PROSPECTUS Of the Newport Original Building and Investment Society, On Mr. J. R. Improved System. TKUSTKES Aaron CrosfieJd, Esq. j Thomos Hawkins, Esq. Edward Dowling, Esq. J Richard Mullock,Esq. BANKEKS: TheM mouth and G lamorgan Banking Company SECRETARY JOHN PIIILLPOITS, Esq. It is expedient to afford encouragement and protection to such Societies."—Preamble to 6 and 7 WM. 4, c. 32. IN the following Piospectus, it is intended to give a short and B- practical view of the principles and mode of opeia ion of Building Societies, on the above system, as it is believed that many persons who would be capable and desirous of participat- ing in their benefits, are, for want of information on the subject, deterred from joining them, in consequcnce of not fully under- standing their nature, and the sources of profit which arise and accrue to the Members. A Building and Investment Society is a Joint Stock Company, for the accumulation of capital, by small periodical payments and for the investment of that capital, in such a manner as to enable the Members to become the Owners of Freehold and Leasehold Property, without experiencing inconvenience from the puichase. This object is effected by each Member of this Society paying towards its capital a ceriain sum, viz.:—Ten hillings per month for thirteen ens, when, if the number of Members amount to fifty, such payments, with the profits rea- lized upon the investment, will, aecoidingto time, amount to a sum averaging from .[60 to £120 per Share; and by its bein agreed, that, as the monthly payments accumulate, they shall be advanced, by way of Mortgage, to those Members desirous of purchasing property, who will receive their Shares to effect that object in the proportions, and according to the following Table :— In the 1st Year, 5 Shares to be advanced at £60 each, £300 »> 2nd „ 5 61" 305 3rd „ 5 62 310 >» 4th „ 5 63 „ 315 ,,5th „ 4 „ 70 280 » 6th.. 4 74 226 2!! f 78 3,2 8th » 4 „ 82 „ 328 •> ,9lt' 3 87 „ 261 "3 „ 92 276 » .ll.h ».3 99 „ 297 o 108 » 324 '» 1Jlh »» 2 „ ]20 240 50 £3 844 Thus leaving a Balance in hand. 5(j t £ 3,9000 It wjl] be seen that those Members who receive their Shares, as above, are to invest the monev in the purchase of Freehold or Leasehold Property, and give a Mortgage upon il to the Society, as a security for the advance made but thrre is no interference hv the Society with respect to the management and enjoyment of the property, the Rents of which are received by the Mem- bers, who theieout pay their Monthly Subscriptions, and so con- tinue for 13 years, the period at which the Society terminates, when the Mortgage Securities are given up, and the iroperty has no longer any charge upon it. The duration of the Society whose Shares are fixed upon the above principles, is 13 yea's; and as the Subscription is Ten Shillings a Month, £6 a-year, or £78 in the 13 yeais, it follows that the Capital can be advauced to the Members as above, with- out loss or risk to the Society. In considering this sffbjecf, it must be recollected also, that the rapid increase of the Premi- ums on the deferred Shares, atises from the Capital of the So- ciety being invested, in accordance with the terms, and at the times before set forth; which, with the facilities affoided by Hanking accommodation, in allowing interest on the deposits placed in their hands, and the minor profits arising from small fines for breaches of regulation, will realize a surplus capital for payment of the expenses of the Society and its contingencies. The advantages of joining such a Society are numerous, and will doubtless be obvious to any intelligent person, al ter the above explanation; but to illustrate the principles and position more clearly, the following propositions aie given:- Suppose a person to occupy a house at the yearly rent The price at which such a propetty could be purchased, would probably be abont Alter payment of the rent for 13 years, the tenant will have paid to the landlord more than the above price of the promises but although he has at that time paid that amount, he will be no nearer having the ownership of the house than he was the fiist day he entered it. Had the landlord agreed to sell the tenant the house for £120. and instead of rent, to accept the payment by instalments towards the principal and interest, it is clear that in a few years he would become the ab- solute owner of the pioperty, and that by merely paying a sum equal to his rent at the usual times such was payable. Thus a person may become possessed of either Freehold or Leasehold Property, without feeling any burthen or inconvenience in the purchase. This proposition, and others of a similar nature, can be fully carried out by means of this Society. Again, suppose a person borrowed £00 on Mottgage of a pro- perty at 5 per cent., it would, at £6ye annum, take 14 yeais andseventy.fourdayi to pay the principal and interest, which would amount 4s. 2d. I' a person so situated were a subscriber for one Share-in this Society, he would receive that amount DO Moitgage, and by payment of his Monthly Subscrip- tion of Ten Shillings, or £ 6 per annum, he would red<ein his property in thirteen years, with the sura or £ 7S only thus effecting a saving in time of one year and seventy-four days, and in money, £7. 4s. 2d. Again, suppose a person, for an Investment, pnid into a Sav. ings' bank the sum of Ten Shillings per Month, or £ (S per an- num, it would amount, with interest at :1 percent., in 13 years, to the sum but, by becoming a Member of this Society, he may, with the same payments, in the same time, realize £ 120. •Thus, by the investment of his savings in this Society, a higher rate of interest or premium, amounting to about at the ter mination of this Society, is obtained. JIfustrations of this kind might he multiplied to a greater extent; hut it is conceived the foregoing are a sufficient explanation of the principles of the Socety. i he easy and grad ial mannet by which incumbrances on pro- perty may, by the plans of the Society, be paid off, will not escape the attention of thosa who have already Mortgaged their property from the advantages afforded by which, they will avoid the great loss which occurs by a forced sale or foreclosure of the Mortgage, arising from unforeseen accidents, ill-feeling, ptejudi e, or avarice. After the preceding Statement, it is only necessary to add, that the affairs of the Society will be managed and conducted by a Committee of its Members, on the most approved rules de- nved from practical experience of the successful operation of other societies and the funds and property will be invested in the names of the Trustees, whose respectability is a sufficient guarantee of perfect security, and will ensure ail the purposes of so beneficial an institution All deeds are to be deposited "ith the Bankers and the Treasurer and other officers filling a situation of tlosl, may be required to give Security, pursuant to Act 10, Geo. 4, c. 56, s. 11; and the Society will be entitled to the benefit of the General Provisions of the Acts of Parliament relating to Friendly Societies. the above statement, it is obvious that a society, based upon these principles, offers advantages not attainable by those societies which propose to fix all their shares but which in reality, is merely a nominal sum, reduced by discount and premium to sums much below those set out in the above table. In conclusion, it should be observed fny number of shares may be taken and if any member's means of saving money sufficient to pay his subscription fail, he can either transler his Share or Shares, or withdraw his money, together with a fair proportion of the profits of the Socicly. For the purposes be- fore-mentioned, and as a provision for old age, or endowment for families, this Society holds out advantages of a lentficial nature, much superior to those sought by Life Assurance, and unattainable by other means. ) he Working Classes are therefore solicited, now that labour is high in demand, and good wages given in return, to forthwith become Members of this Society, and invest their saviogs therein which, by prudence and perseverance, will, hereafter, secure them a moderate independence. Shares may be taken, and any information obtained on appli- cation to the SECRETARY, 23, Commercial-street, Newport.

NEWPORT TOWN HALL, MONDAY, DECEMBER 8. Present—Joseph Latch (Mayor), Thomas Hughes, and Edward Dowling, Esqrs. CHARGE OF STEALING A COW. William Smith, Charles Williams, Jacob Clark, and John Brittan, butchers, were charged with having stolen a cow, the property of John Price, milkman, residing at Pillgwenlly. It appeared from the evidence of Price, that he was possessed of four cows a few weeks since, one of which he sold to the prisoner, Charles Williams, for 16. 10s. agreeing with him and another man present at the same time, whom he believed to be Smith, that the cow should remain in the field for a day or two, till convenient to remove her. Price was particular in pointing out the cow he sold to Williams, describing her as an old cow, with a short, broktn horn, The money was paid by Williatns.-Brittan, one of the prisoners, was here dis- charged from custody, and placed in the witness-box, when he stated that last Wednesday morning, he was sent by Clark and Smith to the Held rented by Price, of Mr. Edwards, oppo- site to the Bull Inn, at the top of Stow Hill, for a red cow, with long horns and white face. He went to the field, and while bringing away the cow so described, a little lad told him he did not think Price had sold that cow-it was the one with the short or broken horn. He therefore brought away the broken-horn cow, and placed her in the slaughter-house used bv Smith and Clark. About three o'clock the same after- noon, Smith came to the slaughter-house and told witness that he had brought the wrong cow—he should have brought the long-horn red cow, with the white face. He took back the cow to the field and broughtthe other-the one first described to liim. Price soon missed his cow, which was the best he had; and saw that the one he had sold was still in the field. He thereupon went in search of her, and found the carcase, partly skinned, hanging up in Smith's slaughter- house- Smith and Clark then dressing her. This cow was in calf-the old broken-horn cow was not. Price admitted, that when he was bargaining for her with Williams, either he or Smith said the cow was in calf; but they told him she was not. When Price found his missing cow, the prisoner Smith said, 11 Here is your cow. -A witness, called Evan David Rees, at an adjourned hearing of the case, in the evening of Monday, stated that Price had shewn him the cow with the broken horn, and hoped if he knew any body who wished to bny such an animal, he would recommend her. He afterwards saw Williams driving a cow along the road, and asked if he wanted to buy another. He said he did, and they went together to see the broken horn cow which Price wanted to sell. This witness described mi- nutely the marks, size, &c., of this cow, and stated the differ ence betwixt her and the hide of another now produced (the animal slaughtered). He stated that Williams looked at the old cow, and at no other—that Price did not wish to sell any other, and had spoken of no other. This was the only cow they spoke about in the field, and witness sent Williams to Price to deal for the cow. He eaw him afterwards in the street,land Willi; ins is-.iid he had bought the cow of Price. Had both cows been in calf, the old cow would not have been worth as much as the one slaughtered, by f4.-Some little difference arose between Mr. JohnPhillpotts,who defended the prisoners, and the Bench, Mr. Phillpotts, previously to the adjournment of the case in the morning, began his address to the Bench on behalf of the prisoners but was cut short by the Mayor, who stated that the magistrates had heard quite enough, and a great deal too much. Mr. Phillpotts still de- sired to proceed, but Mr. Hughes said the magistrates had a discretionary power, and they should not allow further argu- ment.— Mr. Dowling said the Bench clearly had a right to check any address to the Bench on behalf of tho prisoners, until the case for the prosecution was closed. There was an- other witness to examine in the evening, and. consequently, the arguments of the learned gentleman might be deferred until after that examination.—Mr. John Phillpotts said he certainly thought he had been treated with some discourtesy by the Bench.—The Mayor Sir, you abuse the permission given you to appear for the prisoners, and may not be allowed to do so in future.—At the commencement of the examination in the evening, Mr. Phillpotts was proceeding to put some questions to the witness Rees on his chief examination, when the Mayor suddenly rose and sa;d—I'll put you right, Mr. Phillpotts, as to your duty. Ycu have no power to put any questions to the witness. We interdict it.—Mr. Phillpotts You do? Very well. That I am to understand from you. am I.-Mayor: Yes, decidedly.—Mr. Phillpotts: Mr. Dowling, do you concur in tliit You shall not speak.—Mr. Phillpotts Mr. Dowling, I appeal to you-do you concur in the remark just made by the Mayor? — Mr- Dowling said, the Mayor was the presiding oflicer and organ of the Court, and Mr. Phillpotts would do well to take his dictllm.-The cross examination of Rees was then begun by Williams, and Mr. Phillpotts tiuggested:to him what questions to put. The cross-examination went on, but Williams did not shake Rees's testimony. Rees said the slaughtered cow might be worth, without calf. "-7, and the old red cow was worth about £ 6.—The prisoners, on being individually asked if they had any explanation or remark to make to the Court, and be- ing duly cautioned, the two prisoners, Smith and Williams, said they had witne,ses to examine but Clark stated that Smith told him Williams knew where to buy a cow, and if he would advance her price, he should have half of her. Smith said afterwards that the purchase was effected on these terms. Clark told him, that if Williams thought proper to sell his half, he (Clark) would buy it. Clark then went to the field with Smith to look at the cow, and Smith shewed him the cow which they afterwards slaughtered .Subsequently saw Williams, and asked him what he would take for his part of the cow. Bought his half of the beast, and gave him 6s. over the amount. This was all he had to say.-Williams then called James Car- ter, who said he was a dealer. On the 6th of November, he met Mr. Price, who said he had a cow to sell, and he wanted to buy one either in calf or heavy with ralf. Told Price he had one, who said he had a fat cow up in his field, which he would exchange. Saw her next morning—she appeared a barren, and he should have bought her to knock down. Price said the cow was worth X7, and he would givef3 with her for his (Carter's) cow. She was the only cow in the field fit for killing, ljlfere was no calf in her to hurt her to kill. Consi- dered this cow was worth six guineas. The old broken-horn cow might be worth f4, but he wouldn't give any such money for ltei-Micbael Jones, butcher, stated that Rees. a previ- ous witness, who had been desired by Price to seek a buyer for one of his cows, took him and Williams to see the cow and they examined the long-horned cow-not the broken- horned and it was her they handled and talked of, and of no other.—Ash Chiswell stated that he mwtit to Price's field on I the 20th of November, with Williams And Smith, and saw four cattle. Williams pointed out the red, long-horned cow to him as the one tie intended buying. Williams said he would try to buy her of Price for S6. 7s. They only examined the red cow. He thought that the old broken-horned cow was worth btitf3, and the long horned £ 6.—Mr. Parry, butcher, said he would not give X6. for the beast he had seen in the slaughter house. — Mr- James Duckham. butcher, said he would not give more ) than £ 6. 10s. for the cow. She was worth nothing but "for to send off to London to chop up for earsingers If she was in calf, she might be worth S9.-Nir. Collett, butcher, had seen the cow alive, and should value her from six guinea? to £ 6. 10s. The broken-horned cow would be dear at £ 4. He thought f6 a great price for the cow, now that she was dead. She wouldn't be worth a farthing more for killing, be- ing in calf: wouldn't give more than £6 for her in calf. She did not appear to be in calf.-William Carter, butcher, had examined the red cow with his uncle, on the 6th or 7th Nov., and he did not think her worth more than [5. He examined the cow, but he found no indication of a calf.-The magis- trates here retired to consult, and after half ati-liour's absence, they rerurned to the bench, and Mr. Hughes then acquitted Jacob Clark, and committed Smith and Williams to take their trial. Bail was afterwards accepted.—The case excited considerable interest in, town, the hall and passage being crowded to excess throughout the examination.—We uuder- stand that Mr. Dowling dissented from the decision in this case. There were two or three other cases heard, of trifling im- portance, for which we have no room. [With reference to the remarks of the Bench in respect to Mr. Phillpotts, it must be borne in mind, that in cases of lar- ceny or felony, the magistrates have the power to refuse any attorney pleading; though in cases where they have a sum- mary jurisdiction, an attorney has a right to appear.] THURSDAY.

John Abraham, the person who broke into the town-hall, on the 29th ult., was brought up in custody, and committed to- take his trial at the ensuing Quarter Sessions, to be held in Cardiff—The appearance of the prisoner has very much im- proved since he has been in custody, reflecting credit on the discipline of the governor.

Sait, Arnott, and Marks, had written a letter to the mayor respecting the condition of the roof of the old workhouse, which is in a most dangerous and dilapidated state he (Mr. B.,) wished to know if anything had been done in the matter.— The Mayor said the letter had been received, and would be laid before the town council next meeting, when, no doubt, prompt measures would be taken to remedy the cause of complaint. Several applications for summonses were made, and granted; and the Court rose at a much earlier hour than it has for some time. THURSDAY. Present—R. Reece, F.S.A., (Mayor), and Whitlock Nicholl, Esq.

LATE OUTRAGE NEAR OSWESTRY.
LATE OUTRAGE NEAR OSWESTRY. OSWESTRY, DEC. 3.—It will be recollected that an old wo- man, named Susannah Rider (supposed to be a maniac), was taken into custody upon a charge of attempting to murder her own daughter, a delicate yeung woman, who was found in the cottage apparently dead, and mangled in a peculiar manner, which admitted of no description. The poor sufferer, who was placed under medical treatment, had so far recovered as to en- able her to give evidence against her wretched mother. The prisoner (Sasinoah Rider) having been placed at the bar, the daughter was led into the room, and accommodated with a chair near the magistrates' table. Her deposition was to the fol- lowing effect — My name is Elizabeth Rider; I live at Dyffryd, in the parish of Henneily, and am a single woman. I was at home on Friday morning, the 14th of November. I locked the door, as my mo- ther was for going out, and I could not m«nagexher. My mo- ther's name is Susannah Rider. She i* a widow. There was no one elte in the boute. My brother was at his woik, a short dis- tance cff. When I took the key out of the lock, my mother be. gan at me. She pulled off my cap, tore off my hair, and put her hand on my thloaland tlied to choke me. She did not then get me down. She then picked up the broom hook and struck at ;,1. me. I laid hold of and she pushed me across the room againstj^ a "stean" (tub) of water, into which I fell. Befoie I could get up, she got the treacle bottle and pun'd" (punched) me about the head. It was an earthen bottle, and broke. llhea became very faint. She pushed me towards the grate, and tak- ing the kettle off the fire, poured the scalding water down my back. The pain gave me strength, and I managed to turn away the spout of ihe tea-kettle, or else she would have poured all the water over me. She next got the maneker (a wooden instrument for crushing potatoes), and began to "pun" (punch) me on the head. She shnked that away, and took up the rolling-pin, with which she began to best me about the head and face till she thcught I was almost gone. I became almost insensible, but I recollect my mother kept working at me, though I was nearly choked with the blood which returned into my mouth from the wound. on my head and face. Mr. Aubrey asked if she had any recollection of being struck wi:h a bill hook ? The witness replied-I suppose that after having beaten ma with the rolling-pin, she took up the bill-hook but by that time 1 was quite insensible. When I came to a httle, I (ouod my mother was lugging me along the floor towards the pantry. She had hold of my arms, my bead resting against her stomach. When she got me into the pantiy, I was insensible. Seeing that I was not dead, she took up an old shoe, which had nails in it, and began beating me about the head. I remember her saying, "011 but you are a tough one; I II finisti you yet." 1 had no po«'er; but I had my senses, so as to know everything that hap. pened. I saw Ihat she went into the outer room, and having fetched the broom, she turned up my clothes, and began to "pun" (punch) me with the" stail" (handle) about my lege and thighs, See. The prisoner, who seemed peifectly composed, had nothing to IllY, She was «oniniitt«d for trial at the out assizes.
