 Lawrence, in Lower Canada, and that they are desirous, unit- 
 edly and with others, to prosecute such researches and carry 
 on the business of Mining on an extensive scale, in such Terri- 
 tory, but cannot do so to advantage, unless by the aid of a 
 Charter of Incorporation, and have, therefore, prayed for the
