The Directors have secured for 96 years maple land adjoining the railway junction at St. Jago, for the erection of warehouses and other necessary buildings. The cork trade is at present carried on through the 'nitro nrentality of the Algraveoe, persons who, travelling from forest to forest, purchase on the ground parcels of Cork, which, at great labour and expense, they carry to Lisbon and other places, where it is prepared for export. The money for these purchases is musky borrowed by them at high raise of intere4, frequently at 20 to 30 per cent., thereby considerably Increasing the cost of the cork by thin large item of expense. The waste attending the preparation of the cork for the market Is about one-half. The Company haring large districts of cork forest, with a central depot at the railway junction at St. Jago, and establiahmenta in the heart of this cork-producing country, already in full work. at Amnia, Igrejinha, Alcacorsa, and Portel, wIU be enabled to effect a large saving in the waste and transport alone, as the cost of carrying cork to the chief prepar ing and shipping port,, in a rough state, adds very considerably to the first cost of the cork in the forests, and the present large waste in preparing the cork will be very greatly reduced Lu the mount. IVelorests secured by this Company now produce, with the inadequate and imperfect means hitherto employed, the esti mated annual value of c 12,600 in marketable core, as established by the average shipments of the produce during the last four yearn, and which it Is calculated will be Increased by the superior available means of the Company to at least double the amount formerly obtained. The demand and consumption of cork in England has increased since, the year 184 S three hundred per cent., and is still increasing far beyond the actual means of supply, thus offering a certain tads for the profitable employ ment of capital. The Directors have secured last year's crop of raw cork, esti mated at 1,100 tom, which is In preparation, and are therefore enabled to commence liminess at once, and live sales of cork which have already been effected from the Company's stock, con of about 170 tons, have realised about £4,390 net, in s a l itllon to which a cargo of 60 tons, ex steamer Mavrocordattm, arrived at the London Acts on the 15th of May. The purchase money for the whole of the leases, together with the plant in Portugal, and the last year's crop of cork, now pre fer market, will not exceed 1730,000. Of this £l,OOO only, pre gatingless than the estimated value of the Company's plant and cork on hand, will be paid for in cash, the remainder is to be taken in shares of the Company half paid up, with the same liability for eallees all other shares. The Directors submit the following statement for the first year, with the greatest coufistence In the result. The present crop will produce In London within six months At least 600 tons of Cork of an average value of £3O per Wu gross £16,000 0 0 At a cost of— For labourin Portugal 13,000 0 0 For Part Kent For Freight and Landing 2.000 0 0 For Ronk &Llano& Se. 1,100 0 0 6,500 0 0 t 03,500 0 0 (listirnated commisidon on consignment' expected by the Com- , ;Any. say £1,600) Equal to 1111 per cent. upon the entire capital about to be called up.

This Company has been formed for the purpose of establishing a " through system" of hotel accommodation between London and Paris and elsewhere, and all necessary powers have been secured In the articles of association for carrying out this de sirable object. The advantages of uniting under one management the French and English systems of an Hotel business, combining the solid comforts of English life with the elegance and variety of French living, will be fully appreciated by the tourist and traveller of both countries, and there is nothing that will more certainly secure thegood opinion and patronage of the public, and at the same time increase the habit or desire for travelling, than the knowledge that a similar and fixed tariff of charges can be depended ap h throughout an entire route. Favourable arrangements have been made for the purchase of Mermen's Hotel, In Paris, and first-clam Hotels in Boulogne sod Folkestone, so that an immediate and profitable business will be secured to the Company, and which their large capital and eonnexisns will enable them still further to increase from the very day they take possession of each separate eetabilshment Each proprietor agrees to take one third of the purchase money In shares for the property sold by him, and guarantee. a ate per cent dividend for the first year on the amount he receives. Portions of the purchase money of some of ,the properties can also remain on tnortgace. For the London Establishment the Directors have been able to secure one of the most valuable and important freehold pro perties In the metropolis, terms of purchase having been con cluded for that extensive mansion in 9t James'nstreet, formerly known as Crockforses Club House, and a large portion of the adjoining property. Upon this advantageous site It is intended to erect an hotel suitable in every respect to the requirements and importance of this onderting, bat until complete posses sion of the whole property nm be obtained, the present rentals and return' will enable the proprietor to guarantee a minimum dividend to the shareholders of six per cent on the amount of purchase mercy. Shareholden will therefore receive at least rf x per cent, for the first year on the amount paid up by them from date of allotment, and will be at liberty to anticipate calls by paying up in full. The fell benefit to be derived from the system "en corres pondence" will he thus offered to families and trsvellers, whether proceeding direct to eithe;•=tai, or stopping at either port for or rec reat ion and the dismal 'ft P :nra i n e :o o y f an b ce hitherto experienced throughout a journey, arising front the different manner to which diffethut hotels see cooducted, will be avoided: visitors will also be able to make their own arrangements in London or Perla, or at eit her esta blishment " en route, - with the utmost confidence se to expense, and the full assurance of finding every domestic comfort to which they are accustomed. When fnfb ;tip; ;Led, It is the intention of the directors to llPPolat wouriars to accompany certain specified trains for the assistance of passengers Intending to stop at Wier of the hotels belonging to this Company. The protection thus afforded whilst travelling w il l not only materially tend to the comfort of ladies. families, and invalids, If alone, but will save victors gene. rally much trouble, and satiety all as to the safety of their 'Wage. &c. As there will be a banking department In each hotel belong. Mg to this Company, the inconvenience and loss so generally esp-rtenced In the exchange of foreign money will be avoided. English and foreign letters of credit will also be granted and negotiated. The business of an hotel when properly conducted, whether carried on by a public Company or by private enterprise. is found to be highly remunerative, and the Directors of this Company believe that the present undertaking, which is commenced under peculiar advantages, will yield large profits upon the capital love.ted. Applications for shares, In the form attached to should be addressed to the Secretary, Banker,, or Bret rir e ° rso e f et tre . Company. A deposit of 10k on each share applied for must be previously paid to the Bankers, or at the Offices of the Company in London or Perla where the Articles of Association can be seen ; sad In the event of no allotment being made, the deposit money will be returned In full.

Mexican accounts from Puebla to the 90th April, received here rid San Francisco, and published by the New York journals, say : " The French had two further conflicts with the Mexicans ; in the first of which the Mexicans held their ground, and in the second remained masters of the field, capturing 150 Zouavee.

MEXICO. Mr. J. 8. Hart, of the Mexican Consulate at London, in sending to the Daily Yews the Mexican official report of the operations of the contending armies at Puebla during the month of April last, obeeryes : " If the Emperor of the French is indifferent to the sacrifice of blood and treasure, and isdetermined on reaching the capital, there can be certainly no question as to the result ; but the victory will be a barren one, ruins only will mark the spot where once stood a town and a capitaL Puebla is already half destroyed, and will be so entirely before it is evacuated, and the same fate awaits the city. The government will then retire to one of the many neighbouring states. It cannot be supposed for one moment that the conquest of the whole republic is intended. What, then, will the French really have gained There is no doubt from the changing programme that the Emperor has been misled. He would lose none of his European laurels by withdrawing from this bootless campaign, and nobly admitting that where he hoped to meet a welcome he has been received with determined resistance. Common humanity loudly demands the admission." INDEPL'IDINCZ OF POLAND.—A public meeting of the inbabitaate of Westminster, ia favour of Polish atlooality, was held last eveniag in the Temperance hall, Broadway, westadoster ; Mr. George Potter in the chair, supported by Mr. J. A. Niebolay, Cspteio Roger., Mr. E. Beaks, Mr. J. R. Taylor, Stc. These performances are given by the eminent firm of Mesas. Ewerand Co., for the purpose of maid* thesub scribers to their extensive musical library to boar some of the most nowt additions to their collection. At the second concert, which took place at the Hanover-nears Rooms yesterday, a pianoforte quartett by Stiehl, and a string quartett by Volkmann, were given u specimens of the newest school of German instrumental music. Neither of these works, however, is likely to advanoeltbe reputation of modern German mule, being as incoherent in plea and laboured in execution as they are ambitious is putension. They have the vagueness and indefiniteness which characterise much of Schamana's instrumental music, without a particle of the genius poisoned by that much maligned composer. New music, however, is always in request, and it is interesting to be enabled to hear and judge of recent efforts in the art. Among the vocal pieces the most noticeable were some of &humane' liakr, expressively mug by Radii.. Elvin Behrens and Miss gobertime Hen derson. The instrumentalists were Mews. Danorenther, Ssintoa, Ries, Webb, and Peque. The /001111 wee quite filled by amateurs and professors, mostly subscribers to Messrs. Ewer's library, which has now become a most im portant collection of all the standard works, theoretical, historical, and penetasel. AMATEUR CONCERT FOR THE NATIONAL HOS. PITAL FOR THE PARALYSED AND EPILEPTIC. Last night a grand amateur performance, with the above benevolent object, took place at the Hanover• square Rooms. It was given under the especial patronage of the Duchess of Cambridge, the Princess Mary, sod a long list of ladies belonging to the highest ranks of the nobility. A numbs? of these ladies-patronesses, too, among whom were the Duchess of Sutherland, the Countess of Sheffield, the Marchioness of Tbomond, lady Charlotte Denison, and lady Ashburton, honoured the concert with their presence ; and we need not add that the room was filled by a large and distinguished audience. THE GUILD OF LITERATURE AND ART. The Guild of Literature and Art-started some twelve yeses ago by Sir E. Buiwer Lytton, Mr. Charles Dickens, sod a knot of distinguished authors and artists— has at length shaken off the errors of its youth, and sprung into a new, and we hope • vigorous existence. Whatever new faults may be laid upon its shoulders by enemies, what ever mistakes, more or less pardcciable, its executive may make, it will no longer be jocularly known as " The Sleeping Beauty." It has turned its back boldly upon that benevo lent pert of its design which was intended to make its members insure their lives, and subscribe a certain annual sum to • sickness fund, and it now names forward simply ea ac association of literary men and artiste, with an entrance fee and annual subscription of the moat moderate amount. This alteration having been adopted eta meeting of members held on Monday, at which Messrs. Chides Dickens, Charles Knight, John Oxeoford, John Hollingshead, W. Moy Thomas, J. R. Robinson, E. Blanchard, Robert Chambers, W. H. Wills, Charles Wordsworth, Charles Heade, and Stirling Coyne, were preempt, the Guild is now nothing more than en ordinary society of literary men and artists, started for mutual assistance, with a certain capital accumulated by the exertions of its original members. This capital, concerning which so many mysterious allusions and inuendoee have long been circulated in that very uncharitable section of society knows as the literary world, is still intact, and it smooch; to 3,74 W. It will be increased by Sir E. Buiwer Lyttoa's gift of hod, alluded to in the report, and pro bably by further gifts from well-wishers to the association. A fair opportunity is now offered to all literary men and artists who are worthy of the name to forma really strong society for mutual help and protection. The election of members is placed on the moat liberal bus* though every care will be taken to keep out the mere Joseph Adys of literature. The list of members who have already joined will soon be published, together with • belaaoseheet of in come and expecditure from 1851 down to the present time. These documeuta will undoubtedly help to increase the members of the society. It will then be found how many men of very varied positions and opinions cau be readily found to co-operate for a good and practical object. UNIVERSITY COLLEGE HOSPITAL.
