ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS. The " London and Venezuela Bank" has for its proposed operations a ground unoccupied, and is most urgently re quired. Preliminary negotiations have been in progress for some months, and the project has been sub .nitted to the Judgment of the most eminent Venezuelan merchants. and has met with their unqualified approval. Support is promised in highly influential quarters, and the Directors are assured that the privilege of issuing Bank notes will be accorded by the Government. The banking facilities which Caracas has hitherto pos sessed have been very limited, but the fast that the Bank of Caracas, which will now merge into this establishment, has -despite its restricted means—earned a net profit exceed ing 30 percent. per annum. leaves no doubt that the present undertaking will result in complete success. The following, published by Messrs. Matheson and Co., while inviting tenders for tht Venezuelan Loan in June last, Will confirm the above statements " At present there h almost an entire absence of banking a ccommodation in Venezuela. Possessed ot every advantage of climtte and soil, within sixteen days' sail of England, the existing, monetary facilities are quite inadequate to the com merce of the country, and to the increasing production and rapidly extending exports of its coffee, cocoa, cotton, hides, dtc.# s # The advantages of this Institution will be obvious to all, and as the rates of interest range from 10 to 15 per eent. , per annum, the profits may be exTeeted to be considerable,' It may be added, that since that period, owing to the in creased and increasing demand for cap tal for the cultivation of cotton, which is now being exported to England in large quantities, it finds safe and profitable employment at much higher rates than those quoted by Messre. Matheson, The want of an Exchange Bank in Venezuela occasions the utmost inconvenience in buying and selling foreign bills ; this Bank will supply the want, and as returns can be made with far greater r ,pidity from Venezuela than from India, where banking facilities of a like nature have been found extremely profitable, it is certain this branch must be still more remunerative. The principal control of the London and Venezuela Bank will be vested in the Board of Directors in England. They will select a manager of known qualifications, who, on his arrival, wi I have he assistance and advice of the Directors In Caracas and La Guayra, who are Europeans of high standing in the country, and well known in conneation with Venezuelan trade and finance. Fall pro pectases, with forms of appli ations for shares, may be procured of the Bankers, Solicitors, Brokers or t•ecre tary, at the Ofli - eg of the Comp any, w h ere the Articles of As sociation may be inspected, and every information obtained.

To grant temporary or permanent loans on approved public securities or private undertakings of undoubted merit and 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 out or the finishing of works, or any other securities where their safety is unquestionable and the benefit to the com pany sufficiently advantageous. 4. The purchase and sale of the 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.

Fillo de l'Air, in her two-year-old form, was a magnificent animal, and her performances, more especially in the Criterion, extraordinary. Her run ning in the Two Thousand Guineas this year was certainly curious, to say the least of it. She was never in the race from the moment the flag fell, finished nowhere, and pulled up as cool as it she had walked the Rowley Mile, instead of gallopped it. Then we heard of her at Paris carrying off with ease the French Oaks, and returned to her old form. And now, directly the betting on the Oaks opened in earnest, she was made a hot favourite. An indifferent lot came to the post for the opening race to-day—the Ewell Plate, which the favourite, Nucleus, put to Count Batthy any's credit very easily. The fielders were again hit in the Durdans, Bandarilla, hard held, running away from her horses, and never giving Nucleus a chance of reaching her. But, then, with the previous race in him, this was hardly to be expected. Out of the 21 entered for the great race, the Hersey filly was the only absentee. A very fair-looking lot of fillies they were, Fille de l'Air being of course conspicuous among them, and looking in grand order, and as if she meant business this time. Tene riffe we did not fancy so much as we did at Bath, Sara gossa and Tomata striking us as looking very fit and well. One of the handsomest there was Tooi Tooi. Molly Carew will probably never be the mare she was before ber ac cident; and the form of Masquerade, La Gazza Ladra, Sardinia, and Baudarilla must be held to be moderate. The rest call for no particular notice. Mr, M'George despatched them, after a trifling delay, to a very good start, Lord Glas gow's two showing for a short distance in front, but soon retiring, the French mare going on with the running from the bushes, and taking a lead which she maintained to ;ll e end, the only two near her at the distance beir.g Breeze and Tomato, the latter dying away and leaving her stable companion to make an effort for the " blue and yellow ;" but Edwards had the race in hand, and won easily by a length. Teneriffe proved herself but an indifferent animal, as she was not in the race after descending the hill. Sara gossa, going well within herself, on coming round the turn was seen to fall, and, we are sorry to add, she was dis covered to have broken her leg. This is a great disappoint ment to Lord Zetland, as she had been tried to be 19th. better than her stable companion, Bandarilla, who won the Durdans, and therefore he was justified in considering her chance as a very good one. There was a demonstration, not of a complimentary character, when Fille de l'Air's number was hoisted. Great groaning an.' noises of all sorts greeted the announcement of the telegraph, and a very hostile-looking crowd pressed on horse and jockey as they returned to scale. Jennings, as if anticipating some thing of the sort, had taken care to provide a few extra policemen. At all events, horse and rider reached the ring in safety, where, however, they were not received with more favour, and some very strong opinions. which we will not repeat, were uttered. Custance, who rode Antoinette, was from a similarity 'of colour mistaken for Edwards. The entrance to the weighing-room had to be barricaded to prevent the entrance of the hostile forces. It was altogether a scene suggestive of many reflections, and one we hope never to see again on Epsom Downs. The Ewell Plate (Handicap) of GO soya for all ages. One mile.

Old Course, and commenced the descent of the hill, half way down which Saragossa was seen to falter and stumble, something having struck into her heels and shattered her fetlock. Molly Carew, the Binicatcher filly, and Finesse, who were following close in her track, were fortunate enough to avoid a serious collision by pulling up, but in so doing they seriously affected whatever chance they might have possessed. The leaders retained their relative positions to the turn into the straight, when Madam Walton, in company with Molly Carew, drew forward, and followed the leaders to the road. Teneriffe was then dis posed of, and Lady de Trafford followed the leader to two distances from home, when she also appeared in difficulties. In a stride or two further she was headed by the Baron's two, who came up on the lower ground, Tomata still hav ing the best of Breeze; but at the distance she tired, and left her stable companion and the favourite to finish the race home. Opposite the stand Daley made a vigorous effort to get up, which was frustrated by Edwards, who, dropping his hands, won with great ease by a length ; two lengths between the second and third. Molly Carew was fourth, Lady de Trafford fifth, Merry Wife sixth, Tooi Tooi seventh, and La Gazza Ladra next; pulling up im mediately in their wake came Lord Glasgow's pair, An toinette, Teneriffe, Sardinia, Finesse, and Cutaway ; the latter walked in and did not pass the post.

Naval. and ItTilitaq - The vesscis forming the Anglo..Chincse fleet, re. terAly in command of Captain Sherard Osborn, 0.13., are, by order of the Admiralty, to be removed from Woolwich and placed under the charge of Capt. W. K. Hill, C. 8., of the Cumberland, 21, guardship of Sheerness Steam Reserve. Tne Tien-tsin, the Pectin, and the China arrived at Sheerness yesterday. The Medusa, paddlewheel vessel, 889 tons, 312 horse power, Master in Command John H. Allard, sailed from Sheerness for Portsmouth on Thurs day last to convey from that port two mortar ves sels, which are, to be employed as coastguard watch vessels, one at Gravesend and the other on the coast of Essex. Previous to the Medusa leav ing Sheerness, and while taking on board her liberty-men, one of the crew fell into the water, and was with difficulty saved from drowning by the boatswain of the ship, W. Donaghue, jumping after him. This is the third person that Dmaghtle has saved from drowing by risking his own life since he joined the ship in 1863. The double screw launch No. 4, one of the number ordered by the Admiralty to be ,supplied to each flagship in commission, and in the pre sent instance fitt:d out for service with the Edgar, straw line-of-battle ship, flagship of the Comman der-in-Chief of the Channel Fleet, was tried offi cially at the measured mile in Stokes bay, near Portsmouth, on Thursday, under the superin tendence of the officials of the steam factory and reserve of the Portsmouth Dockyard, No. 4is fitted with engines of a nominal power of four horses, by Messrs. J. Penn and Son, which drive two four-bladed screws, having each a diam2ter of two feet and a pitch of 3 feet 41 inches. She carried her masts and sails, with one tone of coals, and the number of men she would have as her regular crew, but without her gun and ammunition. The mean speed of her runs over the mile wa56.282 knots, which was considered highly satisfactory. The Orontes, screw troopship, 500 horse power, Capt. H. W. Hire, was ordered to make her official trial of machinery yesterday at Portsmouth, on the completion of alterations and repairs to her boilers and engines, the pressure of steam having been re• duced from 251b.t0 121 b. Steam was accordingly got up in the boilers by 1 p.m., and Capt. H. Caldwell, C. 8., accompanied by his staff, went on board to conduct the trial; but on preparing to cast the ship's lashings cif from the dockyard transport jetty it was fcund that one of her boilers was leaking, notwith standing the reduced pressure of steam, and the trial was therefore postponed until to day. It is certainly somewhat remarkable that the Orontes should, as a rule, fail under steam, being, as she is, an Admiralty " improved" Himalaya, ane consider ing that the latter vessel has succeeded in everya thing she has undertaken. The Admiralty paddle yacht Enchantress, Master Commander Petley, has been docked at Portsmouth to clean copper, examine valves, &c. Communications have passed between the Admi ralty and naval authorities at Portsmouth dockyard relative to a proposed embarkation of troops at that port on board three of her Majesty's ships, for ser vice out of England. The ships named are the Aurora screw frigate, 35, 400 horse power, Capt. Sir F. L. M'Clintock ; the Gladiator, 6, paddle, 430 horse power, Capt. F. H. Short, and the Geyser, 6, paddle, 280 horso power, Commander A. T. Thrupp. It is stated that the 69th Rifles, now stationed at the Tower, is the regiment which is to embark, and that it will leave about the 6th pros. The whole of the officers and men of the Ro: - al Engineers now at headquarters, Chatham, were yes terday drawn up on the parade-ground at B rompton barracks, for the purpose of hearing promulgated the finding and sentence of a district court-martial, te E. trial of Sapper Williamwhichrece W atk in s, ntly ter ate its of sitting, for h the Royal neere, onaseries of o offences. thences The. prisoner, who is incorrigible, broke o barracks in which ng h l e was confined, and, on being arrested, endeavoured to get possession of the sword of one of the escort, and actually succeeded in disarming him. On being secured he destroyed every pane of glass in the guard-room. When brought out before the corps to hear his sentence read he presented a disgraceful appearance, most of the unilorm being in tatters, trom his attempts to tear his clothes to pieces. Although he has been but a comparatively short time in the Royal Engineers, he has been several times tried by court-martial,and he has scarcely ever done a day's duty, his object being to be dismissed from the service. The Court sentenced him to three months' imprisonment in Fort Clarence military prison, Rochester, and to be placed under stoppages until the cost of the property he destroyed has been made good. From the general Royal Engineers good character of the men composing the corps of the trial of such a determined character as the pri m soner is exceedingly rare.
