0Paieo from tDe cperat ions of the company.
The following matters, however, are now stated,
70 enable the public TO form an pfoximate opinion
81 the probable profts:-
l. The contemplated sources of profit are chiefly
we following, VIZ: i. The increase in value OF
lands puIpOsey retained by the co npany. 2. Sales
~ lands Tor cash, purchased by the company for
cash u Sales Of lani for cash or on credit on com

ny. g. Rents from coal mines leased to emigrants

growing, the raising OF swine horses &c, permlted
TO wander on the compaDys laads in mid inates.
z. The declaring of dividends wholly depends
upon the policy adopted by he company. II the
object be speedy sales and returns. instead OF large
~ retaining lands Tor increased value, tue ovidends
will Of coarse be smaller, but more rapid.
3. Lands selected and retained from three 10 nve
years have been generally found to increase in va.
hue annually at an average OF from about ~ TO 30
per cent and if particularly well selected, often at
still greater annual increase; this being also wholly
independent of the subsequent location of railroads
canals, &c. in the vicinity of the lands.
4. The sales OF lands here or even elsewhere must
largely depend upon the confidence which this
psny will be able to inspire in the British, German
and other people. And as The company actually
possesses extraordinary advantages and as the lands
win BE- uniformly warranted by the company to the
purchasers, and the titles be vigorously examined by
competent persons, and also will be very generally
warranted TO the company. emgrants will thereby
be saved from all trouble, time, expense and risk,
through the ministry Of the company's well select
ed agentc; and hence the sales are expected TO DO
very large, especially after the companys plans are
extensively known.
8. In conclusion, IL is confidently expected that
the actual dividends, when declared, can scarcely
be less than from Is TO 25 per cent annually, and
that when all matters are in full operation, and the
retained portions Of land are broush, into the mar
fst the dividends will still greatly increase, and e.
Pecialy from those lands which have been retained
And here it + propef TO state that these estma Is
are wholly independent Of all minerals except coal,
and also independent Of all those various other con.

Per cent during some fifteen or twenty years.
