PROSPECTUS. Tho success attained by the Credit Mobilier of Paris has r ecently led to the establishment of somewhat similar insti. talons in London, their introduction meeting with marked ;success, as is ev id enced by the large dividends paid to their eleareholders,and increased value of the shares, such increase being from 100 to 200 per cent. on the amount paid. The fact that Scotland, notwithstanding the magnitude mid rapid increase of her commerce, has no institution of the kind contemplated, has suggested to the projectors of the present company the formation of an institution founded on similar principles to the Cr6dit Mobilier of Paris, but em bracing a larger field for its operations. The progress of S co tl an d has been greater during late years than that attained by any other country in the world. 6'taristies of shipbuilding on the Clyde alone, during the Year 1863, show that 171 vessels, with an ag grega t e ton *lege of 124,000 tons, were launched, while 3,148 sailing Ships, with an aggregate tonnage of 350,956 tons entered the river in the same year; but this number has been ex ceeded by the steamer; which reached the large number cf 10, 5.5 having an aggregate tonnage of not less than 435,982 tons. Une of the great advantages of this establishment will be that 4otch houses can negotiate their foreign bills through the medium of this establishment, this department being one of the most profitable in banking business. The directors have succeeded in completing arrange-. talents for th e p urc h ase of the well-known, established, end profitable business of Messrs. D. Nathan and Co., of Cornhill, London, bullion and exchange bankers (who take a levee responsibility in the company), upon such terms and" conditions as will be satisfactory to the shareholders, the paymentof the purchase money being made entirely in shares of the company. Arrangements have also been made for the transfer, upon equally favour able terms, of the business of N. Monteaux et Fils, Palais Royal, Paris, bullion and exchange bankers, long known as the oldest and most extensive establishment of the kind in Prance, and now carried on by Victor , teir Successor, who will reta i n a considerable share Monteaux interest in the co wont mpany. The coracts for the transfers of the above office o f t h e solicitors for inspection. list lie at th e These arrangements will constitute a nucleus, and enable the directors at once to commence operations, as they enter upon a valuable connection of many years' standing, and embracing a very large number of foreign teecrrespondents. The objects proposed to be effected by company are 1. To receive money at call or on deposit for fixed terms, and the ordinary business of bankers. 2. To grant temporary or permanent loans on approved public securities or private undertakings of undoubted merit stud known solidity. 3. To make advances on merchandise and dock and other warrants, on title deeds of property in possession or rever sion for any temporary purpose, on contracts for carrying cut or the finishing of works, or any other securities where their safety is unquestionable and the benefit to the cone /Nay sufficiently advantageous. 4. The purchase and sale o f th e precious metals in all their forms. The company will be enabled by its facilities and connexions, to import and export bullion, and to deal in foreign coins and bank notes on an extensive scale. 6 . By means of the Paris branch it is proposed to un dertake the shipment of silver to the East via Marseilles, which can be done at a considerable saving of expense and time. 6 . The bu s i ness transacted by the issue of small bills and letters of credit for the convenience of travellers and emi grants is incredible. Remittances from America to Ireland alone amount to several millions sterlin e anum. B affording the sam e f ac i l i ties to the English, Ger n man, andy Fren c h p o p u l at i on of America it is confidently anticipated that most profitable business can be done. 7. To negotiate approved foreign or inland bills, to trans mit funds in specie and in bills or otherwise, to any foreign State, and to arrange purchases or sales of any British or foreign securities at home or abroad. 8. To cash coupons and to reali se or undertake the management of the dividends on loan or other securities. Application for shares to be made to the secretary, at the temporary offices of the company or the brokers.

They ran thus to the distance, where Lady di Vergy took up the running, and Overture closed with her, and, after being ridden home, the favourite won by half a length; three-quarters of a length separated the second and third, Poland a good fourth, and Lady Wey mouth a bad fifth.

At the distance Sister to Gillie dropped away, and Swift in the centre, Lovelace on the left, and the Valleda colt on the right came on together, and to these three the race was left, and Swift maintaining the front position to the end won by half a length; a length separated the second and third; Teesdale was a good fourth, and Sister to Gillio and Quiz, close together, finished four lengths in rear of Teesdale.

Although they have been deplorably late about it, they have now been brought, on hard bought experience, to acknowledge the immense ad vantage of the superior artillery of the Prussians, and are confident that they would soon be able to meet their foe with more equal weapons. That they will have sufficient strength to hold the Little Belt and its narrow sound at Middlefart seems a general conviction here. Were even Wilster and Linden krone to be driven from the extreme point of North Jutland, the Danes think Funen and Zealand could never be involved in the fate of their Cimbrian mainland.

Among the dead bodies which I saw stretched out on the floor of Ulkebol Church during the last days of my sojourn in Alsen was that of one on the breast of whose coat was pinned a label, with the words, "En unkjeendt officeer." It was the corpse of a short, thick-set man, about 40 years of age, with short thick hair, fall dark beard, with strong and somewhat harsh features, composed to the sleeplike calmness of death, with his arms stretched along his sides, and the fists tightly closed. That corpse had been for a day in the hands of the Prussians, lost in the crowd of the dead and wounded; it had been rowed across, and had lain for two days in Ulkebol Church, and it still went by the name of the " unknown officer." It was then conveyed to Augustenburg in an open coffin ; it has been left exposed in the vestry of the church there, as if in a kind of Morgue, and has been seen by nearly all the military and civilians who are still tarrying on the spot, and the photo graph of the body and of its coffin is now published in the Illustreite Zeitung, in the faint hope that the perfect likeness may lead to its eventual identifica tion. There ought now to be little chance of it. The man was probably a Swede or Bornholmer, one of the several officers who used to drop in upon as as volunteers at the various stages of the cam paign. He may have arrived either direct from home, or from Fredericia on the very eve of the last attack upon Dybbol; he may have ventured ant across the bridges on his first arrival, without either reporting himself at head-quarters or attach ing himself to any corps, and had thus none of his superiors or subalterns, no comrade or friend, to re cognise him. His rank itself could not be ascer tained, as the shoulder straps, the only distinction in a Danish uniform, had been torn from his coat ; but the flue cloth allowed no doubt as to his being an officer. Hard was the fate of the un known dead. The most touching obsequies, the most signal honours have been paid both in Copenhagen and all over the kingdom to the remains of officers and privates fallen in this patriotic war. The body of each man has been faithfully consigned to the pious cares of those who had a right to claim it. Hardly one was lowered in DR. HARVEY ON CORPULENCE.

The latter made play, followed by Practitioner and Hand maid side by side to the distance, where Practitioner took a slight lead, and upon the Fiction colt dropping back, Vision came up, and was only beaten by a head ; two lengths separated the second and third.

Ibex and Belle of the Vale jumped away slightly in front of Bradamante, Outpost being several lengths in the rear. After going half a mile, Belle of the Vale ran on the wrong side of a post, which left Ibex with a clear lead, which he maintained till within three-quarters of a mile from home, where Bradamante took up the running, and was joined by Outpost. Jemmy Grimshaw waited on Outpost to the half distance, where he came away and won easily by two lengths. The other two did not pass the post.

Afterwards the horses were ordered to tun again, the original bets standing, and the quartette again went to the post. The betting prior to the non. start was 6 to 4 each against the Katie Stewart colt and Dr. Swishtail, and in the final race 5 to 1 was laid on the Katie Stewart filly, who made all the running and won easily by two lengths; a similar distance separated the second and third ; Vera Cruz was beaten off.

Only the poor " unknown" lies still ab3ve ground unclaimed, unhonoured, unwept; and, perhaps, far away in some distant home in Dalecarlia, in Gothland, far away on the shores of some Swedish bay or Norwegian cord, some deso late home is plunged into all the pangs of expecta tion, and uncertainty, and may have long to wait before it is reached by the undoubted tiditsgs of its irreparable bereavement. I find that I had greatly under.estin2ated the amount of contribution exacted by the Austro-Prus slang in the province of Jutland. The towns alone nad been charged 650,000 Prussian thalers; but the country was made, besides, to pay 25 thalers per the tonde hartkorn (a measure of land, the extent of which 1 cannot at this moment ascertain). There are in Jutland 170,942 of such measures, and the contribution amounts thus to 4,274,300 Prus sian thalers. The Austrians have compelled 2,000 inhabitants of Jutland to work at the demolition of th© forts of Fredericis. STATE OF TRADE, MANCHESTER, May 13.—The Liverpool cotton market was much quieter yesterday, with easier prices, and, though it had recovered steadiness this • morning, the sudden change has not been without some effect here, more especially on the cloth mar ket. The excitement reported in this branch of our trade on Tuesday has nearly disappeared. Buyers of India goods have been unwilling all along to fel. lew the upward course of the cotton and yarn mar kets, and their operations have been very small, Where purchases have been made sellers have ob tained some advance on the old rates, but nothing like the rates generally demanded. Still, as the stocks of cloth are generally rather light, manufacturers show a good deal of firmness, and being disinclined to take orders at the rates offered by shippers the business effected has been very limited. Cloths suitable for the home trade have gone off rather better, and, though the quantities taken have not been large, sellers report better success in obtaining the ad vanced rates they are demanding. Printing cloths of good quality have been in demand, and fair prices have been obtainable. In shipping yarns we have had a strong market for all kinds, and especially for those made from long-stapled cotton. Some of the spinners of this class of yarns have declined to sell, while others are asking a considerable advance on the rates of this day week. In the common i range of yarns, mad e f rom S urat cotton, there is not much change in price, and only a limited business. For home trade yarns the market has been quiet but firm. Manufacturers having previously supplied their wants have not shown much disposition to purchase to.day ; but spinners are asking the full rates of Tuesday. STOKE•IIPON-TRENT, 14th.—The announcement of the suspension of hostilities between the belli. gerents in Denmark has led to a slightly improved tone in the iron trade of the North Staffordshire district, and a hope is entertained that in the event of the money market becoming easier the demand for iron will very perceptibly increase. All the works appear to be making full time, or nearly so, and the demand for plates stands at a good average. The earthenware trade continues flourishing, the exports for April to the Federal States alone ex ceeding those of the corresponding month of last year by several thousand crates.

HENRY DUNBAR.—The publishers state that the whole of the first edition of this new novel, by the author te of '`Lady Andley's Secret," has b een completely aus on the first day of publication ; and that a second exhausted edition is in the press, and will be ready on Monday next. Admirers of Miss Braddon's prolific pen have much cause to rejoice in her popularity, the growth of which is now made more manifest than ever by the simultaneous issue of her writings in the French, German, and English languages. It is understood that Mr. Mudie and the leading library companies have taken unprecedentedly large numbers of ,6 Henry Dunbar," the public inquiry for early copies of which has had no parallel amongst recent works of fiction. /"c-t;,:1 1174-'-.-,,„..\1\.. -/..) - - //A ...... a / 7 . . / e- -e f - e - - C••• r. _ r. . . . . - . . . . _.... c _..,....__, .

The ordinary weekly meeting of the Metropolitan Ba i l S of Works was held yesterday, at their offices, Spring- Gardens; Mr. John Thwaites in the chair. The cash statement showed that the balances in the hands of the treasurer were, cn current accounts, £162,079 12s. Bd.; on deposit accounts, £63,300; and on Government securities, £98,306 75. 2d. THE THAMES EMBANKMENT. Mr, Dalton brought up the report of the Thames Em bankment committee, submitting the correspondence between the chairman of the hoard and the Chancellor of the Exchequer, on the subject of a Government guarantee for the re -payment of the loan for the Thames Embank mentu'ork arrangements' and south, y carrying g d the o ut the ow proposition street to the on on Mansion H ouse ; fortogether with copy o f Treasury- minute t he certain terms. The report stated that the board could not raise money at l ess than 41 per cent., unless the Govern. meat would g uarantee the re -payment of the debt, as they did with the m a i n d rainage scheme, in which case they could get the loan at 34 per cent. The chairman of the board represented to the Chancellor of the Exche qu , r those facts, and he recommended to the T ords of the Treasury to give the guarantee provided the board would introduce into any bill for carrying out that object a L ower to charge the rates the rnetrepe;is with any deficiency which might arise in the funds new appropriated by parlia ment to meet the ch trge. The right hon. gentleman also suggested that the Government might advance the money out of the surplus moneys received from savings banks and post-office savings banks at a rate of interest of 34 per cent. The Lords Commissioners of the Treasury had intimated their concurrence in the suggestions made to them by the Chancellor of the Exchequer. By this arrangement they would be able to obtain the money re quired for the execution of the embankment works and the new street on much more reasonable terms than they could have hoped to negotiate a loan in the money market, and that a saving to the public to the extent of £18,600 per annum, or £334,103 in the whole, would be effected in the payment of interest. The committee recommended that the arrangement proposed by the Treasury be ap proved, and that the solicitor of the board be placed in com munication with the Crown solicitor in reference to the bill to be introduced into Parliament for giving effect to the same. ( The motion was agreed to unanimously. DIVISION OF THE LAMBETH DISTRICT. Mr. Robert Taylor moved that it be referred to the build ing act and general purposes committee to consider the pro priety of dividing the districts now under charge of Messrs. J. 11. Taylor and Parsons. Mr. Savage seconded the motion, and it was agreed to. THE FIRE•ESCAPE BRIGADE. It was resolved that the board should take the escape brigade under their charge in connection with the fire brigade, and recommending that the necessary provision be made in the bill to be introduced into Parliament in relation. thereto. The board then adjourned. The Royal Victoria Friendly Society Again, Mr John Lawrence, of the Triangle, Hackney, and Mr. John Monk, of Leslie-street, Mile-end-road, were charged before Mr. Cooke, at Worship -street Police-court, the former on re-examination, for that they being, one the managing secretary and treasurer, and the other being secretary, treasurer, and trustee, of the Royal Victoria Friendly Sick and Assurance Society, did unlawfully with hold the sum of £lB lOs from Margaret Forde, widow of John Forde, that being the amount for which her husband had insured his life in the said society. Mr Bury Hutchinson, as before, appeared for the widow, and Mr Nind, from Mr Abbott's offices, for the first- named defendant. Mr Hutchinson now said that since the last examination he had put himself into communication with Mr Tidd Pratt's office, and found that though an application had been made to dissolve the Royal Victoria Society, its affairs had been found in so unsatisfactory a state that the application had been refused. This society, therefore, which had been stated to have been dissolved, and to have merged into another similar association subsequently established, called the Prince of Wales, was, in fact, still in existence, and both defendants liable for the claimant's demand. Oa the 31st of January, 1863, Mr Monk was appointed a trustee, and Messrs, Sadler and Hitchcock trustees also, and a very curious fact in connection with Mr Monk was, that an audited account or balance -sheet of the affairs of the society having been furnished on its behalf, Mr Monk went down to Mr Tidd Pratt's office, and there told tbem that it was a fradulent account, as it only repre sented about half of the members. Under the act govern gig such cases, where trustees had not received any money on behalf of the society, they might not be liable, but those persons who had received the money on behalf of the asso ciation were to be held to be trustees as far as the purposes of the society were concerned. Now, he should be able to show that Mr Monk had received money for the purposes of the society, and that though he had not given new policing on the Prince of Wales Society being started, he had given out fresh cards which professed to be for the latter society, but he contended that, the Victoria being now found to be a still existent association, he and the other defendant were liable to the complainant for its funds. It was clear to him that the defendants had been concerned i n a conspiracy, for Mr. Lawrence, when here on the last occasion, had acknow ledgerl that these societies were a swindle upin the public, and that he knew them to be so. In July, 18t33, it was den that the society was utterly insolvent, Mr. Monk claiming to be entitled to a large balance in his favour, and he con tended that the society being so carried on, while there were no funds in existence, rendered the persons conducting it manifestly guilty of a conspiracy. The case was not now so properly before the court as it should be, in consequence of the poverty of the claimant, ;but he could prove here after that this society had been deceiving from 3,000 to 5,000 of these poor people, and that whatever money Mr. Monk had got hold of he had kept for his own private pur poses, and chat Mr. Lawrence had done ,the same. Mr. Lawrence repudiated having anything to do with the so ciety, and referred him to Mr. Monk as the person answer able, while there were no arbitrators to settle this claim, as they said the society was no longer in existence. Messrs. Monk and Lawrence had received money on behalf of the society, on their own showing, each, as it appeared, having received about £6OO from the members, and that he consi dered amounted to a fraud, as he should show they had never pt id the money over to the trustees. Mr. Lawrence admitted there was no dispute about the money, but cwjahteitohne,ratnhd he the woman said she was was notne. entitled t to it from th e ease- Other evidence having been given, Mr. Cooke said—l have not the least doubt you can re cover from the trustees. I have no doubt that Monk and the other trustees are liable —are responsible for the whole claim, and that all in office at the time of this woman's husband's death are responsible. The statement made is that the society did not pretend to dissolve till the 21st of November, and the woman's husband died on the Gth, when there was a full force of officers of the society subsisting. I shall dismiss the adjourned summons against Mr. Lawrence, adjourn the other for a fortnight, and you (Mr. Hutchinson) can in the meantime consider what course you will pursue. Mr. Hutchinson—A person in a much higher position than myself may then take it up, for these poor people have not money to do so. The defendant here said something, and Mr, Hutchinson said—" Mr, INlonk says that they will not got a copper frora him," Mr, Monk—No, not anything from me, for I am not iable Mr. Hutchinson—This is a parallel case to that which the Treasury took up against three persons before, When they got 18 months each.

Vander yell, Esq., in which Mr. W. Randall will re-appear. ALSO, PRINCE BLOSSOM; OR, THE FAIRIES OF THE MAGIC FOUNTAIN AND THE The War in Denmark (From the Times Special Correspondent lately alike Danish Head - quarters.) COPENHAGEN, May 10. General Wilater left Copenhagen on Saturday. It was said he was only going to Assens, in Funen; but I have reason to believe that his further destination is Frederickehaven, in the north of Jutland, whither three regiments were to accoms pany or to follow him. General Wilster was, as you may remember, in command at Frederickstadt, on the Eider, at the outbreak of the war in Schles wig, and when the abandonment of the Dannewerke was resolved upon he withdrew his garrison from the stronghold which was committed to his care, and effected his retreat with a skill and in an order that was highly commended at the time. Subse quently Wilater was sent to Fredericia, in Jutland, and had the supreme management of that fortress till, on the first attack of the Austrians, he was wounded, together with Major Hoffmann, the chief, and two other officers of his staff, and had to resign his command to Col. Lundig. Gen. Wilater has now recovered from his wounds (his less fortu nate chief of the staff, Hoffmann, died the other day, after long suffering), and upon his effecting the junction of his troops with the division of H egermann-Lindenkrone it is expected he may achieve something worthy of his well-established renown. General Wil s t er i s a compara ti ve l y young man— not, I should thi n k , a b ove 45 years old ; at any ra t e in the fall enjoyment of all his faculties. It has been the ill-lack of Denmark in this war to have her troops commanded by men promoted to the highest ranks by mere right of seniority, men who talked in their proclamations of " unsheathing a sword which had hung on their side for 50 years, forget. ting that the innocent weapon had done little more for half a century than rattle and clatter on the pa lace stairs at the King's levees, or lie in the corner of a room at the War-office. But here, in Denmark, we had worthy gentlemen who won, perhaps, their epaulettes and girt on their swords at the Peace of 1814, who, in all probability did good duty in a subordinate capacity at the head of a company or a battalion during the wild desultory war of 1849, and who, after rusting like old blades in their scab bards, have emerged at the head of their country's forces, and have assumed the general direction of a campaign merely on the strength of their having outlived their comrades and superiors. The evil is in the system, and the system is fair and honest in theory, no doubt, though pre ctically the effect is deplorable. We have had here for the last three months generalissimoG whom it would have delighted poor Thackeray to describe—padded and painted septuagenarians, but who seldom showed them selves to their soldiers, and before whose counterfeit juvenility their soldiers could scarcely keep their countenance. Wilster and Lundig, Lessons, and Du Plat, and others who have done good work, had also seen war, and it was upon these and upon subaltern officers on the Staff, such as Stjernholm, Rosen, &c., that the real conduct of the campaign eventually devolved. It is high time now, if the war is to pro ceed, that the true leaders should stand forth in the foremost rank, and the depa r t ure o f Wilster f or Jutland is looked upon here as a good move, espe cially as he will fi n d i n command of one of Linden krone's brigades that Col. Beck who at the head of the 10th (Copenhagen) Regiment s trood his ground so manfully agai nst a large force of Austrians at 0 verso on the ret reat from the Dannewerke. What good that small Lindenkrone division, even if raised by the reinforcements that are to be sent with Wilster to a force of 8,000 or 10,000 comba tants, may effect upon Coming into collision with such masses of troop s as the Austro-Prussians can bring against it, I sh a ll not undertake to discuss. One cannot help wonderi ng at the pluck and energy of this little Denmark, wh o, after being worsted in defence of these strongholds on which her chief reli ance rested, does not even in these extremities shrink from a prolonged conflict in the open field. There are, I am told, in those wilds of Northern Jutland, all along the line of the winding Lumfjorden, swam ps and morasses most propitious to the ma noeuvres D a nes, it is true, have no light troops of any ki n d ; and alth ough they contend th at their foot soldiery a anan and extensive trained to do d uty as li g ht infan try,guerilla warfare. The still I question wh ether their mea are of the proper bulk re aua rm of f d and build for b ersaglieri work; and, although it m ig ht be possible to p i c k out i n di v id ua l s from the various corps in some manner answering the purpose, I doubt whether so ldi ers t h e vast ma jority of whom have hardly b een three mont h s under arms can be fitted for such comp li cate serv i ce as that of tiraleurs a nd Zouaves on th e spur o f th e moment. Events will solve all these qu es ti ons if h ost ili t i es are to be carried on. This very day th e C on f erence meet in London, and the result of thei r d e lib erat i on ought to be either an a rmistice or a b rea ki ng up of all farther negotiation. As far as I can make out, the Government here build no very so lid hopes on endeavours the results attainable by the well -meant of the mediating Power s • For their ow n part, they seem anxious for a cessation of hostiliti es , and are willing to meet their a d ve rsaries more th an half way. I have been positi vel y assured that th e C opan hagen Cabinet is not only ready to giv e up the blockade of the Baltic ports, but also to acc e d e to the restitution of the captured vessels. On th e other hand, they deem themselves e ntitled to dem an d the complete evacuation of Jutland • and the indemnifi cation_ viduals wh o h ave of the communities and in d I been either subjected to con t r ibutions, or wh o h ave otherwise been despoiled and plundered by th e Ger man invaders. Such an arra ngement would l eave the Austro-P russ i ans in possession of the w h o l e Schleswig m a i n l an d, an d fully satisfy the d emands put forw ar d b y M ars h a l Wrangel at the outb rea k of the war. His intimation to General do M ete was that be, Wran ge l, s h ou ld be allowed to occup y and to administer S c hl esw i g in the name of th e a lli ed Sovereigns. What the Danes would tot g i ve of their own accor d h as b een no w taken from th em b y force of arm s , an d th o p ar ties have it now i n t h e i r power to treat on th e basis or iginally propo se d b y the Germa n P owers . I b e li e ve that, with a v i ew to remove all subject s o f di s pute, the Danish Govern ment would con sen t t o th e temporary abandonment of Ale, Arnie, and other minor isles belonging to the duchy of Schl esw i g, i nto t h e en emy's hands. All these matters are, I have no doubt, being de bated in London, in the bosom of the Conference, at the moment I am writing; but, whatever the results of to day's sitting of the Plenipotentiaries may be, I thought it might at some future time, and in the event of the negotiation mis carrying, be of importance that the world should know what I firmly believe is the disposition of mind of the Danish Ministers at this moment.
