ORDINARY SHARES, forming part of the Capital of the WELSH IRONWORKS COMPANY (Limited).-Price of Issue-Par, or £50 per Share.-Interest is guaranteed on these 600 Shares for the years 1872 and 1873 at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum, or £5 per Share, payable-£2 10s. per Share on the 30th June, and £2 10s. per Share on the 31st Dec. in each year. The Shares will be allotted to applicants in the proportion of one Preference to two Ordinary Shares. The Preference Shares first rank for Dividend up to 10 per ceat. per annum, then the Ordinary Shares rank for Dividend up to 10 per cent. per annum, after which both classes participate rateably in all surplus profits. The due und punctual payment of the interest for two years is secured by a deposit of the amount with the London and South-Western Bank (Limited), as will appear from the following certificate: "We hereby certify that the sum of £6000 has been deposited with the London and South-Western Bank (Limited), at their Head Office, 7, Fenchuren-street, London, and is now standing in our names for the payment of interest for the years 1872 and 1873, to the holders of the 600 shares of £50 each in the Welsh Ironworks Company, Limited, now offered for subscription.

In the allotment existing shareholders will be preferentially considered, and the shares will be allotted as they are applied for. In the event of no allotment being made to any applicant, the deposit money will be returned." London, Feb. 15, 1572. The following particulars are extracted from the statements published by the company:- 1. The company is formed to acquire, under leases and agreements, and to carry on and develop the following important and well-known Ironworks and Hematite Iron Ore Mines, and the other privileges stated, namely, The Aberdare Rhondda Smelting Furnaces and Ironworks, situate near Aberdare, South Wales; the Pawton Hematite Iron Mines, formerly worked and the ore smelted by the Blaina Ironworks; the Brixham Hermatite Iron Ore Mine; the Smallacombe Hematite Iron Ore Mine; the Ladok Hematite Iron Ore Mine. The coal for the use of the ironworks and the native ironstone is to be supplied to the works at 63. per ton only above the actual cost price. Agreements with two Iron Ore Companies for the supply to the iron works of Hematite Iron Ore. 2. Too much importance cannot be attached to the enor mous demand existing for the supply of Hematite pig iron, for Bessemer steel rails, and other purposes, which is so great that the present Hematite makers have difficulty in executing the orders on hand. The ironworks which the company will acquire for the production of this class of Hematite and other iron are on the Vale of Neath Railway, almost equidistant from the large shipping ports of Swansea and Cardiff, having both broad and narrow gauge rails running into the works, and in the same coal and iron fields as the following well-known ironworks, viz. :—— The Abernant, Messrs. Fothergill and Co.; Cyfarthfa, Messrs. Crawshay; Nantyglo, Nantyglo and Blaina Company; Dowlais, Messrs. Guest and Co.; Rhymney, the Rhymney Iron Company; Tredegar, the Tredegar Company; 6. An agreement has been entered into and carried into effect by the Company, under which the Mines and Works are obtained in consideration of an allotment of the Ordinary Shares of the Company, and the payment of £50,000 in money, the remaining capital of £25,000 being considered more than ample for the business purposes of the Company, 7. Considering these favourable features, the great and improving prospects of the iron trade, and that the total estimated profits amount to about £18,000 per annum (being £32,000 from the Pig and Manufactured Iron and £16,000 from the Iron Ore), a sum equal to 39 per cent. on the entire capital, the Preference Shares, which would but absorb an annual fixed sum of £7500, may be regarded as a safe and desirable investment. They will, as before stated, participate in all divisions of profits rateably with the Ordinary Shares, after payment, first of 10 per cent. on the Preference Shares, and second, of that amount on the Ordinary Shares. N.B.-The Company have recently engaged the services of a first-class manager (formerly with the Messrs. Baird, the celebrated Scotch ironmasters), who is pushing forward the Works vigorously, and he estimates that on the completion of the improvements which he is now making, he will be able to produce a weekly turn out of Iron that will give a yearly profit of over £10,000, while the manager of the Mines estímates returns of ore so soon as the Mines are fully laid open, the works at which are also being rapidly pushed forward, that will give a yearly profit of about £14,000, making together a profit of £51,000 per annum on a capital of £125,000.

The works are most substantially built, and admirably situated for the purpose of carrying on a large and profitable trade in the manufacture of Hematite and other pigs, and consist of four massive stone-built blast furnaces, fitted with the latest improvements for economising gases, blown by a powerful blast-engine, with 52 in. diameter team cylinder, Sft. stroke, with blast cylinder Sft. sin. diameter, length of beam 27ft, with four boilers, Soft. 5in. long, 7ft. 11in. diameter, with necessary air-receiver, hot-air ovens, calcining kilns, and coke ovens: foundry; fitting shops, and fire-brick factory; extensive forge, manager's house, offices, &c. The four blast furnaces are capable of producing about 30,000 tons of pig iron per annum, and the forge of turning out 1000 tons of malleable iron per month, or 12,000 tons per annum. The profits on both classes of iron may, under the arrangements already entered into, be taken at an average of not less than £1 per ton. 4. The Hematite Iron Ore Mines to be acquired, and the further contracts for a supply of Hematite Ore from other mines, are important considerations in the establishment of the company, especially seeing the difficulty experienced by ironmasters at the present time in obtaining regular deliveries of good quality Hematite Ore, and it will be seen, on a perusal of the annexed reports, that an output of about 80,000 tons per annum is calculated upon from the four mines to be acquired, and taking this at the current market value (on which basis the profit on the Pig Iron is reckoned, the average profit will not be less than 4s, per ton. 5. The importance and value of this combination cannot be over-estimated, and the capital of the Company being but £125,000 (viz., £75,000 in 1500 Perpetual 10 per Cent.

Previously to the introduction of this plan it was almost as difficult for those of limited income to buy a good Pianoforte as to BUY A HOUSE; and persons went on gear 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 pianoforte.

TRUST THE STANDARD INVESTMENT CORPORATION, LIMITED. Incorporated under the Companies Acts 1862 and 1867, by which the Liability of the Shareholders is limited to the Amount of their Shares. CAPITAL £250,000, IN 50,000 SHARES (WITH POWER TO INCREASE). OF £5 EACH DEPOSIT ON APPLICATION £1 PER SHARE, AND ON ALLOTMENT £1 PER SHARE. CALLS NOT TO EXCEED £1 per share, NOR TO BE MADE AT INTERvals of less THAN THREE MONTHS. This Company has been formed for the purpose of making investments in wellknown bona jide Home and Foreign Securities, and Government Stocks of a negoti able and transferable character, in such a manner that the shareholders may participate in all those advantages which are peculiar to large capita ists. The special feature of the Company will be the distribution of its capital over a number of sound and paying marketable securities, thus admitting its shareholders into many desirable enterprises to which, individually, they perhaps could not subscribe. The importance of adopting a system of average risk by the mode of investment to be carried out by this Company must be apparent to all, and numbers of investors who might be unwilling to venture their capital in a solitary undertaking, could safely subscribe to this Corporation, where the risk must of necessity be reduced to a minimum, whilst a steady and remunerative return will be secured. To the small as well as the large investor, therefore, this Company offers a peculiarly advantageous opportunity for the employmeut of capital. The great success which has attended the Foreign and Colonial Government Trusts, the Submarine Cables' Trusts, and other companies of a similiar character, upon the method af distributing capital over a number of different securities, shows that the principals which this Company proposes to adopt lead to a very safe and substantial medium of investment. The Company will also receive money from the public, at fixed rates of interest, and for stated periods, either on loan or deposit, and as a means of keeping the street, E.C. surplus funds of the Company constantly employed, it proposes to discount bills o commercial firms of undoubted respectability and standing. The Directors will give their zealous attention to the cultivation of business of a first-class character, and they are confident that the Company from its commencement will yield very satisfactory dividends, and that it will prove a most eligible investment to its shareholders. Subscribers may, in their applications for shares, stipulate for payment of such an amount beyond the calls as they may think desirable, receiving a dividend in proportion thereto, as provided by the Companies' Act 1867. In the event of no allotment being made, the deposit will be returned in full. Should a less number of shares be allotted than are applied for, the deposit will be made available towards the payment due on allotment, and the balance, if any, returned to the applicant.
