
granted ; and the payment of the deposit of £3 per share
on the Ist of July, entitles the holder to a share certificate
transferable to bearer. _ _ _

Prospectuses may be obtained, and application for
Shares will be received, at the Solicitors, Messrs. AMORY,
SEWELL, and MOORES, No. 25, Throgmorton-street,
London, and by GEORGE PARSONS, Esq., Share-broker,
Liverpool.

It is stated in the Spani,h newspapers, that the duty
will be immediately increased 2.i per cent.
