This company is established with the object of working coals in the Valley of the Damoodah , in Bengal , and of supplying the great and rapidly-increasing demand in India for that article . ¦ ' The profitable nature of such an undertaking has been gla ced beyond all doubt by the fact of an association—the engal Coal Company—working in the immediate proposed locality , having for some years past paid its shareholders dividends varying from twelve + o sixteen per cent . The East India Coal Company will have the advantage of commencing its operations with the means of transporting its coal to market by rail in six hours—a benefit of vast importance , when nVis Te ' membered that "until -within these last few months the only mode Of transit has-been of the most tedious , dangerous , and expensive character , combining land and water-carriage—the former by carts , the latter on a torrent navigable for ; a very brief period of the year . The collieries -and lands secured by the directors are extensive and valuable : they consist of five distinct mines , together with buildings , plant , &c . &c , and comprise an area of five hundred acres . The seams vary from eight to sixteen feet in thickness , and contain an inexhaustible supply of coal . Toposi and Konoos ' toria , the two principal mines , are immediately adjoining , aud situated within three miles of the East India Railway Company ' s terminus at Ranegunge , and 129 miles ( by rail ) from Calcutta . They have been worked on a small scale for the last five years , supplying for two or three years the India General Steam Navigation Company with all the fuel for its steamers . Five shafts have been sunk , at depths varying . from 35 to 60-feet . Samples taken from these mines have been submitted to competent examination , and pronounced equal to good Welsh steam coal . The other three mines , Kosta , Russah , and Tanksooly , although at greater distances from the rail , -are valuable with reference to the superior quality of the coal , and its capabilities for coking purposes . The terms upon which these mines have been purchased are highly favourable to the shareholders . Not only is the price extremely moderate , with reference to previous sales of similar property in India , but the seller has consented to receive the whole amount in shares of the company . A chart- of the mines , samples of the coal , and a full report from competent parties in India as to the workings and extent of the property , are in possession of the directors , and may be inspected at this olnce . For the information of those unable to avail themselves of this privilege , a few brief remarks tiro here submitted . —Owing to tho cheapness of labour in India , atonof coal can be raised and deposited at the pit's mouth for a sum equal to one shilling and twopence . The present charge for conveyance , by rail , to Calcutta , is cloven shillings and sixpence per ton ; the cost of the coal , therefore , in Calcutta will be twelve shillings and cightpence nei ton ; or , adding one shilling and fourpenco for sundry charges , fourteen shillings . Tho price of coal in Calcutta has never been less , for many yearn , than twontyono shillings per ton ; and tho profit consequently will be the difference , or Bcven shillings-per ton . The quantity of coal raised would not bo less than three hundred tons pur diem , leaving a profit of \ 05 l . per day , or . in round numbers , 151 , 503 / . per annum , calculating only 300 working dnys in tho year . Supposing tho whole amount of capital to bo called for , still a dividend of at least twenty percent , may be'confidently anticipated . With tho skill and means now available , a very suporior quality of coal will bo raised to any hitherto brought to market in India . Tho manufacture of Patent Fuel , ujjou tho plan found to anuwcr so well horc , and tho preparation of coke for tho uso < . f tho Iudian railways , &c , will ongogo tho attention of lliis'coinpany . The deep interest which tho Government 'of India , tho various Indian riiilwny companies , tl ; o Inland Steam Navigation Companies , tho PciihiHulur and Oriental BtoaniCompany , and tho Oriental Gas Oonipnny must naturally havo in the success of thin Bohonic , promiucs to tho proprietors an amount of Bupport not uuuully commanded by -public companies . It i . s proiioucd to manage tho affairs , of tho company in tho mnunor adopted by tho PoniuBular and Oriental Steam Company , and tho various Indian . railway companion , —tlmt is , by a board of direction in London , nud an agency and superintendent ! * in India .
