This Company Is eitabilshed . for the purpose of purchasing the property and continuing the business of the well-known Oxford and Canterbury Music Halls, so succemfully conducted by the present Proprietor, Mr. Charles Morton , for several years past. The Directoes, in bringing the present Company before the public, are not Inviting subscriptions to an %mimosa or untried venture, but to an established and highly remunerative under taking, and one which. with the additional mama at the com mand at a JointAtock Company, may be made still more so. An agreement has been entered into for the pure-ham of the whole of Mr. Morton's interest In them properties, together with the goodwill of the baguets and the stock in trade, on terms highly Ada antegeous to the Company, and in order to show his confidence In its future &waxen, he has subscribed for one fourth of the entire capital, and will continue for some yearn the manager. Il is the intention of the Company to Increase the hotel ae commaistion, which has hitherto been found inadequate. and thus materially add to the present large retain. There is also an excel:tit private wine trade attached to both establishments, which if capable of considerable extension. It is Impossible to show. with certainty, by any statistics, the returns which may be expected from the present undertaking, bat the certified accounts for the last three years show =annual profit of upwards of 50 per cent. upon UN whole amount of capital who h it Ls contemplated eventually to call up. The present average attendance at the Oilcan and Canterbury Music Halls Is about 00,000 a month, and the proposed extension of business will doubtless render the manta of the undertaking still more remunerative than ever. Onehalf of the capital has been already applied for, and applications for the r Madder should be made to the bankers of the Company. accompanied by a deposit of 41 per sham if no allotment be made, the deposit w il l be returned. Prospectuses and forms of application for shares may be obtained at the Orford and the Canterbury, at the broker's, and at the Temporary offices of the Company. The :there LIM window on Tuesday.

A rumour, which we declined to publish, was current yesterday afternoon that the man Muller had been arrested at Queenstown, into which port the ship Victoria had put from some muss or other. A telegram received from Qmenstown last night, however, gives an entire onatradiction to this statement, for which there was no foundation whatever. Our Liver pool correspondent writes that Inspector Tanner, of the ' metropolitan force; Mr. Death, the jeweller; and the cabana, to whose sister Muller was paying hie addresses, left th►t port yesterday for New York, in the New York and Philadelphia Company's steamer City of Manchester. Mr. Tanner is armed with the necessary warrants for the apprehension of the culprit, and hears despatches from Mr. Adams, the American minister in Loudon, so that any proceedings in America will be facilitated to the utmost. The City of Manchester will in all probability arrive out sooner than the Victoria, and every precaution will be taken to secure Muller's arrest. If the New York Associated Press-boat be seen off Caps Ram, telegrams for the Canadian stations will be at cow forwarded, and then the chances in favour of the fugitive escaping will be very few indeed. The state of the weather off Cape Race may prevent de. matches being met, however, until the vessel rushes New York, and if the Victoria makes a good run she may reach Canada before Muller's pursuers. We understand that Mr. Blyth, the landlord of the house in which Muller lodged, gave Inspector Steer a letter be had received from Muller, meted at Worthing on the 16th inst., and which had been brought from the ship Victoria by the pilot when be left that vaiseL The contents of the letter were to the effect that be (Mailer) should "never touch on England's shores again." The letter wee addressed to his former fellow-lodger, Goodwin, to whom he bade farewell for ever. In the course of that officer's search of the room which Muller had ooeu• pied, Inspector Steer found a silk Stern lining, which bad hem bidden up the chimney. It was fated to have he longed %I the sleeve of a man's oat. The bottom part of it was covered with large spots of blood, which have since i been microscopically examined and pronounced to be human blood. The lodger Goodwin handed to Inspector Tanner • photograph of Muller, similar to the one now in the pos session of Inspector Steer. Matthews, the cabman, wee formerly a johns/40er. sad some time ago became bankrupt, and has nut yet obtained his certificate. At the railway stake, on Tuesday night, be lugubriously expressed his fears that his creditors would seize upon the reward. According to the last adrices from the west coast of South America s testimonial is about to be got up throughout the republic.' of Chili, Bolivia, Peru. Ecuador, and New Grenade, to Captain Peacock, who took oat the first mail steamer to the west coast of South America from Englasid through the Straits of Magellan, coeveyed the first matt across the Isthmus of Panama, and armed in steer taming 000taary to the opiciou of geologista, that Chili produced true coal.

CONFLICT BETWEEN HANOVERIAN AND PRUSSIAN TROOPS IN SLESWIG. BERLIN, JOLT SO. The Nordeleutsche Zeitung of to-day says :—" In Rendsbnrg on Monday and Tuesday last the Hanoverian troops attacked the Prussian outposts and soldiers, many of whom were wounded in the streets. Tumultuous assemblages even gathered before the Merges* where sew ssvately wounded Prussians were lying. The Prussian troops were compelled to remain under arms during the night• The Commander-in-Chief of the Federal troops had certainly taken measures for the prevention of a renewal of similar excesses, but these fresh symp tom of serious animosity will engage the most earnest attention of the King's government" FRANCE. PARIS, JULY 20. The French government has addressed a circular to the various powers, inviting them to participate in an international Congress, to be held next autumn for the purpose of regulating telegraphic communixtions in Europe. The King of the Belgians paid a visit to the Empress at St. Cloud to-day. His Majesty will leave at 10 a.m. to-morrow for Vichy. The Moniteur of this evening confirms the news of the Norwegian fleet having been put out of commission, and the troops which had been mobilised disembodied. THE THAMES EMBANKMENT. Yesterday the formal masonic ceremony of laying the first stone of the Thames Embankment was performed with as little ostentation as it could be possible to conceive, in connection with a work of such importance and magnitude. The Chair man of the Metropolitan Board of Works, and several leading members of the board along along with the Hon. W. Cowper and Lord J. Manners, the part and present Commissioners of Works, assembled at the office in Cannon-row, and at about half-past two o'clock pro ceeded, without any order of procession, to the point where the "first moue" hung, like the coffin of the prophet, poised in mid-air, but ready to be sunk into its final resting place. A royal standard and a union jack drooped lazily ever the aperture, but beyond this there was no ceremonial arrangement of any kind. Nevertheless, the cere mony was not without its • • features. The huge stone hung suspended by a c in over a vast chasm which dowesaded far beyond the bed of the river, and on the water side of this chasm the great caissons could be observed in close array, offering • successful resistance to the coming tide, which carried the whole water of the Thames away over our heads. Without and above was the river, with its steamboats, its barges, and the whole busy course of its ordinary traffic ; within and beneath was this quadrargular space of dry land, in the midst of water, the stone pen dant in the centre, and the spectators peering from the top, or straining over the descending ladders, or crowded at the bottom waiting with some impatience for the simple but important work of the day. The actual "laying the first stone" is a rite of which few require to have a detailed description. There is the stone, and the bed of concrete waiting to receive it, and the bottle with the coins and newspapers, and the silver trowel, which is to be the perquisite of the masonic high priest of the occa sion. Sometimes there are the c ler gyman to give a religious sanction to the work, and the ladies to grace it by their presence ; but on this occasion there were neither the prayers of the church nor the smiles of the fair—the thing was done ea a mere matter of business, and if there were to be any festal accessories, they were reserved for a future and more private opportunity. It is needless to say that theexcellent Chairman of the Metropolitan Board handled his trowel and spread his mortar in a methodical aud artistic man ner. When that was done, the bottle containing the coins and the newspapers was lowered into a cavity which bad been prepared for the purpose. and then the stone was lowered into its soft and adhesive bed, there to remain until turned up for the inspection of Lord Maceulay's New Zealander when be comes to speculate over the ruins of what once was London. The stone having been placed, the Chairman of the Metropolitan Board of Works, Mr. Thwaites, turned it into a tom rostrum, and improved the occasion witr ra a ry few well timed and judicious observation". He reminded his hearers that the embankment of the Thames was DO lately discovered necessity. Sir Christopher Wren had applied his great mind to the subject, and, in our own days, the painter Martin had made sketches of proposed embankments. He remarked how the necessity of constructing an in tercepting sewer, without interrupting the traffic of the Strand, had precipitated the design of the Thames embankment, and now the great work was further advanced by the suggestion of a subterra nean railway, the effect of which would be ooze- 1 pletely to utilise the reclaimed laud. He thanked her Majesty's government for their cooperation, but more especially the Chancellor of the Exchequer, who, by giving the government guanui tee for the neomeary advances, had, without mulcting the general public to the extent of a shilling, saved the citizens of Loudon eighteen thousand a year during the whole period this grand river esplanade was being constructed. The chairman of the board was followed by the Chief Com misaioner of Works, who expatiated with much enthusiasm on the results which the citizens of Loudon and their visitors might expect from the proposed works. For the first time they would be able to see the Thames without a special pilgrimage down a dirty lane for that purpose, and they would see it in a new and decidedly improved aspect. The poorer classes would have au open playground and highway, and such of them as were of an architectural turn, might compare St. Paul's, the fined specimen of the Italian style at the one cud of the terrace, with the houses of parliament, the perfection of the Gothic, at the other. We saw some critical heads shake doubt ingly as Mr. Cowper thus placed our metropolitan cathedral and our houses of parliament at the head of these respective schools, but it is only fair to add that the members of the Metropolitan Board of Works, who were present, gave an unhesitating assent to the opinion thug expressed by the right hon. gentleman. After Mr. Cowper, Lord J. Man ners added a few words, but the meeting was brought to rather a sudden termination by the omi nous rattle of the pumps, and the appearance of the water in tiny but rapidly iucresaing)casaidei in the ineterstices of the great caissons, which were our only prctectio• from the whole mighty flood of the Thames at high water. [TWOPENCE CREMORNE GARDENS. = ASCENT IN A FIRE BALLOON. M. Eugene Godard, who signs himself, no doubt with sufficient authorisation, " A eronaute de l'Empereur," has been engaged by the enterprising Mr. E. T. &lab, and last night be made a remarkable and socremdal ascent at Cremorne-gardens, in an enormous balloon of his own con struction, which he styles "The Eagle." Wu call the ascent remarkable, because M. Godard returns, is some measure, to the first principles of aerostation, discards gas, and goes beck to the ordinary original " Mootgolfier " balloon, which is commonly known as a "fire balloon." For many years, until the introduction of inflation by gas, balloons were known as Montgol ger., though animal s were more often employed than man to test the safety of aerial travelling. I. Godard's engagement at Comoros of course has nothing to do with science, and is simply a sensational attraction for the broad multitude, but the presence of nearly every scientific me interested in ballooning, includ ing Mr. Colwell and Mr. Glanher, raised the experiment of last sight far above the ordinary tea-garden level. M. Godard's balloon is an enormous atrocity*, made of silk inside, and very plain canvas outside, of the oediaary pear-shape, covered with representations of the French Eagle, and having sear the top a bine carer via whisiirsarie—be bask the fassw 4 lot of kin whitey-brown surface. Ent year M. Radar's "Giant balloon was a subject of international interest, but "the Eagle" far surpasses it is size, and the following statistics may not be uninteresting. It is 117 feet 7 inches in height. 96 fat 9 lathes in eircamfereen 300 feet 6 iodise super ficial. 30,000 feet in area, 2,ooMbe. in weight, 498,566 =hie entente, cattails' 4,793 square yards of silk is 1,910 pieces of 96 stripes, 14,203 fast of stitching, 96 overlaps of joints, 154 feet long, making 13,848 feet more of sewing. 17,244 feet of galloon, which form the set work ; the galloon an stitched on both aides, and contain 34.319 more feet of stitch ing. 24 compartments in the parachute require 6,824 feet of stitching. The total number, 69,324 feet of stitching, containing 2,706 days of work, and the :valve is 4 feet 8 inches in diameter, and the appendix is 24 feet 5 inches ; the opening of the latter is held rigged by a woods° hoop, 32 cords to sustain the car,wbich weighs 5851 b., is dish shaped, and 13 ft. 2 inches in diameter, with a border of 8 inches ; the whole constructed of several piers, which on be disooosected and put together spin for con venience of transport. The hoop and the ear are also at tacked by 64 metal cords. In the centre of theca: is an 18 feat stove, including the chimney, 960 pounds is weieht„ 6ft. 6in. in diameter, three cylinders, three bathes apart from each other, invented by M. Godard, with a view to coun teract the effects of the radiated heat upon the occupants of the ear ; inside the fine is a metal colander to intercept sparks. The combetatibleemployed in lieu of gam is interim eleaned from the ears and compressed into Moan. The total weight of the balloon (including the grappling iron cords 400 lbs., two supplementary pumps, 150 lbs., and combustible, 500 lbs.) is 4,620 lbs. The huge cylinder andfurnace inside the balloon give it a very heavy, earthy appearance before it is 1100.841 with rari„ Sad air by lighting the fire, and give it a very hot, roaring, apparently dangerous and steamboat engine -room appear ance when it is ready to start. Every soiestific precaution. however, se before stated, has been taken to guard against the neon of fire ; and the advantage of returning to the Mccitgolfier system ia, that the inflation can be completed in less than an hour. last night it only took 45 minutes ; and M. Godard says that coder favourable circumstasoes be can fill aid dart in less than half au hour. With a gas-filled harem tie prewar of inflation is generally long sad tire some, somelimes beginning at ten o'clock in the morning, sad sot being finished at six o'clock in the wining, th mud hour for ".rending. What may be the respectiv e merits of the two systems in stormy weather, we leave the learned in aerostatic.° to determine. An immense crowd mumbled to witness IL Godard's mutt, and by six o'clock there wen probably sot less than twelve thousand persons present. The heavy-lookiag eaterier of the balloon, and the accounts of the iron work IDSiall, sourished doubts as to the practicability of the assert, sad it was sot wild the immense mass rapidly rams from the ground, and swayed to and fro before the ipso talon, that the public confidence began to revive. At a quarter to eight the whole fabric stood up amongst the tress and poles of the somewhat crowded ground. and the various ropes that held it to the earth were end away one by eise. M. Godard ram rapidly resod the solid wicker ear, goatees orders through • speaking trumpet with pardonable excitability. Two gentlemen took their places in the ear—Mr. Prows., and an officer in the Guards, and a third heavy military gentleman leaped is, much easiest the wish of If. Godard. Many were left behind who had parchseed seats, but who had doubts at she eleventh hour. The deal rope was cot away, sad the huge ball, half the height ad the menu:need, rolled rather than rose towards the sent Side et the garde... Here it met a Arm lofty polo to whit* some of its detaining ropes had berm attached, and this pole was beet creaking on to the roof of a theatrical Swims Cottage, which broke in like • piece of ornaroeutal pastry. For a few same& the balloon seemed to return to the prdens, and to dowsed towards the peas, while the etchers were seem desperately throwing the small trusses of ocanpremed straw into the month of the fiery farness. IL Godard raved through his trumpet, and the excitement mused normal ladies to faint, and a large portion of the crowd to rush panic-stricken towards the hotel. Is less than amino* however, the " Fagle" bad regained her buoyancy, and she rose with extraordinary steadiness above the lofty trees of the warders. There was little wind alining, and her course appeared to be in the dlreetioa of Woolwieb. Her appeerance was peculiar, as she had no variegated stripes of colour, like the ordinary oil-skin balloooa ; the yellow furnace gletnaed jest taxies the travellers sad trader her neck, and numbers of small straw trams hung &agilely naderamith her car. The balloon safely desceaded at Gnaw wick. The brat in the balloon was almost painful ; but neither aistougst Englishmen nor Frenchmen VII a murmur beard as steadily, one after one, the trusses of straw were passed into the flea. At so time did the balloon amend each above half a mile, and at so tees did that ugly roaring, crackling clunour cease ; but M. Godard was bland and brave, his fellow-countrymen ware courteous and courageous, and the Englishmen held their tongues. Three times the balloon pared over the Th►mes ; and when it wee resolved to alight, N. Godard was over the Isle of Dogs. He had fixed his eye, however, upon the Fad Greenwich marshes, as an open space in which the &meet could be safely attempted. Very nicely and skilfully mien. Wed were hi sea•oeuvres Traversing the Thames at en exceedingly low elevation, the balloon jest grounded upon the shore, within a dozen yards of the water. Distinctly to understand the MOM, excitement of the next three minutes, it should be borne in mind that the tire was stilt roaring merrily away ; that the machinery, so admirable for Its medal purposes, would have caused sad havoc bad there been anything like a general upset ; and that at this pert& =dm moment six men could exert very little control over • balloon capable of colatitude( IdO,OPO cubic feet of air. Touching the shore, the balloon tore away, the big canvas flapping, the bright fire burning, whilst right in frost rose • stone embankment. The shocks were rough, and had the tra vellers been novices in this particular method of locomo tion we might now have some awkward casualties to relate. Just before each bump, however, men made a little leap, and thus bsulked its force, m • cricketer, to catch • ball, draws back his had instead of protruding it. Still, with all there precautions, it was a nasty drive ; it occupied perhaps a minute—it seemed half an hour—ad there was a strong inclination to cheer when the threatening stoma were passel. On now into a potato field ; soother rise ; a wild tendency to leap at a chimney ; a strong " exhibition " of reatraiot is the shape of a hundred sensible Esglishmen tugging away at the ropes, and obeying the orders that were given—and the whole thing was over. Altogether the sweat was a stioe.essful u the one ISMS Let year in Paris, when 100,u00 attended, with the Emperor at their head. The value of the balloon is said to be 4,0004 sterling.
