The objects of the company are, first, to nstruct a rail way, about nine miles in length, from the" Old Port" of Marseilles to Podestat, to afford increased facilities for the commerce andmanufactures of the town and port; secondly, will be toacquire land on both sid e s o f th e li ne throughout its l ength for buildi ng an d o th er p ur p oses , t o w hi c h great value v given by the construction of the railway. The reputation of Marseilles as the first maritime city of F rance is well known, second only to Paris in population a nd wealth ; its position and capabilities give it the corn bland of French commerce in the Mediterranean. Within the last ton years Marseilles has been placed in direct railway communication with Paris and all parts of France. Magnificent docks and warehouses have been con at ructed ; but great and rapid as those new works have been they are still far behind the requirements of its ever-in creasing trade. The old quarters of the town are being demolished to snake room for handsome streetsandpublic buildings. The Population thus displaced are driven to the suburbs, more e specially towards the south, where the lands of the Corn ?any aro situate, and where a fine valley stretches from the town to the Mediterranean, with a view of the sea, and °Pen to the refreshing breezes, which during the summer a llb : ea o tr r ee d dadi t b h yi e only relief from the intense heat of the city. The enormous value of ground in the town may be esti :,he fact that, for any extension, rocks 60 feet high h ave to be cleared away to give sites for building ; it will readily understood that such a locality is no longer suited for the erection of ordinary dwellings, or factories and che laical works, which latter, for sanitary reasons, will soon he driven from the city. :rile proposed railway after leaving the port and town suboo,ooo u nhabitants, ' will pass through the southern th r , which contains a population of 50,000, and follow e valley to the sea, at the "Madrague de Montredon," ' l : 4 n thence it will be continued for three miles along the wit t to Podestat, affording sites for the erection offactories, with acc ess to the sea, and direct railway communication lied. the town and port, and with the Paris, Lyons, and beanderranean lines, by a junction with the proposed new T a r of the latter to the " Place Ctestellane." emre e a re at the present time 460 factories in the town, facte.c7ing lia4rlY 10,000 workmen, and the number of ries ee °ldd rapidly increase were it not for the heavy charges. v . e to which they are subjected from the increasing •;a4le of the ground occupied, and the want of direct rail aeT connexion with the port and with the Paris, Lyons, iise Mediterranean lines. The proprietors of these estab '2lerltB will gladlavail themselves of the opportunity r e Msing• of their present sites to great advantage, and ea T°'eing to a locality combining the facilities of sea and de s t e ` w aY communication, with perfect freedom from all the beeeulties of their present position, and where land can 11 6 o btained from the Company at a tenth part of the price ° Te paid for building ground in the town. th i n order t o f orm an opinion of the pecuniary results . of all proposed operations of the Company, it will bedesir 4, e to consider separately the income to be derived from re rnd ailay, and the profit to be realised by the sale of tho the Company. th at the with reference to the railway it must be observed, i ne existing lines aro connected with the new port 67Joliette" and the docks, but that the Old Port, which is ti ac res in extent, is entirely without railway communica . 4),3. or docks, notwithstanding which the official statistias V essels, we',ltee Government show, that during the last year for p,','_ l ,l l l they are published, 1863, the returns for the " Old ert were as follows : 4 ,383 Tons of Merchandise. 4 ,303 9 f. various nations entered, carrying 950,180 11 71 l e ft, 77 593,842 .‘ T.81(locas1 i B e 6 e s t , :i vr ta e l r o e f:v_e_ssels. 1,544,022 Tons. 11 ` st ing the same period the returns for the new port. 2 6 Tons of Merchandise. 2' , °3 , of various nations entered, carrying 364,121 1, left, „ 330.876 5,009 Total of vessels. 691,997 Tons. gut end in addition t o thi s th e new p or t "J o li e tt e " received 6,3 7" ..ent off 1 ,1.59,021 tons of merchandise in 1863 , by 1 rei Ys and ; steamers, oksn account of the facilities afforded by the doc. 01,,.. 11 , 8 evident from these returns that a railway to the ail e d ort must secure a very large amount of goods traffic, r°lll the population of the suburban district through which the line will pass, and the number of factories, &c., alreadyreve established in that locality, it is calculated that the 5 nne Will produce an immediate profit revenue equal to er Per cent. on the outlay, which income will be rapidly in lioceased he'' the erection of houses and factories along the k_ r There will be seven intermediate stations between a seines and Podestat, one of which will bo for the ° ace Course ' " aid the "Public Gardens," a nd "Chateau ei The Company have contracted for the execution of the i' ° , r ks of the railway from Place Castellano" to r odestat," at the price of £185,000. they, with reference to the profit to be realised by e sale of the land of the Company, it may be stated that all Previous speculations in land at Marseilles have been suc cessful, ~The Company have contracted for the purchase of about Situate on both sides of the proposed railway, between the town and the Madrague de Montredon ;" 1409aenetres of which w ill b e requ i re d for the construction of lino and stations, leaving 1,060,000 metres to be sold for the erection of first-class residences. It has been estimated by competent judges of the value of building sites in the neighbourhood of Marseilles, that on the completion of the railway the whole of this land will be readily sold at the price of at least 20 francs per metre, at which rate it will produce 21,200,000 francs, or £848,000. The Company have also contracted for the purchase of a Irery large tract of ground beyond the "Madrague de Mon tredon," through which the railway will pass to Podestat ; 1,500000 metres (about 375 acres) of this la n d, adjoining both sea and railway, will be at once available as sites for factories and works of all kinds. Estimating the selling price of this land at 101. per metro, 4 ,,,amia sufficiently low to induce the manufacturers to es "'WI their works rapidly in the locality, it will produce a Bum of 15,000,000 f , or £600,000. The average cash cost to the Company of the land above referred to is only sff. per metre, including the houses already built thereon, and including also upwards of 1. 0 ‘,000,000 metres of land (about 2,500 acres) on the coast ple for three miles beyond the' proposed terminus at b.

This Company has been formed for the purpose of pur chasing and extending the well-known and valuable Marble Quarries at Massa-Carrara, near Leghorn, hitherto carried on by an Italian Company, as well as several other in.- portant quarries, in adjacent districts. These quarries comprise statuary of first and second quality, clear white, Sicilian, dove, and other marbles. Included in the purchase are extensive saw mills, recently erected, and a large stock of marble both in blocks and slabs, and arrangements are pending for securing an exten sive agency business in London. The Marble Quarries of Carrara are the principal, if not the only source in Europe from which white and veined marble is procurable. Fifteen quarries are in high production and extensively opened, and in addition there are several other new quar ries of the first importance. The saw mills are distant only three miles from the railway station at Massa, from which a railway leads direct to the shipping port of Leg horn. The consideration for the transfer of these several quar ries, together with the saw mills, machinery , and plant , of the Italian Company, and the goodwill of its business, and also including the stock of blocks and slabs of marble in Italy, has been fixed at £BO,OOO, leaving ample capital for the erection of additional saw mills, and for developing both the old and new quarries. The colossal fortunes made by,the few parties who have so long monopolised the marble quarries in Italy are a sufficient guarantee of the prospects of the Company. The Company will annually derive two sources of profit from their operations, the one local the other foreign, by exports to Great Britain, America, the East Indies, and elsewhere. Taking the annual total yield of Marble at 300,000 cubic palms (or 12,000 tons English), it is expected that the sale of blocks and slabs will realise a net annual profit, deducting all expenses. of £28,700 sterling ; whilst with respect to the trade with Great Britain, deducting all ex penses, including management, a further profit may be con dently looked for. Printed copies of the several reports of Messrs. Weiller, Bargiacchi, and Avenante, upon the value and capabilities of the property, may be. had at the Offices, where speci mens of the marble from the quarries may be seen. In the event of no allotment of shares being made, the deposit will be returned in full. Should a less number of shares be allotted than are applied for, the deposit will be made available towards the payment on allotment, and the balance (if any) returned to the applicant. Prospectuses and Forms of Application for Shares, in the form annexed, may be obtained at the Offices of the Company ; also of the Bankers, Broker, and Solicitors. London, 21st July, 1865.

Scheldt was struck out at 4 20 on Tuesday, and Hopper, Moose, and Real Jam this morning at 12 30. In consequence of the restiffuess of Farce, who refused to face the flag, the start was somewhat protracted, and when the bugle sounded announcing their departure, Sprite, on the extreme right of her horses, was seen in advance, having Suspicion, Redmire, Armagnac, Sister to Drake, Blackdown, and Alabama as her immediate followers. Two or three lengths in the rear of these came Claremont, Lady Hylda and Farce. As they proceeded towards the turn out of the course, Farce, over-pulling her rider, ran past her horses in succession, and when fairly on the descent to wards the Craven mile post she assumed the command, Blackdown, despite his heavyimpost, goingin second, close up with whom were Armagnac, Sister to Drake, Scaman der, and Suspicion, and in their rear were Alabama, Lady Hylda, and Claremont Redmire still retaining her rearward position. With little or no alteration they proceeded round the lower turn, but as they re-appeared in sight Claremont was seen in attendance upon the leader, Blackdown and Sprite having relinquished their forward positions in favour of Lord Stamford's colt, who, as they ascended the hill, took a decided lead, which he retained to the turn for home, but there dying away he was added to the beaten division, and the Lewis horse was then left in command, closely pressed by Scamander, Claremont, Ala bama, Sprite, and Suspicion, the latter evidently under waiting orders. As they entered the dip the pace some what slacked, which enabled the leaders to get upon closer terms, and as they approached the distance were joined by Redmire, who hitherto apparently had been outpaced. From this point the lot ran nearly in a line to half way up, when Blackdown broke down badly and was immediately stopped, leaving the command with Suspicion, who came up next the rails, followed by Scamander, Alabama, and Redmire, to which quartette the race was now confined. At the enclosure Grimshaw improved his position, and won with great ease by a length and a half ; Scamander defeating Alabama by a length for the second money, the latter passing the goal a head in advance of Redmire, close up with whom came Claremont, Sprite, Farce, Lady Hylda, and Sister to .Drake, who passed the judge in the order named.

A quarterly meeting of the Chamber took place yesterday, but it was very thinly attended. The PRESIDENT (Mr. M. Ross) said that, judg ing from their experience so far, it did not appear likely that these quarterly meetings were likely to prove very attractive or interesting either to the public or the members. The business transacted by the Board since the last meeting had been comparatively uninteresting, partly owing to the intervention of a dissolution of Parliament. A great number of interesting communications, how ever, had been received, which would afford suffi cient matter for inquiry. He enumerated among them a number of foreign commercial treaties as forming the subject of these communications, and among the rest he read an interesting statement re specting the cotton trade of Russia. .He said—ln 1822 a productive tariff of 60 to 100 per cent. on cotton goods was adopted, and cotton prints were prohibited. This tariff led to the establishment of cotton mills, and in 1853 noblemen were embarking in them. From this time the import of raw cotton increased, and that of yarn diminished. In 1824-26, in raw cotton there were imported 74,268 poods of 361 b. ; in 1853, 1,814,282 poods. Taking the same years, the imports of yarn diminished. In 1824-26 the imports of cotton yarn were 337,101 poods ; in 1853, 83,548 poods. The duty up on yar n was 10d per lb., or about 60 per cent. on Nos. 20 to 40 ; present duty, 3i per cent. The mills are mostly working day and night, an d the average production is 361 b. per spindle per annum. The individual consumption of cotton goods of Russia, as compared with Austria, is as 10 to 18 ; France 10 to 35; Loll verein, 10 to 35 ; and England, 10 to 83. The diffe r ence in price, as compared with other coun tries, will be 35 to 40 per cent., and, in some in stances, 60 per cent. or more. The number of 1,0,0, reesenting a cai spindles in Russia 7soo is tal of £7,000,000. The dividend for 24 years ha p ve averaged 11 per cent., and the original capital has increased five and six fold. The cost of mills per nominal horse-power is £9OO ; per spindle, £4 7s. ; per loom, in addition, £37 10s. In England, he says, the nominal horse-power is £5OO. For every hand there is an outlay of £3OO in machinery spin ning 30's to 40's. The wages of 41,000 operatives is 6,150,000 roubles of 3s. each per annum, besides the salaries of masters and clerks. The cost of coal, oil, and stores is generally equal Lo wages. Coal, 255. per ton. Russia employs 14,000 power-looms and 50,000 hand-looms. Field labour is only pos sible during 130 to 150 days in the year. The popu lation of Russia in Europe is 65,000,000, and of these there are 52,000,000 who do not reside in towns ; there are 74,000,000 in all Russia. The average wages in mills are 9s. 42d. per hand per week. The loss on spinning in 1864 was equal to 10d. per lb. Before the American war they re ceived from Persia 50,000 poods of cotton ; now, 75'0,000 Roods. The cost of engines and boilers, PRICE 4d. S TAMPED sd. and the gearing within the engine-house, is £5O per nominal horse-power. The mills have double win dows to keep out the cold. A. great amount of influence for good has been exercised by English overlookers. The loss occasioned by supporting this industry is estimated at £ 2 ,550,000 per annum. The consumption of cotton ought to be 10 or 11 times as much as it is. At present only 'one-fifth of the mills are working. A conversation followed of a very desultory ope cha racter, in which a member expres se d a hope some steps would be taken by the Chamber relative to the amendment of the law of bankruptcy, which he said was to form a topic of consideration at next year's meeting of the Social Science Association at Sheffield. Mr. WALKER wished to call attention to the want of more reliable returns of the stock of cotton in Liverpool, which he thought the Chamber might usefully direct its attention to remedying. He said that at the close of last year there were found to be 114,000 bales of cotton more than the weekly returns had led them to expect. It was clear, there fore, that these weekly returns had been in error for some indefinite number of weeks, and yet we were every week this year receiving returns of stock, and comparing them with those of last year, which it was now well known were erroneous. Mr. HUGH MASON said through this Chamber and the Cotton Spinners' Association an arrangement had since the close .of last year been made with the Liverpool cotton brokers to publithikquartgly,re turn of the stock of cotton. As to the false returns of last year he feared there was no remedy, but he hoped the new arrangement would prevent such errors in future. The meeting ended with a vote of thanks to the president. AMERICA. SOUTHAMPTON, Wednesday. The North German Lloyd screw steamship America, Captain H. Wessels, from New York on the 15th inst., arrived off Cowes at noon to-day, and went on to Bremen after transhipping mails, &c., for this port. She brings 88 passengers for South ampton and Havre, and 367 for Bremen ; and on freight, 27,520 dols. for England, 2,000 dols. for Bremen, and a general cargo. She has had fine weather and variable westerly winds during the voyage. On the 16th, at 719 a.m., in lat. 40 35 N., long. 70 7 W., the America spoke the steamer Hansa, from Southampton on the sth, for New York ; and at 10 30 a.m. on the 16th, in lat. 40 37 N. long. 69 19 W., she spoke the Bremen ship Columbus, westward bound. Judge Marvin, formerly United States' district judge for the Southern district of Florida, was on the 14th inst. appointed Provisional Governor of that state by the President. This appointment completes the work of supplying all the States lately in rebel lion with civil executives and in once more placing the entire sisterhood of the Union under the direc tion of Governors, either elected or appointed, acknowledging and in accord with the general Government. The work of confiscating the property of wealthy' rebels was inaugurated at Richmond on the 10th inst., much to the consternation of the people of that city, by the seizure of the famous Tredegar Iron Works by Government agents. Descriptions of a large amount of other property liable to be confiscated have been taken, and the tenants thereof have been notified to pay no more rent to the rebel proprietors. The publication of the Richmond Whig was sus pended on the 11th by General Terry, and the esta blisment taken possession of by therrovost-Marshal, in consequence of an editorial appearing in the paper on that morning in which a portion of President Johnson's amnesty proclamation was pronounced 4 , heathenish," and one of the Acts of Congress 4‘ mean, brutal, and cowardly, revoltingly absurd and atrociously unjust." A correspondent of the New York Herald, who has lately been through Northern Alabama; states that that region is almost one continuous field of cotton. The planters have given their attention to the business again this year almost as much as in ante-rebellion times, and the growing crop looks very fine. The negroes are working for their for mer masters for wages, and the new labour system appears to progress very well. The New York Herald sb.ys:— ~ It is estimated that there still remain in Texas from one hundred thousand to one hundred and fifty thousand bales of the old crop of cotton, while, owing to various un favourable circumstances, it is thought that this year's crop will not exceed fifty thousand bales. It is also calcu lated that there are within the State, accumulated during the war, five million pounds of wool." Governor Brownlow had issued an address to the people of Tennessee, in - which he declares that the spirit of rebellion is still unsubdued, and that at the approaching elections those who have been in actual hostility with the Union will attempt, to re instate themselves in authority. He notifies that to prevent such a result the laws regulating the exercise of the right of suffrage will be rigidly en forced, even though it should become necessary to call in the assistance of the military. Mr. Harlan, Secretary of the Interior, during an address at the laying of the corner stone of a new orphan asylum in Washington on the 14th instant, said, in alluding to the relations between France " When the French sprang to n-inter and the United States : e 12th, will TurkishofGondatitohnaatlitthiy attempt to crush feeble Mexico.

The Superintendent of Freedmen in Shreveport, that they must retain and support the aged and in firm negroes who have been their slaves. says : .1 " At a festival given to Generals Sherman and Cox yes terday, at Columbus, General Sherman, on being enthu siastically called upon to make a speech, came forward, and with much reluctance did so. In the course of his remarks he alluded to the charge that while he was in command in Kentucky he had demanded for the campaign 200,000 men. He said that was when he was visited by Secretary Came ron. He then explained to him tispiifficulty of marching into Tennessee by divergent lines—one to Nashville, and the other to East Tennessee, with forces largely outnumbered by the rebel armies confronting him. On one of these lines he had 4,300 men to meet an opposing force of 18,000. When asked by Secretary Cameron how many men were needed for the present campaign, ho (Sherman) replied, 460,000, and before you can reduce the South to subjuga tion you must have 200,000.' This statement was made in the presence of Secretary Cameron and his military family, and ivas afterwards published in the Eastern newspapers in a very distorted and incorrect form." A great International Trade Convention assem bled at Detroit, Michigan, on the 11th. All the different commercial organisations in the United States and British North American Provinces were. represented. Various reports and resolutions were submitted, but the Convention adjourned without important action. A report presented on the 14th by Mr. Howes, of Nova Scotia, contained the de claration that the annexation of the B h ritis Pro * cei to the Unite d States has no place in the minds of the people of those provinces, and that should any one attempt to go to the hustings as an a d voca te of such a schem e he would be treated as a revolof the Canadian Cabinet was held at the 14th.

Biped and quadruped will longremember the dusty drive from Drayton station this morning, and the pull up the hill under the rays of as scorching a sun as Goodwood ever experienced. The Wight was hidden in heated mist, and the dwarf tower of Chichester Cathedral appeared to glow in the broiling atmosphere. It was a day of intense heat without any cooling breeze. The Drawing-Room Stakes only bringing three to the post, yet as two of them were Longdown and Gladiateur, the one carrying 51b, and the other 101 b extra, the race of course excited an immense amount of interest, though few after one look at the Derby winner could have much doubt as to the result. Longdown could not live with him, and he won by 40 lengths with the same grand stride and bounding action that astonished us so much at Epsom. The Stakes, as we remarked yesterday, could not boast much in the way of quality, and despite Claremont and Suspicion being the strong favourites they were, the race in the eyes of many good judges was an open affair. The fallacy of private trials has been so often exposed that the very favourable one Mr. Bevill's horse was said to have had with Helen failed to convince the sceptical as to-his merits. But the result proved right this Limo. While Claremont, his fellow-favourite, was never in the race, Suspicion, thanks to his very light impost, had won from the first, and scattered his field easily. The horse upon whom there were more place bets than any in the race, Blackdown, broke down. The Findon Stakes proved the Student to be very good, for he made his own running and cut down his field, in cluding the much-vaunted Auguste, without being called upon. The other events will speak for themselves. A Handicap Plate of 100 sous for 8-yr-olds and upwards. _ _ Craven Course. yrs, 8; lb 5 9-- - 4— Mr. W. Morris's Raglan, (J.

Rounding the turn into the straight Musketeer dropped back, and Gomera gradually improving his position took the second place at the distance, and on Crook attempting to get up next the rails Raglan wa s d r i ven so c l ose as to interfere with he r action, and in consequence her rider was co mpelled to ease and come round on his left, which , which was subsequently enabled Raglan to pass the post three parts of a length in a d vanc e ; a bad third.

Patron—Her Most Gracious Majesty the QUEEN. The Committee earnestly solicit the ASSISTANCE of the benevolent, as the premises of this Hospital are 'capable of containing several hundred more beds, had the Committee the requisite funds to maintain there. This Hospital, founded in the year 1828, the first to estab lish the principle of free admission to the sick poor, without the delay and difficulty of Governors' orders, is wholly de pendent for support on voluntary contributions and legacies. It affords relief to a large number of in-patients, and, in addition to this, the average number of attendance of the destitute sick has for a conziderable period averaged between 3,000 and 4,000 weekly. Contributions are received by the Treasurer, Edward Mai >erman, Esq., Nicholas-lane; also by Messrs.

One of the employes at the museum, who passed through the crowd with a bunch of coral in one hand and a stuffed racoon in the other, was loudly cheered. But the excitement rose to its height when the giantess ; the fat lady, and the white woolly-heeded Albino passed down Fulton-street, followed by a number of the ladies of the corps de ballet, who, poor things, had lost all of their theatrical wardrobe. The pantomime of the Green Monster was to have been performed at the museum in the afternoon ; but the monster was consumed with the whales, the Happy Family, and the snakes. The fat lady, the giantess, and the ballet girls found a tem porary refuge in a newspaper office, where they rehearsed their losses to a small but select audience, and the Albino was spirited away to a more private location, where she could not be seen without paying for the privilege. About 100 persons must have been thrown out of employment at the museum, and many of the pantomimists, dancers, and keepers will find it difficult to obtain employment at this dull season for amusements. The crowd did not think of this, however. They were incessant in their cries of boiled whale,' fried snakes,' broiled monkey,' and roast elephant,' thus displaying a sort of gamin wit and a perfect familiarity with the contents of the museum. Throw me out one of the canoes,' or ' Pitch me the bow constructor, I wants it f or a tipp e t,' or ' H ow are you, learned seal ?' provoked continued laughter. We sugges however, that the fire has rather a serious side to it, and that the members of the theatrical profession in this city ought to organise a mammoth benefit at the Academy of 'Happy F am il y ' quite belied their Music, the proceed s t o b e divided among those whom this conflagration has dep r i ve d of their engagements for the summer. When th e fi re first broke out and the smoke commenced to penetrat e th e galleries there arose the most peculiar Babel of sound s w hi ch it was ever allotted to mortal toheathr.e monkeys The jabbered, t h e dogs barked, the cats mewed, parrots screamed, bears growled, k angaroos kangarooed, parroquots screamed Otter, ott er ,' an d the poor atter,. not caring for the smoke, buried himself i n hi s nat i ve element. The birds fluttered against the ba rs o f t h e i r cognomen; cages, and sang most doleful melodies. To save these poor animals was one of the first things thought of, and the first who presented himself to our notice was poor bruin' himself, making the descent of the ladder in a very pecu liar manner. He seemed quite savage, and not at all in clined for fun. Accustomed to be looked at through iron bars, he seemed at a loss to understand his present situa tion. Several times, as his feet slipped through the rounds of the ladder, the tightening of the rope by which he was held caused him to pale visibly, and certainly show his canines, or, more properly, bearines. After some con siderable time he reached, not the top of the ladder, but the foot, and once on terra firma, he looked as contented as a bear could look under the circumstances. Louder grew the jabbering& of the monkey tribe, who leaped frantically about, the boa constrictor writhed in agony as the heat became stronger, and a dismal series of wails from the whales, who had not been used to tropical seas, mingled with the rhapsodies of the astrologer, the pant ings of the fat woman, and the groanings of the giantess. The two latter were half frantic. and the maniac penman made the most artistic flourishes with his quill. Poor Ned, the educated seal,who was wont to astonish spectators with his sagacity, who used to turn the handle of a barrel organ, and do everything but speak, was seized upon by a couple of men, one evidently a Hibernian, ' Bad luck to ye, he's biting me, Mick'; and so he was. Fetch me a basket' was the cry, and still Ned wriggled about in the most fishy man ner, the crowd making on every side. At length his res cuers succeeded in bringing Ned to a place of safety, and we may at some future time see him perform as of yore. With these exceptions we fear all the extensive and inte resting collection of animals fell a prey to the fiery element, with the exception, perhaps, of a few birds, which may have succeeded in flying away. The crowd outside were most anxious about dumb crathurs who niver done no one any harm, barren the bite the sale give me,' as our friend the Hibernian called them, and anxious inquiries were made as to whether the water in the aquaria wouldn't prevent their finny inhabitants from being burnt. It may be some time before we can have so fine a collection of tropical fish as was in the Museum. The aquaria were made on the most approved plan, and arranged so that the water was kept fresh by the passage of air through them. The collection of birds, too, was most extensive. The animals were nu merous and well trained, so that they all lived together - without any squabbling—making one think that even by training the millennial characteristic of the lion lying down with the lamb' would not be so strange after all. The collection comprised a large variety of the monkey tribe, kangaroo, cat, dog, and other species, and afforded much amusement to the children of our city, to whom a visit to Barnum's was always a great treat. Country cou sins, too, who viewed the white cat, that had no tail, and and therefore could not a tale unfold,' will have no place where to study the beauties of natural history, and many now will feel sorry for having given the monkey blind nuts, now that he is no more. Many will think of Jocko who used to submit to their persecutions ' without a word of anger or reproach.' Poor Jocko ! Unfortunate pussy ! you are now where even the great showman cannot find you. We drop a tear for your memories. and though you sometimes attempted to bite our fingers when we ap proached too near your prison -house, still we will faith fully adhere to the injunction, 'Be mortals nil nisi bonum. " RAILWAYS IN INDIA.—Mr. land Danvers, the Government director of the Indian railway companies, states in his annual report, just issued, that the present system of guaranteed railways comprises a length of 4,917 m il es, o f which 3,186 are now open for traffic. Tho net profits in th e y ear en di ng the 30th of June, 1863, on 2,151 mil es o f ra il way, amounted to £690,834; and to £915,077 in the year en di ng J une 3 0, 1864, on 2,489 miles. The number of passengers convey e d i n th e l a tt er year was 11,781,683, compared with 9,242,540 in the former. The total expenditure of capital on the lines which are open, or in course of construction, amounted on May 1, 1865, to £5042,029. The expenditure this year, it is estimated, will amount to rather more than £ 5 , 0 0 0 ,000,ab0ut£1,804,000 to be expended in England and £3,350,000 in India. The total amount estimated to be required for the undertakings, as now sanctioned, will reach £77,500,000. The number of land and 777 in India, the latter number consisting of 354 and 393 natives. There were also 6,453 deben he c 6 r s p e az a a s m t e d o yutenoat amounted Europeans a n lvBe t ture holders. Up to the end of 1834 the Government had shareholders at the end of the year 1864 was 29,303 in Eng advanced £13,160,539 to the railway companies for guaran teed interest, but about £3,300,000 had been paid back out and7 to ° ° about by Q u y t ; of the earnings of the railways, leaving nearly £10,000,000 still due to the Government. The charge upon the Go:- but the receipts from traffic which go in diminution of £1,000,000, will ill 1864-65 probably reach £1,300,000. Year by year the revenues will approach nearer and in nearer to tho amount of the guaranteed interest, and at t J v h a e u r f 1 a e n n n d e t x w t was h it e w h fl probably 4b year y have last the Government will not only be relieved of the annual payment altogether, but the railways will begin to earn more than the guaranteed rate, and to discharge their debt for previous advances out of half the excess profits above 5 per cent. Although it will be some timebefore the Govern ment will receive back the large sum due to them, there is enough in the present condition of the lines to encourage the hope that ultimately it will be paid, and in the mean time the State obtains advantages which fully compensate for the liability it has incurred. Mr. Danvers holds that no country in the world will derive greater advantages from railways than India ; that the traffic on the main lines may be expected to be enormous ; and when they earn six, eight, or ten per cent the difficulty which now exists in inducing capitalists to promote public works in India will be removed. REVIEW OF YORKSHIRE VoLuNTEEßS.Yester day, Lord Londesborough invited the volunteers from the East Riding and other parts of Yorkshire to assemble in his park at Londesbury,nearMarket Weighton, on the occasion of the annual assembly of his tenantry. The weather was beautiful, and the park magnificent. It was originally purchased by Mr. G. Hudson, the railway king, but when he so suddenly failed it was bought by the Lon desborough family. The grounds were arranged in the best possible form for a fete champetre. The lower portion of the park presented the appearance of a fair, for not only were there booths in abundance, but numerous representatives of the game of " Aunt Sally," and similar amusements. The sham fight occupied a considerable time. The corps taking part in it included the East Riding artillery and Yorkshire riflemen. After the mound in front of the tents had been captured by the riflemen, the whole body of volunteers ad journed to dinner, which was provided for nearly 3,00 persons in an extensive shed erected for the purpose. Lor d Londesborough occupied the chair, and amongst those pre sent were Lord Wenlock, Capt. and the lion. Mrs. Eger ton, Lord and Lady Muncaster, Admiral Dun m icomrsbe. , Mr. Ch r istopher Sykes, M.P., M r. C. L. Fox, and ot The toasts after dinner were purely of a formal character.
