OST PERSONS ARE FAMILIAR with

of the Pianoforte Makers, by which anyone who Hires an Instrument and pays the Ire for that period, becomes the ABSOLUTE OWNER OF THE PIANOFORTE. Previously to the introduction of this plan it was almost us difficult for those of limited income to buy a good Pianoforte as to BUY A HOUSE; and persons went on year after year, paying for the Hire of an Instrument, and expended as much money as would have bought the Pianoforte several times over.

What will hold good for Pianofortes will hold good for HOUSES; and there are many who would no doubt AVAIL THEMSELVES OF THE OPPORTUNITY, if it was afforded them, of becoming

THE OWNER OF A HOUSE

in the same way as they have already become the owner of their planoforte. THE DIRECTORS

Interest will accrue on the derosit and payment on allotment, and on each subsequent
instannent from the date of payment thereof, at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum.
The interest will be payable half-yearly, on 1st January and 1st July in each year, at the
London Banker of the Company, Messrs. Robarts, Lubbock, and Co., 15, Lombard-street,
E.C., London. The first payment of interest will take place on 1st July, 1872.

Two-thirds of the shares now offered for subscription will be allotted to subscribers desiring to pay up the whole of the instalments on allotment, in which case interest, at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum, will run from that date on the whole 201. per share, oqual to 5. 148. 3d. per cent. per annum on the amount invested.

[blocks in formation]

The object of the extension is to connect by an unbroken narrow gauge the two great systems of the Midland Railway and London and South-Western Railway, which, on reference to the accompanying map, it will be seen will be effected by the extension to Bath of the present line of the Somerset and Dorset Railway, thus permitting of through traffic, without change of carriage between the North, and South and West of England, via the Midland Railway.

The existing line of the Somerset and Dorset Railway, opened and in work, is 66 mes in length, and the extension line to Bath will be about 26 miles, making a total, when completed, of 9: miles. By the Act of Parliament authorising the extension, the following special advantages are offered to the extension shareholders.

By the provisions of uch Act the line already existing is charged with the payment, not only of its own working expenses, but also of the working expenses of the extension line, and (together with the extension railway) with an annual charge of 17,600.

The total gross receipts of the extension line are therefore available (subject to the above)-without any deduction for working expenses-for payment of the dividend at 5 per cent. per annum to the extension shareholders, after the payment of interest on the extension debentures, limited to 60007. per annum.

The great advantages of this arrangement will be seen on reference to the accompany ing table of estimated traffic on completion of the extension line, furnished by the general manager, whose great experience on the line forms a valuable data for the directors and the company. He estimates the net income (after payment of working expenses on both the existing and the extension lines), at ...... From which has to be deducted the charges above-mentioned-viz. 17,0007. and 60007.-total

Leaving

£61,226

23.000

[ocr errors]

on which the extension shares now for subscription have a first preferential charge, to py which would require only 18,000l. per annum, leaving a surplus of upwards of 2IGË beyond the amount required, and in effect thus creating a first-class preferential security of a very high order.

Scrip Certificates will be issued in exchange for the bankers' receipts, until the instal ments are fully paid up, when the shares will be registered into the name of each appicant free of all charges, and the Share Certificates of the Company forwarded.

The Company's Acts of Parliament, and also the declaration of interest trust, may be seen at the offices of the solicitor of the Company, William Toogood, Esq., 16, Parlament street, London.

Applications, accompanied by the payment of 27. on each share applied for, w be received on the form enclosed herewith which must be filled up and forwarded to the Company's Bankers, Messrs. Robarts, Lubbock, and Co., 15, Lombard-street, E.C.. London; to Stuckey's Banking Company, Glastonbury, and their branches; to Messrs. Walker and Lumsden, stock brokers, 9, Old Broad-street, E.C.. London; or to the Secretary, Robert A. Rend, Esq., at the Company's Offices, 16, Parliament-street, Westminster, of whom prospectuses may be had.

AND

The accompanying map shows the course of the Somerset and Dorset line and its Extension (coloured green), and its connections with the Midland Railway at its southern terminus at Batli, and also with the London and South-Western Railway.

By arrangements with the Midland Company, for the purpose of the interchange of traffic with that Company, powers have been conceded to this Company to run over a part of the Midland Railway, and to use the station of that Company at Bath.

By arrangements with the London and South-Western Company, traffic will be interchanged with that Company's Railway at the existing junctions at Templecombe and Wimborne

This line completes the communication, on unbroken narrow gauge, between the Northern, North-Western, and Midland Counties, and the whole of the south and west of England, and between the cities of Bristol and Bath and London, and the narrow gauge railways south of the Thames,

It will also afford the shortest and most direct access, on unbroken narrow gauge, from the Midland Railway, and from Bristol and Bath, to Portsmouth, Southampton, Bournemouth, Poole, and Weymouth; and to Sherborne, Yeovil, Axminster, Honiton, Sidmouth, Exmouth, Exe er. North Devon, Plymouth, and Devonport; and by steamers from Southampton to Jersey, Guernsey, and France,

The great inconvenience, delay, and loss resulting from the break of gauge now occurring at Bristol will be avoided by this route, and passen.ers and goods will be able to proceed to their destination without change of conveyance, and at through rates and fares.

A large and remunerative traffic cannot fail to result from these advantages. Under an agreement in perpetuity, sanctioned by Parliament, between the London and South-Western Railway Company and this Company, faci ities for interchange of traffic, through rates and fares, and other important traffic arrangements, are already secured; the importance of the line to the systeins of the London and South-Western and Midland Companies being very great. The directors of the London and South-Western Railway Company have, in the report submitted at their last half-yearly meeting, called the attention of the shareholders in that company to the importance of this line.

The Extension Line passes through a district rich in valuable limestone, bath, freestone, and in iron ore, for the smelting of which large works have for some years been in successful operation in the neighbourhood; it also passes through the centre of the Somersetshire coalfield at Radstock, and will convey that coal direct from the pits, and without break of gauge, to Bath, with a population of 60,000, and to the towns and districts of the London and South-Western Railway, extending from Basingstoke, Salisbury, and Portsmouth on the south-east, to Exeter on the west, including a population exceeding 500,000, for which this coalfield is the nearest and cheapest source of supply.

Upwards of half a million tons a year are at present raised, for which there is now but one outlet by railway, which is on the broad gauge, and the output steadily increases. The construction of this line will lead to a still more rapid development of its resources, which are estimated to amount to 1200 million tons of coal.

The Company have, under an agreement which is scheduled to and confirmed by the Act authorising the line, purchased, on advantageous terms, the Somersetshire Coal Tramway, over which upwards of 100,000 tons a year are at present carried, which will con nect the line with all the principal pits in and near Radstock, the produce of which can thus be brought directly on to the railway.

An agreement has been entered into with Messrs Thomas and Charles Walker, contractors, of Westminster, for the purchase of the land and the construction of the extension line. Arrangements have also been made for the purchase of the Somerset Coal Tramway, and of additional rolling stock, &c., the whole being within the limits of the authorised capital and borrowing powers of the company.

The contractors are under engagement to complete the line not later than the end of next year, and have engaged to pay interest on the shares now offered for subscription, at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum during construction, to ensure which 30,000. Consols have been invested, and are now standing in accordance with the before-mentioned certificate, in the joint names of the Right Honourable Lord Robert Montagu, M.P., and John Alexander Mainley Cope, Esq., 26, Great George-street, Westminster (Messrs. Cope, Ross and Pearson, solicitors, who have consented to act as trustees, and who will apply the same in due payment of the interest upon the days appointed for the payment thereof.

By the favourable conditions inade, under which the working expenses of the extension line will be defrayed by the line already established, it will be seen that a gross receipt of 24,0. 07. per annum only is required to meet the payment of 5 per cent. per annum to the extension debenture and share holders, equal to only 187. per mile per week on the ex tension line, being about one third of the average receipts of the railways of the United Kingdom, which reach upwards of 521. per mile per week.

The average value of Five per Cent. Preference Stocks of the Midland, South-Western, and other leading lines, ranges from 1127. to 114, and at the price at which the well secured extension shares are now offered--viz., 177. 10. per share, equal to $77. 108, per 1007, stock, it will be seen how large a margin exists for increase in their value and the sound and ellgible character of the security.-By order,
