PROSPECTUS.
The Directors having received the support of eminent
foreign capitalists, and the 0,)• operation of many of the lead-
ing firms incountry connected with public works, are
already in a positron to announce that they have secured a
business which will of itself yield a large return on the capital,
without reckoning the probable profit which they will also
derive from the further operations they have in view.
The spirit of enterprise which has now manifested itself in
foreign countries, with the encouragement given by the
various Governments to the construction of works of publi ;
uti:lty, leave no doubt th it there is still ample scape for an
undertaking of this nature. Having secured not only the
influence of those connected with banking establishments in
many of the principal cities of the continent, but the acquisi-
tion of business, which will form the basis of immediate
profitable transactions, the Dit ectors have no hesitation in
introducing this Association to the public.
The general objects of this company are the same as those
of other compan es of a kindred nature which have been
lately started in this Country, and which, by the judicious
employment of capital, h ye been enabled to secure for the
shareholders such large dividends.
The company will negotiate :-
1. Loans and concessions for railways, and other public
works abroad.
2. Th y will advance m^ney on approved securities, as well
as purchase and negotiate the same upon commission.
3. They will lend money to contractors of position and
responsibility, and facilitate the construction of important
public works.
No promotion-money will be paid, and the amount of the
Directors' remuneration will depend upon the profits made.
With the view to ex' ended operations upon the continent,
the Directors are authorised to publish the names of the fol-
lowing Bankers, as the correspondents of the Company:—
Vienna Austrian Credit Institute.
Berlin Joseph Jacques, Banker.
Hamburg The Brunswick Bank.
Leipsi3 Heinr Kustner and Co.

TlMES.—There could be but one fate for the
motion of Mr. Osborne on the affairs of Denmark
last night. His theories were equally unpalatable
to the Government which has befriended Denmark
peacefully, and the Opposition which has half in-
timated its desire for sterner measures. His cen-
sures were directed against a Treaty signed by tne
Foreign Secretary of Lord Derby, and now sup-
ported by the Government of Lord Derby's oppo-
nents. If Mr. Osborne is right, then Lord Pal-
merston is in the wrong. No wonder, then, it was
unanimously agreed that his motion ehould not be
put; so that the Conference will commence its sit-
tings to-day without any opinion having been ex-
pressed by the House of Commons against the
weaker party in the present war. List night the
House of Commons heard a recapitulation of the ar-
guments which have been familiar for some years
to the few students of foreign politics, and which
have been more generally made known by the dis-
cussions of the last five months. Mr. ()Anne re-
peats with perfect accuracy all that the Germans
have advanced on the subject, and the most learned
patriots in the Frankfort Diet could not expect an
Englishman to be more completely acquainted with
their own side of the question. When we say
further that Mr Osborne spoke, as usual, admi-
rably, and that his information was laid before the
house with all the advantages of oratory, it may
be taken for granted that the German case has not
suffered for want of an advocate in England. But,
as far as any practical result is concerned, this
able speech might as well be left unspoken. All that
the speaker told the house is known ; much of it is
admitted to be true by those who have upheld the
rights of Denmark. The wisdom or imprudence of
the London Treaty, the right of the late King of
Denmark to agree to the succession of the Glucks-
burgs without the assent of the Estates of the
Duchies, the precise nature of those Estates and their
legal competence to decide a question of succession,
the conduct of the late King in respect to the stipu-
lations of 1851-2, the character of the Danish rule
iu the Duchies, the alleged grievances of the people,
the language question, the schoolmaster question,
the free press question, are all matters on which the
best friends of Denmark are willing to admit that
there is a great deal to be said on both aides.
What they have asserted, and what the public feel-
ing of Europe has confirmed, is that a mere ques-
tion of succession and mere difficulties of adminis-
tration incidental to all frontier and bilingnal dis-
tricts are not such as will justify the German Powers
in using their strength to dismember an ancient
Monarchy which they have solemnly pledged them-
selves to support. Mr. Osberne's invectives are
first directed against the Treaty of 1852. Now,
this Treaty we do not care to defend as to its main
principles. We do not think that the possession by
Denmark of a province more or less can affect the
peace of Europe or the balance of power. We be-
lieve it would have been a better arrangement it
Schleswig had been given to Denmark completely,
and Holstein completely severed from it, according
to the views of the " Eider Danes." Though Ger-
many would not assent to any such scheme now,
after the wrangling of the last 12 years and the recent
victories, it might not have been difficult to make
such a settlement at the time of the Treaty of Lon-
don; and the Sehleswigers, no longer exposed to
the solicitations of the Southern Duchy, would have
ceased to be offended by the presence in the pulpit of
a Danish preacher whom they understood just as
well as if he addressed them in German. Another
possible plan would have been to abolish the Danish
Monarchy altogether. The union of the three Scan-
dinavian kingdoms would have been undoubtedly a
benefit to Europe, and, if it had been accomplished,
Schleswig-Holstein might have been left to what-
ever political happiness it might find as a fifth-rate
State of the German Confederations. This, how-
ever, would have been a more difficult arrangement,
as not only Royal interests, but national pride and
some remains of national rivalry would have made
Denmark unwilling to merge its individual exist-
ence in the Scandinavian unity. But to discuss these
by bygone possibilities is, we feel, the most useless
kind of criticism after the event. The politicians of
1852 acted according to the state of Europe at that
time, and the opinions prevalent at the most power-
ful Courts. The Duchies had a short time before
been agitated by an unhappy war, which had ended
in the overtLeJw of the revolutionary at my, and the
restoration of the King's authority by force. The
memory of these events, and the uncertainty of the
future owing to the want of a direct heir to the
throne, retarded a return to political quiet, and when
Frederick a second time proposed his scheme for a
change in the succession it was received w ith favour
not only by neutral Powers, but even by Prussia
and Austria and the larger number of the minor
German States. On the whole, we think there
is no reason to quarrel with the resolution at which
they, and in fact all the European Powers, arrived.
There might have been a better settlement, but the
Treaty of 1852 was not a bad one. The theory of
race might have been satisfied by one possible
arrangement ; a better frontier might have been the
result of ano.lier ; but the very led that nothing
else was proposed, and that both friends and ene-
mies accepted the principle of the Treaty, is suffi-
cient proof that it was founded on good sense and
answered the needs of the timo.
HERALD.—Thera is another sick man in Europe,
and his name is Garibaldi. That is, he is officially
sick, diplomatically indisposed. But physically
and literally he refuses to be unwell. He insists
upon it that he neither wants pbytie nor advice.
His own physician aids and abets him in this pecu-
liar obstinacy. Dr. Basile asserts that the general's
health is " perfectly satisfactory," and that his
wound " no longer requires surgical care." Yet the
general is announced to leave England on Friday
next,, flying from our shores as if from the pesti-
lence, speeding to Caprera to save his very life !
If Dr.' Basile is right in his opinion, why is Geri,
baldi's visit thus abruptly terminated ? An expla-
nation is offered by the assertion that the British
Government has compromised itself by sharing in
the Garibaldian demonstrations, arid has thus found
it necessary to throw the general overboard, like
another Jonah, in order to avoid farther complica-
tions with foreign Powers. It is broadly stated
that Garibaldi leaves our shores at the instigation
of the Palmeretenian Cabinet. Of course such a
request would not be made officially. It might
take the form of a friendly suggestion ; but it has
been stated, on the authority of the general him-
self, that it is in some such way as this that he is
induced to curtail his welcome visit. On the con-
trary, Lord Palmerston and the E irl of Clarendon
deny the entire assertion. The latter assures the
country that the Emperor of the French has ex-
pressed no annoyance at Garibaldi's reception, and
Lord Palmerston disavows any act on the part of
the Government to induce Garibaldi to quit the
kingdom. Thus we are left without any solution
to what is really a very vexatious kind of mys-
tery. If we believe Dr. Basile, if we believe
what Garibaldi is declared to have said of him-
self only yesterday morning, the state of his
health is not the reason why he leaves England
in less than three weeks after bis arrival. Then
what is the real occasion of so strange an
incident ? Garibaldi is neither whimsical nor
passionate. He acts with reason and judgment,
though with ardour and enthusiasm. Has he any
deep design of his own ? Is he about to swoop down
on Venetia, or to scale the walls of Rome? If so,
why does he not restrain his physician from bruit-
ing abroad the fact that ill-health has nothing to do
with his sudden flight? If Garibaldi's coming was
a mystery, hie going is tenfold more so. Has he
been imposed upon? Has some audacious underling
appeared before him as an agent of the Government,
and uttered unauthorised requests in the name of
the British Cabinet ? There is obviously something
to be explained. There is deception, or delusion, or
misapprehension somewhere. That the health of
3aribaldi is affected by the fatigue and excitement
of his English reception there can be little doubt.
We say this with all due respect to his worthy phy-
sician, Dr. Basile. Still more clearly do we appre-
hend the risk which besets the wounded soldier in
uader'ilting his triumphal progress through the pro-
vinces, No great harm may yet have been inflicted,
but still there may be nes en for interposing some
respite in the round of interviews and demonstra-
tions to which the distinguished Italian is subjected,
So far we egree with Dr. Fergusson. But it is not
so clear that the general must necessarily leave
England and return forthwith to Ceptera. The sud-
denness of this departure is something astounding.
It is as though " sumo well-graced actor,'' in the
midst of a scene which riveted every eye and en-
tranced every heart, should drop through a trap-
door in the stage and suddenly dis ippear with an
unfinished harangue yet quivering upon his lips,
We are told in this instance that the trap-door is
opened by a doctor; but one who has caught a glimpse
behind the scenes tells us that it is a statesman, and
not a doctor who lets down the trap. If Ole be se,
who is he ? What " minion from tba Exchequer"
have we here ? As surely as there is no Effect without
a cause, Garabaldi does not move without a mo-
tive. Some power is at work, some undercurrent,
whioh the public sentiment will demand to have laid
. bare. There is a remarkable unanimity on the part

of Government organs end Ministerial speakers in
attributing Garibaldi's departure to simp►e conside-
rations of health. But supposing the General to
be unwell, or in danger of becoming so—the latter
being an especially possible event—is there no me-
dium between his present round of ceaseless activity
and the utter seclusion of Caprera ? Are there no
hermitages in Great Britain, that the weary veteran
must be packed off to his lonely isle, to listen once
more to the bleating of his goats and the murmur
of the waves? There is something altogether ano-
malous in the aspect which Garibaldi now presents
before the eyes of the world, and for his own sake
it is needful that some further explanation should
be forthcoming. We are certain that when the
truth is clearly set forth the facts will redound to
the honour of the great chieftain. At present we
are looking at our luminary through a fog, and we
invoke a healthful breeze to clear away the haze
which for the present baffles penetration.
