To reclaim and dispose of this valuable land is the object of this Company. • , The necessary powers for this purpose have been granted by a con session from the King of the - Netherlands for the term of 99 years, commencing from August, 1851. The concession provides that in a spacse between two given lines the Company may recover and enclose land to the extent of about 35,000 acres. The extreme importance of this undertaking attracted the atten tion of the Emperor Napoleon, and a barrier nearly identical in situ ation and purpwe with that intended by the present Company was planned by him, but the decline of the empire prevented the execu tion of the project. The yiequaci of the proposed works to the eostemplased result bas been iniestiga ed by Sir John Rennie, me Engineer 4, f the Cum ' Pany, whose'report will be found ann xed, The matter ha, likewise been examined by Mr. A. Greve, the engineer of the Waterstrast in Holland, under the Luthority of ,he Mini ter ot the In crier • by Mr. Joseph Locke end Mr. George Rennie, of Lonclia ; an 1 MOGUL Themmen, ce Zcalan 1, at tne re- Vest of the iom -tees of th , Company and ri ports have bees .

Contrauts have been entered in o with respon ible English con tra( tors for he exe. alloy of the work , at sa h prices as will secure the re-lamationhf tie la , d at about 201 per acre. The • works will be commen , e 1 at once, and it is condd ntly ex ntc!ed that 4,000 acres e ill be ready for sale Li* cultivati n eluting the present yeas ; in 1853 a flintier ex ent of about 5,000 acres on the Bergen op Zoom side of t f eri • er will be stm , larly encl , ,set at later periods, eaccessive portions of about 2,500 acres will be an nually enclosed, until the reclamation of the entire 35,000 acres shalt have been completed. In no part of Holland are the alluvial deposits found to be sf so rich and so valuble a quality as in this province of Zealand; and Kis affirmed with certainty that such lands will bear crops' for 29 years in succession, without the application of manure. • In the immediate neighbourhood of the Wended reclamationeand ilOselo the small town of Bath, a considerable amount of land has been acquired by a similar process, and cannot now be purchased at 701. per acre. Alluvial land of precisely the same description as that conceded to the company, situated at Saeftingen, on the borders of the Western Scheldt, was lately sold by auction in Zealand by order of the Dutch Government, and realised about NI. per acre, subject to the addi tional charge of constructing the necessary banks or dykes (estimated at 101. per acre), making the price in reality at least 601. per acre ; various proprietors of lanes on the borders of the Western Scheldt, whose lands are worked by themselves, are now receiving a net evenue of 81. per acre. The expenditure u to the pe iod, and inclusive of the first reela . maths , of 7,500 acres, will not exceed 150,0001., and it is eap .cted that an amount of property wilt b ther .by acquired sufficient to ndemuify the shareholders for the capital then aavauced. and leave a large balan:e for the prosecution f the remaining works. The subsequent reclamation of the remaining , 27,500 acres, ex tending over a period of ten or twelve years, will furnish the means of division. of a large bonus from time •to • time among the share hol Oat of the net profits of the Company a dividend at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum will be paid to the ehareho ders on the capital expended and the residue will be applied to th redemption of the capital, and to a divislm in the sh,pe of bonus in trie following mariner, viz.: 4-6 to the shareholders, Y-6 to the pro ,•nlotere, and to the concessionaire, who has ceded his rights to the P resent Compa - y. In selling the lands provision has been made for the convenience ,of shareholders who may desire to become purchasers, that their shares may be taken in payment of the purchase money at par, or at the price of the day. . The required caution money has been paid to the Dutch Govern %lent. A considerable portion of the capital has been subscribed for tin . the continent. - After the payment of the deposit, no further call will be made of larger amount than 10 per cent., or at shorter intervals than three • Months. APPlications for the remaining sha res ma y be addressed; to th e Offices of the Company, 46, Moorgate-street, and to Messrs. Cannon and Pelly, stockbrokers, 26, Tokenhouse-yard. • REPORT OF SIR JOHN RENNIE, London, 14th April, 1852. • Gentlemen,—At your request I have examined the diStrict of laud, conceded by the Dutch Government to Mr. Dirk Dronkers, of Middleburg, comprising an extent of about 35,000 acres now co ?bred at spring tides. - The feasibility of reclaiming this . valuals'e district attracted the no .. tle.e.of the Emperor Napoleon, and a company was proposed to be mimed for that purpose. In 1846 Mr. Rennie saw it, and the idea struck him. and be repOrted accordingly. Dirt-Locke, - elite - Mode a repert to a similar effect, Its fact the .perfect Of the measure cannot be doubted, and the only questions to be considered are— • me cost o f reclama'ion. z The value of the land when reclaimed. ,L lV ith regard to the first. The expense of reclaiming the landmay - divided into two parts, viz , the works of the canal and barrier, and the additional sum regained to gain the land. _ consider the expense of reclaiming the land, including the canal ....tore g we d a : he r d ri u er p ,. will amount to abut 201. pee acre. And if the land be „ recervered, and the proceeds applied to further reclamations, "u‘blY only one-half of the proposed capital of 50„0001. will ever regard to the second. It appears from the report of coin * P7rdist,:f7t6h:ritles, that the land when recta med will ,be extremely r u able, and may be cultivated so as produce a profit of tip per acre English per a , num ; in order, hoWever, to !!!timaM its real value, it will be better to-take the selling price of rite day ; frem this it appears that on the 16th March last, at a pub ec sale at Hoist, in Zealand, by order of the Dutch Government. sonic nnreclaimed lands similar to those conceded to the Company An!sold for 501. per acre, and if to this be added the cost of ern nent the price would be nOl. per acre. A s suming, therefore, the value of the lands of the Company, when Z e ,., l4 : _ i nted, viz , 35,000 acres, at 6 0 1. per acre. the whole would be worth 2 ,100,003/. Now it appears that there are 7,500 acres fit for sim ultaneously reclamation, which may be commenced and carried on with the canal. 4,000 acres of this quantity may be gained this season at a cost of 150,0001., Oncluding the works of the canal to that period. The 4,000 acres taken at 601. per acre would be ii, 40,000/. ; and if more land can be reclaimed this season , which Is not t 40,0001 the amount will be proportionably increased. Next see n a similar amount.of land may be obtained with alike result ; and at each succeeding year an additional quantity of land would be reclaimed until the whole quantity concede f has been completed. s t PPc'stng, however, the land net to be sold, but to be cultivated for the benefit of the Company, then, taking the net profit of 61. per acre according to the Flemish .valuation, there would be a revenue of ..2 0 . . 000 1. per annum ; and, unlike many other enterprises, the return ld commence when only 'one-third of the capital has been expended. Making every allowance, therefore, for contingencies, it appears that there is just ground for expecting a profitable return On - the capital. .7; 0 I am, gentlemen, your humble servant, JOHN - RENNIE.

I con sider it a proud day to myself to be permitted to express in the best terms I am able my congratulations to the royal personage who has this day honoured us with his presence, and who has thus complimented the city of London, with which be has been for so many years con nected. That illustrious person is connected with two of the great corporations of this city, the prime wardens of which I have the honour to see before me, and I con gratulate him further on being descended from a prince whom we all revere and honour. I ride you then to join me in drinking the " Healths of his Royal Highness Prince Albert, Albert, Prince of Wales, and the remain ing branches of the Royal Family, including our illustri ous guest, the Duke of Cambridge."

At the same time, I would be ex tremely grieved to be wanting in respect to your Lord ship and the company if I neglected to express to you the sentiments I entertained towards the Lord Mayor of this great city for the compliment he has. paid me, and the manner in which he has referred to me. I feel ex tremely flattered that he has done me the honour to in vite me on an occasion such as this. I feel flattered, be cause I see around me members of her Majesty's Go vernment and many distinguished, foreigners who grace your Lotdship's table.

I trust that that amicable and satisfactory state of things will long continue, and I have only to assure your Lordship that it affords me, as one of your suhj cots in- this city—(Cheers)—:he greatest sati4fec tion to join with you in doing honour to those distin guished-foreigners whom I see at this table.

Whatever service the navy may be required to perform it wilt always per form with zeal and energy.—(Cheery.) Since we last met in this hospitable hall, the Arctic expedition, fitted out by this country, hes departed from our shores under the most favourable auspices, and R ith the most fervent wishes for its :muss, not only of this but of the me. t clistent ceuntries. This country can never forg‘et the ineneer in which the *United S..ates fitted out an exec dition to assist in the search for Sir John Franklin, and I must leave it to my excellent friend the American Minister to express to the people of that country of which he is so worthy a representative the sentiment which we all felt in this metropolis and throughout the country at the generous exertions they then rendered. —(Much cheering.) But this is not all. We have on the part of France in that expedition a gallant young French officer, who is wilting to participate in the fa tigues and the dan c ers.—(Cheers.) With such feelings of sympathy, with such demonstration of good will, we may hope that this friendship will continue, and that we may enjoy a long protracted peace.—(Cheers.) But there is another and more painful subject to bring before you —the melancholy loss of the Birkenhead steamer, where we shown the manly and characteristic conduct of our officers and men.—(Loud cheers.) There the officers, the soldier., and the sailors were distinguished al ike for their discipline and their courage. They first secured the women and the children in the boats in safety, and then, with the most perfect order and regularity, exerted themselves to the last. We can well admire the beauti ful discipline, the undaunted courage ' and the self• sacrifice, and the absence of any selfish feeling through out this perilous time.—(Cheers.) In every well-disci plined ship, as in every well-ordered regiment, in this country—and wo are only reminded by them of what occurs in the hour of danger, and of what is said on the day of battle—every man behaved like a hero, on whom the dignity sad honour of his country depended.—(Cheers.) Lord COMBERMERE said ,--I have the honour to re spond to the toast that has been given on the part of the army. I regret that it has not devolved upon some one more fit to do justice to it, particularly in the presence of so many great orators and able statesmen.

The Emigrant like wise saves mach valuable time by selecting his Outfit at E.

The toast w3.s drunk with considerable enthusiasm. The Eitd 0f 13E7 113 — i:in rising to respond to the toast, was received with loud and. prolonged cheering. On - silence being Teetered, the4Noblb Earl said : My Lord Mayoe, Lord:, Ladies, and .Gentlemeu, it is peculiar, not only indeed to this country, but to all constitutional Governments,, 'that more or less of politics intermingles with our every -day coneerntr, meets us at every turn of our.dornestie life, and even necessarily encroaches some what upon those hours of social enjoyment and inter course during which public men aro still subjected to a species of responsibility, - and during which and through which companies such as that -which I have now the honour of addressing have the means of exercising an unofficial but not powerless influence to control,' to encourage, to excite, and to reward those 'who may be engaged in the honourable and laborious duties of performing the services of their country.— (Cheers.) I own, my Lord, that this distinguished com pany have exercised that influence to-day in the most gratifying manner; first, by permitting us to be partakers of that magnificent hospitality for which this great' city has been so long and so eminently distinguished, and next by the flattering manner in which you have received the health of ellen who are desirous, in the si tuation in Which the favour or their Sovereign has placed them, of faithfully_ discharging the at - dawns. rhea s which that favour has imposed upon - thern. To obtein" this sympathy and this approval, it is not at all neees.; ' sary that there should be, upon the part of those whom I now address, a uniform concurrence of opinion or agreement with.regard to the details of every measure, or even the great outlines of our policy. But I have this confidence in the generosity, in the good feeling, and in the love of fair play of my countrymen, that even, if they differ from us,. they will,not withheld the meed of their approvia and, of their, support, so long as they believe neee be actuated -by honest motives and actinl to the best of our abilitius,—(Chersiy amongst the many gratifying circumstances connected with this assembly, not the least is to see so largely, and I may add, so fairly represented here, those foreign na tions who now are happily - in 'amity with this country, and to maintain the most cordial relations of amity and friendship with whom is the declared and avowed policy of this, as it ought to be the policy of every Government of this country.—(Loud cheers.) We accept their pre sence here, not as a compliment, however gratifying that might be to me or to any of my colleagues in our personal and individual character, but we accept it as a :nark of adhesion to that phlicy which professes an ab solute and entire non-intervention with the internal affairs of all other countries, and out determination also to leave unexhsusted no effort, if the case should arise, by friendly exertion and by friendly interposition to pre vent the possibility of the disturbance in any quarter of the world of the general peace which now prevails.— (Cheers.) My Lord, it may be that in various portions of the world there are elements of internal discord, and elements which may threaten the spreading of that dis cord beyond their own boundaries, to defeat the best in tentions of the most peaceful states. Ido not believe — I do not venture to hope,that we are 'arrived at that Utopian period when any nation can safely or justifiably.. deprive itself of the means' of internal organization for its own national defence; but this I do believe, and of this I am confident, that throughout Europe and throughout the world, there is a general desire upon the part of all' nations to extinguish at once the :lightest spark which may appear to threaten external convulsions, or en. danger the general peace—(Cheers.) Of this I am sure, that if there be an appearance of hostilities or of angry feeling arising in any country, the exertions of all countries will be used, not, as in less enlightened times, to fan the flame, in hopes of obtaining some remote and individual advantage, but to pat a friendly extinguisher upon the first elements of the strife, to interpes3 for the 'prevention of misunderstandings which might at any time arise; and I am quite confident that if, without provocation, any one power, either through the miscon duct of its own Government or the pressure of its own people, should be so unwise as to meditate a hostile and unprovoked aggression, . that power would be met by the unanimous reprobation and remonstrance of the of the civilized world. lam confident also of this, my Lord, that there is an enlightened. feeling arising now among all Governments, and among all nations—that there is a growing conviption that their interests , their honour, their real glory, may . 1)6 better promoted by de veloping the internal resources of their country, by fostering the domestic industry of their people, and ,by promoting the internal wealth and prosperity of their subjects, than by any 'dreams of military glory, however brilliant, or by sty - prospect of 'aggressive cotiqriests, however dazzling to the imagination.--(Cheers.) My Lord, at this moment, if I may happily illustrate ia—at this moment we are engaged with a grea't and powerful neighbour, whose military prowess all the world ac knowledges, and of whose prowess we have ourselves had great experience—we are engaged, not in those hostile armaments which have formerly _ deluged the world in blood, but we are engoged in a nnited effort, by united councils, in endeavouring by peace!Ol negotiations to extend, not for our own individual advantage, but for the benefit of the world at large, the sphere of useful commerce through the interior of the vast ()eminent of South America, and in this peaceful effort our councils are undivided. Our plenip . otcr t arics are indeed dif ferent in persnn; but th© instructions on which they proceed, and the spirit with which they are animated in this peaceful mission is essentially and unequivocally one and the same. My Leal, I feel thdt, for ail the world, for the promotion of peace, and the general good of the world, the cordial union of all nations in the advancement of commercial- intercourse is a matter of primary importance; but if it be so to other na tions, most of all must it to so to this, with whom great manufacturing and commercial power is so large an element of that greatness to which a long series of years has enabled us to attain. "My Lord, not many days have elapsed since a Right Honourable Friend of mine, in a speech which fully and amply re• futed the unworthy notion that a man of wit and genies cannot grapple with the ordinary details of statistics— (Cheers)—that because a man possesses abili!y, imagi nation, and eloquence, therefore he cannot muster the driest commercial and financial topics—in that speech my Right Honourable Friend the Chancellor of the Ex chequer most ably and most eloquently demonstrated to an admiring. House of Commons the great progress and the great extent which our trade end commerce had made ie recent years, and showed bow the reduction of duties imposed upon foreign commerce had produced a largely increasing consumption, and, consequently, largely increasing enjoyment on the part of the - con sumers, w ithout affecting the revenue, notwithstanding that reduction of duties. sty Lord, there_ was one point, however, which my Right Hon. Friend., in that able speech, did not touch upon—and properly did_ not touch upon—because it did not belong to the fiscal and financial branch of the subject to which his att_en . ,t n ie! was then properly and exclusively devoted. Ile r d c la c , , e' . _: touch upon another topic, but it is one, ne o vf . _ta ie i which no Government ought to lose sight tin cf the esti mating the real social and political condition ..and the country, namely, not only the pro.T.etriwq whit find wa y be ad vancement of commerce, but the cff we sn : y find those produced on the condition in which . went ., are yet corn largo classes. which, uno onnected ei a r lth d cent ma i n ly pro u 9 an element of our strength, as b My Lord, a G over n. ti mers. _ though they the affairs of went charged with deserve a the confidence of anyper latllrteheenedasinistration of this country, would ill tion of its fellow-country men, e attent i on which is due to all; if it confined to the inte rests of a single class the ially or if it deprived a single cla lr ss t of thatto diffuse share of all; over its at tention which it is boundimp, Governinent h in as ter t e o st s s o , Iv a : and the problem which ever y i s —how to reconcile apparently oonfhoting as that, giving no undue advantage to one class, of our fellow-citizens over another, ist.maypromote the interest of each, and by m utual concessions and mutual compro mi,Ts blend the inter e s ts of all in one har monious whole. (Cheers.) My Lord, in fact the whole system of govern ment in every constitutional country is a system of com promises and con cessions—not of u n d ue compromises, , not of unworthy concessions—not of compromises of prin ciple f o r .the s ake of expediency,. but comp rom i ses be tween co /Acting expel tents, and mutual concessions be tween a pparently diversified inter es t s . —(Ch eers.) The who l e system of our constitution is one great compro mise. The throne itself is ba se d on a compromise be tween arbitrary and monarchial power, and.those befit ting and dignified restrictions which are imposed by c onstitutional Governments upon the mightiest monarchs. Our House of Lords is a compromise between an here ditary exclusive aristocracy and a body partaking of the advantages of the institution of a nobility, at the same time that it is enabled to claim this great advantage that it is daily, at least yearly and perpetually, recruited from the ranks of the people, thus blending the aristo cracy and the commonalty- together. The House of Commons is a system of compromise between that in fluence which is exercised by the higher c l asses o f so ciety and the restrictions imposed by partial exclusion between those elements on the one side and the demo cratic power of the people on th e other, by which ample and full means are given to the full and free expression of every popular sentiment and of every public opinion. 'The Church of England,' anti long may preserve it to us--(Cheers)—i Providence 6 a compromise between the unrestricted power of spiritual dominion and. the ab solute dependence of the clergy upon the caprice of the flocks over whom they were called to preside. Your whole system is a system of hompromise, and he best adrninis tera the arduous post of conducting the greet and com plicated affairs of this great empire, who knows how fitly to adjust together the various portions of the great ma chine, it volving the - complicated machinery of mutual checks and balances, which, it you remove one, the action of some of the other parts may perhaps be more rapid, but the w h o l e machine may be broken into dis order and disarr angement. M y L or d , it w ould be an easy task for a m i nister to ava il hi mse lf on every occa sion of every gust of popular opinion to send before . the gale, and to congratulate himself on the rapidioty.oont thatilx .. progress; mindless or reckless in ItimatclY gale is blowing, whether it is beseiegth whit himci tre u ti o more upon a lee shore or a daegercus rock w_l o _ ress on w hich cer tain destruction the more rapid j ar 1 1l 5 t h e _higher he is ni,ng - ratiilating —himsei'• mast: feel that and nobler sense of statesmanshipju the . valuable .. to use the popular ener gy, your course• in the breeze that fills the ,sails* not setting . or ' ecudtlin blindly be teelh of 'he wind OM NW, fore it, but availing yourself of the& to speed you on your deatined course, and, with a steady hand at the wheel, and with a heart and an eye fixed tea upon one single object, the safety of the good ship, fie crew, and the priceless ergo—considering not theeradidity - of your progress, but the certainty of the course you are pursuing, and if there be less rapidity by the skill and application of the doctrine of opposing forces, should the wind blow from the north or south, with a ateitdy hand at the helm to speed the vessel on her destined course whether that course be east or west---(Cheers.) My Lird,4., it is well known that such a course is-not that which at all times will secure to the Minister who pursues -it the greatest amount of momentary or ,po pular applause; but I have that opinion of my country men that I am certain they • will more consider the sten niness of the course they are pursing than the rapidity of the progress which they appear to milky. They - will look to the object which the Government has in kand, and if -thew see them proeetd in their Tam course stea dily and determinedly, availing themselves, - no doubt, of papules. favour, but neither courting *nor blindly following the passions of the moment, in the long run I am convinced that the Minister acting in, such a course, even if he should, at the time, partially fail,. he will obtain the approval, and, ultimately, ' the long-lived confidence of his countrymen.—(Cheers.) My Lords, I may have chalked out for myself and my colleagues a bold and an arduous task—l know the dif ficulties which in this and any country attend the faithful discharge of public duties, even at the risk of some times endangering popular feeling; but I am convinced that any Minister is unworthy of the confidence of this country who does not act upon his own convictions, and I trust that the sincerity of these convictions will in the long run force themselves upon the sympathy and sup port of the people. We may fsel that we have an ar tiuous tatk before us, but we shall not lail from the want of a clear perception of the course we ought to take, or from a clear appreciation of our duties or of our difficul ties, but we may fail from causes not within ours oven control; but it we should not fail, and if in any degree we' can preserve the confidence and support of this great - country, it will be our proudest/10p% as it . istitilboldeat. and highest ambition, that when we cease to hold this °Moe, which the favour of our Sovereign and the'con fidence of the people has entrusted tons, we may trans mit to those who follow us unimpaired that glorious inheritance which we have received of the freedom of 'the British nation, and the safety, and honour, and wel fare of the Sovereign and her dominions, and that we shall leave England as I trust we find her, an object of attachment and Love to her own citizens, and I trust also an &lea of admiration and friendly respect to those as -tiassanfihkeitdiaed_weret with whom we desire on all occasions to maintain the most cordial it re lations.—(Loud cheers.) - In my own name and in that of my colleagues permit me most gratefully to return youimplore m y thanks a t i o d r t n h e fo h r o n n a o v u i r n g y o b u e h e a n ve led don t e o u e s, ner an o d ee to h much further than I intended upon the fa vour and pa tience of this great assembly. Th e Noble Earl resum ed his seat amidst loud applause. The next toast proposed by the Lord Mayor was that of the foreign atobassvdors, the health of his Excellency Count Wale% ski, the French ambassador, being coupled with the toast. ' Count WALEWSKI, in returning thanks, spoke in French as follows :—Monseigneur, ray Lord4faire, mesdames, et messieurs!, je vians vous remercier au nom de mes wheelies piesens et absens.

The LORD MAYOR next gave, " The House of Lords and the Health of the Earl of Lonsdale;" which was re. speeded to by . the Noble Earl. The Marquis of &tamer:um proposed " The Health of the Lord Mayor," complimenting his Lordship highly upon the manner in which be bed supported the ancient character of the City of London for hospitality, and the satisfactory manner in which he had discharged the va rious duties of his mayoralty. The LORD MAYOR returned thanks, and proposed " The House of Commons, and the Health of the Right Hon. the Chancellor of the Exchequer." Tho Cneetereeou of the EXCHEQUER, in returning thenke, Geld: I have the honour to return the thanks of the Members of the House of Commons for the distinc tion you have conferred upon them by drinking their health on this occasion. I hardly think I have any right to do so, for I have no claim to any pre-eminence in that House; but I may truly say of that House, and I ma y say of my brethren in it, of contrary opinions to those I hold, that the House of Commons is a true re public.—(A laugh.)
