The Directors invite applications for the unissued shares ! r i this Company, numbering 5,000, for the purposes here inafter mentioned. Mr. Reuter, by his personal influence on the Continent, has obtained,' and has handed over to this Company, a con cession from the Hanoverian Government, giving an exclu sive right for 30 years to lay down and work submarine telegraphic cables between the English and Hanoverian coasts, and the same exclusive right to lay land wires to ec ttain important places in Germany, besides other contin gent advantages of a very valuable character. Official statistics in the possession of the Directors show that the number of messages between England and Ger ntny in tree four years ending 1861 had increased 130 per cent., and in the last two years alone 80 per cont. ; and it matter of notoriety that the existing lines are unable to i t)nr reY messages with the expedition which is above all I lings desirable in telegraphy. The Directors are in a position to state that under the concession obtained, and the arrangements they have con cluded for working it, they will be able to transmit mes- S ages from England to the places named below within afew minutes from the time of despatch. arrangements have been made with the well-known contractors, the Telegraph Construction and Maintenance n ,n l Pariy, for constructing and laving down the requisite ? l a "le, by which the actual cost of - all the work to be done as been accurately determined. The Electric and International Telegraph Companybave agreed to an arrangement by which the use of a certain n umber of wires is to be ceded to them for a term of five I,!ars, that company guaranteeing the transmission over ,ue Hanoverian cable of the whole of the messages col lected at their different stations in the United Kingdom, f or,, Han over , B remen , H am b urg , S c hl e swig-Holstein, De nmark, Sweden, Norway, &c., and further guarantee ing a minimum am oun t o f b us i ness which, under the _con ditions o f the concess i on, an d un d er norma l c i rcums t ances , W ill produce a mini mum annua l revenu e equal to 15 per c vr e nt. on the total amount of capital required. The agreements, concessions, and other data on which this estimate is based having been placed in the hands of I!'re well-known accountant Messrs. Quilter, Ball, and Co., their certificate of the correctness thereof, annexed : " No. 3, Moorgate-street, Feb. 23, 1866. Sir, _ Having perused and considered the documents 4 n t,„entioneci in the subjoined note relating to the subject of 1 ,..'" 0 proposed Submarine Telegraph between England and 4 anover we are enabled from the data therein contained a nd other information supplied to us, to state the follow -1411,g facts and conc lusions respecting the profit results of Lae undertaking. . " The requisite amount of capital will be .£150,000 ; that is t° say, £130,175 for manufacturing and laying down the cable, leaving the sum of £19,825 to provide for contin gencies and working capital. " Estimating the revenue to be derived under the agree fent with the Telegraph Company upon the basis of the mi nimum number of messages guaranteed to be forwarded Fn that Co m p an y, we fi n d, a ft er p a yi ng or re s e rving to the s n l Pany their proportion of the net receipts, that the net P r ofit will amount to at least 15 per cent. per annum on the atal amount of the capital required—namely, £150,000. " Raving regard, however, to the probability • that the a ctual traffic of the cable will greatly exceed the secured uitlium there •is reasonable ground for expecting - that th e actual rate of profit will considerably exceed 15 per Cent per annum. "We remain, Sirs, yours faithfully, " QUILTER, BALL, and CO. • "To Julius Reuter, Esq. ITO.° of Documents referred to 1.

T his minimum is, moreover, entirely exclusive an d in d 'Pendent of the continually increasing profits of the busi rassbpirhased from Mr. Reuter, which will be very cowl augmented by the use of the wire retained by the CO ZaPany for the purposes of that business. he durability of cables in'shallow waters, such as the p. °l.t h Sea, where the Company's cable will be laid, is pa Ted by experience. They are as safe, and can be re to ,-,. re d almost as easily, as land wires. The existing cables h Oland have been laid several years, and that between ''_L'oyer and Calais 15 years, and they continue at the pre sent time in good working order. ti The cable will probably be ready for the transmission of ( rages by the end of August next.

THIRTY-SECOND ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING of SHAREHOLDERS of the AGRA and MASTERMAN'S BANK (Limited), held at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate-street, E.C., on Saturday, March 17, 1866, GEORGE GORDON MACPHERSON, Esq., Chairman, in the chair. The notice convening the Meeting and the following Report and Statement of Accounts were read : The Directors beg to submit to the proprietary the audited accounts for the year ended 31st December last, and to re port that, after making ample provision for bad and doubt ful debts, the available surplus is £250,254 2s. 9d. Out of this sum the Directors have paid two half-yearly dividends at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum, adding on each occasion a.bonus of 15s. per share, thus making the total distribution for the year 16 per cent., free of income tax, on the increased capital of one mil!ion and a half sterling. The balance, £10,254 2s. Pd., is carried forward to profit and loss account for the current year. The Directors have the pleasure to report that during last session an Act of Parliament was obtained for enabling the Bank to divide the original shares of £lOO each into two shares of £5O each. The subdivision has been carried out, and the capital of the Bank now consists of 60,000 shares of £5O each, of which £25 per share has been paid up. The Directors have opened a branch of the Bank in Paris, under the management of an influential Local Board, and they are glad to report that the results from the commence ment have been satisfactory. They have purchased the premises, 10, Place Vendome, for the conduct of the busi-' ness of the branch, and the cost is added to the property account. The Directors regret the loss which the Bank has sus tained by the death of their much-esteemed colleague, General Duncan Sim. It is not intended to fill up the vacancy in the Direction thus occasioned. The proprietors will have to elect Auditors for the ensu ing year, and the present Auditors, being eligible, offer themselves for re-election. By order of the Board.

IL GRONOW, formerly of the Grenadier Guards, and Author of " Recol lections and Anecdotes," " Celebrities of London and Paris," &c. Captain Gronow, who lately died in Paris, has left a widow and four young children, by his second marriage utterly destitute, without means to defray his funeral expenses, or even to purchase bread. Captain Gronow was disinherited by his father, in favour of his brother, a clergyman, and the small income which he derived from the interest of a sum charged on the family estate ceased with his life ; while the sums ho received from time to time for his " Recollections" were expended in providing for the increasing expenses of his young family. Under these distressing circumstances the friends of Madame Gronow in Paris came to her aid, and they now appeal to the liberality of her late husband's friends in ntao to the rear/ern of tits iteretniscentes, for contributions to enable her to maintain and educate her children.

PROVIDENCE ROW NIGHT REFUGE, FO HOMELESS WOMEN AND CHILDREN, 14A, Providence-row, Finsbury, E.C. Sixty Thousand Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, have been given in this Institution to the destitute, who otherwise would have had to pass the nights in the bleak streets or under railway arches. At present nearly 500 Nights' Lodgings, with Suppers and Breakfasts, are given gratuitously every week. The poor from all parts aro admitted, the only condition being that they are homeless and starving. The Manager, &c., receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each night numbers of young women, children, and orphans are, for want accommodation, refusedadmittance, andhave to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will be required. Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really starving ? The smallest donation will be most weldome, and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will be offered in your behalf. SUBSCRIPTIONS are earnestly requested, and will be gratefully received by the Rev. D. GILBERT, D.D., No. 22, Finsbury-circus. E.C. DONORS AND SUBSCRIBERS TO THE REFUGE.

It will be seen that there have been some interruptions and that in one year there were two races. Putney was the scene of considerable bustle and animation on Saturday afternoon, a great number of persons having assembled to take part in the pro ceedings of the day, and by far a greater number to look on. The London Rowing Club, the time honoured Leander, the West London, and the Ilex were all there, the first-named having a twelve and three eights manned, while the West London had two eights and fours, and the others furnished their quota to the fleet. We need hardly say that although this was very interesting, the principal source of attraction was the University men and the Univer sity men's doings, which are being daily watched with increased interest and enxiety, and form a wile scope of speculation at prices ranging from 6 to 4t02 to 1 on Oxford. The Cantabs went up to Mortlake about an hour before high water, f on t a e very good tide, with a stiff breeze, southward. They commenced their rowing 3 h 7 b al e s mg it w s e t. l r l uc p k ull u e s d , g h h a , rd be y sid ca es tch in ing on t e he o ir r strokes s h p t e i r le M n water, u te btuhtei grip rather of below tilew t a h t e e their earlywo work e a n n o d u their setting,a rs two instances feathering hardly clear of the water. In other respects there was marked improvement in their rowing. The wind was foul for them in Cor ney Reach, and the water rough, owing to which their number of strokes was abated to 34 per minuto for a time, but afterwards increas e d b y de grees to 40, at which they finished, d o i ng th e course in 21 min. 40 sec. They rowed back steadily and well. As one of the rival crew had had occasion to go to Oxford and the remainder were awaiting his return, which was not until the afternoon was far advanced, the Oxonians did not go over the whole course, but having paddled against the tide up to within a mile of Barnes-bridge had a smart pull down on the ebb to Putney. Their rowing indi cated improvement, and they rowed very strongly. There is very little doubt that ere the day of the THE SUN. LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, MARCH 19, 1666.

I need not refer at greater length to the chances of those likely to contest this handicap, but retain on my side &a mender, Mail Train, Pearl Diver, Ethelred, and one of John Day's to beat the field, and, as on Wednesday, let my champions be SOAMANDER and MAIL TRAIN. VATICINATOR—St/71day Times. We have too much faith in the abilities of MAIL TRAIN and William Day for us to discard the Woodyeates chance, but we confess to a wholesome fear of &amender and Raglan. BELCON—Sportsnian. The finish of which I consider will be confined to Saunander, Raglan, and MAIL TRAIN, the latter of whom I expect to see emulate Bevis's per formance in 1859, and carry this rich prize to Woodyeates• Bell's Life. Few care to oppose the Woodyeates division when they are in earnest, which they appear to be now with MAIL TRAIN. Beyond him wo do not care to look for an ally, although, for fear of accidents, it may be as well to look out for a second string, for which w'e are compelled to fall back upon Scamander, as up to the present time no money has been entrusted to a three year old, or something de cent at 6st or less would be preferable to Mr. Cartwright's horse. MERLlN—Sporting Gazette. In taking a lot against the field I should include the best of John Day's, Pearl Diver, Raglan, Sandal, and Valiant. At the post, I should declare in favour of San dal, but in the present doubtful state of the market I give the preference to PEARL DIVER. We regret to say that the Duke of Rutland was unable to attend Croxton Park Races, owing to indisposition. Norwich Steeplechases have been postponed sine die. The colt by Odo, out of Bianca, 3 yrs, has been named King of Oude. Mr. Snewing has sent three two-yr-olds to John Arm strong's, Epsom, to be prepared. We understand that Mr G. H. Moore's Slieve Came, 3 yrs, has joined Mr Scott's string at Holywell. We understand that Mr. Barber sold Cutler at Warwick to Mr. J. Dally for 250 guineas. Mr. Studd, owner of Salamander, wins 1,600 sova on the Grand Annual at Warwick. The assumed names Mr. W. Holmes and Mr. C. Prosser have been registered. It is currently rumoured that Blue Riband injured him self in his stall on Thursday last. Corsica, sold at Warwick to Mr. Granville, is now the property of Mr. Reginald Herbert. A Steeplechase Meeting will be held at Diss, Norfolk, on Aprillo. Triangle, 2 yrs, after her sorry exhibition at Warwick, was sold at auction for 10} gs. Owing to an injured hand Fordham was unable to ride at Warwick after the first day. Ethelred was struck out of the Willoughby Handicap at Warwick at 0.50 pm. on the morning of the race. Young Lord was scratched for the Two Year Old Stakes at Warwick at 1.50 pm. on the 14th inst. The services of Inspector Tanner have been secured to check the numerous depredations which have annually occurred in the ring at Northampton. Mr. Thirkell, of Swinton, purchased the chesnut colt by Leamington, out of Catherine Parr, 4 yrs, at Doncaster Spring Meeting. Ward, whose term of probation for refractory conduct in the Cambridgeshire, expires on the 2d of April, has been engaged by Mr. Barber. purring the running for the "Grand Annual," at War., ~y~~<« OXFORD. ST. Joiners COLLEGE.—The four-oared race WAS rowed on Wednesday, March 14, when five crews contended. In the final heat, Mr Fell's crew went off with the lead, and kept it to the cud, beating Mr Paterson by a length and a half. For the junior sculls, which were rowed for on Thursday and Friday, the Bth and 9th inst., there were four competitors, exclusive of the holder. In the final heat s the winners of the heats—Messrs Nolan and Aston—and the holder, Mr Archibald, contended. Mr Nolan (first station) could not keep his distance ahead of Mr Aston, and the latter, after getting through the Gut, increased.bia advantage, and won very easily. EXETER COLLEGE.—The junior sculls were rowed for on Monday, the 12th inst., when there were three entries only, viz. :—Mr France, first station ; Mr C. E. Leeds, second station ; and Mr Valpy, third station. A time race. Leeds was the favourite, and won easily ; Valpy, second. THE INTERNATIONAL SCULLING MATCH. The latest advices anent this great match arc contained in the New York, Clipper of March 3, from which it appears that Kelley's late re-assurance of the money being all right has not reached them. The Clipper remarks :—" Nothing, fresh has yet transpired in reference to the proposed meet ing between the aquatic chiefs of America and England, the interest regarding which continues to augment as the progress of events increases the probability of the antici pated England are corroborative of the opinion we expressed last struggle being brought about. Our latest advices from week, that the statements made in the London journals relative to Kelley's acceptance were authorised by him, and they were evidently waiting to hear what Hamill had second excitement on l to say in response thereto. We think there is very little doubt that the match will be effected, and, if our expecta tions will realised , b the y to that n h ed ch by ara t c h w e con testoecw as h i i o c test throughout all classes of society on both sides of the Atlantic the meeting between the fistic champions, Heenan and Sayers." EUROPEAN OPINIOSS. The changes that are now taking place in Euro pean opinions with regard to the United States are certainly extraordinary. Our cousin-germans in Upper Germany have the honour to be among the first of the passing epoch to prove their confidence in the stability and integrity of that country. They show their faith by their works in the shape of a large loan, on a long lease and fair terms. Ame ricans have always had the sympathy of the Repub licans of Germany, from the higher to the lower lands and waters of that rich nation ; but the capi talists there have generally stood and gazed at them coldly, afar off. Now, however, the scene is changed. German gold finds its safest and most profitable investments in the coffers of the American Union ; and the speculators of other parts of Europe have the satisfaction of looking on at the boards, as their G-ertnau neighbours pile away their honest profits. It is a tribute to the good sense, as well as liberality of the Teuton, that will not soon be forgotten in European circles. We cannot fail to see that a marked change has come over the spirit of the dream of the EMPEROR - OF FRANCE. All know he is au adept at concealing his real thoughts ; but that actions speak louder than words will apply to his case as well as to that of any other man. lie may conceal his thoughts by words, but he cannot conceal his actions. They are patent to the world. It is evident that he is expecting to browbeat the United States. He thinks he is giving them a terrible scowl by the act of sending forward a portion of his African contin gent from Algiers to Mexico. He may find, how ever, to his cost, that they are quite as much needed to maintain French usurpations in the former coun try as in the latter. The EMPEROR OF FRANCE had just as much right to take forcible possession of Algiers as he had of Mexico, and no more. Our readers will agree with us that the right is hardly perceptible to the naked eye. Nothing short of the largest monarchical telescope can see it in that light. We are gravely told by the nominal French authorities (we say nominal, for it is perfectly clear to all the candid world that the majority of the Government of France is but the mere puppet of the EMPEROR) that the presence of the French flag on the continent of America was once regarded by Americans as a favour. If this is not adding insult to injury we know not what is. It must be a dull vision, indeed, that does not perceive it. Yet it is one of those silly and fallacious flings that it is better to laugh at than resent. We have only to look a moment at the reasoning of these French political philosophers to see its absurdity and impotence. They gravely tell us that the French were America's allies in the Revolution of Seventy-six. Very well. Americans thanked them for it at the time ; they have thanked them for it many times since. They have lavished their gratitude and their public lands on the Frenchmen and their descendants who aided in the war of American independence. Some of them have been made millionaires. What then? Does not all the world k now that one of t h e c hi e f mo tives that influenced the Frenchmen of that period was quite as much hatred to England as it was love for America ? Does not the history of the Revolu tion teach us that, though the struggle might have been prolonged, America would eventually have conquered without the aid of the French ? _ During some portions of that eventful War there were quite as many quasi French fighting against America as there were for her, including those who were in the pay of the monarchical party ie of France, representing other states of Europe. How absurd, then, are these utterances of the hired mouth-pieces of Louis NAPOLEON, which seek to justify French outrages committedlo:;lo;oribebayyn pleading the paid services of French contingents in the American Revolution ! With equal pro might priety, the course of Engla s id rz Ln ia the East be justified by her abolition of slavery i n o t f hat he o r f tllVieesetmianndeicipsa;tioonr Times.
