ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS. and This ou ghly Company is formed for the p urpose of purchasing thor working and developing the well-known Loeswood Collieries, near Mold, Flintshire, where an extra ordinary discovery of Cannel Coal has lately been made. The Collieries are, at the present time, in profitable opera tion, and considerable quantities of very superior Cannel Coal (upwards of 2 , 5 00 tons er month and sold at prices which lea ve p a large pro ) fitare being raised . The quality of gas pr o d uce d from the Leeswood Cannel is Nlual to that obtained from the well-known Torbane Hill Mineral, or Boghead, which realises so high a price (about 40. per ton) in Scotland.—See Dr. Fyfe's (of Aberdeen Report for comparative value of the Leeswood with this and other cannels. Contracts already exist with gas and other companies for Co tipwards r of 30,300 tons per annum of th e L eeswoo d C anne l sent al, thus aieings ensurin g a s a l e f or the whole amount of the pre this extent ; and additional contracts, to at least double can be directly the increased yield of the collieries will afford theyquisite supply. The present get and sales of Cannel Coal from the proved area alone ( w i t h out taking into account the other proved of seams abs) will yield for up wards of 20 years a certain dividend ve 10 making cent, on th e entire capital of £lOO,OOO, after g a liberal allowance for all possible expenses and contingencies (see " Statement of actual Itaisings, Sales, and Expenditure for January, February, and March, 1862"), but with the proposed additional pits, by an outlay not exceeding £lO,OOO, the amount raised will be more thin doubled, and the dividends increased in proportion. (See Re ports of Mr. MacCulloch, Mr. MacDougal Smith, and Mr. It. C. Webster, of Ruabon). The whole of the above statements have been thoroughly tested and verified by the Directors. Prospectuses in full, reports, statements of actual work ings, profits, &c., and forms of application for shares, can • be obtained at the Solicitors', Brokers', and at the offices of the Company, from whence they will also be forwarded free by post if required.

AN IMPORT AN T DISCUSSION.—The "Times," the "Lancet," and other leading journals have been lately canvassing the social considerations in volved in " the amount of death and disease caused by vice." some interesting statistics are brought to bear upon the inquiry ; but it would greatly add to their value if they in cluded the facts respecting the origin, the ravages, and the prevention of that SPECIAL VICE, which wars more than any other against the welfare of society—destroying the happi ness and disappointing the objects of matrimony, under mining the constitutions, blasting the prospects, embittering and shortening the lives of its victims, and spreading desola tion through families. - - The essential particulars relating to this great social evil (the besetting snare of inexperienced youth and the curse of maturity), together with ample instructions for removing its effects, and recovering health, vigour, and all the ennobling privileges of our being, are contained in Dr. LA'MERT'S " S ELF - PRESERVATION," a Treatise on Nervous and Physical Debility, of which the 90th Edition has just been published by Mann and Co., 39, Cornhill, London, price is., sent post free for 13, or in a sealed envelope for 20 stamps , Dr. LAWERT, M.D., &c., having for 20 years devoted himself entirely to this branch of practice, may be consulted daily, either personally or by correspondence, at his residence, No 37, BEDFORD -SQUARE, London. VENEZUELA BONDHOLDERS. A meeting of Vene - ,uela Bondholders was held this afternoon, to consider certain propositions for the arrangement of the debt—namely, that a new 6 per cent, loan should be granted for £1,000,000 at 63 to enable the Republic to obtain control over the Customs' revenues at present hypothecated to o th er creditors, so that 55 per cent. of these reve nues ma y be mad e over as special security both for th e new loan and the ol d debt, now amount i ng to a b out £3,500,000.

In consequence of this being the anniversary of her Majesty's Accession to the throne, their lordships did not assemble. HOUSE OF COMMONS—YESTERDAY. The SPEAXtit took the chair at 12 o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Lords' amendments to the following bills were con sidered and agreed to, and the bills were ordered for third reading :—Furness, Bull and Hornsea, Keighley and Worth Valley, Midland (Rowsley and Buxton Extension) Railway Bills. The South Yorkshire Railway (Sheffield and Thorne) Bill was read a third time and passed. POOR RELIEF (IRELAND) (No. 2) BILL. The house went into committee on this bill, resuming at clause 11. Sir E. GROGAN said that this was a very important bill, as it proposed to make a sweeping alteration by pro viding for a really non-destitute class. It was to effect this object by a charge on the rateable property of Ireland which he considered objectionable, and he concluded by moving an amendment to the effect that property used exclusively for religious or gratuitous educational purposes should be exempted from - the operation of this bill. After a few words from Mr. VANCE, Sir Ct. GREY said he had no objection. to the amend ment of the hon. member. The amendment was aimed to. On the clause, as amended, being put, Mr. P. IURQUItART moved its omission. Lord NAAS considered that property of every descrip tion should be assessed to the relief of the poor, and said that_in. two MIME In 'Dublin property to the Talus et £67,000 a year was not rated for the poor. - One of the largest establishments in Dublin, Trinity College, was assessed, and very properly, for the relief of the poor, and he saw no reason for the proposed exemption. Sir R. PEEL said he had no objection to the omission of the clause. After a few words from Sir E. GROGAN, and Mr BLAKE, Sir G. GREY said that the clause in its present form would only partially effect the object of the hon. member who moved the amendment, exempting a certain class of property from assessment to the relief of the poor in Ire land. The committee divided and the numbers were— For the amendment Against . Majority The clause was accordingly lost. Clauses 12, 13, and 14 were agreed to. On clause 15, which gave persons the right to hold pro cesses for Poor Law purposes for 10 years, Mr. SCULLY moved the substitution of five for ten years. After some discussion the committee divided— For the amendment Against Majority Lord NAAS suggested that the clause should be amended by enabling a person to hold 20 instead of 10 proxies. Sir R. PEEL said this was a very important subject. In Dublin one person holds as many as 2,000, and another 1,000 proxies, and he thought they should adhere to the limitation imposed by the clause, After some irregular discussion, in the course of which Mr. BLAKE moved an amendment, limiting the number of proxies to five, which he subsequently withdrew, the com mittee divided on the question that the word " ten" stand part of the clause— Ayes 9O Noes Majority —2B Mr. BLAKE moved the following amendment, to be added to the end of the clause :—" And that all persons exercising the privilege of voting by proxy shall, each time previous to availing themselves of it, make a solemn decla ration that they still hold unchanged the franchise on which it was founded." The amendment was negatived without a.division, and the clause was agreed to. • Several successive resolutions were agreed to, in some cases with slight verbal alterations. The sitting was suspended at 4 o'clock. At six o'doek the house resumed. Mr, LINDSAY, who had given notice that he would call attention to our relations with America, said it had been his intention to move a resolution affirming the expediency of recognising the Southern States of America, but having been advised to postpone the question, he deferred it till Friday, the 11th of July. THE "BRITISH STAR" NEWSPAPER. thC - 81115,PCITUI T , T .R7...tuevAd for ennios nf_ rorrofanomionre nn Foreign-office, of the British Star newspaper through the British Post-office at Constantinople ; and of articles alleged to have "excited revolt against the Government and laws of Turkey." He characterised the case as one in which the Government had violated a great principle enunciated by them. They had, he said, as far as they could, sup pressed a British newspaper owned by a naturalised British subject, M. Xenos, a Greek by birth, and his object was to extract from the Government an explanation of an act which he declared was a disgrace to the country. He gave details of the case, interspersing them with comments, vehe ment in manner, strong in language, and stronger in the meaning they appeared to convey. He expatiated at much length upon the abuses of the Turkish Administration, which, he asserted, was corrupt and rotten, a system of peculation and robbery; and upon the violation by the Porte of promises solemnly made to its Christian subjects, the most valuable portion of the population. Mr. LAYARD observed that the notice of motion was for copies of papers relating to M. Xenos and his news paper ; but Mr. naguire had travelled into matters for which he had not been prepared by the notice, and had even indulged in personal attacks. With respect to the British Star, its circulation had been prohibited by the Turkish Government on account of the inflammatory articles it contained, inciting the subjects of the Porte to rebellion ; the British Government, i therefore, could not culler M. Xenos to avail himself of the privilege given him by the British Post-office to circulate such matter. Ad verting to the remarks made upon bim by Mr. Maguire with reference to the Turkish loan, he said he would not condescend to deny such a charge coming from such a man. Mr. SCULLY moved that the words used by Mr, Layard —namely (as he understood), that "he could not be ex pected to answer such a charge, coming from such a man," might be taken down. Mr. LAYARD said the charge was that he had endea voured to "rig the market for the Turkish loan ;" such a charge against a gentleman, a member of Parliament and of the Government, he could not condescend to answer, coming from such a quarter. After some conversation, in which Mr. DISRANLI and Lord PALMERSTON suggested that the expressions were not Parliamentary, the latter observing, at the same time, that the remarks of Mr. Maguire were most offensive and un.- becoming. Mr. LAYARD said as the terms he had used were con• sidered unparliamentary he withdrew them. He then re. sumed his speech, replying to Mr. Maguire's strictures upon the Turkish Administration, the liberality of which he con trasted with the intolerance of a certain Christian Govern ment. Mr. BRIGHT said M.Xenos, of whom Mr. Layard spoke with so much contempt, had lived 14 years in this country ; he was a merchant of great respectability and a gentleman of education. He had not established the paper for pur poses of profit. He was an enthusiast for everything Eng lish, and his object was to enlighten and elevate the people of the Levant. His object was patriotic and useful, and he thought the Government were not justified in what they had done ; that their proceeding was harsh and unreason able, and that they had followed a bad example. The discussion, which was continued by Mr. Whalley, Mr. O'Brien, Mr. P. Taylor, and Mr. D. Seymour, termi nated in the withdrawal of the motion. ASSIZES AT OMAGH. Lord C. HAMILTON callad attention to a return and to the constitution of the Grand Jury panel of the late assizes at Omagh, and, stating in much detail the particulars of the case, inquired whether any steps had been taken to prevent the repetition of such conduct as occurred on that occasion. Major KNOX added further particulars with reference to the alleged improper and illegal constitution of the Grand Jury panel. Mr. M'MAHON argubd that if the facts stated by Lord C. Hamilton were true, the charge against the Sheriff and Sub-Sheriff of Tyrone ought to be formally investigated. 'lie made a counter-statement, from which he inferred that there was no foundation for the charge, and that inquiry was not really courted. He therefore moved for a sraecom mittee to inqui re i n to the facts. Captain ARCIIDALL, i n replying to Mr. M'Mahon, in r withdraw, co ntradicting an assertion of Mr. M'Mahon, employed an ex pression too strong ' and which he was required by the Chair After e to some remarks A arks by Mr. M'Cann, Mr. Newdegate, and Mr. Roebuck, Sir R. observed that if the accusation brought against the Sheriff or S • üb-Sheriff of tampering with the jury panel was true, it would have been better to bring the question before the house in the shape of a motion for an inquiry. The Government had nothing whatever to do with the constitution of the Grand or Petty Jury panel ; it would be utterly unconstitutional for them to interfere with the duties of the Sheriff. - 11 — 0 gave explanations of the occurrence complained of, tug that there was 10 reason / r Z ~~. THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENT to anticipate a repetition of it, and recommended that the motion should be withdrawn and the matter allowed to drop. After a long discussion the motion was, upon a division, negatived by 84-to 14. Mr. DUNNE called attention to the present state of the law with respect to lunatic asylums in Ireland, with special reference tea report of the medical officar of the District Lunacy Asylum in Maryborough. The house then went into committee., the CHAIRMAN reporting progress. The report of the Committee of Ways and Means was brought up and agreed to. The Merchant Shipping Acts, &c., Amendment Bill, and the Salmoil Fisheries (Scotland) Bilk were read a third time and passed. Other bills wcro forwarded a stage, and, after some fur ther business, the house adjourned at five minutes lefore one o'clock till Monday. .---c,. 6t.1 ...4d.

ASCOT RACES—FRIDAY. The fourth day of this very excellent meeting afforded one race more than any of its predecessors had done ; and a good company, far more limited of course than on Thurs day,"saw, under a clottdy sky, three contests decided by a neck only, and one dead heat. Three winners were claimed, but not sold by auction, such a method of adding to ample finances never being had recourse to at Ascot- The race for the Railway Stakes was an exhibition of very fine riding on the part of Fordham, whose horse seemed, at a short distance from home, unable to catch the leaders. The other events contained nothing of any great note, un lesswe wept the peance of Baffler, who ran away on Thursday and clear a turnpike gate, but ran second , on Friday, and claimed the winner_ The meeting may fairly be pronounced one of tho most successful on reco.a, the only drawback having been the dull weather, the ab sence of the Queen, and the closed shutters of the Royal Stand, even though more than one member of the R o y a l family were present on the Cup-day.

A long delay occurred, through the major portion of the field breaking away repeatedly before they could be got to the post, at last the signal was given and they were despatched upon equitable terms. On rising the hill the colours of Baron Munchausen, Lord of the Manor, Con fectioner, Olive Branch, and Lopcatcher were olearly dis cernible in the van, and shortly afterwards Lord of the Manor was seen with a clear lead, followed on the upper side by Baron Munchausen, Confectioner, and Clementi,with Olive Branch and Lopcatcher on the lower ground, the others,who were headed by Ripon, Overton„Quicksilver, and Cutler lying in a cluster two or three lengths in their rear. In this order they ran to the road, where Lord of the Manor dropped back, and Lord Chesterfield's colt went to the front, closely attended by Satellite and Confectioner on his whip hand, with Olive Branch, Clementi, Quicksilver, and Ripon lying up, At the distance Satellite went up, and in a few strides obtained a decided lead, which he held to the centre of the stand, where the leading horses were joined by Overton, who had gradually made up his ground. Fordham waited with great patience to the centre of the Queen's Stand, where ho put on the screw, and sent Over ton in the winner by a neck ; half a length separated the second and third.

Several of the crews who intend to compete for the various prizes have been in active training for the last month. Baines's (Lambeth) crew is generally admired for their fine and compact style of rowing. It will be remembered that this crew carried off two important prizes at the Putney Regatta last year, and also the principal prizes on the continent for the last three years. If in the same form on Monday week as they are at present, they are likely to carry off every prize they enter for. THE ACCIDENT TO THE METROPOLITAN RAILWAY AND TBE FLEET SEWER. Mr. Bazalgette, engineer to the Metropolitan Board of Works, accompanied by Mr. E, Cooper, resident engineer, Mr. Lovick, resident engineer, Mr. Hemmens, C.E., and Mr. Bateman, C.E., yes terday made an inspection of the injured portions of the Metropolitan Railway works, and of the Fleet Sewer adjacent. That portion of the latter which has fallen in ex tends for a distance of about 130 feet, and it was of course impossible to do more with regard to this than to make a close observation of the present state of things in clnnexion with the aspect of the wreck of the railway wall from the surface; but prepara tions had been made with a view to a minute inspec tion of the sewer running southward from the spot where the fall terminates. Double rows of lighted candles had been affixed to the sides of the vaults, and lamps had been placed at regular intervals along the floor where there is now no flow of sew age, owing to the stoppage arising from the fall. This gave to the otherwise dark interior a light and even brilliant appearance, and made the work of inspection one of comparative ease. It has been already stated that since Wednesday evening a temporary channel has been in course of construction commencing some seventy feet above the northern end of the fall, and terminating some fifty feet below its southern end ; and it was through the opening which had been broken into the side of the sewer at the latter to connect it with the new channel that the party entered. It was at once perceived that a crack about an inch in width ran along the crown of the sewer from this point right and left. Proceeding northward, this crack at first widened a little and then ceased, but just where it ended two similar craks com- menced running also along the crown of the arch, and After running parallel to eacn miler iur atm= ...La, distance these in turn came to an end, and were succeeded by a single crack varying in width from one to three inches, and presenting a threatening aspect, which makes it by no means desirable to linger beneath it, at the risk of being buried under the ruins of another fall. Further progress in this direction being stopped by the piled-up rubbish, Mr. Bazalgette and his party returned to the point at which they had entered, and proceeded southward. The cracks continued in this direction for about 20 yards, and in fact the roof of the sewer was shored up here as far as the extreme point of illumination, beyond which it was not deemed necessary to pro ceed, as the water from the overflow fell a short distance beyond this into a branch sewer which had been tapped for the purpose of carrying it off. It was, however, stated that the injury was exhibited in a form more or less decided along the whole course of the railway excavation—a distance of some three furlongs or so. It will be observed that all the cracks here referred to exist in the crown of the sewer, which is circular in form, and ten feet in diameter. The cracks could be discerned in the sides ; but since there could have been no escape of water through these cracks, except in the event of the vault being completely filled, it is consi dered probable that there may be other cracks in the bottom of the dam, which was covered with ooze, and that through these the water made its way, which it is presumed first sapped the foundation of the railway wall and then lifted it bodily •from its place, forcing its base from 10 to 12 feet out of its original position. In the opinion of the officers of the Metropolitan Board of Works the yielding of the sewer was owing to the disturbance of the adjacent and supporting soil by the progress of the railway works; and, indeed, the fresh appearance of the cracks, which are clean and unstained by dirt, as well as the white appearance of the cement, or mortar, all along the course of the different fractures, seem to justify this conclusion. With regard to that portion of the sewer imme- diately to the north of the fall, it is in so dangerous a state that it was thought unsafe for inspection, and no doubt is entertained that for some 80 or 100 feet, at all events, it will have to be reconstructed. This will also be the case with the southern por tion, but to what extent it is not yet possible to say. It should be known that while the officers of the Board of Works trace the injury to their sewer to the operations connected with the con struction of the railway, the company and the contractors retort that the damage done to their works arose from the original faulty construc tion of the sewer itself ; and there is consequently talk of actions and cross actions on both sides. With an eye to legal proceedings, photographic artists have been engaged taking a series of views for the respective parties, so as to show to a jury or juries the exact position of the wreck, and perhaps aid them in arriving at a conclusion upon which to found a verdict. The damage to the railway itself may be repaired for £5,000 or £6,000, but if the cost of repairing the sewer be added, the amount must at the least be doubled. It was anticipated on Thursday that the new c hannel would be completed and the course of the sewage diverted during the night. And this would probably have been the case had it not been deemed advisable to strengthen the channel by pili ng, boarding-flooring, and shoring, so as to enable it to carry securely any quantity of storm water. As now executed Chi.: work will, of necessity, last for years (under ordinary circumstances), and by non to -day the sewer will most likely be tapped north of the fall, dammed immediately after, and so the whole body of the sewage 'will be forced through the new channel, and re -conveyed into the sewer proper after a somewhat devious course of about 600 feet. A considerable portion of the inundation will then quickly drain uff the line, and the six feet in depth which will remain, the railway being six feet below the sewer, will, it is expected, be pumped off in about 48 hours, as was the e ase w ith th e w ater of a similar inundation some nine weeks s i nce . No apprehensions are entertained of any further serious damage to-the railway, but a further fail of the sewer may take place at any moment. COURT OF CHANCERY.

Many anticipated the defeat of Lord Pahnerston, who, with all his popularity, could not, they thought, resist the combined assault of Tories, Ra dicals, and " economists." Others, and these were few, were convinced that he would weatiller this storui ; as he has already weathered so many others. But neither the many nor the few could conceal te7leir admiration at iL9 masterly manner in which he ti e feated his opponents. Among the latter is the . writer of the chronique in the ,hievue des Deux Mondes, who, after relating what iook place that evening, when Lord Palmerston prev cos d Ns own amendment, " which involved the existence the Cabinet," goes on to say .. (;v a e l r n t l h er ro t w the Ministry, Bewildered his proud declaration threw the Tories into confusion., and hesitating, Mr. Walpole stantmcreo and said that Lord Derby and his friends had no intention. to Then followed a see .e ulversaries of the Cabi of the t net.

His very adversaries, and they are not few or very tender, are forced to pay him this homage ; they oven say that the mere perusal of his speech cannot give ay just notion of the vigour of his discourse, and that to appre- • ciate it as it ought it should have been heard. No ors`c equal to Mr. Disraeli in struggling with a stout hek'rt against ill fortune. It is in desperate situations that ha' most surpasses himself. Like these Generals who never have more clearness and przlsenee of mind than in the heat of battle, it is in moments of confusion and di pointment, when others are completely discouraged, that the resources of his tale nts are most d_isplayed. Ho must have been that night in the vein which ho has described in one of his novels, which , in fact, describes I,:inaself, when . lyrism and irony are uppermost:in him. when tho evenyoxica tion, of wild linghter gets iuW his , takes Jiro imagin a ti o n comical grimaces, when` h e most brdin when 'Freaky. turns himself and all about him rots ridicule. AA`ter an opening very firm, verfgrions, and a little philosophic • when he explained with elevated reasons the true causes of the greatness of England, his gaiety 'commenced. Ho played with the long drawn out figures of the budget like a juggler, he tore to pieces in the most amusing mt.:3ner, while throwing right and left every sort of caricature, the motion of Mr. Stansfeld, the amendments of the other rainbow, and that of Lord Palmerston. His last sketches, the most , comical of all, were reserved for 11. - !.s lieutenant, his candid friend, Mr. Walpole. Calling to min t :l all of a sudden that the following was the Derby day, ho wished that his auditors should not experience the same disappointi, - .lent which ho himself felt, and that their favourites should nOt bolt. In any other country such a scene, crowned with so' gallant an harangue, would be equivalent to the breaking %I of a party. We hope it will net be thus in England. On tha eve of the Derby, when the favourite horses disappo3ntecT so many people, the amusing ill-humour of Mr. Disraeli against Mr. Walpole could be treated with indulgence. Al la' all, the'gaiety of Mr. Disraeli wa s more amusing than venom ous. It exhibits one of' the features of the strong and origi nal individuality with all the charm of talent, as well as a great self-command and an invincible energy of resolution. Lord Palmerston and Bin Disraeli en the two Most curious 'figures in the English Parliament. This Tory party will not abandon the leader to whom it owes its re - o rganisation and its progress. As a matter of course the real question atissue disappeared in this strange skirmish. The English have a horror of discussing in their Chambers what t he y ab stract ' amm:slm ent, street -questions. The motion of Mr. Stansfeld, no longer supported by the prospect of Mr. Walpole s had the unpardonable fault of being mer el y an abotract question. Behold, then, Lord Palmerst on in all the triumPlL of a vote of confidence, which the Opposit ion did not die,- pute with him, and, according to M r. Bright, Dictator for' some months. Nevertheless, th e q uestion of armaments and economy is not for ever ii 2terred. Lord Palmerston must introduce some in the next 13Adget, otherwise he will have to account with determined Overgaries• Meas Disraeli, Bright, and Cobden are not m en to give up for f°r a defeat. While Mr. Disraeli brough t the. question be ,Parliament several weeks since, Mr. Cobden ,raised it in tho press with his elaborate pamphlet, The ThreePaMes,which M. Xavier Raymond, himself a master on the question of armaments, has translated for the great advantage of the French public. The coalition, for which the Tories were not prepared a few evenings since, is always possible for the future. Mr. Bright and Mr. Cobden have majci significant advances in this sense. In the curious atting of the 3d of June one of them dec lared that ho v4s ready to vote for the judicious' motion of Mr. WolVie• The other repeated that he had acted wisel„v in reuiaming neuter be tween the Whigs and Tories, a.d acce pting free trade from the latter. It was equivalen t to st;ying that economy be p re ferable to with a Tory Ministry appeare d to him to armaments with a Liberal Cabinet." WILLS AND BEQUESTS.
