I Specimens of Caswell Sound Marble can be seen at any of the Museums in New Zealand; the Chamber of Commerce, Wellington; or on application to any of the Officers of the Com ;PaLiihtrodnj!lng tbis eligible investment to the notice ot the public, the promoters -63ire to state tliatlho Company's rights comprise the best, most available, extensive, and perhaps most valuable Marble deposits in the known world, at all events in the SouthemHemisphere. This is Sufficiently proved by Caswell Sound Marble securing the first prize at the late Sydney Exhibition against Italian Statuary and other valuable varieties, - They b:bo ' wLh to dwell upon its known certainty and non speculative character, the ultimate.succe.sof thia venture being now well established. Ihe lowest quotation for this Marble is 12s per foot, and wnges up to £5, Larger blocks, are, how ever, much more valuable, some pure White Btatua. y, without flaws, realising as much as • £20,000 sterling in Europe. The ordinary price for a block suitable fora lifo-sizo.huxan "statue being about J*ooo.' IThe present'eost of produc ing this Marblo by manual labor only iB about 2S per cublo loot, f.o.b. These figures msy appear inoredible, but they are.nevertheless absolutely correct. This, taking the cost of production as stated and tbe very lowest wholesale quotation at 12s per;foot,* gives the apparently fabulous minimum rate of 600- per cant, profit.. It is therefore, no visionary matter, as theße are lead ing commercial lines and the values well known, the facilities of production, shioment, ,hiKh quality of produot, giving a vastadvahtageoyer any like property in tho world. We will ~\.o ven ture to predict lhat tho value of the Company b hares will noroase at least 300 per cent, within twelve|months of issue. Referring to consump tion of theße commoditto., it is also enormous. The consumption of Marble, Portland Cement, and Limo, in the Australian Colonies, alone during the last twelve months has been £2,872,600 sterling, and rapidly increasing. Cas well Sound is a commodious and safe harbor for the largest-vessels in all weathers, the works of the Company being situated at tho water's ednc. The Government of this colony has also promised to favourably consider special grants in concessions in aid as soon asthe Com pany ia suooessfully floated. For farther par ticulars re other minerals found at the Sound, copper, coal, gold, &c, also the manufacture of hydraulic cement, lime, &c„ together with soiontiflo, professional, Government, and other reports, with details of the objects and inten tions of the Company, we refer to the Pros pectus, which can be obtained upon application to any of the officers of: the Company or from Company's] Agents, the Bank of New Zealand, Auckland, or at any of ;their branches in his colony and Australia.
