By careful computation it has been estimated that the cost of opsning up and connecting the Mine with tiie Government Bailway, including all plant, wili not exceed £L5,C00, and that the coal can be 6hipped free on board at Wf stport at 8s per ton. The cost of this property to the Company ia £5100, the whole of which the promoteis liave agreed to accept in p-iid-up scrip in the C mpauy, and in. addition they bind themselves to take up not leas than £ 1 700 of shares, thus showing their faith in tho bona fides of the Mine. The terms of the Ic&se wil compel the Company ta have the Mine in working order early in 187S, so that [shareholders mvp r.ly on hiving returns far their money wi-hia tweive months. j^rcspeciuses and Forms of Application for Shares may be oblained, and a sample of the coal seen, together with a plan of the property at the office of A.
