Specimens of Caswoll Sound Marble can be Been at any of the Museums in New Zealand; the Chamber of Commerce, Wellington; or on application to aDy of the Officers of tne Com- Pa inintrodi!cing this eligible investment to the notice of the publio; the promoters desire to state that tho Company's rights comprise tha best, most available, extensive) and perhaps most valuable Marble deoositsin the known world, at all events in the SouthernHeanspilere, This la sufficiently proved by Caswell sound Marble securing the first prize at the late Sydney Exhibition against Italian Statuary and other valuable varieties. They a'.eo wish to dwell' upon its known certainty and non speculative oharactar, the ultimate successor this Venture being now well established. The lowest quotation for this Marhle is 12s per root, and ranges Up to iBS, Larger blocks, are, how ever, much more valuable, some pure White SUtuaty, without flaws, realising as much as J320 000 sterling in Europe. The ordinary price for a block suitable for a life-size huian statue being about £1000. (The present cost of produc ing this Marble by manual labor only is about 2s uer cubio foot, f.o.b. These figures may appear incredible, but they are nevertheless absolutely correct. This, taking the cost of production as stated and the very lowest wholesale quotation at 12s per foot, gives the apparently fabulous minimum rate of 500 per cent, profit. It Is therefore, no visionary matter, as these are lead Ing commercial lines and the values well known, the facilities of production, shipment, high quality of product, giving a vast advantage over any like property in the world. We will also ven ture to predict ihat the value of the Company s hares will ncrcase at least 300 per cent, within twelve|months of iSßue. Referring to consump tion of these commodities, it is also enormous. The consumption of Marble, Portland Cement, and Lime, in the Australian Colonies, alone during the last twelve months has been £2 872,000 Bterling, and rapidly increasing. Cas well Sound is a commodious and safe harbor tor the largest vessels In all weathers, the works of the Company being situated at the water's edge. ■ The Government of this colony has also promised to favourably consider special grants in concessions in aid aa soon as the Com pany is successfully floated.
