' • In •Angmt. 1851, the promoters of the Stibnaarine Telegraph formed themse'ves into a French Company (Socitee en Comman dite), and, at their ow•n risk, and wit • their own funds, established the telegraphic communication between Dniver and Calais. Ihe c4ble was laid down on the 25th September, 1851, and on the 13th November following the• telegraph was opened to the public for the transmission of messages, since which time it has worked ithc ut the slightest irregu'arity orinterruption. The feasibility of a h4thinarme Telegraphic communication having been thus -nccessfuliy proved, the promoters consider that the time has now arrived to Invite the public toe -operate with them in deve- lopi.,g the resources, and extending the advantages of this important undertaking. me folio - wing brief statement will show the actual position and prospects of the Saba arine Telegraph : A royal charter of incorporation having been obtained for the es tablishment of the Submarine Telegraph between England and France, it Ms been determined to surrender the same, in order that one with more extended powers should be granted, so aii to' suit the circumstances of the. Company, enabling them to establish a Sub marine Telegraphic Communication with Belgium and the, other parts of the Continent of Europe, in addition to France. The draft of this charter is now before the Board of Trade, and it Is believed that it will be finally granted at the next Prey Council. The capital of the French Company consists of 75,000 shares of 1/. each. This sum has,.been_expended in the purchase of patent rights; in securing the exclusive concession for ten years granted by - the French . Government, to take date from Ist - July, 1852; in previous experiments and In constructing, laying down, and perfecting the existing telegraph. • It is proposed that this property shall be surrendered for shares of a corresponding value in the Company now forming under the aforesaid extended Royal Charter. _ The promoters have also obtained an exclusive concession from the Belgian Government, and are assured of important privileges from other foreign Governments. The Charter of Intcorporati :n will unite these different conces sions and privileges, thus securing to this Company the exclusive right of telegraphic communication between Great Britain and the Continent. During the short time which has elapsed since the completion of the Submarine Telegraph the development of this mode of commu nication has been retarded by the delay and - expense incidental to the transmission of messages over the wires of otner Companies, the Submarine Telegraph'forming only one link between Dover and Calais, in-the chain of Continental-communication, and depending on other bodies at each end for the transmission of their messages. Notwithstanding . , however, the present very imperfect arrangements and unavoidably high charges, the receipts have, from the first day of ()Petting, stead.ly progressed, and are now sufli- tent, after de ducting all expenses, to pay, a dividecd of upwards of five per cent.' on the existing capital. of 75,0001., while the experience of the working has been such as to leave no doubt that the traffic will be at once immensely increased when the . proposed arrangements are carried out by which London. Liverpool,. and Manchester will be placel in direct and instantaneous communication with Paris, Havre, Marseilles, Brussels, Amsterdam, Thinaburgh, Frankfort, Berlin, Vienna, Trieste, Turin, Genoa,And all the principal towns of Europe. • .. In order to provide for the large accession of business consequent on these arrangements, and to secure, the telegraphic communication witirthe Continent aga'nst any risk of interrupti m, it is propose& to lay down a Second cable between France and England, and also one between Dover and Ostend, where it will be connected with the tele graphic systems of Belgium, Holland, and Germany. Responsible parties have undertaken to provide and lay down these new submarine lines of a superior construction, and with a suffi cient number of wires for carrying' Out - any amount of traffic that can be *anticipated, tor* the sum of 70,000/., to include all patent rights, and all preliminary and other expenses incidental to the Belgian and other concessions, which will become vested in this Company. The Charter will authorise the raising of a capital of 300,000/. to be employed in completing a perfect system of Submarine Te legraphic Communication between this country and the Conti nent; lay under the arrangements above referred to, not morn than 75,0001. of new capital, in addition to the 75.0 0/. already ex pended, will be required to carry out the objects in immediate con templation. The European and American Electric Telegraph Company being formed under the powers of the Act of Parliament in connection with this Company, the arrangements for completing the extension of the Submarine Telegraph to London, Manchester, and Liverpool, will be immediately concluded, when the French Government have undertaken to provide independent wires for the exclusive use of the Submarine Telegraph from Calais to the centre of Paris. In the course of a few months, therefore, the Exchanges of London, Liver pool. and 311. cheater, will be brought into instantaneous communi cation with that of Paris ; an 1 the same principle may be carried into effect with al! the other cities of commercial importance through out the Continent of Europe: An estimate of the vast extension of business ;which must follow such a devel potent of Telegraphic Communication, under a system of nio !crate eharges, may be arrived at by a consideration of the marvellous 7 esults which attended the introduction of the Penny Postage. The day of experiment with the Submarine, Telegraph has passed, and all, theret _re, which now remains is to afford every facility to the puhlic to avail themselves of an invention which is evidently destined materially to affect the interests of the Commer cial and Political World.

On areference to the map accompanying this .Prospectus, It will be seen that such communication commences irom the luyderzee, runs up the river Yessel, thence by canal to Zwolle, from which the Declares Canal • extenis as ar as Or Lmsbergen, within. a short distance cif the frontier town of Koevorden. Far the completion of the junction troth Gramsbergen to Keever deekthaxemlisite amount .has been voted by the local authorities, and the works Will be commenced simultaneously with those of tne canctiprojected by this Company. The preposed Canal wilt , 6:l' . from Koevorden to Meppen, a dii tance 0122 miles, making, when completed, a direct communication by canal of about 52 miles, whereby a distance of about 2.00 mites of tedinus and 'dangerous navigation will be sated to the shipping of Hanover, wh brings the timber and other produce of that country, and part of rsus4a, to the various ports of the Zuyderzee and other parts of the Netherlands. At Meppen, the river Haze, Which drains the south-eastern portion of Hanover, and the Lingen Canal, form ajunction with the Ems, which is navigable - as high as Monster. The total cost of the Canal frPm Meppen to Keevorden, including the purchase of the land tur the seat of the Canal, Is estimated at . ...

This is independent of the other important object in this adven ture, viz., the P.:.at Field, consisting of about 11,500 acres, now to tally neglected for want of mean. of out:et, which would immediately be provided by the projected Canal. . This property is situated within the boundaries ()Is the Dutch territory, and when the peat shall have been cleared, the surfaca will be available for ag,ricultural purposes, and readily saleable at 0/. per acre. , It was, therefore, natural to conclude that such a property, though now totally unproductive of profit, would acquire great value when the means of carrying the peat aq fuel to a good and sure mar ket were established ; and, in consequence, after pr ,tracted negotia tion with the numerous parties interested, a tract of rich freehold peat-field, reported to be of an average depth of 20 feet, and compris ing about 11,500 acres in extent, has been purchased on very advan tageous terms. . This enterprise is, therefore, no speculation founded upon the dis coveries lately made , in the properties or treatment of peat, but based upon the fact that peat is the only fuel prodneed in the country, and in general use. The custom of the country before working a peat field is to lift and burn the top sod, on which buck wheat is sown during five or six years, and the return is a net profit Of 41. per acre. This, on 11,500 acres, during five years, will give 46,000 i., or up • wards of 6,0001. per annum for seven years (two being allowed for draining), leaving the mass of peat to be dealt with as fuel, and after that the surface for agricultural purposes. With regard to the profit upon the peat as fuel, an average an nual sale in the following manner may be relied upon : florins, Thu r o o r y a l2 lt g y a p d a . paid r th d r a , g . u vr g h e r o k u t : e ll g o u l a l a l n t o d a b bo y t u h t e l s p . e p a e t r c t n o t n t , e o r f s N i v s ha 12 go to tne dagwerk. The sale of fuel will begin with the com mencement of the canal near Koevorden. The annual produce may be fairly estimated as averaging upwards. 47,000/. The promoters are perfectly aware of what has lately been done In the treatment of and with the products of peat: and, if it should be found that greater profit can be realised, by the adoption of any novel process than by an invariable everyday sale of the article, such advantages will not be neglected. The projector has obtained the umal conditional concession from the Governments of the Netherlands and Hanover, and will receive the definitive concessions immediately upon the necessary capital being subscribed. This Company is therefore formed u p on the condition that the projector shall transfer the peat field estate purchased by him, at - cost price; together with the seasons, drawings, detailed estimates, and other documents relating to the c anal. and the enterprise gene , rally..

Rain is much needed for the pastures, and spring-corn is being extensively used for feeding purpoies. Which.enables some advance on each article to be realised. Oats, especially,, are scarce, and in demand ; and there is an extended sale for Egyptian beans at somewhat aver late rates. There was only a moderate supply of wheat from our farmers'to-day; and. best samples were held firmly at 2s per qr advance, and 1s per qr was generally acceded to by our millers, who are for the.. mdst part rather bare of stock.

The. wheat plant is looking vigorous and well, and no weather suits it so well as dry. Spring sown corn and pulse will be affected if rain does not come aeon, but at present no injury of moment is spoken of. The week's imports of grain and flour are moderate, whilst there are good exports to Ireland and coastwise. There has been an upward tendency in the price of oats, oatmeal; beans, peas, barley;and Indian corn, during the week. Wheat and flour at full prices. At this morning's market we had a healthy demand for both local and distant consumption, and some purchases of American flour were made on speculation. The advance oh last Tuesday's quotations was general, viz., Id per bushel on wheat, 64 per barrel and sack on flour, Id per bushel on oats, 9d to Is per load on oatmeal, Id per bushel on barley, is per quarter each on beans and peas, and is to Is 6d per quarter on Indian corn. There is no indication of a change to moist weather. SPORTING NOTES. No. cexT. TIIE RACE FOR THE GUINEAS AND :THE FIELDS FOR TO,MORROW'S RACES AT NEWMARKET, &C. TO THE . EhITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—The rues for the Two Thousand yesterday was ;o the Ring generaly of a most startling character, for it proved CiOnd a doubt that all in the rear of the winner have not the shadow of a chance for the great event now approaching at Epsom. I was never more surprised in my life than by the result, as I (lid not for an instant entertain the idea that Stockwell was likely to prove the winner, especially after his performance in the Craven Meeting with Alcoran; the race, however, ex emplified the truth of Burns' words, that The best-laid schemes of mice and men gang aft aglie," for after Stapleton had made as good running as he could for half the distance, Stockwell went to the lore at an increased pace, cut out the work for the remainder of the dietauce, and won very cleverly by half a length. Iloinebrewed beat Films for second honours by a length and a half; Maidstone struggled home a bad fourth; and the pony of the north, Daniel O'Rourke, a worse fifth. Stapleton, Hoalakin, and Lapidist close together in the rear of Dan; Ambrose acting the part of whipper in, having been beaten all the way. The effect on the Derby betting was electric; Alooran advanced to 10 to 1, taken on the strength of his victory in the Craven week, over the Two Thousand winner, which, however, is a bad criterion to go by, as Stock well's form was four or five pounds at least better yes terday than on that occasion, and Stockwell to 10 to 1 layers. The whole of the field behind Stockwell was sent to the right-about at extreme outside figures, vari ous prices, from. 50 to 100 to 1, being offered against them. _ _ . - 13aicelona won the 300 Soya.

Stakes, D Jl.—Lord Orford's Alcoran, Lord Exeter's Stockwell or Ilex, probably the leiter; Houlakin, and Wingenund are very doubtful runners. The One Thousand this year is more than usually mysterious; Bay Rosalind, who, bad she been in form, in the phraseology of the Ring, could have walked away from the rest, having done but very gentle work for a long time past, can hardly be expected to beat her thoroughly-prepared opponents. The Toga filly stands no chance whatever of repeating Stockwell's feat for Lord Exeter. Glenluce is not up to the mark. Qua droon filly is very much fancied in the north, where she is set down as the absolute winner. Kate has been backed for a good deal of money by the metropolitan division, but, to my thinking, will not be a winner. In short, I expect that the best of Mr. Magenis's couple, or the Launcelot filly, will furnish the winner; and that Bag Rosalind will be well up. ALCOBAN of course will win the .100 Soya. Stakes, as Stockwell, it is said, will not ran against him ; and the match for 100 over the T.Y.C. will, I fancy, be carried off by the Palma filly.

The accident to Robinson proved to be more serious than was at first expected; his left thigh, left collar bone, and three ribs on the left side are broken, and his chest contused; it was feared, for a considerable time, that he had also received some internal injury, but reac tion having taken place, alt fears on'That bead -have been removed. Although going on as well as can be expected, his recovery is looked upon as very doubtful.

BROOME. ,Thektu.krupti who iyti§ A....pugilist and a victualler in the Ila#mirket applied for his certificate. . . Mr. Linklater supported; Mr. Cooke, for the assig nees, offered no opposition. Mr. SAYWELL, for Mr. Hutton, complained that shortly before the bankruptcy Mr. H uttont had sold the bankrupt brandy, which was to' have been for cash, but after the delivery of the goods no cash could be obtained. Upon the bankrupt being mot as he was about to go to the Metropolitan races, he again promised to pay the money; none, however, had been paid. Mr. Hutton and his clerk were called, and positively stated that payment was to have been made on delivery of the brandy. On the delivery being made the bank rupt was absent, and payment was promised in the course of the same afternoon. The bankrupt, on being examined, said that no men tion was made at the time of effecting the purchase that cash was to be paid on delivery. An offer of 103. in the pound had been generally assented to by his credi tors, but in consequence of a few of them declining to accept that rate of composition bankruptcy had been un avoidable. Mr. LINKLATER urged that the bankrupt had had a good prospect of success, but he had met with heavy losses. He was happy to state that Mr. Hutton, being now satisfied that the bankrupt had made a bona fide offer of 10s. in the pound, would not further oppose. His HONOUR said he considered the transaction with Mr. Hutton to have been one for cash, and he thought there was good cause for complaint. Having regard to all the circumstances, the certificate (third class) would be suspended for nine months. He hoped he would leave off the disgraceful practice of priz3-fighting, and he would observe that no excuse would ever be accepted in that court for the almost total failure of a trader to keep books. Protection from month to month was granted. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS, April_ 27. (Before Mr. Sergeant ADAMS, Assistant• Judge, and a Bench of Magistrates, at the Guildhall, Westminster.) Ann Scanlan, aged thirty, apparently a foreigner, vria charged with stealing a piece of silk, the property of John Monk. It appeared that several weeks back she went into Mr. Monk's shop and looked at a number of different arti-' cies. She selected a number of silks, shawls, &c.,to the value of about 201., and ordered them to be sent to No. 5, Lansdowne-villas. After remaining half en hour in the shop she left, and immediately afterwards the piece of silk was missed. The direction given by her was found to be a false one, but nothing more was seen of her till about six weeks afterwards, when she was appre hended, and was recognised at the police court by' the assissant at the shop who served her. Mr. RIBT ON, who defended, said the prisoner had re peatedly informed him that there must be a mistake, for she was not the person in the shop. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty. The ASSISTANT-J lIDGE-1 think you have been here before, for I am sure I remember to have seen your very interesting face before this day. The prisoner said it was a mistake. The ASSISTANT•JUDGE said, she had at any rate had 12 months at the Old Bailey, and as then berg; then was a slight ono they must have known something more against her. He had no doubt she was a regular shop litter, and he should transport her. The prisoner declared that her husband for 18 years was editor of the Observer nowspapt.r. He died very suddenly, being one morning found a corpse in his bed, and she was lett destitute. She was sentenced to seven years' transportation. Mr. PARRY, in the course of the day, made an appli cation to the Court referring to the late card cheating Rtraicnhsaarcdtiosnilaist, a solicitor, for obtaining, by threats andßrighton. It appeared that a bill had been preferred to the grand j ur y an d f ound by t hem a g ainst false pretences, four bills of exchange—namely, two for 1201, one for 2401., and one for 2001., from John Broome, for the purpose of compounding an indictment preferred against John Broome at the last Lewes assizes for cheat ing at cards; and he applied to have the indictment transmitted for trial at the Centr al Crimina l C ourt, as this Court, he said had no jurisdiction to try it. The ASSISTANT-JUDGE said, in that case it would go over as a matter of course. COWES, ISLE OF WIGHT. (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) FRESHWATER, ISLE of WIGHT.—D ESTRUCTIVE FIRE. —This village was nearly destroyed by fire on Monday, it broke oat about ten o'clock in the morning. Eight or nine houses very soon fell a prey to the flames, including the Red Lion Inn, a linendrapers, a grocer's, a baker's, and a carpenter's shop, stock in trade, furniture, and all consumed—all the work of an hour. Eleven weeks of cold, piercing, easterly winds has con verted what should be green fields into brown barren lands. The hayricks are fast disappearing, and water is becoming very scarce; vegetation is completely at a stand. DISEMBARKATION of GENERAL BOSAS. DEVONPORT APRIL 27. —According to previo us ar rangements, the ex-Governor of Buenos Ayres, General Roses, family, and followers, landed at the dockyard yesterday afternoon, where they were received by some of the principal officers of the esta bli s h m ent. Carriages were in waiting to receive the visitors, and they pro where ceeded forthwith to Ptloorshead's Royal Hotel, they are still sojourning. It is said to be the desire of General Roses to remain, at least for a time, in this neighbourhood, where eedca. yours are making to obtain a residene. D ur ing the voyage, Mr. Dryden, the paymaster of th e steamer, acted as interpreter for the General and party, as none of them speak English.

London and North-Westernswere done at 124 for next account. THE LONG DROUGHT.—Tbis is usually a summer word, but we must apply it to the absence of ra►n in any ap preciable quantity, for one of the longest periods in early spring that we remember. The heavy rains of January and February gradually subsided, the last wet day being the 18th February. From that period to the present, the num ber of days on which any rain, snow, or sleet has fallen may easily be enumerated. They are only the following seven : Inches.

A gelgian journal states that the Duke DE Lavcn-. TENDERG has just obtained from the Emperor of RUSSIA permission to come to France, and that his visit will take place at the commencement of the summer. • _ _ Prince JEROME BONAPARTE opened his saloons at the Luxsinbourg on Sunday evening, for the first time. • The reception was most brilliant and nume rous. A great number of the diplomatic corps were present, as were the President of the Legislative Body, the Vice- President ef the Council of State, and all the Ministers ; the Archbishops of Bourges, of Paris, and of Bordeaux ; most of the Senators, and a great number of the Legislative Body. Amongst the 'ex-Peers of France and ex-Deputies present were Duke Decaz,s, Ginned! Perncty, General Count St. Cavaignac, Admiral Btudin, the Marquis de Boissy, and the Marquis de Larochejsquelein. Amongst the foreigners of distinction were Prince Nicolas de Nas sau, the Duke of Brunswick, General Count Ester hazy, General Ribinsky, &c. On-Monday morning, at 10 o'clock, the wooden barrack of the pyrotichnic establishment in the Bois de Vincennes was blown up. It contained all the rockets..with stars intended for the fireworks of the 10th May, All .the workmen were absent at break fast when the explosion.took.place. It is said tolave been caused by the heating of the salts in the compo sition of the rockets, as they were not sufficiently neutralised. • The loss is estimated at 60,000 f. For some days past experiments have recommenced art Vincennes with the howitzer invented by . the Pittisda - Paesini4i' of the Republic. This new piece of artillery has produced still more decisive results than fit, (lid_ last year. The PRINCE intends to be present - at some of theMgis durin g the present we,4ls.___. A trial of a new carabine intended for the cavalry has also commenced at Vincennes. The Moniteue de Armee states that the hat at present worn by the gendarmery is to be before long replaced by the high rough-haired caps worn by the grenadiers: This change,. it i s sa id , will take pla t e , about the month of July. The following inscription is to be place in letters of gold on the coffin of the Zurznoa at the lava lides:— ".Napoleon Bonaparte, born the 15th August, 1769, chef d'escedron of artillery at the siege of Toulon, in 1793, at the age of 24; commander of artillery in Italy in 1794, at the age of 25; general-in-chief of the army of ' Italy in 1797, at the age of 28; he made the expedition to Egypt in 1798, at the age of 29; was nominated First Consul in 1799, at 30; Consul for life after the . battle of Marengo, in 1800; Emperor in 1804, at the age of 35; -' abdicated after Waterloo in 1815, aged 45, and died the sth May, 1821, aged 52." The Moniteur du Loiret, after giving the details of the approaching ceremony of delivering the colours to the army, says :—" The date of May suggests to us a curious reflection. On December 20, 1848, M. MARRAST, in the name of the National Assembly, proclaimed Louis NAPOLEON BONAPAETE President of the French Republic to the second Sunday in May, 1852. It was, then, on Monday, the 10th May next, that Louis NAPOLEON appeared &tally condemned to return to private life. But that is precisely the day on which will take place the military fete, the solem nity and brilliancy of which will be, as it were, a new consecration of his government. The long-announced opera of Le jay' Errant, composed by M: HALEY; and written by MM. Scams and Br. GEORGES, was produced at the Grand Opera on Friday, and the expectations of the public were in a great degree realized, for a more gorgeous theatrical spectacle has probably never been presented on the stage, and the music of M. HALEVY exhibits all that scientific knowledge, and command over the resources of the orchestra, for which this able composer is already celebrated. The , literary portion of the work is, leis happy ; though the authors have availed themselves of ,all the privileges of the improbable to an extent amounting to the im possible, a libretto of less interest or less imagination has seldom been published. The piece was, on the whole, fairly but not remarkably executed ; the best singing of the night was by Rime. TEDEMO, whose fine lower notes have been made admirable use of by fht.Evr. The choruses and orchestra performed their dutit.s unexception.. - thly, and on the latter rested a serious part of the weight of the representation. But the great clement of success is the scenery and magnificent style , in which the opera is placed upon the stage, the former displaying a series of perfect chefs If teuvre in scenic art, and the splendour and variety of costuutes, with the number of subor dinate figurants, filling up every picture in a manner at once so complet and so dra matic as to render Le Juff Errant one of the most remarkable pieces- ever presented to the public. One or two of the scenes would hardly be tolerated on thiEnglish stage. A representation of the day of with the vale of Jeosaphat crowded judgment is see'', with the souls of the departed, while the angels of death and judgment are heard calling the dead to re surrection• e are next introduced to the bottomless pit, w here countless demons are seen in full a c ti v it y pouncing on the condemned, and casting them into Gehenna, while angels and seraphs lead the just to the regions of eternal bliss, which are beheld in the distance.
