Copies of Prospectus and Forms of Application for Shares can be obtained from the Brokers, Provisional Directors, or from any of the Branches of the Bank of New Zealand in thin Colony, until the 15th day of December, ISS9, at which date all applications mmst be in the hands of the Brokers, a lien the lists will positively be closed and shares allotted. Specimens of Caswell Sound Marble can be seen at any of the Museums in New Zealand ; the Chamber of Commerce, Wellington j or on application to any of the officers of the Company. In introducing this eligible investment to the notice of the public, the promoters desire to state that the Comtany's right comprise the beat, most available, extensive, _ and perhaps most valuable Marble deposits in the known world, at all events in the Southern Hemisphere. This is sufficiently proved by Caswell Sound Marble securing the first prize at the late Sydney Exhibition against Italian Statuary and other valuable varieties. They also wish to dwell upon its known certainty and non-speculative character, the ultimate success- of this venture being now well established. The lowest quotation for this Marble is 123 per foot, and ranges up to £5. Larger blocks are, however, "much more valuable, some pure White Statuary,without flaws, realising as much as £20,000 sterling in Europe. The ordinary price for a block suitable for a lifesize hnman statue being about £IOOO. The present cost of producing this Marble by manual labor only is about 2s per cubic foot, f. o.b. These figures may appear incredible, trot they are nevertheless absolutely correct. Thus,taking the cost of production as stated, and the very lowestwholeaalequotation at 12s per foot, gives the apparently fabulous minimum rate of £OO per cent, profit. It is therefore, no visionary matter, a3 these are leading commercial lines and the values well known, the facilities cf production, shipment, high quality of product, giving a vast advantage over any like property in the world. We will also venture to predict that the value of the Company's shares will increase at least 300 per cent, within twelve months of issue. Referring to consumption of these commodities, it is also enormous. The consumption of Marble, Portland Cement, aod Lime, in the Australian Colonies alone during the last twelve months ha 3 been £2,572,600 sterling, and is rapidly-increasing. Caswell Sound is a commodious and safe harbor for the largest vessels in all weathers, the works of the Company being situated at the water's edge. The Government of colony has aUo promised to favorably consider special grants and concessions in aid as soon as the Company is successfully floated. For further particulars re other yninomTg fonnd at the found, copper, coal, gold, &c., also the manufacture of hydraulic oement, lime, &c., together with scientific, professional, Government, and other reports, with details of the objects and intentions of the Company, we refer to the Prospectus, which can be obtained upon application to any of the officers of the Company or from Company's Agents, the Bank of New Zealand, Oamaru, and at any of their branches In this colony and Australia. 800
