The Refinery in Hongkong is now in
full working order, and will be so handed over to the Company on the Sist day of FOR March instant.
The Company in purchasing the Oriental Sugar Refineries will take the business as it stands, together with all the engage ments and contracts already entered into, comprising arrangements for the purchase of Raw Sngar, and disposing of the finished product in the various markets.
The Oriental Sagar Refinery, Limited, will have tho advantage of a choice of markets. The Patent Sugars meet with ready sale at remunerative prices, in Great Britain, the Continent of Europe, Amorica, and Australia, whilst the native trade is baing steadily developed. In fact the Sugar trade in China is now in its infancy, and of its future success there can be no doubt whatever.
The favourable terms upon which the Company have been offered the property and sole right to use the Patent are alike source of security to the Shareholders and a proof of the confidence of those whose enterprise and capital have originat- ed the business.
