By careful computation it has been estimated that the cost of opining up and connecting the Mine with the Government Bailway, i-cludiog all plant, will not exceed £15,000, and that the coal can be shipped free ou board at Wi stport at 8s per ton. _ The cost of this proportv to the Company is £5100, tha whole of which the promoters have agrted frj accept ia piid-up scrip in tas C impany, and In additi.m they bin.i themselrta to take up not leas than £ 1 700 of shares, ih'is showing thtir faith in thu dona fides ot the Mine.
