The Ketchau (Pahang) Corporation, Limited, has bean fonned to acquire the very taluable minin and other rights granted by Concession direct from H.H. the Sultan of Pahang over the entire district of Ketchau, in the State of Pahang, on the eastern side of the Malay Peninsula to exploit, develope, and work the mines and minerals upon the property to teke on lease, grant, or license any other properties in the State of Pahang, and to carry on the business of planting, and to farm, improve, and cultivate the surface of the lands of the Corporation from time to time, and further to sell, lease, or otherwie dispose of portions of the property to other companies or in- dividuals. The Concession is for 55 years, and is in favour of Syed Junied bin Omar al-Junied and Syed Mahomed bin Ahmed al-Sagoff, both of Singapore. The rights which it grants extend over an area of about 200 square miles, and the estate i8 bounded 011 two sides by rivers, one of which (the Pahang river, which is the principal river of the Malay Peninsula) is navigable from its mouth by steamers, so that the district is in water communication with any port in the world, and particularly is easily accessible from Singapore. The estate is stated to contain numerous and extensive lodes of gold. silver and tin' The surface of the property consists of rich agricul- tural land, capable of growing tea, coffee, tapioca, tobacco, rattan, and other tropical products. Almost the whole of the estate is covered with timber, much of which is available for mining, building and fuel purposes in fact, the supplies in this respect may be considered unlimited. The Concessicn grants the use of aU rivers and streams within the districts of Ketchau and its neigl1. bourhood,and all other waters ofTivers and streams,for the'purposes of the said minin operations,free from all taxes or charges, and also the right to use all the wood for fuel, and all timber, stone, and clay earth required for building, completing, and main- taining the works of the Company. The whole is subject to a royalty of 10 per cent. upon the produce, payable to the Sultan of Pahang. The climate of the country is stated to be suitable for Europeans (similar, in fact. to that of Singapore). The mineral resources of Pahang are as yet only in the commencement of proper development. In almost every part cf the State, and particularly in the districts I adjoining Ketchau. gold and tin have been found to exist. Mr Skinner, in "The Eastern Geography," says:—"The chief importance of Pahang lies in its mineral wealth, its reputation for old and tin com. bined being unrivalled, both for the metals' widespread yield, their quantity, and their fineness." Upon the Ketchau property gold mining has been carried on for some 600 years, the work having been done chiefly by the Chinese and Siamese. Some of the old workings are 400 feet deep by 300 feet long and 400 feet wide, proving the great depth of the lodes on the property. The goid-bearmg reefs cross the country from north-east to south-west, the lodes being well defined and yielding up to 2 ozs. of gold to the ton. The ore is easily treated, so that the working should not cost more than 10s per ton of quartz crushed and estimating the produce of the quartz at only an average of half an ounce to the ton, a 30.stamp mill would produce a net revenue to the Company for working the gold alone of £22,500 per annum, or about 15 per cent. upon the capital of the Company. Alluvial gold is also met with over a great portion of the estate, which could be worked on tribute by the natives at considerable additional profit to the Company. In addition to the gold, however, the deposits of tin existing upon the property should be worked on tribute, anù it is estimated that from this source and the cultivation of the surface lands, including the sale of wood, rattan, Ac., a large annual profir income would be made. The tin is stated to exist both in lode and stream, and the latter ean be separatea with very simple appliances constructed on the spot, and it is believed that such quantities of this are immediately available that a considerable income is derivable from this source at once. The Pahang river, which communicates with the property, is also well suited for trading purposes, and there are a great many small Chinese boats on the liver living by trade, profits being made by buying gold, tin, Ac. All the materials fLnd produce ot the property can be readily transported by water at a cheap rate. An important feature is that as the river runs throughout the whole length of the Concession, it will save the cost of constructing main roads upon the property, and not only so, but it provides water-power sufficient to enable the Company to run almost any number of stamps which can be erected for treating the mineral produce. The property is reported on by Captai l Skewis, of Brentor, Devon (the expert who originally reported upon the property of the Pahang Corporation, Limited), and by Messrs Henderson and Stuart, Consulting Engineers. Captain Skewis, in his report, says :—" A variety of lodes of tin, silver, gold, and other minerals pass through the Concession, and a very considerable number of alluvial deposits of the same minerals, which thet natives work at considerable profit, are to be found on the estate. I congratulate you on having secured a property ot such magnitude a.nd great va.lue," Messrs Henderson and Stuart in their report say :— You have a large and valuable estate m a new country, with a watercourse throughout its entire length, with old workings scattered through the estate, and with a large and successful estate near you. It is Huitable for planting, and has abundance of valuable timber, and by nrospecting the gold and tin and opening up the ancient workings, there is certain to be a substantial return for the money care- fully invested, besides a large increase in the value of the estate, which is large enough to be resold itl por. tions at a great profit to your Company." Chinese, Javanese, and Malay labour can be obtained in abundance. Wages vary from 6 dols. to 10 dols. a month. The price to be paid for the property is BIOO.OOO. payable as to the whole amount thereof in Shares, or by the soleoptioll of the Directors of the Company, in cash or partly in cash and partly in Shares. The Vendor, who is the promoter, will pay all expenses down to allotment. The following contracts have been entered into, viz.:—Contract dated 22nd January, 1889, and made between Junied bin Omar al-Junied and Syed Mahomed bin Ahuied al-Sagoff of the olle pan andJoseph Cum- ming Bates of the other part. Contract dated 28th January,1889, and made between Joseph Cumming Bates of the- one part, and William Richard May (as trustee for the Company) of the other part. These contracts, or copies of them, together with a copy of a translation of the Concession, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, Captain Skewis* report, Messrs Henderson and Stuart's report, and a. plan of the property, can be seen at the office of the Solicitor of the Com- pany. It is believed that no other contracts, within section 38 of the Companies' Act, 18t8, exist, but in order to avoid any question upon this point sub- scribers shall be deemed to waive all right to any further notice of contract, and applications for shares will be received only on this condition. The statements in this prospectus are entirely takon from documents, reports, and plans submitted to the directors, a.nd open to the inspection of any intending applicant for shares. Applications for shares should be made on the form acc5mpanying the prospectus, to be for- warded to the Company's bankers or to the brokers, accompanied by a remittance for the amount of the deposit.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,— Your Representative, Mr Gwilym Jones, having been raised to the position of Alderman, a vacancy has occurred in your Division, and at the request of many electors I beg to offer myself as a candidate.

The experience I have gained as a member of many public boards, and the training I have had in large commercial undertakings, could be usefully applied in working out tbe problem of self-government contem- plated by the Act. The decision rests with you, and should you think me worthy of your support and confidence, and return me as your representative, you may rely on my serving you with zeal and integrity. I am, Ladies and Gentlemen, Your obedient Servant, WILLIAM JONES. Navigation House, Aberdare Junction, February 4ib, 1889. LAMORGAN COUNTY COUNCIL, \jr 1839.
