Copies of Prospectus, and Forms of application (or shares can he obtained from the Brokers, Provisional Directors, or from of the branches of the Bank of New Eeshnd in this Colony, until the 15th day of December, ISSO, at which date all applications must he in the hands of the Brokers, wnen iho lists will positively be closed and shares allotted. Specimens of Casv/ell Sound Marble can be seen at any o£ the Museums in New Zealand • the Chamber of Commerce. Wellington, or on application to any of the Officers of tho Company. In introducing this eligible investment to the notice of the public, the promoters de--x sire to (state thatihe Company's rights comtese the host, most available, extensive, and wrhaps most valuable Marble deposits in the known world, at all events hi the Southern Hemisphere. This is sufficiently proved by C'aswell Hound Marble securing the first prize at the late Sydney Exhibition R»ninat lialiau Statuary and other valuable varieties. They also wish to dwell upon its known certainty and non-speculative eharae- ' ter, the ultimate success of this venture f beinij now established, The lowest quotaV ' tioiwor this Marble is 12s per 'foot-, and ranges up to £5. Larger blocks are, however 0 , much mors valuable, some pure White Statuary, without flaws, realising as much M £'20,000 staling in Europe. The ordinary price for a block suitable for a life-siz; human statue being about LIOOO. The present cost of producing this Marble by piauual labor only is abopt 2s per cubic foot, f.o.b. These figures may appear incredible, but they are nevertheless absolutely correct. Thus, taking tho cost of production as stated, and the very lowest wholesale quotations at l'2s nsr foot, gives, the anparently fabulous minimum rate of i «500 per cent." profit. It is. tliciefore, no \ ••iisionny inait-cr, as thesuare leading commercial lines and the values well biowa, the facilities of production, shipment, quality of product giving a vast advantage over any like property in the world. We. will also venture to predict that tho value of the Company's shores will increase at least 300 per cent, within twelve months of issue. Referring to consumption of these commodities, it is also enormous, Ihe consumption of Marble, Portland Cement, and Lime in the Australian Colonies alone during tho last twelve months has been £•2,862,000 sterling, a d rapidly increasing, Caswell Sonn* is a commodious and safe harbor for the largest vessels in all weathers, the works of the Company being situated on the water's edge. The Government of this Colony has also promised to favorably consider special grants and concessions in aid as soon as the Company is successfully floated.
