This Company being now completely registered, the Directors take the earliest opportunity of laying before the Shareholders a statement of its progress and prospects. It may be confidently asserted that no Company was ever brought before the public with equal prospect of speedy and successful results. The prompt assistance afforded by the Shareholders to the Direc tors, and the perfect confidence in the management displayed by them, have enabled the Directors to take such steps as must ensure an enormous dividend within a few months. Sir Henry Huntley, the resident Director in California, has been in that country five month,, and the course adopted by the Directors for carr tug out this enterprise results from the experience obtained by him during that period. The instructions given to Sir Henry Hunt ey were, in effect, that he should make every possible inquiry relative to the state of the country, the tenure of land, the com parative merits of the different quartz veins in the several districts of California, and after mature deliberation to advise the Directors to their best course of proceeding, and to take such measures as would enable them to carry out his views as speedily as possible. Following these instructions, he has secured far the benefit of the Company, sufficient lands for all mining purposes; but he is clearly of opinion, that for the present, at least, it is not desirable to under take mining operations, • but to crush and amalgamate quartz to be supplied by those who are possessed of mines, and have raised the quartz. With the assistance of some gentlemen of great experience in geology and mining matters, he has inspected and tested a great variety of veins in the Mariposa, Nevada, Grass Valley, and other districts, and has come to the conclusion, upon sound .reasons, that the vicinity of Grass Valley and Nevada City, is that which affords the greatest advantages for car rying on our enterprise. He has, therefore, entered into an agree ment with some American gentlemen, who have formed a company, and have opened, and, to a eonsiderable extent, worked a vein of quartz, di,tant about three miles from Grass Valley and Nevada City, and about thirty miles from Sacramento City, to 'crush and amalgamate the quartz to be raised from the mine opened by them. By means of machinery, he has already cru bed and amalgamated considerable quantities of the quartz sup plied him from this mine; and the r. suit of his operations has been to satisfy himself that the vein is of a full average richness, and that the locality oilers many important advantages in the way of water, fuel, means of transit, &c., &c. He has, thre fore, entered into a forma l a g reement with that ComPany,hem with which, e in a few words, amounts to t his : he is to be supplied by tas much quartz as his machinery shall be found capable of crushing; the quartz is to be deposited at the mills free of expense ; ha is to crush and amalgamate it at his own expense, and the g Id produced is to be divided equally between the owners of the vein and our Company. Formal and legal agreements for carrying cut the above arrangement fairly arid honestly, and without any copartnership, have been entered into. of Steamrt-enz a gi day nes and machinery estimated to cru sh about thirty tons qua , with fends sufficient for putting it in motion, have been placed under the control of Sir Henry Huntley; and, unless some unexpected delay has arisen, the machinery is now actually at work, and a return will be made about Christmas next. For the satisfaction of the existing shareholders of this Company, and without wishing, in any manner, to deteriorate from the merits of other Companies, the Directors are desirous of calling attention to some of the more pro minent advantages possessed, by this Com pany over others now in the field. Shareholders in other Companies in must mainly rely upon repo rts sent over by persons d selling the mine; we rely upon the reports of our own resident Director and his practical assistant. on the spot, whose only interest is to give us facts. The Directors of other Companies generally base the estimate of the value of their mine 'upon calculations founded on experiments upon a few pieces of specimen quartz, sent over to this country for the express purpose of advertising the commodity offered for sale to the British public ; we found our calculations upon experiments tried, during several weeks, on quartz raised from the mine, and crushed and amalgamated by our own Superintendent, and with our r own machinery and app aratus. Other Companies prOPose incur the expense and risk of carrying out mining operations !yen their vein, before the quartz arrives at their mill, and, should their labours prove successful, they must then pay out of their profits large per-centages for obtaining their leases, and larger oyal s ties to their lessors ; whereas we have secured as much quartz a our machinery is capable of crushing, the title to whic rise as secure as re at that of any other c om p an y , unfettered by any p-ta royalty. The half of the produce to be paid by this Company to the parties who supply us, free of expense, with the quartz, being in fact merely equivalent to the dividend upon the outlay of capital ex pended in raising the quartz, and lodging it at the mill. All the new companies, unlike this, must be a considerable time before their arrangements and machinery can be ready for carrying out their schemes—this Company alone is actually at work. The paid-up capital of the Company will not exceed 20,0001. An almt,st certain estimate of the produce of our machinery can be formed, and, from the calculations matte, the Directors confidently anticipate being able even at the most moderate estimate, to afford a dividend of '2OO per cent., at the least, within the next twelve months. According to the data furnished to us, the quartz which we are now working yields upon an average 42. per pound, or 1/. 17s. 4d. per cwt., or 371. Gs. Sd. per ton; and, as we can crush and amalgamate at least 20 tons per diem, that would amount to 7461. 13e. 42., or 3731. Gs. Bd. per diem as the share of this Company. By the peculiar arrangements this Company has made, based" upon practical experience, the economy in working expenses must necessarily be such as to render the current -outlay most trifling. In case circumstances should induce the Directors to alter the system now adopted, and lead them to undertake milling operations of their own, arrangements have teen made securing four distinct sites, most carefully selected for their eligibility for mining pur poses, and Sir Henry Huntley has on the spot Cornish miners who went out with him, and who have voluntarily retendered him their services. The gentlemen whe formed the Provisional Committee of this Company, have added to their number several gentlemen possessing the acquaintance and entire confidence of a very large body of Shareholders in the provincial districts. To add such men to the fi shed an was due to those Shareholders who have in fact estab lished and nobly supported this Company. Measures will be taken for further augmenting the Directory, and a Special General Meet ing of the Shareholders will be convened fur the middle of January. • In conclusion, the Directors beg to offer the ve ir rece s i bet ved , thanks to the Sh are h o lders for the unifor m support they ha and they pledge themselves tbat the affairs of this Comeany shall be con ducted with the most rigid economy, and with the sole view of for , warding the interest of the Shareholders. The Directors beg to call the attention of Shareholders particularly ! to the fact that, from the system adopted by this Company, it can not be affected by the question now agitated between the holders of leases and Colonel Fremont or his agents. The district selected for the operations of this Company is far removed from the tract claimed by Colonel Fremont. The difficulty arising out of the many points now raised relative to the tenure of land under leases, h d a b e control n ontrol long known to and was maturely co nsidered by those having t of the affairs of this Company, and was one of the reasons which in duced them to 'ensue for the present the course they have, and not to incur certain heavy expenses with doubtful resultsof the prudence The Directors trust that Shareholde rs will approve of the course they have adopted. P ro spectuses may be had upon application at the offices of the Company. PRESERVED SOUPS, &c. PRIZE MEDAL GREAT EXHIBITION, 1851.

THE DETERMINED ATTACK ON LOUIS NAPOLEON.—Thcre is no question but that a crisis is no w near at hand, and that one of three important parties will shortly be settled as dominant in France—the Red Republicans, the Legitima tists, or the friends of the present Government. The attacks made in the Assembly on the Government of Louis Napoleon have been all but successful, and yet have signally failed ; but the last and worst attack was when the majority sought, by a Bill which has been sleeping nearly two years, to enpower the Assembly to impeach the President, the Ministry, and whoever else should favour the re election of Louis Napoleon. While, however, the French people are at loggerheads about clothing the Assembly or the Government with power, we on this side of the Channel are thinking about clothing ourselves ; and the best opportunity in the world presents itself, for the unique stock of Messrs. Ern and SON is more novel, more extensive, and more eleg than at any former season. Each morning their extensive warehouses are crammed with new and elegant costume, however reduced the quantity may be by night. Their Winter Clothing supasses everything of the kind to be found in Europe, and Messrs. E. MOSES and SON are only anxious that the public may visit their display at the Monarch Mart in Aldgate and the Minories, or their magnificently fitted-up West-end Branch Establishment in New Oxford-street, corner of Liart-street, for nothing but seeing will give anybody an idea of the elegance, quality, style, durability, and cheapness of every article they make.

RUSSEL Yesterday a deputation from the committee Manchester and Salford Borough Education Bill by appointment upon Lord John Russell, in Dc street, for the purpose of submitting to his Lore, draft of the Bill which they intend to introduce in] liameet in the ensuing session, accompanied by /4 explanations of the general features of the schem deputation consisted of Messrs. Wm. Entwisle man), Samuel Fletcher (vice-chairman), Olivese wood (treasurer), John Peel (hon. secretary), th Canon Clifton, and the Rev. George Osborne (WE minister). The deputation having been introdu the Noble Premier, , Mr. ENTWISLE said--We wait, as a dOplItIltill)D, on your Lordship, from Manchester, es to the state of education there; and we were desirous that gentlemen of all religious denominations should attend hero; but I re - gret that acme of the member ap pointed have not b een a bl e to attend. I iap peared to several ge n tl emen i n Lancashire proper to make an effort to come to y our L ordship to pro ose a system which should embra ce p ersons of all re igious persuasions. In consequ ence , a numerous meetly e was held in December la s t f or th e p urpose of promoti that object, and a committ ee was f orme d i n consequen , and the committee, after several meetings, came to th 4 reso lution that a Bill should be prepared, to be submilt 3 ed to the Government. Th a t Bill wou ld not interfer with the existing schools receiving a share of the educational grant; but they propose that where schools are stab fished not now recei v i ng a s h are o f t h e G over ment I grant, they should re ce i ve a s h are o f t h e grant, i they were willing to do so, on th e con di t i on t h at t h ey h ould be subject to the Government inspector, and that cer tain[ contribution of th e now rate proposed for edu tion to be levied on th e i n h a bi tan t s s h ou l d b e devoted o new a schools. They propo se d f urt h er to • provid for new schools, a n d . t h at a portion of the Go vernment grant should b e g i ven to them, hat ever their religious persuasion should be. They were already iu possession of a large a ount for schools for Sunday scholars; but there is a con siderablo number falling off in the attendance, and there is consequently a very large vacant space, which we consider sufficient in point of space for the day schools, and therefore very little additional school-room would be necessary. Most of the schools would be built . by vo luntary subscripti ons; b ut i n the poorer districts' they wished for Government aid, and proposed to do tro by the Bill which they d es i re d t o b e su b mitted to the Le gislature. They desired to leave the management Of the schools in the management of district committees, *here it was necessary to make a rate for their support. In the Bill it was provided that there should be no creeds or formularies insisted upon. The Hon. Gentleman then entered into a lengthened detail of the clauses bf the Bill. In the two boroughs they had an absolut4 ma jority of the whole of the ratepayers in favour o the Bill, and the feeling of th e t owns o f M anc h ester an Sal fordt were with them ; and th e y h o p e d t h ey would, hen they came before Parliament, receive the support of the Government. Mr. SAMUEL FLETCHER said that, as a Dissent4r, he hailed with great satisfaction the measure which hip col league had just sketched to his Lordship. He remarked upon the improved feeling which now subsisted between the Churchmen and Dissenters of Salford and Manches ter, and pointed to this Bill as an evidence of their sin cere desire for friendly co-operation. Lord JOHN RUSSELL asked whether, supposing there was a deficiency of public schools in any district, ii was not intended that the new schools to be opened from the rate should be free schools, without any paymedt? The Rev. Canon CLIFTON replied that they would; but it was only on the failure of voluntary contributions that the rate would be brought in to the aid of the build ing of new schools. The Rev. Canon then declared his belief that, notwithstanding the fault which had been found with this scheme, be was not compromising,. but, on the contrary, upholding his priuoiple as a Churchman, in giving it his best support. Lord J. RUSSELL then said—With regard to the prin ciple of having a rate for the purpose of educatipn, I think that that rate would be a very useful and advan tageous thing, provided you could successfully surmount the difficulty in the way of all payers of the rate,;who are the inhabitants generally, being admitted to the benefit to be derived from th© payment of that rate; so that no person should be excluded on account of their religious convictions from participating in the advan tage, if they choose to take it, of the rate they pay. Whether you have successfully overcome that difficulty depends, first, on the provisions of your Bill, and next, on the feelings which:prevail in Manchester; and there fore I do not feel myself now quite competent to give any definite opinion on that point. But I should like to ask a few questions. With regard to the:Minutcs of council, it is quite clear they make provision for persons of all religious denominations, and therefore, as long as you aro supporting schools already so recognised, I think your course will be easy. But with regard to new schools, by providin g that no disti nc ti ve cree d or catechism shall bo taught, you remove, I think, any diffi• eultios that Protestant Dissenters might have to sup porting such a system. But then come the Roman Ca tholic Dissenters, who object not only to any creed or catechism, but to the reading of any lessons from the authorised version of the Holy Scriptures, and I should like to know how you would meet that objection. Mr. ENTWISLE admitted that the stipulation as to the reading of the authorised version of the Scripture's in the case of the now schools to be built to supply any de ficiency was considered to exclude the children of Roman Catholics, and had already been made a ground of complaint. There might appear to bo an inequality here, but then it was only the inequality in appearance, because it was perfectly well known to the Roman Ca tholics that, by admieieg their schools, now admissible under the minutes of Privy Council, to the benefits of the educational rate, they would practically derive a larger share of the rate than probably any other religious body in Manchester. His Lordship was aware that if the words " Holy Scriptures" were merely expressed in the Bill, they would not obviate the difficulty, because they would be legally taken to mean the authorised ver sion. [Lord John Russell nodded assent.] Several Roman Catholic clergymen had at first acted on their committee, and they went along with them up to a cer tain point, and then they seceded. It had been put to them whether they would allow the Douay version to be introduced; they said they would not bo bound to that any more than to any other; and therefore the com mittee found the only possible terms of giving any reli gious instruction in the new schools must be such as the Roman Catholics refused. Lord J. RUSSELL said ho undestood that any new schools hereafter rebuilt by any religious denomination whatever, and which came under the Minutes of Council, would be embraced in the proposed scheme. Mr. ENTWISLE said that any extension of the existing schools, under the minutes of council, and subject to the same regulations, would be, ipso facto, included in the Bill. Then, with regard to the Jew schools, the pro moters had no desire to exclude the Jewish persuasion; but as their case was already under the consideration of the Government, the difficulty would be solved for them by the Legislature itself. The Rev, Canon CLIFTON said he understood that the Jew schools were visited by the Government inspectors, which was some sort of recognition of them, and there fore they might on that ground come under the provi sions of this scheme. Sir G. GREY (who entered the room during the dis cussion) said he was not aware that the schools of the Jewish persuasion had been inspected by the Govern ment inspectors. The Rev. Canon CLIFTON said their names bed been published along with the other schools which had been inspected. Sir G. GREY said that some schools invited inspec tion, but that did not amount to their recognition. Lord J. RUSSELL then said—l am much obliged to you, gentlemen, for the information you have given us. Ido not know if there is any particular question that you wish to ask me; but I shall consider the Bill which you have submitted, and then communicate with you. Mr. ENTWISLE said they had no question to ask; but their only object was to be enabled to introduce their Bill in the manner most accordant with the views of the Government, and so as to be most likely to ensure for it the sanction of Parliament. They were fully prepared to carry on the contest in Manchester and Salford; but they thought it necessary to lay the subject before his Lordship, in order that, before the session had arrived, their Bill might be fairly deposited; because they were anxious to avoid any formal or technical difficulties which might, without their being aware of it, be likely to turn the Government and the Legislature against their measure; and therefore they thought they might fairly ask the consideration of the Government to be so shown to them as that they might be warned of any such rock on which they were likely to split. Mr. Entwisle then explained that there was a counter-scheme supported by the National Public School Association, which was advocated by Mr. Cobden and others, and stated that many of its adherents were not hostile to the Manchester and Salford scheme, but on the contrary wished it well; yet they had given up in des pair all attempts at combining all parties in any compre hensive plan embracing religious instruction. Lord JOHN RUSSELL then said—lf I understand, the general principles of your Bill are, first, that there should be a rate for schools ; secondly, that the management of that rate should be placed in the hands of persona who derive their power, in fact, fro m election by the ratepayers; thirdly, that there should be religious instruction, and not confined to secular eanoation only ; and in the fourth place, that, conjunction with that p r i nc ipl e, every endeavour' should in be made to combine persons of all religious persuasions in the benefits and advantages to ,be derived from schools. These are p r i nc i p l es with which I at these should be prepared to agree. Whether the difficulty, which we all see, has been s uccessfully got over, is a thing which the Government, of course, principles hut, so far as th e general pr• • ples go, I must consider; should be quite prepared to accede to them. Mr. ENTWISLE thanked his Lordshipfor iiis attention to the deputation, _ . him in and said they would not dots any longer. Lord J. RUSSELL—WeII, gentlemen, you are engaged in a very important matter, and I hope you will be suc cessful. Air. ENTWISLE—We have every encouragement to of the waited `ship a to Par kid voce k-.

" The deaths during the year ending 1850 were much under the num b er expected. It was reasonable, therefore, to suppose that ie the fllowing year they would have equalled or even exceeded the number expected ; and it is therefore satisfactory to find that the number of deaths in the present year, is still somewhat below that provided for by the Society's tables. " It is also a source of much satisfaction to the Directors to be enabled to state that the peculiar feature which originated with this Society, and which at the outset constituted its principal claim to public support—viz , the assurance of unsound lives the publicstrictly sc i e ntific and sound prin ciples, is fully appreciated by and that the experience of tea years has completely show business can be conducted with safety not only to the assured but to the assurers, The assurance of unsound lives is now very generally practised by other offices as well as this, but the principles upon which such busi ness is done are by no means uniform. In this office, however, the premiums are tabulated from data quite as accurate as those used for ordinary lives, whereas in other offices the premium is fixed without any accurate tables or data.

He then thanked the assemblage for their countenance, and compli mented the chairman of the directors, Mr. Manson, for the energetic assistance they had given the undertaking.

Phillips, of Whit more Park, near Coventry, the principal business was the reading of a letter from Lord Londesborougb, giving an interesting account of the opening and examination of various barrows and tumuli near Driffield, Yorkshire. As usual, skeletons in crouching positions were found, but only in ono or two instances accompanied by any objects of curiosity. One of these was a stone spear head, and another a singular drinking cup. It may he doubted whether the latter was of the Celtic period, be cause the body with which it was interred was enve loped in linen. In one place a tumulus was explored containing the remains of no fewer than ten or eleven skeletons; but if anything bad been buried with there it had disappeared, excepting an armlet of bone, fastened by two bronze pins, the beads of which were of gold. The traces of cremation were evident as regards bodies of the Roman period and subse quently. Mr. Caustic sent some brief remarks upon horn conks, which, in truth, are more common, and of a more recent date, than many persons imagined. Several ape cimens of the time of Queen Anne are known, and very old people can recollect them in use in remote rural dis :riots, such as some parts of Dorsetshire and Devonshire. Mr. E. B. Price forwarded to the secretary au account of two antique gravestones of an abbot, and of a merchant of the name of •Legge, belonging to the 15th century, and found in one of our old London churches. Mr. Wright produced a very remarkable manuscript, viz., the original diary of Patrick Ruthven, who was concerned in the Gowrie conppiracy, and who was living in London, and practising iu the double capacity of physician and astrologer, at the end of the reign of James L Only one or two extracts were read from it, and those not of much interest, the main purpose be i ng to identify the book as the property of Ruthven. Mr. R. Cole exhibited a money-changer's box, with scales and weights, of the time of James I. or Charles I. MURDER 1N SOMERSETSHIRE. BATII, DEC. 4,—The inquest upon the body of the poor fellow George Busb, brutally murdered near Pris ton, Somersetshire, as related in yesterday's Sun, was opened before It. Uphill, Esq., coroner for Somersetshire, yesterday, and, after some formal evidence adjourned till Thursday next. Mr. Hughes, the chief of the Bath police, and two of the inspectorii, have been indefatigable in their endea vours to trace the murderers, and have apprehended four persons on suspicion of being concerned in the crime. Mr. Simmonds, surgeon, on Wednesday examined the body of the deceased, when two indentations were dis covered on the back part of the head, apparently made by the forked end of a hammer, but on removing the scalp there was no fracture of the skull. The wound in the throat, and which must have caused speedy death, was jagged, as though several attempts had been made; and there is no doubt that the murder was committed with some rough-edged instrument—probably with a hook used for chopping wood. It seems probable, from the injury in the head, however, that the mardertirs first attempted to accomplish their purpose by other means, and failing, or being recognised, cut the poor fellow's throat. We learn that the deceased lately became possessed of some property bequeathed to him by his brother. lie had also 41. or 51. with him on the day he was murdero. George Flower, at whose house the deceased lodged, has been ill, and unable to work for some time, and depends upon his weekly pay from a sick club. He is also e%13 out patient of the Bath United Hospital, and was lodg ing in this city at the timo of the murder. His wile, however, knew of the money Bush had with him,and frdm observations made by her, and other circumstances which came under the knowledge of the police, they, on Wednesday night, apprehended her on suspicion, as well as a man named Jacob Windmill, her son in-law, and hie wife Harriet Windmill, and a man named Stephen Box, all of whom were said to be at her house together on the night of the murder. The four prisoners were this afternoon brought up be fore Mr. W. Long (Mayor of Bath), Captain Duff, R.N. and other county magistrates, at the office of the magic. trates for the Bath division of Somerset.

On the whole, however, they indicate great distru,t and timidity. No apprehensions are expressed of any immediate convulsion in financial or trading affairs, but there is an evident belief that a long period of uncer tainty has now to be passed through, and that every means should be taken so as to be prepared against even the most extraordinary possibilities. The balance of opinion seems to be that Louis Napoleon may succeed for the time in main taining his position, but that as everything must continue to depend upon the troops, the revival of commercial confi dence is out of the question. The unexpected rife which took place yesterday in the price of the Ilentcs, and which carried them to the point at which they stood before the violation of the Constitution, is accounted for by the s tat e' ment that large purchases were made for the purpo9e- doe "; also said that the brokers forced most of their clients to close their accounts, and as these parties baci ... b t eg sellers, there was consequently a large an 3° ;E i ,h a few days ug g a back.
