The circumstances under which subscriptions are now invited by this Company, to a further issue of capital, aro peculiarly favourable for investors, and present the strongest evidence of the sound and profitable character of the undertaking, to complete which an alditional outlay is required. The works already constructed have now entered upon their stage of revenue , and the y offer to capitalists not only here ayesayf e profitableconfirmatory of this al most im mediate prospect, that the portions of the works no w i n hand remaining to be exe cuted, consisting m ainl y of chan nels for the distribution of r inve s investment, ' n et;e long g o ; e n andw h which will, most assuredly, be it may be added, as the water, will necessarily be the easiest of construction, as well as the most productive, and will add materially to the percentage of returns on the whole outlay. By the contract it is expressly provided that the Com pany shall be paid for the water supplied for irrigation to the cultivators —not by the cultivators themselves —but by t h e Government of I n di a. Wi t h re f erence to this stipulation, it has been aanowledged by the Government that they alone are liable in respect to the non-payment for water supplied, so that the Company are released from all fear of liability to loss of any portion of their water-rate. The value of the foregoing arrangement can hardly be too highly prized, forming as it does a cer tain and safe guarantee of payment for every portion of the water supplied for irrigation. It has been determined by the Directors to limit, at any rate for the present, the expmditure to about £130,000 ier•annum, whereby they will be enabled to make all fu ture calls small in amount and at regular stated periods, not exceeding on the whole £2 per share during each year. Applications for Shares and Stock may now be made to the Company's Offices, 8 and 9, Queen -street-place, South wark-bridge, London, E.C. (whore a full Prospectus and Forms of Application may be had); but it is necessary that it should be understood that no application will bo considered unless a deposit of £1 on each share, or of ten pounds per cent. upon the amount of stock applied for, has been made either to the Bankers of the Company, Messrs.

Nothing could well commence more auspiciously than that gala week during which so many of us keep holiday on Epsom Downs. The recent train had penetrated the hard ground, freshened the herbage, and laid the dust. The latter, by the way, is, perhaps, a somewhat rash as sertion, which we may have to retract to-morrow, but for the present let it stand on record. There was that perfect combination of weather—a warm sun and a cooling,breeze —and, above and beyond all, there was just racing enough to interest and amuse, but not to fatigue. The attendance was about an average one for the first day, which generally comprises the business element alone- Shortly before the racing began the following rather curiously-worded notice was posted on the board :—" Sir Joseph Hawley declares to win with Rosicrucian or Green Sleeve, in preference to Blue Gown." As Sir Joseph has always declared Rosicrucian his best horse, or rather better than Blue Gown, this was done probably to assert hie own judgment over that of the public, who have persistently stuck to the latter horse, and have within the last few clays brought him into the position of second favourite. But his reign was not at an end, and his deposition did not improve his stable companion's position o as 100 to 6 could have been obtained about Rosicrucian immediately after the declara tion. The Craven Stakes looked a certainty on paper for Grimston, but, with the usual fortune attending Baron Rothschild's horses when he does not back them, King Alfred won very cleverly by half a length. Rarely have better -looking youngsters been seen in the paddock or at the post than the 19 who sported silk for the Woodcoto. Three or four could have been " sp)tted" by a tyro as looking race-horses all over —Wellington, Brother to Athena ; Belladrum, by Stockwell—Catherine Hayes ; a son of Tim Whiffler and Hermione ; Thirlostano, by Young Melbourne; and the Crucifixion filly. To further Sift the lot, perhaps Wellington and Belladrum bore off the palm for good looks, and the latter wan so cleverly that we are warranted in believing Mr. Merry's recent ill luck is going to have a turn. The little Crucifixion filly was favourite, and ran very gamely, but only got third. She did not seem to act well downhill. The Rous Stakes was an other turn-up for the fielders, as Landscape was not in it, and the three top weights finished one, two, three. Leonie squandered her field in the Heathcote, and the Reserved Lawn Stakes fell to Whitby. The Derby speculation was marked by the continued firmness of the Dauebury mare, the knocking-out of Spe culum, who went to the outer darkness of 30 to 1, the stationary position of Blue Gown, despite the declaration above-mentioned, and the little favour shown to Rosicru cian. With the great event so near, with the last utter ances of all the prophets recorded, and the public mind made up that Lady Elizabeth must win, we wait in patience for the morrow. It certainly does look as if the way was clear before her, and we should say it was the greatest of " morals," did wo not remember that this time last year we thought the same of Vauban, and to what point of the racing compass we turned could not perceive anything to beat him. What outsider is to drop from the clouds to morrow, to-morrow must show. Neither of Sir Jos. Haw ley's trio is now regarded with much favour ; Paul Jones is shaky; and Suffolk, despite King Alfred's success, has receded a little. It really looks as if Danebury and Ford ham were this year to be recouped for their many disap pointments.

The following Paragraphs are extracted from a despatch to the Secretary of State in Council , dated March 10,1 862 , recommending that th e a b ove pro j ec t should be given to a private company, Which despatch was signed by the late Lord Canning as G overnor-Genera l, an d by th e whole of the tohveeronrmisesnataslehCeeumn: viz.:— and that it would be good for "His Honour the Lieu enan t-G o vernor considers that it (the Soane Canal project) holds but bettor prospects than b o th the East India Irri ga ti on C om p an y an d for the coun try if the Company were t o a d o pt this instead of the o ther; but the projectors pr e f er th a t or i g inally selected by them. " We have long regarded this s c heme as one of all G others in India to which private capital should be invited. "There is this advantage in Government taking the initiative in planning the great works of the country, that they are so placed before -the public that they can be dis cussed in_ the light of local knowledge and experience. the oply drawback to doing this is the risk of misleading capitrifists and raising mistrust of such investments. au the present instance nu such risk need be appre hended, for there is evident throughout Colonel Dickens' roport a most conscientious endeavour to anticipate the maximum cost of the work." Also the following from a minute recordei by Sir P. P Grant, when Lieutenant-Governor of Bengal, viz.:— " Th e magnificent province of Behar, which would be admirably watered by Captain Dickens' projected canal from the Soane. The cost here would certainly be very much loss (than at Cuttack) and the returns may rea sonably be expected to be much more secure, because we know, as a f it et, , the value of irrigatio n i n B e h ar . Th e so il is bolter and the natural rainfall is less by half on an ave rage, and much l e ss certain in Behar than in Cuttack. The most valuable crops are not the rain crops in Behar, and for the most valuable crops there it is found by expe rience that expensive Well Irrigation pay; which has not been proved by experience •to be the general case in Orissa." The scheme of works to be executed has been tho roughly investigated and carefully re-planned on behalf of: the" Company, and particulars submitted to and ap proved by the Government, so that there will be no delay in Making preliminary surveys, plans, &c., all of which have been effected, and everything made ready for immediate constructive operations, a great advantage not possessed heretofore by any other undertaking of a like character, because the realisation of profits has been thus brought so much nearer. The capital has been divided into shares of £lO each, and stock in sums ranging from £lO upwards. Some shares have been already allotted in India. The share capital will be called up slowly, and so as, with the stock, to maintain an expenditure at the rate of about £130,000 per annum. £2 per share during each year .will be ample for this. Applications for shares may now be sent to the Com pany's Offices, 8 and 9, Queen - street-place, Southwark bridge, London, E.C., where a full prospectus and forms of application may be had ; but it is necessary that it should be understood that no application will be considered, un less a deposit of £1 on each share, or of 10 per cent. upon the amount of stock applied for, has been made either to the.

The run ning was taken up by Antias in close company with Onyx, Lo Saphir, Belladrum, and the Hermione colt, the latter lying on the inside. A length or so separated these from the Crucifixion filly, Tenedos, Flower Girl, Martyr, and Juanita on the right. They ran thus to the road, where the two loaders dropped away, leaving the Frenchman slightly in advance of the Hermione colt, Flower Girl, and the Crucifixion f to the half distance, when Bella drum came out, and taking a clear lead at the enclosure, won very easily by a couple of lengths. The Crucifixion filly, who was cannoned against by Le Saphir on crossing the road, finished third, three parts of a length in rear of her stable companion, Flower Girl. Tenedos was fourth, close up, Juanita fifth, the Hermione colt sixth, and Mar tyr next. The others were pulling in a laxly, as they passed the post, the last lot widely spread, comprising Little Nell, Onyx, Antias, Vanbrugh, Defeucier, Maid of Avenel, and Charon, the two last being beaten off a long way.

Half way in the distance Mr. Naylor's filly dropped back, and King Victor closing with the leader as they approached the stand, and drawing away a dozen strides from home, won a fair race by three parts of a length, a neck only seperating the second and third. Grey Stocking was fourth, Clemence was fifth, Historian sixth, Landscape seventh, and Vortigern next. The last three were Porter's Knot, the Faun, and the Skipper.
