The Directors, in bringing the present Company before the public, are not Inviting subscriptions to an unknown or untried venture, but to en established and highly remunerative under taking, end one which, with the additional means at the com mand of a Joint-Ateek Company, may be made still more so. An agmement has been entered into for the purchase of the whole of Mr. Norton's interest in these properties, together with the go odwill of the hominess and the Mack In trade, on highly to termsadvantageous the Company, and In order to show his coed, ence in its future success, he has subscribed for one fourth of the entire capital, and will continue for some years the manager. It is the intention of the Company to increase the hotel ac commodation, which hes hitherto been found inadequate, and thou materially add to the present bun* returns. There la also an excellent private wine trade attached to both establishments, which is capable of considerable extension. It Is Impossible to show, with certainty, by any MAHAR.., the returns which may be expected from the present undertaking. but the certified accounts for the last three years show an annual profit of upwards of tO per cent upon the whole amount of capital which it is contemplated eventually I. call up. The present average attendance at the Otforu sod Canterbury Music Halls Is about 60,000 a month, and the proposed extemsi.al of business will doubtless render the profits of the undertaking still more remunerative than tier. ----- One•italf of the capital has been already applied for, and applications for the ri main. ler should be made to the bankers of the Company, accompanied by a deposit of Si per share ; it no allotment be made, the deposit will he returned. Prospectuses and forms of application for shares may be obtained at the Oxford and the t anterhum at the broker's, and at the Temporary offices of the Company. Tb.

Japanned Deal Goods may be seen in complete suites of dye or sir different colours, some of them light and ornamental, and others of &plainer description Suites of Stained Deal Gothic Furniture, Polished Deal, Oak, and Walnut, are also set apart in separate rooms, so that customers are at le to see the effect as it would appear in their own rooms.

THE ROYAL AGRICULTURAL SHOW. (Floe col owx moms.) NEWCASTLE, JOLT 19. This being a half-a-crown day, and therefore a price more adapted to the fanning and shop keeping class than the aristocratic ten shillings, the number of visitors to the showyard was very large. Not only did the town of Newcastle and the adjacent districts send their thousands to the show, but from an early hour the railways running north, south, east, and west brought in vast crowds, who immediately directed their steps tothe great point of attraction on the Moor. The weather continues superb, and this no doubt has contributed to swell the tide that is now surging through the town in all directions. - . I mentioned yesterdy that the present show was not equal to the preceding one at Worcester, but it was more varied, in consequence of the presence of a considerable number of Scotch breeds. If I were to single out for prominence any part of the present collection, I should name the department of short-horned bulls and heifers, which was very fine. The fawn-coloured and compact cattle from the Channel Islands were very much admired, as were also the black cattle from the Highlands, powerful Galloway bulla broad ribbed and active animals. The white-faced Herefords and the smaller Devon. view /aids repressuted. The Y• 601011 breeds of sheep were also well represented,- including Lei cester, Cotswold, Lincoln, and other long-woolled sheep, Oxfordshire Downs, Southdown, Border Leicesters, Herdwicka, Shropshiree, and Hemp shires, and other short-woolled sheep, the latter of which are comparative strangers to this part of the country. Cheviot and black-faced sheep were also in considerable force, chiefly from the Northumbrian farms and the south of Scotland. There is nothing, however, in this department to call for any special remark. The show of sheep was not numerous, but the specimens were good. The entries of pile this year are not so numerous as at the shows previously held in great agricultural centres, but those exhibited are remarkably good as to quality and the " points " which challenge the attention of the agricultural connoisseur. A large number are from Yorkshire, but one or two of the other pig-breeding counties are very well repre sented. For the purposes of classification the stock shown is divided into the large and small breeds, and these (again are subdivided into the black and white breeds. In this class—boars of a large white breed—eight specimens are shown. They are gigantic fellows, but so fond of their beds of clean straw, with their heads half buried in one corner, that the extent of their proportions can seldom be seen. The boars of the small white breed are ten in number, and though deficient in length and height, as compared with their larger brethren, are yet of formidable proportions. There are eight boar of the small black breed, and thirteen of the Berkshire monsters, who are also black and of ugly countenance. There are shown, besides, hall-a- 1 dozen boars of other breeds, most of them white. Among the breeding sows are some tremendous specimens, with fine litters. There are 13 of the large white breed, and no fewer than 19 of the small exhibited. Of the large Berkshire breed, fourteen breedingsows are shown ; eleven of the small black, and eleven (mostly white) of a class not included in the classes already mentioned. Of breeding sow pigs there are shown five pens, each containing three of the same litter of each particular breed, whose ages vary from four to eight months. Of the white breed there are three pens of the large and two of the small ; of the black, two pens of the small and eight of the Berkshire, besides six pens of a breed not eligible for admission into the other classes. With the machinery in motion and the implements in the various stands it is utterly impossible to deal by any deseription, the items are so numerous and designed for such a variety of purposes. Our best known agricultural machinists and implement makers were well represented, and an entire day devoted to these departments would amply repay the visitor for his trouble. The attendance on the show ground yesterday was numerous, and amongst those present were : The Right Hon. Lord Ravensworth, Ravensworth Castle ; the Right Hon. Lord Lovaine, M.P. ; the Hon. H. G. Liddell, M.P., and Mra. Liddell ; Captain Athol Liddell ; the Hon. Seymour Liddell; the Right Hon. the Earl Grey ; the Right Hon. the Earl of Tankerville, and Countess of Tanker vine, Chillingham Castle ; the Right Hon. the Earl Cathcart ; the Right Hon. the Earl of Zetland ; his Grace the Duke of Montrose ; Lord Wenlock ; the Right Hon. Lord Chatham, London ; Lord INversham ; Hon. Colonel Pennant, M.P. ; the Right Hon. H. C. Laacelles ; Sir Matthew White Ridley, Bart., M.P., Blagdon ; Sir Walter Calverley Trevelyan, Bart., Walliugton Hall ; Sir Bedworth Williamson, Bart., M.P., Whitburn Hall : Lord Walsiogham ; Sir John Fife ; Hon.

Beaumont, F.sq., M.P., Allenbeada ; Somerset Beaumont, Esq., M.P. ; the Rev. Dr. Waddington, Dean of Durham ; and M. Bell, Esq. The attendance on the first day was not equal to th►t at Worcester, and the receipts fell short of the amount taken at the latter place by 4W. The competition with the steam engines for agri cultural purposes was only concluded yesterday evening. The liveliest interest was taken during the contest, farmers of all classes becoming more and more convinced of the importance of these powerful machines for agricultural purposes. I cannot close this communication without re marking that the prices for hotel accommodation and apartments in Newcastle are exorbitant. A tolerably decent bedroom costa 10s. • night. It could hardly have been higher if the show had been held in Durham or Darlington, both of which loca lities were competitors with Newcastle for the favour of the Royal Agricultural Society's decision. Per haps the inhabitants are of opinion that they are justified in recouping themselves by "taking in the strangers" for the 5,0001. which the town contri buted to the expenses of the show. There was a promenade soiree yesterday after noon in the Botanical Society's show ground, and a ball was held in the Assembly Rooms, Westgate street. The Mayor is to give a banquet this even ing, so that there is little pause between one sphere of amusement and another. A dog and poultry show are amongst the things to be exhibited to day. The award of prizes for the best steam engines wid not be made till two o'clock, too late for this letter. BRITISH INDIA TEA COMPANY. —The first ordi pray meeting of the shareholders of this company was bold yesterday at the aloes of the company, 6, Winchester. street, Sir John Peter Grant in the chair, when a dividend was declared at the rate of ss. Id. per share, being equivalent to 8 per cent, per annum on the paid-up capital of the com pany. It was explained by the chairman that the company wee started as late as October bulk sod that it was not until the following month they received the conveyance of the estate which they bad purchased from Mr. Stewart, of which property they were now having a careful survey executed. The sales therefore on which they had realised , their profits were not so much in respect to , teas of their oleo growth, as of teas which they had received over from the original proprietor of the estate. It was highly gratifying to find that all the calls hitherto medalled been proniptly responded to, and there was not a , single shareholder in default. With the call to be made in November next,they would, he expected, after the complete • payment of the purchase money, have a milkiest stocking capital to enable them to carry on their operations as tea growers and vendors, but should the directors hod that with the growth of their badness money would be required, they would make a further mil, but thew would make no call which was not actually regains& The directors took power to declare half•yearly dividends on account of the regular dividends to he declared as the annual meeting in July of each year. A sum of 21 guineas was then voted as remmaratioo to the auditor of the company, sod the proceedings terminated in the usual manner. CETIRAL PALACE. ONE SHILLING LAT.

Yesterday was a most interesting day to those who have nearly since the commencement of the meeting been engaged in endeavouring to obtain the coveted honour awarded by the Sovereign to him who' should prove that he beat deserved it. The contest which originally began with 2,300 aspirente for Wimbledon fame after Friday last was reduced to 60, the picking of the best shots of the kingdom, and it was from this number that the one should be found who should entitle himself to the highest diminution that the association could bestow. The " blue ribbon" of Wimbledon has been successively obtained by Mr. Edward Ross, Mr. Jopling, Mr. Pixley, and Mr. Roberts, but who should obtain it for 1864 was still but problematical, and left in the womb of time. The sixty who were to be the competitors for this stage, at 800, 900, and 1,000 yards, paraded soon after nine o'clock in front of the *Mfg tent, mad were then told in squads, and proceeded to the different firing points appropriated to them. There was some time occupied in taking two sighting shots by each man, as a preliminary to the real business of the day, and this having been got over, the renewed contest began. There were some complaints very prevalent in the early pert of the day that the Whitworth rifles that were supplied by the association to the sixty volunteers firing at theme ranee were either improperly sighted, or were in other respects imperfect, and this was attributed by some as the reason why they did not make their oacoatomod road saaroa One of those who distinguished himself in the first two ranges of this stage was Lieut.-Colonel Belford, 4th Leices ter, who at 800 yards made 21 marks, and at 900 yards 20 marks, making a total of 41 marks, and this high score was almost looked upon as a tolerably curefoundation uponwhich the future superstructure of his fame was to be built. Print* Howard, of the Ist Suffolk, who gained the silver medal of the aasociatioc, and had the highest wore, on going to the 800 yards range made but 15 marks in seven shots, upon which he considered any further struggle for the honour hopeless, and retired from all further share in the contest. On the range beteg taken at 1,000 yards some excellent shooting was made by Ensign Black, of the 22nd Mid. dimes, and in the early part of the round he scored 52, but afterwards missing the target his chance then entirely faded away. Public attention was then directed to Lieutenant-Colonel Hallo, d, who after a very spirited contest in another squad succeeded in leaving recorded to his name the large score of 50. Although some other squads had not quite shot through, yet with the score of 59 the gallant colonel was freely congratulated as the winner of the Queen's prize. Colonel Belford, amidst all these courtesies, behaved in • very calm and almost reserved manner, p robably remembering the old trite adage as to the slip between the cup and the lip, and thus showed the cool jadgmmt which has hitherto marked the gallant colonel's career, although ranked as one of the best shots in the king dom. He quitted the ground in company with Mrs. Belford with the greatest possible unconcern, nodemonstration what ever took place, and he left it to fate to reveal the malt. Thin was wisely done, for full half an hour afterwards • loud shout was heard amongst • 'quad who bad been firing at • distant pert of the common, which is the nearest to Wimbledon, and which had received scarcely any attention whatever except from the parties who ware taking part in the ooziest. This sound was increased as the crowd collected, and the cause of it was soon ascertained to be that this unimportant and unnoticed little knot contained the winner of the Queen's prize. Private Wyatt, of the Loodon Rifle Brigade, was declared to be the successful competitor, and no sootier bad this become known in the camp than there was a general rush of the members of the City of London corps to meet him. They mounted him upon the shoulders of two of his comrades, who were most willing to bear the load, and carried him through the camp in triumph, the band of the Grenadier Guards playing •• See the conquering hero comes." The City of Loader Volunteers are encamped on the ground, and as Mr. Wyatt was on his way there Lord Elcho met the motley assemblage of volun teers from all parts of the kingdom, shook hands with the hero of the day, and warmly congratulated him upon his success. When he got to the London Ride Brigade quarters Mr. Wyatt's health was drank in bumpers of champagne, for which be returned thanks in very suitable terms, sod soon after Mrs. Wyatt, who was accompanied by her daughter, entered the marquee, and received the hearty congratulation of every one present at the Imam her husband had achieved. Nothing could exceed the exuberant joy . that prevailed. Every member of the corps immediately placed in his shako • branch of oak, and the usual stag of the London Rile Brigade was hauled down and • large branch of oak was pieced above it, and it was again raised to the summit of the nag-staff. A telegraphic message was sent immediately to London requiring the attendance of the band, and pcs.it tog bills were freely circulated throughout the camp, in viting all penman to come to the quarters and take punch with the London Rifle Brigade in the evening. The result i has given the moat unbounded reinfection ; for three years ' has Mr. Wyatt won a Whitworth rifle and three of the horsourable badges of the National Rifle Association, and he is one of the most hard-working men in the corps to which he belongs. Mr. Wyatt is employed in the house of Messrs. Churchill sad Soo, timber broken, of Old Broad street, City ; and it is rather • curious fact that the place of Waimea of Mr. Pixley, • former winner of the Queen's Prise, ie within • few doors of the place. and a few I doors farther on is the place of business of Mr. Parsons, the I winner, this year, of the Alexandra Prize. Until the Volnn. I tier movement was communed Mr. Wyatt never fired a shot in his life. Another feature of considerable importance in the day's proceedings was the contest for the Ashburton Shield by eleven from the public schools. The schools represented on this occasion were Harrow, Marlborough, Winchester, Rugby. Cheltenham:, ►nd Eton. It was to be shot for at 200 and 500 yards, and the one making the highest score for each school was afterwards to enter into a second competi tion for Lord Spencer's Cup. The Ashburton Shield is only held by the victorious school for one year, but Lord Spen cer's Cup becomes absolutely the property of him who shall make the highest score. The shooting wee of a very superior order, and it was witnemed as usual by a very large and fashionable company, but the highest score was made by Corporal Thornton, of the Cheltenham School, who made the large score of 30 marks. But as be was rather above the talent of hi cern. petitom in the mama school, they were compelled to give way to those from Harrow School. who gained the prize by 228 marks, Cheltenham making 218, thereby losing by 8 marks only. Earl Spencer's Prize was then shot for by the highest from each school, and it was won alter a very spirited con test by 12 marks. Some other competitions took place. Yesterday an unusual excitement was produced In the camp by the furze taking fire on the common immediately adjacent to the tents. Au alarm was soon spread, and the fire-engine was drawn to the spot, but there was a total absence of water. A number of the Victories, London Scottish, and Guards rushed to the place, provided with spades ►al pickaxes for the purpose of cutting trenches to stop the progress of the fire, but fortunately the wind was blowing in the opposite direction to the encampment. Lord Oche and Captain Drake were moos upon the spot, and by means of large boughs of furze, after considerable exertion, they succeeded in buffeting soot the fire. This service was done with a readiness and good will which proved the willingness of the volunteers to render any ser vice that might be required of them. It was not ascertained whether this fire was produced from the intones heat of the sun, but some were of opinion that a match or fusee had beau dropped by some one io piing over the common. The distribution of prizes will take place on Saturday at 3 o'clock. HEALTH OF LONDOE.—It appears from the return Unwed by the Registrar-Gesersl that 1,300 deaths wore retargeted in London in the week that ended last Saturday.

The mortality from measles continues high, but it has not awn-aged within the last two months. It was fatal in 81 cases in the week. the average for corresponding weeks being only 34. 84 of the 97 cases of diarrhea occurred to infants lees than two years old. There were 6 deaths from measles in the Poplar sob-district, and 5 in that of St. James, 13ermoodsey.

DEATH rum( CaLosoiome.—An Inquest wag held on Monday evening at Cambridge- place, Paddington, on the body of James Birch, 56 years of age, who expired in St. Mary's Hospital, while under the influence of chloroform, administered as • preparatory step to the performance of an operation. From the evidence, it appeared that deceased bad been admitted into the hospital in order that the hone of the great toe, which had become diseased, might be re moved. His wife stated that he had refused to consent to the administration of chloroform, but this was de nied on the part of the medical men belonging to the . hospital. Chloroform was inhaled, and in a short Sure afterwards the man was found to be dead. The post mortem examination showed that there was extensive disease of the heart, and the physician who administered the chloroform said he only did so with the greatest reluctence, and because be knew be had not the right to refuse. Th. corceer remarked that it should be some one's duty to determine whether a patient was fit to take chloroform or not. Hs had had to do with several cases of death from chloroform, and he found that there was a great deficiency in respect of rates and a system for administering it. The inquiry was adjourned in order that the attendance of Mr. Wall, the regular medical man of deceased, and Mr. Lau, the gentleman who was to have performed the operation, might be in attendees,. BRUTAL OUTRAGE ON A LADY.—A brutal assault was committed on Saturday evening, at Sandyholes, a piece of common lying at the back of Cement Nursery, Govamroad, G go w. Between ten and eleven on Satur day evening, Miss Margaret Addis, a young slady moving in most respectable society, and residing at Weymouth-terrace, Paisley-read, was returning from Govan, whither she bad accompanied a friend. While panting the common she was met by an Irishman, who accosted her. She pained co, but the man endeavoured to intercept her, and tried to catch hold of her. She put forth her utmost endeavours to escape him. Lltimately, however, the arailant succeeded in seizing her. She screamed as loud as she could, and endeavoured to force herself from his grasp, bat she failed, and the ruffian knocked her to the ginned, repeating the blows whenever she screamed, and telling her to hold her tongue. He then dragged her into a field of corn on the lands of Heathery. ball, and there attempted to oommit a criminal assault upon her. Shortly afterwards, while Mr. Thomas Leannonth, farmer, Middleton, and a friend of his from Edinburgh, were going along Ernst Loan-road, they met a woman and a boy, who told them to go down the road as quick as possible, and rescue a woman who was being abased by a man. They hurried towards the plain mentioned, when their attention wasattraeted to the field by beerier groats. They found anion, with his cloths disordered, lying beside or above a prostrate woman. Mr. Learmooth immediately seized him, and held him fut. The ruffian requested to be allowed to fasten his clothes. This was permitted, but while being led down the road, be struck and kicked Mr. Learmonth, endeavouring to make his escape. Mr. learmooth struggled manfully with the fellow, and ultimately threw him to the ground, and hold him fast till the county police made their appearance, whoa he was conveyed to the Police-office. He gave his name as Michael M•Glinebey, a labourer, residing at No. 12, Victcriastreet, Govan. His clothes and linen were found to be covered with blood. Mean while the injured lady had been assisted to her residence by two gentlemen from Ibroxholm, and was speedily attended by Dr. Smith, and others. The doctors found that Mims Addle had been subjected to thematic:reel treatment. her person haringbeen violated in a manner so brutal, that we do not feel at liberty to enter into details. Her face was a mass of wounds and bruises. There was • cut upon the forehead, in a line with the aces, three inches in length ; the bridge of her nose was fractured. sod the upper lip was cut through in two ' places. The doctor dressed the wounds, bat the aufortn. nate lady was so weak that they were doubtful whether or tot she would survive. He recommended that her deposi• tion should be takes. On Sunday manias this was done, aid dudes the day dim Addie, although still °minions, was in a very precarious condition. —Glaser Herald. ATTEMPTED MPRDEE AT NORWICH.—A rather serious attempt to murder occurred at Norwich oe Mouthy night. It opium that a woman weed Virtue Anderson, a servant living at the Club House Tavern, Old Post-office. yard, some time since cohabited with one John Hambiltos, &labourer. She had a child by Hambiltoo, which, however, died when three weeks old ; since that time the woman has been engaged as &servant. About seven o'clock on Monday evening Hiusbiltos went to the Club Hones Tavern and proceeded to • room where Anderson was engaged making pipe-lights. He called for a pint of porter, and asked her whether her mistress was kind to her and whether she was comfortably circumstanced. She replied that she was doing very well, and be then asked her to come and live with hint again, but this she refused to do. fiambilion then called for some more porter, and remained in the room some time with Aerie/sou, but had very little conversation with her. Sod denly he rose from his chair, went round the table to where she was sitting. sod seised her hand. He thee seized her by the neck and held her hank, at the same time drawing some sharp instrument acmes her neck. The wound in dicted was about two lathes in length. but was merely superficial, none of the muscles being divided. Had it been duper, the wound might have been fatal ; as it is, surgical insistence having been promptly rendere d to the injured woman, she Is progressing favourably. Hambilthe was taken into custody at en early hour yesterdsy moraine, sad was removed to the police station. On being told the nature of the charge against him, he sad, "Is Abe dead" aid on the police replying In the negative, he rejoined, " I wish she was." It should be stated that the woman is married, but bas been living apart from her husband for the past three years. Is the afternoon Flambilthe was brought before the magistrates, and committed for trial 018 the charge of attempting to murder the woman. ANOTHER ACCIDENT ON THE GREAT EAHTERN ItATLWAT.—An accident, providentially unattended with any serious result, occurred to the parliamentary untrain from Wells, on the Great Eastern Railway, on Saturday, the 16th hist. On During Fakenham, and Immediately before deecshding the steep inches which leads into that statios, the axle of the tender attached to the memo broke. The accident fortunately happened when the train was pulling up at the signal, and the only result was the stoppage of the Ilse for about as hour and • half. The passengers were trans. fared to the London down train, which meets the 1.40 front Wells, at ?Anthem ; the down passengers either awaiting the clearing of the line, or taking conveyance from the town to their destination.
