This Company is established f o r th e p urpose o f purc h as i ng the property and continuing the business of the well known Oxford and Canterbury Music Halls, so successfully con ducted by the present proprietor, Mr. Charles Morton, for several years pa-t. The Directors, in bringing the present Company before the Public, are not inviting subscriptions to an unknown or un tried venture, but to an established and highly remunerative undertaking, and one which, with the additional means at the command of a Joint-stock Company, may be made still more so. An agreement has been entered into for the purchase of the *whole of Mr. Morton's interest in these properties, tog'ether with the goodwill of the business and the stock in trade, on terms highly advantageous to the Company, and in order to show his confidence in its future success, he has subscribed for one-fourth of the entire capital, and will continue for some years the manager. It is the intention of the Company to increase the hotel accommodation, which has hitherto been found inadequate, and thus materially add to the present large returns. There is also an excellent private wine trade attached to both establishments, which is capable of considerable extension. It is impossible to show, with certainty, by any statistics, the returns which may be expected from the present under taking, but the certified accounts for the last three years show an annual profit of upwards of 20 per cent. upon the whole amount of capital, whch it is contemplated eventually to call up, The present average attendance at the Oxford and Canter bury Music Halls is about 60,000 a month, and the proposed extension of business will doubtless render the profits of the undertaking still more remunerative than ever. One. half of the capita has been already applied for, and applications for the remainder should be made to the bankers of the Company, accompanied by a deposit of £1 per share ; if no allotment be made Ihe deposit will be returned. ProsF ectuses and forms of applicati n for shares may be obtained at the Oxford and the Canterbury, at the Brokers, and at the Temporary Offic s of the Company.

They ran thus to the Mans field Turn, where Fisherman's Daughter gave way, and Sir Roger drew up. When fairly in the straight Pearl Diver came to the front—on the outside of Welcome and Alabama—and the latter compounding at the distance, the other two ran a fine race home. Welcome appeared to have the best of the struggle until he stumbled half a dozen strides from home, whereupon Pearl Diver got slightly in front and won by a head.

Th© following threatening letter was received by Mr E. Brayley, the owner of the Pearl Diver, at Nottingham, yesterday, and handed to our reporter. The writer of the cowardly effusion, however, was saved the trouble of carry ing his threat into execution, and Mr Brayley would have treated the matter with the contempt it deserves but for the reason that the publicity given to the circumstance in our columns might put the ruffianly writer to shame ; or better still, possibly lead to his detection : " To Mr Brayley. "SIR,—If you dont run your Pearl Diver straight in the Nottingham Handicap to-morrow and win (which you can) look out for your last visit to the racecourse. " Come, it's all over with you; the milking must be stopped.—From "A VICTIM VERY DEEPLY TAKEN IN. " They'll all have it, if not run straightforward, "Nottingham, To Mr. Brayley, owner of Pearl Diver, Nottingham Racecourse; or Cannon, the jockey." THE WIMBLEDON MEETING, Yesterday there were two events of main interest to the public apart from those results affecting the general body of Volunteers. These were the issue of the contest for the Queen's Prize, and the match for the Ashburton Shield between the representas tives of the public schools. The former was not decided until close upon the hour when the evening gun was fired, and the excitement connected with it was something unusual, in consequence of the rumour, which gained a general circulation for two hours, that Colonel Halford had made a score which there was no likelihood of beating. Twenty■ four of the competitors retired from the contest, and of the remainder who had to fire it was be. lieved that, though they might strive among them selves for the honour of second place, none of them had any chance of winning. Great, therefore, was the surprise when it became known that Private Wyatt, of the Ist London Rifle Brigade, had first equalled and then beaten by one point the capital score of the Colonel of the Leicester Regiment. The news seemed to spread like wildfire to the camp of the Ist London ; his comrades were either round the icing-point at the time Private Wyatt delivered his last shot, or else arrived immediately afterwards, and set up such loud and continued shouts of rejoicing that some of the other compe titors who had still to fire complained afterwards, though without much show of reason as far as the scores were concerned, that their chance of success was prejudiced by the turmoil. As soon as the con test had finally concluded Mr. Wyatt was caught up and borne towards the Council-tent on the shoulders of his friends, cheering lustily as they carried him in, additional zest being added to their victory by the fact that it was gained over one of the most distinguished rifle-shots in England. As the procession neared the offices of the Association a carriage was perceived close at hand, containing, by a fortunate coincidence, the Colonel of the London Rifle Brigade and Lady Warde. The successful competitor was at once carried in the direction of his commanding officer, and in the same flattering but somewhat unsteady seat he received the congratulations to which his performance well entitled him. He was then whisked off to the Council Tent to eomply with the usual formalities, and ultimately borne away in triumph to the quer. ters of his regiment in the Associated Camp. Although the contest was so exciting, the average shooting for the Queen's Prize was by no means so meritorious as on former occasions. This result is by some ascribed to the fact that the Volunteers shot this year independently, instead of in squads, military men insisting that by moving about and by conversation m ith their friends their attention was distracted, instead of concentrated, as it ought to have been, on the work in hand. Others are disposed to attribute the comparative failure to the quality of Whitworth rifles supplied this year, which were by no means of that superior stamp implied in the very name of Whitworth. At a general parade of the competitors for the second stage Queen's after gun-fire several of the rifles were produced and admitted to be faultless, but instances, on the other hand, were adduced where sights had fallen off and locks were so defective in construction that when the piece was at full cock and the trigger pulled the hammer caught again at half bent and the piece did not go off. Friends of Mr Whitworth urged that the price of the rifle having been reduced to £l5, a high-class weapon could not be expected for that sum. But, on the other hand, Mr Whitworth was a consenting party to the arrangement, and at the small-bore trials at Woolwich bound himself to furnish weapons in every respect equal to those of which samples were lodged with the Association. It is evident that the matter cannot remain on its present footing. In future contests better rifles must either be supplied to the competitors or else some redistribution of the prize money made, enabling them to equip themselves. Just at the present moment, when the whole subject of national armament is notoriously under conside ration, it is peculiarly unfortunateathat such a con tretemps should occur. The Public Schools Match was shot at the ex treme northern ranges—rather an unfortunate arrangement as far as spectators were concerned, who had no tramway in that direction to save them a toilsome walk under a sun hotter by many degrees than on any former day of the meeting- But there was no help for it. The school elevens were unable to attend on the day originally suggested for their competition, and yesterday the long-range firing for the second stage of the Queen's Prize closed all the ranges at the nearer side of the common at which it would otherwise have been possible to hold the match. In the end, Harrow was again the conqueror, A contest, to which the recent decision of Earl de Grey's Committee attaches considerable import ance, will take place to-day for the prizes offered in the name of Mr Storm. These prizes may be com peted for with any muzzle or breech-loading rifle taking Government ammunition, but the cartridges must not contain their own igniting principle. The competitors are to load and fire lying down, the use of a rest being optional; iu one competition the object is to make the highest number of marks in four consecutive minutes, and for the other set of prizes only two consecutive minutes are allowed. A competition somewhat similar in principle to this was carried on in the form cf a sweepstakes, partly yesterday and in part on a previous day, at Capt. M‘Gregovs favourite target of " the coming man." In the former instance the highest score made in two minutes were the following :—Drane, London Rifle Brigade, with Storm's breech loader, 13 shots 4 marks ; Hoigins, let Surrey, with Storm's breech loader, 10 rout c, 4 marks; H. G. Ross, Cambridge, with Weatley Richc:o.2's breech loader, 9 roundo, 4 mnrl.3.

We are authorised to state that the distribution of prizes will take place on Siturday, at 3 o'clock. ERRATA.—I❑ the 4th Series, Extra Prizes, yes terday, J. A.

Royal Agricultural Show at Newcastle, NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE, Tuesday. Eighteen years ago the society's show-yard occu pied somewhat over a dozen acres of its present site, but now the eye-proof hoarding encircles about 45 acres, without wasting at all too much space for perambulating crowds between the interminable rows of shedding, It is no easy walk to call upon the honorary director, Mr Brandreth Gibbs, drop into the secretary's office in another part of the ground, step into the bull park, where the machi nery is in motion, and then thread one's way across the great enclosure to the horaes' ring, or the " first class refreshments." Bigger than it was, and with greater facilities and accommodations of every kind —with chairs on which to loiter, a telegraph to take your news, and police-constables from the Imperial Parliament itself to keep eager ladies and gentle men in order, we wish the place could be a little prettier. If gay red fringes or striped cloth be too dear, at any rate the society might empower Mr Manning to grace his booths with clusters of cheer ful flags. We may borrow an ornamental idea from the Bath and West of England Society if we cannot afford to be smart like the French at their rural gatherings, We have here 380 cattle, 160 horses, more than 400 pens of sheep, and 130 pens of swine—a large increase, indeed, since the Newcastle meeting of 1846, when there were shown about half the num ber of cattle, one- third the number of horses, and about half the number of sheep. And we have here 4,000 implements and machines, instead of the 730 shown 18 years ago. The society's funds are un doubtedly flourishing ; the average country meeting receipts during the last five years (excluding the exceptional Battersea) have amounted. to £9,694, while five years before they averaged £5,177 ; five years before that they averaged £4,642 . ; and five years earlier still they averaged £4,134. But the so ciety has not maintained its progress in every respect for at the time of the last Newcastle meeting there were 6,970 members, subscribing £7,040 per annum, whereas at !present the society can only eon gratu. late itself upon the " steady support" of 4,879 members, the average number during the last five years. If the free admission of members on the 108. day and other advantages recently obtained are followed up by bold measures calculated to win the goodwill of the great farming class, we shall soon hear no more of such a left-handed style of exten sion and advancement. Among the cattle classes the Shorthorns are the wonder of the Show, and the most astonishing class is that of aged cows of this breed. The entire class of 13 animals is "generally commended," but the judges also awarded two "high commendations" to cows but little inferior to those taking the third and second prizes. Sir Matthew White Ridley's Evelina IV. is an extremely fine cow ; level, broad, deep, of great girth, handsome, and with a good coat. Mr Douglas's Maid of Athelstaue is another extraordinary good cow, and Mr Stratton and Mr Edward Rowly contribute to this splendid class animals fully equal in merit to some of the prize takers of past years. In the heifer class Mr Dou glass takes the first prize with his pretty Pride of Athelstane, beating Mr Lambert's Queen of Beauty and Mr Stratton's Diadem. Mr Eastwood's Barmp. ton Butterfly, of the Towneley -park herd, is not placed, being evidently out of condition. The yearly heifers make a large and grand class, Mr East wood's Royal Butterfly Pageant, being third to Mr Mitchell's Blue Belle, and Mr Foljambe's beautiful Gipsey Queen. Mr Richard Booth's Lady Fra grant is highly commended in this class. Sir Anthony de Rothschild wins in the heifer calf class with his Isabella Graceful, beating Lord Fever sham and Mr Douglas. The judges have been profuse with commendations on nearly all the short horn classes, irrespective altogether of any fashion able fancying of nothing but Bates a ad Booth blood, and no one will question the justice of this liberality. There are some fine yearling bulls in a remarkably good class. Among the bull calves Mr Fawkes is the winner, with his little Marquis, an animal of great size for its age, and of a good red colour, but not of great substance or expanded frame, and not with a first-rate coat. Mr Booth's second prize calf is much admired, and Lord Braybrooke and Mr Har ret show some very forward and pretty animals in this class. Of the aged and two-year•old bulls we spoke yesterday. The show of agricultural horses is small, but Mr Cottingham's Talbot, Mr Boby's Conqueror, and Mr Giles's Ploughboy, are prime specimens of the Suf folk% The Clydesdales are a small show, but there are some exceedingly fine horses, and two or three good mares and foals. The hunters make a good show, but nothing like what we have seen on for mer occasions. The sheep show is remarkable for the grand dis. play of Shropshires. Here Mr Thornton, Mr Hol land, 'l l4 dr Henry Smith, Mr Cozon, Mr Simpson, Mr Bowen, and Mr Crane support the high position of this very valuable breed. What mechanical novelties may be concealed among the " extensive assortments" of implements of the 235 exhibitors, some single stands being over 200 ft in length, it is impossible for a brief report to say. We can merely name a few. Messrs Clayton and Shuttleworth have a new traction engine coursing about the yard. Messrs Tuxford show another traction engine, fitted with grooved riggers for steam cultivation, and an application of Appold's centritugal pump for draining low lands. Messrs Rushton and Procter have a new form of straw elevator. Mr Whitehead exhibits in action a solid and perforated brick machine, pugging the clay and squeezing out the bricks at the rate of 10,000 a day. Mr James Coultas, jun., has contrived that valuable aid to the turnip fttmer, an efficient drop drill. On Mr Cran ston's stand is a new haymaker, an American " notion," in which a series of forks are actuated by separate cranks, instead of being affixed to a re volving frame. Mr Wood has a new self-raking, aide delivery reaping machine, with rake sweeping the platform independently of the reel. Messrs. Hornsby have brought out a new swathe-delivery reaper, and another reaper with " grated, drop-sheaf apparatus." Messrs. Barrett, Ezell, and Co. show a novelty in thrashing machines, the movements being all rotary. Messrs. Burgess and Key have introduced a very clever piece of mechanism into M'Cormick's sheaf-delivery reaper, simp lif y i n g and improving the action. Messrs. Peters exhibit a steam hoist or crane, raising weights by me a single piston, without _winding barrel, brea k wheel, or any intermediate gearing. l‘lessrs. Amies and Barford have attached a fan a n a:3B o f ka blast pipe to an ordinary chaff-cutting engine, bl o wing the chaff especially Messrs.

London and the world at large will be thankful that such a clue has at last been found to the track of the murderer of the late Mr Briggs as to leave no doubt that the miscreant will be brought to justice. It appears that the police at last felt themselves authorised in believing that their efforts to capture the perpetrator of the murder would be successful, and frcm information which had been received they pro ceeded to the house of a cabman at B )w, where for some months past a German tailor named Francis Muller has lodged. This man, it now transpires, left London a few days ago for the purpose of proceeding to New York. He was discovered in this wise :—A little girl, the daughter of the cabman at whose house Francis Muller had lived, said that after his leaving, four days ego, she found in the room he had occupied a small cardboard box such as jewellers put their various wares in, and on exhibit ing it to her father ho remembered the name of the trades man with whom the chain of the late Mr Briggs had b ee n exchanged. The cabman immediately communicated with the police authorities, and the box was by them taken to Mr Death's establishment, that person's name and address being engraven on the inside, Upon its being shown to Mr Death he at once identified it as one of his boxes, and such an one as he should have used wherein to place a chain similar to that exchanged for the one supposed to have been taken from the late unfortunate gentleman, Mr Briggs, and which had been identified as his property. That slight clue having been obtained, of course the next step was to connect Muller with the man who sold the chain to Mr Death, and Mr Death, in company with the cabman and the police, went down to the cottage at Bow where Muller had lived, and, upon seeing a photo graph Muller had given to the child, he at once recognized the features of the person who changed the chain on Mon day. It is almost needless to add that this discovery assured the police they were on the right scent at last, and the next step was to ascertain whether the hat which had been found in the carriage on the railway on the night of the murder, and which it was evident had belonged to the person who had committed the crime, could in any way be connected with the man Muller. The cabman was therefore taken up to Scotland-yard, and upon the hat being shown to him, ho at once knew it as one he had purchased for Muller about four months ago. This seemed so conclusive that Inspector Tanner immediately went back to Scotland-yard, stated the discoveries that had been made, and, accompanied by In spector Thompson, proceeded to Bow-street police-office, and there obtained a warrant for the apprehension of Francis Muller. The next step was to inquire as to the probable residence of the now suspected murderer, and as he had on leaving his lodgings stated his intention of going abroad, close inquiry was set on foot as to any person bearing a similar resemblance having left the country. Success crowned the inquiries of the acute detectives, and a person fully identified as the suspected murderer. Muller was as certained to have left London four days ago in a ship bound direct for New York, the passage occupying on the average 19 days, and which, having cleared the Downs many hours before the inquiries were set afoot, must be far away before this reaches the public eye. Government resources were at once asked for and granted. Sir George Grey gave every facility, and an Admiralty steamer from Liverpool has some hours since borne Inspector Tanner and Sergeant Clarke to arrest the murderer, or more probably await his arrival on his landing, as the steamer, barring accidents, will reach America at least four days before the sailing vessel that conveys the villain flying from justice, Mr Death, the jeweller, and the cabman, whose name our reporter did not ascertain, accompanied the police offi cers in the Government steamer, for the purpose of person ally identifying Muller, and no doubt whatever exists in the minds of the police that Muller will soon be in the hands of justice. The clue so far obtained has been of course some additional incentive to inquiries likely to prove successful. The history of Muller, as far as can at present be gleaned, shows that he came to this country about 18 months ago, and followed his occupation as a tailor, and it was not un frequently noticed that he had in his possession a very fine gold watch and massive chain, by no means according with kis position, or the money at his command. Whether he was in the habit of drinking, or how the circumstances arose, Muller would never divulge, but some months ago he got into a broil with some women or woman, and lost his watch and chain. He refused to give any description of them, to offer any reward, or make any inquiries, but has continually complained, and most bitterly, of the loss he had sustained. Since the murder he has, as has now been ascertained, shown on several occasions a watch, a very handsome one, and said he had saved up money enough to liuy it, and was quite contented at having been able to get one. The chain which the man Muller obtained from Mr Death he pledged on Tuesday at a pawnbroker's in the city, and sold the ticket on the day following to another tailor, a friend of his, a Ger man. This man, Ilion being questioned by Inspector Thom son at Scotland-yard, admitted that he had read about the murder, but had not said anything to any ono about the chain, and it has not been considered that there was suffi cient evidence to justify the police in detaining him for any complicity in the murder. He will, however, remain under surveillance so as to be forthcoming at the trial upon Mul ler's being brought back t o this country. No trace what- ever has been found of the watch itself, and it may be fairly expected, and for the ends of justice hoped, that Muller has it still in his possession, and that it will be found upon him, so as to constitute an tindoubted link in the chain of evidence. The servants of the railway authorities speak confidently as to their ability to identify the man supposed to have got into the carriage with Mr Briggs, and it is understood that the photograph of Muller will be shown to them to add to the circumstantial evidence already obtained. FURTHER PARTICULARS. On Monday morning a cabman named Jonathan Mat thews was taken to the Harrow-street Station, where he made the following communication :—" I live at No. CS, Earl-street, Lisson-grove, and am a cabman. Last night, and for the first time, I saw a placard in the Edgware-road having reference to a murder committed on the North London Railway. I communicated certain information to a Waterman named Amos." The following is the communication made by the cabman before Mr Henry, the chief magistrate at Bow-street, yes terday afternoon : 4 , lknow Franz Muller. He is a native of Cologne. Hie age, as he told me, is 25, and for some time past he has been employed as a shirt cutter in the firm of Hodgkinson, hosiers, of Threadneedle-street, in the city. Seven or eight months ago he commenced to keep company with my sister, and as her suitor he was in the habit of coming to my house. 1 remember one Sunday in October or November last he came to my house and said to me, ' You have got a nice hat, where did you get it from?' I told him I had bought it from a man named Walker, a hatter, in Crawford-street. Muller said,' Well, I should like to have one like it.' I said, Well, try this on,' and he did so, but found it too tight for his head. I then said, ' I know your size now, and I will get ono for you.' I did so, and the following Sunday he came and took it away. Some time afterwards he came to my house again, when I said,' How well that hat wears ; I have had three hats since then.' I laid hold of the hat, and noticed on the inside brim a peculiar thumbmark, caused`by the hat being put on and taken off by the hand at one particular spot. The hat produced (the one found in the railway carriage) is the same, and I could swear to it. Last Monday week Muller visited my house and saw my wife. After paying her the usual compliments he took a box out of his pocket and pulled out of it a gold chain, which he said he had paid £3 10s. for that morning. He then fixed the chain on a watch and gave the box to m y c hild t o p l a y w ith. (The b og b wes produced, and identified by M r D e atb, who ras Muller pre sent, as the one which h e h a d pl ace d the chain in. then exhibited a ring which ho h d ad on n his finger, and which been was similar to the one described by Mr Dea th. Muller then began to complain, say very havingunfortunate ; rro m orning until I come, for I particularly want s©e him/ For t wo or three ,w he had been down to the city, and a cart passed hehab near his foot he had sprained his ankle. He then sa id , ' I am going to Canada ; be sure y ou see Jonathan (mean ingo me), tell him not to go out to.mo mornings I waited for bi ro , but he never ca me, and I have never seen him sine • yesterday I communicated the above facts to Inspecto r Steer, of the D divisi on , and I handed over to him the box'produced." The other evidence adduced went to show that Inspector Steer gave this information at Scotland-yard, and the Com missioners of Police immediately instructed Superintendent Tiddy and Inspector Steer to thoroughly investigate the matter. These two officers at once went to No. 16, Park terrace, Old Ford, Bow, a house kept by a man named Blyth, who said ho was in bed on the night of the day the murder was committed when Muller came home. The officers next interrogated a lodger in the house named Goodwin, a German, who said that on the night mentioned Muller came home about 11 o'clock, and ap peared very much confused, which he accounted for by say ing he had met with a severe injury in the city and had sprained his ankle. The lodger produced a pawn-ticket, which he said he had bought of Muller. The ticket related to the gold chain Muller received from Mr Death, and which Muller had pledged in a pawnshop in Bow. Mr Adams, the American Minister, was present during the whole of the examination, and at his request a copy of the depositions was prepared to be forwarded to the Home Executive in America. It further transpired in the examination that Muller sailed from the London Docks on Thursday afternoon last in the sailing vessel Victoria, bound for New York. Last night at 9 o'clock Mr Inspector Tanner, Mr Death, and the cabman started from Euston-square for Liverpool, cn route for New York by to-day's American mail. The inspector was furnished with a warrant granted by Mr Henry for the apprehension of Mu her on the charge of murder, and he also carried with him letters from Mr Adams to the Executive at Now York, MR.
