I Solicitor* GLAMORGANSHIRE BANKING COMPANY, Neath. I WILLIAM LLEWELLYN, Esq., Ncatb. anb iWtttrral Surbegors* Messrs WILLIAM BROUGH AND SON. THE object of this Company is to erect Works for making and manufacturing Iron, from the Iron Ore JL and Bituminous Coal lying under the Blaengwrach Estate, in the Vale of Neath, Glamorganshire, containing about 800 Acres, abounding in the richest Iron Ore, and about 500 Acres of Bituminous Coal, well adapted to the making and manufacturing of Iron. The property is closely adjoining, and is connected with the Neath Canal, by a Railroad. The distance over the Canal to the Port of Neath is 11 miles, to the Port of Swansea 15 miles; to both, the transit is easy and cheap. The Iron Ore is now, and has been for some time, in the course of profitable working, for the partial supply of the Neath Abbey Iron Works. The beds of Iron Ore, equal to 09 inches, are computed to yield upwards of Twelve Millions of Tons. There are four proved Veins of Bituminous Coal, available by level, the total thickness of which Veins is 15 feet 6 inches; which are computed to yield Four Millions of Tons. Thete are also three other Veins of Bituminous Coal known to be under the Blaengwrach Estate, which have not yet been proved. A quantity of Coal worked from the Bituminous Vein has been coked, and the coke has been made use of in the Gadleys Iron Furnace, under the superintendence of Mr. W. W. Wayne, with the most satisfactory results. There are erected upon the property Thirty-five Cottages for Workmen, Agent's House, Office, Black- smith's and Carpenter's Shops, Storehouses, Stables, &c. &c. The whole, with the farms of Blaencleirch and Sellar, is held under lease, of which 83 years are now unexpired. The reserved rent by the lease for the Bituminous Coal is £50 per annum, and for the Iron Ore also £50 per annum. The royalty or galeage on the Coal is 6d. per ton, on the Iron Ore Is. per ton. There is a long suspense account for royalties on the Iron Ore, not worked, the reserved rent on which has been paid, which advantage will vest in the Company. The Company are offered a most eligible site for the erection of Furnaces, and Mills, with sufficient room for the deposition of slag, and every kind of rubbish, at a nominal rent, and for a term co-existent with the Blaengwrach Lease. The proprietor taking his remuneration for the occupation of the land, by a small Tonnage Rate to be paid him for the conveyance of materials along a Railroad on his estate, laid down at a very considerable expense by the present Lessees. Limestone can be procured from the Dinas Mountain, to wltich there is a communication already open to the public by Tramroad and Canal, and also, from the Ports of Neath and Swansea, to both which places it is brought by Vessels as Ballast. From the calculations of persons of experience in the manufacture of Iron, to whom the situation has been long known, Pig Iron, of the best quality, can be made on this spot, and delivered on board, either at Swansea or Neath, under f 3 per too, thus enablingthe Company to compete with existing establish- ments under any depression of the trade. It is proposed to form a Company with a Capital of £ 100,000 in 2000 Shares of f50 each, for the pur- pose of purchasing the Lease and Erections, the right of working out the reserved rent on the Iron Ore, and for erecting Four Blast Furnaces and Rolling Mills, with other appendages, for the making and manufac. turing of Iron. A provisional arrangement has been made with the Lessees for the purchase of their Interest, at a sum of X9,600. The purchase to be made in the name of Trustees, as the Directors shall think ad- visable. The concerns of the Company are to be under the management of the Directors (of whom three are to be a quorum) and will be regulated by a deed limiting the liability of the Shareholders, as between themselves, to the amount paid up on each Share, and containing all such clauses as Counsel appointed by the Directors shall think advisable. The Directors, previous to the execution of the Deed of Settlement, are to have power to fill up vacancies occasioned by death or retirement, or to add to their number. A deposit of One Pound per Share will be required at the time of application, f4 per Share, on the execution of the Deed of Settlement, and the remainder according to the decision of the Directors. Two Month's notice will be given of any call, which will not at any one time exceed Five Pounds per Share, and from the most exact calculations that can be made, it is confidently expected that not more than ,£70. per Cent. of the amount of the Shares will be required. The peculiar feature of the property here described is, that for a comparatively very moderate outlay it offers advantages, that must ensure a profit equal to that of Works to be purchased or formed at an enormous expense. The Leases, owing to peculiar circumstances,are contracted for at a very small sum. The property, in respect of Iron Ore and Bituminous Coal, is a maiden one, yet the Minerals are won and ready for working. The situation is unrivalled, affording-the most desirable facility and cheapness of communication with the two Ports of Swansea and Neath. The accommodation of Railroads and Canals, are already provided in the most perfect form. A personal inspection of the locality would convince even superficial observers of the many signal advantages assembled in one gpot, to render this one of the most disirable positions in Great Britain for the proposed object;—to thofe who would avail themselves of ocular demonstration of the existence -P86 ^avourable circumstances, previous to embarking in the enterprise, every facility will be g^ftyrded, on application to Mr. W. Rowland, Coal Agent, Glyn Nedd. f^ ^^ares may be made, in writing, (postage paid) to Messrs.

Having had great experience in Parish Affairs, and having a perfect knowledge of Book-keeping, I think I may venture to assert, that should you elect me, I shall bring that kind of knowledge with me that will enable me to perform the duties of Auditor to your satisfaction. I am aware, that in a great measure, the well working of the Poor Law Act will depend upon the efficiency of the Auditor; and considering the heavy responsibility resting with the Guardians (the moral regeneration of the Poor), no one without being well qualified can hope for success. To those that will so far honor me as to make enquiries of me, I trust to furnish with such testimonials, as to ability, as will prove me capable of the trust, and such, as to character, as will prove me worthy of it.
