SECRETARY (FRO TEM.)
Frederick Wilkins, Esp.

The Company is formed as an auxiliary to the Great
Financial Associations recently established.
It is not the province of these Institutions to carry out
the public works contemplated in the concessions-they ob-
tain. They are therefore compelled to seek the co-opera-
tion of contractors whose capital and position offer an
tun-
deniable guarantee for the completion of the works,
relieving the financial associations of that responsibility.
The constantly increasing scale on which public works of
all kinds are carried out, and the immense capital involved,
place them beyond the reach of individual contractors un-
less supported by joint-stock enterprise.
This Oompany has, therefore, been formed far
works,
the pur-
pose of undertaking the execution of great public
and arrangements have been entered into with well known
contractors, by which contracts to the amount of £11,000,000
sterling will be turned over to the Company.
Among other contracts handed over to
ral R a the Company is
that for the construction of the European Centilway,
Which has been secured on favourable terms, and will be
commenced forthwith.
The active services of an eminent Contractor, whose busi-
ness has been secured, will be retained to execute the work
n terms highly advantageous to the Company, he retaining
'o
a large interest in the Company by receiving payment for
the transfer of his contracts in Shares with £5 only credited
thereon.
It is well known that many undertakings of great com-
mercial value have hitherto remained in abeyance for want
of Contractors who can command the necessary resources to
ensure their completion. This Company, combining
the in-
fluence of a large subscribed capital, extensive financial co-
operations at home and abroad, with administrative experi-
ence and ability, will secure such an amount of confidence
en the part of governments, public bodies, and the great
financial institutions, as will enable it to command an ex-
tensive business on favourable terms.
Prospectuses, with forms of application, may be obtained
at the Offices of the Company, also from the Brokers, Soli-
citors, and Bankers.
In the event of no allotment being made the deposits will
be returned in full. Should a less number of shares be
allotted than are applied for, the deposits will be made
available towards the payment on allotment, and
balance, if any, returned to the applicant.

PROSPECTUS.
This company has been formed with the view of
.develop-
ing the agricultural, manufacturing, commercial, and
mineral resources of Ireland, and providing forhthat
tco.ubnttry
those pecuniary facilities which have so muc con ! ued
to the advancement and prosperity of the other portions of
the United Kingdom.
It is proposed that this company should act—
It is
As a Finance Company,_for negotiating and making
advances upon approved real and p iii•sobnal securities, and if
necessary the using and dealing ine the same. The taking
contracts for railways or other works ; the receiving moneys
on deposit, and generally transacting financial business as
principal or agent.
2dly, As a Land Credit Company, for buying, selling,
making advances on, and dealing interests
in real propert of all
descriptions and tenures, and of all estates and
therein, including rho erection of buildings
thereon, and
improving, or repairing the same.
for reclaiming,
3dly. As a Land Improvement Company,
and construct.
all wo
draining, and improving lands, and making
ing roads, and executing rks ; and, either as principal
or agent, making estimates and entering into contracts for
the same.
4thly. As agent, by affording facilities for the association
of capitalists desirous of taking a limited interest in remu-
nerative undertakings of a local character, either privately
or by introducing them to the public.
The wet and waste lands of Ireland amount to more than
6,000,C09 acres, affording a fruaul fiel rhe employment
of capital by reclamation and drainage. Capital can also
be profitably employed in making advances on land or
other property with the Landed Estates Court and other
experienced
good titles.
The want of this association has been long
by those most competent to form a sound judgment on such
a question; and it is generally admitted that the proper time
has arrived when such an undertaking can be successfully
carried out.
The articles of association may be seen at the solicitors
of the company. In the event of no allotment being made
the deposits will be returned in full. Should a less number
of shares be allotted than are applied for, the deposits will
be made available towards the payment on allotment, and
the balance, if any, returned to the applicant.
Prospectuses and forms of application for shares in the
form annexed to the prospectus, may be obtained at the
bankers, brokers, solicitors, and of Messrs, U. H, and A.

A. J. BAYLIS, Esq., the solicitor to the commission, re-
ported that he had made inquiries into the circumstances
under which a quantity of diseased meat was recently con-
demned as unfit for human food,which was s nt to London.
The meat in question was part of a cow which had been
suffering from a cancer in tho lea, and had been sold to a
person in the country who killed it, and sent it to a sales-
man in Newgate-market.
The solicitor was instruc'ed to take proceedings to bring
the guilty parties to justice.
Mr. BAYLIS reported to the oourt another instance of a
seizure by one of the inspectors of the commission of a num
ber of carcasses of sheep, of which 11 were more or less
diseased. The meat was condemned by Alderman Mechi,
who directed the case to be reported to the Commissioners
of Sewers, with a view to further proceedings being taken.

The Court instructed the solicitor to make further in
quiries into the case, and if advisable to take the necessary
legal proceedings against the sender of the meat to London.
Dr. LETHEBY, the medical officer of health, presented his
weekly report on the sanatory condition of the City. Three
hundred and forty-two houses had been visited by the in-
spectors, and he submitted a list of 171 places for sanatory
improvement. The markets and slaughter-houses had been
duly inspected during the week, and the officers had con-
demned 4,6451b5. of meat unfit for human food. It consisted
of 10 sheep, one calf, 33 quarters of beef, and 44 joints of
meat. 2,5201b5. were diseased, 8001bs. were putrid, and 725
lbs. were from animals that had died from accident or dis-
ease. The mortality returns for the week are a little below
the average for the season. Last week the number of
deaths was 54, the average for the corresponding week of
the last eight years being 60. Twenty-ono of the deaths
were among children of leas than five years of age, and 10
among persons of GO and upwards. The chief causes of
death were as follows :—Phthisis 10, mesenteric disease 2,
bydrocephalus2, pneumonia 5, bronchitis 6, continued fever,
small-pox 3, whooping cough 3, measles 2, and diarrhoea 1,
making together 14 deaths from tubercular diseases, 11 from
inflammatory affections of the lungs, and 11 from diseases
of a zymotic character. Sixty-five births were registered,
namely, 26 boys and 39 girls.
Dr. LETREBY further reported that the illuminating
power of the gas supplied to the City during the week had
on the average been above the requirements of the act of
Parliament; but upon one occasion the power of the City
Company's gas, and once the Great Central was under the
standard. Tho properties of sulphur had, except in the case
of the Chartered Company, been in excess of that sanctioned
by Parliament,
Some other business was disposed of, and the commis-
sioners adjourned.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE,

NEWMARKET FIRST SPRING ! MEETING.
THE TWO THOUSAND GUINEAS DAY.
Graced by the presence of Royalty, with weather which
in itself was a keen enjoyment, and an attendance of
the general public, in addition to the habitues of the place,
as large probably as Newmarket has ever known, the great
Spring event, only yielding in importance to the Derby,
has come off this year with unusual eclat.
" The Guineas," always the occasion of Newmarket's
gayest and most crowded gathering—the first foreshadow-
ing of a solution to the Derby mystery—boasted on this
occasion the largest entry on record, and with the propor-
tionate value of the stakes, of course, raised a still greater
interest in turf circles. In common with the other Spring
events, as we have before had occasion to remark, it has
been affected by the general languid tone of the market,
but within the last two or three weeks speculation has been
much brisker. The advent of General Peel and Copen-
hagen into the betting has led to some heavy wagering, and,
combined with the temporary retirement of Paris, and an
occasional hostile demonstration against the French mare
—whose position, however, has never been materially
shaken—a much-wanted impetus has been given to the
state of affairs.
The Two Thousand is generally noticeable for some of
those mysterious movements in the betting suggestive of
" corpses," " dead ones," and other names of evil augury.
Paris has this year been the animal operated up at. Sup
posed to have been knocked out during the Craven met t-
Mg, symptoms of a revival have been current the last day
or two, until the horsy which just before dinner last even-
ing was at 12 to 1 found no one bold enough to offer more
than 5 at 10 30 p.m.
The London 92ecial was loaded, and the various excursion
trains brought crowds such as Newmarket has rarely seen.
Thel.....er to rho heath. iv the oedestri.om ae leasto-ww-...
work of peril, for the horsemen, and they were legion, were
most Cossack-like in the irregularity of their charges ,
while an occasional smashed panel and the confusion con-
sequent thereon gave au Epsom character to the throng.
The Prince of Wales arrived at the commencement of
the day's sport, and was allowed, we are happy to say, to
enjoy it unmolested by the too obtrusive loyalty of his future
suljects. But comparatively little attention was paid to the
events which preceded the race for the Two Thousand, and
as the time drew near the excitement was immense. Fille
de l'Air maintained her position as first favourite General
Peel la as backed with great spirit and confidence at 7 to 2.
They got away pretty punctually at a good start : as they
approached the bushes it was evident the race was over,
General Peel, pulling double, came up the hill, followed by
Paris, Hollyfox, and Historian, and, though Fordham made
strenuous efforts to reach him, Lord Glasgow's colours were
borne past the chair amid tremendous cheering by a clear
length.

The latter made the running at a slow pace, followed by
the favourite and Lord in Waiting to the turn of the lands,
where the three joined issue, and ran abreast to the side of
the old Duke's stand, where Lord in Waiting went in ad-
vance and won cleverly by half a length, a length and half
separating the second and third.

Vesta, in company with Sante Ruisseau and Sphynx f,
made play into the cords, where the French representative
came out, and won very cleverly by a length, twice that
distance separating the record and third. The others passed
the post as placed by the judge at wide intervals, the
favourite, who was loft at the post, being a long way in the
rear. An objection was raised by Lord Westmoreland to
the winner on the ground of her number not being placed
on the telegraph.

After taking their preliminary cantors, they joined the
starter, who despatched them from the post at the first
attempt to an admirable start. Acolyte, on the lower side,
after running a few strides, appeared with a slight

closely followed by Master Richard and his stable comp
Copenhagen, and on their right by General Peel, Hollyfox,
and Historian, Paris lying by himself, wide of the lot, on
the upper ground, File de r Air and Sir Roger heading the

slightly in advance of Master Richard and Paris, close up
with whom came Hollyfox and Historian. Copenhagen,
when fairly over the hill, dropped back and disappeared
from the front, followed in a few strides further by the fa-
vourite, Sir Roger, and Acolyte. As they descended the
hill Fordham drew towards the leader, and on reaching the
Abingdon Mile bottom the four placed appeared nearly in
a line, but running wide to the cords, where General Peel
was indulged with a loose rein and immediately quitted his
horses, and with Paris finished the race home, Lord Glas-
gow's colours being landed the winner by a length, a similar
distance separated the second and third, and a neck between
the third and fourth, Planet, Master Richard, and Aco-

PARIS SPRING MEETING.
Of the five events comprised in the card on Monday two
may be said to have produced no race at all. The entries
for each of those events—the Prix Principal and the Prix
Imperial—contained a hone so immeasurably superior to
the rest, that the majority of the owners of the remainder
appeared to prefer not starting their horses to encountering
certain defeat. For the Prix Principal, of the 12 horses co-
loured on the card three only came to the post—Soumise,
on which 3 to 1 was laid, carrying Count do Lagrange's
colours, first passing the winning post for the third time this
season. The Prix Imperial produced even a smaller field, the
race being reduced to a match tetween the same owner's Stra-
della and Mr. Carter's Nobility, and the long odds of 10 to 1
laid in favour of the former showed, as was proved to he cor-
rect by the result, that her adversary's chance was small.
Tho other events were a selling race, which was cleverly
won by the Duke do Morny's Batberousse, a Cossack colt,
one of the French Derby lot. The winner was taken by
Baron du Mesuil for 7,101 f, and the purchase will not im-
probably turn out a profitable ono. The Prix Biennial ; ro.
duced a lot of 10 3-yr•olds, Nepto turning the tables on
Gedeon, to which mho ran second on Sunday last. In the
present instance the places were reversed, Gedeon coming in
