This Company has been formed for the purpose of purchas ing and extending the well known and valuable business, hitherto carried on by private capitalists, under the firm of " The Millwall Ironworks and Shipbuilding Company." 2. The capabilities of the Millwall establishment for the pro duction of every class of iron work are unsurpassed. The engineers' shops are furnished with the most complete mo dern machinery adapted for the construction of marine en gines of high power ; the two foundries, the rolling mills, the smiths' ships, and forges, with eight steam hammers—of sufficient power to execute forc,rings of the heaviest class — are in perteet working condition, including all the latest im provements. 3. These mills mil forges alone are, from their capacity and efficiency, of great value; and when take' in conjunction with the ship building, yard, present a combination for pr) - fitable results not existing elsewhere. The rolling mills, which are for the manufacture of plates and angle iron for ship's purposes, and armour plates, are the most powerful in the kingdom, and now stand unsurpassed for the high character of their manufacture, and can produce 1,000 tons per week, including at least 7. 0 tons of finished iron. 4. Upon the sh•p-buildin'4 yard, which possesses a frontage to the River Thames of 1.710 feet, there s capacity for laying down 55,000 tons of shipping. It comprises a new and care fully-pile doe; (in which tne armour-clad frigate Northum berland, 6,620 tons, is now being c nstructed for her Majesty's Government), with all necissary appliances for shiobuilding. 5. In addition to Ships being constructed for the British Government, the Italian Government, the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company. the Intercolonial Itoy 1 Mail S cam Packet Company, the Ottoman Government, and private merchants, twelve screw steamships with their engines are under con tract. 6. The Company has also purchased the Britannia Graving or' Dry Deck, now in efficient working and the adjoining land., c a lled Fereusson's Mast-pond , containing space for two dry docks of 170 and 350 feet respectively. 7. The operations of the Comp an y will be condu-ted by T•lr. George Harrison, whose great experience and abilities will be devoted exclusively to the interests of this company, and and as the whole of the valuable property has been ceued to the Company upon terms which are considered highly ad vantageous, the result of the undert (king may be considered as assured. 8. In the event of no allotment of shares being made, the de posit will be returned in full. Should a less number of shares be a'lotted than are applied for, the deposit will be made avai able towards the payment on allotment, old the balance if any. returned to the applicant.

China is the only large - untry in the &vilified world which has no direct bank in London operating solely for its benefit ; and it is obvious that a vast fertile region, inhabited by 300 millions of intelligent people, wha carry on an enormous in ternal trade by means of native joint-stock and private banks of issues, and who have an extensive and increasing com mercial intercourse with Europe, India, America, and Australia, must present a lucrative field for monetary ope rations. Great Britain imports from China and Japan (viA, China) upwards of 7,000,0001 b. of silk and about 120,00),00J1b. of tea. Inc rapid increase of trade is thus shown : Imports Exports to Total trade be- Years. of Chia China of British twean Chia a and Produce. Manufactures.

The port of Shan , hai alo le exhibits an extraordinary de velopment. In 1812 it had no European trade; in 1852 the va ue of its exports was £14,667,166, its imports £22,863,953 — total, £37,531,419. The balance of Trade with China Is paid in bullion —chiefly silver—of which the export value was, in 185 t, £102,316; in 1862, £3 4t 8 397. Cotton is now becoming a large item of trade; during the last six moat s of 1863 mere than 20,000,0001 b. were exported. The Imperial Bank of China has therefore been formed to supply nn acknowledged want on the plan which has been so successfully carried out in London by the banks for India and other similar institutions, the success of which the following table will exemplify, and it is believed at least equal success will mark the progress of this bank:— Paid up Present per Price per Share.

ARRIVAL OF GARIBALDI IN LONDON, A portion of the fo' lowing . appeared in our late edition last night : - - - • The public entry of General Garibaldi took place yester day am'dst the greatest excitement. The arrangements have been so repeatedly published, and must have become so generally known, that repetition is quite unneeded. Although it was known the General would not arrive from Southampton until late in the afternoon, immense numbers of persons, as early as eleven o'clock in the morning, began to station themselves at various paints from which com manding views of the procession might be had: The route along which the cortege was to pass presented a scene of the greatest excitement. Immense processions, headed by powerful bands, were continually passing, and the nearer the station of the South Western Railway at 'Vaux - hall was approached, the greater became the excitement. In the Westminster-road immense quantities of flags and banners floated from the houses on either side of the way, and, in many instances, large banners stretched entirely across the roadway. In every convenient place ranges of seats had been erected, and all were filled to over flowing, the attendance of the ladies being exceedingly immense, and we must say they vied with the "lords of the creation," in their desire to give vent to their enthusiasm. The most favourite article of dress was the red Garibaldian shirt; but, without exception, every lady wore in some way or other the national colours of Italy. At half-past 12 those holding tickets were admitted to the goods shed at Nine Elms, which had been gaily decked with flags of all nations, the tricolour of Italy of course being most conspicuous. Many of the banners bore in scriptions, amongst which were the following :—" The Man of Peace," "The Hero of Italy," "The Pure Patriot," and " Welcome Garibaldi ;" in addition to which a portrait of the General was placed in the centre, surrounded with flags. A space had been railed of in the middle of the "shed," upon which was laid a very beautiful carpet, where the various addresses were to bo presented, and on either side of this the members of the different committees ranged themselves. Nearly the whole of them wore some deco rative badge, but the most , striking was a broad ribbon of red, white, and green, which was worn across the shoulder and tied under the left arm. Altogether, the scene was a most animated and imposing one. Amongst those present were the Duke of Sutherland, the Marquis Townehend, Hon. Arthur Rinnaird, Hon Ashley Ponsonby, Mr Gosehen, M.P., Col Sykes, M.P., Mr Ayrtou, M.P., Mr W. Ewart, M.P., Mr Crawford, M,P., Sir John Shelley, M.P., Mr Onslow, M.P., Mr Dunlop, M.l'., Mr P. Taylor, M.P., Mr Harvey Lewis, MX., Mr Doulton, M.P., the Rev Newman Hall, Mr John Richard son, &c. At 20 minutes to three the train containing General Garibaldi and his friends arrived at the platform, and on alighting the General WAR received with a volley of the most deafening cheers. With little or no ceremony he at once proceeded towards the enclosed space in the goods shed, but it was with the greatest difficulty the gallant General made his passage thereto, owing to crowding and crushing of the immense body of friends by whom ho was surrounded. Immediately the General entered the place appointed for the delivery of the address, all previous ar rangements seemed to melt away, and in the excitement of the moment everybody seemed to do precisely as he liked. Some cheered, others waived their hats; others, again, sent forth cries of " Welcome, Welcome," but the whole presented one of the most exciting scenes it is possible for the imagination to conceive. His rest in the Isle of Wight has made a considerable improvement in the bronzed, hardy vigour of his aspect, as compared with the tired and travel-worn look he wore when he landed at Southampton. His lameness, however, seemed as permanent as when he limped from the Ripon, and with out the aid of his stick it was evident that walking would be a slow and most laborious effort. As he advanced up the platform to where he was to receive the addresses ladies sometimes offered their hands to him over the barriers, and for the General and his friends were reached, and when they emerged into the yard fronting the station they were met with one general and deafening shout of admiration from the thousands who had been possessed with tickets admitting them to the Company's premises. The carriage containing General Garibaldi then pro ceeded to the gate of the station in the Wandsworth-road, and there the working men of London, the Italian dents, the Odd. Fellows, the Foresters, the Temperance Societies, the Volunteer Fire Brigades, &c., filed before it. Some notion of the extent of the procession, and the time it took to pass the General's carriage, may be imagined, when the first body began to move in the Wandsworth then his ordinarily sad expression of countenance at once changed, as with the most winning courtesy he turned to press their hands, and always had for each fair partisan a word or two of English to thank them for the hoaour they did him. A little child was put forwardto present him with a bouquet, but he scarcely looked at the lowers, as with the most perfectly natural and fatherly manner he took the child in his arms, kissed it, ratted its curls, and tried as well as he was able to speak to it in English. Little as this incident was, it was so unexpected, and, above all, so per- rcsi,l_ road, the latter portion of it was at Wandsworth common. As each of the societies passed the General's carriage they stopped, took off their hats, and cheered him ; and this process, which always lasted some few minutes, gave ample opportunities to the crowd to fill up the gaps thus made in the ranks of the procession. Thus, at last, the " proces- sion" began to wear very much the aspect of the whole body of spectators who had come out to welcome him, and with the same privileges of moving on or stopping as they might best please. It was not difficult, under these circum- . _ . fectly simple and natural, that it did more than elicit ap. plauae—it seemed to establish familiar and domestic rela. tions between Garibaldi and all the ladies present. stances, to foresee that the three-mile route before the General was likely to be a slow one. At the corner of Miles-street, owing to the main drainage work in the upper The gallant General wore hie usual light cloth cloak - - _ part of the Wandsworth-road, the procession had to take a bye-route, but one of the grey horses in the first carriage reared, cracked the pole, fell junder the off horse, which of course began plunging. The damage was scarcely repaired when • a band struck up behind, and the same brute, again rearing, repeated the performance, to the imminent danger, as well of the dense crowd as of those in the carriage. But luckily, although the pole was smashed and the vehicle disabled, no worse re sult ensued. _ But now came a hitch somewhere. The first part of the procession having moved off became lost to sight, and was never again in view; the second part was for the same time delayed, and meanwhile the crowds—aid crowds is hardly the words for such a dense mass, made up of roughs and re spectable folks—had filled the path, which the very strong police force on the ground was utterly insufficient to keep. It ;was four o'clock before the general's carriage had moved, and then came the difficulty. Miles-street was packed, Bond-street was comparatively clear, though the pole of the first carriage had still to wedge a way through the people; but when the railway bridge crossing Upper Kennington-lane was reached it became ap parent what was the real nature of the reception awaiting Garibaldi. One would have said that in Kenning ton-lane was collected the whole of the population of South London, so closely were the people crowded together. But Kennington-lane was nothing compared to the Kenning ton-road. Where did the people come from? That was very decidedly the question in everybody's mouth. If all South London was in ennington-lane the whole metro polis must have been in Kennington-road. But still the further the eya stretched and the more the polo of the first carriage clove its way through the mass of people, the denser the crowds appeared to become. Whenever the carriage containing the general was seen the shouts grew uproarious, the ladies waved their handkerchiefs, and the children in arms—the inevitable children in arms I— screamad as lustily as anybody else, but moved by less personal gratification. It was not so much a reception of a stranger hero as the welcoming of an old friend. But what was this to what was to come? The people were, in comparison, few and scattered before the procession--and in speaking of the procession wo speak only of irs hinder and more important part, for the head of it was far beyond our km—arrived in the Westminster-road. Where the St. George's-road runs into the Westminster-road the people were so thick that it was a matter attended with imminent danger to life and limb to attempt a passage through them. But the passage had to be made, and here Superintendent Walker and one or two other mounted chiefs of the police did good service. They had disposed their men at the points where the cross roads were most likely to bring great additional crowds, and consequently more un cnitrollable pressure. And here their forethought was re warded. The policemen did their very best, and it was a considerable help, but all the policemen at the disposal of Scotland-yard would have done no good but for that oft referred-to-pole of the first carriage wedging itself into and cleaving asunder the dense mass. So at length the railway bridge crossing the Westminster-road was reached, and then there was a lengthened halt ; why nobody exactly knew. At length there was a short move, and then it appeared likely that instead of going faster still reduced speed was probable. For rounding the turn in the road Westminster Bridge came in view, and the incline leading up to the bridge was simply packed. Where the passage was to be found was the problem that presented itself at once to the mounted officers of police and the people in the fore most carriages. But by dint of great effort a way was found somehow, and then came the bridge. The rate of the procession's speed may be guessed from the fact that the first vehicles were five and-twenty minutes in crossing the river, and then came a few minutes of relief ; for though the crowds were nearly if not quite as thick as ever they had the " A re serve" to deal with, and they had in that body met their match. A very tolerable lane was kept from the Clock Tower to half-way up Parliament-street, and all was there fore plain, if somewhat slow, sailing. It was close upon seven o'clock when the procession turned the corner into Parliament-street, at which point the mounted police-offi cers received an addition to their numbers, enabling them to do their work more effectually. And it was not before it was needed that there came this extra force, headed by Sir R. Mayne in plain clothes. For near the Irish Office, and &benching into Whitehall, the procession came in contact with the thickest crowd yet :encountered. In fact, it was so thick that in such a narrow thoroughfare loss of life appeared inevitable if the procession moved. Whitehall was fairly gained without other accident than a few slight bruises ; and in the more open space, though the crowds were still immense, there was more room for the mass of people to retire as the carriages advanced. Just as the procession came oppposito the Horse Guards a company of the guards was being marched out to relieve sentries, and a cry was raised that they were going to present arms. But as unconcerned looking as if there was no crowd around and in front of them the Guards moved off to their duty, and by the time the head of the procession came up to the Admiralty, where the officials had gathered in great force with their friends on the boundary wall, the Guards were out of sight. Charing-cross was in itself a scene to afford material for columns of detailed description, but a few words must serve to say what it was like. From the fountains then, right down to the Ship Hotel, the area was crammed; the base of Nelson's Pillar served as a good stand for a few adventur lined with scarlet, the world •renowed shirt of the same colour, drab trousers, and a black felt hat. In addition to this costume the General had a silk bandana carelessly tied across his shoulders, the colours being a kind of lavender or mauve, with white intermixed. After a great deal of struggling, sufficient space was cleared in front of where the General stood, when Mr. Richardson came forward and read the following address : The inhabitants of the British metropolis rejoice to wel come you among them—rejoice in the opportunity thus afforded them of testifying their enthusiastic admiration for the first of living patriots, the undaunted and disin terested champion of not only the freedom and independence of his own beloved and classic land, but of civil and reli gious freedom throughout the world. Free England wel comes with affectionate and heartfelt respect the great apostle of liberty—the heroic and chivalrous soldier, whose sword is never (hewn but in a just cause—the conqueror of a kingdom , that he might deliver its people from oppres sion : poor himself whilst making others rich ; the self-devoted , self-denying citizen, loving the rights and welfare of his own country and of the whole human race better than his own life ;. the truly, good. pure-hearted and upright man, whose private worth is only surpassed by his public virtues and more than Spartan and Roman magnanimity. thank you, General, for thus honouring us by becoming for a time our guest, and we sincerely and profoundly trust and pray that the same merciful and Almighty Power which has hitherto, and in a marvellous manner, preserved, amidst the greatest perils and dangers, a life so precious to . Christendom and mankind, will cora. plete your restoration top . erfect health and strength, and enable you yet to accomplish all that your heart desires for the future, making that future even moer glorious than the past, more fruitful in great and good works, more beneficial to Italy and all other oppressed nationalities. The reading of the address again renewed the excite ment, and for some minutes the cheering was extraordinary, but immediately the General attempted to acknowledge the compliment the cheering, if it were possible, seemed to in crease in intensity. At length silence was obtained, and General GARIBALDI replied in the English language. He said—l am very happy to be enabled to-day to give my thanks to thisnoble nation for its generous sympathyfor tb.e cause of my country and for the cause of mankind. (Im mense applause.) Long ago I wished for this day, and I am very h a ppy to-day to express to all my gratitude. (Loud cheering.) The fol classes was then lowing address of the working presented : illustrious Chief I—ln the name of Britain's sons and daughters of toil we bid you welcome to this metropolis. We hail you as the representative of a regenerated and united Italy, and for the love we bear to that beautiful land, and its noble people, so long oppressed; but now, ous spirits, who were, however, distanced in daring by the ' dozens who, clambering up the pediment of the statue of Charles 1., perched themselves about the horse, one man going so far as to get on the stone steed's back behind the figure of the Martyr king. Right over to Northumberland House tie people stood in compact mass, and towards the bottom of the Haymarket, all along Cockspur-street, the packing was made denser and more dense as the police forced a passage for the carriages. Turning into Pall-mall there was the thickest crowd of all, but every one engaged in the procession summoned heart of grace as the end of the journey drew near. The windows of the Reform and the Carlton clubs were filled with ladies, who, " for this occasion only," were permitted to invade the sacred and mysterious precincts of the haunts of their relatives. The War Office had its whole staff about its windows and the queer semicircle in which the sentries pace in front of it. The other palaces in the Rue dos Clubs ware all full of sightseers. The general arrived at Staff )rd House at 20 minutes to S o'clock, having been five hours and 20 minutes since he left the railway carriage at NiLe Elms undergoing the agonies of a popular ovation. The enthusiasm here was as marked as elsewhere, and as Garibaldi descended from his carriage, and was received at the door by his host and hostess, the cheers broke forth again and again, and the people would no doubt have lingered till midnight but that it became generally understood that the hero of the day was utterly tired and would not on any account show himself before morning to the populace. So th e y qu i et l y di s pe r sed ; an d if Garibaldi was at once as much gratified and as much tired as those who accompanied bim in the procession he had earned sweet sleep and pleasant dreams in the princely man sion which shelters him.

In another cas e a gro o m was in the`act of mounting a spirited horse in Kennington-lane, when the animal reared at the sight of some of the passing banners and threw his rider, who also had his skull fractured. To-day the general will go with the Duke :tnd Duchess of Sutherland and a select committee to lunch with the Duchess (Dowager) of Sutherland at Chiswiok. There will be no grand fete, as stated by a Sunday contemporary. it is stated that the general will stay ar Stoinrd lit use a wet-k. or ten days. It is understood that the presentati n of the freedom of the City of London to the general will take place on Wed. nesday week, the 20th inst., in tho event of the Lord Mayor and the rest of the civic authorities being able to make the requisite arrangements for that day. Colonel Peard, " Garibaldi's Englishman,":was ex pected in London yesterday, from Penquite, his seat on the banks of Fewey. lie hopes to be able to induce the general to visit Cornwall.

" Read a letter from Charles Seely, Esq,, M.P., ile4 siring to be informed the cost of the passage of General Garibaldi and suite from Caprera to Malta and Southamp ton. Resolved—That Mr. -Seely be informed that the directors- do not intend to make any charge for the same, and request General Garibaldi to accept the service which they have been able to render in facilitating his visit to England." "EXTRACT FROM MZ. SEELY'S LETTER. " Captain Browne, the son-in-law of Mr. Seely, who made arrangements for the reception of General Gari baldi and his suite at Malta, has been waited on by several of the Maltese merchants, with a request that they might be allowed to be at the cost of enter taining Garibaldi and his suite during his stay at Malta. Captain Browne had to refuse, as that would not have been in acordance with Mr. Seely's instructions to Capt. Browne —Mr. Seely considering Gen. Garibaldi and his suite as his guests as soon as they left Caprera." _ _ This conduct of the Maltese merchants shows the esti mation in which the respectable classes in Malta hold Garibaldi. YORK.—Late on Friday night the following telegram from Brooke, Isle of Wight, was received at York :—" In form the Lord Mayor the General says he will visit York. He remembers going to see the Minster with Mr. Cowan." GENERAL GARIBALDI'S VISIT TO THE OrERA.— According to the official announcement General Garibaldi will visit the Royal Italian Opera, Covent-garden, on Thursday evening next. The opera selected for the oc casion is "Norma," and in addition the second and third acts of " Masaniello ;" the latter, of course, in compliment to the illustrious visitor. The entrance and reception are to be by the Floral Hall, and the box to be occupied by the general is near the stage on the left hand. There will be a most brilliant aseemblage of the aristocracy, and the occa sion cannot fail to be most flattering and gratifying to the Italian patriot. CONSERVATIVE LAND SOCIETY. MEETING THIS DAY. The forty-sixth quarterly meeting took place this clay at the offices, Norfolk-street, Strand. The SECRETARY (Mr, Gruneisen) having read the ad vertisement convening the meeting, The NOBLE CHAIRMAN (Viscount Ranelagh) read the following report : The executive committee, in submitting this their forty sixth quarterly report, have the satisfaction of placing before the shareholders the following gratifying returns of the results for the two first quarters of the twelfth financial year : Qrs. undin., i Shares in „ Shares i yotal veccipts. — proprogress.(,omplete.l I Shares. t , I $:, s. d.

The returns of the register of the order of rights are as follow : Completed. Drawn. Seniority. Total. 5,241 3,234 1,706 10,184 Deduct rights exercised on estates, &c, .... 7,681 Unexercised rights 2,503 The last share number on the register by seniority is No; 14,813; and the last share issued up to Lady Day, 1804, was No. 20,148. The total sale of land to Lady Day, 1861, amounts to £336,118 3 1 The total withdrawals since the formation of the Society to Lady-day, are 218,659 17 8 The allotments for the half-year have been as yet chiefly confined to estates purchased at former periods ; for in stance, the agreement entered into with the Tottenham and Kentish-town Railway Company necessitated the issue of a new plan. The Ipswich estate has been presented in a novel and advantageous manner in a fresh mapping of the land. The disposal of the mansion on the Wanstead estate afforded the opportunity of submitting additional building land for sale. On the 16th of March, the Committee were enabled to allot the second and final portion of the Colches ter estate, reserving a plot thereon for the erection of a church. Advantage was taken of the same allotment to offer an eligible building property at Bis . hop Stortford. The sale of the important property recently acquired in Batter sea, situated in Plough-lane, will be commenced on the 6th of April, the result of which will be announced in the next quarterly report. The committee, however, congra tulate the holders of rights of choice on the opportunity afforded to them of priority of selection on such a valuable estate. The York-road property, which was the first Bat tersea allotment, proved a moat successful investment—not only were highly remunerative ground rents obtained, but considerable premiums have been paid to the original allottees by purchasers. The Plough-lane estate, now offered, has all the advantages of close railroad and steam boat communication, and its proximity to the Battersea park must render it a most eligible locality for building purposes. _ . - . Many of the new railroad schemes before Parliament will materially improve the society's suburban and provincial estates, such as those at Kentish Town, Wood Green, Seven Sisters, Tottenham, Roehampton, Enfield, Brighton, Tunbridge Wells, &c. The executive committee have been careful of the society's interests in those properties through which new railways will pass. The intended erection of a chapel on the Oatlands Grange estate at Weybridge has given an impetus to building, a large quantity of land having been recently sold by the society for the erection of villas, The committee entertain the expectation that the rector of Forest Hill, the Rev. Mr. C:arke, will be able to carry out hie intention of providing additional accommodation, for his parish, by raising a fund to erect a church on the Brockley Hill estate, Forest Hill. The difficulties in allotting the Avenue estate, Southamp ton, arising out of the claim of the Corporation to some common land, connecting the main frontage with the high road, being nearly removed, the committee hope that the property may soon be offered for sale. An important allotment, consisting entirely of freehold and leasehold villas and houses belonging to the society at Brighton, Oxford, St. Margaret's, Putney, Enfield, North Bow, etc., will take place in the ensuing month. It will be a good opportunity to many persons looking out for house 7, either as residences or as investments, especially as the Pn vilego of paying the purchase money by easy instalments will be granted. It is an essential element o f th e s ociety's system, that it affords the cheapest and best opportunity to the provident i nves t or to b ecome e ventually his oAn. landlord.
