This Company is formed for the purpose of manufacturing Cocoa-Nut Fibre Mats and Matting, under Letter 1862. s Patent granted to George D avies, dated the 24th April, The principal feature of Davies's Invention consists fa the improved pile of the mat, and, owing to the mode of weaving, great durability is given to the fabric at a reduced cost of manufacture. The superiority of articles manufactured by this process over the present method will be well understoc d in the trade when it is stated that matting of all descriptions, and car riage and door mats, Sze., have a thick fibrous pile upon the surf ace hitherto unattained. If no allotment be made, the deposit will be returned in lull. Specimens of the new and improved manufacture may be seen at the offices of the Company, where applications for prospectuses and shares may be made. 91HE LIFE ASSOCIATION OF ENGLAND (Limited).

MacCormstek, Esq. The Directors of the Life Association of England having secured the influence of very valuable connections throughout the United Kingdom, in most of the Colonies of the British Empire, and several Continental countries, and having re ceived promises of subscriptions for a large number of shares, will enter upon the business of Life Assurance on the 15th July next, on which day a compete prospectus, detailing the Plan of the Company's operations, and containing tables of rates, will be issued to the public. Arrangements also have already been absolutely made by Which a large business will be acquired by the Company at once and further negotiations to the same end are far ad vanced. The Directors will further carry out an entire reconstruc tion of the system cf Life Assurance, on a plan devised by their Consulting Referee, by which the Association's business transactions will be rendered perfectly equitable in opera tion, and afford the best security, whilst the Association will be placed in the beg condition to fulfil its future engage ments. The plan in question will be well adapted to the wants of the people, affording, all the a 'vantages of present Life Offices, and some of those of a Bank. It will also ope rate at less risk, less expense, and lower premiums than offices ordinarily constituted. The Directors, therefore, confidently anticipate a very handsome dividend from the first year of business opera tions. The value of Insurance Shares as an Investment, evidenced by the large premiums to which most of them have gradually risen, and the handsome and increasing dividends and bonuses which have been paid upon them, is a fact so well ascertained and acknowledged as to need no comment. Interest will be paid upon the capital at 5 per cent. per annum, until a dividend of larger amount shall have accrued. The liability of the shareholders is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. The Local Boards in the principal Cities and Towns of the United Kingdom will be selected from the most influential shareholders. The sum the Directors have agreed to pay on account of preliminary expenses is merely sufficient to recoup the actual expenditure, which has been regulated throughout with the strictest regard to economy. Prospectuses and all other information may be obtained from, and applications for the remaining shares, and for Agencies, may be made to, the Secretary, at the Office of the Company, or the Bankers, Solicitors, and Brokers before mentioned.

This Company is formed to carry on a trade with the na tives on the West Coast ~f Africa, by bartering Manchester, Glasgow, Birmingham, and other manufactured goods, for Palm Oil, Cotton, Ivcry, Ground Nuts, and the various pro ducts of that great continent ; to throw open to the public thebenefitof that which has hitherto been a close and pro- fitable trade toTfevvTald,Wextendinc , its operations into the interior, to spread at the same time the benefic•al influ ence of commerce and civilisation amongst its dense and active population. It is well known that the African trade, particularly on the great rivers, has hitherto been exclusive, and that la ge fortunes have been realised, wherever the required capital, was at command, by the simple system of barter carried on with the natives. . . At present Palm Oil forms the most important article 01 trade with the whole coast of Africa. The production is un. limited, so much so, that wherever the civilised trader hal not penetrated, the nuts of vast regions of palm trees are left to rot in the forest. The constant demand for Palm Oil in all European markets is such that any quantity can be sold on its arrival in England. '1 he export. of Palm Oil fromlhe Bight of Biafrahas proved to be on the average about 40,000 tons a year, representing a value of about £1,600,000, and this large amount has been col lected by the natives within the small part of coast line from Cape Formosa to the Cameroons, not more than atiout 300 miles. This trade is almost exc usively in the hands of a few English merchants, and is susceptible of very consider able increase. The Bight of Benin is next in importance in the export of Palm Oil ; according to an official report of the trade In 1857, no less than 21,172 tons of Palm Oil, of near £850,000 value, were exported from the factories of Palma, Benin, Lagos, Badagry, Porto Novo, and Whydali. Cotton is generally known to be indigenous to every part of the West Coast of Africa, but particularly so in the coun tries bordering the Bights of Benin and Biafra. In Yoruba C otton forms already one of the staple productions of the ke t • tTY, and great quantities are brought regularly to mar t. , Properly organised a larger supply than hither to ob lis in this could be secured for exportation ; it is computed th at Province alone. 8,000,0001 b. of Cotton are made up an nually into n a ti ve c l oths tor home consumption. The import of Cotton from Africa is steadily increasing. Pidlyin sP de serves the numerous products of Africa one article ecial notice, which has lately been exported in rt n.„. 0 _ creasing quantities ; this is the Palm Nut Kernel, aear‘ t ha t Balm has hitherto been thrown away by the natives value ho e t t, 4 ___ P . alin Oil has been extracted from the fibrous pel very c - 0 1 , 4rrounds the nuts. The value of this kernel is to ecooeraable ; it yields about 30 per cent. oil, equal in trict of L ago . - Nut Oil ; and although the natives in the die a. rude w a y and nq Badagry now manufacture the Nut Oil in very limited.

The weather at commencement was very favourable to the shooting, but towards 11 o'clock the sun was so intensely brigt that the shooting which took place then, until fully an hour aftet wards, was conducted under great disadvan tage. After this time, until the close of the day, there was a gentle breeze and just sufficient sun to make the day agreeable without being oppressive. Two additional acci• dents happened yesterday, John B n ain , let battalion Coldstream Guards, was wounded in his left wrist, just above the wrist, and Private Frank Davis, of Ist battalion Scots Fusilier Guards, was injured in the eght arm and both cheeks from the splinter of a bullet.

The following notice was posted up at various parts of the ground : " 1. Any person firing at the target when the white danger disc is exhibited above it will be fined 10s. "'2. At each firing point are placed two boards, between which competitors will fire at the targets with correspond ing numbers. Any person firing at the wrong target will be fincd 10s. " 3. Any person refusing to pay the fine at once will be excluded from all further competition, and his entrance fees returned," Previous to the markers and officers in charge o firing parties resuming their duties after dinner they were addressed by Colonel Steel on the above notice, and Lord Elcho, M.P., said they were to see that no one discharged a rifle except in the pits provided for the purpose, and with the permission of the officer or non-commissioned officer in charge of the range. An officer had been disqualified from further shooting owing to this cause, and the council had determined to adopt the same measure in each case that came under their notice. This year the association have adopted a new system of marking, consisting of painted discs, white representing a bull's-eye, red a centre, and black an outer. Attached to each disc is a brush, which washes out or paints over each shot, as the case may be, the disc pointing out the exact position of the shot, which the old system of marking by flags did not do. Although the new plan has advantages over the old one, it has one disadvantage in not clearly notifying to the firing point that a man has left hismantlet, for which Lieutenant Gould, of the 12th Surrey Rides, at the solicitation of Lord Elcho, was engaged yesterday in devising a remedy. The public schools competition for the Ashburton Chal lenge Shield caused great excitement, as a large number of the upper ten thousand came down to witness the match. There were eleven representatives of each of the following schools :—Eton, Rugby, Cheltenham, Winchester, Harrow, and Marlborough. The ranges were 200 and 500 yards, five shots at each distance. Eaton won theAshburton Challenge Shield, and Mr. Deedes, of Winchester, Earl Spencer's Cup, value £2O, which was competed for by the best eleven from each school. This prize was won last and the year beforo by Eton. Harrow was the winner of the Ashburton al lenge Shield for the two previous years. The Ashby College corps is only composed of forty merabers.t ,y nchCeliste; The following is the total number of marks o b o a . l v each of the schools :—Eton, 246; Rugby, 2332,d borough, 224 ; Harrow, 229 ; Cheltenham, chester, 223.

The scores made for the other prizes contested for up to the close of the day revealed some excellent shooting, and Capt. Benning, Ist Bedford, headed the score with 20 ; Corporal Hall, Ist York, Sergeant Millard, 11th Middlesex, and Corporal Rudd, Ist Cumberland, each made 18 points at the 200 yards range for the Queen's Prize ; 12 gentlemen made 17 points each; and 63 competitors scored 16 each. For the House of Lords' Prize the following :,were the best scores at 500 yards :—Private W. A..

The running wan target was liberally patronised through out the day. His Grace the Duke of Somerset, K.G. First Lord of the Admiralty, arrived at the Admiralty-house, Portsmouth dockyard, the official residence of Vice- Admiral Sir Michael Seymour, G.C.8., yesterday afternoon, from London, and shortly afterwards, accompanied by Vice-Admiral Sir M. Seymour, and Rear-Admiral Superintendent Geo. Elliott, walked through the dockyard, going on board and minutely inspecting the Enchantress, new Admiralty paddle yacht, Master Commander Petley, and the Royal Sovereign, turret ship. On leaving the latter ves sel, the Duke visited the Warrior dock, in which the iron frigate Hestor is receiving her bilge keels, giving a cursory look as he passed along at No. 4 dock undergoing alterations. From the Warrior dock the duke proceeded in the Admiral's carriage to the site of the intended naval barracks outside the walls of the dockyard and between the north east corner of the yard and the London turnpike road. The ground on which the new barracks will stand will comprise part of the site of the northern portion of the present Portsea fortifications which are about to be levelled. After spending some time there, the Duke re-entered the Admiral's carriage, and, returning to the dockyard, embarked on board the Fire Queen, steam yacht, Master Commander Paul, and crossed over to Osborne on a visit to her Majesty. Vice-Admiral Sir Michael Seymour, G.C.8., Port Admiral and Naval Commander in Chief at Ports mouth, yesterday morning shifted his flag at the fore of H.M.S. Victory from white to red, the flag ship's guns firing the usual complimentary salute on the occasion. It was rumoured yesterday at Portsmouth that the Channel fleet is about to proceed on a cruise in the North Sea, and will probably make a second visit to the Baltic. The Columbine, 4, screw steam-sloop, 669 tons, 150 horse power, Commander T. L. H. Ward, has been refitted at Sheerness, and sailed on Tuesday for the north, for the protection of the Scotch fish eries. Since the Columbine left Sheerness some few weeks ugo on particular service Lumley's new patent rudder, with which the vessel is fitted, has been thoroughly tested at sea, and is declared by the authorities to be a complete success, at least 50 per cent. being gained over the old rudder, both in time of turning and in the diameter of the circle• THE ARMY. His Royal Highness the Field-Marshal Corn manding-in- Chief will hold a levee at 1 o'clock on Saturday, the 11th inst. Yesterday Field-Marshal his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, Commander-in-Chief, held the first review this season of the troops composing the garrison of Chatham. Accompanied by Lieut.- Gen. the Hon. Sir James Yorke Scarlett, K C. 13., Adju tant-General to the Forces ; Col. the Hon. R. Char teris, aide-de-camp ; and Colonel Chapman, C. 13., he arrived by early train from London, and was received at the railway station by Major-General H. Eyre, commanding the garrison, the guns at the Corn wallis battery, manned by a detachment of Royal Marines, firing a royal salute. The various corps were under arms at 9 o'clock. Each of the troops, the whole of whom were in heavy marching order, was provided with 15 rounds of blank cartridge. On leaving the railway station his Royal. Highness and Staff rode to the other side of the garrison to St. Mary's casemated barracks, just vacated by the In valid Depot, and now undergoing some important alterations to adapt them for the reception of troops. All the alterations are being carried out from the suggestions made by the Army Sanitary Commis sioners, but it is probable that they will only be used as a kind of makeshift, and before long revert o their former use—that of vast store places for the entire garrison. The Duke of Cambridge spen half an hour at St. Mary's barracks, during which he visited most of the quarters eet apart for the officers. His ros al highness next rode to Brampton barracks, occupied by the Royal Engineers and the infantry of the Line, and spent a short time at that establishment. The troops were formed an the great Lines by 11 a.m., and, notwithstanding that the strength of the garrison of Chatham is smaller than it has been for a number of years, the force under arms was an exceedingly imposing one. The troops included the Royal Engineers, under the command of Colonel H. D. Harness, C. 8., consist ing of the six depot companies as well as the other companies at the head-quarters ; the Chatham division of Royal Marines, commanded by Col. T. Leman, C. 8., and consisting of two battalions under the respective commands of Col. Lowder, Aide-de camp to the Queen, and Col. Foote, and three bat talions of infantry under the command, respectively, of Col. H. Jervis, Col. E. Newdigate, and Col. the Hon. J. J. Bourke, including the Ist and 2d Bat talions of the 4th King's 0 wn, Ist and 2d Battalions of the 12th Regiment, Ist and 2d Battalions of the 19th Regiment, Ist and 2d Battalions of the 20th Regiment, 31st Regiment, 35th Regiment, 43d Light Infantry, 51st King's Own Light Infantry, 52d Light Infantry,7sth Regiment, 81st Regiment, 91st Regiment, 94th Regiment, 101st Royal B.elenegrsl.

But it must be hoped that there has been some exa ggeration on this head, for no detachment with so marry excellent officers as that of Horodinski possessed had appeared in Poland since the beginning of the insurrection. Ultimately Wysocki, after holding a council of war, decided on Wednesday evening to rL.pass the frontier, and he is now, with by far the greater part of his men, in Galicia. Ido not think the entire number of killed and wounded in Wysocki's corps can have amounted to any thing like a hundred, and very few indeed fell into the hands of the Austrians. The arms they left in a place of safety. Wysocki having been too late for Horodinski, and not having waited long enough for Minuiewski, it is thought neverthe!ebs that Minniewski will enter Volhynia to-day, and try for the third time whether a fQw companies of Poles can drive the Russians out of R idziwi)ow. The three detachments to gether, attacking the town in three different planes, could doubtless have taken it yesterday morning ; but now that the Russians are prepared, I see - no reason for supposing that Minnicwski will succeed wheze Horodinski failed, and Wysocki was scarcely able to make a serious attempt. lV li'slomp, ss in officers was very great, and of th ea fd s : e s.d z e..cawho were much exposed, scarcely one escaped being hit. Garczinski and Domogalski, the chiefs of this service, were wounded, the former mortally, the latter very seriously, and in three places. Another staff officer, Captain Gliszainski, after being actively employed throughout the day in placing and keeping the tirailleurs in position, and in filling up the gaps along what appeared to be a very long line, considering the small number of men engaged, fell just at the end of the action, which lasted from 8 until 12, and again from about a quarter-past 12 until 2 . In spite of the report spread a few days ago that Colonel Jordan had been killed while loading the centre of the last detachment which left Western Galicia for the Kingdom of Poland (1,100 strong, in three separate bodies), it appears now, to the great joy of his numerous friends, that he is alive, and not very seriously wounded. About 200 of the entire force are said to have penetrated into the kingdom. The rest were either killed, wounded, and made prisoners, or driven back into Galicia. Among the dead are several young men belonging to the principal families in Poland. Colonel Jordan was chief of Dembinski's staff during the Hungarian war. He is the head of the military division of Cracow and Sandomir, and the last expedition but one which entered the kingdom from Cracow in any force—the one in which Nullo was killed—left under his direction, though not, as many journals have stated, under his personal com mand, Before the whole corps could be got into the presence of the enemy the first companies were prematurely routed, and the general did not make his appearance on the other side of the frontier at line poured in several volleys. Foiled in this attempt the attacking party now appeared desirous of operating on the flank of the army, which im mediately changed front, and the line reformed, advancing cing as before, and reaching nearly the ex tremity of the Lines, by t which, l it was presumed, the enemy had been completely . dr . iven back. The troops afterwards retired ivi f sions, and formed squares to resist the advance cavalry. e xecuting a few other movements with After remarkable s teadiness and rapidity, the ri, al re N w hen asre t re formed, and the entire force adynneed, v gener al salute was given and the colours lowered. The order was then given for commanding officers to proceed to the fron t, when his Ro yal Highness addressed them at some length. Ho expressed his high satisfaction at the manner in which the troops had gone through the various manwavres, and was happy to find that the various corps at the Chatham garrison still maintained their high state of profi ciency. The troops were then marched off to their respective quarters, and his Royal Highness shortly afterwards left the garrison under a salute from the guns of the battery. Major-Gen. Bloomfield , R.A., is at pres ent en gaged in inspecting the artillery stationed in Ports mouth and the south-west district. On Tuesday the General inspected the field batteries at Men, and yesterday the 7th Brigade in the advanced forts at Gosport. THE INSURRECTION IN POLAND, (From the Special Correspondent of the Times.) GALICIAN-VOLITYNIAN FRONTIER, July 2. The combined expedition from Galicia to Vol. hynia, after being organised, disorganised, and re organised on various plans, was declared ready for the frontier last week, and on Sunday the points of rendezvous were made known, and orders issued to assemble the same evening. Three thousand names had been inscribed, and arms for that number of men concealed in the woods near the border, but so many seizures were made by the Austrian soldiers and police that, at the last moment, it was found impossible to arm more than 2,000. Then came the news that Minniewski, who was to command the left wing, and who had more than the usual diffi culties to contend with in getting his force together, would not be ready to cross with the main body ; and, ultimately, when the centre, under General Wysocki, and the right wing, under Colonel Horo dinski, had succeeded in reaching the forests which extend from Galicia far away into Volhynia, it ap peared that between them they could only muster from 1,100 to 1,200 men. With this very small army, in two divisions, it was resolved to attack Radziwilow, the nearest Russian town to the Aus trian frontier town of Brody; and it was hoped that if it were taken Minniewski would be able to enter the place the next day with 500 new troops. To wait for Minniewski was impossible, as there was reason to believe that the Austrians were already on the track of Wysocki and Horodinski ; indeed, the rear guard of the latter had scarcely crossed when the approach of Austrian troops was an nounced, and some of the Polish gentlemen of the neighbourhood who had undertaken to see the de- 1 tachrnent to the frontier would, but for the darkness and storminess of the night, in all probability have been made prisoners. The plan agreed upon was that Wysocki and Horodinski should both make for Radziwilow— the former from the immediate neighbourhood, the latter from a point about six English miles to the south. If Horodinski was attacked first Wysocki was to march to his assistance. Otherwise, it was the intention of Wysocki to remain on the defensive in the woods before Radziwilow until Horodinski announced his approach. This plan for various reasons could not be carried out. Wysocki, pursued by the Austrians, had to take a difficult and circuitous road to the border, er he would have been stopped before he had fairly started, and when he had at last got over his men had marched nearly 30 miles and had eaten nothing for 24 hours. Worse than that, it was 7 in the morning, and there wore no signs of Horodinski, who had promised to advance towards Radziwilow at daybreak, and expected either to arrive there at 3 o'clock, or, in the event of being attacked by superior force, to receive aid from Wysocki within an hour, at the utmost, from the commencement of the battle. However, at about 8 o'clock some 800 Russians had collected outside Radziwilow, and were gradu ally improving their position, when Wysocki, though still ignorant as to the position of Horodinski, found it necessary to attack them. The oppoing forces were nearly equal, but the Russians, it is to be pre , sumed, had had a few hours' sleep, and something to eat the day before, and had not worn themselves out by a march of 30 miles. There was plenty of cover on both sides, the Poles firing for the most part from a forest, while the Russians aimed coolly and quietly enough from a field of rich, ripe corn, which if it could not protect at least sufficed to con ceal them. Between the wood and the wheat there were a few houses and huts, chiefly inhabited by Jews. Here a number of Russian sharpshooters established themselves, and for some time kept up a murderous fire, from which the Poles could only save themselves by burning the miniature village. When the Russians came out they were charged and driven into the corn by a company of sithemen. This was the only instance of anything like hand to-hand fighting throughout the battle. No cavalry were engaged, there were no bayonet charges, 11 °'' was a single volley fired. 'lll6 Russians; i ike o. l l t ie Poles, fought in open order from beginnin„oro. end, and did not once g ive them the oPP tunity which they have so often pro fited by i n o ther engagements of firi n g u p on hunger dens e mass" .

If Wysocki had been able to keep his ap pointment Had ziwilow might, and doubtless would, have fallen int o t h e possession of the Poles. As it was, Horodinski's corps was so fearfully cut up and so completely beaten that Wysocki, when he came up at seven, could see no signs of its having been anywhere the appointed place of meeting. He did not even know the right wing had passed the fron tier until the news was given him by an English gentleman who had gone as an amateur to visit Radziwilow under the impression that it was already in the hands of Wysocki, and who, finding that a battle was going on, and perceiviLg that " some one had blundered," went into the thick of the fire and told the General that he had seen Ho rodinski cross over into Volhynia the night before,. Wysocki thought that if he went on fighting Ho rodinski must soon be near enough to hear the firing ; but Horodinski was dead. He had fallen in a desperate hand-to-hand struggle in the middle of the market-place of Radziwilow at the head of his trcops, urging and calling them on to the very last. It is feared that Major Sykiewicz, who commanded the infantry, shared his fate. My informant saw him fall from his horse just as the Russians were l• Mieleneki, the chief who distinguished himself so greatly in the region of Kalisch, some two months ego, against the troops of Prince Wittgenstein, and who, according to the Russians, was killed, accord ing even to the Poles mortally wounded in his last battle, is expected again in the field. The circum stances under which Mielencki joined the insur gents in the first instances are rather remarkable. In the government of Warsaw, close to his own residence, he was out riding one day, when he found a priest belonging to one of the newly formed de- tachments defending himself against three Cossacks, who had surrounded and were threatening him. Miolencki rode up to the group, wrested the lance from the grasp of the Cossack nearest to him, ran him through, attacked the second, and put the third to flight, Cossack No. 2 following soon afterwards. The insurgents, who had witnessed Mielencki's ex ploit from a distance, now came up, asked Mieleneki 1 who he was, to possess such daring and such dex terity in the use of arms and yet not belong to the insurrection, and ultimately entreated him to take the command of their detachment. Mielencki would not hear of such u thing. He explained that he was married, and had not been married very long, and 'hat it did not enter into his views to desert his family; but no such excuses availed him. The in surrection claimed him for her own. Mielencki had full permission given him to write a letter to his wife apologising for not returning home so Boon as he had originally intended, and then was hurried off to the theatre of war, where one cannot help thinking, from the zest with which he entered into the spirit of the performance, that he wished in his heart to be from the very first moment. According to the Gazetl Nat edowa of Lemberg, there were 13 officers and 140 soldiers killed, and 240 soldiers wounded in the railway accident with a purpose done not long since at Malkinia. Railway travelling is not a very agreeable mode of locomo tion just now on the Polish lines. It is bad enough if the engine-drivers and conductors are in the ser vice (as most of them notoriously are) of the Na tional Government. If they are not in its service the case is rather worse, as the rails are taken up without their knowledge.

A few grammes of its eggs, sent to the Imperial Acclimatation Society, were con fided to some of its members. Other eggs, placed in M. Guerin Meneville's hands by Dr. Blether, were distributed by that gentleman amongst agriculturists, who not belonging to the society, could not profit by the distribution made to its members. It is now possible to form some idea of the results obtainable from the oak silkworm, M. Guerin Meneville having presented to the Academie des Sciences coccoons produced by worms hatched from the eggs that had been confided to him. Those eggs although hatched somewhat prematurely, gave caterpillars which have been successfully reared at divers and distant points of France—at Vincennes for instance, and at Toulon ; and, above all, the caterpillars feed and thrive ou the leaves of the common oaks of the forest, Quercus pedun culata and sessifiora. But besides the Japanese silkworm of the oak, there is another oak silkworm obtained from the north of China. The introduction of this valuable species, which had been vainly attempted for the last ten years, is now in the way of being accomplished . Larva, hatched on the 19th of May last, had already, at the time of writing, reached their second moult or change of skin without manifesting the slightest symptom of disease. Their co our at first was deep black. They afterwards be came bright green, studded with orange and sky-blue tubercles. It their introduction succeed, it will supply, during the cotton dearth, the material for one more branch of industry.—.
