ing perfectly satisfied with the results before their
money IS paid over. This is sufficient proof 10 our
mind that the whole thing is, and must be, a GER
tainty, and will undoubtedly pay large profits to
tn tockhoders. 1t will be noticed that the shares
are one thousand dollars EACH fifteen per cent. of
which has to be deposited at time of subscribing
and only ten per cent. more upon the completion
and transfer Of the works to the company. Capi-
talists would do well to examine into this matter
before investing elsewhere, also those of limited
means, as we know of no other investment that
promises such large returns. The company, as it
nov stands, is composed of reliable, energetic
business men, and who intend by strict attention
and an economcals of its affairs, to
make it, IN truth, the best stock in the South
