Tenth—At the currant rate of premium on gold, they pay over 9 per cent. interest. The immense importance to the wltole world of the above lnterpriso induces us to publish the entire prospectus of the company. Wo are gratified to learn that the house of Norton and Co., American bankers, have made arrange ments to introduce these bonds iu Europe upon the most favourable terms. As there is at present no security of fered which presents so favourable an.opportunity for in vestment, we feel confident that the demand will be fully equal to the expectations of those gentlemen, who are now prepared to pay the July : coupons•at their banking-house, 14, rue Auber, Paris. RAILROAD EARNINGS PER MILE. -- Seventeen railroads in America, all but thr'ee Western, earned dur ing the month of April $6,030,678. This is an increase over the returns for the same month of last year of $334,538. Five of these roads suffered a slight decrease. The aggregate length of these seventeen roads is 7,368 miles ; their average earnings per mile during April were $BlB, an increase of $25 - over the returns for April of last year. The aggregate length of the railroads in England, Scotland, and Ireland is 13,286 miles. Their gross earn ings during the - week ending May 3, 1867, were $3,491,233 in gold. This was an increase over the returns for the same week of last year of $9BOl. The receipts per mile for the week fivers $278 1 4 ,gA, which is a heavier _rate than that on the seventeen American roads of which we have spoken. TILE PACIFIC RAILROAD.—A New York paper says very rapid progress is being made with the work of the Pacific Railroad from this end of the route ; but we learn that the energetic Californians are pushing along from the other end with even more marvellous rapidity, since their work lies not on the level prairie land, but amid mountain passes and through the tough rock of the Sierra. The great Summit Tunnel, to be 1,660 feet long, had generally been calculated as a 3 or 4 years' job; but, putting in practice the underground tactics which their quartz-mining had taught them, our California friends not only began at both ends, but sunk a shaft in the middle and worked both ends from that. The tunnel was commenced last September, and on the Ist of May had but 681 feet remaining to be taken out. This was disappearing at the rate of 60 feet each week, which rate promises to have it completed in August —eleven months from the start ! The road is now open for busi ness as far westward as Julesburg, 330 miles west from the initial point. The telegraph has been built westward as far as the 385th mile. The President, on the sth inst., accepted this eleventh section and ordered the bonds and patents for lands to be issued to the company. The pre vious section of 40 miles was accepted by the President on the 10th June. Within one month this company has re ceived from the Government bonds to the amount of sl,2Bo,ooo—the subsidy given for the construction of 80 miles of railroad. By the middle of October the iron horse will be mounting the rugged sides of the Rocky Mountains, so the Jacksonville Journal says, and startling the genii of the mountains from the slumber of ages. The editor thinks then it would be a fine thing if two, or say three hundred editors, from all parts of the country should join in an excursion to the western terminus of 'the grandest achievement of the age." The various railroad com panies would be sure to give free passes, he thinks, and we dare say he is right ; he is lamentably wrong when he offers us this bewitching inducement in a circular : " or, if the Indians should continue belligerent, we might join General Sherman on a short expedition, and each be allowed to take and bring away a trophy of valour in the shape of the scalp of a redskin." If the editor of this journal makes one of the party, he will insist,. in the interest of humanity and civilisation, that the editor of the Jacksonville ✓ournal be allowed to go no further than Omaha, or at the very furthest Fort Kearney.—The Nation. The Boston, Hartford, and Erie Railroad Com pany is reported to have arranged with the Erie Railway and the Pennsylvania Coal Company to indorse its bonds for 57,000,000. This sum, with the three millions granted by the State of Massachusetts, will suffice to complete the unfinished links between Willimantic and Mechanicsville, and between Waterbury and Pishkill. _ _ Late Colorado papers state that the railroad con nection between the Pacific Railroad at Crow Creek and Golden City, in the mining regions of Colorado, will be completed in May, 1868. The calculated approximate distance from the Union Pacific Railroad, Omaha Branch, on Crow Creek, to Golden City, by the first route, is about eighty-four miles; and Ly the South Platte and Clear Creek 'Valleys to Golden City, about ninety-eight miles. The length of the proposed branch to Denver is about seven miles. The Cincinnati Gazette says the railroad men who have been negotiating in the interest of the Pennsylvania Central Railroad, to get control of a through line from Philo delpha to St. Louis, have not been able to obtain pos session of the Indianopolis and Terre Haute Railroad, althnugh they have secured the Terre Haute and Alton Road. From California we have the information that the Central Pacific Railroad is being pushed forward with energy. There are 16,000 workmen employed in grading ; the tunnel, 1,658 feet long, will be completed in August, and the road over the Sierra Nevada mountains will be finished in November. The recent strike of the Chinese labourers only caused a suspension of work for one day. The business of the road for Juno largely exceeded that in May, the gross receipts being $122,00 0 in coin. /;, a~ ~ PRICE.... 4d. STAMPED 15d. ground and tank store into the Victualling-yard.

THEIR FIRST MORTGAGE BOND AS AN INVESTMENT. The rapid progress of the Union Pacific Railroad, now building west from Omaha, Nebraska, and forming, with its Western Contmetions, an unbroken line across the con= tinent, attracts attention to the value .of the first mort gage bonds which the company now offer to the public. The first question asked by prudent investors is, " Are these bonds secure P" Next, "Ate they a profitable-invest ment To reply in brief t--First=-The early completion of the whole great line to the Pacific is as certain as any future business event can be. The Government grant of over twenty million acres of land and fifty million dollars in its own bonds practically guarantees it. One.fourth of the work is already done, and the track continues to be laid at the rate of WO miles a day: Second-'ho 'Union Pacific Railroad ben& are tented upon what promises to be ono of the most profitable lines of railroad in the coun try. For many years it must be the only line eonnecting the Atlantic and Pacific; and being Whited CoMpetition ) it can inaiutaiti remunerative rates. Third—Three httn= Bred and seventy-six miles of this road are finished and fully equipped With depots, lodoinotiVed, Cars, &c., and twu trains aro daily running each way. The materials for the remaining 141 miles to the eastern base of the Rocky Mountains aro on hand, and it is tinder euntract ttt be done in September. rottrtlaThe net earnings of the sections already finished are seVertd times greateithan the gold interest upon the rtst Mortgage lima upon such sections, and if not another mile of the road trete built, the part already completed Would not only pat interest and expenses-, but be profitable ttl the tioinpahy. Fifth—Tire Union Paiiiti Railroad Bonds can be issued only as the read progresses, and, therefore, can never be in the market unless they represent a bona fide property. Sixth—Their amount is strictly limited by law to a sum equal to what is granted by the United states Government, and for which it takes a second lien as its security. This amount upon the first 617 miles west from Omaha is only $16,000 per mile. Seventh—The fact that the United States Government considers a second lien upon the road a good investment, and that some of the shrewdest railroad builders of the country have already paid in $5,000,000 upon the stock (which is to them a third lien), will inspire confidence in a first lien. Eighth—Although it is not claimed that there can be any better securities Ulan Govern ments, there are parties who consider first mortgage upon such property as the very best security in the World, and COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL. Yesterday a meeting of the Common Council was held at Guildhall for the despatch of business, the Lord Mayor presiding. THE ATTEMPT ON THE LIFE OF THE CZAR. The Town Clerk (Mr. Woodthorpe) read a com munication from Baron Brunnow, the Russian ambassador, enclosing the following despatch from the Chancellor, Prince Gortcha3ow " Petersburgh, June 22, 1867.

His proposed Resolution on going into Committee, decl arin g the inadequacy of the scheme of Redistribution contained in the Reform Bill and the propriety of extending it, was rejec ted by 100 to 59 votes. No intimation of opinion could be more decisive, and it must be observed that it was based solely on the demerits of Lord Halifax's motion. There was literally no argument whatever against it. Lord Malmesbury, who in the enforced absence of Lord Derby-, represents the Government in the House of Lords, rose to answer Lord Halifax, ai.d he thought it coavenient to reply to Lord Car narvon's and the Duke of Argyll's criticisms on the cousistency of the Ministry. He was pathetic in repudiating the suggestion that he was an "orga nised.hypocrite ;" but as to all Lord Halifax had urged, Lord Malmesbury passed it by with the ob servation that we were near the end of July, and great respect was due to the House of Commons. This method of parrying an assault might not have succeeded on other occasions, but no reply whatever was needed to Lord Halifax. His arguments were unanswerale, but his conclusions were unworthy , of acceptance. It is true—no one can deny it— that the Redistribution scheme of the bill isth in t ade- it qu ate ; it is -true—no one can deny a is desirable it s hould be extended ; b u t the for mal expression of these abstract truths, point ing to no definite line of action, indicating no articular form of extension, was an act of self stultification from which the House of Lords very properly recoiled, and the rejection of Lord Hali fax's resolution was due at once to their good sense and their sincerity. It is much to be regretted that at a later period of the evening the same prudence w as not exhibited. Lord C a irns persuaded the Lords to raise the q ualification of the .Lodger Fran chise from £ lO to £l5. Lord Maltnesbury, who y difference had so strenuously de p recated an of of opinion between the two Houses on the question Redistribution, assentedo talteration as a com s - promise, because in the Bill of 1859 a vote wa offered to the tenant, not of unfurnished lodgings worth £lO a year, but of furnished lodgings worth £2O. This decision, and. the subsequent rejection of the clause reducing the Copyhold and Leasehold Property Franchises in counties, exhibit such a spirit of elaborate trifling with the subject of Re form as to make the best friends of the Lords ap prehensive as to the wisdom of their future treat ment of the bill. It is pleasant to turn to the earlier part of the evening. We hope the Government h av i n g vindicated their ho nour will take the ques tion of Redistribution seriously in hand. Lord Hali fax and his Resolution are removed out of their way. In spite of all his ingenuity—and he displayed an unexpected power of manipulating his argu ments —he could not overcome the essential vice of his proposal. Its abstract and unpractical character was apparent in every turn of his speech. It was plainly impossible that he should invite the Lords to agree to his reso lution without hinting at some suggestions for carrying it into force, and the dex terity with which he contrived to refer to several me thods of Redistribution without pledging hi to any was admirable. He pillaged freely—we are afraid no other term can adequately describe re - his m ethod—from Mr. Laing an d Lord Grey, and ferred occasionally to the bills of 1854 and 1866. He called attention, as was inevitable, to the insig nificant character of the smallest boroughs ; and remarked that they might beg rouped, but he him self would not commit himself to any proposal of groupina ;_ or they might be disfranchised, though he must ' decline to be supposed to advocate dis franchisement ; or there might be a third method of treatment, although he must be excused from de scribing or even pledging himself to the existence of such a third method. Then, again, on th . eTepre - t sentation of minorities, w hich is an i csse d nti!ll ai F f a a r x of the question of Redistribution, ul o t r II It was, die an equally delightful amhbaig hey. at the must al): he declared, no party quclitioti,. t same it stain time e l t r e p se ress v i h n e g favoured any opi i t o h n e ° r u e p s ; entation of minorities could not fail to perceive that the adoption of li nt of would be a step towards the attainment of the end thay had in view. It is odd that any one should be able to per suade himself that anything was ever got by such ingenious manoeuvring as this. It justifies the s i mp le theory of Lord Malmesbury. The Lord Privy Seal, remembering the agitation of 1832, be lieves that the Reform Act of that year was a magi cal device for exciting the enthusiasm of the people on behalf of the Whigs. For a time it was success ful, and when the love of the nation waxed cold the Whigs naturally thought of kindling again the pas sionate affection of 1832 by raising a second time a cry for Reform. This is Lord Malmesbury's philo sophy of history, and it must be admitted that Lord Halifax.and his resolution do in some sort excuse it. But we have done with both ; Lord Halifax retires discomfited from his attempt, and now that his in genuity and Lord De Grey's fluent commonplace have both proved ineffectual for any purpose, we invite the Government once more "to dish the Whigs." Let them take Redistribution in hand. It was, in fact, admitted by Lord Malmesbury last night that the present scheme is inadequate and a makeshift, since he dwelt upon the advanced period of the Session and the supposed compromise in the House of Commons as the sole reasons against enlarging it. These co nsiderations would at once become of no weight whatever if the Government desired to make their bill per fect. The House of Commons has assented to the present scheme • b u t every one who fol lowed the debates in the 'Lower House, and watched the growth of opinion in it, is well aware that the Commons would accept with satisfaction such an extension of the scheme as would give it the pro mise of permanence. There can be no doubt about the temper of the House of Commons, nor need any -~-z vr4 r-avql...WitY - 57 - apprehension be felt of delay as c 401entrod -- /4/4.7 amendment of the Redistribution c with the Government and the Governtnqo ale' te z. — insure a speedy and statesmanlike extenllih o . eir „ scheme of Redistribution. It may be forced upon them if they resist,—the vote of night offering no criterion of what would happen should a definite proposal be submitted to the House of Lords—and in such a case delays must arise; but if, jealous of the character of the bill and ambitious of making it as perfect as possible, they assume the initiative, if they boldly determine on carrying out those sug gestions of improvement, at which Lord 11-difax only ventured to hint, they will find the two houses ready to co-operate with them to the utmost, and they would secure for themselves well-earned ap proval. The decision on Lord Halifax's resolution has cleared the way for the G wernment. It has been made plain that the Lords will - countenance no ab stract Resolution, and will be parties to. no motion which can be construed as a party device ; but it has opinion n iio iade l n lofttie eq ua l ly ul)p pl er ; i ti o n th use at h are decide au and favour of an extension of the Redistribution scheme. Lord Maltnesbury and the Duke of Buckingham were, in fact, the only Peers who took part in the debate who ventured to defend the existing clauses, and the lat ter contented himself with repeating his colleague's apprehension that any alteration might produce a collision between the two Houses of Parliament. The unsubstantial character of this fear is apparent, and when we contrast this argument with the rea sons for amending the scheme of Redistribution ad vanced from all quarters of the House we must see how overwhelming is the balance in favour of exten sion. The disparity between the representative power of the smallest boroughs and the largest, anomalous now, must be aggravated by .tho adop tion of household suffrage, while the unrepresented boroughs which were selected by the Government in the first and second editions of their bill for en franchisement, but afterwards relegated to obscurity, having had the privilege of representation held out to them, must become impatient and clamorous for a share in Parliamentary honours. AboVe all, theprin ciple of numbers, so formally approved in eirery clause of the bill, cannot, as Lord Carnarvon pointed out, ceased to stimulate agitation. Boroughs have been deprived of one of two representatives on account of inadequacy of numbers; boroughs have received a third member on account of their numbers • counties have been subdivided, and new boroughs itave been called into existence for a similar reason. The process thus sanctioned cannot be arrested as longas flagrant anomalies remain. It is incumbent on the Ministry to recognise this truth, and to regulate in time the forces they cannot overcome. They have an oppor tunity of doing all about which the ex-officials who sit opposite to them talk, and of: displaying a degree of foresight of which too few of their antagonists show any sign. The mischievous alteration of the Lodger Franchise has damped our hopes, but we appeal to the calmer reason of the Ministry. Lord Halifax and Lord De Grey both took occasion last night to maintain the usefulness of small constitu encies at the very time that their prime arguments led them to the conclusion that small constituencies must be extinguished, and they carefully abstained from indicating any method of preserving the advan teaxgtiesn c t t h io ey n. no w li steleleurGeoinvetrinlemiennetvibteabeloenetevnent ttoofletthtehier s r as e d t i h s e t r f i redistribution i s q e question e be thepla played i must h u b s t y b t e h e a t r w ri val hole sale disfranchisement of small boroughs without any compensating improvements in our representative system. There is a better alternative before them. Let them follow the precedents shown in the con duct of the bill in the House of Commons. Let them defer to the manifest sentiment of the Lords. We do not speak of hereditary or official opponents. Lord Lifford and Lord Romney, the Duke of Cleve land, Lord Stratford, Lord Harrowby, and Lord Taunton joined in expressing their sense of the in adequacy of the present scheme, and their wish that the Government would reconsider their decision ; and this concurrence of authority is in perfect accordance with the deliberate judgment of the nation. Ea -.,-.7.—.3e•l''' '' FA7AL CA74STIWPLIE ON THE TYNE. _ On Saturday afternoon a party of five men and th re e young women engaged a small boat at Buck ham Quay, North Shields, and started down the Tyne. Some of the party had been indulging ratter f re ely before setting o ff. On approaching the inner pier on the south side, known as the Breaker," where a heavy swell was rolling, the boat was observed to be proceeding in the direction of the broken water. On this being reached the occupants seemed full of glee as their frail craft wag pitched to and fro. They were hailed from the shore and cautioned, but to no ptrpose. They then commenced running the boat in the trough of the sea, and while in the act of pulling the prow towards the shore a tremendous sea caught her stein, lifting her nearly perpendicular. She was then driven like a rocket, scuddling on the crest of the wave, which eventually broke, filling the boat and sinking it. In a few seconds the boats reappeared bottom upwards, and two men were seen clinging to it. Five pilots, who from the shore had seen, and indeed expected, the catastrophe, lost no time in launching a boat, though, in consequence of the force of the waves, they experienced great difficulty. They, however, succeeded in saving two men, whom they took on board. On the way back to the pier they picked up the body of one of the men, and a little further on they recovered the body of one of the women. Al though a number of boats were soon at the scene of the calamity thather bodies were recovered, and it is supposed they must have been carried out to sea. The following is the list of those who met with an untimely death :—Mary Fitzgerald, Elizabeth Clarke, Elizabeth Stewart —all of North Shields. Robert Higgins, John Keating, and Thomas Laird, all seamen of North Shields. Thom as Wilson and Charles Pulmen, also seamen, were the only surd vivors. The unfortunate man Higgins was an old fiddler, and was well known in North Shields. When the boat started he was much the worse for liquor. Charles Pulmen, one of the men who was saved by clinging to the boat, states that immediately he found the boat was sinking he leapt out. On gaining the surface the next thing he saw was the boat capsized and his companions struggling together. One of the girls (he thinks it was Elizabeth Clarke) seized hold of him by the shoulders and held on for a few seconds, when a wave came and washed her away. He then made for the boat, and caught hold as it came botto m up. The other survivor, Thomas Wilson, got hold of the boat about the same time. When the a ccident occurred they were "larking" among themselves by running the boat among the breakers. Some of the girls begged the men not to go out so far, while others were very muc h afraid and we re cr y ing. One of the pilots who saw the boat sail down the Narrows says that when it got among the broken water ho and a num ber of his companions were looking every moment for the boat capsizing. With painful anxiety they watched the motions of the boat among the broken sea. Several could not bear to look at the boat, and walked away " sickened" and horrified at the sight. Immediately, the boat was seen to lift and and drive before the sea it was said she would fill with water. Scarcely a minute elapsed before she disappeared. The occupants of the boat were for a moment hid from sight. A rush was then made by the pilots towards the wa'er's edge, and a coble launched. In running down the steep from the Beacon one of those hastening to the reicue, Henry Stephenson, fell and struck against some stones. So violent was the blow that the palm of his hand was split up the middle and some of his fingers bent right back. This did not deter the gallant fellow from accomplishing his purpose. The young woman whose body has been recovered was enciente. She appeared to be between 18 and 20 years of age. The other victims were also young. -- ___L- - - - =---- --- SINGULAR PEDESTRIAg FEAT.—'On Monday an amateur pedestrian named gollings undertook fora stake of £2O to run over s'x bridges crossing the Tha.t:es within one hour, to commence and finish on the Surrey side o x f th alle river.

On the !notion of Dr. Sauniers, it was ordered that no steps be taken for the removal of the tem porary structure erected in front of Guildhall for the reception of the Sultan, pending the considera tion by the Court of a motion of which he had given notice to retain it till after Lord Mayor's-day. FREEMEN'S ORPHAN SCHOOL. On the motion of Mr. Heath, the Court autho rised an estimated expenditure of £3,000 in altera tions and additions to the buildings of this school, so as to meet the requirements of the full number of 150 children. The Court then adjourned. THE ROYAL PARKS BILL. A conference of Liberal members of Parliament on the subject of the above bill was held last even ing in the tea room of the House of Commons. Mr. J. S. Mill occupied the chair. The following M.P.'s were present :—Mr. Bright, Professor Fawcett, Viscount Amberley, Mr. Torrens, Mr. Hughes, Mr. Locke, Mr. Lewis, Mr. Ayrton, Mr. P. A. Taylor, Mr. Clay, Mr. Maguire, Sir John Gray, Mr. Holden, Mr. White, Mr. Candlish, Mr. Dixon, Mr. Whal ley, Mr. Hadfield, Mr. Stansfeld, Mr. Cowen, Mr. Shaw Lefevre, and Mr. Young. Mr. Beaks and several of the council of the Reform League attended. The CHAIRMAN having explained that the object of the conference was to obtain the views of those within and outside the House of Commons who took an active part in opposing the bill, Mr. BEALES asked permission to make a few ob servations. He thought they must all agree in the propriety of Mr. Locke's motion, but supposing it was defeated he wished to know what course would be pursued by the opponents of the bill. The Re form League did not want to have any demonstra tion unless they were driven to it. They wished it to be understood that Primrose-hill or Victoria-park would not satisfy the working classes as places for open air meetings, and that no place was so central as Hyde-park. He challenged any person to dis prove their right to meet there. Mr. TAYLOR was of opinion that, considering the lateness of the session and other circumstances, they were justified in straining all the forms of the house to procure the defeat of the bill. He consi dered Mr. Locke's amendment satisfactory, and thought there could be no difference of opinion as to its being entitled to support. The CHAJRMAN said there was no doubt they ought to give Mr. Locke's amendment their support, but supposing it failed, the material question arose, What steps should be taken to frustrate the further progress of the bill. (Hear, hear.) Mr. BEALES asked the members present to avail themselves of every form of the house, in the event of the failure of the amendment referred to, to frus trate the bill and save the necessity of proceeding out of the house. If the measure was proceeded. with in its present form the League Would have re course to the strongest proceedings. Professor FAwcurr said if I\lr. Locke's motion was carried their work was done, but if not, union was necessary. He thought it was absolutely neces sary that they should have a certain number of members remain in the house till the last hour every night to watch the action of the, Governtnent in re ference to the bill. He should be very happy to at tend in that way until the end of the session. Mr. TORRENS considered it undesirable to decide prematurely upon a course of action. They were holding a conference with open doors, and he cer tainly thought they were not observing good tactics in letting their opponents know what they would do. If they succeeded, and he had every reason to hope they would from what he heard before entering the room, in carrying Mr. Locke's amendment, their labours were at an end ; but if they were disap pointed, he thought it would be then time enough to consider what they should do next. It appeared to him they should have a discussion suggesting the plain practical consideration what were the alterna tives to be proposed to the Government shutting the parks. They all knew that Lord Shaftesbury pro posed last year that before the Government limited the use of the park to popular purposes, it should take upon itself to provide places suitable to the fair and constitutional exigencies of the metropolis. He agreed with Mr. Beales as to the farce of driving the people to Victoria-park or Primrose-hill; and there fore his motion would be that the Government, be fore they further proceeded with the bill, be asked to show their capability of providing suitable places in the metropolis for open-air meetings. The practical question was above all to urge upon the Government the fact that their bill was defective in its construction, because it suggested nothing as an alternative to what they took away. He believed that on that ground alone, without going into broader questions, they would have a large number of members voting for Mr. Locke's amendment. Mr. WIIALLEY thought their principal duty was to protest against the taking away of one of their undoubted rights. Mr. CANDLISH thought they all agreed in their determination to support Mr. Locke's motion. (Hear, hear.) He considered that any action before the disposal of that motion would be premature. Mr. MERRIMAN (Reform League) said the ques tion was one which the people of the metropolis wished to have settled in a satisfactory wanner. The bill was looked upon by the people as an attempt on the part of the Government to take revenge upon them for having extorted the Reform Bill through the medium of Hyde-park. He was certain that unless Mr. Locke's motion was carried there would be considerable trouble on the part of the authorities. The CHAIRMAN said it seemed to be the intention of the Reform League to adopt measures antago nistic to the bill by meetings and otherwise outside the house, and there was evidently and equally a I strong desire on the part of the members present to do their best in opposing the bill. (Hear, hear.) He believed no member of the League could exceed many members of Parliament in their hostility ate it. to the bill, and in their det ermination to frustr (Cheers.) After some remarks from one or two members of the R e f orm League, the proceedings termina. Naval and Military Intelligence. On Monday tha Board of Admiralty, consisting of the Right Hon. 11. T. L.
