The Imperial Hotel Company has been formed, with Limited Liability under the Act of last Session, for the purpose of building a large Hotel, on the principle of the great Hotel du Louvre, Rue Rivoli, Paris. Parliament having purchased a site for a new National Gallery at Kensington, the site and adjacent ground new oc cupied by the National Gallery, Trafalgar Square, is in every respect one of the finest and most appropriate that could be selected in London for such an Hotel. As investments for capital, such undertakings have proved highly successful. The leading capitalists in Europe and America have united in promoting them. The Great Western Hotel in London, on the same principle, has proved to be a highly remunerative investment ; the net profits in the last division were 31 per cent. per annum, and the dividend was at the rate of 25 per cent. per annum. The Shares have about doubled in value, and, although it has not been in ope ration two years, it is too small to meet the daily applications for accommodation. The profits of the IMPERIAL HOTEL, from its superior situation and many other advantages, will be at least equal to the 'most lucrative undertakings of a similar nature. A Bill giving powers to the Company, with reference to the site in Trafalgar-square, has been read a second time in'the House of Commons. An instalment of 2/. per share is required to obtain com plete registration with limited liability; bat should that or the site not be obtained the deposit will be returned to the Shareholders, le-s a sum not exceeding 3s. per share on ac count of expenses. Applications for Shares may be made in the annexed form, addressed to the Brokers, Messrs. Helbert, Wagg, and Co., 1 Shorter's-court, Throgmorton-street ; or Me srs. Barnett, Ellis, and Co., 18, Finch-lane ;or to the Secretary, 4, White ;orpr xt ev ess io l u s s . previously Barclay, maderclay, with- Bevan, Messrs ; but no a pp lication will be considered unless a Deposit of it. for fig, Strand the Bankers of th e C ompany.

Co., per Share payable after allotment, and will be repaid in the event of the application not being acceded to ; and no further call will be made until the agreements for the purchase of the site have been settled. Prospectuses and Forms of Application for Shares may be obtained of the Brokers or the Secretary, H. DAVIDSON, Secretary. Offices, 4, Whitehall. FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SHARES.

HEAD OFFICE—NO. 5, St. Andrew-square, Edinburgh. The Assured or Members are the only parties interested in the Funds of this Institution, which now amounts to uewards of THREE MILLIONS STERLING. The Society's claims to public confidence and support are grounded mainly on the sound and equitable principles of its constitution, and on the care and coccess with which its operations, have been con ducted from their commencem ent u p to the present time. While the Prern;urns are not higher than those required by many other Offices, the Society does not pretend to compete with those which hold out the attractions of cheap rates, whether as being the lowest which are compatiMe with safety, or as being based on what Is termed the " HALF-CREDIT SYSTEM." There being no Proprietai y, however, those of the Assured vita by the terms of their policies are entitled to participate in the Profits of the Society, are the only parties who derive benefit from the rates beim; mere than what are found from time to time to be required to meet the actual risks ; and the result of past allocations of Surplus I' , ofits has been such that in the case of all the earlier which have become claims within the last few years, the amounts paid to the representatives et deceased Members have been atom THAN DOUBLE THE SUMS ORIGINALLY ASSURE. In cases where family provision is the sole object this result cannot fall to be considered as of the most satisfactory nature ; while in other instances where the partes are desirous of securing benefit from the Surplus Payments DURING THEIR OWN LIVES, instead of allowing the Bonus to remain an addition to the Assurance payable at death, the alternatives practicable under the laws of the office have been cam " mensurate in degree. In many cases, in consideration of en aban donment of the reversionary claia a for Bones Additions already de clared, such parties have tither recei ved large payments in PRESENT CASH, or have been LONG AGO ENTIRELY RELIE'v'EV FROM FURTHER 44wigalgireaae Policies still remaining eattAled to partici 11l astrations of the application of Bonita on 'either 'ortne - msem, above referred to are contained in the Society's Prospectu , es, which, together with Forms of Proposal, &c., may he had on application at the Head Office, or to any of the Agents in the three kingdoms.

[A part of the following appeared in our impression of yesterday.] The Board of General officers reassembled this morn ing at the Royal Hospital, Chelsea, at the usual hour. the intention o n his stated merelymatteropinion yesterdaythatwas part when o r f t her Majesty's Government to institute proceedings to discover who were the parties to blame for want of " promptitude and ingenuity" in devising shelter for the horses. He stated yesterday there were two subjects omitted from this report —one the mortality in a few of the regiments, and the other details which perhaps the Commissioners ought not to have inquired into, but which, however, were very useful to the Government. He be lieved the Commissioners' signatures were affixed to the first report on the 2Gth of January, and to the second on the 2d of February. He could not account for the want of the dates in the printed report. The signatures of the commissioners were net affixed to the report some months subsequent to the interviews and discus sion with the Minister for War on this subject, but about three weeks before the meeting of Parlia ment, and during the time Lord Panmure was confined to his house. No copies of the evidence taken before the Sebastopol Committee were sent to them in the Crimea. They had a knowledge of the evidence that was given before that committee through the London newspapers, but they had no official communication on the subject. He first saw an official copy of the Sebastopol Commit tee's report in his own office at the War-office, after his return from the Crimea, but when he first saw it as a private paper be could not say. .He was unable to say whether he read in the newspapers Lord Lucan's ev . dente before the Sebastopol Committee. His report was drawn up on the evidence taken by the Commissioners, and - avid-wee_ taken -,by - Put . ,Sebastopol Committee. The evidence in the Crimea was taken on board a vessel in Balaklava harbour, specially ap pointed for that purpose, but unfortunately they had not the assistance of a short-hand writer, and the consequence was the evidence had to be greatly con densed, and afterwards bad to be forwarded to the witnesses for their approval, when additions and subtractions were made to and from the evidence before the witnesses signed it. He had the original minutes of the evidence with the officers' signatures. Lord Lucan—Then, Colonel Tulloch, the minutes are not a faithful report of all that was said or passed be tween the examiner and the witnesses ? Colonel Tulloch—lt is, with a few exceptions,—that of the alterations made by the witnesses themselves. He said, in answer to a question from Lord Lucan, that as Sir John M‘Neil was in confidential communication with the Government, he would be the best person to inform the Board if there were other instructions given the Commissioners by the Minister at War than those included in the report. He was in the confilence of Sir J. M'Neil as much as 'could be between two men engaged in the same duties, but Sir J. MiNeil was an older servant of the Crown than he was, and was in constant communication with the Government on other matters. He declined giving an opinion whether or not Sir J. M'Neil, who is a civilian, was capable ofconducting an inquiry affecting the conduct of general and other mili tary officers. Lord - Lucan—lf you had known the inquiry was to have been into the conduct of generals and other officers, do you think that your past experience, antecadent4, and position qualified you for undertaking such an enquiry ? Col. Tulloch— Certainly not, and I expressed my doubts on undertaking it, whether some officer of greater experience ought not to be sent out to conduct this inquiry. Lord Lucan—Why did you not examine Lord Raglan? Col. Tulloch—Sir J. 111`Neil and myself had many in terviews with General Airey respecting it, who said his opinion was that it would not become an officer of his (Col. Tulloch's) rank to examine an officer of the high position of Lord Raglan. Another reason for their not doing it was that the Commissioners did not hear a word breathed against Lord Raglan by any person in the Crimea, Under these circumstances the Commissioners thought it unnecessary to examine him. If Sir J. M‘Neil had been of a different opinion, and had thought it necessary to examine Lord Raglan, he (Col. Tulloch) should have sent home to the Government, and asked to have had a general officer associated with the Com missioners to have enabled them to have examined Lord Raglan. If they had examined Lord Raglan, it would have been the first instance on record where Commis sioners had examined into the conduct of a General commanding an army. Examination continued—He saw but few horses of the allies under cover in the Crimea, late as his visit was there. He was not aware of the contrary, but he believed the Russian horses in the valley of Inkerman were not under cover in November. Russian horses were very different to English horses, and could stand the Climate better. He could not say whether the Rus sians and our allies displayed more ingenuity and promp titude in providing shelter than the English. It was necessary, on account of the bad weather, that the horses in the Crimea under cover should be moved as often as possible. Certainly oftener than every two or three days. Had they been changed oftener it would have been better. From what he had been told in the Crimea he was of opinion that temporary shelter by dig ging pits and trenches for the horses might have been provided. Colonel Tulloch again denied that there was any animadversion in the, report on Lord Lucan ; the remarks objected to by his lordship merely stated the Commissioners opinion of want of promptitude and ingenuity in devising temporary shelter, leaving it to be subsequently ascertained who was the party to blame. Lord Lucan said that if Col. Tulloch would relieve him from all blame he should be satisfied, and there would be an end of the matter so far as he was concerned. Col. Tulloch said it was the duty of the Commissioners to point out defects to the Government, leaving them to find out who were the parties to blame. Examination continued—He did not inquire who was the Engineer officer placed at Lord Lucan's dispo sal by the Quartermaster-General for providing shelter, nor had he examined him on that point. He had seen trenches dug and earthworks thrown up in the High lands to shelter cattle in the winter, that was all the experience he had had of sheltering horses in that way. He believed that was the practice adopted in the Pampas. He examined Mr. Rawlinson and not a military engi neer, because he was sent out by the Government to inquire into, examine, and make arrangements for the establishment of a camp in that country. The Commissariat Department lost some horses, but not to the extent that had been stated. He thought the nature iof these duties had been exaggerated. He was con sulted with reference to the organisation of the Ambu lance Corps, but it was not carried out by the Govern ment in accordance with those suggestions. In the Crimea he made no inquiries respecting this corps. If canvas was necessary for the covering of the horses, it was a matter of opinion whether it should have been provided by the civil authorities at home. It might have been had if necessary from Constantinople, as well as spars, carpenters, &c., in ninety hours. It was also a matter of opinion whether, when wooden shelter was sent out for the men, similar shelter should have been sent for the horses. To use trenches for horses, in a wet season, they should be paved, and there was no difficulty in doing it in the Crimea. Some of the regiments did it. He could not say if stone enough for 12,000 horses could have been found on the plateau, but there was plenty of stone a short distance off. Lori Lucan—Did you satisfy yourself that there were materials and labour wherewith to shelter the horses, before you wrote that paragraph, attributing want of promptitude and ingenuity, and to which I take ex ception ? Col. Tulloch—l did satisfy myself, by the Quarter master-General's answers, that there was no diffi culty, so far as I could see, except that of labour, in providing shelter ; and that labour appeared principally to apply to the Turkish soldiers not being good work men. I certainly considered that there was a certain amount of cavalry available for the construction of shel ter. With regard to the tools, I now learn there was a greater deficiency than I expected. I only thought it was a partial deficiency, confined to one or two regi ments. I knew sufficient timber had arrived on the 25th November. Lord Lucan—lf you had knoven there were neither materials nor labour available, should you have framed your report differently? Colonel Tulloch—l am not aware that I should. It is probable, if I had known it to a greater extent, we should have been more particular in pointing out another department as in fault. Lord Lucan—l shall not examine Colonel Tulloch rther. General Peel put some questions to Colonel Tulloch, ST. JAMES'S PALACE, APRIL D.

He said that if he had taken the averages of the deaths at five months, instead of six or seven, the mortality might have appeared to exceed the actual number of animals in the Crimea. The averages published by the commis sioners were correct according to the returns furnished them. Lord Lucan—Were you ever deterred from or dis• couraged in any way by any. act of mine in giving shelter to the horses of your brigade, but, on the contrary, did I noeurge you and every other .officer to provide shelter for the horses as far as possible ? General Scarlett—Yes, you never discouraged me or any other officer, bat, on the contrary, was anxious that every shelter possible should be provided for the horses. In answer to another question from Lord Liman, Gen. Scarlett said—l don't think more promptitude or inge nuity could have been displayed by your lordship and the other officers in command of the cavalry in the position we were then placed.. If so I should have thought it my duty to, have stated that fact to your lordship at the moment. Cel. Douglas was then recalled by Lord Lucan, and, in reply to the same questions, gave similar answers to those of General Scarlett. Col. Tulloch then put a question to Cot Douglas on his evidence given beforathe commissioners, wherein h stated; he made no suggestion to Lord Lucan that he could have put up temporary shelter with sail-cloth in a few days, to which he replied that he did not consider it necessary to make any suggestion to Lord Lucan to that effect, having no materials. It was certainly his duty as an officer to make suggestions to his superior. C Tulloch—Did not the omission of such a sugges tion show want of ingenuity on your part ? Col. Douglas—No, I don't think it did. (Laughter.) I had not the command of the cavalry. It was the duty of the Ge4erals of ThTleiono the Quartermaster General or even Lord ItlaglWWlstilf,74#&-esdeer was certanly not the-d.4ors.n officer in regiment. By the Judge-A.dvocate-General—He attributed the great toss of horses to want of food, shelter, and the nature of the work, that were not killed in action. The witness retired. Gen. Scarlett was recalled, and in answer to a question from the Judge-Advocate-General, said he attributed the loss of these horses to want of supplies in the Crimea, and the effect of the weather on them previous to that. Lord Lucan said that in consequence of the death of Admirce,Sir D. Dundas's son, that gallant officer could not attend, wid he wished to put in the gallant admiral's an swer to certain queries he (Lord Lucan) had addressed to him. He could do without it, as he intended to call Sir E. Lyons to-morrow. The Judge-Advocate-General said the Court would not receive that evidence to-day. Shortly after 2 o'clock the Court rose, and adjourned till Monday. :RAILWAY TRAFF I C .RETURNS. TRAFFIC RETURNS FOR TEE WEEK. Mile 3 opened, I NAME OF RAILWAY. Receipts. 1856. 1855. BftI'TIEUI.

The Earl of Shaftesbury, who had been annour iced to preside, wrote a letter of apology, stating that tb e recent death of his brotber.in-law, Earl Cowper, prevented his attendance. Mr. Fowler took the chair. The relport, which was of a very favourable character, was re , : eived and adopted, and the meeting was addressed in the Ca ost eloquent terms by Mr. Dakin, the Rev. Mr. Hatch, Joseph Payne, Esq., and a collection was made at the doers. LAD \ lIRTISEMENT.I —Whilst we have constantly to lament the fail iire of medicine to effect the cure even of those dis eases which have been longest known, and have for centuries baffled the labours of surgeons and physicians, it is a cheer ing thi rig to learn, on trustworthy and indubitable autho rity, tl sat science has at length discovered, net a drug, not a naus eating and disgusting compound, but a simple and de lightful article of natural diet, which insures speedy and effec tual reaiof in cases where all other appliances had failed- Fifty taiousand personal testimonies to the efficacy of Da Barry' R ev alenta Arabica Food, give the most substantial reason for encouraging the hope, and we feel justified in say ingio that which we should be reluctant to a e b l s e u ep rd t to the facie of a body of evidence which it would b o gainsay, that there really appears to us to be n d e reas t on why be amo era e por any pecrson, however afflicted, if there tion o f the vital stamina remaining, should now despair of the recovery of health and vigour. Amongst the diseases which have been removed, at various degrees of obstinate in veteracy, by the use of M es srs : Du Barry's Food, we find d ys p el9 , s ia (indigestion) , const i pation, functional irregularity, obstruxtions, acidity, cramps, spasms, fits, heartburn, diar rhoea, nervousness, biliousness, affections of the liver and kidneys, flatulency, detention, palpitation of the heart, ner vous "headache, deafness, noises in the head and ears, giddi ness, pains between the shoulders, and in almost every part of the , body, chronic inflammation and ulceration of the sto mach, eruptions on the skin, scurvy, fever, scrofula, impuri ties, ? poverty of blood, consumption (if no t beyond human aid), dropsy, rheumatism, gout, influenza, grippe, nausea an d vomiting during pregnancy, after eating, or at sea, low spirits, spleen, general debility, paralysis, cough, asthma, tightness across the chest, phlegm, inquietude, sleepless ness, involuntary bluebing, tremors, dislike to society, unfit ness for study, delusions, loss of memory, vertigo, blood to the head, exhaustion, melancholy, groundless fear, indecision, wretchedness, thoughts of self-destruction, &c. We must admit that it was at first with some degree of scepticism we heard the descriptions of the surprising !cures accamplished by the use of this preparation ; but looking over the quality of the testimony, the names and characters of the persons who join in giving it, the consistent and candid tone of the parties to it, and, above all, the facility afforded by Messrs. Du Barry for communicat ing with any of the parties, doubt and misgivings are irresti bly converted into perfect confidence ; and we recognise the presence of an agent of illimitable good to humanity—a power which, as it becomes known, must work a mighty and salutary revolution in the physical conditions of civilised communities.

MANSION-HOITSE. —Ferdinand Leaden; a fo reigner, was brought before Alderman Wire upon a remarkable charge. Mr. John Lipscomb, clerk to Mr. Henry Pearson Maples, of No. 5, Arthur-street, said—On the 25th of March I received from the traffic manager of a railway with which the firm is connected a letter in the prisoner's handwriting, requiring compensation for the loss of a carpet-bag, and two or three days afterwards I saw him, and he told me he bad registered his carpet bag in Paris, paging the customary fee of one shilling. I had then the ticket in my possession, and I showed it to him. He observed to me that he had had two bags, one of which he had registered, and the other he bad wearing round him as a pouch ; and he also raid that be bad not seen the carpet bag after he had left Paris, but a com panion of his voyage had told him that his bag was out side the Custom-house at Newhaven, and he had better take it. He mentioned that he told his friend that his bag having been registered for London he had no con trol over it till it reached London. I told him that every endeavour had been made to recover his bag, and that we should persevere in our efforts. He afterwards called two or three times, and on one occasion he pro duced an invoice which bad been given back to him, and which he stated was a receipted invoice of articles he had purchased at Chester, and which he had been obliged to purchase in consequence of the loss of his carpet bag and its contents. He asked me then to pay him 10/. on account of the 191. which he claimdcl as com pensation for his lost bag and clothes, I returned him his invoice, and told him I could make no arrange. ment of that kind. On the 29th of March he called again, and all efforts to find the bag were unavailing. I, believing that be had really lost his bag, offered him as a compromise the sum of 101., which he accepted, and for which he gave me a receipt. We have ascertained that he subsequently made a claim for the balance of his demand to the managers of the French Railway, between which and the English Railway there exists an arrange ment. Alderman Wire—Has the registered bag been found ? Witness—lt has been found in the prisoner's posses sion. I shall be able to prove that the bag produced by the officer who apprehended the prisoner bears the coun terpart of the ticket for the bag upon which the prisoner claimed this compensation. I present last night at the prisoner's lodgings at 40, King William-street, City, when the bag produced was found in the chamber occu pied by him. There has been au attempt to obliterate the indication on the ticket, but the identity has not been destroyed. Its contents, which consisted of cloth ing and documents, were examined, and the bag was found to have the custom-house nark upon it. A metropolitan detective officer who took the prisoner into custody said that some of the clothes which the preotker eleael. got *._Cittter,..,at4d rjiirtjA3B4ns been paid for, were fomid in are bwr, .na requeiteZ that time should be allowed to get together the witnesses. Alderman Wire said that the officer should be supplied with all the necessary facilities for completing a case of such public importance, and remanded the prisoner, who by the advice of his solicitor made no answer to or com ment upon the e..iarge. WORSHIP-STREET. — William Barber was charged on remand with stealing 6 sovereigns from the person of Mrs. Matilda Wright, in one of the Stoke Newington omnibuses. The evidence given on the former occasion was, that on Monday, the 7th inst., the prisoner entered the vehi cle on its starting for town, taking his seat next the door. Mrs. Wright, who resides at Dalston, got in at Kings land-gate, and took the only vacant sitting by his side. Prisoner apps _red busy during the journey reading a v e.v.paper, and alighted near Shoreditch Church. Mrs. Wright almost instantly missed 6 sovereigns from her dress-pocket, which had been cut by some sharp instru ment, the porte-monnaie containing the gold being still in the pocket. Jones, the conductor of the omnibus, deposed to the accused being a frequent passenger of his to and from town, and gave such such information as led to his appre hension three days after the robbery. Another lady, named Abbott, was now in attendance to describe a precisely similar depredation upon her in one of the Kingsland omnibuses a few weeks since by a man in every respect answering the description of the prisoner, who, from his sober suit and white neckcloth, she mistook for a Dissenting minister. His features, as on the other occasion, were concealed by an unfolded newspaper, which partly covered her dress, as he ap peared intent on reading it ; but after he alighted she found her dress cut and a silk purse, containing seven sovereigns and some silver, was missing. Inspector Drennan, of the G division, said that he had known the prisoner for many years to have been carrying on this system of plunder, and he had frequently seen him tried at the sessions and charged at the police courts. Witness believed he had been transported, but could not at present adduce evidence on that point. Mr. Hat/mill intimated his intention to further re mand the accused. MARLBOROUGH-STREET.—Mr. Frederick New ell/tam, the historical painter, was brought to this court for the purpose of having the magistrate's order to re move him to a lunatic asylum, the unfortunate gentle man having recently manifested unequivocal symptoms of aberration of intellect, which renders restraint an indiepsosable proceeding. A. day or two ago Mr. Newenham went into Mr. Graves's shop, and used such threats as led Mr. Graves to believe that some mischief would result in Mr. New enham being at large. An application, it was under stood, was made to Bethlehem Hospital, but there were difficulties in the way which prevented the authorities from receiving him. The asylum at Peckham was then applied to, and arrangements were made for sending him there. The delusion under which Mr. Newenham labours appears to be of a very singular character. One of leis mania is, that he conceives himself to be the firl historical painter in the world ; another, that he has discovered the way to pay off the national debt ; and a third, that he is the Prince Imperial of Austria. The following letter, among other epistles to high personages, was directed to Lord Palmerston : " 72, Newman-street, the 16th day of Ai " Beloved and most respected Lord,—l believe I possess the means of clearing off the national debt at one fell swoop. I know not as yet of the means I may possess of doing so, but will convey the precise position I am in in a week from this, when I will communicate with you through the Emperor of Austria. "My dear and most respected lord, your truly hutnble servant, " FREDERICK NEWENHAM, " Prince Imperial of Austria. The Viscount Palmerston." Whin brought to this court Mr. Balderston and Mr. Tucker, the late and present district surgeons, were tilled on to pronounce upon the state of his mind. Mr. Newenham, who appeared with a' smiling counte nance, and conversed freely and with seeming ration ality, expressed his desire to make his plan for paying ff the national debt publicly known, as that would serve to convince the world that he was in possession of his rational faculties. Mr. Newenham having been encouraged to explain himself sa4l—Belonging as he did to the House of Haps burg, and born as his registry would prove in the year ten thousand and two, his bi-reditary revenues as Prince of Prussia amounted to a million a year, or thereabouts— he could not speak as to a pound or two more or less. This revenue he proposed to allow to accumulate - for 100 years at compound interest, and this, according to his calculation, would produce such a sum as would enable him to pay off the national debt slap, and leave him a trifle or so of a few hundred millions to devote to other patriotic purposes. He hoped the explanation he had now given would sufficiently show the state of his intel lects. The medical gentlemen having given their certificates, Mr. Bingham made the usual ostler, and Mr. Newen ham was removed in the company of two lunatic asylum keepers. THAMES.—Mr. Charles Clarke, the landlord of the Royal Oak public-house, in Plummer's-row, White chapel, wag charged with having his house open for the sale of spirituous liquors and beer after 12 o'clock on Saturday night last. After hearing the evidence, Mr. Selfe said—l have no hesitation in saying that if there were no other grounds for taking out the summons than those mentioned it might have been spared. Pub- Beans must have a reasonable time allowed them to clear their houses, and police-officers, who are public servants, should not prefer frivolous and vexatious informations against any one. A deputation from the Associate Institution for Im proving and Enforcing the Laws for the Protection of Women had an interview yesterday with Lord Robert G r osvenor, M.P., at hi s res id ence i n P ar k- s t ree t, on the provisions of a bill for the more effectual suppression of brothels. The deputation consisted of the Rev. W. G. Cookesley, M.A., Rev. R. Plumptre, M. A , Mr. J. E. Davis, barrister-at-law ; Mr. W. Shaen, M.A., solicitor ; and Mr. Newman, the secretary.
