This Company is formed for the purpose of carrying on, as O. joint-stock enterprise, the well known engineering works of Mr. Henry Grissell, situate in the Eagl e W harf-road, Regent's Cana', London. Mr. Grissell's 'works cover a space of 21 acres of land, and possess a frontage of 70D feet on the Eagle Wharf-road, with nearly the same extent of water frontage. Being situated on the Regenes Canal, they are connected with the Thanes and with all the nilways which run into London, and are other wise admirably adapted to the requirements of the business to be conducted therein. They are now in full operation, and the Company will thus at once enter upon an existing and profitable business. It is intended to work, in conjunction with this business, Some valuable patents which the Company have arranged to acquire for improvements in an important class of steam agricultural machinery, for which there is a largely increas ing demand at home and abroad, and for the manufacture of Which these premises are well adapted. The Regent's Canal Iron Works were established by Mr. Grissell in the year 1844, and since that time have been most s uccessfully carried on under his imme• fate supervision. For heavy and expensive castings, and for iron bridges, and the like, his works s t an d unrivalled. He has founded, in connec tion with these works, an extensive continental as well as home connection. Within the last few years many important engineering establishments have been transferred from private hands to form the basis of joint-stock enterprise, and with the most °narked success. Amongst these may be named the works of Mr. John Ashbury, now The Ashbury Iron and Waggon Company of Manchester ; the works of Mr. John Barrow, of Staveley, now Th Staveley Iron and Coal Company (limited); and those of Mrs-John Brown, now known as John Brown and Company, of Sheffield. The shares of all these are at a Very large premium. The terms upon which the Directors have engaged to pur chase Mr. Grissell's works, are founded upon a valuation made by Messrs. Fuller and Horsey, and are most satisfac tory. Mr Grissell has agreed to leave in the business a con derable portion of the purchase money, and for the present to take upon himself the respon-ibilities of Managing Director. The shareholders will incur no liability beyond the amount of shares allotted to them. Applications for shares must De made upon the annexed form. Each applicant will be re quired to pay into the bankers of the Company per share on the number of shares arplied for, and upon allotment to make a further payment of £2 per share on the shares allotted to him. It no allotment be made the deposit will be returned In full. Further calls will be made at intervals of not less than two months, and no call will exceed £2 per share. Prospectuses and forms of application for shares may be had of the Solicitors, and at the Offices of the Financial Cor poration (limited), 13, Leadenhall-street, City, E.C.

Mitre-chambers, 157, Penchurch-street. A. private Company yeas established in 1857, under the name of the Hudiksvall Steam Sawing Mill Company Mind ed), for the purchase of fore-ts in Sweden, and the taking of grants or leases or other title to such forests, with the right of selling the same ; the completion of water com rmunicatiens for floating timber from the forests to Forssa, and thence to Hudiltsvall r erecting steam and water sawing Mills for converting the tireiber into deals, and the. sale of such deals at Hudiksvall, or the consignment cf them tor sale to London or other places. The present Company is formed for the purpose of extend- lug the operations of the above-mentioned Hudiksvall Steam Sawing 311.11 Company, the shareholders in the Hudiksvall Steam Sawing Mill Company being willing to take payinent for the whole of the capital invested by them In paid-up Considerable of the new Company. Considerable and valuable forests in the parish of Lillherr dal in the vicinity of the lierje and Ljushe river; in the pro vince ot Jemptland, also in rdrila, have been secured upon leases for 60 years, renewable every 10 years during the term of 50 years, without fine to the lessors. These forests, cover ing between 300 and 40r English square miles, or 00,000 to 250,000 acres, are, from be general advance in the value of forests, supposed to be of much greater value now than they were t the time of the purchase. About £7, 00 have been expended in making dams, and cleating' the streams in the forests, in order to facilitate the floating of the timber to the liver Ljusne ; and about £31,00 0 i n establishing a water corn atinnication between Swithammer, on the river 4 usne, and the Mill at Forssa, including about 5..5,040 paid as an equi valent for a Share in the existing floating- arrangements in - the liver Ljusne, thereby acquiring the right of 11 acing free of dues for ever. The water communications between Swin glimmer amt e Mill have been most substantially con atructed, under the direction of Commissioners appointed by the Swedish Government, and consist ot ducts and canals— erne of which has been cut through the solid rock the in cludes a hauling bed, worked by a steam engine, forth® plir pose of raisi ethe floating logs to a higher level, about 40 feet, from which paint there is a fall gained of upwards of 340 feet, extending over this line of water communication,with an ample supply of water all the year round. These Work hate cost a large sum of money beyond the original estimate., be cause the Government insisted upon their being constructed upon a much larger scale, in order to make them available tor the public in general, This additional outlay, however, has already begun to bear good fruits, since a profit hes been +cleared during the last year by floating timber for other par ties, which souice of revenue is likely still further to reduce 'the flo a ting expenses . About £22,700 have been expznded on the steam sawing -mill and engines, with workshop com plete, which are of the best English workmanship, in excel lent condition, and capable of sawing about 1,000 logs per day, thus showing the magnituie of the works X 3,60 , have been expended at Forssa, Lillberrdal, t h e a la bourers' dwellings and storehous other places, for Pr e ! y are all bstan tially built, and and freeholo - - . property, as well se e the saw mill, the entire line of war' ..er communication between Swin hammer and N'orssa tli and the shippi ng _ , -e deal yards at Foram, sundry farms, ,oare bought bs7,.avilttal; in the pot of Hudiksvall.

In order to make all the capacities of the works available, `which are, without any further outlay for plant and me thinery, equal to the production of 8,000 standards of deals of shipping quality per annum, it is intended to create 3,200 shares of £5O each, 1,500 of which will be ken by the share holders of the Hudik sva l l Steam Sawing-mtaill Company, who are willing to take payment for the whole amount invested by them in paid-up shares. The remaining 1,700 shares are %ow offered to the public. If the capital of the Company is extended to £200,000, it would be for the purpose of increas ing the operations of the Company, which is not oy any means bnprobaule. The total assets of the old Company on the Ist January of this year amounted to £ 137 960 19s. d. These assets com prise £ 1,500 s till to b e paid in three instalments for the lease of the Lillherdal Forest; and also include about £33,100 for deals sold for early delivery, and about 150,0J0 logs at the mill and floating; there are also sundry other good out. standing debts. In order to secure to the Hudiksvall and Forssa Company the who e p ro fi ts of the eurrent year, it is proposed that all the properties as above, and assets of the Hudiksvall Com pany, should be tak n by the Hudiksvall and Forssa Com pany, for the sum of £138,5uu ; and that all moneys expender; since the Ist January of this year, including interest and commission on the capital employed, be considered as ex- Pended by and for the benefit and at the cost of the Hudiks vall and Forssa Company. last year, The calcu ations based upon the actual experience of the show a profit of 8 per cent. upon the extended a n i l ktl, with fair prost estimate further increase for the future. a - , '4.,c calculation or of the probable profits, allow ce has been made for a reserve fund, which, with inte iherest, will allow the capital of the Company to be paid off at e„,, saes''''s of 43 ars when the leases of ihe forest will expire ue it should ' newleases, be deemed expedient at that Arne to pur- The sale the pri cer , Prices upon which the calculations are based are some of tilactually obtained for the last year's produce, and their o f first brokers in the timber trade have given it as the futur 11 that higher prices are likely to be obtained for and about 1,700 e• The saw ' mills are at this moment in full work, weeks, whittandards of deals have been sawn in the last setts Engli market c u b ' of average quality, will realise in the r‘pwards of £9,100 net.

The Company is formed for the purchase of the extensive i estates of Robertsfors and Fredricksfor , , comprisitig about 1500:0 acres cfireeho.'d and crown lands, with large forests and agrictiltural distriets,as also timber andiron works, ship bui ding yards, Am, and which ate sittiated in the county of West Botten, in Sweden, five English miles Iran the harbour, belonging to the estate ; called Sixes ; * in the Gulf of voilinia; and also to extend the presen manufacture of iron, intro duce Bessemer's steel process, so as to produce on the spot, from the pure Swedish Iron ore and charcoal, a quality of steel adapted for rails, ship-building, locomotive engine tires, axles, shafts, and other Machinery, boiler plates, armour plates for ships, cannons, mortars ; .Btc., and for all other pur poses where it has proved desirable to substitute Bessemer steel for iron. It is also intended to. extend the yearly pro dttcc of timber for export, to build ships, and work the other resources of the estate in such manner as may be forind most boneficial to the interests of the shareholders. The Swedi h bar and pig iron is j ustly celebrated in the vari ous markets of the wprld. At the International Exhibition Of 1862, to leis than fifteen eXhibitots from Sweden received medals for different kinds of thin and iron manufactures, among whieh was part of an iron .hip that had struck on a rock, and which was entireiy bent without breaking or injaring the iron in any way, thus establishing its great superiority for ship plates. It has been repeatedly stated in our public journals— 'The Times," " Mining Jotirnal," and other leading and so entific organs—that we cattnat as yet do without Swedish iron. The present proprietors have but to a small extent deve loped all the resource's at their Command, having derived an average annual income of abottt .0,000 sterling from the profits obtained by employing only a moderate capital. Thus the average y'parrY produce oi Champ il bar hat has been limited to 620 tens, at a edit Price of AZ ss. per ton. Freight hitherto paid from Sikea to England by timber vessels, 105. per ton ; other expenses ' about is.; making a total £1 16s. per ton, deliveredinEngland, where the market price of such iron no* ranges trent 2 WA. to 4113 per ton—thus leaving a nett profit of at least Xi 17s. per tdn. NCI pig iron is at pre sent sold 'from the property, and all the bar Iron has of late years been contracted for by a large firm (who are willing to Contract for More than double the quantify) in France, where it is considered o ne of th e most stiperior qualities of Swedish iron. and used for cutlery and other fine mantifOttires: One of that firm has lately visited Sweden for the piirpose of making a contract for a series of years. The present average produce of timber has also been limited to about 27,000 dozen planks, which have been sold at an average profit of 2s. per dozen—leaving a nett profit of £2.700 sterlin g . It is proposes to erect at a .uot or aouut .cio,oto, furnaces for the production of steel by the Bessemer process, up to 200 tons per week, according to requirements, and as may be found desirable. The cost of steel ingots will not exceed £9 per ton, delivered in England ; and as the present selling price is £l5 per ion, a nett profit is left of £ per ton, which, with a production of 200 t ons per week, would give an annual profit of £62,400, or equal to 416 per cent. on the capital of the first issue, on steel alone, besides what would accrue from the other resources. Dried wood has lately hem used with great success and economy as a substi tute for charcoal. There is no doubt that Bessemer steel will ultimately supersede wrought iron in all such manufactures ; and it is with a view to this that the Company intend to devote con siderable attention to its production in a locality where it cin be made from the very best materials. 1 he returns may fairly be estimated as follows : a. Net annual returns of present proprietors, X 8,9,3, say b. Profit on 200 tons of Bessemer's steel per week at £6 per ton 62,400 471,30) Deduct for expenses of management, &e. 5,300 Net.. • £60,000 or 41 per cent. oh the first issue of capital, £150,000, without calculating oh shy extension of the trade in bar and hoop iron, timber, deals, ship-building, and produce of cast steel for tools, Jtc., for which there is a ready market. It will thus be clea ly seen that the iron and timber works, with the improvements proposed by this Company, and all the other available resources possessed by these estate% will yield a Very large a! d certain profit when English capital and skill are brought to bear upbn thelii, Thete is ample Water power on the t states (the Rieklea rarer , which is made available for saw -mills, various machi• neries for iron manufactures, &c., and also a flour mill. There are on the estates iron fottpth im titillates, forges (iron and brass 1, workshops, stores and Warehouses, dwelling houses for workmen. mechani s, and foremen ; offices, and stabling for forty-five horses, and a large farming stock (in cluding 140 cows). At the ship-building yards there are newly-built hou es for inspectors, shipwrights, and work. men. The produte Of timber may be ,considere 1, Unlimited; con sisting. as it does of a large extent of virgin forests. The vendors have agreed to accept £50,0 0 for the whole of the estates. The stock in trade as well as iron, char C o al, &c,,in store, to be taken at a valuation according. to the books, will amount to about £20,000. As both the mines and iron works are already in active operation, the profits will accrue to the Company from the date of purchase. The *hole of the property, mines, works, &a, have been Carefully surveyed by an eminent engineer, Mr. Franz Hoff man ; and on his report his Majesty the king tit Sweden has granted permission to fortn ajo nt-stock company, and con firmed the valuation of the property at Rgs. D. 1,000,000 Swedish, or £55,550 sterling. NOTE.—The proprietors offer to reserve for themselves the Ith share of the itaggarb iron mines, part of the property proposed to be sold, at a drawback of £5,000 from the pur chase money of the estate, should the Company wish them to do so. The magnetic iron ore, which can be obtained in any quantity from these mines, is of the same quality as that from which the famous Dannemora iron is produced. It has been analysed by the well-known firms of Messrs. Johnson, Matthey, and Co. and Messrs. Griffith and Barton, assayers, a d found to contain 66i per cent, of good pig iron. It is entirely free from sulphur. The capital of the Company has been fixed at £300,000, in 15,0 0 shares of £2O each. It is not proposed to include more than X 150.000 in the first issue, as after paying the purchase money for the property and stock, and the cost of erecting the Bessemer furnaces and paying all preliminary expenses, about .£60,000 will be left as a working capital, to be called. up as it may be required, until the Company shall consider it desirable to further extend their operations, The articles of assoAation, with plans of the estates and samples, may be inspected at the Offices of the Company, where also all the details respecting the properties may be had on application. Prospectuses and forms of application may be obtained of fhe bankers, brokers, and at the Offices of the Company. * This harbour is capable of accommodating the largest vessels—being one of the best in the north of Sweden, close to the open sea, and sheltered from winds, so that ships can load and discharge in all weathers.

STiNFORD f 3, S M ITH fieccetin. GREAT EASTERN. The adjourned Wharncliff meeting of this com pany was held on Friday at the London Tavern ; Mr. S. Goodson in the chair. The CHAIRMAN said he was glad to inform them that it would be the last time this Session that they would be called upon to consider Bills in compli ance with the standing orders of the House of Lords, us their list of Bills would now be completed. There were only two Bills remaining —the Metro. politan Extensions and the Junction Bills. Mr. MAYNARD, the solicitor, read the heads of a bill to authorise the Great Eastern Railway Coma play to make several railways in and near the metropolis in connexion with their existing rail way, and to purchase lands for a station in the city of London. One of the provisions was that the company should make good deficiencies in parish rates during the construction of the railway and another specified that certain streets were not to be stopped up. On the motion of the CHAIRMAN, seconded by Mr. L. SIMPSON, a formal resolution approving the Bill was carried unanimously. Mr MAYNARD then read the heads of a Bill to authorise the Great Eastern Railway Company to make several bhort junction railways for connect ing different railways in their system at other points, and for other purposes. On the motion of the CHAIRMAN, seconded by Mr. SIMPSON, a formal resolution approving the Bill was carried unanimously, and the meeting separated. METROPOLITAN. The adjourned Warncliffe meeting of this com pany was held on Friday at the London Tavern ; Mr. W. A. Wilkinson in the chair. Mr Bluebell, the solicitor, read the heads of a bill to enable the Metropolitan Railway Company to extend their railway from Finsbury-circus to Trinity-square, Tower-hill, and for other purposes. The bill authorised the company to create new capi tal for the construction of the extension line, or to make it by means of a separate capital. The line was to pass through the Finsbury-circus gardens in a covered way. Certain streets were not to be stopped up. Trains were to run in the mornings and evenings of working Jays for the accommoda tion of the labouring classes at reduced fares. The CHAIRMAN said he did net know of any body of shareholders being in so favourable a position as they f w ou er in e m i c r. :t r r e zp spe o c n t . o ib f lA th r e p art r i e e s s e w nt ho bibl.mare a l d u T n h d e e r r e . taken the risk of providing the money for the ex penses of the bill and for the Parliamentary deposit. The shareholders of the Metropolitan Company were free to have nothing whatever to do with pro viding the capital for the extension line, but it they wished they might subscribe any po,-t ion of it. They had the option of taking or leaving the extension shares. The whole matter had been fully discussed at the ordinary meeting of the company ill February last, and the report of the directors fully and fairly explained the objects of the Bill, and that it was to authorise part of the " inner circle" recommended by the Parliamentary Committee of last Session. The traffic on the Metropolitans line was increasing, and would be further increased by the construction of the proposed extension lines. He concluded by moving a formal resolution approving the Bill, which he trusted would be carried unanimously. Mr. AUSTEN, a director, seconded the motion, and explained that the Parliamentary Committees looked with great favour on the proposed " inner circle line," of which the Metropolitan Railway and proposed extensions would form a considerable portion. All that was wanted on the present occa sion was their approval of the Bill, which, if sync tinned, would prevent competing schemes for the,ir present through traffic._ _ Mr. HARTRIDGE said they had better let other parties make the line; there was no estimate of either cost or traffic in respect of the proposed ex tension, and his opinion was that if they were coins polled to make that line it would have the effect of reducing their dividend on the Metropolitan main line by at least one-third. The most expedient thing they could do would be to reject the Bill alto. gather, and he moved an amendment to the effect that it was inexpedient that the line from Finsbury to Tower-hill should be made with the authority and at the risk of the proprietors of the Metropolis tan Railway. Mr. ELEES said he held proxies to the amount of £200,000, and he strongly objected to any extension lines being made at their cost, and would second amendment for defeating the Bill. Mr. PARSON, deputy chairman, explained that it was most expedient that the extension line should be made by the authority of the company, and by the assistance of their friends. He thought that the deposit of £96,000 in respect of one extension Bill and £48,000 in respect of the other Bill was a proof of the responsibility of the parties interested. It had been said that they did not know who they were, but he thought all doubt would be removed when he mentioned that they were Messrs. Brassey, Peto, Betts, Kelk, Waring, and others. The only penalty in the Bill for the non-completion of the railway was the forfeiture of the deposit, and if the line were not made the loss would fall on those gentlemen. It was a speculation of those parties , and when carried out must improv e t he p ro perty of the Metropolitan Company. The shareholders of the Metropolitan were bound in good faith to pass the Bill, which was promoted at the cost and risk of the gentlemen he had mentioned. Parliament h a d r ,,:ected a Bill—tbe East London Bill—that was opposc'd to them on the faith of this Bill being carried out. They should remember that a similar breach of faith on the part of the South-Eastern shareholders at a Wharncliffe meeting had caused Parliament to revive and sanction the E Ist Kent Bill for a railway which now termed part of the London, Chatham, and Dover. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Jones and other proprietors were in favour of the Bill, while others expressed an opposite opinion. On the amendment being put it was negatived by a show of hands, and the Bill was approved by 30 agN inst 5. A i r . HARTRIDGE said he was extremely anxious etors should take the case before the the prop.' House of LorL!s• On taking the Poll the only vote recorded against the Bill was that of 11t. Hertridge, and in order to save further trouble he withdrew it. The CHAIRMAN declared the Bill unanimously iapproved, and the proceedings conoluded with a vote of thanks to the chairman. President Lincoln may lay aside his file of Standards and breathe afresh. Major. General Dix, Commander of the Eastern Division in the city of New York, may recover his wonted composure. Ambassadors Dayton and Adams may smooth their knitted brows, and the placemen of Washington may rejoice as though a veritable victory had crowned the Federal arms. " Manhattan" is dead ! The well known and long familiar nom de plume will no more greet the eye of the reader as he takes up the broad sheet of the Standard. Fort Lafa yette has not closed its hideous gates on the daring writer, nor has Richmond received an unexpected exile. The controversy which so suddenly rose betiveen our intrepid correspondent and the North ern Government has been cut short by the hand of death. Arrest and parole are at an end, and "Man hattan" has stepped on to the arena of another world, beyond the reach of President or provost. It may be feared that his recent difficulties with the Federal Government have tended to hasten the demise of our valued correspondent. His health had been failing for some weeks; but he was scarcely past he prime of life, being only in his 50th year, and at the time of his interview with Major General Dix exhibited no such symptoms as would have obviously indicated a fatal issue. But death has come, and the stroke was sudden. Four. teen days after the above.mentioned interview " Manhattan" expired, with little previous warning, breathing his last in his own dwelling. What might have been the result of his collision with the Govern. meat had be been spared to live it is vain to specu late. But his departure from the scene is a loss to the cause of political truth and honesty. His fear less pen was a scourge to the horde of peculating politicians who are the curse of the Republic; and the citizens of the North might well turn to his letters as published in our columns in order to see a picture of their affairs more faithful to the fact than any exhibited nearer home. No writer held up the mirror to the face of society with less of tremor and compromise than " Manhattan." An out-spoken expression of his own convictions was characteristic of the man. He might be rough, but he was faithful, and was worth a host of more cautious scribes who found it easy to avoid his faults by renouncing his merits. The English reader, while perusing the rapid and crowded sketches of our lively correspondent, might often differ from the writer, but never failed to receive a vivid impression of the actual scenes portrayed by that graphic pen. The style was eccentric, but it was eminently a readable style, and " Manhattan" was unquestion ably a correspondent of " the people." He wrote in the vernacular, and the freedom which might expose him to the criticism of the pedant gave him more ready access to the minds of the masses. " Manhattan" was no foe to the institutions of his country. For better or for worse he ac cepted them. But while he stuck to the ship, and hoisted the flag of the Union, he had a quarrel with the captain and officers. He discerned the breakers that foamed ahead, and his hope lay in awakening "all hands" to a sense of the common danger. He was without faith in the Federal Government, and had less fear of the Southern forces than of Northern corruption. In his last short letter he wrote—" I only hope that when General Lee reaches Washington he will issue such a proclamation as will enable us to come back under the original state rights doctrine." It is less a matter for wonder than regret to find a writer like " Manhattan" becoming the object of much mis representation and even personal attack. His open and reiterated denunciations of all that was corrupt in the Seward-Lincoln Administration made him a ready mark for the official sycophants of the press. The .New ork Tribune of the 17th of last month quarrelled with him for not believing in the victories of General Grant, and poured the most concentrated essence of abuse in thorough Yaokeo style on his devoted head. Subscqu:,nt revelations, however, and more perfect information, have shewn that our correspondent was perfectly justified in his scepticism, and that his " monstrous falsehoods were more correct than the official tele grams. It is curious to observe how by common consent a sort of pre.eminence has been given to Manhattan as an agent of mischief against the Federal cause. In the midst of all the scurrility and maltreatment to which he was subjected Maii hattan received the compliment of being placed first and foremost among his class. In the journal to which we have referred the editor writes vindic tively of Mr. Charles Mackay and "other alien correspondents of foreign journals," whom he accuses of abusing the " national hospitality by the coinage and utterance of monstrous falsehood in the interests of secession and slavery." This would seem strong language, particularly when the aforesaid correspondents are ticketed as " rebel liars in our city! , But when the writer comes to Manhattan he utterly boils over with excess of wrath, and the we seem to come hissing hot from the tip of his pen. Contrasting the ordinary run of literary de. linquents with our unfortunate correspondent in partichlar, the editor goes on to say—" Not one of them, so far as wehave observed, can at all approach the native —, who serves the Evil One and Jeff. Davis by writing regularly to the Standard over the signature of Manhattan." We beg to be excused repeating the epithet which this amiable journalist has thought fit to apply to a political opponent. We would not echo such a word over the grave of one who, in private life, was among the most generous of men, and to whose kindness and largeness of heart many are ready to own themselves indebted. " Manhattan" wrote under date 17th May, "The disgraceful wholesale lying about the war and victories still continues. Nothing like it has ever been heard before since the world began. Many be2ieve we have really achieved a great victory. There is one man that does not believe it, and that one is Lient.-General Grant." It is against this and similar statements that the Tribune enters its virulent protest. Thus—" If any one happens to owe Old Nick ten thousand liars, we advise him to turn out Manhattan' to his creditor, pay his debt, and get a credit for the ' balance in his favour." This is elegant; but time has served to show that the eloquence is mini). plied, and that some other name should stand in the place of our too faithful correspondent. There is something significant in the argument of the Tribune. It amounts to this—that it is consistent to talk of "sending out of the country" the "alien correspondents of foreign journals," so long as a "native" writer is allowed not only to ' equal but to transcend them in his daring criti cisms on the doings of the Federal Government. "Manhattan" was a professed Unionist; but that made his opposition all the more terrible. Are we to infer that " Manhattan" was to be engaged in order that the " aliens" might afterwards be summarily dealt with ? Our correspondent had already bee n . brought face to face with General Dix when th i s truculent article appeared. The Tribune given dently desired that no quarter should to the obnoxious scribe.

Le Comte,—The Conference cf London has separated without having restored peace. The neu tral Cabinets have not succeeded in bringing the allied Powers to a more just appreciation of their duties towards the political system of Europe. We have stretched to their furthest limits the conditions indispensable to the existence of an independent at autonomous Danish S tqte. Bat nothing has been able to satisfy the ambitious views of the German Powers. " The line of conduct we have pursued at ttio Conference has been stamped from first to last with tEe most sincere desire of arriving at an ?greemt7.3t, even were it only to be obtained by the sacrifice of incontestable rights. "When the Conference thought a suspension of arms essential to the success of the negotiations, we which hies they O the enemy. were inter preted submitted to a truce, concluded at th e mos t un favourable time, and upon conditions whi c h, ver y onerous in themselves, became intolerable on a ccou nt a the byhe military t arbitrary manner t i a nwic h In the negotiation we found the allied Powers autho.. ritatively decline all discussion upon the engage., ments entered into by both parties of 1851 a n d 1852, and yet the allies had alleged these same engagements to Europe as the cause and sole object of the war. We found the Treaty of Lon don. and the principle of the integrity of the Danish monarchy, which all Europe had recog nised as an indispensable element of the European system, rejected by the Allied Powers, although they had formally bound themselves towards the other Powers to respect that treaty and the principle which it laid down. Finally, abandoning all re serve and not content with depriving us of Holstein and Lauenburg, they further claimed the duchy of Schleswig, which they pretend to confiscate for the profit of Germany by virtue of the right of the strongest, and were at most willing to leave us a small portion of this ancient province of the Danish Crown. "It has been a painful task to the Government of the King to resign itself to follow step by step these constantly-increasing demands. For, confi ding in the justice of our cause and in the autho rity of public law, it had committed itself to a most unequal contest, in the hope of finding that support in thecouscils of Europe which our arms alone were unable to give us. And it has been painful to the Kiag personally, who accepted the Crown upon the faith of the Treaty of London, and has now found himself condemned to discuss the partition of the country which believed it had found the certain guarantee of its integrity in him and in his dynasty. "Yet painful as were these sacrifices, they have been supported. 'lf the Powers of Europe really desire to abandon the Treaty of Load on'—such was the language help by the Plenipotentiaries of the King---' His Majesty, to avoid the recommencement of hostilities, wi.l not oppose a cession of territory, provided he obtains thereby not only peace, but also an independent and perfectly autonomous exis tence for what remains to him of his States.' In this supposition they pointed out the line of Eckern forde to Frederickstadt as the frontier. In accord ance, however, with a proposition adopted by the neutral Cabinet, the Danish Government deter mined upon withdrawing the line to the Schlei— the point proposed by England—so as to unite by this acceptance the imposing unanimity of the four neutral Powers with Denmark. The cession of territory to which we thus consented in the interest of peace was considerable. It mulcted the mon archy of upwards of a fourth of its extent. and deprived Denmark of military and maritime advan• tages of the greatest value, to augment in the same degree the means of action and conquest of Germany. We could not go further in the way of concessions without sacrificing the very existence of Denmark. " But all the €ffirts made by the neural Cainets and all the sacrifices offered by us have remained futile before the obstinacy of the allies. Upon leav ing the Conference we took up our former stand. upon the treaty of London, and once more we find ourselves engaged in a war in which we are strug gling for existence, invoking in our favour the action of Europe and the general principle of public law. Upon their side the allied Powers proclaim the right of the strongest, and, in despite of the reprobation of the rest of Europe, desire to annihilate a State whose only wrong consists in unwillingness to sub mit to their domination. "This is the lamentable result in which the at tempt at a Conference has issued ; but, while stating it, I have, at the same time, a far more agreeable duty to fulfil. "During the course of the negotiations, each time the Government of the King has made a fresh step upon the way of concession, the neutral Powers and in especial the English Cabinet, while calling upon us to take this step, have justly appreciated the greatness of the sacrifice which we made of an .ncontestable right. " The proposal of an armistice put forward by Lord Russell involved the maintenance of the mari- time advantages which we had conquered, in lcom pensation for those which the allies preserved on land. The English Minister for Foreign Affairs has always recognised the fail justice of our demand that the engagements of 1851-2 should be taken as the basis of the deliberations. Earl Russell did not for get that the Treaty of London was specially due to the initiative of England, and demonstrated with with the full force of irrefutable logic that Prussia and Austria had contracted obligations towards their co-signitaries in taking part in that act. When, lastly, the English Cabinet entered into the discussion upon the abandonment of the Treaty of London, Earl Russell declared that it was not within the competence of the Neutral Towers to renounce the solemn treaty by which they had recognised the integrity of the Danish Monarchy, without at least establishing the basis of a solid and lasting peace, and with this view he acknowledged that 'the new , fron tier line ought not to be drawn further northward than the mouth of the Schlei and the line of the Dannewerke." Further, when the plenipotentiaries of the King pointed out that we could not consent to a prolongation of the susp ens i on o f arms w i t h o ut the assurance that the E ng li s h propos i t i on s hould form the basis of ulterior deliberations, Earl Russell declared that the Government would not itself 'n uke to draw a any proposition, nor would it adhere to any propo• e followed the sition made by another w P e o r e a r nd te i n n d Powers, that Cabinet took the ini4 einsgpecial that of more northern li E ne ar o l f ß d u e s m se aation, assured in advance of the consent of faith of this engage.
