Copies of Prospectus and'forms oE Appli cation for Shares can be obtained from the Brokers, Provisional Directors, or from any of the Branches of the Bank of New Zealand in this Colony, until the 15th day of December, 1880, at which date all applications must be in ihe hands of the Brokers, when the list will positively be closed and shares allotted. Specimens of Caswell Sound Marble can be seen at any of tkc Museums in New Zealand; the Chamber of Commerce, Wellington; or on application to any of the Officers of the Com pany. In introducing this eligible investment to the notice of the public, ihe promoters desire to state that the Company's rights comprise the beßt, most available, extensive, and perhaps most valuable Marble deaositsin the known world, at ail events in the SouthernHenjisphera. This ia sufficiently proved by Caswoll sound Marble securing the first prize at the late Sydney Exhibition against Italian Statuary and other valuable varieties. They a;co wi-h to dwell upon its known certainty and non speculativo character, the ultimate sucoo.sof this venture being now well established. The lowest quotation for this MarWe is 12s per foot, and ranges up to £5, Larger blocks, aro, how ever, much more valuable, some pure White Statuaiy, without flaws, realising as much as £20,000 sterling in Europe. The ordinary price for a block suitable for a life-size liv lan statue being about £1000. [The present cost of produc ing thH Marble by manual labor only is about 2s per cubio root, 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 12a 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 liiies and the values wellknown, the facilities of production, shipment, high quality of product, giving a vastadvantageover any like property in the world. We will also ven ture to predict that the valae of the Company's hares will ncrease at least 300 per cent, within twelvejmonths of issue. 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 £2 872,600 Bterling, and rapidly increasing. Cas well Sound is a commodious and safe harbor lor 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 as soon as the Com pany is successfully floated. ' For farther par ticulars re other minerals found at the Sound, copper, coal, gold. Sec, also the manufacture of hydraulic cement, lim", &c, together with scientific, professional, Government, and otter 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 Oompany'sj Agents, the Bank of New Zealand, Auckland, or at any of ;their branches in his solony and Australia.
