Proposals for Organizing an Association.

ine uoiiC Tue Coust'totioo OF, ana Proposals loE,
founding an Association. We come forward with
the proposition with the fullest confidence that it
is an undertaking which offers perfectly safe In
vestrnent to Capital and broad and unsbackled
field of action to the enterprising Industriast or
Producer. Te establish such an Association as
we propose, about 5000 900 in cash capital will
be required. Ii would seem that this sun. could
be obtained; il there are two hundred persons
who can invest each upon an average thousand
dollars, the amount can be raised. Their Capital
would be perfectly safe, as the lands, edlfces,
locks, &c. of the Association would be pledged to
secure it this kind of property could no, be stolen
or suuandered, like the Capital of Bank or an
Insurance Company and those who invested their
money would be on the Property and take part in
rendering it profitable and productive. 1t will
offer Man release from the envious strife, the
conflicts, the deceptons and uncertainties Of bus
ness; it will offer him an agreeable abode, where
the advantages Of Country and City life can be
combined, and the healthy pursuits of Industry
can be connected with Intellectual and Social en-
joyments, and the cultivation Of the Arts and
Sciences.
If wealthy persons would take part in the estab
Iishment of the proposed Association, it would se
cure to them the incalculable advantages Of At
tractive Industry and Health; they could spend
their summers in it, and would find mode Of life
infinitely superior to that which they now lead
in their isolated Country Seats. Their children
would in addition obtain thorough Education,-
'or System of Industrial and Scientific Education,
infinitely superior to any thing that now exists, will
be established in the Association
As regards location, we would recommend some
point between the Cities of New-York and Philade
oha. A tract of land of thousand acres will be
required and if a location could be obtained at a
favorable point on the beaufa shores Of the Della
ware, we would strongly recommend it.
Horace GREELEY and ALBERT BRISBANE are
appointed to receive proposals for subscriptions to
Stsck. Application can be made to them by let
ter-post pad-or in person. To II. GREELEY,
at the Office of the Tribune; and to A. BRlsBAsE,
1T 76 Leenara-street)
AS the first fact to be ascerained is the amount
&c Cash CAPITAL which can be obtained, those per-
sons who wish to take part in the undertaking are
requested to state what amount Of Stock they can
,akc and pay for in cash. We would particularly
request that persons will not make proposals, un
ess they are perfectly certain that they can meet
hem. One-half Of the amount subscribed for will
oe required in April, and one-half in September.
Persons who take sstficicnt amount of Stock
may reserve to themselves the right of entering The
Association at any future period. BY referring to
the Constitution, it will be seen that eight per cent
interest is guaranteed to those who invest a Cash
Capital.
1t will be asked-What amount of Sock per-
,on must take to obtain admission as member Of
the Association We want 5000, 0,OOO and if none
but those who wish to enter the Association will
lake Stock, then subscription of s 900 will be
necessary.
